C9 The Mysterious Man

"I'm sorry, brother, are you all right?"

It took the boy a long time to recover from the pain. When he saw the two men's faces instantly turn red, he angrily cursed, "Are you crazy? I offended you. You hit me as soon as you came up!"

Su Qian was scolded until she was stunned. There was no doubt that there was a human in front of her, but why did the Demon Hunting Bell indicate that there was demonic energy?

Could it be that there was something wrong with the Demon Hunting Bell? She was very puzzled in her heart.

Li Zezhe was still apologizing with a smile on his face, "I'm really sorry. This is my sister. She's just a child. It's not intentional."

"Crazy!" The boy saw that Li Zezhe was easy to talk to and Su Qian was a girl, so he didn't make things difficult for her. He went into the men's bathroom while cursing.

After he left, Li Zezhe turned his head helplessly. His questioning eyes made Su Qian feel ashamed.

"Is he a monster?" Li Zezhe asked with a slight reproach.

Su Qian scratched the back of her head with embarrassment. Her voice was as soft as a mosquito, "Maybe I made a mistake, but it's really strange. He's a human, but he has a monster aura."

She had lost all her face this time. As a rank 3 Spiritual Cultivator, she couldn't even tell whether he was a human or a beast.

"Forget it. Let's go back to the arena. The competition is at the last moment." Seeing her regretful look, Li Zezhe didn't have the heart to blame her and left the arena with her.

However, when the two returned to the field, the crowd was rushing out of the door. The game had ended.

The topics they talked about were all about the Red Team winning.

After a moment of astonishment, the two of them hurried off to the back of the field, and when they finally made it into the infield, they ran into Gao Ming, who was coming out with a bag in one hand and a hand drying his wet hair. He had changed back into his usual casual clothes.

"Gao Ming!"

The two of them happily ran towards him. Just as they were about to celebrate his victory, the other party merely rolled his eyes at them before turning around and walking towards another exit.

The two of them looked at each other and didn't know what to do.

In the end, Li Zezhe caught up with him and took the backpack from him. "I heard Beichen won."

Gao Ming stopped in his tracks and looked at him expressionlessly. He said, "This year, it's a medal. Don't you know that?"

There was a hint of complaint in his indifferent tone. Su Qian carefully followed behind him, not daring to step forward and interrupt.

"We didn't mean to miss your game. We just happened to run into a man who was behaving strangely, and we thought he was a monster, so we went after him. When we came back, you had won the game."

After Gao Ming heard his explanation, he laughed. His laughter was full of disbelief.

"It's true. If you don't believe me, you can ask Xiao Su!" Li Zezhe looked at Su Qian for confirmation.

Su Qian, who was standing behind Li Zezhe, was surprised for a moment. She hurried forward and confirmed what Li Zezhe had said. "Yes, yes, Brother Zezhe didn't lie. It was my mistake. Gao Ming, don't be angry."

Hearing this, the person in front suddenly turned around. Su Qian, who almost couldn't stop in time, almost hit a wall of meat.

"Why do you call him Brother Ze Zhe and me Gao Ming?" He frowned slightly and looked at Su Qian unhappily.

"Ah?" The sudden question made Su Qian confused.

"I should be older than you!" he added.

Su Qian blinked innocently.

Li Zezhe, who was next to her, laughed and said, "Oh, hey, the lemon has become a demon."

Gao Ming glanced at him and warned him, "Brother Zezhe, be careful of your arrogant chin. Don't let me break it with one punch."

Li Zezhe quickly covered his jaw with his hand, and Su Piaoan was amused by the humor between them. She realized that beneath Gao Ming's cold exterior, he was just like everyone else.

"It's almost one o'clock, so don't starve Su." It was Li Zezhe who made the first compromise.

Gao Ming also gave him face. Seeing him give in, he turned around and threw the car keys to him.

"Borealis."

"All right, all right. You have the final say, boss."

...

So according to what Su Qian knew, Gao Ming had killed Li Zezhe at noon that day, but Li Zezhe had enjoyed it. The relationship between them was far better than what Su Qian needed to know.

The first long holiday in March arrived, and Gao Ming took the opportunity, as Li Zezhe had suggested, to travel abroad.

