CH 18.1
Demon King/The Parting of the Orchid and Cang
Little Orchid never expected the Shuo Feng sword that Dong Fang Qing Cang has boundlessly and laboriously took back, said would toss and did tossedâ¦
He tossed the sword in Crystal City at the demon market for the craftsmen to make the scabbard and then rode the clouds to Lucheng.
Lucheng is one of the key military region of Great Jin. The city tower has been built in rain and wind for three hundred years, but now itâs wobbly. The reason is not anything elseâGreat Jin collected high, burdensome taxes and every three year there would be a drought. While the peopleâs sufferings were untold, the emperor did not care for imperial politics and each night would enjoy lavishly. In the end, it has caused the citizens to raise the flag and revolted.
The rebel army met the corrupted government army and like slitting a hot knife through butter, they killed all the way to Lucheng.
But Lucheng was still an key, strategic town for the military. The rebel army did not attack with success, and dug around the city to besiege. They intended to confine the army of Lucheng to death and forced the general in charge of the city to surrender. But over the years, Lucheng has stored supplies and the general guarding the city refused to surrender.
Until today, the rebel army has camped in front of Luchengâs city walls for eight days. Continuing like this, only afraid that the army provisions of the rebels would have problems.
âThe day after tomorrow they will definitely siege the city.â Little Orchid stood on the walls of Lucheng and lowered head to look at the army outside from afar, âOften master will write siege after ten days.â
Dong Fang Qing Cang was naturally uninterested with this and he turned around to walk on the wall that was guarded strictly. He has already performed the hidden body spell and whooshed past in front of the guarding soldiersâ faces without slightest amount of detection from them.
Dong Fang Qing Cangâs eyes shifted around the faces of the soldiers guarding the city, âXie Wanqingâs not here.â Finished speaking, he jumped off the city wall and went inside the city.
Inside the city was the night curfew and not a single person was on the streets. Even a dog barking cannot be heard and such scene has caused Little Orchid to feel constrained. She brought up a topic to resolve her feeling, âBig devil, you hurriedly searched for Xie Wanqing because you love her ah?â
Dong Fang Qing Cang paid no attention to her.
Little Orchid pouted, âI guess thatâs not it.â Little Orchid said, âFollowing my observations over time, you ah, is petty and terrible. Remembering someone like this is definitely not because you love the person. Itâs more like a thief remembering the wealth, and like a dog remembering a meat-bunâ¦â
Dong Fang Qing Cang, ââ¦â   fudge you aggregator sites >.>

Little Orchid responded, âI feel that itâs definitely you seeking out the other person for revenge.â
Dong Fang Qing Cang laughed coldly, âHow ben zuo goes about does not need you to ask? When ben zuo killed her, you go take her body to use thenâ¦â oo
âYou want to kill her!â Little Orchid cut off Dong Fang Qing Cangâs words and widened eyes, âHow can that be! If her longevity did not end yet, you killing her will break the Heaven law. When I do go into her body, itâs considered stealing anotherâs stuff. This matter is completely different from waiting for her longevity to fade then pick up the corpse.â
Dong Fang Qing Cang only snorted disdainfully at Little Orchidâs allegations. He was about to refute her, yet he suddenly saw a team of soldiers that were hurriedly walking past. The person in charge was a female wearing armor with a graceful figure.
She ordered people to guard at the alleyâs head and only brought along a famous doctor into the alley. After passing two to three houses, she pushed the gates to go in the courtyard. olololol
Dong Fang Qing Cangâs line of vision followed the femaleâs silhouette and then without hesitation, caught up to her as she stepped toward the courtyard.
âThatâs Xie Wanqing ah?â Little Orchid asked, âHow do you know her?â
Dong Fang Qing Cang did not responded, but Little Orchid can feel that Dong Fang Qing Cangâs emotions were secretly boiling.
Stepping in the little courtyard, the heavy smell of medicine gushed out. Dong Fang Qing Cang did not go through the door, but passed directly through the walls. Inside the house, a paled-face male was sitting on the bed and armored-wearing female was standing beside him. Her lovely figure was straightened adeptly which was rarely seen in an ordinary female, but at that time, between her eyebrows was tinged with melancholy.
The doctor checked the maleâs pulse. Afterwards, he stroked his beard and shook his head.
The female did not respond and only let the doctor outside to prescribe medicine. She sat next to the male and lightly held his hand. She gently stroked his palms.
The male opened his eyes and quietly peered at her. The paled-face grew a smile and then held the femaleâs hands. He wrote several words on the palm of her hands and the female saw. She was quiet for a while and then wrote several words onto the palm of his hands. But in the midst of writing, she seemed to not want to continue. She lowered head and was motionless as if extremely dejected.
The male held her hands and the ten fingers stuck to one another as if silently encouraging her.
The atmosphere between the two was congealed, but was filled with deep emotions. This has caused Little Orchid to be really moved, âIt turned out to be an ill, deaf male with a female general; the two definitely loved each other very much⦠Hey hey hey! Dong Fang Qing Cang! What are you doing?!â
