Chapter 066 Demon Lord 2
Xiao Yan was dressed in white and stood on the snow-capped peak, his already bloodless face looking even paler and weaker.
A cold wind blew, ruffling his robes and making a chilling sound, making him look incredibly thin.
When Qin Feng sensed Xiao Yan's breath and followed him, he saw this scene.
In the distance, the peaks of the snow-capped mountains are connected together, emitting a dazzling golden light under the sunlight.
A man stood, sword in hand, his robes fluttering in the wind. A thousand-foot cliff loomed before him. A chill wind blew past, making one wonder if he might fall.
Qin Feng's heart subconsciously tightened, but then he quickly realized that although this man was nearing the end of his life, he was still a cultivator after all. How could he be as weak as a mortal?
At this moment, Xiao Yan was muttering to the system, "Why hasn't he come yet? I'm freezing to death. It's really not easy to express the pale and powerless beauty without using spiritual energy to protect my body."
"I don't know how the masters of modern novels maintain such integrity and insist on pretending to be so cool..."
system:"……"
"Host, you can actually circulate your spiritual power secretly..."
Xiao Yan decisively rejected the system's proposal, "No, you don't understand!"
"Although people can deceive others, all things cannot. If I secretly channel my spiritual power, the snow around me will melt into slush. Then my white clothes and boots will be stained with dirty water and mud. How can I maintain this poignant and beautiful scene?"
system:"……"
Unconsciously clear.
Fortunately, Qin Feng came over quickly. He flew into the air and landed behind Xiao Yan.
"you……"
Xiao Yan interrupted him, "Sh ...
"Look."
Qin Feng followed his gaze and looked into the distance. That was the highest snow-capped mountain within his sight.
"What did you see?"
Qin Feng didn't want to talk to Xiao Yan about this inexplicable thing. He just wanted to ask Xiao Yan why he accepted him as a disciple, why he gave him the Dao Bone in exchange, and why he did all this...
"you……"
"Close your eyes, look at the world with your heart, tell me how you feel, and I will give you all the answers you want to know."
Qin Feng's heart was slightly lifted.
Was it the answer to everything he wanted to know? Was it about the questions he wanted to know, or was it that Xiao Yan had already discovered that he was half-demon and wanted to use this to tell him that the world was still beautiful and that he shouldn't worry about being half-demon?
Qin Feng felt a little sarcastic in his heart, but he closed his eyes as he was told.
The cold wind was blowing, making a whistling sound, and the mountains and rivers were silent. Through his five senses and spiritual consciousness, Qin Feng "saw" the five elements of spiritual energy like lively points of light, jumping up and down.
Plants and trees represent the spiritual energy of wood, and the earth represents the spiritual energy of soil. Where there may be gold mines, the spiritual energy of gold is especially abundant, and it will accumulate over time.
"Host, do you want to tell Qin Feng about your past life?"
Xiao Yan replied in surprise, "Tell him? How is that possible? If I tell him, wouldn't that be equivalent to reducing my leverage?"
"Host, are you deceiving him?"
Xiao Yan said confidently: "How can the matter of persuasion be called deception?"
"Let's not talk about the process, let's just talk about the results. Could you please tell me whether the target of the previous world mission has been influenced?"
system:"……"
"I think so."
Xiao Yan was heartbroken: "What do you mean by 'seemingly'? It is indeed the case!"
"I've been waiting for the good old days to pass by. What's the purpose of coming into this world? Isn't it to influence and save these lost lambs? Otherwise, what am I trying to achieve?"
The system, unaware that Xiao Yan was seeking a breakthrough opportunity, suddenly realized it and swam out one heart after another, "Host, you are so kind!"
The kind-hearted Xiao Yan looked at Qin Feng and asked, "What did you see?"
His words were like calming down all the agitation, his warm hands, calm and steady, had the effect of soothing all the pain.
Qin Feng was thinking about how to answer.
That he sensed the spiritual energy of the five elements?
No, since Xiao Yan asked him this question, there must be some hidden meaning!
