Chapter 155: Human With Demon Core

Zhu Lin turned to look at Lu Qiu and asked, "High God Lu Qiu, why are you following us?"

Lu Qiu smiled at her and said, "I still want to repay your life-saving grace and repay him for sending me here to die."

Hearing this, Zhu Lin said, "Since you think you still need to repay my life-saving grace, let’s cancel your debt to me and your grudge against Xiu Wu. Just treat it as you repay me by letting go of your grudge against the Devil God."

As soon as she said this, Lu Qiu shook his head and said, "No. Even if you don’t want to, I will repay you for saving my life, and I will also return everything that he did to me."

After saying that, he stood beside her calmly. Zhu Lin was speechless and thought to herself: ’The rumors about the Dragon Clan are indeed true. I finally saw firsthand how long a dragon’s resentment can last, and how stubborn they can be.’

Since she couldn’t persuade Lu Qiu, Zhu Lin decided to ignore him for now. She needs to take care of Xiu Wu’s injured throat first, before explaining everything to Lu Qiu clearly. Knocked on the door, she waited for a while before a little girl opened the door.

When the little girl saw that she was the one who knocked on the door, she smiled shyly, stepped aside and said, "Elder Sister, welcome back."

Zhu Lin looked at the little girl with a smile and asked, "Where is Tu Tu?"

The little girl pointed to the living room and said, "Tu Tu is there."

After saying that, the little girl held Zhu Lin’s index finger and said, "Come with me, Elder Sister. I will take you there."

Seeing the cute three-year-old girl slowly walking to the living room while holding her index finger, Zhu Lin smiled softly and said, "All right."

When she and Xiu Wu walked side by side to the living room, Lu Qiu’s eyes followed the little girl. After a while, he frowned and walked towards the living room. As he walked through the circular door, he froze.

In the living room, there were more than thirty children with demon cores inside their bodies. Lu Qiu used his divine sense to examine the bodies of all the children, and found out that these children were not demons, but humans. As for why they had demon cores in their bodies when they were still humans, Lu Qiu couldn’t find the answer.

He looked at those children for a long time, but still couldn’t find the answer. As the only Dragon God, he is the ruler of the Demon Realm. There was nothing he didn’t know about demons. But now, he discovered that there were some things he didn’t know about demons.

Realizing that the new elder brother had been staring at them, the children quickly hid behind Zhu Lin and stared at Lu Qiu. Although afraid of strangers, the children were subconsciously attracted to this new elder brother.

Seeing that they were avoiding Lu Qiu but staring at him, Zhu Lin said, "Don’t worry. That elder brother is not a bad dragon."

Hearing what she said, the children glanced at her and then looked at Lu Qiu. After staring at him for a while, the children slowly relaxed and continued playing with the toys that Tu Tu and the little zombie had found for them while glancing at Lu Qiu from time to time.

After soothing the children, Zhu Lin looked around for her rabbit but couldn’t find it. Thinking that Tu Tu was playing outside, she sent telepathy to Tu Tu.

[Tu Tu, where are you?]

[Master, are you already here?] Tu Tu asked a second later.

[Yes. I’m in the living room.] Zhu Lin said while helping Xiu Wu sat down on the sofa.

After she finished speaking, Tu Tu immediately said, [I will be there soon.]

After Tu Tu finished speaking, Zhu Lin looked up to the second floor and saw Tu Tu jumping down. Landing gently on the ground, Tu Tu hopped towards her.

The rabbit was shocked when it saw the five finger prints on Xiu Wu’s neck and asked, "Who was so brave to dared to strangle him?!"

Before Zhu Lin had time to answer Tu Tu’s question, a calm voice came from behind the rabbit.

"It’s me."

When Tu Tu looked back, it saw a familiar face and opened its red eyes widely. Tu Tu pointed at Lu Qiu and said in surprise: "You are actually still alive!"

Lu Qiu nodded and said, "Of course. Do you think it’s easy to kill me?"

Because Lu Qiu and Tu Tu are both descendants from the Divine Sacred Clan, they actually know each other and have a good relationship. Seeing that her rabbit was busy talking with Lu Qiu, Zhu Lin patted its head and asked, "Tu Tu, can you heal Xiu Wu’s throat first?"

Seeing the unhappy expression on her face, Tu Tu nodded quickly and said, "Yes, Master."

The moment its furry paws touched Xiu Wu’s neck, Tu Tu’s paws emitted a soft green light. After a few seconds, the bruises on his neck disappeared, and Xiu Wu coughed a few times to relieve the discomfort.

"Do you feel better?" Zhu Lin asked, while checking Xiu Wu’s throat.

Seeing her worried expression, Xiu Wu held her hand that was touching his neck and said, "I’m fine."

Hearing his usual low and magnetic voice, Zhu Lin breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That’s good."

Seeing the intimate interaction between Xiu Wu and Zhu Lin, Lu Qiu asked with a frown: "True God Zhu Lin, have you finally agreed to marry him?"

As soon as he asked this question, the living room fell into silence. Xiu Wu glanced at Lu Qiu and then at Zhu Lin. Seeing the two of them looking at each other, Xiu Wu tightened his grip on Zhu Lin’s hand.
