Having found a demon, I've decided to raise her.

Raphael looked at Gu Qing, who was frozen in place by a single glance from her, and frowned as he looked into those red eyes, saying—

"I felt something was off by the river earlier, so it was you... But what good is one eye anyway?"

Who?

Gu Qing was somewhat confused by Raphael's words. Didn't this angel already know that Lilith was inside her? What did he mean by saying this now?

Whoosh!

Before she could figure it out, several feathers shot out like arrows, piercing through Gu Qing, but Gu Qing's body slowly faded away, clearly another illusion.

Gu Qing arrived at what seemed to be a safe location, but as soon as she stepped on the ground, a dazzling white light appeared!

"Oops……"

Gu Qing watched helplessly as white chains emerged from the formation, binding her tightly with a clanging sound.

Bang!

He was forced to the ground, the chains were taut, and he had difficulty breathing.

"Sister Gu Qing."

Seeing Gu Qing sweating profusely in pain, the landlady quickly ran over and squatted down, watching as the white chains burned wisps of white steam from her body.

However, the landlady herself felt nothing when she touched it, so it seems to be a spell specifically designed for demons and harmless to other things.

The little girl sat on the ground like a duck, looking at the mess around her. No one was capable of resisting anymore. Chen Ming's inner energy was sealed, and Dong Yi and Gu Qing could only buy them this much time.

But I can't do anything...

It's always been like this, because she's a child and can't do anything, so she can only rely on the people she cherishes to protect her.

And it remains the same now...

The landlady watched helplessly as Raphael turned to face Dong Yi, who was staggering to her feet. Chen Ming, standing behind Dong Yi, took her hand and said—

"That's enough, stop hitting him, stop."

Don't fight over me anymore.

"..."

Dong Yi looked at him speechlessly, unsure whether he was joking or not, but she still smiled and said—

"I can't do it."

"Dong Yi?"

"I can't just watch you get taken away, and I can't just give you up like this..."

She reached out towards the ceiling and whispered—

"Sword, come..."

The flying sword trembled slightly, but the weak force was not enough to control it immediately. Fortunately, Raphael stood not far away, no longer moving forward, looking at Dong Yi as if waiting.

Dong Yi wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, and after several more attempts, the flying sword stuck in the ceiling finally fell off and, with inertia, plunged into the floor in front of her.

She reached out and struggled to pull it up.

That one movement almost made her fall, and Chen Ming supported her with heartache.

She turned to look at him, smiled, but with a hint of sadness in her expression—

"You know what? I've never regretted anything so much, regretted not studying harder..."

If she had worked harder in the past and gained more strength, wouldn't she have had a better chance of keeping him? Wouldn't she have prevented him from being taken away?

Chen Ming's eyes widened, and he bit his lower lip tightly. Hearing such words from the mouth of this good-for-nothing made his heart tremble slightly.

Dong Yi held his sword horizontally in front of him, panting as he watched the Angel King approach step by step. This was the first time in his life he felt such a strong desire to lose.

She is someone who gives up easily and is very easygoing, lacking any principles, which is why she is bullied and subdued by him in every way.

But even now, though she's been beaten to the ground and feels like her body is falling apart, she refuses to give up. Because her most precious possessions are right behind her, how can she possibly retreat a single step!

She was filled with regret, if only she had the power...

However, she was just a useless person who couldn't do anything.

The biggest difference between her and Raphael is that even if she died, she couldn't keep Chen Ming, while Raphael could take him away effortlessly and protect him very well...

"……husband."

"what?"

Chen Ming looked at Dong Yi's slender back blocking his way, his mind a jumble of emotions. This feeling of helplessness was so awful, and seeing his wife so heartbroken made his heart ache even more.

Dong Yi seemed to take a deep breath, and said with a trembling voice—

"If you're no longer by my side in the future, please don't forget me..."

I've been taken to a place I can't reach. I can't see you, but please don't forget me. I will keep trying, even if it means giving back all the time I've wasted in this life. One day, I will definitely see you again.

so……

Please don't forget me, okay...?

pat.

The glistening teardrops fell to the ground, spreading into small puddles, shaped like stars.

I'm sorry, your useless wife, she can't do anything... nothing at all...

A warm feeling suddenly enveloped her hand. Chen Ming grasped her icy palm, brought it to his lips, and said—

"Fool, how could I forget you? We're husband and wife, we'll always be together."

She gently patted her head, then pursed her lips and looked at Raphael.

Raphael paused, looking at him, and seemed to flinch slightly, sensing his displeasure... What if she had displeased her master...?

Chen Ming looked at her and said—

“Raphael…”

"Yes, yes..."

Raphael's heart was in his throat.

Chen Ming said—

"Although I said I would be with you forever, it's the same for everyone else. What I hope for is not only to be with you, but also with my family. I can't let go of any of them. Doesn't that sound like a jerk?"

He chuckled softly, grasped Dong Yi's hand that was gripping the sword hilt, and said—

"But I have no doubt about it. You say you are selfish, but I also have my own selfishness. My selfishness is... that all the people I love and those who love me become my family, even if it means trampling on the ideas of some others, I will carry it out to the end."

That's such a scumbag's statement; he's completely dropped the pretense.

Raphael looked at him with some confusion.

What should you do if your own wishes conflict with your master's wishes?

"Well!"

She covered her head, seemingly in some pain; her wings trembled slightly, and the purple light in her eyes flickered.

Chapter 520 Magical Girl, Qin Ying

Master...Husband...

For her to use such an intimate and shy nickname, Chen Ming must hold a very high place in her heart. She has always listened to and obeyed his every word.

I always thought that as long as he was doing well and happy, that was enough.

but now……

"It still doesn't work..."

Raphael's hands hung down, black lightning seemed to emanate from his white feathers, which slowly turned purplish-black from the base of his wings, and his deep eyes looked at Chen Ming.

He stood next to someone else.

He should belong to me alone!

Unable to persuade him, and unable to deceive himself into believing it was for his own good, Raphael had reached a point where he could no longer escape.

Fortunately, she is now invincible.

tread……

She took another step, her eyes seemingly burning with purple flames, and said—

“Master, come with me… I will always be by your side, always be good to you, and always listen to you… I will repay others a thousand times, ten thousand times the kindness they show you… Just look at me.”

Chen Ming watched as Raphael's aura grew stronger, his eyes unwavering, and firmly said to her—

"no way."

Perhaps being forever loved by the angel king, along with Raphael, is a kind of happiness.

But he carries so many expectations and so much attachment on his shoulders; he can't bear to abandon others and seek happiness only for himself.

Raphael's hand trembled slightly, his eyes turned fierce, and he said—

"Come here!"

If you can't win an argument, then just use brute force to take him. Forced marriages aren't sweet, but they'll quench your thirst!

There is no turning back now.

Countless feathers shot out from behind her, creating countless ripples that shook the very fabric of space. Each strike seemed to shatter time and space, and the air itself seemed to be killed, making no sound whatsoever.

Raphael wanted to simply deprive them of their mobility; after all, even if they were injured, she could heal them without worrying about going too far.

Dong Yi's brown eyes reflected the dense, bullet-like feathers, and he couldn't help but close them.

But suddenly a sound came from behind—

"Go, Ruri!"

Chen Ming finally couldn't resist using the pattern that Liuli had given him. The pattern on the back of his hand turned into white light and dissipated, gathering into a small figure in the void.

"Meow?"
