Chapter 102 Leaving Snow Crystal City

The blush that had faded from Feng Huaijin's face returned. After saying this, he lowered his head as if embarrassed, like a shy young wife—if one ignored the fact that his arm was still wrapped tightly around Su Yu's leg.

This bastard, taking advantage of his bloodline awakening, saw his cultivation level surge and break through to the early stage of the Void Refinement realm. In terms of strength alone, Su Yu was no match for him.

Su Yu took a deep breath and tried to calm down.

"You've gotten bolder?"

"...He hasn't gotten much fatter."

"Your sour candy is off-limits for six months."

Feng Huaijin quickly let go and stood up obediently, but the distance between him and Su Yu never exceeded one palm's width.

“Brother, I was wrong,” he followed Su Yu closely as she walked out. “How about I do the hard labor for you? Let’s not ban the candy.”

Su Yu's brow twitched. He thought to himself, what kind of hard labor could he possibly need Feng Huaijin to do? This kid would be more than happy to serve tea, pour water, and cook. It would be better to take this opportunity to help Twelve of the Precepts quit his sugar addiction.

After Feng Shier had been with him for a while, he would ask him if he had any candy, and he didn't want any other flavors, he only wanted sour candy. This made him quite suspicious that the system might have added something addictive to the candy, but thankfully, the test results showed that it was just normal candy.

Since it didn't have any negative impact, Su Yu often kept some sour candy for Feng Huaijin, and over the years it had become a habit.

Anyway, demons who cultivate don't suffer from tooth decay.

Previously, Su Yu felt that Feng Huaijin was eating too much candy, so she limited his intake, giving him a small jar of sour candy every month or two.

"No, shut up and behave."

Su Yu refused the three-step challenge and quickened her pace, with Feng Huaijin following closely behind.

Clearly, he only felt ashamed for a short while after the abnormal period ended, and immediately straightened up after discovering that Su Yu actually indulged him quite a bit.

He did a really great job during that unusual period!

Feng Huaijin remained silent for only a few breaths before unable to contain herself any longer and asked, "Brother always keeps his word. I'm fully recovered now, so can I pursue you?"

As soon as he said it, he regretted being so hasty and unprofessional. But delay could lead to complications, and it wouldn't be good if his brother forgot about it.

His breathing became lighter, as if he was afraid of hearing rejection or denial.

Su Yu: "..."

Was it really that sudden? He thought this matter could be delayed any longer.

However, one must keep one's word. As the eldest brother, he should set an example and take the lead in cultivating good character in his younger siblings.

It's okay, it's not like we're really dating, it's just something we're pursuing.

He tried to comfort himself.

So why is the question being asked the same as in a relationship?

Her fingers, hanging naturally at her sides, seemed to shrink back in fear. Su Yu quickly blurted out, "Of course."

It was light and airy, almost indistinguishable from a silent whisper, as if it were just a promise to some trivial matter.

But it was enough for Feng Huaijin to catch the permission. He had just involuntarily shown a happy expression when he saw Su Yu in front of him quicken his pace, walking like the wind and showing no intention of waiting for him.

He paused for a moment, then a smile crept up his lips. Whether it was shyness or impatience, his brother was not indifferent to the matter.

"Brother, wait for me!"

Feng Huaijin took a few big strides to catch up, but Su Yu pushed him away a little further away with a hint of disdain.

Even though he used a cleansing spell during his seclusion, he didn't have time to take a bath, so in Su Yu's eyes he was still pretty much the same as not having washed at all, and was very dirty.

"Go take a shower as soon as you get back to the inn."

"Okay, brother."

Su Yu's brow twitched, and she quickened her pace again, not daring to look into Feng Huaijin's incredibly bright eyes, as she always felt that this demon still had some trace of his abnormal period.

He initially wanted to say that since the pursuer was insisted upon, he shouldn't call him "brother," but then he thought about how the pursuer should address him...

Calling him by his name directly? That's too formal, it feels like the older brother is being provoked and pressured by his younger brother. Nicknames are even worse, the nicknames given by parents are considered bad, they should be buried forever and never see the light of day. His and Su Yao's formal names are already the result of their extraordinary efforts.

Forget it, I'll just call you brother.

As the sun sets and shadows loom, the two figures racing one after the other finally slow down and then slowly come together side by side.

Back at the inn, Su Yufeng went straight to his room, leaving Feng Huaijin, who was a step behind and wanted to catch up, to stare at the closed door.

He wasn't upset at all; on the contrary, he happily and obediently went back to his room.

It's okay. Pushing too hard isn't good either; my brother might want to run away.

At worst, I can climb through the window at night.

A stranger broke into my window.

Night fell outside the window, and the stars twinkled.

Feng Huaijin, his face grim and murderous, held his sword against the intruder's neck, his bloodshot eyes filled with malice and ferocity.

He has never had much patience for things that have nothing to do with Su Yu.

He thought, "I'll ask him what his purpose is, and then I'll kill him."

Keep your movements quiet so as not to disturb your brother and make him worry.

The black-clad demon, crouching on the ground, slowly raised his hands, cold sweat pouring from his face beneath the black mask.

"Please spare my life, Your Excellency! I am a subordinate of the Phantom Demon King, and I have come to address your matter regarding the awakening of your bloodline."

The ancient and powerful bloodline has been fully awakened, and some old demons can always sense the familiar aura.

The blade pressed closer to his neck, and the black-clad demon, disregarding everything else, quickly swore an oath that he meant no harm and was purely kind-hearted.

The oath is valid, heaven and earth bear witness, the sword has been moved.

The black-clad demon breathed a sigh of relief, silently shedding tears in his heart. Although he said that because he couldn't be completely sure if it was the reincarnation of that person, this reason, which was purely out of kindness, was too absurd. It didn't matter, as long as the oath was effective, it was fine.

Ah! Why did he even come to this godforsaken place, Baiyu, for a vacation only to end up with this mission?!

This little devil is absolutely terrifying!

Su Yu had already planned her next move.

Jingdian had previously told him that Snow Crystal Peak was just a branch of the Zhongbai Mountain Range, and its main feature was that it produced a lot of magical plants and crystals. However, when it came to cultivation, for ice-type cultivators, the ice-type magical energy of the main vein of Zhongbai Mountain was the most concentrated, making it suitable for closed-door cultivation.

Whether it's fighting the Demon Lord or controlling the White Domain, his cultivation level and strength are still insufficient.

Before he went into seclusion, he wanted to go to Baicheng, the main city of Baiyu, with Feng Huaijin to make some arrangements. They would then close the net after he returned from seclusion. Before going into seclusion, he also needed to remember to kick Feng Huaijin out for training and collect the forces he had lost in his previous life.

...Maybe after experiencing things on my own and seeing more of the world, my feelings for him will fade away?

Before heading to the White Domain, Shu Yuanlan confirmed once again that she didn't need to accompany her for protection. After giving her two junior disciples a few high-level defensive magic artifacts, she disappeared again.

Her actions were perfectly in line with her demonic nature, and the fact that she lost all attributes when she let go was also unusually pronounced.

Wen Shu didn't expect things to be resolved so quickly. Their commander had prepared to give them a two-year leave, but how long has it been?

Judging from this, the power behind these two demons may be even greater than they initially estimated. Having obtained the alchemy method and established contact with the Ghost Market, this is quite an opportunity, considering that no demon in their small town knew about the Ghost Market's preferential policies.

Wen Shu decided to cooperate with the Ghost Market and stay with his younger brother to study the alchemy method given by Su Yu to improve their alchemy skills and earn some magic stones along the way.
