The Demon Posing as a System

As the notorious demon lord in a book, Fang Wei's first step to breaking free from his seal is to gain the protagonist's trust. Thus, Fang Wei remotely guided the protagonist to raid his fo...

Chapter 102

Fang Wei finally agreed to Hua Shi's request and changed back to her original appearance to meet Hua Shi's request.

Hua Shi was held in Fang Wei's arms, sniffing the scent of Liu Qishuang. His hands froze there, not knowing whether he should place them on the other's back or take them back. In the end, he could only hang in the air stupidly, grasping the air helplessly.

After this, Hua Shi seemed to have found the right way to act coquettishly and after each practice, he would always pretend to be pitiful, bitter and tired and seek comfort from Fang Wei.

Sometimes it's a hug, sometimes it's a talk, or even a rub on the head or a smile. Hua Shi will be happy for a long time and feel energized.

Fang Wei saw through Hua Shi's tactics after the first two times, but Hua Shi pretended to be pitiful too realistically, and Fang Wei was ultimately unable to reject him.

However, Fang Wei was not dull. Ever since Hua Shi woke up from Hui Mengzhu's dream last time, his words and deeds had changed a lot. He couldn't tell what Hua Shi was thinking, but he could still feel the obvious difference.

He had some suspicion that Hua Shi had already seen through his identity, but in his opinion, he was always with Hua Shi, and if Hua Shi discovered or knew something, he should also know it.

If Hua Shi could really guess something, how did he guess it?

Fang Wei had no way to confirm this matter, and Hua Shi had no intention of asking, so Fang Wei could only keep his guess in his heart. After all, if the other party didn't say anything, there was no reason for him to expose himself, and he could only continue to get along with him in the usual way.

Next, Hua Shi's training became more and more intense. In the past, when Hua Shi came back, he could still find ways to act pitiful and ask Fang Wei for a hug, but now he didn't even have the energy to act pitiful. He often fell asleep as soon as he returned to his room. However, before falling asleep, he would still hold the white cat and murmur Liu Qishuang's name.

He looked even more pitiful now than when he pretended to be pitiful some time ago.

Later, Fang Wei couldn't stand it anymore and took the initiative to suggest to everyone that Hua Shi should have more rest time. Only then did he feel a little less tired.

However, after he was no longer so tired, Hua Shi's little thoughts gradually emerged again.

For example, the Hua family was afraid that their young master would suffer in the sect, so they sent dozens of servants to serve the young master. Although this group of people were driven out by Xuan Shuzhi and others on the grounds of interfering with the disciples' practice, two cooks were still retained by Hua Shi.

After practicing martial arts in the sect, Hua Shi could often eat the delicious food made by them. Every time he ate something delicious, he would always ask the chef to make a more exquisite one, and then bring the food to the Yunxiu Pen Space to give to the white cat.

He would also sit beside and watch the white cat's reaction after eating. As long as Fang Wei nodded after eating, Hua Shi would immediately show his joy on his face.

In addition to this, Hua Shi would also find all kinds of gifts for Fang Wei, such as flowers that he asked someone to pick from a faraway place and send over by flying sword, small accessories bought from a shop in Hanxi City, and all kinds of cat toys.

Tian Huashi even tied a beautiful golden bow on the white cat's tail with his own hands.

Fang Wei: “…”

He moved his tail uncomfortably, but seeing Hua Shi's expectant look, he finally indulged her and let her keep the bow, saying, "Why did you think of giving me this?"

Hua Shi scratched his head helplessly. He knew very well that Liu Qishuang had only temporarily turned into a white cat, so it was certainly not appropriate for him to send these things. But now he was still pretending that he didn't know the truth, so it was not appropriate to send anything else, so he could only send food and these things.

Hua Shi had not gone out to practice martial arts today. He admired the white cat's appearance and could not help but stroke its fur. Then he started to pack his clothes and prepare to go out. He asked the white cat, "Are you going to see Senior Jiang today as well?"

Fang nodded. During this period, when Hua Shi was practicing, he would sometimes watch from the side, and sometimes he would go to see Jiang Tingwan to try to cure his madness.

When Hua Shi heard about this, he uttered an "oh" in a muffled voice, but after trying to hold it in, he still couldn't help but whispered, "I took over 170 moves from Senior Yi Zhan yesterday, which is more than before."

These words seemed to imply that he was unwilling to compete with Jiang Tingwan for attention.

Fang Wei said with a smile: "There seems to be some progress in the treatment of Jiang Tingwan's poison injury, so I will spend more time with him recently."

Hua Shi looked at Fang Wei in surprise, and immediately forgot about competing for favor: "Really?"

Fang Wei nodded and smiled, "Once it's resolved, you won't need me to keep an eye on Jiang Tingwan anymore. I can accompany you to practice martial arts every day."

Hua Shi was so overwhelmed by the sudden joy that he happily spun around with the white cat in his arms before he remembered that he was going to be late for practice. He quickly packed up his clothes and put Fang Wei back on the table. Fang Wei looked at her messed up fur helplessly and asked, "Who taught you practice today?"

Hua Shi was eating the breakfast that was prepared on the table in advance, and responded, "It's Senior Bai Heng."

Fang Wei had always been confident in Bai Heng, so she didn't ask any more questions after hearing that it was her. However, Hua Shi was already full of doubts. He raised his head and whispered to Fang Wei, "In fact, I still haven't accepted the fact that Senior Bai Heng is a woman."

Fang Wei: “…”

In fact, it was not just Hua Shi. Many people could not tell Bai Heng's gender when they first saw him.

