Shen Yanxiao nodded. The five demons went off to take care of their assignments and left the two alone.
"Brother Du, what is on your mind?" Shen Yanxiao asked.
Du Lang watched as the five demons left. Slowly, he shifted his eyes to the little girl.
For the past day, he had been on the receiving end of too many surprises. He had met more demons in that one day than the first half of his life.
"What is going on between you and the demons?" After much hesitation, Du Lang asked the question. He had a hard time picturing a peaceful coexistence between humans and demons. The two races were enemies, incompatible as fire and water.
"Nothing much. It's just that we have reached some agreement. Don't worry about it. The demons here will not attack you," Shen Yanxiao answered with a smile.
However, her answer did not convince Du Lang.
