Who Stole My Eggs? - Chapter 102

This was the first time the little snake had seen them quarrelling. Seeing that he was being carried away by Xie Zuo, he stuck his head out to take a look.

Huo Yao stood alone with a gloomy expression.

“Dad,” the little snake endured the toothache, “I feel that my father is a bit pitiful. Let’s not run away from home, right?”

“Who is running away from home?” Xie Zuo carried the little snake to the backyard, found a medicine garden in the corner, pinched a few slender leaves, and said, “Open your mouth.”

The little snake opened its mouth obediently and was immediately stuffed with leaves. The leaves were refreshing and cool, and when applied to his swollen and painful teeth, the pain eased a lot.

The little snake couldn’t close his mouth from ear to ear; his saliva was drooling, and he couldn’t speak clearly. “What… these leaves?”

“A magical medicine to treat the sequelae of gluttony.” Xie Zuo helped the little snake close his mouth. “Bite tighter. Let me know when the cool feeling is gone, and I will change the leaves for you.”

“Oh…”

Xie Zuo picked up the little snake and started walking back. “I also have common sense, okay? Your toothache is related to eating too much candy. Another part of the reason is that you have to replace your teeth. It will be strange if it doesn’t hurt.”

Perhaps because of the nourishment from Xie Zuo’s demonic power, the demon-bodied snake had indeed grown much faster these days. Changing teeth was just a trivial matter, but shedding skin was real torture, and the little snake would still have to endure it in the future.

Although what Huo Yao said was unpleasant, Xie Zuo still listened to it, and he decided that he would not coddle the little snake like this in the future.

The little snake watched them return to Huo Yao and couldn’t help but ask, “Aren’t you angry?”

Xie Zuo said depressed, “He is not clear-headed now and doesn’t know what he is spraying. I don’t care about the ill patient.”

Huo Yao was still standing there, but his eyes were not focused, and he didn’t know where his thoughts had returned.

Xie Zuo put the little snake down and pulled Huo Yao to sit by the bed.

Huo Yao was stunned, and his eyes suddenly became clear. He held Xie Zuo’s hand tightly. “Don’t leave!”

Xie Zuo sighed. “I won’t leave, don’t worry.”

“You’re lying to me again, Father.”

When Xie Zuo heard Huo Yao calling him Heavenly Father, he was about to explode. He let out a heavy breath and said, “My name is Xie Zuo. I didn’t lie to you. Aren’t you the one who has been deceiving me and hiding the truth from me?”

Huo Yao was silent, not knowing what he was thinking. After a while, he said again, “I know you didn’t lie to me on purpose. You lost your memory. It doesn’t matter if you forget. Let’s start again.”

Xie Zuo couldn’t help but raise his forehead. Hey, he still didn’t understand this yet.

In this situation, Xie Zuo had no good solution. He could only wait for Huo Yao’s mind to slowly return to normal.

In the past, Huo Yao’s situation would have been cured within half a day. But this time, for some reason, he was too excited, or there was something wrong elsewhere. The next day, he was still in a state of confusion where memory and reality could not be distinguished.

Xie Zuo wanted to take him to Bian Zhong’s place to have a look, but Huo Yao couldn’t live without the underground river, so he had to write a letter to Bian Zhong first, describing Huo Yao’s situation in detail and asking her to come over as soon as possible.

Bian Zhong’s reply came quickly: [Don’t worry, he is about to recover his memory, and his mind will be confused for a while. Just stay with him; no doctor is needed. Also, you may have forgotten that I can’t go to the Asura Realm.]

Only then did Xie Zuo remember that this was a forbidden place for the deities, a gathering place for sinful deities, and the normally reigning deities could not come.

Although Bian Zhong couldn’t come, she provided the diagnosis results and gave Xie Zuo some peace of mind. In fact, to him, it didn’t matter whether Huo Yao’s memory had been restored or not, as long as the person was safe and healthy.

Huo Yao’s chaotic state lasted for more than a month, and Xie Zuo guarded him every step of the way.

That night, Huo Yao went to bed early to rest. Xie Zuo saw that he was sleeping deeply, so he hugged the little snake and went outside to play. After coaxing the little snake to sleep, Xie Zuo returned to the room and saw a man wrapped in a black cloak standing next to Huo Yao.

Xie Zuo’s first reaction was that another one wanted to climb into bed.

The customs of the Asura world had always been like this. They were proud to be able to spend time with their King and firmly believed that they could improve their cultivation through double cultivation with the King. Even though Xie Zuo had already sworn his sovereignty, there would still be unyielding Asuras sneaking in from time to time.

But upon closer inspection, that sneaky figure didn’t look like an Asura. The Asuras, both male and female, were all very tall, but the one in front of him was a little one, only reaching Xie Zuo’s waist.

The little kid let out a weird “Hehehe” laugh and suddenly pulled out a huge sickle from his black cloak and swung it at Huo Yao!
