Chapter 588 - I Came to Save You (1/2)
At the same time, one reincarnated god and one fallen god looked at each other in the demon king's palace.
Jing Yi couldn't help but shiver when he was subjected to the gaze from those black eyes. ”Who are you?”
The fallen god took his hand back and sat up straight. So this was the reincarnation of the Son of Heaven? How strange! How come he was so … mediocre?
Jing Yi furrowed his brow when he didn't get an answer. Just who was this person? He was sure that he had never seen him before but that didn't have to say anything. He couldn't remember everything from his previous life and he had hardly seen anyone from the demon or dragon race. Even those people who had come with Qiu Ling to save him had been strangers to him.
”Are you … someone the demon king sent?”
The fallen god looked at him. ”He can't send me. Nobody can.”
Jing Yi nodded but he didn't understand. So this person had come on his own accord? But why? Well, if he wasn't someone working for the demon king … could it be he was someone Qiu Ling knew? ”Then do you know Qiu Ling?”
”Is that your lover?”
Jing Yi's cheeks flushed. This … Wasn't this too direct?!
”I see.” The fallen god stood up and walked to the window, staring out at the courtyard. Mn, the demon king sure had an interesting way of imprisoning people. Putting dragons in the dungeon and reincarnated gods in simple rooms … Well, a mortal wasn't a threat and this mortal was one even less.
He turned around and tilted his head. ”You're only in the third stage. It wasn't even long since you entered it.”
Jing Yi's eyes widened. How did he know? He looked at him more closely. Seeing the black robe, there was only one place he could think of. ”Are you from the Hei Dian Sect?”
The fallen god raised his head and touched the mark between his brows. ”The Hei Dian Sect?” He stopped talking until he lowered his hand. ”No.”
”Then … Why did you come here?”
”To save you.”
Jing Yi had no idea how to answer. He still didn't know who this man was. Why did he want to save him?
