So I Am A Demon Descendent! - Chapter 711
711 Knocking on the door at midnight
Japan, Tokyo.
At the headquarters of the official organization, Aoki Yui was holding a Yamazaki cup, standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the office, looking out the window.
It was currently the season of cherry blossoms. After the beginning of spring, Tokyo was shrouded in a drizzling rain. As a result, the cherry blossom tree was dyed with a layer of dreamy haze.
!!
The raindrops formed thin streams on the ground, and the petals floated in the air.
In Aoki Yui’s life, she had seen such cherry blossoms more than 20 times and such scenery. This year, she wanted to invite li Xianyu to watch it together, but she hesitated for a long time and did not say it out loud. She only wrote a sentence in the email: When the cherry blossoms bloomed, the Willow Green and peach red were unknown.
She had learned this when she was reading a China poetry collection. The poet used the short blooming period of cherry blossoms to describe the Beauty’s fleeting youth, love, and cherish.
Aoki Yui felt that it was more appropriate for the occasion, so she used it. She believed that with li Xianyu’s intelligence, he would definitely understand her meaning.
“I’ve been looking forward to your arrival every day, and every day is like a year.” Aoki Yui took a sip of the liquor and sighed.
As a girl born in the Aoki family, she had never had a high sense of security. She was always concerned about the attitude of the family’s higher-ups, afraid that they would marry a genius or a young master from a prominent family. They would become the sacrifice for the marriage.
Therefore, she cherished this hard-won relationship, but she was also afraid and worried. They were worried that it would wither before it could sprout. She was worried that li Xianyu’s feelings for her had faded.
They were worried that he would encounter mishaps in the future battle. Although they had infinite confidence in that man, the enemy was also an ancient demon with infinite power.
“Dong Dong.”
Someone knocked on the office door.
“Come in.”
Aoki Yui immediately restrained the sentimentality on her face and became expressionless.
“Team leader Yui, the meeting is starting.”
A female secretary in her forties with a well-proportioned figure and a still-attractive charm pushed the door open and entered. She said respectfully.
This Secretary had been assigned to her by the official organization and had a lot of work experience. It was perfect to help a newbie like her get into character quickly.
However, Aoki Yui didn’t like this Secretary very much because she was not her confidant, but the eyes of the official organization. Her every move was known by the old foxes. In the near future, when she had fully secured her position as the Deputy Team Leader and expanded her network, it would be inevitable for her to replace her Secretary.
“I know.” Aoki Yui put down her glass and left the office with the female secretary.
In the conference room.
The current team leader, four Deputy team leaders, and six top executives of the official organization were gathered.
The new team leader was the second disciple of the Iwazaki Emperor, Mizuka.
The eldest disciple, Kishida Yamamoto, was the second-in-command of the temple of God. The second disciple, Mizuki suzuzu, had made great contributions in the battle against the temple of God and was also the personal disciple of the irazaki Emperor.
Hence, he was chosen as the team leader by the official organization. To be precise, they were temporary team leaders. They had to pass an inspection by an official organization before they could take off their ” temporary ” title. It wouldn’t take too long, but it wouldn’t be too short either. It would take three to five years.
During this period, if he used his official position for his own benefit, embezzled his own money, or made a major mistake in decision making, he could be fired by the official organization at any time.
“Does anyone have any opinions on the handling of the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi?” Seeing that everyone was present, Suzuki ye went straight to the point.
The main topic of this meeting was the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi.
The Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi was a divine weapon of the official organization. It had a strong symbolic meaning, just like the Imperial seal of the ancient Emperor. At the beginning, Sakurai tokimasa borrowed the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi and planned to assassinate the unparalleled war spirit. After his failure, the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi became baoze’s trophy.
The official organization had made many requests to baoze to return the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi, but they were all rejected by baoze.
Generally speaking, this kind of thing was more troublesome to deal with, and often required a long tug-of-war and negotiation.
The official organization was ready to fight a protracted war, and even considered using its big brother to protest against baoze’s invasion of the National Treasures of Japan.
Of course, this was what he had thought in the past.
During this period, they encountered chaos in Tian Shen temple, so the matter of redeeming the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi had to be put on hold. And now, the trouble of Tian Shen temple had been solved. Although they had fallen out with the Association of superpowered beings, the official organization had hooked up with baoze again.
The two organizations were now close friends.
As a result, the official organization began to think about redeeming the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi and bringing this national treasure back.
“I don’t agree to redeem the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi.” Aoki Yui said.
A Deputy Team Leader with a worrying hairline glanced at Aoki Yui and said in a deep voice, ” “The Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi must be retrieved. It’s the spiritual symbol of our organization. Now that team leader Suzuki had taken up his post, he also needed to prove himself with good achievements. Yui, what you need to do is not to oppose, but to facilitate this matter through your relationship with li Xianyu.”
The senior management was divided into two factions. One of them did not take back the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi for the time being and let it stay in baoze. The other faction was determined to retrieve the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi to calm the people down.
