Jiuxiaoyun stared at Zaizai, and the clothes on Zaizai began to turn transparent.
Suddenly, Zaizai, who was sleeping soundly, opened his eyes and turned to look in the direction of Jiuxiaoyun.
Jiu Xiaoyun's eyes subconsciously met Zaizai's and he shuddered with fright. He had been forcing himself to use his X-ray vision, and now after being frightened like this, his X-ray vision suddenly failed to work. The transparent wall in front of him suddenly returned to its original state, and he could no longer see the scene inside the house.
Jiu Xiaoyun really wanted to slap himself. What was there to be afraid of when a baby woke up? Besides, the baby couldn't have X-ray vision and couldn't see him. It probably just happened to be looking in his direction.
But now thinking back, those eyes really seemed to be looking at him, which is why Jiu Xiaoyun, who was guilty of something, was frightened.
Wiping away the tears and blood from the corners of his eyes, Jiu Xiaoyun reluctantly used his X-ray vision again. This time, he looked at the stroller first, because his eyes were severely overdrawn and he couldn't go on like this any longer.
Jiuxiaoyun looked inside the stroller and was stunned.
Xiaoshuang, who looked like a fat blue squirrel, was still sleeping inside, but Zaizai was nowhere to be seen.
Jiuxiaoyun looked around quickly, trying to find Zaizai in the house, but he couldn't find any trace of Zaizai.
When Jiu Xiaoyun was wondering, he suddenly felt something touching his trouser leg. He looked down and was so scared that he almost jumped up, and his X-ray vision became ineffective.
I saw Zaizai, who was wearing a one-piece baby suit, crawling to his feet at some point. He was looking up at him with his big eyes full of curiosity.
Jiu Xiaoyun quickly looked around and saw that there was no one around. There was no movement in the house, and Li Xiu didn't get up either. He didn't know how this guy crawled out.
"This is a godsend." Jiu Xiaoyun smiled like an evil uncle, squatted down, and slowly extended his hand to Zaizai: "Be good, Zaizai, let Uncle Yun hug you."
Zaizai seemed to be frightened by Jiuxiaoyun's obscene smile. He shook his head and backed away, obviously very reluctant.
Jiu Xiaoyun would never let her escape as she wished, so he sped up, hugged Zaizai with both hands and lifted her up.
Just when Jiu Xiaoyun was about to look for the blood-sealed stone on Zai Zai to see if Li Xiu had done something to Zai Zai, he suddenly felt his whole body go numb and he couldn't move.
Jiuxiaoyun kept holding Zaizai with both hands, his body completely unable to move, unable even to blink. He could only stare at Zaizai and saw a strange scene.
Zaizai's eyes turned into icy jade, emitting a colorful and strange glow.
"What's going on…what's going on with this Zaizai…" Jiuxiaoyun looked at Zaizai's strange eyes and was horrified. He wanted to use his own power, but no matter whether he summoned the demon spirit or the contract, there was no response at all.
In the gleam of Zaizai's eyes, Jiuxiaoyun discovered that horrible changes were taking place in his body.
He couldn't see his own body, but he could see his hands holding Zaizai. The skin on his hands was aging, and wrinkles appeared on the backs of his hands, which were originally youthful and smooth, like the hands of a man in his thirties or forties.
Jiu Xiaoyun was horrified. If his body was like his hands, he would not be able to accept such an outcome.
"What kind of monster is this!" Jiuxiaoyun regretted it so much at this moment and wanted to get rid of Zaizai, but he couldn't even move.
Just when Jiu Xiaoyun thought his life was over, he suddenly heard a call.
"Zi Zi!" Li Xiu had been watching for a long time. He had already noticed Jiu Xiaoyun, but was just too lazy to pay attention to him.
Later, I found that Zai Zai had actually crawled out by himself and found Jiu Xiaoyun who was hiding outside. I became even more curious, so I didn't come out. I wanted to see what Zai Zai wanted to do, and also see what Jiu Xiaoyun wanted to do.
It was not until Zai Zai underwent a mutation and Jiu Xiaoyun's body aged rapidly that Li Xiu hurried out to stop it.
