Let the Villain Go

Chapter 54



Lin Sheng blinked, and he looked at the horrible demon in front of him in disbelief. He looked at Chu Qianxun who was lifted up by Gao Yan in the distance.

His heart was full of fear and confusion.

At the moment before dying, all the pictures in the past flashed in front of his eyes. He worked on the construction site. Although he was a little tired, his life was very stable. His coworker’s daughter Xiaocui was very kind to him. The girl blushed and looked at him with admiration. Unlike the woman in front of him who looked at him coldly, without a trace of emotion.

With the sudden emergence of two demons, the dozens of soldiers and ordinary people also died.

There was no time for sorrow. There was no time to even collect the corpses. All the people quickly packed up the rice stained with blood and brought the food exchanged with their lives back to Spring City. And those who died on the battlefield were left in the fertile land of the wilderness.

Lin Sheng was dead, and Chu Qianxun was also very hurt. After treatment, she still had to lay in bed for half a month.

When they were too busy, people generally didn’t care about grief and happiness. But once they get leisure time, especially after lying in bed for half a month, their mind would inevitably float left and right.

Sometimes at night, looking at the bright moon hanging in the sky, Chu Qianxun would think of the moonlit night seen in the desert.

Perhaps it was because Ye Peitian was afraid of darkness. The windows of every room in that castle were very large. He laid in the room and slept, so that he could clearly see the starry sky in the desert at night.

What was that person doing at the moment? Chu Qianxun often thought of it. Was he still sleeping all night or sitting in that small room, reading by the lights.

She failed to keep her promise to visit him. Did he get angry because of it?

After these days, Chu Qianxun was almost certain that the world she dreamed of definitely existed in a certain place. Gao Yan’s indifferent appearance hid deep tenderness. Jiang Xiao’s outstanding ice moves, and Ye Peitian’s notorious softness, especially his almost identical cooking skills made her think so. It could never be just a coincidence.

But no matter how intimate the relationship between Chu Qianxun and Ye Peitian in that dream was, here, they were still just two strangers. He was a prestigious ninth-rank demon who lived alone in a desert castle. If she approached him, she was destined to become a dodder flower in the castle.

(dodder flower- dependent on him)

Chu Qianxun recognized the reality and sighed in her heart. She reached out to pinch the tender sprouts of affection that had just sprouted and let it disperse with the wind.

Gao Yan carried a food box and pushed open the door and walked in.

“Look what I bought you today?”

She opened the lid like a treasure, took out two small dishes, and poured out two bowls of white porridge. 

A small plate of cucumber with salt, and a plate of fried egg pie.

“This is rare food. White porridge, cucumber and eggs. Eat while it’s hot,” Gao Yan gave Chu Qianxun a pair of chopsticks and sat down opposite her.

These few things were indeed rare. Chu Qianxun was interested. She sat up and took a chopstick and got the cucumber.

“Ah, it’s so salty,” Chu Qianxun complained, “It’s too salty.”

Because she didn’t want to waste it, she swallowed it and then took a few big mouthfuls of porridge.

“What’s the matter with you? Do you still complain about such a good thing?” Gao Yan argued.

She lifted her chopsticks and took a bite. She almost spat it out, “It’s really salty. But it’s a rare vegetable. I can eat a few more.”

Chu Qianxun was drinking porridge slowly. She took one bite of the salty cucumber and the fried egg, and thought of the yellow sand table.

The dishes served by the man were always fresh and delicious, with moderate saltiness and spicy taste, exactly like they were made according to her taste.

His fingers were fair and beautiful. The man who served dishes was also handsome.

While cooking, he stood in front of the stove with his back to her. His legs were long and straight and his head was slightly lowered. The soft and curly hair shook, revealing a clean and beautiful neck.

Chu Qianxun had just strangled and pummeled out the prouts and tender buds from her heart which somehow swayed in the wind.

When Gao Yan came up again at noon, Chu Qianxun disappeared. She left a piece of paper on the table, “I am leaving for a few days, don’t miss me.”

Chu Qianxun’s injury was not healed, so she didn’t dare to carelessly rush. She followed the caravan from Spring City to Barang, and then entered the desert from Barang.

When she arrived at the yellow sand castle, it was the evening.

The orange sunset on the desert horizon slowly sank. Evening sunshine in the setting sun left a layer of orange glow in the air.

Chu Qianxun reached out and knocked on the door of the castle. Her heart was jumping as she held her breath. After a long time, there was no movement in the castle.
