"No, you are not a demon. I only sensed a trace of demonic energy on you and thought it was from here until I saw your eyes. You are a half-demon."
Shen Hua spoke with certainty, but Xie Sichen was surprised.
Knowing so much? And able to sense demonic energy, he's no ordinary person. That was what he was thinking.
Moreover, there are very few people in this world who know about the existence of half-demons.
"You seem to know a lot. That's right, I am a half-demon."
Chen Hua: ...
She didn't need his praise; all she asked was a name, why did it escalate to other things?
Seeing her impatience, Xie Sichen found it somewhat amusing and said, "My name is Xie Sichen."
"Yes! My name is Shen Hua, Xie Sichen. It's nice to meet you. Your eyes are very beautiful."
Shen Hua, with her baby face, spoke these words in a serious manner, creating a charming contrast.
She was still looking into those eyes, but after Xie Sichen looked away, she turned her head away.
Xie Sichen's thoughts were still on that sentence: it was the first time someone had said that his eyes were beautiful.
Because it took a while to turn his head, Shen Hua's bones made a cracking sound when he turned back.
"Chen Hua, I've remembered this. Don't tell anyone that I'm a half-demon."
Xie Sichen didn't know why she didn't show any other expression when she knew he was the Demon Queen, but he still had to talk about it.
He only said that, assuming she wouldn't tell anyone, and he wasn't threatening her.
"Yes, I understand. People nowadays hate demons very much. If they see one, they either capture it, slice it up, or study it. I get it."
Xie Sichen's lips twitched. He really knows a lot.
Shen Hua remembered that she seemed to have a dagger in her space, and it wasn't an ordinary one; it might be useful.
So she took out the dagger and began to cut the ropes binding her.
A few minutes later, Shen Hua was freed. Looking at the man who had little strength left, Shen Hua decided to be a good person and went over to cut his ropes.
Surprisingly, the rope is of pretty good quality; even a dagger that can cut through iron like mud couldn't slice it in one go.
Xie Sichen forced himself to lift his head and was met with Chen Hua's face. Faced with this close visual impact, he quickly looked down at the rope.
Then, he saw the dagger. Qi was somewhat excited, and his gaze toward Chen Hua was strange.
He thought of that person, whose gender he couldn't tell, and compared them to this innocent little girl, and felt that they weren't the same person at all.
But his dagger is now in her possession, and this dagger is very important to him, so he must get it back.
But I was disguised that day, and if I asked for it rashly, I might expose myself.
Furthermore, he wasn't sure if this little girl was that Venerable One, so he couldn't make a move.
Let's observe first and see if it is indeed that Venerable One.
If it's her, he'll explain the reason and then exchange it for something else. If not, he'll ask the girl what their relationship is.
The little girl doesn't mind that he's a demon, but that venerable one might not. If she finds out that he took the divine flower she was protecting, who knows what kind of trouble that would cause him.
"Okay, why are you staring at me like that? No matter how pretty I am, I'm not as pretty as you, especially your eyes."
The man stared at her blankly, and Shen Hua almost thought he had seen through her disguise.
Xie Sichen snapped out of his daze, somewhat awkwardly shifting his gaze elsewhere.
It's truly remarkable that someone could remain so calm and unaffected by seeing his entire appearance and the charm emanating from his eyes—a first in history.
"Hahaha! You've actually untied the Immortal Binding Rope, but none of you will escape."
