In the Enchanted Garden, Hu Ke faced the gloomy prison. He resisted the urge to vomit and gripped the dustpan in his hand tightly.

It was too tragic.

The teenager forced himself to ignore everything around him and focus only on the dirty floor. But he couldn't. He couldn't do it.

There was a sticky stench in the air, the water vapor that almost soaked his clothes, the dried bloodstains on the ground at the corner of the wall, the deep claw marks on the stone wall, and the dried fingernails at the end of the claw marks …

All of them reminded him that this was the cradle of evil, the darkest purgatory of the demon race.

It was too much.

How could he treat his own kind like this?

Hu Ke clenched his teeth and used the broom to support his trembling calves, not letting himself fall to the ground.

But when he cleaned up the garbage on the ground and pulled out a piece of bloody bone from a pile of flesh and hair that he couldn't identify, the teenager finally couldn't stand it anymore. He threw down the dustpan, turned around, and ran, vomiting violently outside the door.

Cold sweat had already soaked his back. At this moment, the cold wind blew, and the bone-chilling coldness seeped into his bones and penetrated his heart.

Hu Ke vomited until there was nothing left in his stomach. He held onto the wall and stood with difficulty, but he still couldn't help but cover his mouth and retch.

A slender hand suddenly reached out from behind him, holding a cup of water, and brought it to the teenager's mouth.

"Drink some water," the person said softly.

Hu Ke's gray lips moved silently a few times, and he said softly, "… Thank you."

There seemed to be a little bit of mint powder in the water. It was refreshing and cool, and it went all the way to the bottom of his heart.

Hu Ke drank half the cup in one breath, and finally managed to suppress the nausea in his throat. The terrible rotten smell no longer lingered in his mouth and nose.

He turned around gratefully. As expected, he saw Cui Hai's tall and handsome figure.

Cui Hai's pitiful eyes swept over the teenager's pale cheeks. He said softly, "Your heart isn't ruthless enough. You're not suitable for this. I'll ask the manager to arrange an easy job for you."

"Thank you, Brother Cui." Hu Ke's chest was filled with warmth, and he forced a smile.

But in the next second, he shook his head firmly. "But there's no need. I can do this. I want to do this."

Although cleaning the Enchanted Garden was a difficult task, he had the opportunity to come into contact with the imprisoned little demons.

If he wanted to find Xiao Wei and Xie Heng, who might have been imprisoned, this job was his best chance.

A subtle light flashed in Cui Hai's eyes.

He pondered for a moment, and then slowly said, "Alright, if you insist … but don't you think this place is scary?"

Hu Ke nodded repeatedly.

— Of course it's scary, it's scary enough to scare a monster to death!

Cui Hai's thin eyes narrowed slightly. Her long eyelashes drooped down and swept a deep shadow on her eyelids.

After a moment of silence, he said softly, "Don't you think those demons, our kind, are very pitiful?"

Hu Ke nodded more frequently.

"How pitiful!"

The youth's pale cheeks flushed red. He gritted his teeth and said, "That Xie Ziyou, how could you be so ruthless?

I really want to — "

Before Hu Ke could finish his sentence, Cui Hai suddenly said, "Kill them?"

Although this sentence was a question, it carried a certain tone.

The youth's voice was gloomy. His tone seemed casual, but it faintly contained a frightening chill.

Hu Ke was startled by the faintly discernible ruthlessness in his words. He suddenly raised his head and stared blankly at Cui Hai.

The youth stood on the stone steps in front of the door. Behind him was a dark, bottomless cave. He seemed to be standing in front of the ferocious mouth of the abyss. His smile was unrestrained and insignificant. The cedar scent was still there, but it was thin and cold as if it had been baptized by frost and snow.

"You really believed it?" Cui Hai's lips suddenly curled into a smile. "I was joking."

After a pause, he said, "How about this? I have a good relationship with the manager here. I'll talk to him and do my best to take care of you.

