Chapter 8 008 Don't bully him anymore

In the end, Yue Ling finished eating the half piglet.

Yin Chu Jiu fed him little by little.

In the Phantom Demon Continent, due to its unique setting, people have large appetites, and children are no exception. They need ample energy and vitality to support their cultivation and combat.

Although Yue Ling is currently unable to cultivate and is just an ordinary person, his physique allows him to eat a lot.

After finishing the piglet at noon that day, Yin Chu Jiu released Yue Ling.

At that moment, Yue Ling suddenly took several steps back, keeping a great distance from him, as if Yin Chu Jiu were a raging flood or a ferocious beast.

Even with hair all over his face, there was still a palpable tension and unease.

He remained wary and resistant, but not as intensely as before.

Changing someone's perception takes time and effort, not just a day or two.

Yin Chu Jiu didn't naively think that Yue Ling would accept the apology quickly. After noon that day, he never appeared in front of Yue Ling again.

He would secretly visit him, send him gifts, and have someone warn the beggars in the dilapidated temple to stop bullying Yue Ling.

In the end, Yue Ling didn't accept his things; in fact, she threw them all out.

However, things are possible with effort, and Yin Chu Jiu did not lose heart.

Yue Ling probably has no idea that there is someone secretly watching him every day.

Unbeknownst to Yue Ling, the more that person looked, the more regretful and remorseful they became.

Meanwhile, Yin Chu Jiu also learned about the current situation on the Illusionary Demon Continent in the past few days.

The Fantasy Demon Continent is still the same Fantasy Demon Continent he wrote, except that it was moved up two or three years in time.

"Young Master, are you going to deliver it again today?"

That day, Yin Chu Jiu had just woken up. He summoned the person who delivered the items to Yue Ling and asked if the same items would be delivered again today.

Yin Chu Jiu washed her face and said, "No need."

"No need?" the man asked in return.

Yin Chu Jiu nodded, "No need."

He decided to go by himself.

These past few days, he's been worried that the frequency of his visits might upset Yue Ling and harm his health, so he's refrained from going.

Now, he doesn't want to do it secretly anymore.

After washing his face, Yin Chu Jiu noticed that the person hadn't left. He looked up and saw the person deep in thought. "Is there anything else you haven't said?"

“It’s like this.” The man said with some distress and confusion, “Young Master, I don’t understand why you insist on sending clothes to that strange Yue Ling. You did bully him before, but I think what you’ve done these past few days has clearly expressed your apology.”

"Yue Ling's refusal is his own fault for being tactless, young master. I think you've really done enough."

Is that enough? No, it's not.

He did not do enough at all; not only was it insufficient, it fell far short.

He ruined someone's life; how could that be enough?

"Stop talking, I don't want to hear you say that again," Yin Chu Jiu said, his head lowered, muttering softly, "All of this is what I owe him."

The man was terrified and didn't understand, but Yin Chu Jiu wasn't going to scold him, so she waved her hand and told him to leave.

After everyone left, Yin Chu Jiu glanced at the clothes prepared for Yue Ling, but he didn't take them and left empty-handed.

Before leaving, he left a letter on the table.

As he went outside, he saw Yin Chusan and a few others playing in the open space at the alley entrance. Yin Chusan and his friends were having a great time when they saw Yin Chujiu come out and rushed over to greet him.

They don't know what Yin Chusan has been saying to them these past few days, but they firmly believe that everything he's doing is a sugar-coated bullet to corrupt Yue Ling.

Several teenagers, all with mischievous looks on their faces.

"Chu Jiu, if you ask me, I think you've done enough. No one has ever been kind to that monster Yue Ling. He's probably incredibly grateful right now. We can make our move."

"Yes, that's right, we can make our move now. Tell us what you're planning to do, and we'll get started."

Yin Chusan then put his arm around Yin Chujiu's shoulder and said with a wicked smile, "Chujiu, I've been doing as you instructed. We haven't bullied that monster Yue Ling these past few days. Are you ready?"

