Me, a Demon, You Want Me to Learn Demon Hunting?

A young man in China wields twin swords—one to sever souls, the other to slay evil. Though a bit lacking in morals, he’s not entirely beyond redemption.

With his half-demon heritage, he carve...

Chapter 9 Loyalty that lasts a thousand years, shining as brightly as the sun and moon

"And what about us?"

Feng Ling asked, "What is the purpose of our Feng family? To eat people? To kill spirit masters?"

Tianya shook his head, picked up another cigarette, took a drag, and coughed a few times.

Looking up, all I saw was an uneven wall, nothing else.

He stared at the wall in silence for a long time before slowly speaking:

"I will never forget the words of the patriarch: 'Sky Crow, follow me, follow me, and be reborn on this land of China!'"

"He is the greatest demon I have ever seen in all my years of existence, the demon king I admire the most."

Feng Ling was somewhat surprised to hear this and said:

"Rebirth? Can a demon be reborn as a human?"

Tianya smiled:

"cannot."

After thinking about it for a moment, I understood somewhat:

"Like Xiaoxiao, reborn?"

Tianya continued to smile and shook his head:

"Yes and no, you'll understand later, young master."

Feng Ling remained silent for a long time after hearing this; he actually understood a little bit...

But he couldn't do it; he wasn't interested in all that fighting and killing.

Although Xiaoxiao was pitiful and Tianya was very loyal, he felt that he was not worthy to be their master.

Finally, I sighed:

"I'm sorry, Sky Crow, I can't fulfill your wish. I just want to be an ordinary person..."

After saying that, he looked at Tianya somewhat embarrassedly, but he still had a shameless idea.

That is to ask the crow to help him get through tonight's ordeal.

She could have lied to him about helping her first before saying those things.

But looking into Tianya's sincere eyes, Fengling couldn't do it.

Upon hearing this, Tianya did not show any disappointment, but instead said decisively:

"No, young master, your wish is my wish."

As he spoke, Tianya knelt down, his gaze fixed firmly on Fengling:

"If you wish to live as an ordinary person, then my sole mission for the rest of my soul is to protect you, to help you crush all obstacles, and to eliminate all enemies."

"I will go through fire and water without hesitation!"

"Though I am not the spirit of the Feng family, I possess the soul of the Feng family! I will protect the lord of the Feng family!"

"A thousand soldiers and ten thousand horses, we will never retreat!"

"His loyalty will last for a thousand autumns and ten thousand generations, shining as brightly as the sun and moon!"

The sound echoed in the dark space, startling the eunuchs who stared wide-eyed, somewhat bewildered...

Similarly, the wind chimes were also unable to recover from the sound for a long time.

His loyalty will endure for eternity, shining as brightly as the sun and moon...

This loyalty is a bit too heavy a burden for Fengling right now.

Just then, Xiaoxiao ran over with a grin, imitating Tianya, and shouted:

"Haha, well, um, although I... uh, I forgot! Anyway, I'm willing to follow the young master! Um, I, no, I'm super awesome! Hehe!"

"I can do laundry! I can mop the floor! I can steam white rice! The head of the household used to love the white rice I cooked!"

It was supposed to be quite serious, but Xiaoxiao's antics made Fengling burst into laughter again.

"You two get up first."

Xiaoxiao chuckled and stood up, but Tianya refused and continued:

“The patriarch has passed away. If the young master does not acknowledge me, then I am unworthy. I can only go with the patriarch’s spirit.”

Hearing him say that, Fengling could only helplessly reply:

"Okay, okay, I admit it!"

Tianya slowly stood up, and a kind and gratified smile appeared on his face once again.

To prevent him from having any illusions about her, she said:

"But let me make this clear beforehand: I don't have any grand ambitions. I won't do anything like helping you all be reborn or anything like that. I just want to do my own thing in a down-to-earth manner. If you have any wishes, such as reviving the Feng family or eliminating spirit masters, go and accomplish them yourselves. I won't interfere with any of them!"

Tianya laughed and said:

"Young Master, you have already given me a second chance at life."

"Okay, okay, stop saying such cheesy things, I can't stand it."

He brushed the goosebumps off his arms and told Tianya about the predicament he was facing.

Xiaoxiao perked up again after hearing this:

"Aha! Young Master, leave it to Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxiao is incredibly capable!"

What do you want to do?

Xiaoxiao waved her fist, glaring fiercely as she said:

"I'll punch them all to death! Hehehe~"

Fengling hesitated, then decided against it and decided not to discourage her.

Those two spirit masters could send Xiaoxiao saying goodbye with a single shot.

But the crow said:

"Xiaoxiao, that won't do. The young master wants to continue living in this world as an ordinary person after tonight. You'll get into big trouble if you do that."

Wind Chime nodded quickly. Sky Crow was indeed a clever demon!

"Ha~ Okay then~ I'll think about it some more~"

After saying that, he began to think about it seriously.

"No need to think about it."

The wind chimes interrupted her, then said to the crow:

"Can't you turn me into a human? As long as you can guarantee I won't turn into a demon halfway through, help me pass the test, and there's no demonic energy fluctuation, I'll be a free man after tonight!"

Sky Crow shook his head:

"Young Master, I cannot guarantee... If I use my demonic power to suppress you, they will still be able to detect it if they investigate carefully."

"Furthermore, are you sure that even if you don't awaken, the Bai family will let you live past tonight?"
