Upon seeing this, Yin Huaizhu's deep eyes darkened further.
He keenly sensed the hint of unease that was creeping into Hang Suisui's heart at that moment.
He pulled Hang Suisui closer to his chest, and tightened his arms around her a little.
Yin Huaizhu gently patted Hang Suisui's back.
The little girl in his arms no longer had the feeling of helplessness he had when he was a young girl, when he couldn't even get close to her.
It felt like going back to the beginning, when I could hold her in my arms without any worries every day.
There's no need to worry that she'll feel offended just because she's a woman.
"Does Sui Sui have any concerns?"
Hang Suisui's eyelids, which were buried in Yin Huaizhu's chest, trembled.
Continue listening to the warm, soothing voice above my head.
“If the other party makes the first move, it is only natural for you to dodge and fight back. You fight back because the other party made the first move. Just because the other party is human and you are a demon does not mean you have to give in to him.”
Although Yin Huaizhu didn't know Hang Suisui's specific concerns, he could guess the general idea from their motivations for fighting each other.
It was simply that the Taoist priest wanted to subdue the demon, but Hang Suisui was worried about not wanting to hurt anyone.
Thinking of this, Yin Huaizhu lowered his eyes and looked at Hang Suisui in his arms.
Still so kind............
However, a demon's kindness is difficult to tolerate in this mortal world.
Now that we've encountered a Taoist priest who can subdue demons, it's hard to say we won't encounter thousands upon thousands more in the future.
The world is peaceful and stable, yet a demon has appeared.
Regardless of their religious affiliation, all would be wary of Hang Suisui.
After all, a demon's abilities are far too extraordinary.
After his death, the new head of the Zhenling Division might very well make things difficult for Hang Suisui.
Yin Huaizhu now only wants to do more for Hang Suisui in his limited time.
Upon hearing this, Hang Suisui simply buried her head in Yin Huaizhu's arms and nodded gently.
"I know."
Hang Suisui couldn't tell Yin Huaizhu the reasons behind this, nor would the system allow her to.
When it comes to things like missions, systems, soul travel, rebirth, or going home, it's impossible to talk about them.
It's either been muted or banned.
Yin Huaizhu stroked Hang Suisui's hair up and down with his palm, his gaze deep, and asked softly.
"What kind of person is that Taoist priest?"
Hang Suisui moved her head, tilted her head back, and reached out to tug at Yin Huaizhu's collar.
"He's just a sixteen or seventeen-year-old kid, young and impetuous. I don't know which master he's followed. I'll just keep an eye on him next time I see him. I don't want to make things difficult for him."
Hearing Yin Huaizhu's question, Hang Suisui had the feeling that a child was complaining to their parents, and the parents were going to reason with the other party.
Are they in reversed positions?!
Hang Suisui shook her head, shaking off this strange illusion.
Then Yin Huaizhu let out a soft sigh.
"well................."
He held Hang Suisui tightly in his arms, their eyes meeting: "I don't want to see you get hurt."
Hang Suisui said in a low voice, "Just this once, it won't happen again."
Yin Huaizhu stroked her hair and comforted her, "You must tell me if you encounter something like this again."
He gazed into Hang Suisui's eyes with utmost seriousness: "I hope I am someone you can trust unconditionally, understand?"
Hang Suisui gazed into Yin Huaizhu's earnest eyes, nodded slightly, and felt an immense warmth in her heart.
She could truly feel Yin Huaizhu's seriousness.
Yin Huaizhu has almost exposed all her secrets; if she doesn't trust him, who else can she trust?
Although Yin Huaizhu was her mission target, after spending so much time together, Hang Suisui had long regarded Yin Huaizhu as a close friend.
Hang Suisui reached out her little hand and patted Yin Yin Huaizhu's chest.
"You even know my past, of course I trust you. Besides, you're the first person I've ever met in this world."
As she spoke, Hang Suisui's body glowed with a fluorescent light that spread out in small spots.
As soon as she finished speaking, she transformed back into a young girl in Yin Huaizhu's arms.
Hang Suisui sat on Yin Huaizhu's lap, her fair toes touching the ground, her hands gently patting Yin Huaizhu's chest, her long black hair cascading down her back.
A fresh scent of grass and trees lingered in the air, and Hang Suisui's clear, glass-like eyes were fixed on Yin Huaizhu's deep pupils.
Yin Huaizhu's hands, which were wrapped around Hang Suisui's waist, trembled slightly at Hang Suisui's sudden change.
He was at a loss, and his body stiffened slightly.
Then we heard Hang Suisui's next words.
"Of course you're different from others."
A clear, girlish voice rang in Yin Huaizhu's ears one after another.
The first person I met in this world...............
You are different from others..............
Unlike others...
no the same..............
These words kept repeating in Yin Huaizhu's ears and mind, and even when he wanted to loosen his grip on Hang Suisui's waist, he tightened his grip.
Yin Huaizhu looked at Hang Suisui's slightly parted lips and couldn't hear the rest of what Hang Suisui said.
Yin Huaizhu's eyes flickered as he looked at the girl in front of him, a complex and unfamiliar feeling suddenly welling up in his heart.
He spoke slowly, his voice low and gentle, yet with a hint of panic: "Sui Sui, I...I..."
