The devil is alluring

Chapter 23 Returning to the Courtyard
With a movement of Bingxue's figure, he disappeared in place in an instant.A black shadow quickly flashed across the dense woods, and the surrounding spirit beasts that were looking for food raised their heads slightly and looked around vigilantly, but they didn't find anything unusual, it was all their own illusion.

When Bingxue came to the small courtyard where he lived six years ago, weeds were still reborn, without any change, and the tables and chairs were as before he left, without a trace of dust.Suddenly, with keen perception, he observed a strange aura around him. Although it was well hidden, it was still discovered by this ghost in the killer world.

Bingxue looked up at the empty tree at a 45° angle in front of him on the left, and softly shouted: "Come out."

The breath trembled slightly, obviously showing surprise.Then a black figure flashed out instantly, and came in front of Bingxue.The man was dressed in black and strong, tall and strong, but not rough.A silver mask with a black flame shape covered half of his face, but from the exposed white skin, it could be seen that this person must have a handsome face.An icy murderous aura exuded from all over his body, proving that this person was a person living in darkness.

Bingxue looked at the mask full of arrogance, and looked at the amazement that flashed past in those cold eyes, which was so fast that people couldn't catch it. In his heart, Bingxue secretly admired this person's character.Smiling slightly, he said softly: "People from Mo Island, the foster father sent you here."

Hearing Bingxue's words, the man in black was slightly surprised, then immediately put away his murderous aura, knelt down on one leg, put his hands on his chest, and said respectfully to Bingxue: "My subordinate, An Ye, has seen the Seventh Young Master. "

"Young master?" Seeing the respect in the cold eyes of the man in black, Bingxue confirmed his thoughts, but this young master really puzzled Bingxue.

"Yes, the third master returned to Mo Island six years ago and reported to the Patriarch the news that Young Master Xue was still alive. Within a year, the Patriarch announced the identity of the Seventh Young Master to the people of Mo Island and all its branches. The Lord's lost relatives and grandchildren. Among the three generations of the Patriarch's direct lineage, the Seventh Young Master ranks seventh. Because the successor of the Island Master has not been actually selected among the three generations, the several young masters are collectively called the Young Master, and they are the descendants of Mo Island. Young master." The man in black had no feeling in his tone, cold and frightening, but he still explained carefully to Bingxue.

"So that's the case." Bingxue nodded clearly. "When did you come?" I haven't contacted Mo Dao since I came out, so my grandfather and adoptive father probably don't know how to do fortune-telling.

"This subordinate was ordered to come here five years ago to wait for the Seventh Young Master to leave the customs, and as the young master's personal guard to protect the Seventh Young Master." From the tone of the man in black, An Ye, Bingxue didn't hear a trace of it. Dissatisfied, it can be seen that he is absolutely loyal to Mo Dao, and he has been waiting here for five years alone. This endurance is even more admirable to Bingxue.This made Bing Xue's defense against him completely disappear.

"Thank you for your hard work, and... thank you." Bingxue smiled generously and gave himself the most sincere thanks.

An Ye's body trembled slightly, and surprise appeared in his cold eyes.Although he never complained about this task, he is grateful and loyal to Mo Island from the bottom of his heart. The owner of Mo Island not only saved him, but also gave him the courage and belief to live.But all these years, my heart is still cold, without any signs of life.

Today, the gentle words of the little master who just met made the heart that had been frozen for many years tremble slightly, and that gentle smile flowed into his heart involuntarily like a ray of warm sunshine.Such tenderness overwhelmed him, but he was not disgusted at all.It turned out that this is what people often call warmth, and it was the first time he felt it since he was born.
