The little black snake's eyes swept across Ji Qingya's face naturally.

This face is different from the one I saw at first. It must be some kind of magic weapon or elixir that is used to hide itself.

If this person is really Ji Qingya, then he should be recuperating here like himself.

Thinking of this, the little black snake felt a little relieved.

Ji Qingya didn't know that he had been seen through by the other party in an instant.

He continued to ask, "Why are you just standing there without answering?"

The little black snake was silent for a moment, then said, "My name is Qingmu."

As for whether it was a celestial demon or an ancient demon, it pretended not to hear.

Ji Qingya curled his lips when he heard that.

The name Qingmu doesn't sound like a demon at all. This demon probably uses a pseudonym like him.

The situation of a man and a demon was very different, but he didn't care and asked directly about the matter: "How is your injury now? Can you transform?

If possible, come with us today to collect the bodies."

Qing Mu's eyes flashed when he heard this, "Is this what the shopkeeper meant?"

"Of course!"

Ji Qingya patted the coffin board beside him, raised his chin and snorted, "We don't keep idle people here, and the same goes for monsters!"

Aoki couldn't help but feel both amused and confused.

This person's temperament is rare, simple and straightforward. I wonder which immortal he is serving.

But I'm not going to collect the body...

Since he had taken advantage of the opportunity to recuperate here, he couldn't just do nothing.

Thinking of this, Aoki nodded in agreement.

Ji Qingya threw a series of short punches at Qingmu, but he didn't mind. He lowered his head and got into the coffin, using his demonic power to pull the coffin lid shut.

A moment later, an angular hand pushed open the coffin lid.

Aoki, wearing shorts, stepped out of the coffin. He was tall and straight, with clear black and white eyes, and looked no different from a human.

Ji Qingya looked him up and down, and immediately smiled.

Although Qingmu's transformed form was half a head taller than him, his face was not as good-looking as his current one.

That's right, the aesthetic taste of demons has always been different from that of humans. Perhaps in their eyes, this is considered handsome.

This is good. This way, he doesn't have to worry about Aoki shaking his position in Stone Sister's heart.

"hey-hey."

Qingmu didn't know why Ji Qingya was smiling at him, and he was too lazy to ask.

The face he transformed into at this moment was certainly not his original one.

Firstly, it was to avoid the enemy. Secondly...

Ji Qingya and the owner of the coffin shop did not show their true faces, so he could not be treated as inferior for no reason.

At this time, Xiang Sheng came downstairs and looked at the two people downstairs. He said calmly: "Get ready to go."

As soon as these words came out, Ji Qingya immediately nodded and agreed. He then patted Qingmu on the shoulder and said with a wink, "Collecting corpses is also a science. New here, learn a little."

Aoki: "..."

Xiang Sheng tied the straw rope around his waist calmly, his eyes not fixed on either of the two people, his thoughts turning.

Aoki is quite shrewd.

She knew it the moment Aoki pretended to faint when they first met.

These days, she deliberately let Qingmu stay alone in the coffin shop, perhaps with the intention of testing him.

But the other party was very obedient, healing his wounds all day long without revealing any flaws.

It is not easy to get information about the secret realm of the Heavenly Demon from this demon who is so smart and cautious.

Xiang Sheng didn't feel disappointed either.

This is the normal situation. People as naive as Ji Qingya are a minority.

Qingmu's injuries were more serious than Ji Qingya's. She still had enough time to test it out, so there was no need to rush.

A moment later, the three of them dragged the empty coffin out together.

Ji Qingya followed closely on Xiang Sheng's right side, and Qingmu was one body length behind him on the right.

Ji Qingya thought that this demon snake would ask questions impatiently like he did before, and he was even prepared to answer them.

Unexpectedly, the other party was very calm and didn't ask a single question.

Ji Qingya was surprised and felt aggrieved, always feeling that he was being compared to others. Then, he didn't know what he thought of, his brows relaxed, and a smile appeared on his face again.

Aoki saw his expression change and shook his head secretly.

Perhaps because they hadn't come to collect the bodies for several days, there were many newly dead bodies outside the battlefield. The three of them returned with a full load in just half a day.

As soon as they returned to the shop and rearranged the coffins, Ji Qingya jumped out: "Sister Shitou, how about I go first this time?"

Ji Qingya's idea of ​​"showing off in front of newcomers" was almost written on his face, and Xiang Sheng saw it clearly when he turned around.

She had no objection and nodded, stepping aside.

Perhaps because he was too exhausted on the road, Ji Qingya performed exceptionally well this time. The movements of burning incense and offering sacrifices were as smooth as flowing water, and the energy of life and death he finally produced was of higher quality than before.

"How's it going? Aoki, have you learned it?"

After the worship was over, Ji Qingya immediately ran to Qingmu and said, "Try to worship again later. It doesn't matter if you can't produce that aura the first time. You will get it after two days of practice."

Ji Qingya said this, but the smile on his face revealed that he had a completely different idea in his mind.

Those who are not of my race must have different hearts.

He is a human and Qingmu is a demon. Even if he saw the mortals coming to claim the corpse, he probably wouldn't be able to empathize with them, right?

In this case, Aoki would definitely need several more days to learn it than him.

Qingmu didn't hear clearly what Ji Qingya said. Since he saw the breath emanating from the corpse's eyebrows, although he didn't show any abnormality on the surface, his heart was in turmoil.

Xiang Sheng had been secretly keeping an eye on Qingmu. Although the shock in his eyes only flashed for a moment when he saw the aura of life and death, she still keenly caught it.

She narrowed her eyes and said, "Aoki, you try it."

Aoki was silent for a while, then stepped forward to light the incense sticks, took a step back, and held the incense in both hands to worship. His expressionless face showed a rare seriousness and piety.

Ji Qingya saw his expression change and felt something was wrong.

One stick of incense later, his premonition came true.

Xiang Sheng walked to the side of the coffin, reached out and touched the corpse's eyebrows. Under Ji Qingya's incredulous gaze, he intercepted a ball of life and death energy of extremely high quality.

She was slightly surprised and praised softly: "Well done."

Qingmu stared at Xiang Sheng and nodded slightly, "Shopkeeper, you are so kind."

He wanted to hide his weakness, but he revealed a flaw in his shock. The shopkeeper was very perceptive and probably noticed it.

He simply took the initiative to test her, hoping to see something from her reaction.

Unfortunately, the woman seemed to be on guard and he couldn't find out anything.

He lowered his eyes, a hint of thought flashing across his eyes.

The Qi of Life and Death has a wide range of uses, but most of them are related to the souls of the dead. What is the purpose of this woman collecting so much?

Qingmu was thinking, and Xiang Sheng's thoughts were also turning in his heart.

Only Ji Qingya was still immersed in deep frustration.

He, a first-rank Celestial Prodigy from the Celestial Palace, had spent two days learning it. How had Qingmu succeeded on his first try? And done it so perfectly?

Is Master lying to me?

I'm not a first-class genius?

Ji Qingya was still doubting himself when Xiang Sheng suddenly spoke up: "Qingmu, are you an ancient demon or not?"
