The rabbit demon basically has lost all hope.

But at this moment, the door of the main hall was pushed open again.

Yuan Shouyi put away the spiritual energy in his hand and sneered. He knew who it was without thinking too much.

It is said that one does not visit a temple for no reason. He wanted to see if this saying would really come true this time.

Looking at the rabbit demon still in the cage, Yuan Shouyi smiled sarcastically again.

There is no reason why he cannot get what he wants.

The rabbit demon trapped in the cage didn't even dare to squeak. When someone interrupted the demon catcher in front of him, he huddled in the corner and started gnawing at the cage.

Shen Jingyuan moved quickly, walked in front of Yuan Shouyi without any pause, and said directly and decisively: "Token."

"Next month's."

Shen Jingyuan knew very well that the person in front of him would never give in easily.

But today, he must take this token.

Yuan Shouyi looked at Shen Jingyuan in front of him, and was not in a hurry to give Shen Jingyuan an answer.

Instead, he sat down in the main seat in the hall without any hurry, looking down at Shen Jingyuan: "I remember I told you that there is only one chance a month, right?"

"next month?"

"Then can you promise not to take next month's opportunity in exchange for it next month?"

"You broke this exception today. Will you make another exception in the future using today's incident as an excuse?"

Yuan Shouyi frowned, and his tone seemed to be softened, but he did not show any intention of discussing anything.

"Chen Jingyuan, since the rules are set, they are not meant to be broken, but to be followed."

"Isn't this the consensus we reached at the beginning?"

Yuan Shouyi's condescending tone seemed to say: once a month is already the greatest favor he can give you, how dare you make such an unreasonable request.

Shen Jingyuan tightened his hands in his sleeves again and again, a trace of hatred flashed across his eyes, but the moment he looked at Yuan Shouyi, he returned to calmness again.

"No, not this month or next month."

Shen Jingyuan stated in a tone as calm as possible.

Yuan Shouyi looked at Shen Jingyuan who made repeated assurances, and a strange sense of satisfaction surged in his heart.

It feels like tying a caged bird to a string and letting it fly freely.

But as soon as he pulled the string, the bird in the cage would fly back to the cage obediently no matter how high or far it flew.

Yuan Shouyi did not say anything, but took out the peach wood sword that he had taken out in front of Shen Jingyuan a long time ago.

The edge of the peach wood sword looked much blunter.

But with the infusion of Yuan Shouyi's spiritual power, it regained its luster.

“Shen Jingyuan…”

"Has anyone ever told you that your promise is worthless and worthless?"

"Don't forget, I gave you a chance in January out of mercy. Otherwise, do you think you can still see her now?"

Both parties knew what Yuan Shouyi was talking about.

Both sides knew in their hearts that in Yuan Shouyi's eyes, the man in the Demon Locking Tower was the shackles he used to trap Shen Jingyuan, and it was precisely because of these shackles that Shen Jingyuan became his sword.

Shen Jingyuan lowered his eyes, without replying, and without any intention of leaving.

Just standing there straight.

For a moment, the only sound in the main hall was the sound of the rabbit demon biting the cage.

The rabbit's blunt teeth bit into the cage made of thin wire.

The friction between the teeth and the wire made a slightly harsh sound.

But even if the rabbit demon gnawed at the same place dozens or hundreds of times, the cage in front of it remained intact.

Shen Jingyuan glanced over and, as expected, saw the cage and the rabbit demon inside.

Yuan Shouyi followed Shen Jingyuan's gaze and looked at the still struggling rabbit monster. He clapped his hands and mocked, "A rabbit doesn't eat grass near its nest. I asked you to catch monsters, but you think you are a rabbit. You don't even catch the monsters at the foot of the mountain?"

"Or do you think I won't come down the mountain, so you let these monsters live at the foot of the mountain?"

Yuan Shouyi looked at the foolish Shen Jingyuan and spoke again, deliberately avoiding the previous topic.

Shen Jingyuan clenched his lips and teeth for a while before speaking:

“…it saved…”

"Did it save you?" Yuan Shouyi interrupted Shen Jingyuan and sneered, "You know, I don't like excuses like this."

Yuan Shouyi stared at Shen Jingyuan with cold eyes.

After all these years, he still hasn't learned anything.

Do you think such an excuse can make him change his mind?

A monster is a monster. No matter how well it disguises itself, it will be exposed one day.

He simply nipped the danger in the bud.

"A demon is a demon. I saved you only to confuse you. You've been practicing for years, but you're still like the child you were back then, unable to see clearly."

Yuan Shouyi was always like this, with a righteous look on his face, but the words he said made Shen Jingyuan feel sick.

Just thinking of the token, Shen Jingyuan endured it again and again.

The rabbit demon in the cage was no longer calm when he heard this: Nonsense!

It's just a rabbit eating grass, confused?

The rabbit demon couldn't understand why Yuan Shouyi in front of him insisted on giving it such a name.

How could it possibly mislead a demon hunter who wanted to take its demon pill?

The rabbit raised its head and looked at the sanctimonious Yuan Shouyi in front of it, and its mouth opened and closed again.

He wanted to say something, but was afraid that if he angered Yuan Shouyi, he would die, so he ended up knocking his rabbit teeth against the cage again.

Up and down, left and right, I can't find the right method.

But the corner of the rabbit's eyes fell on Shen Jingyuan.

It thought that all monster hunters were the same as it, but what it thought was just what it thought.

The rabbit demon did save Shen Jingyuan.

In the third year after Shen Jingyuan was brought back to Chongming Mountain.

That year was the most irrational year for Shen Jingyuan.

After getting the token, he tried to break through the spiritual power shield to rescue his mother, but he almost lost his life due to the backlash of the spiritual power shield.

It was the rabbit demon who brought him some healing herbs.

At that time, the rabbit demon vaguely guessed Shen Jingyuan's identity, but looking at the grass stained red by Shen Jingyuan's blood, the rabbit demon felt pity.

After Shen Jingyuan was rescued, he saw the rabbit demon in front of him.

He had no intention of repaying kindness with enmity, but he became more determined in his thoughts.

Demons can be divided into good and evil, and are not as unjust as that person said.

Probably because it realized that Shen Jingyuan had no ill will towards it, the rabbit demon felt relieved.

Although the foot of the mountain cannot be compared with the mountain, it is definitely a good place for cultivation.

From being cautious at the beginning to completely letting go of myself later.

The rabbit demon's vigilance didn't disappear in just one or two days.

But it never knew that there was another Yuan Shouyi on the mountain.

The shrillness continued.

"It's true that it saved me, and it's also true that I owe it my life."

Shen Jingyuan stated his views calmly.
