"Yeah." Lu Lian responded, and then asked calmly: "Aren't you curious about who I went to see?"
"Why are you curious? If you want to play tricks on me, you can play tricks on me no matter if I have my eyes on you or not." Hua Xi said nonchalantly.
Lu Lian smiled: "The heart of a villain."
"Yo!" Hua Xi raised her eyebrows and smiled so proudly, "I don't have anything else to show off, but in front of you, I don't dare to pretend to be a villain, it's so overwhelming!"
Lu Lian glanced at her and said, "She has sharp teeth."
"Isn't it?" Hua Xi snorted, "Your heart is so dark that you can't even blame me!"
Lu Lian did not answer her words and asked again: "Why don't you follow me in to meet someone?"
"The person you want to meet must be a demon. I have a certain reputation among the demons and it's hard to show my face."
"That's right, we are going to sneak in secretly this time."
"The only way from the demon world to the outside world that is not blocked by the contract in the Sunset Mountains is Huangquan Waterfall. But that place should be heavily guarded now. Breaking in will definitely alarm a lot of people."
"We have another way." Lu Lian said casually, not worried at all.
Hua Xi glanced at him and said, "I also regret not going in with you just now. I really want to see who is so unlucky as to become your puppet?"
"Not a puppet."
"What is that? A demon who submits to you?" Hua Xi raised her eyebrows. She didn't believe that someone was willing to submit to him!
"Hua Xi, I told you that everyone has weaknesses. Puppetry is not the only way to control a person. As long as you grasp the weaknesses, anyone can be used by you." Lu Lian said sincerely.
Hua Xi shuddered. She was really not used to him being so reasonable all of a sudden.
"Sure enough, he used despicable means again, right?" Hua Xi said contemptuously.
Lu Lian smiled bitterly and said, "I'm really not despicable this time."
"Who are you lying to?" Hua Xi sneered, "It is true that everyone has weaknesses, but only those with too selfish desires will be easily controlled."
"You are right," Lu Lian nodded in agreement, "But in this world, everyone has very selfish desires."
Hua Xi lowered his head, was silent for a while, and finally nodded: "That's right."
In fact, it all says the same, everyone is selfish.
This topic made people feel bad, so Hua Xi stopped talking after a few words.
The two of them left the town and soon reached the bank of the Huangquan River. Looking at the shallow dry yellow water, Lu Lian said, "Did you know that the Huangquan River was originally called the 'River of Death'?"
"I've heard of it."
"But now, it is as docile as a sheep."
Hua Xi murmured: "In my hometown, there was once a ferocious river that brought countless disasters, but in the end, it gave birth to the entire nation and was called the 'Mother River'."
"Oh? Which country's river is it?" This is the first time Lu Lian has heard of it. Is there any other river as ferocious as the Huangquan River?
"Anyway, you don't know." Hua Xi changed the subject, "Where do we go in?"
At this time, the sky was gradually getting dark, and the entire Sunset Mountain Range was like a beast lying on the ground, waiting for an opportunity, watching the two intruders eagerly.
Lu Lian waited for a moment and then saw a dark shadow quickly coming out in front of her, and there seemed to be a flash of light in her hand.
He also raised his hand, and a cold blue flame flashed in his palm.
