Chapter 723 She Has No Regrets
Jiang Xuxu has always known that Wenren Qiqi is a demon.
But she has never asked what kind of demon she is.
Her originally black hair was dyed white, and soft white fox ears appeared on the top of her head, followed by a fluffy and beautiful fox tail.
The tail exploded from behind her, and then the second one, the third one...
Jiang Xuxu was stunned for only a moment, and then reacted quickly, rushed forward, and supported Wenren Qiqi, who was staggering because of the loss of demon power.
Hu Lizhi retracted his hand at the same time.
Hua Sui almost immediately flashed forward, raised his foot, and kicked Hu Lizhi fiercely.
"Don't hurt her!"
Wenren Qiqi struggled and shouted, but it was too late.
Hu Lizhi was kicked hard and flew away. Although she was protected by the spiritual pattern, she couldn't help but bleed from the corner of her mouth.
Jiang Xuxu held Wenren Qiqi in her arms and looked at Hu Lizhi coldly, but she didn't let Hua Sui take action again.
"Hu Lizhi, give me an explanation."
Her voice was unprecedentedly cold. Because she believed that she could see "colors" that others could not see, Jiang Xuxu had long been accustomed to judging a person by his or her color.
The color of Hu Lizhi's spiritual energy was very clean.
This was also the reason why she had never doubted the other party.
But this time, she seemed to have seen it wrong.
Hu Lizhi struggled to sit up, but there was no anger on her face for being kicked down. She only looked at Jiang Xuxu, and after a long while, she lowered her eyes slightly.
"Mr. Wen said that only in this way...Wen Renqiqi can leave the other world smoothly."
Wen Renqiqi closed her eyes, her white eyelashes trembling slightly, and thought to herself,
as expected.
Jiang Xuxu was stunned, looked at Hu Lizhi, and then subconsciously looked at her mother in her arms. Seeing her face gloomy, she knew in her heart that what Hu Lizhi said was probably true.
"What did she mean? You said before that you might not be able to go back because of the ties in the other world. Could it be... there are other reasons?"
Wen Renqiqi met Jiang Xuxu's gaze and couldn't help but lower her eyes slightly.
After calming down, she struggled out of Xuxu's arms and explained to her softly,
"I really...can't leave the alien world."
It's not that I don't want to leave, but that I can't leave.
"Back then, I fell into the other world alone, and those guys from Guiwu chased me relentlessly, wanting to take the opportunity to kill me in the other world."
"I couldn't use the mysterious arts, and my demonic power was suppressed, so I was no match for them. I could only run away. Later... by chance, I got a force of heaven."
Wenren Qiqi said this with a bitter smile on his face.
"I later learned that the force of heaven was used by the other world's heaven to suppress the disasters of this world, but I had no choice at the time...
So, I absorbed that force of heaven, and as a substitute, I became a talisman used by heaven to suppress disasters."
The spiritual energy of the other world had long been exhausted. The rapid development of the times had resulted in the disappearance of gods and the spiritual energy of the world, along with the backlash of mountains, rivers, lakes and seas.
As a result, there were natural disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis, and the disappearance of glaciers.
In order to prevent the alien world from going to destruction, the Heavenly Dao used the power of Heavenly Dao to suppress the disasters.
Unfortunately, this power of Heavenly Dao was stolen by a half-demon.
Wenren Qiqi, who became a suppressant, although gained the freedom to exercise her demonic power, was destined to be unable to leave.
Because once she left, the unsuppressed disasters would sweep across this alien world.
Although this alien world and the original world belong to two unconnected parallel time and space, in essence, they are all living people.
Wenren Qiqi could not abandon the alien world for her own sake.
So from the beginning, she had no intention of going back.
Even though she had occupied Hu Lizhi's body for two years as a soul, she had never thought of meeting Xuxu or any other member of the Jiang family.
Because she knew she couldn't go back.
She just didn't expect Xuxu to enter another world for her.
When she heard her repeatedly say that she wanted to take her back with her, she was really moved and thought about telling her the truth.
But in the end, she chose to keep it secret for the time being. She
didn't want to disappoint Xuxu again.
At least before going back, she wanted Xuxu to have the few memories of her mother without any distress or sorrow.
The only thing Wenren Qiqi didn't expect was Hu Lizhi.
"Hu Lizhi is just the most insignificant half-demon in the fox clan. It is because she is a half-demon that is compatible with my soul and body that I chose her to temporarily possess my body."
Wenren Qiqi said this, looking at Hu Lizhi opposite, with a trace of sadness in her eyes,
"But I never thought that I would hurt her because of this."
At that time, only Wenren Jiuyue noticed that she used Hu Lizhi to possess her body.
Only Wenren Jiuyue knew that she could not leave as a troll from another world.
Only Wenren Jiuyue could use Hu Lizhi's body to lay down the spiritual patterns unique to the demon clan.
"He asked you to absorb all my demon power, together with the power of the heaven in my body, in order to let you replace me as a troll from another world!"
In this way, although she lost her demon power, she could return to her original world.
But as a replacement, Hu Lizhi can only replace her and stay in the other world forever!
Jiang Xuxu was shocked and turned to look at Hu Lizhi, and saw her lower her head,
"I... know. But it doesn't matter..."
Hu Lizhi whispered,
"I am not important at all."
From childhood to adulthood, she has been the most inconspicuous fox in the tribe.
Because she is a half-demon, any little fox in the tribe can bully her.
She doesn't have a strong personality, and she always thinks that her fox life will probably be like this.
Until one day, she woke up from her sleep, and it was already two years later.
Mr. Wen, the most distinguished fox, came to see her and said that her body had been borrowed for two years. As compensation, he allowed her to enter the Monster Management Bureau as a half-demon.
From that day on, she received unprecedented respect.
The tribesmen who had bullied her began to speak softly to her. Her father, who had treated her as a transparent person, also began to care for her and admonish her.
Her human mother was also proud of her.
Those were the best days since Hu Lizhi was born.
She did not regret that her body was borrowed. On the contrary, she was very grateful to the fellow tribesman who borrowed her body. Because of gratitude, she tried to understand the other party.
Then, she saw Wen Renqiqi, who had similar experiences with her but walked out of a completely different fox life.
As a half-demon, Wenren Qiqi had a more difficult situation in the tribe since she was a child, because she had an absolutely strong and excellent brother.
But she never accepted her fate.
When faced with bullying, she would fight back even if her head was broken and bloody.
Knowing that she was weak and could not fight, she decisively left and entered the Taoist Academy organized by human Xuanshi as a half-demon, becoming the first Xuanshi born as a half-demon.
Later, she became a lecturer at the Taoist Academy and gained a place among human Xuanshi.
Although the demon tribe regarded her as a shame and did not allow people to mention her casually, no demon dared to take the initiative to provoke and humiliate her.
Not only that, in the face of the demon tribe's recall, she turned a blind eye and disappeared directly. There was no news of her for many years.
For the first time, Hu Lizhi felt the power from a fellow.
Even though she knew she couldn't be as strong as him, Wenren Qiqi was her idol.
"Mr. Wen... didn't force me, I did it voluntarily."
Hu Lizhi looked at Wenren Qiqi, tears in her eyes and a smile on her face,
"I'm very happy to know that I can stay here in your place."
Although she was very weak, she had a chance to become a shining half-demon like Senior Qiqi...
She didn't regret it.
