Book 11: Chapter 17

"Uncle, who are you? Can you explain the situation?" Lin Xiang felt that the uncle in front of him was familiar, as he gave off the feeling like they had met before.

The uncle's stature was not strong. He was average, and his appearance was not bad. Smiling in a harmless manner, he looked like a kind and chatty uncle next door, but Lin Xiang knew that he must not be deceived by his appearance.

"Ah, I know who you are. Lin Xiang, right? My dad often talks about you."

"Answer the question, okay?"

"Young people are impatient. Let me tell you, I am Sekisawa Chuuji. Can you guess who I am?" The uncle looked at Lin Xiang with a smile.

Sekisawa Sekisawa Qian Libing, Sekisawa Aiko

Holy moly, no way.

Looking at Sekisawa Chuuji's smile, Lin Xiang always felt a little anxious. Did Aiko tell him about that incident? Probably He simply had the behaviour of a pervert, so if she did tell her father, then it was possible for a daughters father to fight for justice.

Seeing Lin Xiang lowered his head, Sekisawa Chuuji scratched his face, slightly puzzled, "Hey, what's wrong with you?" He never wanted that outcome.

"Nothing About that, is Aiko doing well?" Well, talk about touching a sore spot. Lin Xiang would turn stupid when he was nervous.

"Oh, oh?" Hearing that, Sekisawa Chuuji narrowed his eyes even more. Instead of asking for his father who was always putting him first, Lin Xiang asked about his daughter. Something might have happened to them This kid is that guy's nephew, a little risky. I have to take good care of my daughter from now on.

"She's fine, but I've heard her mention you occasionally." This is pure nonsense. Guan Zezhongzhi wanted to explore the relationship between Lin Xiang and his daughter.

"Really How about Grandpa Qian Libing? I haven't seen him recently," Lin Xiang changed the topic, not wanting Satsuki and the others to know anything.

"Oh, Dad? There have always been demon apostles lingering around in the human world recently, so he and several elders from the Human World Defenders organization are all busy. You see, I'm also hiding in the demon realm, ready to catch the demon apostles at any time."

Speaking of that, Satsuki was a little angry, "You seemed to be very powerful just now, so why did you lead them to us before? You even deliberately pretended to be dead so that we could fight against them?"

Fortunately, the poison had no effect on Lin Xiang and Kuji. Otherwise, Satsuki would be flustered on what to do.

"That?" Chuuji also knew what Satsuki was talking about, so he explained patiently, "Instead of saying I lead them here, it's better to say that they would always pass-by here. Didnt you see that the demon apostle using the earth element never showed up when the needles were shot? He was underground and I could not locate him for a while, so I chose to wait and observe. Besides, I have advanced antidote, so even if anyone got the guy's poison, with just a drink before the toxins take effect, everything would be fine. I don't think the two of them showed the effects of poison yet, so I continued to stay, but I didn't expect you kids to force their companions out through poison."

Chuuji actually wanted to meet Lin Xiang. He had to know what kind of strength that young man had, which his father was very optimistic about. If they really could not beat them, then Chuuji would definitely take action. He just did not expect that the girl with sharp eyes was intelligent as she summoned the earth user out ahead of time, which saved Chuuji a lot of effort.

"By the way, you have already seen through my act, is that right, little girl? I really don't understand, everyone who works here has been deceived by me, why didn't you?" Chuuji looked at Kamiki.

"Heh~" Kamiki chuckled, "Indeed, if you don't look carefully, you and those demon realm workers seem to be cohesive as a whole, but by being observant, you will find that ordinary workers are thinking about other things, for example, how they will continue living in the future. The next time they head out, they will wonder if they will be killed by demons, so their eyes are not focused. However, you look at everyone carefully, and your eyes have not lost your hope of life like other workers. Especially when you took the money, I noticed your palms have no calluses. People who often carry things will pull ropes of baskets with their hands, reducing the weight of the heavy objects on the shoulders, so their palms will have calluses over time. This makes me absolutely sure that you are a special person."

"What frightening analytical power." Chuuji exclaimed, and the others nodded.

"Ive used to much magic power. Let's head back first. Those clans who are doing the missions are already in the Demon Realm Administrations."

"Wait, we are only two grasses away from completing the mission. We have collected twenty-eight trees with hard work, so how can we give up now?" Reidy said.

"That's right. Let's go find them. Huh?" At that time, Meiko looked at Fire Lotus, who was holding her hands while Dusty talked to her.

Her spirit aura was revealed. Meiko took another look at the man who was with her, but he did not notice it. Its all right now.

But, what should they do when they arrive at the Demon Realm Administrations?

Silent Water and the others also realized that and stood in front of Fire Lotus.

"Hug it." Kamiki handed her Hatch to Fire Lotus.

"No."

Hatch's eyes were dark. Its fur was not long, and it was dressed like a monkey puppet, which was adorable. Fire Lotus's gaze stayed on it for a while, and found it difficult to move away her attention.

"Fire Lotus, its not a problem if Nagisa and the others are the only ones here. But, there is an outsider. We cant let him discover your identity." Lin Xiang whispered in Fire Lotus's ear.

"Wont killing him instantly solve the problem?" Fire Lotus moved her body back. She was not used to Lin Xiang being so close to her.

"Well, look at his eyes. His eyes have been floating around us, hes a womanizer. I don't mind killing him." Kamiki looked indifferent.

"Please, no killing." Lin Xiang wiped his cold sweat. He was unsure if what the two said was true, "Hug Hatch, at least we can make him think it emitted the aura of a spirit. This can prevent unwanted accidents from happening, right?"

"Hmph, I don't want to hug it. But, it does seem easier to hug it than to kill someone." Fire Lotus hugged Hatch reluctantly, and Hatch was also very obedient. It might be due to the fact that Fire Lotus had the familiar spirit aura, which made it quietly being held in her arms without any resistance.

Half an hour later, in the bushes

"Haven't we found enough Moreau Grass?"

Reidy said no answer, just pushing the grasses aside to find something.

"Found it." Reidy stopped in front of a half-meter-tall grass. Grass of pale silver was in sight.

"It doesn't seem to be Moreau Grass, right?" Kaoru looked at the Nora Grass in front of her, doubting.

"I just want it." Reidy let out a lightning bolt, and cut the Nora Grass from the ground. She took a stalk and handed it to Fire Lotus.

Fire Lotus kept the Nora Grass in her pocket, still holding Hatch in her arms.
