Before the words were finished, with a “bang,” the pavilion door was blown open by a gust of wind, the pearl curtains clattering against each other, and Shen Jue appeared not far from You Jingyan in his silver-white soft boots.
Shen Jue said coldly, “Don’t even think about it.”
You Jingyan glanced at him sideways.
The two men stared at each other silently, sparks seemingly flying between their gazes, the air thick with tension, the atmosphere instantly becoming tense and on the verge of conflict.
You Jingyan pursed his lips, the tip of his sword pointing to the ground, the blood from slaying the demon dripping from the tip, staining the white jade floor with a few bloody flowers.
Shen Jue looked at him with a half-smile, then raised his finger, a crescent-shaped silver blade slicing across.
You Jingyan turned his head slightly without changing his expression. A flash of silver light swept past, and Fan Jinzhu beside him was instantly severed, a few strands of black hair falling to the ground.
Before Shen Jue arrived, You Xu had intended to persuade her brother to go back on his own. Seeing Shen Jue arrive, she stood up, took You Jingyan’s sleeve, and softly called out, “Brother.”
The simple two words instantly attracted the attention of both men, and for a moment they both looked at her.
“Brother,” You Xu said, “although the food here is better than the medicinal cuisine in Medicine Spirit Valley, although the demons here spoil me more than the servants in Medicine Spirit Valley, and although the king here is very much to my liking, I still want to go back to Medicine Spirit Valley with you.”
Although the first part of her words made You Jingyan’s lips twitch, the last sentence won him over. He glanced at Shen Jue provocatively, then turned and took You Xu’s hand. “Alright, brother will take you home now. You’ve suffered here….”
The last part was directed at Shen Jue; in his opinion, without him by her side, his sister would suffer wherever she went.
You Xu didn’t know how You Jingyan could tell she was suffering. She was about to nod in agreement when she caught a glimpse of Shen Jue behind You Jingyan. He was expressionless, his tail appeared, wagged twice, and then disappeared.
You Xu wanted to laugh, but forcibly suppressed it, and then said to You Jingyan, “I’m sorry, brother.”
You Jingyan: “?”
“I misspoke, I’ll say it again,” You Xu said seriously, “Although the medicinal food in Medicine Spirit Valley is worse than here, although the servants in Medicine Spirit Valley don’t pamper me like the demons here, and although brother is exceptionally handsome, I still want to stay.”
You Jingyan: “…………”
….
You Xu had to coax and trick You Jingyan into leaving. Before leaving, he left her all the medicine and gold and silver he had on him, and earnestly instructed her, “These are all yours, don’t let the demons take them.”
This was like a mother telling her daughter to guard her dowry before she gets married, so that no one would steal it.
You Jingyan had been determined to take his sister away, but he couldn’t resist her pleading. Especially once her eyes reddened, and she gently tugged at his sleeve, whispering, “Brother, I really want to stay here.”
Instantly, You Jingyan’s usually unwavering heart softened. This was the first time in his life that his sister had pleaded with him like this; he was completely powerless against it and didn’t want to resist.
He had no choice but to give in, feeling a little resentful. What was so good about that demon that she didn’t even want to go back with him?
His sister had grown up constantly on medication, the torment of illness leaving her with very little joy. Most of the time, she was melancholic and self-pitying. You Jingyan tried everything to cheer her up, but with little success, because she had no interest in anything and rarely made any requests.
This time, he saw that his sister’s expressions were livelier, she was smiling and talking, and her health had improved somewhat. If it weren’t for this, no matter how much You Xu pleaded, he definitely wouldn’t have agreed. He had his bottom line: her happiness and health.
As a half-demon slayer, You Jingyan didn’t actually harbor much hatred for demons. If You Xu were harmed, whether human or demon, he wouldn’t show mercy.
Finally, You Jingyan sighed deeply and handed the signal flare to You Xu: “If you’re unhappy here even for a moment, use this, and your brother will come to take you home.”
He patted You Xu’s head, turned to Shen Jue, and said coldly, “If you dare let A Xu suffer even the slightest injustice, I will use all the power of Medicine Spirit Valley to take your head.”
Shen Jue’s expression was indifferent; and he didn’t even look at him.
Watching You Jingyan’s lonely figure as he left, You Xu felt a pang of sadness, picking at the signal flare in her hand.
Shen Jue glanced down at her.
The next moment, the signal flare in You Xu’s hand disappeared. She turned to look at Shen Jue, only to see flames spontaneously igniting in his hand, burning the signal flare to ashes.
You Xu: “…”
The two stared at each other silently. You Xu said, “Do you remember the deal we made in secret just now?”
She didn’t give Shen Jue a chance to answer, closing the door and pulling him onto the large bed inside.
You Xu pushed him to the inside against the wall, blocking him on the outside.
Shen Jue followed her movements without resistance, slightly raising his fox eyes to look at her, the red demonic markings under his eyes rising in sync.
“Don’t pretend you don’t know,” You Xu said, sitting cross-legged and looking at him. After a while, she said seriously, “I think my brother hasn’t gone far. I can still go back with him.”
Shen Jue turned his face away, no longer looking at her, revealing his large fox tail, then pressed it against the wall without moving.
You Xu laughed inwardly but remained unmoved on the surface: “Behave yourself, extend it here.”
Only then did Shen Jue reluctantly let his tail rest on her hand.
You Xu first stroked the red demonic markings at the end of his tail, glanced up at him, and seeing no reaction, stroked it from head to toe. Seeing he didn’t swat her off the bed with his tail, she confidently stroked it with both hands.
The snow-white fur was smooth and soft, tickling her palms; her hands felt like they were exploring a fluffy forest, and she couldn’t stop stroking it.
You Xu lay completely on his tail, her hands still busy, burying her face in it, petting until she was completely overwhelmed. Shen Jue leaned against the wall, one leg bent, his hand on his knee, looking at his own fur, now spread out in all directions, and suddenly felt a headache coming on. He really couldn’t understand why You Xu was making such satisfied howls.
Perhaps infected by her emotions, he inexplicably felt something fill his heart, a sense of satisfaction.
You Xu swore this was the best fur she had ever stroked in her entire fur-stroking career.
Shen Jue, seeing her bury her face for so long, was a little worried she’d suffocate. Just as he was about to say something, You Xu looked up, her bright eyes fixed on him.
That familiar gaze gave Shen Jue a bad feeling. He cautiously asked, “What is it?”
You Xu pressed her advantage, saying, “I want to take off my clothes and hug you.” A fox tail is warm, soft, and gentle; snuggling naked under the covers with one would be even more comfortable than sleeping under an air-conditioned blanket in summer.
Shen Jue: “…”
His throat tightened, and he refused in a hoarse voice, “No!”
“Okay.” With that, You Xu had already unbuckled her belt.
Shen Jue: “…………”

You Jingyan: What? I actually lost to a tail?!
