Chapter 74
HEART PROTECTION: CHAPTER 74
Gradually, Yan Hui's movements slowed . She no longer kicked Tian Yao, and her teeth slowly loosened from Tian Yao's neck . Blood stained her lips red, making them seem extra bright .
Tian Yao felt Yan Hui's rough breath against his neck . Compared to the pain from Yan Hui's bite, this barely felt sensation made Tian Yao feel even worse . He slightly pushed away Yan Hui .
"Back to reality?"
Yan Hui didn't reply for a long time . Tian Yao almost thought she had fallen asleep when Yan Hui bitterly laughed . "Why didn't you let me lose myself in the illusion? At least this place didn't have so many sinister plots . Even though I knew it was fake . . . . . . . . "
Tian Yao was silent for a brief moment before responding: "Don't you want to avenge your senior disciple?"
Yan Hui's gaze grew a little colder .
That's right . Right now, that was what most motivated her to persevere switching to demon cultivation .
She wanted Ling Fei to pay for the price of her actions .
"Avenge for what? Nothing's good about that . " From somewhere came the sound of a crisp voice: "There's no need to think all day about killing thing . In my illusion, everything is good . It's so nice . Nothing here will hurt you . It'll always be sunny . You'll always be happy . Why are you so determined to leave?"
Tian Yao's expression sobered up . His eyes were cold . With a wave of his hand, he formed a fiery whip and lashed it toward where the voice was coming from .
"Ah!" The flame suddenly hit a black fog . A child's voice yelped, and the illusion broke apart in a split second . It was like the Chen Xing Mountain surroundings were burned away . They crackled into ashes and were carried away in the end .
Outside of the illusion was a secluded palace with blue-lighted pillars . The palace was large and empty . As you looked up, there was only darkness . The ceiling couldn't be seen .
And where Tian Yao's whip struck laid a little girl lying on the stairs . She was clutching her arm, clothes tattered . The little girl looked at Tian Yao and Yan Hui and tried not to cry: "You guys are bad! I made so many illusions for you, and you guys weren't satisfied . And you even hit me! Bad people!"
Tian Yao narrowed his eyes . He heard Yan Hui suddenly speak up: "It's an illusion demon . "
Tian Yao looked over . Yan Hui still had traces of undried tears in the corner of her eyes, but the sorrow and despair was gone from her face . Even though her heart still harbored anguish, she was still the clear-heated Yan Hui in the face of danger .
This was probably Yan Hui's strong point .
"Burn her hair, " told Yan Hui to Tian Yao .
Tian Yao didn't question it . He threw a fireball over . The pitiful little girl, who was still lying on the stairs and clutching her arm, immediately shot up . With a flip, she ran to hide behind the throne .
She ran extremely fast . In almost a flash, her figure disappeared behind the throne . Even though it was Tian Yao's fireball, it still could only strike against the throne .
The little girl behind the throne seat clutched at her own hair and cautiously poked her head out . Then she fiercely glared at Yan Hui: "Old woman, you dare attack my weak point . "
Yan Hui ignored her . She only talked to Tian Yao: "An illusion demon's magic is all in their hair . Burn her hair away, she can't do any more evil deeds . "
"What evil deeds!" The little illusion demon was furious . "I clearly gave you such a happy illusion! What you saw was once a very happy moment in your life! And you even said I do evil deeds! I clearly let you return back to relive a happy time, alright!"
"So much nonsense," said Yan Hui . "Cut out her tongue too . "
The little demon gritted her teeth . She touched some unknown mechanism behind the throne . The stone tile under Yan Hui suddenly disappeared . When Tian Yao saw Yan Hui was about to drop into a dark passage, he reached out and pushed her to the side . Yan Hui was pushed, but she didn't fall over . Tian Yao didn't stop there . With a flick of his hand, he launched another fireball .
The illusion demon once again shrank behind the throne . However, she didn't think that once the fireball struck the throne, it didn't stop there . The fireball didn't disappear . It actually exploded into a field of fire . The throne's surroundings were ablaze .
Even the little demon behind the throne was caught on fire .
Her hair caught on fire . The little demon started to shriek . She ran out like a chicken whose butt caught on fire . She was patting at her hair as she ran . It just so happened the direction the young demon ran was where Yan Hui stood .

