Chapter 85 The system is absolutely fine.
Su Yu remained silent.
But those familiar with him could tell that he had already quietly withdrawn into himself.
Feng Huaijin, in a serious tone, changed the subject, saying, "Since that's the case, then you should go back and not bother me and my brother."
He was planning to propose.
“No,” Su Yu denied, putting her hand on Wen Xiao’s shoulder and saying kindly, “Your brother and the others should be waking up soon. Shall we go and bring Wen Shu here?”
Wen Xiao remained steadfast: "I will not let my brother be in danger as well."
"A bottle of low-grade Earth-level pills."
And so it was decided happily.
Wen Xiao went to call Wen Shu to treat Feng Huaijin's injuries, and Su Yu gave them Earth-grade pills as payment.
Wen Shu, who was initially furious after regaining consciousness, fell silent after hearing Wen Xiao's explanation.
He smacked his lips on the unfinished wine on the table, looking troubled.
Although he was indeed the highest-ranking alchemist in their small town, it was still suspicious that a demon with Earth-grade pills would resort to kidnapping to find a Profound-grade alchemist.
"Have you asked about the identities of those two brothers?"
Wen Xiao scratched her head: "I didn't dare to ask. If something's wrong, should we just run away?"
"It's a pity about that bottle of Earth-grade pills. If we could get our hands on it and study it, you would definitely be able to advance even further."
He felt a little sorry for his brother. Earth-grade pills were really rare in their area. Even if they appeared, they would be snatched up by some powerful demons, and it wouldn't be a chance for demons like them who made a living by trading.
Brother Xuan had done them a favor by saving their lives, and Brother Xuan had sworn to serve the caravan for twenty years, which is why he refused the invitations from other factions to show goodwill.
Although Boss Xuan and the others tried their best to cultivate Wen Shu, a somewhat talented alchemist, their resources were still limited, and they did not have the inheritance of those forces. Wen Shu's breakthroughs in alchemy cultivation were basically all on his own.
Wen Shu knew that his younger brother was concerned about him, but worried that the matter behind the two brothers would implicate the caravan, so he frowned and hesitated to speak.
Xuan, who had been listening nearby, patted him unsteadily. Still drunk and having just woken up from a daze, he said somewhat dizzily, "It's rare, but it's a rare opportunity. Just give it a try. Maybe you'll find a fallen phoenix? Great opportunities always require taking risks. We merchants have to be bold. What are you afraid of!"
The demons around him echoed his sentiments.
And so Wen Shu was taken to the cave by Wen Xiao.
While waiting for the demon, Su Yu tried to ignore the gaudy decorations throughout the cave. Well, objectively speaking, they were quite cozy and beautiful, but the thought of why Twelve was decorated like this made his scalp tingle.
Yes, although Feng Huaijin was unable to successfully carry out his plan due to the interruption, Su Yu still saw through it.
The other party's intentions were far too obvious.
This behavior is no different from that of a male bird that builds a beautiful nest to attract a mate.
Su Yu really wanted to pretend she couldn't see it.
He needs to escape.
Yes, when bloodline awakening is abnormal, demons can indeed experience various symptoms such as uncontrollable innate abilities, amplified desires, and behavior influenced by bloodline characteristics.
For example, Su Yu's Moon Demon bloodline gave him a strong sense of being the boss. The reason for this was that during the ancient era when the demon race ruled, the Moon Demon race was one of the top forces, and pride was ingrained in their bones.
Even though the ancient demon race no longer exists, demons who accidentally awaken their bloodline are still deeply affected by this pride, especially during the abnormal periods caused by bloodline awakening.
Take Wan Qin for example. He transformed into a giant wolf and let his animalistic instincts dominate his behavior.
What the hell? Feng Huaijin was actually trying to woo him. Could it be that his desire to woo someone was stronger than his bloodline instincts?
Su Yu was utterly baffled, and sometimes she really wanted to crack open his brain to see what was inside.
So at this moment, he closed his eyes and pretended to be resting.
Out of sight, out of mind.
And prevent Feng Huaijin from having any opportunity to speak.
If it weren't for his injuries, Su Yu would have already considered letting her younger brother grow up independently.
Su Yu's eyeballs twitched under her eyelids.
After the system finished speaking, it couldn't help but hum a few tunes, clearly indicating that working for it was like taking a vacation.
After a few words, the system's cheerful voice abruptly stopped, followed by the sound of data being choked and coughing, which echoed in Su Yu's mind.
Su Yu: ...This is noisy too.
However, the system was in his mind's eye; he couldn't just pry open his skull.
The system emitted a terrified scream:
Su Yu felt very innocent:
He didn't know the villain named Feng Shi at all, and had never even seen him before.
He couldn't help but have a moment of doubt:
The system is determined to vindicate itself.
The system went silent after it finished speaking.
Su Yu waited, her eyes still closed, but she could still feel the intense, burning gaze directed at her from the side.
I'm feeling frustrated and want to abandon it.
But after raising him for so many years, he couldn't really bear to abandon Feng Huaijin forever.
Moreover, there was an old devil who inexplicably harbored murderous intent towards Twelve, and Su Yu was very worried that if she really abandoned her younger brother, he would die without his knowledge.
So when will the two brothers named Wen Shu and Wen Xiao arrive?
Shouldn't he have just let the demon go back? Wouldn't it have been more effective to directly take the demon hostage and demand treatment?
That's what he did during those years of wandering in the apocalypse: only by controlling their lifelines could he trust others to heal his wounds.
Although the Demon Realm is also a place where the strong prey on the weak, it is at least slightly better than an extreme apocalypse. Su Yu hadn't done this for a long time and usually acted like a normal demon.
However, this time the enemy he faced was the Demon Lord, and the difference in strength was too great. His instincts kicked in, and he subconsciously reverted to his most familiar way of doing things.
Everything except oneself is a potential danger and enemy; one must ensure that the situation remains under one's control.
Of course, Feng Huaijin is still considered to be in the innermost circle of Su Yu's demonic domain.
Just as Su Yu was about to reach her limit with Feng Huaijin's various attempts to get close to her, the sound of a demon finally broke out outside.
The footsteps were chaotic, there were many demons, and it wasn't Wen Xiao.
Su Yu opened her eyes instantly, a cold glint flashing in her gaze.
Feng Huaijin, who was carefully pinching his fingertips, also stopped, his red eyes showing impatience and irritability at being disturbed.
