If Hu Tangdi and Huang Ying were to describe Shang Lin's current state accurately, they really wouldn't be able to. They just felt that something was wrong with him, and wondered if they should ask the Divine Lord for help.
After the meal, Shang Lin went to class as if nothing had happened. Hu Tangdi and Huang Ying immediately returned to the Dragon Spirit Tower. The sect leader's behavior was somewhat... frightening.
As soon as Hu Tangdi and Huang Ying entered the Dragon Spirit Tower, they went straight to the Divine Lord and told him about Shang Lin's situation. After finishing, they asked with great concern, "What should we do now?"
The deity looked helplessly at Hu Tangdi and Huang Ying. “What can we do? Just let it be. Shang Lin is grieving over Old Man Chai’s death, but he is a strong man at heart. Of course, his behavior will be different from that of ordinary people. Besides, he is injured and reviewing the Demon-Trapping Formation. It’s not surprising. You just need to take good care of him.”
Huang Ying was a little incredulous, "That's it?!"
The deity nodded. "That's right. Shang Lin is very strong, so you don't need to worry. However, he should still feel guilty and remorseful, after all, Old Man Chai is dead."
Hu Tangdi was very puzzled. "But this matter cannot be blamed on the sect leader. It was the people from Feixian Palace who lacked martial ethics and started killing as soon as they arrived."
"Even so, Shang Lin still feels guilty and ashamed because of this. After all, with his strength in his previous life, what were those people from the Flying Immortal Palace?" The Divine Lord suddenly sighed. "The sense of disparity is too great, and it's hard to accept it all at once."
Huang Ying asked, equally puzzled, "But the sect leader has been in the human realm for over five years. Can't you accept this sense of disparity?"
“If it doesn’t involve human life, Shang Lin can naturally accept it. But the human life in question is that of Old Man Chai, who took care of him wholeheartedly when he was at his most vulnerable. Besides, human emotions are very complex and cannot be fully understood by us demon cultivators. In short, you just need to take good care of him.”
She Jinxing, who had reverted to his original form, slowly transformed back into human form. Compared to when he transformed into human form yesterday, he still retained some demonic characteristics, which had disappeared today. However, his complexion was much paler than Shang Lin's.
However, She Jinxing said as if nothing had happened, "You all go about your business, I will take good care of the sect leader."
Hu Tangdi hurriedly said, "Look at how weak you are now, how can you take care of the sect leader? Just focus on recovering. Huang Ying and I will take good care of the sect leader, don't worry."
She Jinxing said to Hu Tangdi, "The studio needs to be renovated, and Chi Xie is still in the hospital. If you don't keep an eye on things, who will? I'm fine. I'm just cooking for the sect leader."
Huang Ying hurriedly said, "I can cook, why do you, an injured person, have to do it?"
"You don't understand. The sect leader is a man after all. He can talk to me about anything without any problem. It's different with you guys. He's in a bad mood right now. I need to be by his side so he can relax a bit. Otherwise, what if he develops inner demons from all the stress?"
The deity was taken aback, then raised both hands in agreement, “What the little snake said makes sense. It’s unlikely that Shang Lin, at his age, wouldn’t have some inner demons. It’s just that he was outstanding in every aspect in his past life, so even if he had inner demons, he would have been able to overcome them. But things are different now, so we should be more careful. Let’s divide the work: Huang Ying will cook, and the little snake will keep him company. Xiao Hu and Xing Tian will be busy with things outside, and I will take care of the cubs and the wounded in the tower.”
Hu Tangdi asked instinctively, "Has the almanac not woken up yet?"
