Please Spare My Life, Disciple of the Demon Lord

"……what?"

Lin Shuyu's slightly opened mouth suddenly closed, his eyebrows wrinkled into a ball, "You?...Uncle Jiang...She?..."

Lin Shuyu was unable to form a sentence for a moment. Recalling the scene where Jiang Tingwan picked up food for Mu Yunzhong just now, he touched his chin as if thinking, but couldn't figure it out.

"Could it be that the head master gave Uncle Jiang a death order to let you go?"

Lin Shuyu thought about it again and again, and could only think that it was the head master's fault, so he simply stopped delving into it and solemnly patted Mu Yunzhong on the shoulder as a senior brother.

"Anyway, you have now escaped from the clutches of Uncle Jiang, all thanks to that little Junior Sister. If it weren't for her coming, the head uncle wouldn't have had the chance to ask Uncle Jiang to let you leave Tingfeng Court and practice with us."

"Junior sister?" It was the first time that Mu Yun heard the news.

Lin Shuyu also spoke in a lower voice, as if he was discussing some secrets. "You may not know yet, but in order to let her last disciple learn the Three Yuan Technique, Xu Yushan of Fuyunxuan reluctantly gave up and let her become the disciple of our head master. She arrived at the Sanyuan Sect yesterday, and the apprenticeship ceremony is being held today. She will practice with us at Liuhua Peak in the future."

Mu Yunzhong frowned slightly. He had been concentrating on testing Jiang Tingwan these days and had actually ignored the news from the Xuan Realm. The fact that Master Xu Yushan would make such a decision could only mean that the San Yuan Jue was indeed extremely mysterious.

Seeing Mu Yunzhong lost in thought, Lin Shuyu suddenly realized that the headmaster was still waiting for them. He immediately patted Mu Yunzhong on the shoulder and reminded him, "Oh! I forgot the time while talking to you. I was not trying to trick Uncle Jiang just now. The headmaster is indeed waiting for us. Let's go!"

After saying that, Lin Shuyu remembered the important business and walked ahead to lead the way.

Mu Yun finally looked at Lin Shuyu's back, then glanced in the direction of Tingfeng Courtyard before following him.

On the other side, in the master bedroom of Tingfeng Courtyard, a red light fell to the ground and turned into a little fox, and Jiang Tingwan, who was no longer under surveillance, immediately revealed his true form.

"Finally he left! It's okay for other things, but I'm tired enough just pretending to eat these days! And this guy is also a good cook."

Jiang Tingwan held the bowl full of rice and gobbled it up ravenously. He took out the fish bone in his mouth with his hands. After taking a look at the sauce of the braised fish, he happily poured it on the rice, stirred it and put it into his mouth.

Sui Jiu, who was standing opposite him, twisted his eyebrows in confusion, "Is it really that exaggerated?"

Jiang Tingwan chewed the food in his mouth and nodded continuously, "If I say so, even if Mu Yunzhong doesn't practice Taoism, he can open a restaurant and become famous all over the world." Jiang Tingwan suddenly had an idea, "Why don't I guide Mu Yunzhong to be a chef? Why practice Taoism? In this way, as his master, can I sit back and enjoy the fruits of his labor?"

The sound of Jiang Tingwan's calculations almost jumped onto Suijiu's face, but Suijiu still had an expression of incomprehension. He just stared blankly at the greasy rice grains hanging from Jiang Tingwan's lips, extremely puzzled.

"It's a pity that you are just a system, otherwise you would be able to taste such delicious food." Jiang Tingwan said while eating, not noticing the little fox opposite. His eyes staring at the plate of fish changed from confusion to curiosity.

So after a sizzling sound, Suijiu quickly stretched out his tongue and licked the plate of fish on the table.

"Um?!……"

Along with this exclamation, a red light suddenly appeared in front of him, and the little fox opposite turned into a girl in red.

"Wow... Is this what you humans eat?"

A pair of big, lively eyes were expressing an unprecedented shock. She was in her prime, with cherry lips, jade teeth and skin as white as snow. Her big eyes were rolling around, and her blue-purple pupils were like two gems of different colors. The original childish female voice finally matched a suitable face.

