Chapter 248 I will never admit it!
“Ah, this.”
Seeing the mermaid girl in his arms with a sweet smile but emitting an extremely terrifying aura, Su Ming was completely numb.
Su Ming, who had just defeated a five-star peak hunter who was only one step away from becoming a six-star professional, actually felt a greater threat from Xiao Haier than that powerful enemy at this moment.
Yes, it's a threat.
Su Ming definitely felt a hint of threat from Xiao Haier.
What does this mean? It means that Xiao Haier's strength at this moment is very likely to be better than Su Ming.
This made Su Ming confused.
Although Su Ming had never fought against a real superior phantom demon in person, he couldn't help but wonder whether the superior phantom demon was as powerful as the current Xiao Haier.
According to the professional circle, the dangerous species among the upper-level phantom demons are the ones that only four-star professionals can barely contend with, and five-star professionals can truly try to conquer. Their strength should be roughly between four and five stars, and no more than five stars at most.
In other words, a dangerous species is at most comparable to a five-star professional, and may even be slightly weaker than a five-star professional, but slightly stronger than a four-star professional, with its strength somewhere in between the two.
The same is true for the nightmare species. According to the professional circle, only six-star professionals can barely compete with it, and only seven-star professionals can carry out a crusade. The strength should be between six and seven stars, and at most comparable to seven stars.
Therefore, if one could obtain the bloodline of the nightmare species, the potential of this bloodline would be able to support a hunter to cultivate to the seventh star.
Because the pinnacle of nightmare bloodline is equivalent to a seven-star professional, there is a saying that obtaining this bloodline is equivalent to obtaining a seven-star pass.
But even within the same star rating, the gap can sometimes be huge.
For example, Su Ming, who is also a four-star professional like him, can he be compared with him?
Even if we don't take into account the abilities of dual-professionals, and only look at the abilities of single-professionals, Su Ming is definitely much stronger than professionals of the same star level.
By the same token, among the five-star professionals, there are those who have just entered this star level, and there are also those like Mo Leng who are only one step away from six stars. Although the gap between the two cannot be said to be huge, it cannot be said to be small either.
A dangerous species is at most comparable to a five-star professional. If it were to face a top five-star professional like Mo Leng, it would most likely be no match for him.
Unless this dangerous species evolved and failed, thus becoming a mutant second only to the nightmare species.
A dangerous mutant is much stronger than a five-star professional, and is even comparable to a six-star professional. Only the top six-star professionals like the "Ten Demons" can surpass them.
Under such circumstances, Xiao Haier actually gave Su Ming a greater sense of threat than Mo Leng, the five-star top hunter. How could he not be confused?
Could it be that Xiao Haier failed in her evolution, and only survived by chance without exploding, becoming a dangerous mutant, and because of the evolution, the potential of her bloodline was fully stimulated, so she possessed the full strength of a dangerous mutant?
Su Ming had to think so.
But Xiao Hai'er doesn't look like he has failed in evolution at all.
Whether it was the reaction of her own blood, the reaction of the gathered phantom demons, or even Xiao Haier herself nodded in agreement, that meant her evolution was successful, right? "The evolution was successful, but the potential of her blood was also awakened. Although it has not yet reached the strength of a true nightmare species, is the power comparable to that of the mother body still being stimulated?"
In the end, Su Ming could only come to this conclusion.
In other words, Xiao Haier not only evolved successfully, but also possessed power comparable to that of a dangerous mutant, thus making a rapid ascent from a level only slightly stronger than a three-star professional to the realm of a superior phantom demon, becoming stronger than a five-star professional, and even comparable to a six-star professional.
This was a huge growth that was like a complete transformation, and even Su Ming was stunned by the improvement.
Originally, Su Ming thought that his speed and extent of improvement were already outrageous enough, but he never expected that now there seemed to be an even more outrageous person.
Moreover, looking at Xiao Hai'er's current appearance, she seems to have begun to leave the juvenile stage and gradually enter adulthood.
Once Xiao Haier grows up completely and develops from a juvenile to a complete form, the power of the nightmare seed in her body will be stimulated.
By then, Xiao Haier would be a genuine nightmare species, an existence comparable to the peak of human beings.
“It’s a blessing in disguise.”
Su Ming finally accepted it and started to laugh foolishly.
After surviving this sudden evolution and turning the crisis of explosion into opportunity, Xiao Haier's combat power has become fully mature, and he even has an unlimited future.
"It's not in vain that I spent so much precious red ruby on you, little girl."
Su Ming touched the mermaid girl's head very naturally.
It’s true that the wavy aqua blue waist-length hair is really soft and silky, and feels great, giving people the feeling of touching fine silk.
