Little Orchid was motionless and vision followed his shadow. Dong Fang Qing Cang who walking in front suddenly halted and turned around to frown at her, “What are you calculating*?”
*Actual idiom used: Counting on a narrow abacus; suggesting the person calculating or planning out something. Chocolate cosmos translated this.
Little Orchid quickly waved her hands and she also stepped onto Big Yu’s head. After that she climbed askew on top and was struggling when a hand suddenly held in front of Little Orchid. Little Orchid was in a daze and lifted head to look. The shadow of Dong Fang Qing Cang’s back was lighted and the pair of fresh red eyes did not contain any emotion, yet has a reflection of her figure.
Little Orchid lowered her eyes and placed her hand onto Dong Fang Qing Cang’s hand.
The hollow of the palm grew warm and then was grasped strongly. She was pulled onto Big Yu’s back.
Little Orchid sat in the back and looked at his shadow and the long silver hair that was fluttering in the breeze. Occasionally there would be a few strands that flew in front and lightly brushed against her cheeks as if gently caressing. Little Orchid suddenly felt if Dong Fang Qing Cang knew how to be gentle then perhaps he would be a perfect lover…
Little Orchid startled herself and was in a daze at her thought.
She…from a moment ago has…placed Demon King next to the word “lover”?
She…is crazy?
When Little Orchid was still surprised with herself, the voice of Dong Fang Qing Cang suddenly rose up, “Little flower demon.”
“Ah?”
Dong Fang Qing Cang slightly leaned, “Give your hand to me.”
Little Orchid stared blankly and repeated, “Ah?”
As if losing patience, Dong Fang Qing Cang grabbed her right hand and after that Little Orchid felt achy as the bone orchid from Dong Fang Qing Cang’s wrist crawled across and turned into bracelet that clung onto her wrist.
Dong Fang Qing Cang let go of Little Orchid and did not appeared to say anything.
Little Orchid dazed out as she looked at the bone orchid on her wrist and then bewilderedly asked him, “Why give to me?”
If it was not due to this object, then during the time Dong Fang Qing Cang lost his powers, does not know how pitiful he would become. Yet, he has given such an important, protective object to her?
“Ben zuo has retreated powers. Even though the curse remained, but cannot be easily used. Naturally, self-protection is not a problem and does not need anymore, But you need it.”
Little Orchid was briefly silent then nodded, “That’s right, this xi rang body is quite valuable, cannot let it be damaged.”
Dong Fang Qing Cang heard such and head slightly tilted to glance at Little Orchid who was playing with the bone orchid on her hand. Dong Fang Qing Cang turned around and was briefly silent until he said, “Not only the xi rang, you also need to be protected.”
Little Orchid was stumped for words.
“Ben zuo has promised to find you a different body. Thus, until then will not let something happened to you.” Dong Fang Qing Cang did not turn around and only left Little Orchid a cold shadow of the back, but the words he has spoke were not the usual apathy, “Therefore, you can be at ease by ben zuo.’s side.”
The meaning behind Dong Fang Qing Cang’s words were said before, but at that time Little Orchid heard such and did not feel anything…
Yet, at this time hearing such has caused her state of mind to become chaotic.
She lowered head, pulled hair behind ear, and then nodded, “Oh.”
The speed of Big Yu was quite fast.
When arriving at the Kunlun demon market it was still the afternoon and after coming across the main street of Kunlun demon market ashore, Big Yu flew quite low.
The people underneath felt the heavy demon energy ushering toward and one after another lifted head to consecutively shout in panic. Little Orchid looked under and saw the various heaven cultivators and demons that were selling. There were also various people from the demon realm that mixed in and were intensely peering at them.
Little Orchid felt a bit embarrassed, “Like this isn’t it too ostentatious…”
Sentence was not finished as the frozen lake has appeared within view.
“Hold tightly onto the snake scales.” As Dong Fang Qing Cang’s voice was lightly spoken, Little Orchid has already seen the head of Big Yu knocking down onto the frozen lake and broke the ice to move. When Little Orchid felt that she was about to be thrown, a hand suddenly grabbed her waist to hold tightly. After that she could only see around her were bubbles that constantly emerged. When closed eyes and then opened once more, Dong Fang Qing Cang has already brought her into the demon market boundary at the bottom of the lake and has landed right in the middle of the demon market.
The bustling noises from the surroundings immediately grew dead silent. The demon that sold the Heavenly Fragrant duduo was still there, and the elder that sold medicine was still there. Everyone was peering at the two.
Little Orchid lifted head to look. Big Yu was obstructed outside by the boundary, but it was not in a hurry as it leisurely swam back and forth in the lake, causing the demon market ground at the bottom of the lake to completely consist of his shadow swimming. Its body was gigantic like a dragon and caused those to feel an indiscernible pressure.
Little Orchid felt embarrassed and she scratched her head, “Everyone…continue. We came to pick up something.”
Finished speaking, she was pulled by Dong Fang Qing Cang toward the weaponry stalls.
