Di Shifang buried his head in Lu Jiuque's shoulder, and his breath was as warm and lingering as melting her: "Shh, don't look back, let me hug you..."
A familiar breath penetrated into Lu Jiuque's heart. Although she had always believed that she would be safe, it was only at this moment that she completely softened.
She covered his hand with her hand, gently turned her head and kissed the top of his head, saying softly: "I'm back..."
"Um… "
He tightened his hold on her.
"Sorry, I came back late..."
"Um… "
"demon king… "
"Do not talk… "
He said in a low voice, feeling a little distressed and not daring to say more for fear of exposing his emotions and vulnerability through his words.
It turned out that he was so afraid of losing her, even thinking about it made him anxious, painful, and uneasy. If possible, he wanted to take her under his wings and protect her from being safe, happy, and carefree throughout her life.
But he couldn't, because he had to let her go through the ups and downs, let her endure hardships, and let her grow independently...
She is an eagle fighting in the sky, not a canary in a cage. He cannot restrain her because of his own selfish desires. This will only harm her. Even if he wishes, thinks, and thinks again, he must restrain himself for her. It is painful. But it’s so satisfying…
He estimated that he would be devoured by this little girl for the rest of his life.
Thinking of this, Di Shifang smiled helplessly and whispered in her ear: "Does the wound still hurt?"
His breath sprayed on the shell of her ear, itching. Lu Jiuque couldn't help but shrink his neck and shook his head quickly: "It doesn't hurt anymore... By the way, Aoshuang has woken up, but it will take time to fully regenerate. After half a year, Let's just come back. As for the thunder bead, I haven't been able to conquer it yet. I can't give it to you until it's completely conquered... It will definitely help your injury!"
She has been recovering in the thunder pool for the past three months. Although her recovery is slow, she has an unexpected surprise.
Even without deliberately practicing, she felt that she had broken through again, but she didn't know what level it was.
At the same time, her meridians and bones became stronger, and some of the thunder-type secret stones in her body were absorbed by her.
When Di Shifang saw Lu Jiuque's face turned red, and when he finally talked about Thunder Beads, his eyes couldn't stop being filled with joy, and his heart softened like spring water.
He couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips, and rubbed the side of his face against her ear and temples for a moment, then slowly let go of her. When he raised his eyes again, he was that young man with a calm demeanor and a noble demeanor again.
"Well, don't worry, my injuries will not recur in the sea of thunder."
Looking at his handsome and angry face, Lu Jiuque couldn't help but his heart beat faster. He took a step back and temporarily left his arms: "The Great Demon King... I... I want to go see Daxiang."
In the past three months, besides Aoshuang, Ni Xiangxiang was the person Lu Jiuque was most worried about.
After all, her face was covered in blood, and she was scared to think about it now. However, she felt Ni Xiangxiang's breath as soon as she arrived on the boat, which meant that Ni Xiangxiang was fine at this time, and Lu Jiuque breathed a sigh of relief.
"Huh? Okay..." Di Shifang said calmly, using his eyes to indicate to Lu Jiuque that the person she wanted to see was in the cabin, but the look in his eyes was a little subtle.
Lu Jiuque looked suspicious, pushed open the cabin and walked in. Ni Xiangxiang's anxious roar could be heard.
"Damn it! Didn't I just comb your tail?"
