The Emperor Wants To Marry The Doctor

yue.

When an ordinary high-level fiend broke through, it would indeed emanate an immense suppression that would cause the surrounding low-level fiends to feel a fatal threat.
Due to this, they would avoid the area.

However, it was different when a ninth-grade fiend tried to break through and become a legendary fiend.
Even though the suppression was terrifying, the bloodline of a legendary fiend had a natural attraction toward the other fiends.

The concept of varying standards that was etched into their bones would lead them to respect and admire the legendary fiend.
This would cause them to continue going forward to pay their respects to the legendary fiend, even if they had to endure that terrifying suppression.

Now that the ninth-grade fiend caused such a huge commotion, there should logically be quite a few fiends around.

Ye Ranran nodded seriously.

…

After another period of time, Chu Liuyue felt that the surrounding air became stickier.
Every step she took forward used up even more energy than before.

It was as if a very heavy mountain was suppressing them, causing them to be unable to breathe.

Chu Liuyue frowned. This should be caused by that ninth-grade fiend’s suppression!

After walking a distance in such an effortful manner, Chu Liuyue’s back was drenched in sweat.
She took a deep breath in and finally stopped.
“Let’s rest for a while.”

It was as if Mu Hongyu and Ye Ranran had met their lifesaver as they hurriedly found a place to sit down and rest.

Chu Liuyue sat down cross-legged at the side.

Qiang Wanzhou stood beside her with his back straight.

Chu Liuyue waved toward him.
“Little Zhou, sit down and rest too.”

From this angle, she could coincidentally see his lips that were slightly pale.
It was obvious that this journey wasn’t easy for him either.

Qiang Wanzhou’s voice was as cold as usual.
“I can just stand.”

Just in case they met with any danger, it would be more convenient to move if they were standing instead of sitting down.
He did this as well when he followed that person back then.

Chu Liuyue was caught between laughter and tears.
She naturally knew what Qiang Wanzhou was thinking.
“Little Zhou, you don’t have to worry too much.
This area should already be within that ninth-grade fiend’s territory.
Other than itself, anyone else who comes here would be like us.
It won’t be too dangerous now.
Besides, you should rest.”

However, Qiang Wanzhou was very stubborn.
He shook his head and pressed his thin lips against each other tightly.
His forehead was filled with beads of sweat as they followed his very intricate appearance and neck and trickled down, finally landing inside his gray clothes.

It was obvious that he wasn’t having a good time now.

Chu Liuyue sighed lightly and said, “Little Zhou, the one-month agreement is already up.
You’re no longer my servant, so you don’t have to do this.”

But Qiang Wanzhou suddenly shook his body and looked at her as anxiety flashed across his eyes.
“You don’t want me anymore?”

W-where did all of this come from? Chu Liuyue was dazed.
“No, don’t misunderstand.
I just feel that since our agreement has already ended, you don’t have to see yourself as my servant.
Besides, you’re also my junior brother now, right?”

When Chu Liuyue said this, her lips curved up slightly, and her eyes seemed to be dazzling.

Qiang Wanzhou heaved a sigh of relief.
“No need.”

Then, as if he was afraid that Chu Liuyue would misunderstand, he said again, “I think this is quite good.”

He was already used to such days and did not want to change.

Seeing his stubbornness, Chu Liuyue knew that there was no use convincing him otherwise.
Thus, she decisively gave up.

Anyway, this child always has some strange persistence… It’s not bad if he becomes my junior brother and follows me like this. Chu Liuyue was thinking of this when a piercing sound was heard beside her ear.

A harsh, cold air came toward her neck.

Her heart was suddenly alarmed! Danger!