When he heard Li Xiu's voice, the light in Zai Zai's eyes immediately disappeared, and his eyes, which looked like icy jade, returned to normal.
He broke free from Jiuxiaoyun's hand and fell to the ground, then used his hands and claws to crawl towards Li Xiu.
Li Xiu reached out and picked up Zaizai, who lay affectionately on his chest. Seeing her well-behaved and cute appearance, it was hard to connect her with the horrific scene just now.
"Zi Zai is indeed not an ordinary human child." Li Xiu looked at Zi Zai, then looked up at Jiu Xiaoyun.
Jiu Xiaoyun's body has regained its freedom, but his current appearance is no longer the same as usual.
Jiu Xiaoyun is in his early twenties and looks quite handsome. If he changes into a school uniform and says he is a high school student, that would be enough to fool people.
But now Jiu Xiaoyun has an untidy beard, crow's feet at the corners of his eyes, and his skin condition makes him look like a man in his thirties or forties.
"How could this happen..." Jiu Xiaoyun took out a small mirror from somewhere and saw his current appearance. He was stunned, as if he had been struck by lightning.
"Jiuxiaoyun, why are you running here in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?" Li Xiu asked Jiuxiaoyun.
Jiu Xiaoyun raised his head and looked at Li Xiu and Zaizai, then suddenly threw away the mirror in his hand, knelt down in front of Li Xiu with a plop, and went up to hug Li Xiu's thighs, crying and begging: "Chief, you have to save me, I'm only in my twenties and I haven't had a serious girlfriend yet. I don't want to become a short and soft middle-aged uncle now, please let Zaizai give me back my youth..."
"What's going on with you? Explain everything clearly first." Li Xiu said.
Jiu Xiaoyun didn't dare to hide anything and told the reason why he came here and what happened to the fog monster.
"Commander, you have to believe me. I really had no intention of stealing your divine gem and giving it to that weirdo. I mainly wanted to steal my own blood seal stone back. I know I was wrong..." Jiu Xiaoyun cried.
"Do you know who that weirdo is?" Li Xiu asked casually.
"I don't know. He used fog to cover his body and his voice was disguised. He should be someone I know, but I don't know which one." Jiu Xiaoyun thought for a moment and continued, "But he knows that someone in my family is looking for the Warrior Star, and he has the Warrior Star in his hands. The person who can meet these two conditions should be someone from the Han family or the Li family."
"How can you be sure that they are from the Han and Li families?" Li Xiu asked doubtfully.
"Because my grandfather has always suspected that the Warrior Star is in the hands of the Han family or the Li family, but he couldn't be sure which one. They thought they had hidden it very well. Unexpectedly, my grandfather had already found clues, but due to insufficient evidence, he couldn't find where the Warrior Star was hidden, so he pretended to have no clue." Jiuxiaoyun explained.
"As for the Han family and the Li family, that's even more interesting." Li Xiu originally planned to rip off both families. If this was really the case, he would not let them go.
"Chief, I have confessed everything I should have confessed. This time I really know I was wrong. Please be kind and consider that I have followed you for so long. Even if I have no merits, I have worked hard. Please let Zai Zai... no... let Aunt Zai return my youth to me..." Jiu Xiaoyun hugged Li Xiu's thighs and continued to cry and beg.
"Don't let it happen again next time. Get up." Li Xiu said.
"Thank you, Chief..." Jiu Xiaoyun thanked him repeatedly before getting up from the ground.
"Don't thank me yet. I don't have the ability to change you back. It depends on whether Zi Zi can do it." Li Xiu said, looking at Zi Zi, "Zi Zi, change him back?"
Zaizai seemed to understand what Li Xiu said, but he was obviously unwilling to do so. He simply turned his head away and didn't even look at Jiuxiaoyun.
"My aunt, I really know I was wrong. I shouldn't have done that. It's all my, Xiaojiu's fault. Aunt, please be magnanimous and forgive me this time..." Jiu Xiaoyun wanted to kneel down and kowtow to Zai Zai.
"Zi Zi, let him go this time." Li Xiu still needed Jiu Xiao Yun and didn't want him to continue like this.
