Picked up a Demon King to be a Maid

Chapter 532: Near-Immortal Expert

Although she didnt really want to do it, in order to save Lin Xiao, Elena had to make some sacrifices

Yes, she used the sword to cut her wrist and used her blood to treat Lin Xiao. With it, his wound rapidly closed and he not only kept his life but got more power and could do as he pleased within the illusion!

Otherwise, without Elenas help, how would he so easily defeat the internal demon when he was almost about to kick the bucket himself?

Even though Elena dislikes ShenDai Ying, she couldnt just leave her, so after she saved Lin Xiao, she dipped her finger in the remaining blood on her wrist and stuck it into ShenDai Yings mouth to help her recover a bit.

But speaking of it, Elenas personality was difficult, she was just annoyed how Lin Xiao was hiding stuff from ShenDai Ying, yet she did the exact same as him.

When Lin Xiao was unconscious, she stayed by his side the whole time, but when he woke up, she purposely put on a cold expression and turned away. But its not like it was his first day meeting her, so he understood just by seeing the wound left on her wrist.

The demon king actually cut herself to save him how touching! Unfortunately, he wasnt much better than Elena, even though he talked big, he was embarrassed when it was actually important.

So even if he knew about it, he just cooperated with acting with Elena and awkwardly chatted with her for a bit, saying things like, Hey, Im alive, Oh, youre not dead yet?, Yeah, otherwise how would I massage your chest? and stuff like that.

No it still feels strange. If you were stabbed, even if the wound was shallow, how could you have medicine that immediately closes it up? Lin Xiao, youre lying!

Hm, its the truth! Sister Ying, actually, the medicine was given to me by a near-immortal expert!

Hah? So who was it?

Hm I cant tell you right now! But when the time comes, I will!

Lin Xiao awkwardly scratched his head and continued making stuff up and looking back at Elenas reaction. He then secretly tugged on her sleeves, but she kept ignoring him and Lin Xiao eventually touched her hand. When their hands touched, they both blushed and gently held onto one another.

On the other side, ShenDai Ying was still confused, first, it was the miracle medicine, then the near-immortal expert, these nonsensical puzzles were too difficult for how weak she was right now, so she didnt think too much of it and rested.

Since the enemy was already gone, she didnt have anything else to worry about

Suddenly, Elena shot up and looked nervously down the mountain.

Whats wrong Elena? Did the third apostle come back?

Lin Xiao also got up and prepared to fight. He had thought that the third apostle would have already run far away.

No, not him, he already ran. Its the living dead? Sigh.

After finding out what it was, Elena dropped her guard and sighed.

Oh, so he ran and sent the living dead here to die?

Their boss was already defeated, so what use was it to send more small-fry? He probably thought that even if ShenDai Ying couldnt finish him off, the living dead army could rush in and reap the benefits.

Although Im tired but, lets have some fun with them.

Lin Xiao, wait someones coming!

Hm? Who would come here?

They feel familiar oh, its them.

Whos them?

Lin Xiao walked forward and peeked down the mountain and got it.

Why was it them?

Hey Caesar, I see Lin Xiao! Theyre theyre right in front!

Great! Rosie, lets go!

Hehe, all for you, my prince!

Caesar and Rosie strange, why did they come? The couple carved a path through the living dead army with Caesar in the lead and they soon arrived and rushed towards Lin Xiao.

Stinking Lin XIao! We came to save you! Hehe, why dont you hurry and thank us!

Rosie was already shouting while running before she even saved anyone. What was funny was when she arrived, she realized that they didnt even need help.

You eh?

Rosie realized that all of them were fine! Elena, ShenDai Ying, and a girl shes never seen were asleep and leaning against a tree and Lin Xiao was standing in front like he was welcoming them.

Whats going on? What about the trap?

Whats going on? Didnt you fall into a trap?

A trap? Oh, yeah.

Then how are you fine?

Because I already beat them and they ran away.

Hah? Stop messing around! You fell into their trap, so just being able to escape would already be great, how could you beat them?

Hm but thats the truth.

Seeing as how the two still didnt believe him, he told them about what happened, Of course, he omitted the parts about the demon king charging him up and about ShenDai Yings illusions. So he just talked a bit about the fight with the tree and the battle with the third apostle. Although a lot of details were omitted, it was still reasonable. Also, Lin Xiao excelled in storytelling.

So youre saying that the third apostle personally set a trap for you, and in the end, he escaped heavily injured?

Pretty much.

Lin Xiao could understand Caesars complex feelings, but didnt know how to comfort him, so he just patted his shoulders. It couldnt be helped, anyone would feel bad he thought his friend was in danger so he gave up a huge opportunity to save them and in the end, they didnt even need your help.
