Demon Lord was not a patient person. Hearing that Lin Chujiu had found a lot of reasons for not returning to the capital, he immediately said with a black face: “Since you don’t want to go back to the capital, go to the Devil’s Palace.” When she arrives at the Devil’s Palace, he will let this woman understand the hardship of life and the difference of status.
She was indeed a girl who grew up in a honeypot. She doesn’t know how hard life can be. She can give up her status for a little thing. She will never achieve honor if she continues to be like this. She was simply stupid.
“No, I don’t want to go to the Devil’s Palace. Devi… Demon Lord, it’s enough for you to take me out of the woods. I can’t bother you anymore.” Lin Chujiu cried and said all the words she had in his heart. She felt much better and made a decision.
“Where do you want to go if you don’t go to the Devil’s Palace? Go back to the capital? Do you know what will happen to a weak woman like you living alone?” Even in a peaceful world, there was cannibalism. Lin Chujiu, a weak woman who goes on the road alone, she will be robbed by others.
“I can protect myself.” Lin Chujiu was confident that she can protect herself as long as she doesn’t encounter professional assassins.
“Hmph…” Demon Lord snorted coldly, “I want to see how you can protect yourself.” Then Demon Lord stepped forward and attacked Lin Chujiu.
“Hmm…” Lin Chujiu didn’t expect that Demon Lord would attack her at all. She stared at Demon Lord with wide eyes. Her body softened as she closed her eyes reluctantly. “Why…”
“Stupid woman, you think you’re powerful.” Demon Lord stretched out his hand, held Lin Chujiu in his arms, and blew a whistle. Soon, a black horse ran over from the other end of the path.
*Daddada* The horse stopped beside Demon Lord and looked up at him with an arrogant attitude, just like Demon Lord.
Demon Lord patted the horse’s head, jumped onto the horse’s back with Lin Chujiu in his arms, pulled the reins and turned the horse’s head, and adjusted a comfortable position for Lin Chujiu.
“Pa!” Demon Lord didn’t hurry to go but snapped his fingers.
“Master” Two men dressed in black came out of the woods, clasping their fists and standing respectfully on one side.
“Notify the Jinwuwei to pick her up.” Demon Lord looked down at Lin Chujiu, and the corners of his mouth slightly curved.
He wanted to know what kind of expression Lin Chujiu would have when she woke up and found that she had to go back to the capital.
“Yes.” The man dressed in black bowed his head.
Demon Lord waved his hand for the two men to step back, then held Lin Chujiu in his arms and rode away.
After running all the way, before dark, Demon Lord brought people to the post station without disturbing anyone. Demon Lord took Lin Chujiu and sneaked into the guest room of the post station.
“Stupid woman, honestly follow the army back to the capital. The outside world is not as simple as you think.” Demon Lord patted Lin Chujiu on the back and turned away.
Not long after Demon Lord left, Lin Chujiu woke up quietly, rubbed her sore neck, and looked up at the environment in front of him.
The house was very simple. It doesn’t look like an inn. There was no guard outside. It was not the Devil’s Palace.
“Where did Demon Lord leave me?” Lin Chujiu didn’t know how long she was unconscious. She rubbed her sore arms and legs and walked out of bed.
There was no one outside the door. The sky was very dark and the range of visible objects was not more than one meter. Lin Chujiu dared not walk around. She stood at the door and shouted, “Is there anyone?”
No one responds!
Lin Chujiu waited for a moment, and then shouted again: “Is there anyone?”
Still, no one responds.
Lin Chujiu hesitated and decided to go outside. Along the corridor, Lin Chujiu walked carefully. As soon as she reached the ground, she heard the sound of neat and uniform footsteps.