Zai Zai looked at Li Xiu, then looked at Jiu Xiaoyun who had a pleading look on his face, then shook his head and babbled something.
"What does she mean?" Jiu Xiaoyun looked confused.
"I guess what she meant is that there's nothing she can do and she probably can't recover." Li Xiu said after thinking for a while.
As if he understood what Li Xiu said, Zai Zai nodded vigorously.
thump!
Jiu Xiaoyun sat down on the ground with a deathly pale face, still muttering to himself: "I don't want to be a middle-aged greasy uncle... I don't want to drink Liuwei Dihuang Pills now... I don't want to become a soft man now..."
The sound of such agony could make anyone who heard it cry and feel sad.
But Li Xiu had no other options, so he patted Jiu Xiaoyun on the shoulder and said, "Go back and rest first, and think of other solutions. I'll also help you think of a solution, Zai Zai."
"Commander, it was all my fault before. As long as you can save me this time, I will work like a slave for you in the future, and go through fire and water. If I say no, I will be your grandson. Commander, you must help me. If I can't go back, I really don't want to live." Jiu Xiaoyun ignited a glimmer of hope again, as if he had grabbed the last straw, and prayed.
"Okay, go back and rest." Li Xiu sent Jiu Xiaoyun away and returned to the room with Zai Zai in his arms.
I put the baby in the stroller and looked at him from left to right, but I couldn't tell what was special about him.
"From this point of view, Zaizai is no different from an ordinary baby. I can't sense any light energy fluctuations in my body. Where did the light just now come from?" Li Xiu thought to himself, "She can actually make people older. It seems that my previous guess is correct. She should be related to the Emerald Time Tunnel. But there seems to be no humans in the Emerald Tunnel. There are only some Emerald dolls. It should be impossible for them to give birth to human children, right? Or is Zaizai also an Emerald doll?"
Looking left and right, he found that the children were living human children, not jade dolls. Li Xiu couldn't figure out what was going on and could only continue to sleep.
After tossing and turning for half the night, Li Xiu felt a little sleepy. He slept until noon. If Lao Jia hadn't woken him up, he could have slept a little longer.
"Director, Vice President Han wants to see you." Lao Jia said in a low voice.
"She's finally here. Let's invite her to the hall for some tea first." Li Xiu said, stretching.
After Lao Jia went out, Li Xiu finished washing up, fed Xiaoshuang some gems, got half a bottle of milk for Zaizai, and then carried Zaizai to the living room.
"Vice President Han is such a rare guest." Li Xiu said to Han Minghui after entering the living room.
Han Minghui, who was drinking tea, stood up immediately when she saw Li Xiu coming in. She said frankly with a smile, "No matter how rare it is, it's not as rare as the gemstone of General Manager Li's throne."
"Since Vice President Han is also here for the divine gem, then I won't waste my saliva. What do you plan to exchange for the divine gem?" Li Xiu looked at Han Minghui and saw that there were no boxes of any size around her, as if she had nothing with her.
"The divine gem is a priceless treasure. Naturally, only priceless treasures can be compared with it." Han Minghui said with a smile.
"Oh, a priceless treasure that can be compared with the divine gem. I really want to know what that is." Li Xiu said casually, and anyone could see that he was not sincere.
Han Minghui didn't mind and said, "I heard that Chief Li has a sword contract with fire attribute, which has reached the soul casting level?"
"There is indeed such a sword. What does Vice President Han mean?" Li Xiu knew that Han Minghui was talking about the Fire Lotus Sword.
However, the Fire Lotus Sword is still only at the light-based level and does not have a forged soul. The reason why it can burst out with the power of a forged soul level is because of the forged soul of the Evil Spirit Card.
But these are not the point. Han Minghui must have her reasons for suddenly mentioning the Fire Lotus Sword at this time.
"Can I borrow your sword?" Han Minghui looked at Li Xiu with a smile.
"Vice President Han, you're joking. You probably have a lot of deeds like that around you. Why would you need to lend me that broken sword?" Li Xiu said.
