Chapter 08
Nomu threw himself on the floor, on his knees as he begs Xie Yan to take his words back.
Nomu
It's too risky, they might kill us!
Xie Yan
Stand up! I'm not asking your as your lord, nomu...
Xie Yan went on his knees as well, to be on the same eye level as Nomu.
Xie Yan
You have to do this for me...I have to escape.. *teary*
Nomu
But if you get caught...*gulps*
Xie Yan
They are gonna get rid of me either way. What happens after I give birth?
Xie Yan
I'll be a prisoner or executed. there's no in-between! I have to escape!
Nomu
Lord Han Li treats you well...he wouldn't...
Xie Yan
Do you really trust the demon clan? After everything that happened?
Xie Yan
Nomu, you either help me or not hinder me. I'll leave tonight. I have found loopholes where the guards seem lazy. Everyone seems busy, this is the perfect chance! I have to do this!
Nomu
*looks up at Xie Yan*
No words were exchanged for a few seconds until Nomu nodded. Xie Yan smiled brightly seeing Nomu agree.
Xie Yan hugged Nomu, whom rubbed his back.
Nomu
You're my lord, after all! I'll do anything you want.
Xie Yan
Thank you, Nomu. I appreciate this...
Xie Yan
(Tonight is the night... Having Nomu's support is going to help a lot. Especially to distract guards if we need to.)
Xie Yan
Let's go back and prepare? I'll take anything we need.
Nomu
You go ahead my lord, I'll bring you dinner.
Xie Yan walked happily back to his chambers, ignoring his surroundings. Everyone seemed mad to see the moon lord happy in this situation but he didn't care. He'll finally escape!
Han Li
You've finally come? It's been too quite. I was worried. *snickers*
Han Li
Before you speak. Let me guess...
Han Li
Is he trying to escape?
Nomu
He will try his attempt tonight.
Han Li
I expected this. Get everyone prepared. Let him through until the very end.
I'll be waiting for him! *laughs*
Han Li
(He's too adorable. Did he really think I'll have anyone around him that doesn't work for me? Cute.)
Nomu
Yes, my lord. Everything will be done as you wish. *bows*
Han Li
Right. Continue speaking, Mino.
A/N: Xie Yan trying to escape, he's being bold! 🙈
