"Then … do you still want to be leader of the City of Hua?"
Ling Xian had a smile on his lips. No matter how you look at it, he looked devious.
"Yes, yes, yes, of course I do."
Because of the burning from the Demon Defending Monument, the demon was in a state of soullessness. After hearing what Ling Xian said, he subconsciously nodded and repeated the answer to the previous question.
"Hmm?"
Ling Xian raised an eyebrow and his eyes were sharp like swords as he stared at the demon.
Instantly, the violent demon shuddered and quickly changed his words, "No no no, I don't want. Yes, I don't want."
"That's more like it."
Ling Xian softly smiled and looked down at Hua Wan Yue. He raised his voice, "Leader of the City of Hua, you heard that. The demon said he doesn't want you anymore."
Hearing this, Hua Wan Yue sighed in relief and no longer worried.
Everyone at the scene sighed in relief as well. The way they looked at Ling Xian was full of respect and appreciation.
Originally, they were hopeless and thought the leader of the city would be taken away by the demon. Yet now, Ling Xian had stepped up and saved Hua Wan Yue from her predicament. Why wouldn't they be thankful?
Especially for Hua Wan Yue, she was filled with gratefulness and rejoicing.
She was glad that she chose Ling Xian to be the God of Flowers. If she chose someone else, then not only would her innocence be ruined, the City of Hua would lose all its face as well.
But, what did he mean by he doesn't want her anymore?
Can't he just say that he didn't want her anymore?
Hua Wan Yue rolled her eyes at Ling Xian and mumbled, "Seriously, you make it sound like I can't get married."
Then, in a flash, she arrived before Ling Xian. Then, she bowed deeply and said, "Thank you for lending a hand today and saving me from my predicament."
"Leader of the City of Hua, you are being too polite. It was nothing."
Ling Xian brandished his hand. Then, he remembered something and looked at Hua Wan Yue with anticipation.
This startled the woman. She had a bad feeling about this.
As expected, in the next second, she saw Ling Xian's warm and bright smile.
"If you truly want to thank me, then why don't you give me a drop of the Holy Spirit Water."
Ling Xian's face was full of smiles as he looked at Hua Wan Yue with anticipation.
"I knew it."
Hua Wan Yue was speechless. Then, she decided to play around and giggle, "I don't have any Holy Spirit Water, but I do have a beauty. Why don't I give myself to you?"
"Oh, then never mind." Ling Xian shook his head in disappointment and shifted his gaze away from Hua Wan Yue.
This made Hua Wan Yue's eyelid jump. She didn't think Ling Xian would ignore her and look so disappointed.
What do you mean by that!
I'm a beautiful woman. Am I not comparable to a drop of Holy Spirit Water?
Hua Wan Yue was so angry that her chest was heaving up and down.
This made the demon gulp. His eyes once again lit up with passion. However, thinking about the demon next to him, he shuddered. He knew that with Ling Xian here, there was no hope for him.
"Forget it. It's just a small effort. You don't have to worry about it, City Lord Hua."
Ling Xian brandished his hand, "This has been resolved. It is time for me to leave the City of Flowers."
"Leave?"
Hua Wan Yue was a little startled, "You are the Goddess of Flowers of the City of Flowers. According to the rules, you cannot leave the City of Flowers."
"Rules are dead, but people are alive. I believe the City Leader won't make things difficult for me because of a rule." Ling Xian grinned.
"But …"
Hua Wan Yue wanted to say something else but Ling Xian stopped her.
"There are no buts. I have made up my mind. If you don't agree, then you can take away my title as the Goddess of Flowers."
Hearing this, Hua Wan Yue softly sighed, understanding Ling Xian's determination.
"Alright, I promise you."
"Very good. Thank you for letting me go." Ling Xian smiled in satisfaction.
"It's not a problem for you to leave. But you can't take the position of the Flower God."
Hua Wan Yue stared straight at Ling Xian, "Don't worry. I will no longer ask you to extend your life for the Holy Spirit Water and I will not ask you to do anything. I simply want the City of Flowers to have a connection with you. What do you think? "
"I …"
Ling Xian hesitated. He understood what Hua Wan Yue meant. She wanted to get him on her side. In the future, if the City of Flowers is in trouble, he won't sit by and do nothing.
On the other hand, if he is in trouble, the City of Flowers won't sit by and do nothing.
"Alright, I'll agree to it."
Ling Xian nodded and said casually, "In the future, if I am in trouble, please don't sit by and do nothing."
"You saved my life and saved the Holy Spirit Water. Why would I sit by and do nothing?" Hua Wan Yue played with her bangs. She was extremely flirtatious and alluring.
"Then I will thank you in advance." The corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up. He was happy to have gained another helper.
"There is no need to thank me. I should be the one thanking you."
Hua Wan Yue was somewhat happy as well. She was happy to have a heaven-defying talent on her side, but she also had an indescribable feeling.
"Okay, it's getting late. It's time for me to leave."
Ling Xian softly smiled and shifted his gaze towards the demon, "Demon, let's find a place to catch up."
Catch up my a * s!
The demon silently cursed. He knew right away that this wasn't a good thing and he didn't want to leave with a demon like Ling Xian. But he knew very well that if he says no, he will fly into the Demon Defending Monument the next moment.
Therefore, he lowered his head and said, "Okay, let's catch up."
"Then let's go."
Ling Xian shifted his gaze towards the elegant and beautiful Hua Wan Yue. He paid his respect and said, "The future is long. We will meet again."
Then, he marched forward in giant steps with his head held high. After one step, the ground shrank and in the blink of an eye, he was already hundreds of meters away.
His robe was white like snow and his immortal-like demeanor was truly admirable.
Ignoring the completion leveled cultivators below, even Hua Wan Yue's eyes were shining with light. She silently exclaimed at this Heaven's Favorite's temperament.
Only the demon acted like he just ate a dead child and his expression was extremely ugly. Watching Ling Xian's back as he walked away, he wondered if he should turn around and run. He was betting that Ling Xian won't be able to catch up to him.
However, a statement from afar made him give up on that thought.
"I recently learned a new technique. With the Winged Blitz, I wonder if I can compete against you?"
At this, the demon sighed and looked at Hua Wan Yue unwillingly. Then, he made his move and followed.
Just like that, the two of them, one after the other, disappeared without a trace after a few breaths.
Very quickly, Ling Xian and the demon left the City of Flowers and arrived at a dense forest.
This place was filled with ancient trees that towered into the sky and were full of life.
"Let's rest here for a bit."
Ling Xian faintly grinned and landed on top of an ancient tree.
At this, the demon sighed helplessly and landed next to him.
"Alright, now that we are done with the City of Flowers, it is time to talk about what happened between us." Ling Xian sat on top of the dense leaves. Like a feather, he didn't let the leaves fall at all.
The demon did the same.
He nodded as if he had accepted his fate and said helplessly, "Just speak. I am unlucky to have met a demon like you again."