This system is really a little brat!

Jiang Tingwan's outstretched chopsticks were suspended in the air. Was this meal so delicious that it exposed the system's true colors?

Suijiu exclaimed: "So your food is so delicious?"

Jiang Tingwan was extremely surprised and suspicious: "You actually have a human form? And you can eat? Aren't you a system?"

Just as Jiang Tingwan finished exclaiming, Suijiu on the opposite side had already licked the fish plate clean.

"I never said I don't have a human form. I just told you that I am a system that accompanies you in traveling through the book."

Jiang Tingwan thought about it carefully, and then paused, "Is there any difference?"

After saying this, Suijiu had already finished the other dish.

He put the disk down from his face and licked his lips. "It makes no difference! There's no need to delve into it."

"..." Jiang Tingwan frowned, "Okay, the rest is not important. What's important now is that you ate... all my meals for the day..."

When Jiang Tingwan finished speaking, his attention wandered again, and he gritted his teeth with every word he spoke.

This was the last meal Mu Yunzhong cooked. What should she eat now?

Sui Jiu looked at the shiny clean plates on the table, shrank his neck guiltily and was about to disappear, but was caught by Jiang Tingwan's quick eyes and hands.

"Eat and run! Is that how you work?"

Sui Jiu: "I'm sorry, this is also my first time trying your human food. I didn't expect it to be so delicious! No wonder you always say that food is the most important thing for people."

Jiang Tingwan squinted his eyes and looked at Sui Jiu again and again, breathing heavily through his nostrils, as if he was angry.

Seeing her like this, Sui Jiu quickly said, "At worst, I'll compensate you."

Jiang Tingwan insisted: "How are you going to compensate?"

Suijiu: "Answer you a key question!"

Jiang Tingwan firmly rejected it: "No!"

"Then what do you want?" Sui Jiu looked helpless, like a child who had gotten into trouble outside.

Jiang Tingwan's angry expression instantly turned into a polite and kind one after hearing this. He took the opportunity to put his arm around Sui Jiu's shoulders and compromised reluctantly: "How about this, lend me a little more strength to defend yourself, just like last time."

Jiang Tingwan blinked his eyes, his eyes full of joy at the prospect of success. Unexpectedly, Suijiu immediately stood up and said firmly, "No! You can only rely on your own strength to protect yourself. If I help you, it would be cheating."

Suijiu just realized that Jiang Tingwan just wanted to use this opportunity to cheat for the golden medal of immunity from death again.

"You're stubborn again, aren't you?" Jiang Tingwan looked at her with a threatening look, which was not surprising.

OK, the second time I failed to play the system!

Expected.

After his "conspiracy" was exposed, Jiang Tingwan stopped bullying the children and could only take a bite of the remaining rice in his bowl. Fortunately, he had poured some fish sauce on it, so the fish aroma was still there.

“But…” Sui Jiu on the other side softened his heart again, “If you can practice again with this body, you are not completely a mortal.”

"But I don't know how..." Jiang Tingwan just said it, and then he seemed to suddenly remember something, "You mean, there is an opportunity to learn right now?"

Cang Shuzi organized inner disciples to practice the San Yuan Jue, and he taught them personally, which meant that she could also attend and learn.

Sui Jiu pouted without comment, not daring to influence Jiang Tingwan's choice.

"But I just sent Mu Yunzhong away, and now I'm chasing after him again..." Jiang Tingwan thought about it seriously and felt that it was not very reliable.

But when he thought about it, if he had to rely entirely on Mu Yunzhong's "change of heart" to save his life, would it be too passive? If he continued to be like an ordinary person with no ability to protect himself, it would be a dangerous thing in itself.

Rather than sit back and wait for death, it is better to take the initiative.

Anyway, it's not just her and Mu Yunzhong. Cang Shuzi already knows that her skills have declined greatly. Even if she goes to Liuhua Peak, he will help her cover it up. By then, she can just sit in under the name of supervision, and she can learn how to practice to protect herself. She can also promote the relationship between Mu Yunzhong and Mu Qingge from a close distance.

Isn’t it killing two birds with one stone?
