Chapter 13065 Demon Soul King’s Thoughts

Ling Xiao's words were filled with dissatisfaction and vigilance. It was obvious that the Demon Soul King's previous indifference had left a deep impression on him.

The Demon Soul King seemed to sense Ling Xiao's hostility and distrust. He sighed softly, his voice revealing a bit of helplessness and self-mockery:

"I admit that I did not consider many things before. But after this battle, I have reflected deeply. Your words are like a wake-up call, making me realize that even if I am a demon cultivator, I should not blindly pursue power and abandon the most basic emotions and responsibilities in human nature.

Companions should support each other so that they can go further. As for curing illnesses and saving lives, although I am not good at it, I can still alleviate your mother's pain at this moment."

At this point, the Demon Soul King's voice became soft and firm, and he continued, "Don't worry, I won't hide anything or have any intentions.

I can teach you a secret method. Although it cannot cure your mother's injuries, it can temporarily seal the pain in her body and give her a moment of peace and comfort. This is my way of making up for my past actions, both to you and to myself."

Ling Xiao listened to the words of the Demon Soul King. The alertness in his eyes did not completely disappear, but his indifference seemed to have loosened. He was silent for a moment, and finally said coldly: "I don't believe you, but I will learn. Teach me the method, and I will try it myself."

His words showed both caution for the unknown and deep concern and love for his mother. He knew that no matter what the other party's purpose was, as long as it could alleviate his mother's pain, it was worth a try.

The Demon Soul King sighed softly in his heart. This sigh was barely audible, but it was full of complicated emotions. He realized that the bridge of trust between him and Ling Xiao might have been cracked because of the things that happened in the past.

Now, no matter what he said, it was difficult to completely eliminate Ling Xiao's vigilance and suspicion. This realization made him feel a little helpless and bitter, but it also strengthened his determination to repair this relationship.

Despite his mixed feelings, the Demon Soul King chose to remain silent. He knew that actions could prove his sincerity better than words. So, he unreservedly taught Ling Xiao the secret method that could temporarily relieve Jiang Xiruo's pain.

During the teaching process, his eyes were focused and deep, and every word contained recognition of Ling Xiao's potential and expectations for the future.

After the teaching was completed, the Demon Soul King quietly looked at Ling Xiao, and an unprecedented premonition surged in his heart. He seemed to see Ling Xiao's future glory, a power and majesty that surpassed the former leader of the Demon Sect, enough to make the entire Demon Sect and even the entire martial arts world tremble.

Such a Ling Xiao is destined to become an existence that cannot be underestimated, and all he can do now is to make friends with him as much as possible to avoid an irreversible end in the future.

"Thank you!" Ling Xiao's voice broke the silence in the room, brief but sincere. Although he still had dissatisfaction with the Demon Soul King, this dissatisfaction did not affect his gratitude for the Demon Soul King's help at this moment.

He knew very well how precious this secret method was that could bring a moment of peace to his mother when she was suffering. Therefore, he chose to put aside his prejudice and expressed his heartfelt gratitude to the Demon Soul King.

At this moment, there seems to be a subtle change in the relationship between the two. Although trust has not yet been fully restored, at least they are both working hard to improve the relationship.

Ling Xiao knew the ingenuity of this method at a glance, and secretly admired its clever conception. He knew very well that this was not an ordinary method, but a method of completely stripping away the most sensitive pain perception of the human body, leaving no trace of pain in the depths of the soul, thus achieving a tranquility and comfort beyond the physical pain.

Although this method does not directly treat the pain, it can greatly relieve Jiang Xiruo's physical and mental suffering in a short period of time. He couldn't help but feel a warm current in his heart, and felt sincerely gratified for being able to alleviate his mother's pain.

Without any hesitation, Ling Xiao quickly and carefully followed the steps taught by the Demon Soul King.

As his fingertips moved lightly, a soft and mysterious power quietly spread and slowly penetrated into Jiang Xiruo's body, like a spring breeze and rain, silently dissolving the endless pain one by one.

Jiang Xiruo's expression gradually changed from painful to peaceful. Her tense body slowly relaxed, and finally turned into a gentle tranquility. She leaned quietly on Ling Xiao's shoulder and fell asleep.

Her breathing became even and long, and her face was filled with a long-lost serenity, as if all the suffering had gone away with this sleep.

Ling Xiao looked at his mother's sleeping face, feeling mixed emotions. He was happy that he could temporarily relieve his mother's pain, but he was also deeply worried about the long-term effects of the forbidden spell.

He knew that this forbidden spell not only deprived Jiang Xiruo of the possibility to continue practicing and advancing, but also made her stay at the Tianhe Realm for the rest of her life. This was undoubtedly a great regret and pain for a strong man who once had great ambitions and longed to reach the pinnacle of martial arts.

However, Ling Xiao did not give up hope. He knew that in this world, there were always some miracles beyond imagination. Perhaps one day in the future, he would be able to find the legendary treasure, or master some secret method to change fate, and help his mother break the shackles of the forbidden spell and regain a new life.

This belief is like the brightest star in the night sky, guiding him to keep moving forward and to advance courageously on the path of cultivation, just for that glimmer of possible light and hope.

At this moment, he gently stroked Jiang Xiruo's hair, his eyes flashing with determination and tenderness. He knew that no matter how difficult the road ahead was, he would stay by his mother's side until that day came.

Looking at the peacefully sleeping face of his mother Jiang Xiruo, Ling Xiao felt an indescribable sense of tranquility and satisfaction in his heart.

He gently adjusted his posture to make sure his mother could lean comfortably on his shoulder, and then slowly turned his gaze to Long Chen beside him.

With a gentle smile on his lips, he said softly, "Second Brother, you are really impressive. That palm strike just now was so clean and neat that it directly defeated a Tianhe Realm warrior. This kind of strength is really amazing."

Hearing this, Long Chen's face flashed with a hint of humility. He shook his head gently, his eyes full of admiration for Ling Xiao: "Brother, why do you have to praise me so much? Although we are brothers, your talent and hard work are beyond my reach.

If we had the same starting point, the height you have reached now would definitely be beyond my reach. But, having said that, it is really rare that the three of us brothers have finally met here. But, big brother, sister-in-law... haven't you found sister-in-law Yue Nu yet?"

At this point, Long Chen's voice unconsciously lowered a few notes. He knew very well the position of Yue Nu in Ling Xiao's heart, and he also understood that this topic might touch upon the pain point in Ling Xiao's heart.
