"Those who don't want to die, get up and come with me," Mi Wei said coldly, looking down at Ji Fenghua with disdain.

But she was beautiful and had a very gentle temperament. Even though she pretended to be cold, she still looked soft.

"Sister, I'm not a bad person, I won't hurt you, you don't need to do this." Because she was Mi Xi's sister and had rescued him from the Qu family's dungeon, Ji Fenghua didn't care about Mi Wei's feigned indifference and fierceness, and instead showed a bright smile.

That handsome yet childlike smile truly dazzled Mi Wei's eyes:

They were right after all; evil spirits are indeed adept at bewitching people.

Xi'er must have been bewitched by him in this way, which is why she was so stubborn in wanting to save and bring back this little demon.

"Don't you dare grin at me anymore, or I'll gouge your eyes out!" Mi Wei made a vicious digging motion with two fingers.

Ji Fenghua: "..."

Xi'er seems like a very gentle girl, so why is she pretending to be so fierce?

Is it because she believes he is a demon that she can't be friends with him like Xi'er?

Thinking about this, Ji Fenghua felt somewhat frustrated with her current situation.

But he didn't blame Mi Wei.

If it were him, and he suddenly encountered a monster without having personally experienced these things, he might be even more ferocious than Mi Wei.

Mi Wei drew her longsword, picked up Ji Fenghua, and threw her in front of her.

Fourteen-year-old girls are at the age of physical development and growth, while twelve-year-old Ji Fenghua's body has not yet officially entered the developmental stage.

The little boy was a full head shorter than the girl.

Mi Wei looked at the jade crown on the head of the young boy in front of her, and an indescribable feeling swept through her heart.

Although the jade crown has little spiritual power, it is not something a demon should wear.

Most of the demons she had seen before would disguise themselves as ordinary humans, not cultivators.

Because spiritual energy is the natural enemy of demons, if a demon is given even a trace of spiritual energy, it will have to use two parts of its demonic energy to neutralize it.

(Conversely, the same applies to the conflict between spiritual cultivation and demonic energy.)

Unable to contain her curiosity, Mi Wei scanned the jade crown with her divine sense a few more times and discovered that several words were engraved inside:

Congratulations to our beloved son on his coming-of-age ceremony!

There was no trace of demonic energy remaining on the jade crown, so it remained clean and radiant.

This proves that the little demon usually protects the jade crown very well and does not allow its demonic energy to corrode it.

This also proves that the jade crown was not made by a demon, but by a spiritual cultivator.

Mi Wei was completely baffled: What kind of spiritual practitioner would personally make a gift for a demon, especially something used for spiritual practice?

It says "Coming of Age in Advance" on it, but this little monster is only this big; it's still a long way from being an adult.

He must have stolen this jade crown from someone else to conceal his identity!

To avoid being misled by Ji Fenghua, Mi Wei deliberately assumed the worst about everything.

Throughout the journey, Ji Fenghua neither ran away nor made a fuss. Apart from asking Mi Xi when she would join them, he didn't say a word.

When he didn't have fangs, he was just a normal, handsome young man.

Moreover, he seemed unable to break his spiritual habits, often doing things that he would do subconsciously during spiritual practice, such as meditation.

Then, he accidentally absorbed spiritual energy and was so badly hurt by himself.

Finally, I went to sleep that night.

This little guy also seemed to have unknowingly absorbed a large amount of spiritual energy, almost killing himself!