If you have any other needs, you can directly ask me. "

Cui Hai's smile was gentle and elegant. His voice was as clear as spring water, making people feel as if they were bathing in the spring breeze.

The warm sun passed through the gaps between the branches and leaves, casting mottled light and shadow. His wide black brocade sleeves fluttered in the wind, and the hibiscus flowers embroidered with dark golden thread silently bloomed. The youth's posture was natural and unrestrained, and he was incomparably handsome.

He stood in front of the gloomy prison. The darkness spread over his slender shadow and connected seamlessly with it, as if he was wearing a dark black cloak behind him. His face was bright and gentle, and there was a faint halo around him, as if a god had descended.

… He was incompatible with the gloomy and decaying Enchanted Garden.

Hu Ke nodded gratefully. The suspicion that had just risen in his heart was quickly suppressed and disappeared in Cui Hai's gentle and caring eyes.

The youth thought in annoyance, How could he doubt Brother Cui?

He was clearly such a kind and righteous demon, the brightest light in this gloomy prison.

As long as he stood here and stood behind him, he would be able to summon up the courage to face all the terrible unknown.

…

Xie Ziyou didn't know that he had finally created a clear image of a villain in other people's hearts.

Unfortunately, that person wasn't the main character and couldn't provide him with points.

But even if he knew about this, he probably wouldn't care very much.

At this moment, the youth's entire mind was firmly attracted by the scene in front of him. After he dismissed The Little Servant, he lifted the curtain and entered the room. The scene that greeted his eyes made Xie Ziyou's blood freeze in an instant. His pupils violently contracted, and he was momentarily speechless.

The scattered green fruits and porcelain pieces on the ground were nothing. The most eye-catching thing was a bright red Chinese rose in the middle of the ground. It was as hot as a flame and as dazzling as it was in full bloom. A tender yellow stamen poked out from the center, shaking playfully in the breeze as it waved at him.

The long dark green stem was held in the mouth of a similarly dark green small snake.

A pair of light gray eyes were staring at him. The small snake's slender body curved in a graceful arc, and its head and tail were intertwined. It used its head to lift the rose and brought it to the youth.

The shape of its body was shockingly heart-shaped.

Xie Ziyou's eyes suddenly became hot.

Using a heart to represent love was something that he had unintentionally revealed to Xie Heng in the previous world.

Xie Ziyou vaguely remembered that it was on a certain anniversary that they had known each other for decades. He had prepared a gift for Xie Heng that he had made himself. Influenced by his previous world's thinking, he had subconsciously drawn a heart-shaped pattern on the gift box.

Xie Heng hadn't asked him what the pattern meant, and Xie Ziyou had thought that he didn't care. After all, it was just a gift box for wrapping, and not the gift itself.

… Unexpectedly, he had always remembered it.

"Xie Heng!"

Xie Ziyou cried tears of joy. The misery of "not being able to find a flower" in the Enchanted Garden instantly dissipated.

His eyes were slightly red, and his beautiful peach blossom eyes were glittering. His pupils seemed to be scattered by the sun, and they were shining brightly.

The small snake held the rose in its mouth and happily jumped in front of him. It said incoherently, "Hiss, hiss!"

At this moment, Xie Ziyou didn't think that the small snake was ugly anymore.

He raised his hand and scooped the small snake into his palm. He carefully held it in his hand and looked at it carefully. For a moment, he felt that the small snake's head was cute, its deep gray eyes were cute, and its dark green body was also cute.

It was so cute that he couldn't help but hold it to the side of his face and rub it gently.

"It's actually you."

Xie Ziyou smiled brightly. He pressed his fingertips against the small snake's forehead and complained softly, "Why didn't you say so earlier? You made me look for you for a long time in vain."

The small snake slithered in his palm and spat out its thin and long tongue. "Hiss, hiss."

Xie Ziyou asked with concern, "How did you get here?

Why did you become a snake? "

The small snake raised its tail. "Hiss, hiss."

"Did something happen to you?

Or have you always been like this? "

"Hiss, hiss."

