In the end, Xia Ji still ate happily.
"How fragrant!"
Biting into her mouth, Xia Ji finally understood where the custom of demons eating demons came from.
Just one bite was better than ten days of her cultivation.
Unfortunately, she couldn't kill.
Every time she thought of this, she couldn't help but think of what her grandmother had said.
"You can enter the world, but don't kill."
Su Qing was also eating, and he ate even faster because he did not expect that a bite would actually provide him with a small amount of black gas.
"It seems that it's not necessarily only the demon core that contains black gas. The entire body of a demon is a treasure.”
He also understood why the righteous people loved to subdue demons and devils. Fame was secondary. Speeding up cultivation was the right path.
Teacher Xia, what's wrong?"
Su Qing noticed that Xia Ji's expression was downcast and was a little curious, so she asked.
"Nothing, I just thought of something.”
Xia Ji said with a depressed expression.
"What is it? Tell me."
Su Qing was even more curious. He had only learned part of the secrets of cultivation from the black-robed old man. Xia Ji had lived for so many years, had a background, and had a status. She must know more.
"I'm thinking why I can't kill.”
Xia Ji took a bite of the meat and sighed." Ever since I entered the human world fifty years ago, my grandmother taught me not to kill unless I had no choice. However, the cultivation speed of demons is slow to begin with, comparable to zombies.”
"And most demons rely on killing people and demons to increase their strength.”
At this point, Xia Ji pointed at the crocodile on the grill and said," This crocodile has only gained sentience for more than 50 years and has such cultivation. As for me, I'm a natural Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox with extremely high talent. Logically speaking, even if I cultivate for ten years, I can easily crush him. However, after so many years, I'm still much weaker than him.”
After Xia Ji finished speaking, she looked at Su Qing bitterly and continued," You're a human. According to your age, you're only a child among the demons. In the end, the crocodile demon couldn't even last one move against you. Is this fair?"”
"Um."
Su Qing did not know how to reply. Was she supposed to say that she had only cultivated for less than half a month and could not be considered a child among the demons, but only a fertilized egg?
Although he was relatively straightforward, his IQ and EQ were not low.
If she really said it, Xia Ji would probably find a hole to hide in.
"Well, let me ask you a straightforward question. Do you want to be a monster like the crocodile demon?”
"I don't want to."
Xia Ji shook her head decisively and said," Although killing is simple, I hate it, especially when it's for my own selfish desires.”
"I've been living in human society for fifty years. Sometimes, I feel more like a human than a demon. It's impossible for me to kill someone for no reason.”
Su Qing smiled and said," That's it. If you don't want to kill him, then don't kill him. There are so many reasons.”
"However, there are always things like the crocodile spirit that find trouble with me. Moreover, some things happen around me, so I can't ignore them.”
Speaking of protection, Xia Ji's face turned red. She didn't know who was protecting who, but the meaning was similar.
"Trouble? That's simple. Just look for me."
Su Qing had been worried that the Empire's regulations were too strict and that it was difficult to encounter supernatural or special events. He did not mind such trouble at all. In fact, he felt that it was too rare.
"Looking for you?"
Xia Ji stopped what she was doing and was stunned. Soon, her face turned red again and she said in a low voice," We're teacher and student. It's impossible.”
"Unless…you graduate."
When Su Qing heard this, she was stunned. What did this mean? She quickly explained," Don't think too much. I mean, I have a strong sense of justice. If you have such trouble, just look for me."”
Hearing this, Xia Ji's face instantly turned red. Was this a misunderstanding?
Moreover, from the tone of his voice, it seemed that the other party was a little disgusted and could not wait to explain it clearly. He was suddenly a little disappointed.
But seriously, she couldn't even see through Su Qing's strength. It was very likely that he was a true Brute Refinement Grandmaster. With a legendary Brute Refinement Grandmaster as a guarantee, it seemed that he could really save a lot of trouble.
After all, the most active demons in society were ordinary demon kings that were comparable to grandmasters.
With a Physique Refinement Grandmaster in front of them, almost no one dared to cause trouble.
If he wanted to do something in private, he had to imagine the consequences of offending a Temper Refinement Grandmaster. A stingy Grandmaster was another name for a Temper Refinement Grandmaster.
"Are you serious?"
Although she knew Su Qing's personality was genuine, she still couldn't help but ask.
"It's true."
Su Qing nodded with a smile." Who doesn't have a little justice in their hearts when they kill demons and devils? Especially when they have the ability.”
Although he said that, only he knew what he was thinking.
"Pull the hook?"
Xia Ji stretched out her fair little finger and waved it in front of Su Qing.
Su Qing was a little speechless when she saw this scene. Did she really treat him like a child? However, when she saw Xia Ji's sincere gaze, she still reached out her hand and hooked it.
"We've agreed that you'll protect me in the future.”
Xia Ji said happily.
From today onwards, she had someone backing her up, even though this person was her student.
Su Qing nodded and asked casually," I'm a little curious. What do you mean by entering the world and gaining power?"”
Actually, he had always felt like a storm was brewing. There must be a reason for the increase in supernatural incidents. It couldn't be for no reason.
"I'm not too sure about that. In short, my grandmother said that a new round of power is about to begin, and it's an unprecedented power.”
Xia Ji suddenly sighed and continued," Actually, according to the legend of our Qing Qiu clan, we have participated in every major event. However, it is unfortunate that our Qing Qiu clan is unlucky and always chooses the wrong path in the major events. As a result, our clan has been weakened and there is no chance for us to continue making mistakes.”
Xia Ji looked up at Su Qing and said," It is said that the situation this time is unprecedented. Our Qing Qiu clan must think of a way to preserve the fire seed. My grandma asked me to enter the human world and learn to be ordinary.”
"She said that humans are born protagonists. If I mix with them, I might be able to avoid the general trend of this life and survive in the cracks.”
"In layman's terms, it means that we don't stand on the same side as the general trend. This way, we won't be easily affected.”
Su Qing was confused after hearing this. He had no idea what was going on.
He could only understand one key point, which was that the world was going to be chaotic, and many people might die in it.
"Sigh, I'm still not strong enough."
Su Qing thought helplessly.
If he was really strong, then he should be able to avoid the general trend. At the very least, he had to ensure that he and the people around him would not be affected.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of you as long as I can. Let's avoid those dangerous things together.”
Su Qing looked at the self-lamenting Xia Ji and comforted her.
"Yes, we don't ask for anything else. We just want stability.”
Xia Ji nodded seriously.
