Rest in a Demon's Embrace [BL]

Jiang Luo was smiling on the surface, but his heart was feeling slightly apprehensive.

He had always known that there were certain realms above the one he lived in now, but he did not expect that their experts were so strong.

Two days prior, this woman had suddenly appeared at his door with a guard by her side, and had required his assistance in return for giving him the throne.

Initially, the Fourth Demon Prince had been in disbelief, but after seeing that this guard alone was as strong as Jiang Yao, he had let go of his worries, and instantly agreed to her conditions.

The woman claimed to be from the Luo family from above. She had not explained what position this family held in that realm, but the arrogance and haughty expression on her face was not faked, and the Fourth Demon Prince, who was used to others flattering him, had to do his best to be a host for once.

"You said that our target has become a plaything for one of the other princes?"

The young woman leaned lazily against the armrest, as she glanced at the wine in her glass. She did not even look at Jiang Luo, but the Fourth Demon Prince was very well aware that she was asking him.

"That is right. His name is Luo Xiao. He is from a very poor village on the edge of the continent. It got destroyed by a corpse puppet, and it seems that he was the only survivor.

"In order to live a decent life, he has given himself to my seventh brother, and he now belongs to him. Although they claim to be lovers in public, it is obvious that he is merely a plaything.

"Seventh Brother is a prince, and it is not possible to marry another man. We all know that the continuation of our bloodline is important, so he will have to pick a suitable wife eventually."

The woman's lips rose into a mocking smile, and her eyes were full of disdain and happiness.

"I wonder how my dear sister would feel if she knew that the boy she tried so hard to protect was living such an unforgivable life. I better bring him back so that he can keep her company in the back mountains."

Although the woman's words were not loud, Jiang Luo heard them, and his heart shook. He had never expected that this young boy would have a backing in the upper realms.

However, after guessing that this woman was hostile towards Jiang Yao's little lover, he was even more eager to assist them in destroying the boy. As to whether the boy would be locked up in a prison or buried in the ground where he was supposed to accompany his mother in the back mountains, the Fourth Demon Prince did not care.

At the same time, Luo Xiao and Jiang Yao had found their private room where they slowly sat down and began to look forward to the auction.

Luo Xiao was focused on the auction and did not sense anything amiss, but Jiang Yao was not the second strongest expert on the continent just for show.

From the moment they entered the auction house, he had sensed how a pair of eyes had been focused on the two of them. The eyes contained a killing intent and ruthlessness that Jiang Yao recognized from himself.

However, what made him angry was that the majority of the hostility was not aimed at him, but at his Xiaoxiao, who was happily seated by his side.

If this had been before their return to Cloudsoar City, then Jiang Yao would definitely assume that the one behind this assassin would be his fourth brother, but after hearing about the young man's true heritage, he was more inclined to think that an unhappy family member was playing in the shadows.

The hidden expert's strength was not low, and even Jiang Yao would need to invest some time and effort to defeat him. It was not possible for Jiang Luo to hire such a strong assistant.

Suddenly, while Jiang Yao was deep in thought of how to handle this assassin without interrupting the auction, he felt Luo Xiao holding his hand gently.

His face was lit up by a brilliant smile, and he gently pecked his lover's face.

"Are you excited?" he asked, happily, but his hands began to write some characters on Jiang Yao's palm, asking him what was wrong.

Jiang Yao could see that while Luo Xiao seemed happy and easygoing, there was a bit of tension hidden deep within his eyes. Although Luo Xiao could not sense the assassin, he was able to know that Jiang Yao was acting different from normal; in fact, he could sense his alertness.

Since there was something that could make Jiang Yao so alert and serious, then it had to contain a bit of threat, not only to the auction, but also to them.

This was why Luo Xiao did not answer directly but picked this method, and Jiang Yao's eyes almost burst with pride. This young man had developed so swiftly. His ability to think of this method was truly great, and the smile on the demon's cold face was full of adoration as he lowered his head and kissed the soft lips of the shorter man.

At the same time, he used his fingers to write a few characters on Luo Xiao's palm to ensure him that things were fine, but they had to stay alert.

For the assassin waiting in the shadows, the intimate gestures were somewhat depressing. He was merely an assassin, but he was forced to witness their display of affection without consideration for his single heart.

However, it was also these gentle actions that made him ignore their fingers that played with one another. He would never have expected that they were writing small messages to one another this way.
