Chapter 729: One-quarter of the demon race bloodline
Jiang Xuxu certainly noticed Jiang Huai beside her, but she refused to admit that she was biased.
She could only blame Chu Beihe for the golden light on his body that was too eye-catching.
She calmly called him,
"Brother."
Then she asked him,
"Why are you here too? Have you seen mom?"
Although Jiang Xuxu fell asleep quickly after returning from the other world, she still noticed that Jiang Huai and Jiang Yucheng were there before she fell asleep.
Jiang Huai heard her talk about her mother very naturally, and knew that she should have no barriers to her mother, so he smiled and said,
"I saw her. She is with the villagers."
After a pause, he added, "Dad is with her."
To be precise, during the day when Jiang Xuxu was asleep, Jiang Yucheng had never been separated from Wenren Qiqi.
Almost wherever she went, he followed.
Even in the middle of the night, Jiang Yucheng would suddenly wake up, make sure his wife was still lying beside him, and then hold her hand and go back to sleep.
To be frank, Jiang Huai hadn't seen his father so lively for a long time.
Although his face was always calm, as a son, he could still feel the surging but restrained attachment in his heart.
Because, he was the same.
The two were talking here, and Wenren Qiqi and Jiang Yucheng came to the room as soon as they sensed Xuxu waking up.
She touched Xuxu's forehead, feeling the demonic power that had quickly settled in her body, and couldn't help but feel a little surprised in her heart.
But thinking about it again, it was understandable that Chu Beihe was always with her.
For Jiang Huai and Jiang Yucheng, what shocked them more than the fact that their wives/mothers were half-demons was that Xuxu also inherited a quarter of the demon bloodline and had already awakened.
"When I married Yucheng, I deliberately used magic to seal the demon power. In addition, the child born from the union of a half-demon and a human has only a 1/2 chance of inheriting the demon bloodline..."
Wenren Qiqi explained this to Xuxu as well as to Jiang Huai and Jiang Yucheng,
"At that time, because Jiang Huai was born a complete human, I thought you would be..."
But when the people from the Ghost Mist Organization came to her, she knew that Xuxu and Jiang Huai were different.
Jiang Huai didn't have much feeling about being a human, neither happy nor disappointed.
If he had to say something regretful, it would probably be that if he could inherit the blood of the demon clan like Xuxu, maybe he could protect her like Xuxu protected them.
Jiang Xuxu vaguely knew that he might be like his mother after awakening his demon power, so it was not surprising at this moment. He asked about Hu Lizhi again,
"Hu Lizhi, you will never come back in the future?"
Speaking of her, Wenren Qiqi's face was rarely silent.
Although she was forced to flee by the heaven of the other world at that time, Hu Lizhi did stay in the other world in her place.
She owed her twice.
Moreover, there might never be a chance to pay her back.
Jiang Xuxu said, "We owed her."
It's not just Wenren Qiqi, but the four members of the Jiang family's eldest branch all owed Hu Lizhi.
"Her mother..."
Wenren Qiqi had borrowed the other person's body for two years, and knew that the only person Hu Lizhi would care about was the human mother who had left her.
She thought that she could go back and look for the other person, and just as she was about to speak, she saw Jiang Xuxu's mobile phone on the side suddenly rang.
Seeing the strange call on it, she picked it up casually, but heard that it was Wenren Jiuye on the other end of the phone.
"Let Wenren Qiqi answer the phone."
Obviously, he already knew the news that Wenren Qiqi had returned.
Jiang Xuxu did not respond immediately, but looked at Wenren Qiqi, "Wen Jiu is looking for you."
She directly omitted the other person's name.
But Wenren Qiqi obviously knew who it was. Thinking about Hu Lizhi, she said almost without hesitation,
"No! Hang up on him!"
Although Hu Lizhi said that she was willing to stay for her, Hu Lizhi would not have made such a decision without Wenren Jiuyi's suggestion.
She didn't really want to hear that person's voice now.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xuxu hung up the call obediently and manually blocked the number.
Wenren Jiuyi seemed to have anticipated the operation here, and there was not much expression on his face.
He knew that with her personality, she would definitely not agree with his approach, but... Hearing her obviously sarcastic words just now, Wenren Jiuyi's mouth twitched slightly.
After all, she is back, isn't she?
Instead of trying to make another call, he opened the Lingshi APP and asked about Jiang Xuxu's situation.
Two fox fires in the clan lit up at the same time, indicating that his little niece had also awakened the blood of the demon clan.
[I know you have awakened your demon power. Find a time to come to the Demon Management Bureau to see me.]
He sent the message, but it prompted that the message failed to be sent.
He was blocked again.
Wenren Jiuxiao: ...
After blocking the number, Jiang Xuxu also blocked the account of [Demon Management Bureau Clerk No. 1] on the Lingshi APP, and then put down the phone again.
At this time, Lu Nanxing finally received the news and hurried over, and the first thing he did was to yell,
"You don't know, I followed you guys in that day, but that passage! It discriminated against me, and it kicked me out! It
's really too much! Is there a limit on the number of people going to the other world..."
Lu Nanxing complained a lot, and Jiang Xuxu listened patiently, then she couldn't help asking about Hua Sui's situation.
She was struck by lightning at that time, and it was Hua Sui who brought them back in time.
She knew that Hua Sui's strong body was not enough to kill him, and seeing that Lu Nanxing was still alive and kicking, she knew that Hua Sui was fine, but she still couldn't help but worry. It would have been
better if she didn't mention this, but when she mentioned this, Lu Nanxing almost cried.
"Hua Sui was badly blown up! There's not a single piece of good skin left on his body, it's all burnt! Luckily I brought the clan's secret corpse oil with me this time, and I've used it to take care of him. It's estimated that it will take a few days to recover..."
Jiang Xuxu was relieved to hear that he could recover, but he was also a little curious about how Lu Nanxing managed to keep his bones from melting. He thought that he had slept all day, so he might as well go over and take a look and stretch his joints.
So, under the guidance of Lu Nanxing, Jiang Xuxu went to Hua Sui's room.
He saw Hua Sui lying in the nanmu coffin, wrapped up like a mummy, with only a pair of eyes exposed.
Jiang Xuxu: ...
After not seeing him for a day, I almost thought he had changed his species.
Hua Sui, on the other hand, did not look uncomfortable. Although only a pair of eyes were exposed, he still blinked at her slowly, looking honest and well-behaved.
Jiang Xuxu spoke to Hua Sui and Lu Nanxing again before leaving the room.
When she went downstairs, she saw Chu Beihe waiting for her downstairs.
As for Jiang Huai and his parents, they did not follow.
Jiang Xuxu walked towards Chu Beihe, and he naturally stretched out his hand to her. The two held hands and slowly walked along the bluestone road, but did not go back, but walked around the village road.
Standing next to Chu Beihe and feeling the spiritual energy coming from his palm, Jiang Xuxu suddenly understood why the little baby spirits wanted to stick to Chu Beihe before.
After awakening the demon power, and feeling the pure aura around him, Jiang Xuxu felt that all the pores on her body were stretching. She
couldn't help but look at the person next to her, and after a long while, she asked,
"Chu Beihe, I'm not a human, do you mind?"
Although he didn't show any abnormality from beginning to end, she still couldn't help but want to ask him.
Chu Beihe didn't seem surprised by this question. He stopped, turned his head, and looked at her with dark eyes.
Instead of answering her question, he asked softly,
"If I'm not a human... would you mind?"