Mizuki looked at Aoki Yui with a little expectation.
Some of the senior executives nodded slightly. Now the relationship between the official organization and baoze was very good, and they could take this opportunity to redeem the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi. What if the relationship between the official organization and baoze was not good in the future?
On the international level, the relationship between official organizations was constantly changing, and it was hard to say.
The most important thing was that no one knew how long the relationship between Aoki Yui and Li Xianyu could last, and whether it would bear fruit.
Aoki Yui had already prepared a script and calmly said, ” “I have three reasons. First, after Poison Tail’s death, the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi became an ownerless object and can be used by anyone. We have gotten the corresponding information from li Xianyu and know that it contains a poison that is enough to kill Gokudo Masters. Baoze is now at war with the ancient demon, and it is absolutely impossible to return the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi at this time.”
“Second, even if baoze returns the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi, we can’t take it, because the ancient demons are also coveting them. I got information from li Xianyu that a month ago, the ancient demon launched an internal strife in baoze, and its target was the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi.”
Everyone was shocked and looked at each other.
“Did he tell you personally?” asked Mizuki suzuzu in a deep voice.
Aoki Yui nodded.
Everyone was silent.
Even they didn’t know about these things. They only guessed that the chaos in baoze was caused by the ancient demons, and the true purpose of the ancient demons had never been revealed by baoze.
The source of information for Aoki Yui was absolutely reliable, because it came from li Xianyu.
Appointing her as the Deputy Team Leader was indeed the right decision.
“If that’s the case, then we should seriously consider redeeming the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi,” Mizuki took a deep breath.
Aoki Yui continued, ” three: now baoze and the ancient demons have a war. As an organization that has signed an Alliance of attack and defense, if baoze asks us for help, we can’t stand by and do nothing. Otherwise, it will be a breach of contract. However, after the turmoil in Tian Shen temple, the official organizations suffered heavy losses and can no longer be involved in the battle of that scale.”
“Therefore, lending the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi to baoze is the best way, as another form of assistance from the official organization. We don’t need to pay anything, and baoze still owes us a favor.”
With the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi, his burden and danger could be reduced …
The higher-ups exchanged a look. After some thought, they sighed softly.
If the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi was taken back, they might face the snatching of the ancient demons, but they still had a chance to get it back in the hands of baoze. If it was snatched by the ancient demon, the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi would really change hands.
“In that case, the proposal to redeem the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi will be put on hold for the time being,” said Mizuki.
No one objected.
Aoki Yui was relieved.
…….
Li Xianyu finished eating and replenished the energy needed by his body. He held the wall and left the restaurant with weak steps.
Back in his room, he took a shower and planned to sleep. Great-grandma sent cui Hua to inform him that Qing Huizi had woken up.
“Your sister is awake.” Cui Hua said so.
My sister is ice shards … Li Xianyu nodded and had to go to the ward again. He first visited li peiyun and dan chenzi. Their injuries had been healed, but they had consumed too much energy and their faces were a little pale.
Li Xianyu’s way of visiting was to stand at the door with his hands on his waist, with a disdainful smile on his lips.
In order to avoid the third sparring happening in the medical department, li Xianyu knew when to stop and quickly left.
It was so exciting to run away after acting tough.
He then pushed open the door to Qing Huizi’s ward, which was not far away. His distant cousin had already woken up and was sitting on the bed. Her face was pale and her eyes were tired. Her hair had lost its color and looked like dried straw.
Great-grandma sat by the bed and talked to her.
Although she said that she didn’t agree with the b * stard of Shangqing, great-grandma was still relatively friendly to Qing Huizi.
Seeing li Xianyu come in, Qing Huizi was obviously a little afraid. He stopped talking and kept quiet, looking at him quietly with his dark eyes.
“You’re awake? Is your body alright?”
Qing Huizi nodded.
“What about the evil personality?”
Qing Huizi’s expression and gaze were gentle and calm. It was obvious that she was not the evil personality who would ” seduce ” her at any moment.
I’ve temporarily suppressed her, but she’s an evil thought of mine. I can’t erase it, so I can only try my best to merge with her. Qing Huizi lowered his head in shame. I’m sorry. I’m really useless.
Why did he say sorry … This has nothing to do with me … This Qing Huizi was also abnormal. He was too gentle and too kind.
Li Xianyu immediately realized that this was a good personality without negative emotions. On the internet, he was a Saint, but in romance novels, he was a silly and sweet person. Interesting, I also want to turn my milk into a silly white sweet.
No, in that case, great-grandma’s evil personality would take away my weakness, or even clean up the house.
It was too scary. Great-grandma had better not become silly and sweet.
Great-grandma said calmly, ” I called you here for something. It’s better to make things clear. Don’t hide, the ancient demons will take advantage of you.”
Looking into great-grandma’s eyes, li Xianyu understood what she meant.
…… This is to make me disclose the death of dan Yunzi. If Qing Huizi shows too much hatred, then great-grandma may get rid of her. On the contrary, he would spare this pitiful cousin’s life. Wasn’t this an unnecessary move?
