Luo Ligang's voice remained as calm as ever. "I don't understand."
Yet deep down, he was aware of his own desires. He didn't want her to suffer any harm, nor did he wish to see her end up in solitude.
He longed for her to always be by his side, where he could tease her, annoy her, and at the same time, spoil and pamper her without reservation.
Ever since she entered his life, he discovered that life could indeed be so much more interesting!
After a moment of hesitation, Luo Ligang finally spoke his heart. "Little Fairy, I am jealous."
He felt a surge of jealousy towards the person from her past whom she had secretly admired, while he himself was the enemy she was determined to take revenge on.
Qiang Yi was fuming, her lips tightly sealed and silent like a sulking child.
Luo Ligang patiently waited for her reaction. He waited and waited until he was almost unable to resist releasing her himself when she finally spoke weakly, "Luo Ligang, I agree."
However, in her heart, she secretly vowed to give him a good beating and bite him once they were outside!
She wanted to escape from this jerk as far as possible and then run straight to Liu Qingxuan! She never wanted to see him again in this lifetime!
Luo Ligang removed the cap from the jade gourd and began muttering incantations.
Qiang Yi leaped out of the gourd like a nimble little beast. Luo Ligang grinned mischievously and said, "Little Fairy, Xiu Yi gave me a spell before leaving. From today on, you are my servant and must stay by my side at all times."
Upon hearing this, the smile that had graced Qiang Yi's face at regaining her freedom instantly vanished, replaced by an expression of utter dismay. She thought bitterly to herself: I must erase Liu Qingxuan's memory of me!
She swore that she would work hard to cultivate and grow into a great monster, and when the time came, she would destroy that Old Daoist!
Days passed, and Liu Qingxuan married a girl from a well-matched family.
Qiang Yi sneaked into the wedding to drink the celebratory wine. Watching the newlyweds display their affection for each other filled her heart with envy and jealousy.
"Are you thinking about getting married?" Luo Ligang noticed her staring at the bride and couldn't help but ask, "Do you want me to marry you?"
"I would never marry you! I'm here to take revenge on you! I want to peel your skin and eat your flesh! I'll swallow even your bones!"
At that moment, without the hope of love to cling to, revenge became the most important matter in her life.
Qiang Yi drank desperately, one cup after another, occasionally shooting angry glares at Luo Ligang. She couldn't help but wonder: why was he always smiling? Why had he suddenly become so... flirtatious?
She recalled what Luo Ligang had said before about "jealousy"... Suddenly, Qiang Yi felt an urge to run away, but it was already too late.
Luo Ligang strode forward, lifting her as if she were a sack of rice and carried her upstairs, then unceremoniously tossed her onto the bed.
Looking at Luo Ligang before her, Qiang Yi felt a pang of fear and trembled as she said, "Um, Luo Ligang, you said I was toxic; keep your distance from me..."
"Aren't you the one who wants to swallow me alive?" Luo Ligang had also been drinking, but his gaze remained clear, showing no signs of intoxication.
Qiang Yi's face instantly turned as red as a ripe apple as she hurriedly explained, "Not like that..."
"Little Fairy, you came to provoke me," Luo Ligang said as he kissed her red lips.
In truth, he had felt this impulse since their first meeting.
Qiang Yi was utterly powerless to resist and was completely consumed by him. She felt extremely wronged; they had clearly agreed that she would "consume" him, yet in the end, she was the one who was "consumed."
Exhausted, Qiang Yi lay on the bed like a puddle of soft mud, and after a while, she finally remembered to ask, "Didn't you say my mouth was poisonous? Why are you fine?"
Luo Ligang smirked and replied, "Guess."
Qiang Yi cursed inwardly: Truly... he could be even more infuriating!
She secretly decided that once he was gone, she would seek out the reincarnation of Thousand Mystic Moons!
As Little Fairy, Qiang Yi became Luo Ligang's slave. Her final request was to see Liu Qingxuan just once.
Luo Ligang helplessly said, "It won't do any good; he has already forgotten you."
Upon hearing this, Qiang Yi grabbed his hand and bit down hard, fiercely declaring, "I want to go!"
Filled with confusion, Qiang Yi couldn't help but ask, "How come your old face hasn't changed in decades?"
Thirty years had passed; she had matured into a captivating beauty, yet he still looked like a young man in his twenties. Even she, no matter how naive, knew there had to be something amiss!
Luo Ligang rubbed his nose, feeling a bit embarrassed as he said, "You finally figured it out!"
Qiang Yi's expression darkened, and he commanded sternly, "Explain yourself!"
"Have you never thought about it? After nearly a thousand years, you've been reincarnated as a demon, while I haven't changed at all?"
"Uh..." Qiang Yi scratched his head, realizing he had never considered it before. "So you’re a super powerful demon?"
Luo Ligang shook his head and slowly replied, "Back then, I was just an apprentice at a medical clinic. I accidentally got caught up in the Serpent King's conflict and inadvertently drank his blood. Ever since then, I've become neither human nor demon. The injury I caused you was due to my madness and inability to control myself..."
"How old are you this year?" Qiang Yi interrupted his recollection, asking urgently.
"Uh, probably over eight hundred years old..."
Upon hearing this, Qiang Yi gasped internally: So old... No wonder he didn't react to her poison.
But then she was struck with panic. "Then my plan to wait for you to die before going to find Thousand Mystic Moons is going to fall through?"
"What did you say?!" Luo Ligang's face turned furious at her words. How could she say she would look for another man after he died right in front of him?
His eyes widened in rage as he gritted his teeth and said, "Little Fairy, you're dead meat!"
