Chapter 339 The Little Flower Demon Who Died Early in the Immortal Demon Plane 15
“Well, actually I’m not a scholar, but a monster hunter.
The reason why he came here as a scholar was because he was entrusted by the Demon-Suppressing Palace to gather information.
The Demon-Suppressing Hall received information that more than ten scholars had disappeared in this area for six consecutive months.
After ruling out human error, they suspected it was the work of a demon. They had sent people to investigate several times before, but found nothing.
For this reason, when I was sent here to investigate, in order to avoid suspicion, I took the medicine in the Demon-Suppressing Palace that was specifically used to remove magic power.
Therefore, I need to wait until tomorrow to recover my magic power.
I'm sorry, Miaomiao, you treated me with all your heart, but I deceived you."
Ling Jiuxiao admitted it readily, but when he looked at Miaomiao, his heart was filled with guilt that was about to overflow.
Miaomiao couldn't say she knew it all along, so she just pretended to be magnanimous and forgave him after suddenly realizing the truth.
In fact, Miaomiao didn’t care much about the other party’s identity.
After all, when you're out and about, your identity is something you give yourself...
She is now even more curious, which monster has such a good appetite that instead of busying himself with practicing martial arts, he is raping women?
Is a scholar really good-looking if he has no chest or abdominal muscles except for his pretty face?
Tsk, what poor taste.
"It doesn't matter. When you're out and about, who doesn't need some privacy? Besides, I'm a demon."
Miaomiao nodded in forgiveness, which was not enough, and she added a few words to support the truth.
However, after he finished speaking, he changed the subject.
"So, are you really Ling Jiuxiao?
Um, is it true that a demon plundered more than ten scholars in just six months?
Ling Jiuxiao was really afraid that Miaomiao would be angry with him. He was already prepared to face Miaomiao's anger or accusations. After all, this meant that he was still important to Miaomiao.
But Miaomiao's reaction was so calm that she didn't show much reaction. Instead, she was full of curiosity about the incident he raised, which seemed to be a boring case to others.
The excited and curious look made him inexplicably jealous.
How could such a wild demon with no taste deserve Miao Miao's curiosity...
However, Ling Jiuxiao still nodded, both to confirm to Miaomiao that he was Ling Jiuxiao, and to confirm to her that there was indeed a monster that had robbed more than ten scholars in half a year.
The case of the missing scholar he mentioned was not a fabrication, but actually happened nearby. He saw it some time ago when he was browsing cases in the Demon-Suppressing Palace.
But such simple matters were not his responsibility. He only dealt with incidents that were difficult for the Demon Suppression Palace to resolve.
Each of them has great magical powers, is full of evil, and brings disaster to the local area, making other monster hunters far behind.
He never takes on tasks that aren't challenging.
That night, they lit a bonfire and decided to go look for the Flame Demon the next day and solve the problem of the Love Gu. By then, it was already completely dark.
As Ling Jiuxiao no longer had any martial arts skills, Miaomiao attentively picked fruits for him and grilled a fish for him to eat, as if she had seen her idol.
It's a pity that although Miaomiao's expression was right, her eyes were always indifferent. Ling Jiuxiao knew very well that everything Miaomiao did was just to avoid offending him.
But it doesn't matter. Although he revealed his identity, his shy scholar look remained unchanged.
The two of them never talked about the previous topic, which was that the other party was obviously a monster hunter in disguise, so why should Miaomiao be responsible for him.
It seemed like they had a tacit understanding, and in short, they got along pretty well.
It was not until later, when Miaomiao dozed off frequently during the chat, that Ling Jiuxiao stopped talking about those topics and wanted to coax the well-behaved girl to rest with some affection.
It is common knowledge between humans and demons that when demons are practicing, they can do whatever they want, day or night. However, when they are in human form and not practicing, they still need to follow the human schedule.
Work at sunrise, and rest at sunset.
"Since you are tired, you should rest early. Tomorrow, when I have recovered my magic power, I will go to the Fire Demon to seek justice."
Ling Jiuxiao finally restrained his urge to hold her in his arms and comfort her, and gave a gentle suggestion.
Miaomiao, who was originally feeling a little sleepy, became more energetic when she heard that she could go to sleep.
Her quick-witted brain recalled the incident that had occurred because they had accidentally hugged each other. Without even thinking, she transformed back into her original form in front of Ling Jiuxiao.
She wasn't actually that sleepy as she acted just now, she was just a little scared for some reason.
She always felt that it might be because she and Ling Jiuxiao were on opposite sides, so Ling Jiuxiao's eyes when he looked at her were not so friendly.
He is obviously gentle, shy, and even like a warm-hearted older brother, but Miaomiao has a strong sixth sense as a demon, and always feels that the other party is more aggressive than she sees herself in the daytime.
It was like...he wanted to eat her up completely.
Therefore, it is better to transform into the original form. The bark of a tree is thick and is not afraid of being bitten.
Looking at Miaomiao like this, Ling Jiuxiao knew that his lack of restraint in the previous conversation had frightened his young wife. Or perhaps the request for responsibility was too abrupt, making her wary.
In short, Ling Jiuxiao, who already knew that he had gone too far today, finally restrained his behavior. After saying good night, he closed his eyes.
Miaomiao, who was in the shape of a camellia beside him, was emitting a faint fragrance, but there was no response.
Ling Jiuxiao leaned against the campfire with his eyes closed. He seemed to be asleep, but in fact his mind was like a churning sea, constantly replaying every detail of what happened today.
This used to be the key to his finding and filling in the gaps, and also the key to his invincibility, but when he recalled what happened today, he still felt incredible.
There was even a feeling of disconnection, as if he was not himself before today. Apart from slaying demons and eliminating evil, he had no other joy, and everything in this world was just a passing cloud to him.
But after meeting Miaomiao, he realized that the sky around him was blue, the grass was green, and even the mountain spring water was flowing with joy. He felt that the world came alive because of her appearance.
Originally, as a demon catcher, Ling Jiuxiao was taught from the beginning not to be tempted by the demon's charm. This is the most basic principle for all demon catchers to be able to walk out of the Demon Suppression Palace.
Always keep a clear head, see through the tricks of evil demons to deceive people, stick to the right path, and maintain peace and stability in the world.
And whether he was in the Demon-Suppressing Palace or came out of the Demon-Suppressing Palace to become an excellent demon catcher, he had been constantly improving all the way, whether it was powerful spells or firm willpower.
But all this was turned into nothing when the Seven-Happiness Bird saw Miaomiao.
Afterwards, his heart was quickly infiltrated by emotions called love and desire. He was the one who knew the most about propriety, righteousness, integrity and shame, but now he was doing things that he had previously despised.
Whether it was his blatant breach of contract under the so-called oath at the beginning, or his subsequent fear of scaring Miaomiao, which led him to become this shy scholar...
His possessiveness towards her could no longer be eliminated...