Yan Hui watched the little demon on fire run over . Yan Hui dodged to the side but the little demon determinedly threw herself at Yan Hui: "Old woman! Today I'm going to take you back with me!"
Yan Hui already didn't have much cultivation left out . Earlier, she even soaked in Black River . She only had a pitiful amount of cultivation . Even though her wu xing affinity was fire, in this situation, being burned by Tian Yao's fire had no good outcome for her .
When Tian Yao what was happening, he snapped his fingers . The fire on the little demon's body immediately went out .
However, the demon had already leapt onto Yan Hui .
Although the illusion demon was small, she was quite strong . Yan Hui was knocked down onto the ground . "Old woman! I'm going to claw your face off!"
The two of them rolled over . Yan Hui at least became angry at those words: "Call me that once, I'll let it slide . Call me that three times, even the Heavenly God won't save you . Today, I'm going to rip your hair off and teach you how to be a good demon!"
Yan Hui grabbed a fistful of the illusion demon's hair . Not to be outdone, the demon also grabbed Yan Hui's hair . The two rolled around on the ground, going at each other with their bare hands . No magic was used . There was nothing civilized in their manner . It was like a wild fight between two children rolling around on the ground .
Tian Yao just blankly stared at the sight . He watched for a long time with clasped hands, just waiting for the outcome .
In the end, Yan Hui probably realize fighting with a bratty kid was too embarrassing . She pushed at the demon's chest, wanting to push the demon away . Who would've thought with that push, the little demon would suddenly become indignant: "Old Woman dares touch my chest!"
Yan Hui was so mad she could spit blood: "You don't have a chest! It's flat like a back! I can't even tell the difference!"
The illusion demon was infuriated by those words . She reached out to choke Yan Hui .
Tian Yao narrowed his eyes when he saw the illusion demon was going to endanger Yan Hui's life . He was just about to move when Yan Hui used her superiority of a longer reach . At once, she gripped the little demon's neck . In that moment, Yan Hui's pinkie accidentally slipped through the ring hung around the little demon's neck .
"Ah!"

The little demon cried out in fear .
Yan Hui didn't think much about it . She just noticed the illusion demon's strength lessened, and so Yan Hui tossed the demon aside . Her throw was so strong that the necklace the demon was wearing broke . However, the ring stayed on Yan Hui's finger .
Yan Hui had just fought the world's most classless fight . Her heart was still filled with fire . She crawled back up and rearranged her clothes .
The little demon that was tossed way flipped in mid-air and landed steadily back on her feet . She glared at Yan Hui and spoke through gnashing teeth: "You shameful thing! How dare you touch my ring!" She didn't even get all the words out when her expression became extremely strange . Her entire body started to tremble like it was cramping all over .
Yan Hui looked at the ring on her little finger: "I'll return it . " She was just about to raise her hand to take it off when the little illusion demon's expression suddenly changed . "Stop!" The little demon screeched . Her voice could raise the ceiling . "Don't move!"
Yan Hui flinched: "What are you yelling for?!"
The illusion demon gritted her teeth: "The ring . . . . . . can't be taken off . "
"Why not?" Yan Hui looked at the plain ring on her finger . "I don't want your things . I'll return it . "
"Don't give it back!" The little demon immediately stopped Yan Hui . She hesitated and thought it over several times before gritting her teeth: "That ring recognizes my master . Us illusion demons only recognize one master in our lifetime . If our master abandons us, then there is only death . . . . . . . "
Yan Hui was stunned . She turned her head to look at Tian Yao . Then she responded: "So I'm your master?"
The little illusion demon clenched her teeth and didn't respond .
Yan Hui said: "Knew down and call me Beautiful Master . "
The little demon stuck out her lip and didn't say a word .
Yan Hui went to take off the ring .

The little demon immediately knelt down and practically prostrated herself: "I offended you just now . Beautiful Master, I was wrong . "
Upon see that, Yan Hui's mouth curved, and a smile broke out . She looked back at Tian Yao . At first, she wanted him to see the little demon admitting defeat . However, she didn't expect to see him watching her smiling expression .
It was like he was always watching her, gazing at her . Letting her have fun, letting her vent, a face full of . . . . . . . .
Indulgence .
Yan Hui's heart sped up . It felt like she had some kind of disease . Tian Yao was a demon who experienced so much hurt and felt so much hurt . How was he able to look at her with that kind of expression?
They were, at best, just allies . That's all .
Yan Hui tossed the thought aside and didn't think about it anymore . She just walked two steps forward towards the still kneeling illusion demon: "What place is this? Why are you here? And why did you want to harm us? Is there some scheme?"
It seemed like the little demon was acting out a corpse . She didn't even lift her head and just laid there . Her voice was muffled: "What schemes would an illusion demon have? We illusion demons eat emotions . We kindly create illusions for people to lose themselves in . Then we eat the emotions people feel from being in our illusions . That's how we get full . "
"This place is our palace . Above us, there was a battle 50 years ago between the demons and xian . An abyss was ripped into San Chong Mountain, and the earth shook . The tremor went southwest all the way until it reached Black River . We illusion demons clan lived under Black River year-round . The quake shrank Black River, and that shrank our livelihood . Problems came one right after another . In the end, the entire clan left . I didn't want to leave, so I stayed behind . I've been here up till now . "
"50 years ago?" Yan Hui frowned . "Even though demons grow slowly, it's not that slow like how you are right now . 50 years and you still have a child's body . . . . . . . . "
"So what?" The illusion demon cut Yan Hui off . "When there's a lot to eat, us illusion demons grow fast . When there's less to eat, we grow slow . I didn't have anything to eat these past few decades . Of course I grew slowly . "
Yan Hui frowned: "So when you finally caught me, you started to prepare to use me for food?"
"Ya, but I absolutely treat everyone fairly . That guy there is so strong, but I also planned to eat from him . It's just that us illusion demons have our own particular tastes . Some illusion demons make them feel fear . Some feed off of fear . Every illusion demon has there own preferred emotion, so every illusion we cast is different . I like to eat happy and cheerful emotions . It was such a pity that his happiness was so little that I couldn't trap him . "
Tian Yao also had an illusion spell cast on him?