Could it be that he wanted to tell him that the world was at his feet, and all difficulties were only temporary. As long as he could overcome the difficulties, he would be able to face them head-on?
Ha, what a ridiculous moralizing statement!
Dilemma, his dilemma is the prejudice of the world and the countless malice from other people's hearts. Is it really so easy to clear it away?
Qin Feng opened his eyes, his expression cold and uncooperative. "I didn't see anything."
He thought that his answer would anger Xiao Yan. It would be best to let Xiao Yan know that his so-called kindness was given to an ungrateful and undeserving person, or even the enemy of the world. Would Xiao Yan regret it then?
Unexpectedly, Xiao Yan looked at him in surprise and asked a completely irrelevant question.
"Your cultivation has reached the third level of Qi Refining now, right?"
Although this was a question, the tone was full of affirmation, as if he was simply stating something. After all, even if Xiao Yan's cultivation had regressed, he was still far above Qin Feng, so he could naturally see Qin Feng's cultivation.
Qin Feng was silent for a few breaths, and finally said: "Yes."
Before his bones were replaced, he had been stuck in the late second stage of Qi Refining and had difficulty breaking through. However, after his bones were replaced, all the impurities in his body and various previous factors had dissipated, and he quickly rose to the early third stage of Qi Refining.
Xiao Yan nodded. "That's right. Logically, you should be able to sense the five elements of spiritual energy. How come you can't even sense the five elements of spiritual energy? Is there something wrong with your body..."
Qin Feng, who had already sensed it but had no intention of cooperating, said: "..."
So, the reason he was asked to close his eyes and sense for such a long time was not because there was any hidden meaning, but because they wanted to use this to check if there was anything wrong with his body???
Qin Feng tried to take a deep breath, still feeling a little angry and embarrassed at being teased.
He said coldly, "Of course I have no problem, but I won't be grateful to you for what you've done! Everything you've done is completely in vain!"
He wanted to know now, after this person found out that the person he saved was not a human, would he feel regretful, disappointed, or would he plan to clean up the mess and punish him?
Xiao Yan looked at him in even greater surprise, "Why do you think so?"
He looked Qin Feng up and down, his eyes critical: "In terms of qualifications, you are far inferior to me; in terms of talent, you are far inferior to me; in terms of talent, you are far inferior to me; in terms of status and reputation, you are just a little disciple who is bullied."
"Tell me, how can you compare to me? Or, is there something in you that is so worth my time that I need to make such a great sacrifice in exchange for your reward?"
Qin Feng: “…”
So, this person is really just doing this for that ridiculous kindness?
Also, this guy has such a vicious mouth, why hasn’t he been beaten to death yet?
Who on earth said that Xiao Yan was a gentleman of integrity and gentleness? Whose gentleman is so vicious and always rubs salt into other people's wounds?
Since there is no expectation of return, then if he shows such ridiculous kindness to others even though he knows that he is not a good person, will he regret it?
Qin Feng was full of malice, "Do you know who I am? Aren't you afraid that by doing so much, you are aiding and abetting the evil?"
Xiao Yan glanced at him indifferently, and calmly set up a protective formation to block out the sound.
"Fire Phoenix bloodline is indeed rare."
When saying this, Xiao Yan looked calm, as if he had just drunk a glass of water, but it made Qin Feng's pupils shrink.
He actually knew that he had the Fire Phoenix bloodline!!!
The Phoenix and the Dragon Clan were the leaders of the demon clan, but in the great war between gods and demons hundreds of millions of years ago, these two races disappeared without a trace.
Some say that the Phoenix and the Dragon are hiding in a small realm in a corner of the world; some say that the two races have perished as punishment from heaven; others say that after the great war between gods and demons, the two races broke through the sky and went to another world.
Regardless of which one it is, the pure bloodline of the Phoenix and Dragon clan can no longer be seen today. What can be seen is only the thin bloodline passed down from the transformation of a Jiao into a dragon, or from the marriage with the Phoenix clan.
The Fire Phoenix bloodline in Qin Feng's body comes from Yan Ji, the daughter of the previous demon clan leader, who is also Qin Feng's biological mother.