"Since Chief Li is unwilling to lend it, please do me a favor with that sword." Han Minghui still said with a smile.
"What help?" Li Xiu asked with a frown.
Han Minghui suddenly walked to a high table beside her, leaned over it, and lowered her head to the other side of the table. Her long black hair also fell down like a waterfall.
"Please use your Fire Lotus Sword to cut off my head." Han Minghui lay there with her face sideways looking at Li Xiu, smiling sweetly, but said words that made Li Xiu feel incredible.
"Vice President Han...are you okay?" Li Xiu frowned.
"Don't you want to see the priceless treasure? Cut off my head, and you can naturally see the priceless treasure." Han Minghui said.
"I've never heard of such a thing. You have to chop off your head just to see a treasure. Could it be that the priceless treasure is inside your head?" Li Xiu had no intention of taking action at all. He shook his head and said, "If that's the case, I'd better not look at it."
Han Minghui stood up after hearing this and said with a smile: "Director Li has long disliked me. If I die, wouldn't that be your wish? Why don't you do it?"
Li Xiu said nothing, just looked at Han Minghui coldly.
"Since Director Li is unwilling to do it, I will do it myself." Han Minghui said, and suddenly summoned her jade fan. With a wave of her hand, the jade fan opened and the sharp jade light slashed towards her snow-white neck.
when!
The jade light was directly applied to the neck, and a strange scene appeared. Fine lines like snake skin appeared on Han Minghui's snow-white neck.
Fine lines covered her skin, and the jade light cut through it, making a tinkling sound, but it couldn't hurt her at all.
Han Minghui waved the fan to wipe her neck repeatedly, and there was a continuous tinkling sound. However, the soul-casting jade fan could not hurt her skin at all.
"What is that?" Li Xiu looked at the strange fine lines on Han Minghui's body with some surprise, which looked like jade patterns and scales.
That was obviously not a contract, but it was not a skill either. I wonder what it was that could easily withstand the attack of the Soul Casting level.
"This thing is called Dragon Scale Clothes." Han Minghui said as he slowly unbuttoned his windbreaker. He was not wearing any clothes inside, but scales covering his entire body.
The scales are like jade, clinging tightly to the body, and the tights look like snake skin and jade patterns.
"This dragon scale clothing is made of golden scales of god-level creatures. It is so light when worn next to the body that it seems invisible. Normally, its existence is almost undetectable. However, after being attacked, it can withstand attacks from the Forged Soul level without any damage. Even when facing attacks from the god-level, it can still play a certain defensive role. After all, its material is the god-level demon spirit."
Han Minghui looked at Li Xiu and said slowly: "The things of the divine throne in exchange for the things of the divine throne, plus a promise from me."
"What promise?" Li Xiu asked.
"If you exchange the divine gem with me, after I am promoted to godhood, I will help you whenever you need to kill a divine demon. I can do it as many times as you want until the divine demon you kill produces the divine gem." Han Minghui said seriously.
"It does sound like a good offer." Li Xiu said calmly, "But I don't need you to help me kill the God-level demon spirits. Let's be practical. Do you have anything else besides the dragon scale coat? If not, I can only say sorry."
Han Minghui sighed, pulled up his windbreaker, and took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Li Xiu: "All the accumulation of the Han family over the years is here. As long as you are willing, they and the dragon scale clothes on my body will all be yours."
Han Minghui really spared no expense. As long as he could be promoted to the status of a god, those worldly possessions would be returned soon.
Li Xiu took the paper and opened it to have a look. There were indeed all kinds of treasures inside, all of which were priceless. There were even soul-casting-level skill rings, talent gems, magic spirit rings, and even soul-casting-level contracts.
Other top-grade gemstones, magic cores, etc. are all sold by pound here.
As Li Xiu looked at it, he couldn't help but feel moved when he saw a name.
"Warrior Star?" Li Xiu read out the name in the gem column on the paper, thinking to himself, "I just heard the name of Warrior Star last night, but I didn't expect to see it today. It turns out that the Warrior Star is in Han Minghui's hands. Could it be that the mist man who traded with Jiu Xiaoyun is Han Minghui?"
