Huai Ye sat casually at the stern of the boat, a gentle breeze ruffling his emerald green hair.
The wooden crown that held her hair up, though made of an unknown material, emitted a faint fragrance.
He held a wine pot in one hand and played with a jade lion in the other, watching them with a leisurely air.
"Haha, humans are really interesting."
He watched with a pleased expression as the six people stared in shock and disbelief.
The Demon King was very happy.
"Don't make that face. I'm not the kind of demon with blood on my hands, and I don't really like eating people."
He had a smile on his face and seemed very approachable.
But what does "not really like eating people" mean? It means they do eat people!
A-Jiang swallowed hard and asked with difficulty, "May I ask what business this Demon King has with us?"
"You're a pretty good kid. Do you have a contracted spirit beast?"
His attitude was as kind as that of an elder in the family.
Ajahn nodded.
"Oh, bring it out so I can see it."
He seemed very interested.
"I...I left it at home."
Ah Jiang has a slight stutter, and for some reason, I don't want to show it to him.
The man nodded as if he believed him and said, "Then I'll go home with you and take a look."
A-Jiang stared wide-eyed at the demon, a demon king in the transformation stage, who was going to her house?
Her jaw nearly dropped.
"You don't want to?" he said, looking distressed.
How could A-Jiang dare to refuse?
"I dare not, I am unwilling," A-Jiang said.
"That's good, let's decide on that."
The demon king then asked, "Does anyone else have a spirit beast?"
Everyone else shook their heads like rattles. With the demon king threatening to follow them home at the slightest disagreement, who would dare to have a spirit beast? Even if they did, they wouldn't dare to say it!
The man sighed and said, "I thought you human cultivators really enjoyed raising spirit beasts."
He didn't know why he was so troubled by this matter, but no one dared to ask him. Even A-Jiang was very nervous in this situation.
Seeing that everyone around him was timid and afraid to speak, he also felt bored.
Then he turned and leaped, his whole body like a brightly colored bird, falling into the air, and soon disappeared from everyone's sight without a trace.
The six people looked at each other, still shaken, and looked at A-Jiang with great sympathy.
Ah Jiang had no way to express her bitterness and could only swallow it down silently.
Everyone returned to the deacon's hall as if they had lost their souls, hastily handed in their tasks, and then went back to their courtyards to rest.
As A-Jiang walked, he pondered, "I am a descendant of Bai Ze, and I have the original power left by it. Logically speaking, Bai Ze is also a demon. Although it has been disliked for tens of thousands of years, it still has the status of a divine beast. It shouldn't be in a state of being hated by everyone now, right?"
A-Jiang wasn't actually sure; she felt that she had a natural affinity for spirit beasts in her bloodline.
When I was studying at the Taoist academy, I chose to focus on mastering the Beast Taming course among so many other courses.
Later, not only did he get a spirit beast, but Little Fatty's spirit beast was also quite good.
Later, after learning about her background, she also thought about this matter.
"The tree spirit is paying attention to me, probably because of my bloodline. He may not be sure of my origins yet. Truly powerful descendants of Bai Ze have not appeared for thousands of years."
After thinking about these things, A-Jiang recovered from his earlier emotions.
"I should be considered to have an advantage."
But when she pushed open the gate to her own courtyard, she stopped in her tracks in astonishment.
"What are you standing there for? Come on in!"
Inside, a handsome young man with elegant clothes and green hair smiled and said.
Ah Jiang took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and then stepped into the courtyard, gently closing the gate behind him.
