The Legend of the Devil
Ch. 31 - Son of the Dark
One day passed, Kang Jian, Xue Zhan and Jiazhen Yan were still in the Feng Empire for the sake of investigation. Afternoon down, Xue Zhan came out of the palace to look for some fresh air. Linger in there and must be formal like a noble to make his poor soul struggling. How could a person who used to live hard life seem to be able to equate themselves with nobles who might daily chew gold.
Xue Zhan shuddered. For a moment his eyes found one place quite shady. The garden with several green apple fruit trees decorated with blooming roses looked deserted. Xue Zhan was just about to sit down until his attention was split when he saw another aloof figure.
He only realized there were some children of his age playing, of course they were wearing luxurious noble clothes like that child.
Without thinking long Xue Zhan approached him.
"Hey, are you okay?"
The gloomy face of the child made Xue Zhan a little concerned.
He seemed to see himself first. In the kindergarten, when all the children were playing with his friend only he who was crouching alone away from the crowd.
Look them in the eyes meet. The boy may look two years younger than him. Unknowingly Xue Zhan was retreated. His instincts said there was something terrible about the boy, he fell silent and instantly got a loud snatch.
"Don't pity me!!"
Then the boy ran out of nowhere. Xue Zhan was silent in his place, confused as to what mistake he had made.
Xue Zhan picked up a necklace that had fallen from the little boy, because he had already fled Xue Zhan kept it temporarily.
"Hey poor, what are you doing here?"
That infuriating talk and half-solid tone of speech, who else if not the damned Jiazhen Yan. Xue Zhan was still holding a grudge, the pain Jiazhen Yan slapped him until fainting was still felt.
"When I see the garden, the devil."
"Damn? This prince is called a demon."
Xue Zhan laughed incessantly, "Heh, prince. Prince jamba's edge yes."
"What are you talking about?" Jiazhen Yan was about to catch him to be dedicated, it was a pity that Xue Zhan first ran away. Because also did not know what to do finally Jiazhen Yan followed with Xue Zhan. But of course it does not feel if without elevating yourself.
"Actually the amusement of seeing the park is not suitable for nobles like me, it has been every day to see it until it is caught off guard. But occasionally seeing the entertainment of commoners was no problem."
"God is tired of hearing this one demon. Good thing if paid, it's free." Xue Zhan returned to the bottom of the tree where Jiazhen Yan was sitting leaning. He took out something from his pocket, showing Jiazhen Yan.
"Oi's ugly. Do you know whose necklace this is?"
Jiazhen Yan said lazily. "Either. Most have Old Ziran." Jiazhen Yan unreservedly ridiculed the name of their Emperor. Made Xue Zhan almost slap the kid's cheek.
"Where possible, I just got it from a boy in this palace. After all the Feng Empire and Diqiu Empire were far away. How could Emperor Ziran have dropped it."
Xue Zhan seemed to be starting to doubt that Jiazhen Yan was a genius disciple. Sometimes his brain is not used.
"The Feng Empire and Diqiu Empire are close. Just a little bit until."
"Gelosor fell into the sea!"
"Haha!" Jiazhen Yan laughed out loud, he finally looked at the necklace in his friend's hands seriously. His eyes were open and the boy immediately brushed the necklace away until it was thrown deep into the bushes.
"Oi, what the fuck?! Just play hit!"
Xue Zhan was intending to take back the necklace but Jiazhen Yan held back.
The impact was not broken.
"That's someone's property, I have to return it to him. What I'm asking is that you don't know the guy?"
"He's a monster boy, Xue Zhan!"
Just this time Xue Zhan saw Jiazhen Yan as seriously as that. "The boy had no parents, he was born of darkness. Everyone knows who he is, you'd better go all the way if you don't want that terrifying power to curse at you."
A moment Xue Zhan fell silent.
"Isn't this the same as everyone else told you? I'm a child of the devil, you shouldn't be friends with a demon like me."
"Well!" she exclaimed, "if that were clear, you wouldn't be able to hurt me because I'm obviously stronger than you!"
"But if it's that kid, his body is full of curses. The news has spread everywhere. The moment she was born, her clan's servant found the mother who gave birth to her vanished. So too with his father. The necklace was a talisman to withstand the power of the curse within him. You'd better be"
Jiazhen Yan flinched, Xue Zhan followed the direction of his gaze and was equally shocked.
The boy's back. His charcoal-like black eyes were filled with hatred and darkness. He turned his face towards the bushes.
"Ah that, you dropped your necklace earlier. It should be around here ..."
Xue Zhan scooped the bushes, Jiazhen Yan who was next to the child just kept quiet without making a sound.
"Ah can," he said, lifting a necklace with a black round jewel lined with cloth spell paper and wrapped in the necklace's eyes.
The boy stormed her without saying anything and left. Making Xue Zhan dumbfounded.
"Not thank you either, are you not upset to see his attitude?" jiazhen Yan's nagging is quite upset. Xue Zhan smiled faintly.
"hate? I was just looking at the old me. When everyone hates me, I also hate everyone and everything in this world."
Jiazhen Yan was speechless no more. That friend of his must have had a gloomier past than him. Moreover, it was born as a mixture of the demon race that was hated by humans since birth.
"I want to be friends with him someday."
He said as he watched the little boy walk alone amidst the crowd that suddenly split apart as he passed by and dodged him.
Kang Jian came, "How are the children? Ready to go home?"
"What about the mission money?"
"Oh, this rich man has money in mind." Of course Kang Jian said it in his heart. He only smiled in response to Jiazhen Yan's words.
"We've been talking about this lately. But before that, we have to attend the dinner banquet later. Make sure you wear clean and proper clothing. Don't embarrass Emperor Ziran with your weird habits."
"Are we both weird?" xue Zhan and Jiazhen Yan asked together.
Kang Jian smilingly replied, "It's not strange. But a little something else." He switched the subject, "And as for Xue Zhan, Emperor Li told me later you can have a four-eye talk with him. He has something for you."
Hearing him Xue Zhan was excited and agitated at the same time. What did that most esteemed woman in Feng Empire want to say? His sometimes cold attitude was sometimes graceful it made him creep on the spot.
"She said she wanted to give you a gift."