What should we prepare?

Can you please stop distorting the facts and making wild guesses? Yin Chu Jiu slapped Yin Chu San's hand down.

"As I said before, I don't want to bully Yue Ling anymore, and I don't want you to bully Yue Ling either."

"Don't you realize that everything we did before was wrong?"

Yin Chu took two steps back, "What?"

Is there something wrong with his ears? He actually heard Yin Chu Jiu say that they made a mistake.

Although she hadn't missed Yin Chu San and the others' shock, Yin Chu Jiu continued, "I think we made a mistake. Yue Ling didn't do anything, he didn't offend us, yet he's being treated like this. I think it's unfair, and we went too far."

It's not that they went too far, it's that he went too far, he orchestrated all of this.

But to stop Yin Chusan and his gang from bullying Yue Ling, he had no choice but to say that. And for their future safety, he had no other option.

"Ninth day." Yin Chusan finally found his voice, the chubby boy looking incredulous, "You, you're serious?"

Yin Chu Jiu nodded, "Yes, I'm serious."

Yin Chusan was stunned.

After a long pause, a roar filled with despair and rage erupted from the open space: "Yin Chu Jiu, you've gone mad!"

He's not crazy, he's just trying to make amends for his mistakes.

"Third year of junior high." Yin Chu Jiu glanced at Yin Chu San, then at the other children, who were all his cousins. He was the youngest among them. "Brothers, I will not bully Yue Ling anymore. If possible, I hope you will not do so either."

"In short, I'll be wherever Yue Ling is from now on. If Yue Ling gets bullied, I'll help him bully back. If you guys go there... don't blame me for being disrespectful to you as his younger brother."

After saying that, Yin Chu Jiu left.

The remaining kids, including Yin Chusan, were completely bewildered. After a long while, Yin Chuyi poked Yin Chusan on the back and asked, "Chusan, what should we do?"

Yin Chusan was extremely annoyed and growled, "What can I do? Stop bullying Yue Ling!"

"Huh?" Yin Chuyi exclaimed in surprise, "We're really not going?"

"So you don't actually want to fight Chu Jiu anymore?" Yin Chu San retorted unfriendly.

Of course they didn't want to. Chu Jiu was the youngest brother among them. He was fair-skinned and tender since he was a child, and they loved him dearly. How could they bear to hit him?

However, I felt very unwilling to let Yue Ling go like this.

"Um..." Suddenly someone raised their hand and said, "Have you guys noticed that Chu Jiu is dressed strangely today?"

In the dilapidated temple north of the city, Yue Ling took her broken bowl and went out.

Before leaving, he encountered Big Yellow Teeth, who also saw him.

Big Yellow Teeth's attitude was different from before. When he saw him, he didn't come up to mock him. His eyes were still unfriendly, but he wouldn't bully him.

Yue Ling knew the reason; it was done by the people in Juanyun Alley, but he wasn't grateful at all.

"Pah!" Yue Ling left, and Big Yellow Teeth spat at his back. "Didn't they say that the people in Rolling Cloud Alley had given up on this monster? Now they're helping him again. They're crazy."

After leaving the dilapidated temple, Yue Ling did not immediately go to the street where he was begging. Instead, he stood in the open space outside the temple, looking around with a deep gaze.

For the past few days, someone has been standing at the door, waiting for him, and giving him things.

Those things are all different; there will be clothes or food.

He knew who had sent it; it was that brat Yin Chu Jiu.

Do you really think he cares about those things? He doesn't!

After looking around and not seeing anyone, Yue Ling scoffed. Sure enough, any apology was just a lie.

He did all this to humiliate the excuse he came up with.

Suppressing her anger and hatred for Yin Chu Jiu, Yue Ling took the broken bowl and headed towards the place where Yin Chu Jiu usually begged for food.

When he arrived there, he saw that the place where he usually begged for food was already occupied by someone—a little beggar.
