Black Bellied Belle: Demon Lord, Bite the Bait Please - Chapter 318.4

Chapter 318.4: Seeing the Light Of Day Once More

A hand came to rest on his chest where his heart is, but there was nothing he could do to calm the heart down. The heart seemed to be highly excited, as if something that happened was causing it to become maniacally ecstatic.

What is….. happening to him?

Why is he suddenly feeling….. so uneasy…..

This heart had given him a new lease of life back then, and he had come to gain greater strength and power from then on, together with the immortality he had sought for the longest time.

Other than that, there had been nothing else.

This heart inside him, did not even beat like a normal person should, but just sat embedded in his chest coldly, not moving in the slightest. For it to thump so strongly like this, was something that had never happened before.

He knew that the heart did not belong to him at all, but to another person. Even though he had gained strong and mighty powers, he was still not the real owner of the heart afterall, so besides having prolonged his life, the heart had never done anything else.

But now, what is happening to him? Why is there such a strong reaction?

Is something going to happen? And it must be something that’s related to that man.

This is his heart, and this must be something about him.

But, he had seen with his own eyes the man dissipating into dust before scattering into the wind. Not even his soul existed anymore, so there is no chance that he could possibly come back to life again.

But if he had not come back to life, then why is his heart beating so furiously?

Lian Shi clutched his hand tightly against his chest and clenched his jaws together as his footsteps took him resolutely off into a particular direction.

It’s this way…..

Even though he could not really believe it himself, his heart was however seemingly probing him towards this direction.

There, he will find that answer he sought.

“Have you ever been to this place before?”

Qing Yu looked at the stoically silent man and asked. “I heard from….. the other Lian Shi that this was a place that was once inhabited by people from the gods race, so many parts of it is kept looking the same as it was from a long long time back, where even the celestial energy in the air is still just as thick and robust.”

“Mm.” The man grunted in response. “This is where the borders of the realms between the gods and demon races met, with the two races each inhabiting one half. The two races had always vied for control over the entire land, which only ended in heavy losses on both sides with neither coming out the winner. Finally, a negotiation was called and it was agreed that this place would be set as the central dividing line.”

Qing Yu arched up an eyebrow in surprise. “Ah, such a thing actually occurred.”

“He didn’t tell you that?” The man said with a smile. “Maybe it’s just a small and unimportant detail, so he didn’t see the need to bring it up to you.”

Qing Yu’s eyes flashed with a glint, the expression on her face seemingly a little complex. She hesitated for a brief instant, before she then opened her mouth to say: “Actually, I wanted to ask you this. Since you’ve come back, are you going to take back the heart that you’ve put in his body? Will he then die…..”