Yan Ji fell in love with a mortal and defected to the demon clan. Later, the demon clan purged both the human and the demon. Qin Feng escaped with Yan Ji's protection.
This is what Qin Feng found out after he escaped from the Demon Forbidden Tower. It is also the reason why Qin Feng did not go to the land of the demon clan, but became the Demon Lord.
He is not tolerated by the human race, and the demon race also sees him as someone to be eliminated as soon as possible. Only the blood sea of the demon race can accommodate him.
But now... Xiao Yan actually knew!
He knew that he had the blood of the Fire Phoenix, so why didn't he hate him like everyone else and kill him? Was it out of that ridiculous kindness?
How can there be such a person in this world???
No wonder he would say that he would tell Xiaoyao the answer he knew. As a descendant of the Fire Phoenix, this was already one of his biggest secrets. If he didn't even care about this secret, then he certainly wouldn't expect anything in return.
Qin Feng had a complicated expression. "Since you already know that I am a descendant of Yan Ji, then you should also know that I will leave here sooner or later."
"I know." Xiao Yan responded.
Qin Feng: “???”
He knew? If he knew, then why did he do this? He was aiding and abetting the evil! Wasn't he afraid that if he left here, he would become the greatest enemy of the human race?
Qin Feng wanted to shake Xiao Yan wildly, but he couldn't.
He looked at Xiao Yan deeply and said, "I will leave here immediately."
"As a reward for your efforts towards me, I promise you that from now on, as long as the human race does not provoke me, I will not take the initiative to deal with them."
This was his promise to Xiao Yan.
Qin Feng turned around and was about to leave, but heard Xiao Yan say, "Wait."
Qin Feng sneered in his heart, thinking that he really did want something from him, right? He said that there was no way in the world that there could be such a foolish and kind person, and it was all just an appearance!
However, he has to be disappointed. He has never been a good person. It is wishful thinking to expect anything in return from him!
Especially this ridiculous kindness that was imposed on him in the hope of asking for something in return!
He would never let anyone who had designs on him get what they wanted!
no way!
"Where are you going?"
Where was he going? Could it be that this person, despite all his nice words, was actually still worried about him? Worried that he might attack innocent people?
Haha, he really lives up to the reputation of being kind and benevolent as rumored!
Qin Feng thought with disdain, and said with a hint of sarcasm, "Humans and demons have different paths. I won't bother Elder Xiao with worrying about this."
"You don't think you can control me just because you're nice to me, do you? Let me tell you..."
Xiao Yan sighed and said, "I always want to know where you went, at least so that I can contact you easily, or give you an address."
He escaped from the storage ring thick stacks of papers that looked very familiar to Qin Feng.
"You know my life span is almost over, and I don't expect anything in return, but can you at least pay me back the spirit stones I used on you?"
"Oh, I forgot to tell you, those people know that I'm almost dead, so in order to get these, I've signed a debt agreement with them in your name..."
Qin Feng: “???”
Qin Feng: “!!!”
Suddenly, a huge amount of debt appeared? And it was in his name? How is this different from forcing someone to owe debt?
Logically speaking, he didn't ask him to do these things, so why should he owe him spirit stones in his name?!
How can there be such a person???
Qin Feng was very shocked.
Qin Feng couldn't believe it.
Qin Feng tried to understand this outrageous robbery behavior.
Qin Feng tried to understand failure.
Qin Feng...
Qin Feng looked at Xiao Yan angrily, "Why do you owe me spirit stones? We are not related at all, what right do you have to make a decision for me? You...blah blah..."
Xiao Yan was weak and frail, "Oh, I feel so dizzy. I suddenly can't hear what others are saying. I don't know if I'm going to die... It's fate, is today the day I die?"
Qin Feng: “???”
"Don't pretend! I'm telling you, don't think I'll be soft-hearted! For a hypocrite like you, I..."
"My heart aches. I can't breathe. My heart is beating so fast. I can't stand harsh words."
Qin Feng: “???”
