"What's wrong? What do you want to say?" Wan Ge's voice was very soft and gentle.
After hesitating for a moment, she finally spoke: "Why did you save me?"
Yes, she was saving him; her actions were undoubtedly saving him.
He's only half-demon, and even the lowest-grade medicines look down on him. Why would a powerful demon like her help him?
Wan Ge leaned down and pinched the boy's cheek, looking at his delicate face as she slowly said, "Does it count because you're good-looking?"
Cang Mu hadn't expected this reason. Was he good-looking? He had serious doubts about that.
Because when she saw him yesterday, he was filthy and not nearly as clean as he is now, so there was no reason for her to think he was good-looking. Besides, what could she possibly see in him now?
If this were the human world, he might still suspect that the other person was helping him out of pity and sympathy, seeing his miserable state.
But this is the demon realm, where compassion and kindness are nonexistent. The demon realm has always been a place where the strong prey on the weak, and only the mighty survive.
The Demon King is the supreme ruler of the demon realm, the most powerful demon in the entire demon realm. However, he is a half-demon by blood, which means he is not accepted by the human realm and is also looked down upon by the demon realm.
Because of their impure bloodline, half-demons face extremely difficult cultivation, even more so than the lowest grade of medicine. Even if they possess bloodlines that are not those of ordinary medicine, as long as they are half-demons, cultivation will be extremely difficult.
Cang Mu knew that Wange hadn't told him the truth, but he didn't ask any more questions. In any case, at least he was alive, and that was good enough.
…
With Wan Ge's help, Cang Mu's cultivation became increasingly smooth. In addition to the demon fruit, he also had some pills and the like. In less than a year, his strength surpassed that of ordinary demons, and at the same time, he grew exceptionally fast.
She used to look thin and frail, but now she has grown much taller and doesn't look so thin anymore.
Cang Mu felt her own power and was particularly surprised, because it had only been a year, just a year! She had brought her to this point.
Cang Mu really couldn't imagine how amazing he would have been if he had been by her side from the very beginning.
Based on his original cultivation level, he couldn't even imagine his current power.
Wan Ge could sense his joy, so she patted his head and asked softly as if it were an unintentional question, "Amu, has anyone taught you cultivation before?"
Cang Mu lowered his head, his voice weak, and softly replied, "I once had a half-demon friend who taught me cultivation, otherwise I might have been even weaker... But... once when he went out, he accidentally provoked a very powerful demon and was killed on the spot."
He was instantly killed; his opponent only needed one move, and his friend lay in a pool of blood, never to rise again.
Wan Ge frowned slightly, but quickly relaxed. Perhaps the other party really didn't mean it and just wanted to help him with his cultivation.
"What's wrong?"
Wan Ge shook her head: "It's nothing. Today is a festival. Do you want to go to the Demon Market?"
Besides the Demon Capital, the demon race also has other towns, which, although not as bustling as the Demon Capital, are still extremely lively.
Cang Mu never dared to go to places with many demons. Half-demons like him were not tolerated, and if he dared to appear in front of them, he would probably die long ago.
