Ch 59

Mo Yan seemed to have woken up from a dream. He took out an ancient jade tablet from his sleeve and handed it to Ling Yu. He said, "When you think of what compensation you want, crush this jade tablet. I will be there immediately."

Ling Yu took the jade tablet and carefully examined it. He saw that the tablet was glowing with green light and he could vaguely see ancient and cryptic inscriptions on it. It was probably some kind of teleportation tool.

He said, "Ghost Lord Wang, the Accompanying Moon Forest is a treasure that has been guarded by my demon race for generations. It is of great significance. Ordinary compensation, this emperor will not accept."

Mo Yan frowned and said, "Just mention it. As long as I can do it, I will not refuse."

He made such a promise so easily. Su Yang's eyelids twitched and he quietly tugged at his sleeve. Mo Yan asked blankly, "What's wrong?"

The beautiful demon emperor's gaze also swept over. Su Yang pulled the corner of his mouth and said, "No, nothing …"

Mo Yan thought that he was craving the roasted meat from last night. He squeezed his soft palm and said, "Don't worry. When we catch those monsters, I will roast them for you. A five thousand year old Scarlet Dragon and a four thousand year old Thunder Leopard. Eating them will definitely be very nutritious. Who knows, they might even increase your cultivation."

Su Yang's mouth twitched. This, this was too cruel!! And the demon emperor's expression was very ugly!!

Ling Yu did not fly into a rage on the spot. A five thousand year old Scarlet Dragon and a four thousand year old Thunder Leopard. These two monsters were once experts in the demon realm. Even if the heavenly realm's Deity Generals were to attack, they might not be able to take them down. But listening to Mo Yan's tone, it was as if they were just nutritious food. How could he not be angry?

Perhaps, in the eyes of this ancient beast, he was nothing more than a five-thousand-year-old bird. Killing him would be as easy as killing a Silver Wolf.

Seeing Ling Yu's expression become more and more gloomy, Su Yang wrote on Mo Yan's palm: "Demon Emperor."

Su Yang's original intention was for Mo Yan to take the Demon Emperor's feelings into consideration. However, Mo Yan's expression changed and he said sternly, "He can't be eaten. He's a bird of prey. He's extremely poisonous."

Su Yang: "…" I'm not going to eat him!!

The corner of Ling Yu's mouth twitched. The only reason you can't eat me is because of my poison?!

The atmosphere at the scene became very awkward, but Mo Yan did not feel it at all. He spread out his huge red wings, protected Su Yang in his arms, and left just like that.

Demon Emperor Ling Yu was still standing in the same spot. Looking at their departing figures, his eyes suddenly turned dark.

"As long as you can do it, you won't refuse?" He muttered in a low voice: "I heard that the Master of the Ghost Realm values his promise as much as his life. This is truly … Heaven is helping me."

= = =

Only when they were far away from the scorched land did Su Yang speak of his worries.

"No matter what, you're still the Master of the Ghost Realm. You're not only representing yourself, but also the entire Ghost Realm. If you rashly make such a promise, what if you're used by others?"

Mo Yan rubbed Su Yang's cheek with his horn and said happily: "Su 'er is concerned about me."

Su Yang's cheeks were hot. Not knowing if it was because of his rubbing or because of some other reason, he muttered in a low voice: "I'm afraid that you'll help others count the money after being sold. The Demon Race is cunning by nature. It's never wrong to be careful and vigilant."

Mo Yan's mouth curved up slightly. He nodded and said: "I'll be careful in the future. I'll listen to whatever Su 'er says."

Su Yang paused and suddenly asked: "Then, what if I also lie to you?"

Mo Yan's smile disappeared. Cracks appeared on his usually stiff face, as if he had suffered an unbearable injury.

He frowned and said solemnly: "You won't. Su 'er won't lie to me."

His words were so powerful that Su Yang felt guilty. He explained: "This is just an assumption. If I lied to you, would you still treat me well? Would you still treat me like a female beast and protect me? "

"Don't assume this, I don't like it."

Mo Yan tightened his arms and said unhappily: "Su 'er won't lie to me … I was deceived by the God Race and lost my eyes. The Demon Race also deceived me and almost made me lose my life in the Avici Purgatory. Later, even the Human Race dared to deceive me and treated me like an idiot. Those who have deceived me have been severely punished. Whether it's the Candle Dragon or the Scarlet Dragon, even that cunning Human Race, it's the same. But Su 'er, you're different … "

He kissed Su Yang lightly on the side of his neck. There was a hint of grievance in his voice: "If the person who deceived me was Su 'er, I wouldn't be able to punish you. Because I said before that I would protect Su' er forever. If Su 'er gets hurt, I will also feel pain, even more pain than Su' er …"

It was really inconceivable. He was clearly a powerful Primordial Fierce Beast, but he had such a weak side. It was as if he could be completely defeated without much effort.

Actually, Su Yang knew better than anyone that although this Strange Beast was simple and easy to deceive, with his strength, as long as he wanted to, it would not be difficult for him to dominate the Three Realms and run amok in the Divine Continent. Because he was the Child of Destiny, no one in the world could defeat him.

But at this moment, he had no way to measure this man with his fighting strength. This Qiong Qi who liked to act spoiled was seeking comfort from him. Other than feeling heartache, he could not do anything else.

Su Yang reached out and cupped Mo Yan's cheeks. Looking at those empty but beautiful eyes, he said slowly: "I'm sorry, it's my fault. This assumption is meaningless, because I will never hurt you."

It was "will never hurt", but not "will never deceive".