Qin Feng's expression fell apart. It turned out that Xiao Yan was such a shameless person! It would be better for him not to show up like in his previous life! He would rather suffer criticism and false accusations from others and be imprisoned in the Forbidden Demon Tower than owe so many spirit stones!
How could he have so many spirit stones? Where would he return them?
The once powerful Demon Lord Qin Feng now doesn't even have a low-grade spirit stone on him.
He also planned to leave here, return to the demon clan, and then climb to the position of demon lord...
Now, looking at the thick stack of debt papers in his arms, Qin Feng's eyes went dark.
He was completely devastated. "Explain clearly! These spirit stones..."
Xiao Yan was about to fall and fell squarely onto Qin Feng.
Qin Feng: “…”
Qin Feng looked at Xiao Yan, whose eyes were closed and brows were slightly furrowed, and he suspected in his heart that he was pretending to be unconscious!
He tentatively waved his hand in front of him, but the other party did not move.
Qin Feng's gaze lingered on Xiao Yan's dantian.
As long as he could penetrate this place and kill the Nascent Soul inside, he wouldn't have to face any sky-high debts and could also avenge himself for being teased.
What does this person's life or death have to do with him? He is not a good person!
He wants to make him regret it!
On the other side, another voice told him——
You can't do this. Even though he forced you, the final result is also beneficial to you. What's the difference between you and those people you have killed?
Qin Feng was torn between his conscience and his desires. Suddenly, an icicle fell from somewhere, and the sound it made woke Qin Feng up. At this time, his hand had already stopped above his dantian.
He had a blank expression on his face and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.
After a long time, Qin Feng withdrew his hand, picked up the man with an expressionless face, and flew down the mountain.
Xiao Yan was heartbroken. He pointed and said, "Evil disciple, evil disciple! He actually carried his master, who was wholeheartedly doing good for him, like a chicken! It's unfortunate for our sect, it's unfortunate for our sect!"
system:"……"
The system's voice sounded faintly, "So, host, what you mean by reform is to shamelessly force Qin Feng to bear the debt?"
Xiao Yan said confidently: "Why not? Just tell me whether it works or not?"
"It does work, but I think Qin Feng wants to kill you more. Just now, he almost killed you! Is this any different from walking a tightrope on a cliff? Be careful not to play with fire, host!"
Xiao Yan didn't care. "He wouldn't. I've reviewed the message you sent me. If he really was the kind of person who killed people indiscriminately, he wouldn't have secretly helped the boss and the others just because they showed him some kindness in his past life..."
"It shows that he still has a conscience!"
system:"……"
"So you took advantage of his still-standing conscience and put him in debt?"
Xiao Yan was furious at Qin Feng's lack of resistance and said, "You're still too pedantic and inflexible. Talking to someone like Qin Feng about the truth, goodness, and beauty of the world won't change him at all. Ever since he was old enough to understand things, he's been exposed to countless malicious acts around him. So, he doesn't believe others have good intentions towards him. Even if you sincerely give to him, he'll think you have ulterior motives."
"You can't use ordinary methods on a person like him. You have to make him feel conflicted, doubting you while also trusting you. Only after all these attempts will he truly trust you."
Xiao Yan sighed hypocritically: "This is the so-called theory that things that are easy to get are not rare. He really has an awkward personality!"
system:"……"
I think you are the real shameless person!
The system grumbled inwardly, but didn't speak aloud. It finally understood that its current host wasn't as kind as it had imagined.
The reason why these complicated methods weren't used in the first two missions was probably because, as the host said, they weren't needed, so they weren't revealed.
It was truly deceived by the first two worlds! How could it believe its host was a kind person???
Xiao Yan didn't know what the system was thinking, and it wouldn't matter even if he knew, after all, they were now in a relationship of interest.
He is indeed not a good person in the traditional sense, or in other words, how could a person without some means become a god so easily?
Because they will all become workers enslaved by the evil capitalists!
Don’t you see that above the Nine Heavens, most of the people are still workers?
As long as there's competition and interests, class will always exist. Only by constantly climbing up can one secure a place at the top. This has been the dictate of interests since ancient times, and even for a deity, it's no exception.
