"Yes." Gu Wenyu nodded, "Look at my eyes, they are still black."
"That mental power just now...is it a white-faced fox?" He Xi approached Gu Wenyu again, his tone still a little suspicious, but he had already put down most of his guard.
"Yes, she was a little angry. She's fine now. She's fine." Gu Wenyu admitted openly.
"What's going on? I called you earlier, and the person who answered the phone was a white-faced fox." He Xi asked the biggest doubt in his heart.
"Tell me as we walk, take me back to Guyin Village first." Naturally, Gu Wenyu didn't want to stay here any longer. She still had something to ask her little grandpa.
"Yeah." He Xi had no reason to refuse. After Gu Wenyu returned to the cave to get his schoolbag, he took Gu Wenyu back again.
On the way, Gu Wenyu told He Xi what happened, but she hid the part about the strange book of fate and only said that He Xi suppressed the white-faced fox by herself.
He Xi obviously didn't believe it, but by the look and tone of Gu Wenyu's words, he could already confirm that the person in front of him was indeed Gu Wenyu himself, not the white-faced fox pretending to be.
But He Xi obviously didn't believe Gu Wenyu's statement that she had suppressed the white-faced fox by her own will.
"So you're saying... the white-faced fox made a deal with you, you sacrifice your body and soul to her, and she helps you deal with the old Taoist priest?" He Xi confirmed.
"Yeah, that's it. The young man is very smart, and his understanding ability is perfect." Gu Wenyu patted He Xi's shoulder with great "appreciation" to express his approval of He Xi.
He Xi was not complacent about this. He continued with a strange expression: "Did you know that she also helped you modify the memories of everyone in Guyin Village?"
"Well, I probably...know." Gu Wenyu seemed a little hesitant, because Gu Wenyu didn't actually know what the white-faced fox had done.
"Maybe you know?" He Xi took a deep breath and said speechlessly: "Driving the Demon King has done you such a big favor, and the price is to sacrifice your body and soul. How can you be so capable!"
"Don't praise me like that, it's just good luck." Gu Wenyu smiled heartlessly, and he didn't know whether he was pretending to be stupid or really stupid.
He Xi glanced at Gu Wenyu angrily, "Then the white-faced fox touched old wounds while devouring your soul, causing the devouring to fail. In turn, you suppressed her again?"
"Yes, yes, that's it! Am I unlucky?" Gu Wenyu nodded like a fool.
"If I remember correctly, did you say that the white-faced fox was once a demon king?"
"That's right, that's what she told me." Gu Wenyu still nodded, not feeling anything wrong at all.
"Do you know what level of demon can be called the demon king?"
"Uh... let me think about it." Gu Wenyu thought about it seriously. She really didn't know about this issue before. Now that she has Yaoyi's memory fragments, Gu Wenyu also knows some common sense about the demon slayer.
But she couldn't find any memory fragments about the Demon King.
Maybe Yaoyi's level is too low, and the Yunqing sect is a small sect, so Yaoyi has no access to these things. Maybe Yaoyi herself does not have any knowledge storage in this area.
He Xi didn't wait for Gu Wenyu to think. He didn't think Gu Wenyu would know these things, "You don't think that the snake demon we met in the small world can be regarded as the demon king, do you?"
"I don't think so..." Gu Wenyu said dullly. Of course she knew that the third master could not be called the demon king, because when she met the snake demon, the white-faced fox said that the third master's cultivation level was too low. Explaining that the white-faced fox and
The third master is not of the same level, at least two major realms apart.
"The so-called demon king must be at least a seventh-level great demon. Only those who dare to claim to be the demon king of one side will have all demons surrendering." He Xi explained.
"Oh, that's amazing." Gu Wenyu clapped his hands stupidly, applauding him very much, but continued to pretend to be dumbfounded.
The white-faced fox said disdainfully: "Humph, seventh grade?"
Gu Wenyu was shocked. What the white-faced fox meant was that her original cultivation level was still above the seventh level.
He Xi shook his head and said in a slightly exaggerated tone: "You are so powerful. You are a second-level demon slayer. Oh, no, you are a third-level demon slayer. After you sacrificed your soul, you can still rely on willpower alone."
Just suppress one demon king?"
The meaning of He Xi's words was obvious. He didn't believe what Gu Wenyu said.
"I think it's ridiculous too, but that's the truth. Otherwise, do you think I have any other way to survive besides good luck? That's the Demon King!" Gu Wenyu was so stupid that she just took a sip.
She insisted that it was what she said.
"..." He Xi was speechless for a moment. If he wanted to get other possibilities, he would have asked for a yarn ball.
Both of them were silent for a while, and finally it was He Xi who spoke first: "Xiao Hei, if you have anything to do, you can tell me. I don't want the next time we meet, to be the time when I have to kill you."
"...It's not that serious. Xiaobai probably won't come out again. We have reconciled."
"Reconciliation? You reconciled with a demon king who tried to seize your body? How did you reconcile? It couldn't just be luck, right?" He Xi was still a little dissatisfied with Gu Wenyu's repeated deceptions.
"Well, Xiaobai and I are good friends." Gu Wenyu nodded disapprovingly.
When the white-faced fox heard this, he expressed his disdain, "Whoever is your friend, don't have a random relationship."
"Forget it, forget it if you don't want to say it, don't bother making up lies to lie to me." He Xi didn't want to listen to Gu Wenyu's nonsense anymore, and didn't know what was going on. Gu Wenyu didn't want to tell the truth to him, which made him feel
I feel somewhat unhappy, but I can't find the source of the emotion.
"..." Gu Wenyu couldn't tell He Xi about the strange book of fate, so she could only choose to shut up.
The two of them walked forward for a long time without saying a word. Gu Wenyu followed He Xi, secretly glancing at him from time to time. Seeing that He Xi still had a sullen face, Gu Wenyu originally wanted to ask He Xi something but she failed.
I kept it in my heart.
He Xi seemed to be aware of Gu Wenyu's prying eyes. He finally turned to look at Gu Wenyu and said with a wry smile: "Why don't you speak?"
"I thought you were angry..." Gu Wenyu said pitifully, without the confidence he had when he just made up lies.
He Xi shook his head, "Don't be angry. Everyone has their own secrets. It's your right to tell them or not. I hope you can really suppress the demon king in your body and don't make any mistakes again."
"Yeah." Gu Wenyu nodded obediently and said, "Speaking of which, you seem to have been promoted to fifth rank?"
He Xi did not answer directly, but said in a strange tone: "I'm not here to save you."
