The sound of frantic footsteps could be heard from outside. "Snake? What snake! !"
An Er and a few servants rushed in. When they saw that their master had fainted on the ground, Qu Yao stood to the side in disheveled clothes. The men who had followed her quickly hid away.
Qu Yao did not care about so many formalities. She shouted, "What are you hiding from! It's not like I'm not wearing anything! Hurry up and come in and pull your master onto the bed!"
The few of them came in again in a panic, and with five or six hands, they helped Bai Yihe and him onto the bed.
An Er asked, "I heard him shouting that there was a snake? Where is it? I'll go get someone to catch it!"
Qu Yao leaned against the side of the bed, looking troubled. "Is he...alright?"
"My master fainted from shock. Just give him some sedative medicine later."
She was shocked. "He still has to take medicine?"
He was so weak. If he knew that the snake's tail was hers, wouldn't he be scared to death?
"I thought he couldn't see? How could he still faint from shock?"
An Er explained, "Master was bitten by a snake when he went up the mountain to pick herbs. That snake was extremely poisonous and almost killed him. That's why he couldn't stand it when he heard about snakes."
"I'll find someone to buy some snake-repelling medicine," An Er muttered to hIMself. "How can there be snakes in the house? I've never heard of them before."
Qu Yao: "..." because I didn't come before.
After everyone left, she sat by the bed alone, feeling melancholic. She looked at the unconscious Bai Yihe and fell into deep thought.
How could there be such a delicate and beautiful person in this world? He fainted after being scared, which made people feel both sorry and guilty.
No one knew when the Faceless Ghost had stood in the room. He was not wearing human skin today, but a face without facial features.
"Who is he?" He gritted his teeth and complained, "How dare he marry the demon ancestor with such a cowardly appearance? The tens of thousands of demons in the demon world wouldn't even dare to dream about it! But he actually fainted after touching your noble snake tail!"
"Shut up!" Qu Yao didn't turn her head, "If you don't want to die, then get lost!"
"No, no, no." Faceless Ghost quickly admitted his mistake.
In fact, what he said was right. It was Qu Yao's snake tail that gave her a mysterious status in the demon world. This feeling was like the belief of a god.
Shadow not only used her identity as a half-human and half-beast to help her establish a basic status in the demon world, but later on, he also let her kill all the evil spirits in the demon world and made the entire demon world submit to her.
They not only protected her to grow up, but also gave her a supreme position.
She grew up in the midst of killing and was doted on by the evil spirits. Her magic power rose gradually, and eventually, she became the demon lord that all the demons respected.
The Faceless Ghost smiled and said that the water ghost planned to make a move in two days. Today, the water ghost had already made a move, but he deliberately left before the water ghost made his move, and left a message saying that he would bring his friends to fish in two days.
He was sure that the water ghost had heard this and even took the initiative to throw two fish onto the shore for him.
Qu Yao looked at Bai Yihe, who had not woken up yet. "I got it. You can go back first."
There was no change in her expression. She pulled Bai Yihe's hand and whispered, "In two days, I might have to leave. In the future..."
Bai Yihe's hand moved slightly. He held Qu Yao's hand tightly and kept muttering, "There's a snake. Yao Yao, go quickly. Yao Yao, go quickly."
He suddenly opened his eyes and woke up. He stood up and hugged Qu Yao, asking anxiously, "Are you okay? Are you hurt?"
After asking for a long time, he apologized in embarrassment, "I'm sorry, I..."
Qu Yao touched his back and comforted him, "I'm fine. Why do you keep apologizing to me!"
He buried his head in Qu Yao's heart and acted like a spoiled child, feeling wronged. "I was too weak. When I encountered danger, not only did I fail to protect you, but I even fainted. It's all my fault."
"What are you saying!" Qu Yao helped him to his feet, she said firmly, "You are the best person in this world! You are the only good person I, Qu Yao, have ever met in my entire life! When you touched the snake, you did not run away first. Instead, you pulled me away first. That is why you are very brave!"
She did not say that it was the first time in her life that she had met such a gentle person. There was no one in heaven and earth who was more gentle than Bai Yihe.
It was the first time that she had the urge to protect someone. It was the first time that she thought that it would be great if she could always be like this.
"Take me out for a walk." Qu Yao stroked his hair. "I haven't gone shopping with you yet."
She was used to the dark demon world and walking alone at night. She had never walked the bustling road of the human world with anyone.
"Good," Bai Yihe agreed immediately, "Where you want to go, I will go with you!"