"Mimimimim!"
The mermaid girl rubbed Su Ming's big hand without resistance, showing an extraordinary sense of closeness, without any of the timidity and shyness of the past.
Perhaps, growth in this area is also one of the gains of Xiao Haier's trip.
I just don't know if this phantom demon girl will listen to me now that the [Demon Binding] spell has become ineffective.
Without a spell like [Demon Binding] to control it, no matter who it is, no one would feel safe with a powerful phantom demon around.
This is even more so for Su Ming, who is a cautious person who occasionally lets his wild imagination run wild. Now the phantom demon that he has cultivated as his combat force suddenly becomes strong enough to threaten him and breaks free from its original restraints. Logically speaking, with Su Ming's character, he should be on guard and take some coping measures.
For example, use the [Demon Binding] spell on Xiao Haier again to capture her again.
Under normal circumstances, Su Ming would definitely do this.
Not for anything else, just to make myself feel at ease.
But for some reason, the mysterious feeling in his heart, as if he was connected with Xiao Hai'er by blood, made Su Ming seem to have completely let down his guard against Xiao Hai'er. After thinking about it, he finally gave up on doing so.
Su Ming's intuition told him that he no longer needed to do this.
There seemed to be a closer connection between him and Xiao Haier than before.
That kind of connection is definitely not comparable to the forced slavery effect of [Demon Binding].
Su Ming struggled for a long time, and finally decided to believe in this mysterious feeling and not use the [Demon Binding] technique on Xiao Haier.
He would never admit that he couldn't bear to do that because of Xiao Hai'er's innocent and beautiful smile!
He would also never admit that the little girl rubbed against him in his arms and made him so happy that he would be so soft-hearted that he couldn't make up his mind!

No matter whether others believe it or not, he believes it himself!
"Okay, little girl, get up quickly."
Su Ming patted Xiao Hai'er's soft back and said something.
"Senior is still cleaning up the house. I don't know how she is doing now. Let's go to her place quickly."
Hearing this, Xiao Haier nodded repeatedly.
"Mi Ling!"
The girl's moaning voice was still as sweet as the sound of nature, dispelling the hostility from the battlefield.
"Mi Ling!"
In the sky, the mermaid girl swung her tail, creating waves as if she was swimming in the sea, and she swept towards the mountains and forests with ripples all the way.
Su Ming was also flying, but unlike Xiao Hai'er who was swimming easily all the way, he couldn't fly and could only rely on leaping to travel. Sometimes he landed on the crown of a big tree, sometimes he landed between the hills. He looked very cool, but compared with Xiao Hai'er, for some reason, he actually looked a little sad.
“There is no one else.”
Su Ming was in mixed emotions, and for a moment he even had the urge to transform into a demon.
After entering the demon state, Su Ming will grow wings and have the ability to fly.
But Su Ming thought he was not so showy as to use the demonization technology which consumed so much energy and still had some unresolved problems just for the sake of being free and unrestrained.
What made Su Ming feel even more complicated was that he was actually unable to keep up with Xiao Haier's speed.
The speed displayed by Xiao Haier was a world apart from that in the past. Ordinary people could only see a wave of water passing through the sky like a meteor and could not even catch sight of Xiao Haier's beautiful figure.
This shows how fast Xiao Haier is at this moment.
"No way. Speed is never my strong point."
Su Ming could only comfort himself this way.
Compared with his extraordinary strength, Su Ming's speed is indeed only at the level of an ordinary four-star hunter. He is incomparable to Xiao Haier, who can now compete with six-star professionals.
Su Ming gave up the idea of competing with Xiao Haier in speed, and directly took out the Longdan motorcycle from his backpack, sat on his own mount, started the engine, and started speeding again.
Thanks to this, Su Ming was not thrown away by Xiao Haier.
Xiao Haier, on the other hand, stopped in mid-air several times, as if she was worried that Su Ming could not keep up, making Su Ming wonder whether he should be grateful for her thoughtfulness.
In this way, the two of them flew all the way, shuttling through the mountains and forests at high speed.
Su Ming could roughly sense that there was a battle going on in this direction, so he was sure that Xu Qianqian should be in this area.
After entering this area, the traces of battle that appeared along the way also confirmed that Su Ming's judgment was correct.
However, the battle ended suddenly at some point.
"Has the winner been decided?"
Such a thought flashed through Su Ming's mind, and then he accelerated again and rushed towards the direction where Xu Qianqian was with Xiao Haier.
Before long, the scenery ahead suddenly became clear.
A figure appeared in Su Ming's field of vision, causing him to stop.