Xie Ziyou's smile gradually froze.

His slender brows furrowed quietly, and the young man had a strange expression. He glanced at the small snake in his palm and muttered, "Don't tell me you can't change back?

Are we going to keep hissing like this? "

The small snake felt a little guilty. It scratched Xie Ziyou's palm with the tip of its tail and whispered, "Hiss … hiss."

"Other than hissing, hiss, hiss, hiss, can you say anything else?"

"Hiss?"

It was rare to see Xie Heng so embarrassed. Xie Ziyou was very playful.

He lifted his lover up and lifted the small snake's chin with his fingertips. He smiled mischievously and said, "Come, shake hands."

Xie Heng: "???"

He tilted his head and looked at the small wings on his back in confusion. He shook the tips of his wings a few times and tried to put them into Xie Ziyou's hands — to no avail.

The wings were too small.

"I don't know how to shake hands." Xie Ziyou sighed deliberately. He hooked his finger again and smiled. "Do you know how to sit down?"

The small snake's eyes were confused, and his face showed that he didn't know what to do.

He realized belatedly that shaking hands and sitting down seemed to be … training cats and dogs, right?

The small snake didn't respond. Xie Ziyou touched his smooth little head and pretended to complain. "You don't know how to sit down either. You're so stupid.

Do you want to dance? I'll play the flute, and you'll come out of the cloth bag and sway to my beat? "

Xie Heng was speechless.

He knew this. He was really training him like a pet!

The small snake rubbed against Xie Ziyou's palm unhappily. It raised its tail and whipped the young man's wrist. When it swung its tail, it used force, but when it landed, it didn't want to. It only landed its tail gently. It was all bark and no bite.

Xie Ziyou hugged him happily and said with a smile, "Okay, okay, I'm just joking with you. How can I bear to take you to perform? Besides, I don't know how to play the flute … Let's talk about business. Do you have a way to restore your human body?"

The small snake's slender tail wrapped around Xie Ziyou's wrist. Its smooth scales slid across her soft skin. It was slightly cold and itchy.

It opened its mouth and revealed its white and sharp teeth. It made a "biting" gesture at Xie Ziyou's finger.

Xie Ziyou was slightly stunned and said in surprise, "Are you going to suck my blood?"

No way. He had never heard of a snake demon having vampire blood.

However, the impulse to see his lover again suppressed everything. Although Xie Ziyou was surprised, he didn't hesitate.

He resolutely put his wrist to the small snake's mouth and urged, "Come on, suck it quickly.

Remember to be gentle. If it hurts, I won't let you off. "

Looking at the slender wrist in front of his mouth, Xie Heng didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

He wanted to make a "sucking Xuan Li" gesture, but it was too difficult to do. Instead, it made Xie Ziyou mistakenly think that he was going to suck blood.

In fact, sucking blood was also effective for him.

Because cultivators went through the Heavenly Tribulation and turned their mortal bodies into spiritual bodies, their xuan qi had already permeated into their limbs and bones. Blood was an important part of the body, and it was also one of the parts with the strongest Xuan Li in a cultivator's body.

The small snake rubbed against Xie Ziyou's wrist and stuck out its small tongue to lick it. Its sharp tongue swept across Yingbai's wrist, and the itch became more obvious.

A sense of nervousness surged in Xie Ziyou's heart, causing him to close his eyes.

The cold feeling of his wrist being licked … It was very similar to the feeling of the doctor applying iodine to his wrist before getting an injection in his previous life.

It always gave him the feeling that he would be pricked by a needle in the next second.

However, Xie Ziyou's eyes were tightly closed, and his long eyelashes trembled slightly. He waited for a long time with his heart in his mouth, but the expected sharp teeth did not come.

The snake licked his wrist and gradually moved to his slender and Fair Complexion palm. It gently licked and kissed along the lines of his palm, not even letting go of the gaps between his fingers.

It was as if the snake had planted numerous kisses on his palm.

How could Xie Heng bear to drink the blood of his sweetheart?
