Chapter 5 — Raising Ginseng into a Lady

My tears flow like a stream. This idiot. He's clearly about to die, so why bother trying to speak loudly? At that moment, a mutation occurred. The Great Elder, who had been blown away, suddenly stood up, a black nail appeared in his hand, stabbing straight into Lau Xa Da's back.

“If Your Majesty is stubborn, don't blame this cruel old man!”

That's—the soul-locking nail! Specialized for killing ghosts! Lau Xa Da's body stopped, spit out a mouthful of black blood, and slowly fell down.

“Lau Xa Da!”

I screamed, rushing to hug him. The great elder smiled evilly and approached: "Now, no one can save you anymore." I hugged Lau Xa Da's increasingly cold body, my mind blank. The great elder smiled sinisterly, the blade in his hand glinting like greedy eyes.

“Little ginseng, obediently hand over your heart, I can still let you die a little faster.”

I bowed my head to look at the once extravagant Demon Monk, who was now like a broken doll, his breath so fragile that it was almost invisible. He opened his eyes with difficulty, his bloody fingers gently pulled the hem of my shirt.

“Run…”

It was just one word, but it had put all his last strength into it. Run? Where can we run? The entire Demon Palace is blocked, even if I grow wings I can't escape. What's more, if I run away, what will happen to him? Looking at the old and disgusting face of the great elder, an unprecedented anger suddenly arose in my heart. I'm afraid of death. But I'm even more afraid of him dying.

“Do you want my heart?”

I slowly stood up, dried my tears, and looked straight at the great elder with cold eyes.

"Then let's see if you have the courage to get it!"

The great elder was stunned, then burst out laughing: "It's just a newly transformed ginseng, but dares to be so big?" He didn't say any more, just swung the knife and stabbed. I don't dodge. Right at the moment the knife was about to touch my body, my body suddenly emitted a dazzling golden light. It's not demonic energy, nor is it spiritual energy. But—divine power! The golden light spread like a wave, instantly sending the great elder flying. He fell hard to the ground, spitting blood, looking at me in panic: "This... what power is this?!" I lowered my head and looked at my hands, equally confused. Am I not ginseng essence? Why do you have divine power? Before I could understand, a familiar old voice rang out in my head:

“Hey, I wanted to give you more training, but I didn't expect this Demon World brat to be so weak.”

It's grandpa!

"Daughter, don't be dumb anymore, quickly use your blood to save it! You are not an ordinary ginseng, you are the spirit ginseng companion of the ancient Divine Grass—the Nine Turns Soul Grass! Your blood not only detoxifies, but can also regenerate Demon Bones!"

Nine Zhuan Soul Rejuvenation Grass? Spirit ginseng co-born? I was stunned when I heard it, but I understood the point: my blood could save him! Without thinking much, I bit my wrist and tore it. Blood flowed profusely, dripping down Lau Xa Da's wound. Miracles happen. The wound left by the soul lock nail was filled with black smoke, and the wound healed clearly. Lau Xa Da's pale face gradually regained its blood color, and the demon energy around his body also became stable. The great elder saw this and was so scared that his soul was scattered.

“No way! This is impossible!”

He staggered and stood up to run.

“Want to run?”

A cold voice rang out. Lau Xa Da slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were no longer dark red, but a noble golden purple color. He waved his hand lightly, and the great elder was like a chicken drawn to the front.

"You dare to hurt my people, but you still want to leave with your life?"

“Crack!”

With a crisp sound, the ancient elder was broken. Lau Xa Da conveniently threw away the body and turned to look at me. The murderous intent in his eyes disappeared, replaced by endless gentleness and unrelenting fear.

“Give me your hand.”

He pulled my hand and gently brought it to his mouth. His tongue was warm, licking every drop of blood from my wrist. My whole body was numb. Read full page at Nguyet Hoa Canh's face. His face turned red and he wanted to withdraw his hand, but he held him tighter.

“Don't move, I'm stopping the bleeding.”

Wherever his tongue touched, the wound immediately healed, leaving no trace.

“From now on, don't do such stupid things again.”

He raised his head, his eyes extremely serious: "Your blood is more precious than my life." I pouted: "I don't know who told me to run just now." He laughed and hugged me tightly.

“It's your seat that's wrong.”

“Consider it as compensation, from now on, the Demon World—whatever you say is what it is.”

The Great Elder who rebelled was executed, and the Demon World experienced an unprecedented purge. Lau Xa Da acted like thunder, extinguishing all those who dared to protest. As for me—become the righteous little ancestor of the Demon World. Everyone knows that it is better to offend Ma Ton than to offend that ginseng root. Offending Ma Ton will at most result in death. Angry ginseng is worse than death. From then on, my life began to "bloom", but in my heart I was still worried about the piece of jade that my grandfather left behind. Next month is the Immortal Conference. Grandpa said to go call for help, but he didn't know if they had found him yet. Although Lau Xa Da is very good to me, after all, I am a spirit grass of the Immortal world, so staying in the Demon world forever is not the way. Furthermore, I always have the feeling that my grandfather is hiding a very big secret from me. So, I started complaining to Lau Xa Da.

“I want to go to the fairy festival~”

I hugged his hand and pretended to be spoiled. Lau Xa Da was reviewing the chapter, when he heard that, his pen stopped: "Don't go."

“What's wrong?”

"The old men of the Immortal World are full of hypocrites and hypocrites, their bellies are full of snakes and centipedes. You are a spiritual herb, going there is like a goat entering a tiger's mouth."

“But he will protect me~”

I blinked my big eyes, looking at him expectantly. "You are Demon Lord, who dares to touch the child under your eyelids?" This flattery hits right where it itches. The corner of Lau Xa Da's lips curled up, clearly enjoying it.

"If you want to go, then go."

He pinched my nose: "But you have to stay close to me, don't run around."

“Obey!”

The First Alliance Congress was held at Kunlun Mountain.
