Chapter 58 You actually didn't choose me?

At least with Feng Jing, who is clearly a woman, by his side, no one will doubt that Bai Haochen is a girl anymore.

"Strange, we've been walking for so long, how come we haven't seen a single demon?"

Li Xin, who went to the front to scout the way, finally voiced her question.

Before she came, she had consulted many experienced people. Logically speaking, demons should have come to wipe them out by now. However, they hadn't seen a single demon along their journey.

"Could it be that it was hidden, which is why we didn't see it?"

When this guess was made, everyone except Feng Jing became vigilant, fearing that the hidden demons might catch them off guard.

"There are no demons."

Feng Jing, holding the staff, gently shook his head.

"At least, there isn't a single demon within a hundred miles of us."

Upon learning that there were no demons around them, none of them felt any joy.

After all, the requirement for entry is to slay five demons. If they can't even encounter a single demon, how are they supposed to complete the mission?
"What should we do then? Will we not encounter any demons until the time runs out?"

"What's going on? The demons aren't coming to find us?"

"I'm afraid of encountering too many demons, and I'm also afraid of not encountering any at all..."

After a long time, the Haoyue City squad, which hadn't even seen half of the demon race, was getting speechless.

Of course, those who secretly protected them and ensured their safety were speechless, because this situation was extremely rare.

After failing to understand the reason, several pairs of eyes turned to Feng Jing.

"Don't look at me, I really have concealed my aura!"

"However, if you don't believe me, I can back down one more time, and I guarantee it will be better than last time."

Not wanting to take the blame, Feng Jing once again concealed his presence.

Ironically, after she disguised herself as an ordinary person, demons actually approached her.

Feng Jing: ...Well, now I really can't clear my name.

Although a considerable number of demons arrived, Feng Jing remained a healing priest throughout. Their battles against the demons were still resounding victories, with the fifth-tier Bai Haochen displaying exceptional skill.

After eliminating a large number of demons, they not only completed their mission but also obtained a considerable amount of magic crystals and demon corpses.

The mission was completed with ease, and Feng Jing was just about to strike while the iron was hot and take Bai Haochen to see Bai Yue and the others, when unfortunately, someone came along to spoil the fun.

"What's wrong, Auntie? Who are you taking me to see?"

Bai Haochen had already guessed that it was Bai Yue, who had been away from home for several years, because Feng Jing was taking it so seriously, so he was very much looking forward to it.

But Feng Jing shook his head. "I forgot, now is not the time."

"I can't take you with me."

Upon hearing this, Bai Haochen was somewhat disappointed, but he quickly concealed it.

"Okay, then I'll wait a bit longer."

Feng Jing naturally noticed Bai Haochen's dejected expression and cursed Long Xingyu hundreds of times in his heart.

I can't figure out what this guy is doing following me around all day; he's such a nuisance.

Disliking Long Xingyu for being in the way, Feng Jing started writing to Feng Xiu again to complain, asking Feng Xiu to find something for Long Xingyu to do.

At the same time, Feng Jing also explained that she was prepared to reveal Bai Haochen's true identity and let them prepare.

With his plan to secretly take Bai Haochen to Heart City foiled, Feng Jing had no choice but to return to the human territory with them.

Feeling a bit down, Feng Jing started doing something and explained the competition's procedures to them.

"Those of us who have obtained admission tickets need to get to the Holy City as soon as possible to participate in the preliminary round."

"The preliminary rounds will ultimately select ten of the strongest individuals from each of the six temples to participate in the finals."

"And these sixty spots are already a foregone conclusion, barring any unforeseen circumstances."

"The sixty people who will participate in the final will be drawn into the competition, so luck will be very important in the final."

"The top three finalists can choose a teammate who is not among the top three before the Demon Hunter Roulette match." "The remaining four team members will have to rely on the roulette wheel. Whether they can be matched with suitable teammates is entirely a matter of luck."

……

"Auntie, you'll choose me then, right?"

After listening to the explanation, Bai Haochen immediately looked at Feng Jing, wanting to reserve a spot with Feng Jing.

Looking at Bai Haochen's nervous and expectant expression, Feng Jing shook his head mischievously.

"Auntie!"

Bai Haochen immediately became anxious and even got jealous.

"You didn't choose me???"

"Then who do you choose? Who's more important than me?"

Feng Jing found it amusing and successfully amused Bai Haochen, which immediately improved her mood.

"you're so dumb!"

"I'm not choosing you. Tell me, is there any possibility that I simply can't choose you?"

"But you, Auntie, are definitely number one..."

Under Feng Jing's gaze, which looked at him like he was an idiot, Bai Haochen shut his mouth.

"I'd be number one, sure, but you'd be in the top three!"

"How to choose among the top three?"

"Then it's fine if I'm not in the top three."

Bai Haochen muttered something to himself, since he was going to be in the same group as Feng Jing anyway. Rankings and such didn't matter at all.

"Bai Haochen! What did you say?"

"I didn't say anything! Oh, I meant that the top three might be Brother Yang and Cai'er."

Bai Haochen was incredibly quick-witted and immediately brought up Sheng Cai'er and Yang Wenzhao. Indeed, Sheng Cai'er, Yang Wenzhao, and Han Yu all had the potential to push Bai Haochen out of the top three.

"That's not necessarily true. You're very capable."

In Feng Jing's opinion, no matter how they compete, Bai Haochen will definitely be among the top three.

Who told her to raise Bai Haochen from a baby to the present day! Naturally, he's the most outstanding child besides herself.

Bai Haochen didn't say anything more, but he had already made up his mind.

If he concedes defeat at the start of the final rounds, he'll be squeezed out of the top three.

Fortunately, he only thought it to himself. If he had actually said it out loud, not to mention Feng Jing, even the stalker Long Xingyu who had been following him all this time would have given him a good beating.

Aimei City Holy Alliance Auction House.

After traveling for several days, the Haoyue City team chose to rest in the nearby Aimei City and replenish their equipment for the upcoming competition.

"Auntie, what are we doing here? We don't seem to have anything we need to prepare, do we?"

When Feng Jing brought him to the auction house, Bai Haochen was still completely bewildered.

"The demonic corpse in your storage ring isn't going to make a move, or it'll ruin your Forget-Me-Not ring."

Feng Jing said irritably, but glared at Hao Yue.

Haoyue, who was obediently nestled on Bai Haochen's shoulder eating dried fish, was stunned by this glare and looked at Feng Jing with her big eyes.

"Just eat yours. You'll be quiet when you can't eat anymore."

Feng Jing particularly disliked Hao Yue's mannerisms, but she herself didn't realize that she was noticeably nicer to Hao Yue, who was always acting cute.

After all, it's already quite remarkable that she didn't hate Haoyue after regaining her memories.
