The vendor waited for a moment, and seeing Yan Baibai still didn't move, he rubbed his hands nervously and continued with a smile, "In business, of course you can bargain. How about this: the Iron-eating Beast plus this half-demon, for two thousand spirit stones?"
Yan Baibai didn't waste any words. He took out a storage bag from his storage ring and threw it to the vendor. With a wave of his hand, he put the iron-eating beast and the half-demon child into his own space, then turned around and disappeared into the street.
She found an inn nearby to stay in, and used spiritual materials to make a medicinal bath for the two little guys. Soon after, a baby iron-eating beast wearing a painted skirt and a little boy with curly hair and a high ponytail wearing a black suit were born.
"It's too expensive." The little boy said to Yan Baibai after sitting down.
"It's not expensive. The medicinal herbs and spiritual treasures are all mine. Your clothes are also a magic weapon I accidentally found. They are dust-proof and damage-proof. They can even grow longer when you grow up. It's worth it." Yan Baibai patted the little boy's curly hair and then bent down to kiss the iron-eating beast lying quietly in his arms. He continued, "Of course, your little skirt is the same."
The little boy stared at Yan Baibai's bright red lips for a moment, then quickly turned his head away, curling his lips in annoyance: "Two thousand spirit stones, that's too expensive. When I was sold, that person only spent a hundred spirit stones."
Yan Baibai was silent for a moment, then asked, "Do you... have a name?"
"Lu Wuxiu." Lu Wuxiu replied.
"'Lu' as in seeing justice being done, 'Wu' as in being free from illness and disaster, 'Xiu' as in being immortal?" Yan Baibai continued to ask very naturally. Although she didn't understand why she said that, she just answered very naturally.
Then, Yan Baibai saw the little boy's eyes begin to moisten.
"Hmm? You're going to cry?" Yan Baibai curiously twisted Lu Wuxiu's face, got closer, and murmured, "Isn't it hard for demons to cry? Are half-demons also not easy to cry? Or is it the demons in your Wubai world not easy to cry?"
There are naturally demons in the divine world. Although the characters of demon cultivators are indeed darker than those of other races, they are not as exaggerated as those in the storybooks, who are always thinking about destroying the world. She has traveled through so many worlds, and this is the second demon she has seen crying.
Lu Wuxiu's expression changed, and his eyes slowly dried up. He thought for a moment and asked directly, "Why do you say that? Have you seen other demons in Wubai Realm besides me?"
"I met him in the secret realm not long ago. He was trapped in a certain formation. The formation wasn't difficult to break, but the core of the formation required tears. When I saw him, he seemed to be short of tears. He begged me for tears, but I had none to give him. When I wanted to leave, he shed tears himself. He caught up with me and said that it was all my credit, that I saved his life, and that he wanted to repay me with his body..."
Yan Baibai was talking while combing the hair of the little iron beast in her arms.
"Did you promise that demon?" Lu Wuxiu stood up from the bench in an instant, looking anxious.
"Of course not." Yan Baibai smiled and shook his head.
She had seen this kind of plot in the storybooks during her free time in the God Realm. The demon obviously wanted to gain her trust through this method, let her fall in love with him as they got along, and then dig out her spiritual roots to heal his white moonlight. She would not be fooled, humph!
Lu Wuxiu breathed a sigh of relief. He thought she already knew who the demon was, but then he suddenly thought of something and cautiously asked, "Besides that demon, have you met any other strange people?"
Yan Baibai is not a talkative person. Since her travels, she has only said a few words when writing letters back to the God Realm. She usually speaks as little as possible. In fact, she is a little frustrated. Now that Lu Wuxiu poses no threat to her, she slowly opens up her desire to talk.
"In addition to that demon, I also met strange spiritual cultivators, demon cultivators, ghost cultivators and tall female cultivators, quite a lot of them." Yan Baibai recalled quickly and suddenly felt that these people brought a different feeling to his journey, which was actually not bad.
"You, don't remember the names of those strange people?" Lu Wuxiu frowned slightly.
"Well, this is a characteristic of my clan. It's hard to remember other people's names." Yan Baibai said, and patted Lu Wuxiu's head to comfort him: "But I will try my best to remember your name, Lu Wuxiu."
Lu Wuxiu's mouth corners curled up, although he knew in his heart that this was not the first time Yan Baibai heard his name.
"If you don't mind, could you tell me about those strange people?" He asked a little nervously. He actually just wanted to hear her story about himself, but in order not to arouse her suspicion, he could only ask this.
"Of course, just think of it as a bedtime story." Yan Baibai said as she waved her hand, and Lu Wuxiu appeared under the quilt of the big bed. She held the little foodie beast, who had fallen asleep at some point, and placed it on the side of the bed, and began to tell the story softly.
"That demon kept talking about promising himself to me, but I thought he had other plans for me, so I found an opportunity to leave."
"Not long after I left, I saw another spiritual practitioner holding a giant red sword. The sword flew towards me as soon as it saw me. Although I didn't sense any killing intent, I still knocked the sword away. Later, I went with the spiritual practitioner to look for the giant sword."
"Maybe because we had no weapons, I took good care of the spiritual practitioner whenever we encountered danger along the way. He had quite a good level of cultivation, but he was afraid of the dark. He would light a fire before going to bed at night. However, lighting a fire in the wild would attract monsters that chased the light source, so I objected."
