Of course Yao Shen wants to stay, but there's still the problem of Si Wang and the other ghost kings to deal with.
He bites his lower lip in deep thought. Unsure of how to balance what he wants to do and what he needs to do.
Xin Hulei is extending him an olive branch, and he wants badly to accept it.
Turning to Heimao, still standing still by the doorway, Xin Hulei says, "You can leave, I'll call you when dinner is ready."
It's clear he wants to stay and listen in to whatever they're going to stay. His curiosity made obvious by the excitable flicker of his cat ears.
After one last narrowed-eyed glance back at Xin Hulei, and a wink at Yao Shen, Heimao leaves.
"I'll rally the demons," Xin Hulei says, as soon as the door closes behind Heimao's back. "You don't need to talk with that Si Wang, the next time you return will be to attack."
Yao Shen sucks in a breath. "Are you sure?"
