When Gu Xi saw the string of red and shiny candied haws in Yuan Chu's hand, she was stunned for a moment, hesitated but still reached out to take the string.

Gu Xi's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she lowered her head again. Her voice sounded a little hoarse: "Disciple thanks Master."

Seeing Gu Xi taking the string of candied haws, Yuan Chu felt a little relieved. After all, he accepted this little disciple.

She glanced at Gu Xi and said, "Okay, then I won't disturb you anymore. You should have a good rest." After that, she walked out.

Yuanchu walked out, and just as he closed the door for her, he heard the system's favorability report.

“叮,好感度+10,+1+1+1+1……+1+1一直加满了十个才停止。”

Yuanchu was helpless: How tangled is this little disciple's heart? She is so soft-hearted. How could there be such a silly and cute girl in the world?

At the same time, she felt a little excited, her heart was soaring: that was her little kid, if she wasn't lovable, who would be lovable?

Finally: She had only met the kid for less than two hours, and her favorability had fluctuated several times, and finally only remained at 74. It was really terrible!

After this lesson, Yuanchu thought he had to be more careful in the future. Maybe one day his favorability would be deducted to a negative number, and he would be ruined without knowing it...

After Yuan Chu left, Gu Xi's face changed slightly and he looked dazed.

She repeated the word "specially" that Yuanchu had just said, and murmured uncertainly, "Specially?"

Is it intentional?

She had always known that her master didn't like to eat candied haws, and she had bought them for herself before, as she was the only one who could eat them.

She didn't particularly like it, but she liked it as long as her master bought it.

How much do you like me? I like you to the core.

Gu Xi looked at the string of bright red candied haws, and a little cherished sweetness spread from the bottom of her heart.

Then she thought of something, and her eyes became sore again: Master, I am no longer a child, when will you treat me as an adult?

When you are thinking about others, have you ever considered my feelings?

She suppressed the bitterness in her eyes, opened her mouth and took a bite of the candied haws, and the crispy and sweet sugar coating crackled with a snap.

Chew it slowly again, and it still tastes sour and sweet.

But she always felt that this string of candied haws tasted worse than the previous ones.

But since it was bought by her master, she always managed to finish all of them.

The next morning.

After waking up from their sleep, several people had breakfast, then got ready and went out of the city to investigate the matter regarding the demons.

To the north of North City is another adjacent city. In short, it is the territory of the human race. If a monster appears, it will be like a rat crossing the street, and everyone will want to kill it.

No matter how rampant the monster is, it dare not practice under the noses of humans.

Moreover, the cultivation methods of the demons are different from those of humans. They mainly rely on refining resentment and evil energy to improve their own demonic cultivation, so the appearance of demons in the north can be ruled out.

That left them with only the east, west, and south to explore, so they eliminated them one by one.

This time, they went out of the city and headed east. If they found nothing in the east, then the only two directions left were the west and the south.

According to the plan, they left the city that day and conducted a large-scale search in the east.

To the east of the north city there is a big river with lush aquatic plants and the warm sunlight shining on the sparkling water.

It was a thriving scene, and it didn't look like there was any sign of an invasion by demons.

The monsters are extremely treacherous, sinister and evil, and their attacks are extremely powerful.

After all, if it were invaded by evil spirits, there would be no grass growing there, so how could there be such a vibrant scene?

Yuanchu and Luo Xingchuan were a little older and probably knew this characteristic of the demons.

But Gu Xi and the other younger generations were born relatively late, and the demons had disappeared from the world of cultivation for several decades.

When they were born, the demons had already been sealed in the demon world. Perhaps they only knew about this characteristic of the demons from books or from their elders.

Yuanchu was afraid that they didn't know, so he explained this characteristic of the demon race to them while recalling the past.

“If it is invaded by evil spirit, could it actually cause such a serious problem? It would cause flowers, plants and trees to be unable to grow normally. Wouldn’t the invaded soil be lifeless?” Wei Lingyu was somewhat unbelievable.

Yuanchu nodded: "Well, it should be so."

Qiu Chaoyun was somewhat confused and asked, "Will the invaded soil never recover?"

"That's not the case. It depends on the extent of the evil spirit's invasion. If there is pure and strong spiritual power, it can be purified and the soil can be restored to its original state."

“Or wait until the day comes when the evil energy attached to that piece of soil is naturally eliminated after being illuminated by the essence of the sun and the moon for a long time.” Yuanchu explained to the girls.

"Oh, so that's how it is." Now everyone understood what Yuanchu had just said.

The sun was about to set and the clouds in the sky were burning half red, but Yuan Chujian did not detect any trace of the monster.

It was getting dark. If I didn't return, I would have to spend the night by the river.

Yuanchu immediately decided to let everyone go back to the city first. After all, there was no point in searching any further.

At night, Yuanchu and his group gathered together to discuss the direction they should explore tomorrow.

"Master Yuan Feng, according to the living habits of the demons themselves, the east side of the north city should be ruled out. After all, the demons cannot survive there." Luo Xingchuan looked at Yuan Chu and asked for her opinion.

Yuanchu certainly understood what he meant, and she nodded: "Yes, that's true. There is only one big river in the east, and because of its environment, it is unlikely that demons will appear."

"Then we only have the west and south that we haven't explored yet. What do you think, Master Yuan Feng?" Luo Xingchuan asked seriously.

Yuanchu thought for a moment and said, "The west and south are both barren mountains, and both may be places where demons appear. It is really hard to figure it out, so we can just investigate them one by one in the order of east, west, south and north."

"What do you girls think?" Yuan Chu looked at Gu Xi, Qiu Chaoyun and others.

Then Ye Wan and the others looked at each other, bowed and said, "It's up to Elder Yuan to arrange."

Luo Xingchuan: "Okay. Then let's go to the west tomorrow to find out what's going on."

Finally, Yuanchu was still a little worried, and warned the girls: "The monsters are cruel and evil, mysterious and unpredictable, and their whereabouts are uncertain. Be careful tomorrow."

"Yes."

"Okay, you are all tired today, go back to your room and rest early." Then several people dispersed and went back to their rooms to rest.

Before leaving, Gu Xi glanced at Yuan Chu with her eyes flickering. She pursed her lips, but ultimately said nothing.

Then she turned around and prepared to go back to her room, but her steps were very slow, as if she was waiting for something.

Noticing Gu Xi's small movements, Yuan Chu wondered: Did the little disciple want to say something to him?
