“Then why didn’t you cherish your life this time?” Mo Xiuyao asked. When Sir Demon Lord was serious, he always liked to get to the bottom of things. This wound was the source of the conflict between her and Mo Xiuyao.

Song Zhi did not want to go into detail, but when she met Mo Xiuyao’s eyes, she could only tell the truth. “Because I forgot.”

Mo Xiuyao’s eyes moved slightly. Song Zhi was afraid that he would get angry again, so she lowered her voice. “You were angry before, so I kept thinking about you and forgot about my injury.”

Mo Xiuyao looked at her steadily. After a long time, he reached out and touched the wound on her arm. His thumb gently rubbed it. It was not painful, but it was hard to ignore. Song Zhi was really afraid that he would break her arm as he touched it, so she asked carefully, “Demon Lord, are you still angry?”

“Yes,” Mo Xiuyao said lazily.

Song Zhi laughed. “You’re lying. If you’re angry, you’ll ask me to get lost.”

Mo Xiuyao glanced at her from the corner of his eyes, and Song Zhi sighed. “Don’t be angry with me. I didn’t do it on purpose. Think about how scary you were at that time. You cut off his meridians one by one. If I didn’t stop you in time, would you have torn him into pieces?”

Mo Xiuyao sneered and pressed his fingertips on her wound. This time, it hurt. Song Zhi cried out an ‘Ah!… There was a slight tremble in her voice, and the two of them were stunned.

Song Zhi was embarrassed and she said, “Umm, I’m not…”

“Coward.” Mo Xiuyao interrupted her, and Song Zhi seized the opportunity.

She looked at him expectantly. “That’s right, that’s right. I’m a coward. So can you not be so scary in the future?”

Mo Xiuyao placed one hand on Song Zhi’s body and tapped his fingers twice out of habit. Then, he realized that he was tapping on Song Zhi’s waist. He paused, but his fingers were still on her waist.

“Okay?” Song Zhi saw that Mo Xiuyao did not speak and could not help but ask.

“No,” Mo Xiuyao replied.

Song Zhi, “…” He did not hesitate at all, how cruel!

“If you’re a coward, then train your courage. If you dare to avoid me in the future…” Mo Xiuyao narrowed his eyes and did not say anything else.

What would happen? He will kill her? Just like the people from the Mo River Valley? Song Zhi imagined the scene and shivered. “Demon Lord, we’re already so familiar with each other, but you’re still trying to scare me like this. Isn’t that a little too much?”

Mo Xiuyao ignored her. Song Zhi looked at his impassive face and could not help but probe, “Aren’t you afraid of scaring me away?”

Only then did Mo Xiuyao look at her. Song Zhi cheered up. “Look, you always scare me and order me around. I’ll cook all three meals a day, but you don’t even wash the dishes. Sooner or later, I’ll be driven away by you!”

“Try running,” Mo Xiuyao said lazily.

“Will you be angry if I really run away?” Song Zhi gulped. She would leave the Demon’s Note Valley sooner or later. Seeing that the Gu Poison was almost cured, she had to plan her escape.

“What’s there to be angry about?” Mo Xiuyao retorted, and Song Zhi immediately felt happy.

However, she still had to show a regretful expression on her face. “I knew you didn’t care about me at all. I guess you wouldn’t even bother to look for me after I leave.”

“Not really,” Mo Xiuyao replied.

“What?” Song Zhi looked up guiltily.

“I still have to look for you if you run away.” Mo Xiuyao looked at Song Zhi. “I’ll find you and break your legs.”

Song Zhi, “…”

After a short silence, Mo Xiuyao suddenly realized something. “It seems that it’s too easy for you if I only break your legs.”

“What else do you want?” Song Zhi swallowed her saliva.

“How about cutting off the tendons of your hands and feet, and then throwing them into the nest of demons to feed the demon spirits?” Mo Xiuyao’s tone seemed to be discussing with her.

Song Zhi stared at him for a long time, and evil rose from her heart. “Then I’ll take advantage of your weakness and kill you!”

As she spoke, she pounced on Mo Xiuyao, baring her fangs and brandishing her claws as she tried to strangle him.

Mo Xiuyao easily caught Song Zhi’s evil claws and turned over to press her under him. Song Zhi struggled for a while, but in the end, not only her hands were pressed down, but her legs were also pressed tightly by him. She could not move at all. Song Zhi immediately turned her head and stretched out her neck to bite his wrist. Mo Xiuyao scoffed. “Let go.”

“I’m not…” Song Zhi was still biting Mo Xiuyao’s arm when she spoke, and her voice was muffled and unclear. Mo Xiuyao narrowed his eyes.

“I’m not going to…” Song Zhi looked at him provocatively. “If you’re so great, then bite me!”

Her lips became even redder because of the force, and her lips glistened slightly under the moonlight. A dangerous glint flashed in Mo Xiuyao’s eyes. He bent down and bit the corner of Song Zhi’s mouth without any hesitation!
