Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 823: Chapter 690: Growing Suspicion—He Is a Demon

The Three-legged Birdmen were uneasy upon first entering a strange environment.

They looked at each other in confusion for a full half stick of incense’s time.

At that moment, the Guard Commander Ba Tu plopped down onto the ground, prostrating before Ye Lingyue, kissing the soil in front of her. This was the highest form of respect from the Three-legged Birdmen, as well as the ultimate tribute of the Demon Clan.

Such a gesture was only made in the presence of their recognized ruler.

”Esteemed Queen, Ba Tu and all of my kinsmen are willing to devote our lives in loyalty to you. Thank you for bringing us to this Immortal Realm.”

Following Ba Tu, the other stunned Birdmen finally snapped back to reality, tears brimming in their eyes as they all prostrated themselves on the ground.

The so-called ’humans die for wealth as birds perish for food,’ that simple wish to merely survive applied to these Three-legged Birdmen. Even less so would anyone wish to depart from here back to the lifeless Rift Valley Sand River.

Even if it meant never leaving, they would harbor no grievances.

Ye Lingyue nodded her head.

”Rise, everyone. This place is known as Hong Meng Heaven. Although you will live here from now on, I will establish rules for you. Everyone must learn the human language, and I will bring in some books on human skills and craftsmanship. The young adults will be responsible for hunting and pioneering, the elderly for agriculture and daily affairs, and I will teach the young Birdmen Martial Arts and the methods of Cultivation Technique. In short, if you wish to survive in Hong Meng Heaven, everyone must contribute and make the fullest use of everything. Each month, the Birdman who makes the greatest contribution will be granted permission to leave Hong Meng Heaven once,” Ye Lingyue promptly enacted the temporary survival code of Hong Meng Heaven.

These Birdmen, with their well-developed limbs and simple minds, showed no hint of resistance to Ye Lingyue’s commands.

They quickly grouped up and, bringing their tools, began to familiarize themselves and adapt to the environment within Hong Meng Heaven under Ye Lingyue’s direction.

Ye Lingyue’s resettlement work lasted an entire night and continued into the following morning.

Not long after Ye Lingyue and Feng Xun had parted ways, back in the former lair of the Beauty Snake Woman,

After days of continuous travel, Long Baobao and Little Wuya were utterly exhausted and quickly fell asleep.

Feng Xun sat on a stone lounge, not far from him was the Cannibal Flower Little Qiu Tian.

Little Qiu Tian had been left by Ye Lingyue to watch over the others.

At this moment, however, Little Qiu Tian’s primary defensive focus was on Feng Xun.

Ever since Ye Lingyue tasked Little Qiu Tian with temporarily protecting Feng Xun and Long Baobao on the mountain ledge, Little Qiu Tian realized something was amiss.

Because it found it could not confine the man before it.

During Ye Lingyue and Chen Hongru’s confrontation,

To prevent Feng Xun and Long Baobao from worrying, Ye Lingyue took extra precautions and instructed Little Qiu Tian to shield their Divine Senses.

Little Qiu Tian did so, but it could only shield Long Baobao’s Divine Sense. It soon realized, especially when its master was at a disadvantage twice, and particularly when her body shook and blood seeped from the corner of her mouth,

It could feel a terrifying burst of killing intent from Feng Xun, who was confined inside the flower.

This killing intent was so fierce that even Little Qiu Tian couldn’t help but shiver.

It suspected that if Feng Xun hadn’t suppressed it or should his master face an even greater crisis, that man would become like an unsheathed sword, rushing forward regardless of everything.

Such a man?

Why would her master ask her to protect him?

He clearly didn’t need it, for Little Qiu Tian could bet that if this man truly ignited in fury, not just a Chen Hongru, but the entire Sifang City would be laid to rest.

Little Qiu Tian was puzzled, fortunately, the master quickly reversed the situation at that time, and the terrifying aura on the man also disappeared.

The man whose aura had receded, looked no different from an Ordinary person.

This made Little Qiu Tian even more perplexed.

This man seems to be the master’s lover.

He looks frail, but Little Qiu Tian has always felt that he has a very dangerous aura.

It’s important to know that Little Qiu Tian is the young form of the Ancient Creature, Lady Qiu Tian.

Even though it hasn’t fully evolved back into Lady Qiu Tian’s form, Little Qiu Tian was raised in Hong Meng Heaven and has the innate instincts of an Ancient Creature from birth.

Not to mention, it was specifically cultivated by the Three Sects to guard the Black Valley.

It had been wondering about the dangerous aura found in Feng Xun, trying to figure out what it was.

It wasn’t until it accompanied its master to the cave of the Beauty Snake Woman.

The master left early to take care of the Three-legged Birdman.

Only then did Little Qiu Tian have the chance to secretly observe Feng Xun.

It was within this relatively enclosed nest of the Beauty Snake Woman that Little Qiu Tian smelled a familiar scent.

That scent was unmistakably that of the Demon Flower Xiyuan King!

It couldn’t be wrong.

From the heavens above to the earth below, from ancient times till now, only the Moonflower King can emit such a rich and unique fragrance.

And this fragrance was emanating from the master’s lover.

Little Qiu Tian became suddenly nervous.

Not many people on the mainland knew the true significance of the Moonflower King.

But as an Ancient Creature bred by the Three Sects, how could Little Qiu Tian not understand the deep meaning of this scent?

The Moonflower King is called the first Great Demon Flower of the Demon World.

The blooming of the first Great Demon Flower signals the return of the ancestor of the Demon World.

And to be able to obtain the Moonflower King, one must be a Great Power or a supreme existence in the Demon World.

The master’s lover is extraordinarily beautiful, even surpassing the people of the Demon World in beauty. Could he be a Great Demon transformed?

It seems that the master is very affectionate towards him.

But humans and demons absolutely cannot be together.

That’s an eternal rule of heaven, and if the master breaks this decree, she could become the public enemy of the mainland.

No, it must tell the master.

It couldn’t let the master be ensnared by this terrible Great Demon of the Demon World.

The entire night passed quickly, and after much meditation and contemplation, Little Qiu Tian finally made a decision.

However, Little Qiu Tian was disappointed that its master had not yet returned.

”Hehe, have you thought it through after pondering the whole night?”

The man’s clear voice floated into Little Qiu Tian’s ears.

Little Qiu Tian shuddered; it glanced at the man who had been sitting next to it, his eyes mostly closed, and it thought he was asleep too.

But just as it had resolved to tell its master that Feng Xun might be a demon, the man suddenly opened his eyes.

His eyes were fluid and turning, sparkling with a clarity and luster akin to amber.