Su Qian took advantage of the holidays to take on more of the work of handing out pamphlets, and spent her free time looking after the Five Poisons Flower at home. Half a month had passed, and it had already grown roots and a little bud that was gradually turning green. Uncle Su Yan said that on the 21st, it would give birth to a fierce and violent Five Poisons Beast.

After the Hibernation Awakening, the weather had changed. She remembered going out in the afternoon with a clear sky, but at night with thunder and lightning, a heavy rain had trapped her in front of the supermarket for almost an hour.

She didn't want her mother, who was already weak, to come down with the umbrella. It was almost eight o'clock, and the rain showed no sign of stopping.

The cold rain splashed under her feet, and she had run less than five hundred yards when she felt the rain intensify, whipping her like a stone. She had no choice but to take shelter in the demolition building.

The night sky was dark. The insolence of the thunderstorm brewed a gloomy and strange atmosphere in the dark abandoned building.

"Meow ~ ~ ~"

A screech from a cat made Su Qian instinctively turn around and see a black object jump out of the second floor's window and disappear into the darkness.

At that moment, a white light fell from the sky. It was like daytime in the dark alley. Su Qian clearly saw a man in a hat standing not far away!

"Who is it?" She was on guard.

There was still no sound in front of her.

Her eyes were locked on the dark place. After taking out the Directionless Awl, she first put her backpack on the ground and carefully entered the alley.

In the pitch black alley, she was constantly on guard against her surroundings. After about ten meters, another bolt of lightning passed by.

That person had disappeared!

She felt a tap on her shoulder. She turned around and saw a flash of red light.

"Ugh!"

She covered her wounded face, feeling the viscosity of the blood between her fingers. She was sure that there was something out of the ordinary in the darkness, and without waiting for a second attack, she began to chant a spell.

"Meow!"

He was a young man, but his eyes glowed with a fierce green light. His canine teeth hung from his pale lips, and he wore jeans and a large hat jacket with rusty black letters.

Wait!

Sue looked at the familiar coat with surprise. She had a good memory, and the mysterious man in front of her was dressed in the same way as the boy she had seen talking to Anvil the other day.

"It's you?" She read it out loud.

The other party immediately revealed his sharp nails and jumped onto the wall. Borrowing the force, he pounced towards Su Qian!

"Nine Feet Direction, Demon Hunter Slay Demon!"

Su Qian decisively waved the Directionless Awl and started to battle with the mysterious male student in a small alley.

Lightning flashed in the sky, rain wetting their hair and clothes, and the red light collided with the purple blast of air, shattering into tiny sparks that fell to the ground in large and small potholes.

After a dozen or so moves, Su Qian had gradually gained control of the situation. Taking advantage of the moment when the mysterious man was distracted, she struck his shoulder and sent him flying three meters away.

"Meow!"

He let out a cat's scream, looked at Su Qian in fear, and fled in panic!

Su Qian wanted to chase after him, but he quickly disappeared. All that was left was darkness under the rainy night.

The purple flames burned out, and there was only the sound of rain on the ground beside Sue's shallow ears. She touched her aching cheek and thought that since she knew where to find the boy, she might as well go home and tend to her wounds.

Her mother had a special ointment, which was quite effective in treating normal wounds.

"My eyes will be hurt if I go any higher. What is so cruel?" Ye Chunyu carefully put on the gauze for Su Qian. His eyes were full of pain.

"I don't know. It might be a cat demon or a human..." Su Qian recalled the mysterious person's moves and said that he was a demon. However, other than his superficial appearance, he didn't have any obvious features of a demon. It could be said that he was a human, and his body was filled with a demonic aura.

Su Qian suddenly remembered the boy she met at the football match the other day. He was the same as the mysterious person she fought today. They both only had demonic aura, but not the true form of a monster.

"Mom, under what circumstances would a person have the aura of a beast?" Su Qianfan could only ask her mother in confusion.

Ye Chunyu used to be a senior demon hunter. After thinking for a while, he said, "If you inhale demonic energy, such as being trained in demonic arts, or being bitten or scratched by a demon, the situation you are talking about may occur."

Being scratched by a beast...