However, it’s good to make it public. It’ll give her a heads up so that Qing Shi, who’s good at bewitching people, won’t find an opportunity to delude them and make her betray him … Well, even if I confess, there’s a high chance that I’ll be bewitched … Eh, if that’s the case, can I beat him at his own game and bait him to enforce the law?
It’s very likely that Qing Shi knows the secret to turning back time. From his point of view, he must know that I know the secret of the seal’s formation. Whether or not he would take the bait was another matter.
As he thought about it, li Xianyu cleared his throat and said in a deep voice, ” “Don’t you find it strange that you haven’t been able to contact Dan Yunzi?”
Qing Huizi suddenly raised his head.
dan Yunzi is dead. He died in the conflict between the official organization and Tian Shen temple. Li Xianyu explained calmly, ” he was bewitched by the ancient demon. He went to Japan to fight against me. He joined the deity society. However, you know his strength. He was not strong enough to participate in a battle of that scale and level, and in the end, he died in the chaotic battle.”
Qing Huizi was stunned, as if he had been struck by lightning.
“I didn’t expect him to be so obsessed. I can’t get away from this.” Li Xianyu sighed.
Lu Xun had once said that the sorrows of humans were not connected. (Lu Xun: I really did say that.)
He didn’t think there was anything wrong with killing dan Yunzi, so he couldn’t empathize with Qing Huizi’s grief. In the same way, Qing Huizi couldn’t empathize with what dan Yunzi had done to him, and he thought that his brother deserved to die.
Therefore, literary modification was necessary. He threw the death of dan Yunzi to the official organization and the temple of God. Anyway, no one had seen the process of killing dan Yunzi, and only li peiyun and the Blood Knight had mentioned it.
Li peiyun had told dan chenzi, but they would not tell Qing Huizi. The former was too lazy to say, while the latter would consider Qing Huizi’s feelings. She would consider that she was following by the enemy’s side. If she knew the truth, she might do something stupid. In that case, she would be the one who would suffer.
“I hope you can learn from this and not repeat the same mistakes.” Great-grandma warned in a deep voice.
Qing Huizi did not seem to hear her. There was so much sadness in her dark eyes. Tears flowed down her thin face like a tide and rolled down her sharp jaw drop by drop.
“I told him not to get entangled in this matter … He just won’t listen.”
“I only have one family member left, and now even he has abandoned me.”
master is not master anymore. I don’t have any relatives …
She cried like a Pear Blossom bathed in the rain, her shoulders trembling. She was extremely sad.
‘As expected of a kind person, he didn’t curse me …’
Li Xianyu wanted to comfort her, but at the thought of his identity and her emotional turmoil at this time, comforting her would only backfire. He left the ward and left her a quiet environment.
Walking along the corridor, great-grandma asked in a low voice, ” “Why didn’t you tell her the truth?”
“Why did you tell her the truth? I’ll admit that dan Yunzi’s death was because she had the right to know.”
“I want to see her true attitude.”
“That is definitely hatred. No matter what dan Yunzi did, he was still her brother in her eyes. It’s just like how even if great-grandma becomes a machine that kills without seeing blood, she’ll still be the cutest and most moving in my eyes.” He took the opportunity to confess.
Great-grandma did not express her opinion on his words, but she quietly pursed her lips, and her tone became lighter. but this way, I can’t tell if she has any thoughts of revenge.
“There’s no need for that. Qing Huizi is not dan Yunzi. She won’t think about how things change every day and make us pay the price. There was no point in telling her the truth. However, we need to keep an eye on her at all times to prevent Qing Shi from secretly coming into contact with her. Oh right, I haven’t seen the Black Dragon recently.”
it seems to have been taken away by the staff of the research department. They promised to feed it every day, and in return, it has to be a lab rat for a period of time. Great-grandma said.
“I’ll go get it back tomorrow. We’re going to war, so I have to keep it with me at all times.”
…..
At 9:30 p.m., Li Xianyu, who had experienced two sparring sessions in one day and had exhausted his energy, did not turn over Ji Fei’s sign. After meditating and practicing Qi, he covered himself with the quilt early and fell into a dream.
In a daze, he was awoken by a knock on the door.
He grabbed his phone from the bedside table and looked at the time. It was midnight.
“Dong Dong!” There was a light knock on the door.
I already said that I’m very tired today. I won’t be able to take it on January 31st either. Why are you in such a hurry? we still have a long way to go … Li Xianyu scratched his head, lifted the quilt, got out of bed, and opened the door for Ji Fei.
When he opened the door, he was surprised to find that the one standing at the door was not the lustful concubine Ji, but his distant cousin.
Qing Huizi was wearing a loose patient’s garb. The first two buttons on his chest were unbuttoned, and his clothes were tilted to the left, revealing his snow-white left shoulder.
She looked at li Xianyu, the corners of her mouth raised, and her dark eyes examined li Xianyu aggressively.
Her expression was disdainful, disgusted, and full of seduction.
