For a moment, both people on the other end of the phone were stunned.

Jiang Yixing pondered repeatedly why the two of them would sleep together at night.

Rong Hang's thoughts wandered off into the distance, his eyes began to dart around, and a faint blush appeared on his cheeks.

Fortunately, Jiang Yixing and Rong Hang were not the most embarrassed. Gu Chun, an honest man, was already red from the neck to the top of his head because of Ji Fu's unrestrained words on the other end of the phone.

He began with an unparalleled explanation: "No...no...it's not what you think..."

“Ji Fu’s spiritual power has been unstable in recent years, making it difficult for him to maintain his human form. Occasionally, he transforms into a child, and since he can’t be seen by ordinary people in this form… so he sometimes sleeps with me…”

"oh--"

It must be said that Gu Chun's embarrassment saved Jiang Yixing and Rong Hang. They had already recovered from their awkwardness, and Jiang Yixing nodded with feigned profundity, "I see."

Rong Hang also gave a soft "hmm".

Gu Chun, unsure if the person on the other end believed him, repeatedly emphasized, "It's true..."

Jiang Yixing could only comfort him, saying, "We know, we believe you."

It wasn't until Gu Chun and Ji Fu arrived at the hotel where Jiang Yixing was sitting that Gu Chun finally calmed down, composed himself, and knocked on the door.

Rong Hang and Jiang Yixing were having breakfast in their room when they heard a knock on the door. Jiang Yixing said, "You came pretty quickly."

Rong Hang got up to open the door.

As soon as the door opened, Ji Fu's voice rang out: "Wow! You guys are having breakfast! I want some too!"

Ji Fu was the only one who wasn't a bit heartless. He ran over to Jiang Yixing, who was sitting on the sofa. There was breakfast on the coffee table, including traditional Chinese breakfast as well as Western breakfast such as pineapple buns and coffee. "Can I eat this?"

Jiang Yixing smiled and said, "Of course."

Gu Chun lagged behind and walked in with Rong Hang.

Upon entering the room, one's gaze immediately falls upon the bat demon locked in a cage.

Gu Chun could tell at a glance that he was a powerful cultivator. Two hundred years of cultivation was not considered particularly impressive, but among the recently captured minor demons, he was considered quite strong.

"Is this it?"

Rong Hang sat back down next to Jiang Yixing, who said, "Yes."

The bat had already woken up and stared longingly at Jiang Yixing and Rong Hang eating breakfast for more than ten minutes, cursing the two cruel humans in his heart for not sharing a single bite with him.

Seeing that two more people had entered the room, and their spiritual power seemed to be even stronger than Jiang Yixing and Rong Hang's, it felt a surge of nervousness.

Sure enough, the execution was about to take place.

With a small steamed bun in his mouth, Ji Fu swayed to the front of the cage, glancing at the trapped bats and then silently observing the cage Jiang Yixing had made.

"This bat is so ugly, how come it's 200 years old and still can't transform into human form?"

The bat demon was in a fit of impotent rage and was about to utter a curse when Gu Chun sealed its mouth, forcing it to swallow all the profanities.

"Jiang Yixing, the cage you made is so unique! It's really interesting."

Jiang Yixing became interested when this was mentioned.

She learned this skill specifically from the punishment hall of her own sect. When she was young and impetuous, she had been to the punishment hall several times.

As a result, after just a few times, she became familiar with everyone in and around the Punishment Hall.

She also took the opportunity to secretly learn a few tricks from the senior apprentice there, such as how to make cages, how to tie up prisoners, and how to break down the prisoners' mental defenses as quickly as possible.

Jiang Yixing raised an eyebrow. "And this too."

With a slight twitch of her fingertips, a branch sprouted from her fingers, gradually stretching to an extraordinary length. Unlike a stiff, dry branch, the branch was as soft and flexible as a real rope.

In an instant, the branches reached the bat demon. The three branches wrapped around the bat demon from different directions, binding its wings and body together so that it could not move.

Ji Fu's mouth gaped open, and an excited expression appeared on his handsome face.

Wow! This is so much fun!

“There’s a lot to it,” Jiang Yixing smiled, loosening the bat demon with the branches. Before the bat demon could make any move, it was bound again by another method of binding. “There are techniques to binding people of different body types.”

Ji Fu absolutely adored Jiang Yixing. This kind of fun was just as interesting as weapon crafting. His eyes sparkled as he clapped enthusiastically for Jiang Yixing.

They even came up with a new type of weapon that combines Jiang Yixing's skills with magical artifacts.

“One star, we can do this… then use this… and finally throw it into the furnace…”

Jiang Yixing also thought it was feasible. It seems that Ji Fu's reputation as a master weapon refiner was well-deserved; he really had a knack for it.

The two clapped their hands and immediately agreed to make the magical artifact in a couple of days.

Although Rong Hang sat very close to Jiang Yixing, he couldn't join in the conversation between Jiang Yixing and Ji Fu. He could only silently feel unhappy as he noticed that Ji Fu had started calling Jiang Yixing "Yixing".

However, that's just Jiang Yixing's personality. He already knew this; she was the kind of person who could always find joy even in the mundane.

Seeing Jiang Yixing's excited smile, Rong Hang's slight displeasure vanished.

Gu Chun was completely unaware of the atmosphere at the scene. He only felt that he shouldn't waste time and should discuss the matter of this bat demon.

So he interrupted, "Let's talk about this little demon first..."

Before she could finish speaking, Ji Fu interrupted her, "Ah Chun, wait a minute! Yi Xing and I are discussing something important! Anyway, this bat demon won't run away, and the cage Yi Xing made is very sturdy!"

Gu Chun's words were nipped in the bud. He touched his hair, a silly look appearing on his handsome face.

The bat demon was also very unhappy. Why should it have to endure this group's torture after being captured? Why wasn't it given a quick death, but instead used for experiments? And why were they openly discussing how to make a magical artifact that could automatically capture demons in front of it?

This is infuriating!! This is so disrespectful to demons!!