Hua Shi seemed to feel that what he said just now was not quite right, and waved his hand to explain: "It's not that there is anything wrong with Senior Bai Heng being a woman, it's just... she is too handsome in my impression. Ever since I met Senior Bai Heng in Yuan Lake, I have felt that she is a particularly handsome and reliable uncle. Who knows..."

Fang Wei's tone changed: "Handsome uncle?"

Although her age could not be seen from her appearance, Bai Heng was indeed worthy of this generation according to her age. However, if Bai Heng knew that this was how Hua Shi viewed her, she did not know how she would feel.

Fang Wei thought about this silently, and then heard Hua Shi ask, "Oh, oh, Senior Wen Zhong and Senior Bai Heng had a special relationship in the past, right?"

Hua Shi was right about this. Fang Wei said "hmm" softly and asked, "Why are you talking about this suddenly?"

Hua Shi said, "Because Senior Wen Zhong's state of being possessed by the devil is sometimes good and sometimes bad. When he is in a good mood, he has a very good temper and never gets angry. He is gentle and polite to everyone. But when he is possessed by the devil, he changes completely. He is ruthless and wants to attack anyone. Even my master and Senior Yi Zhan are afraid of him. Sometimes the two of them would quarrel fiercely, but as soon as they see Senior Wen Zhong frowning, they would immediately make up."

Fang Wei: “…”

From this perspective, Wen Zhong's presence seems to have become much stronger after he became a demon.

Hua Shi went on to say, "But after Senior Wen Zhong became a demon, he was not afraid of anyone except Senior Bai Heng." Of course, Wen Zhong's attitude towards the white cat was also different, but Hua Shi did not take this into account, because in his opinion, Liu Qishuang was so good, naturally everyone should like him.

Hua Shi asked curiously, "What did Senior Bai Heng do in the past to make Senior Wen Zhong so afraid of her?"

What happened between them?

Fang Wei couldn't tell Hua Shi, because the truth was not what Hua Shi thought. Although Bai Heng looked cold and tough, in fact, when dealing with Wen Zhong, she used a gentle attitude that she never showed in front of others.

The reason why Wen Chong was afraid of her after he became a demon was probably not because he was really afraid, but rather a way of escaping. He didn't want Bai Heng to see his current appearance.

Fang Wei didn't say these words, so Hua Shi could only think about it by himself. He pondered for a while and suddenly said, "I remember that I felt that Senior Bai Heng's name was very familiar. Now that I think about it, she was one of the guardians of Fengyu Palace back then, right? Senior Wen Zhong was the left guardian, and Senior Bai Heng was the right guardian. No wonder their relationship is so unusual!"

No one deliberately concealed Hua Shi's identities, so Fang Wei did not stop him from continuing to think about the matter.

He was even prepared to answer Hua Shi's questions.

Sure enough, Hua Shi soon felt something was wrong, or this doubt had actually been hidden in his heart for a long time: "Why am I clearly in possession of the script of saving Xuanqing Continent and collecting the former subordinates of the first generation of spiritual masters, but the seniors I have found now are all related to the evil ways of the past?" Even Xuan Shuzhi and Yi Zhan, who have now become the master of Xuanling Pavilion and the master of Poxuezhai, were also elders of the evil ways in the past, not to mention Fengyu Palace's left and right protectors Wen Zhongbaiheng, and the former master of Cuixing Tower Jiang Tingwan.

Fang Wei said: "They..."

But before he could finish his words, Hua Shi continued, "Moreover, none of the seniors look like the evil cult members that the public knows about. They all look righteous and awe-inspiring. If we talk about the pillars of the righteous path, I'm afraid no one can look more like a pillar of the righteous path than Senior Swordsman."

Fang Wei was suddenly speechless.

Hua Shi blinked and said, "So they were originally the former subordinates of the Lord of the Spiritual Path, and they only sneaked into the evil path to become Fang Wei's subordinates in order to protect the Xuanqing Continent?"

Fang Wei: “…”

In fact, he was a little confused. Although the evil ways in the past were called evil ways, the people in them all looked very elegant, without any evil aura at all.

Hua Shi muttered to himself for a while, and finally abandoned the correct answer that Fang Wei was going to give, and made his own judgment: "Speaking of which, the evil master Fang Wei seems a bit pitiful. A big devil is surrounded by people of the righteous path."

However, he didn't know that in fact the big devil was the real pillar of the spiritual path.

Fang Wei wanted to talk about something but stopped herself, and finally gave up talking about this matter. These things could only be explained in the future.

The two of them talked in the room for a long time, and by the time Hua Shi realized it, it was almost time for daily practice. Hua Shi quickly got up and skillfully carried the cat out, preparing to send the cat to Jiang Tingwan first, and then go to Bai Heng to practice.

However, to his surprise, this time he did not see the owner of Jiang Tingwan's room, but instead saw Xuan Shuzhi.

Hua Shi was stunned: "Master? How did you get into this space?"

Xuan Shuzhi raised his eyebrows and said, “I didn’t see you in your room. I saw Yunxiu’s pen on the table, so I came in on my own.”

Hua Shi hadn't yet digested the fact that his master had already learned how to use the Yunxiu Pen without any instruction, but Xuan Shuzhi was not the type to casually break into other people's rooms. He must have something important to inform him of. Thinking of this, Hua Shi hurriedly asked, "Master, what's wrong?"

Xuan Shuzhi was quite impressed with Hua Shi's sharp reaction, and nodded with a smile. Then he looked at the white cat in Hua Shi's arms and said with a curled lip corner: "Lu Yao is here."
