In the utility room on the other side, Mrs. Leopard, who had reappeared in her original form, was lying on the only wooden couch. There were still many bloodstains on her gray-white fur, but they had already healed. It was really shocking to look at.

After Lu Jinan's constant nourishment with elixirs these days and Chiyu's occasional transmission of magic power, at least her energy and spirit seemed to be much better, and she no longer exhaled more than she breathed out.

Ever since the mother came out, the baby refused to stay in the space. As soon as Chiyu threw it in, it started howling so hard that his spirit was shaken. He had no choice but to carry the baby out, and then added several more layers of barriers outside the room.

When the babbling baby clumsily crawled to Mrs. Leopard's side, she opened her eyes and used her tail to hook the child and hold it between her belly.

The baby's two big furry ears were drooping and it was rubbing its head gently against the hair on Mrs. Leopard's neck.

Akabane said emotionlessly, "You'd better not let it bite you, or the wound will open again."

Mrs. Leopard looked lovingly at the half-demon baby biting her tail, nudged its soft belly with her claws, and felt her heart melt.

"I am so grateful to you, my benefactor. If it weren't for you, my son and I might never see each other again."

Akabane stopped the mana he had been channeling today at his fingertips. He lowered his head to look at the happy crowd, his eyes calm. "So don't be so determined to die. No one can save you if you do that."

"And it shouldn't have been just ordinary villagers who should have killed you at that time. After all, cinnabar blood is not available in every village." Akabane bent down and picked up the cub who was lying on the ground, holding its tail with its hands and biting it.

He didn't want the wound he had just healed to be bitten again.

The little leopard was about to cry after its tail was separated from it. Akabane was prepared and took out a rattle and fiddled with it expressionlessly.

Seeing that the little leopard was immediately attracted by the new toy, he immediately stretched out his short arms like lotus roots to grab the rattle that was not far from him.

But Akabane acted as if on purpose, placing the rattle just within reach but out of reach of the little leopard, causing the little leopard to focus all its attention on his hand, its two yellow-green round pupils fixed on its prey.

Mrs. Bao saw that her child was immediately coaxed into submission, and she also calmed down to think about the difference. "There were indeed a lot more new faces in the village for a while." During that time, her husband was even always asked to take on some tasks with them.

He didn't tell her in detail, but he seemed a little overwhelmed every time he came back.

"I heard from a dog demon that she has a grudge against you, and she's behind all this."

"She's just a hook. I suspect there's someone behind this." A hand pushed in, and Lu Jinan raised his hand to greet them.

"We're done talking." Akabane greeted without any tone, causing Lu Jinan to look at him, wondering if this man's tone was normal or abnormal.

He said, "How is Mrs. Leopard's injury?"

"After a few more days of healing, you can transform into a human form and recover."

After answering his question subconsciously, Akabane suddenly felt like his bodyguard for a moment, but within a few seconds he thought his idea was ridiculous. However, when he thought about how he had been serving him all the time and still not getting any good results, he felt angry, so he crossed the door with his arms crossed and passed by Lu Jinan.

Lu Jinan waved his hands innocently and looked at the remaining monsters at the scene with a confused look on his face.

When Guapi was about to return to his room, Qingyi pushed the door open. When their eyes met, Qingyi looked away first.

"Master, how do you feel now? Is there anything wrong with your body?" Guapi saw that he was avoiding his gaze, but he asked about his injury first.

Qingyi's expression was calm. After his gaze moved to the bright red in the corners of his eyes, he sighed inwardly. Then he returned to his usual gentle appearance, squatting down to look him in the eye.

"Little idiot, Master once promised you that after you become my disciple, you will always be my disciple, Qingyi. No matter how you lived before, I will protect you with my life."

Guapi looked at the man in front of him who was solemnly swearing an oath, and a strange expression appeared on his face. He covered his forehead with the back of his hand.

"It's not even burning, why are you talking nonsense?"

"You like to curse as your master so much. It seems that I have spoiled you and made you disrespectful to your elders and young ones."

After saying this, Guapi was completely taken aback. Listening to what was said on the other side, he scratched his head, wondering if this person was really okay.

Someone who has never cared about these false reputations is now talking about these etiquette and hierarchy.

Looking at the child standing there in a daze, just staring at him intently, Qingyi sighed again for no reason.

It is his responsibility to raise his child like this.

"Go back to sleep, Master is fine."

Qingyi pushed the person to the thin bamboo curtain and stood still. Behind the curtain was Guapi'er's bedroom. The main room was a suite. When he first came, he was not arranged to sleep in the same room with him. The child could not sleep well, but he never mentioned it to him. He was too sensible and clever, so he subconsciously did not treat him as a child.

If it weren't for the thunderstorm that night, he would have thought of the thin bedding on his bed. When he went to check on him, he would have seen that the person was curled up in the corner, breathing heavily. He suddenly felt distressed and thought of his previous overprotection.

How did the little guy live when he was not dependent on him?

Qingyi stood in front of the bamboo curtain, his eyes lowered to the small figure below, his heart aching as if it were being eaten by ants. "Little idiot, Master suddenly feels a little uncomfortable. Can you come and sleep with Master tonight?"

He never made any demands on this apprentice because he knew that he had a very high set of standards for himself, whether it was taking care of himself or his high-intensity training every day. He knew from the beginning that this apprentice did not need his concern, so he was willing to keep him.

But just now, after hearing what they said, Qingyi felt that he was wrong. He shouldn't take it for granted that a sensible child could bear all this.

When Guapi heard that he was feeling unwell, he immediately circled around him, his face a little worried. "No way, Lu Jinan said that the elixir was of high quality. Logically, he should be fine."

Qingyi covered her lips and coughed a few times feeling a little guilty. When Guapi heard this, she immediately wanted to go find Lu Jinan. Fortunately, Qingyi reached out and held her in her arms. The warm body temperature in her arms was as warm as a small stove.

"Why are your hands and body temperature so cold?" Guapi frowned. The defensive state he had put up when he was hugged from behind was stimulated by the cold body temperature and slowly subsided.

Qing Yi suddenly felt very comfortable hugging someone like this, and her mood seemed to have improved a lot. "My body temperature has always been like this, don't worry."

"How can someone have such a low body temperature?" He muttered, but his voice became smaller and smaller, because the man's head was resting on his shoulder, and his cheek was rubbing against it. Guapi felt a little uncomfortable, and when he wanted to turn his head away, someone pinched his cheek and turned him back.

Qingyi felt the soft touch in his hand, then looked at the cute face that was somewhat in disbelief when he pinched it, and felt as if a piece of his heart melted.

So cute, I want to pinch his face and stroke his head. Why didn’t I realize before that my apprentice is so cute?

Seeing Qingyi seemed to be under a spell, Guapi'er's eyes showed more fear. He raised his hand and pinched his face hard, which had a somewhat perverted smile on it.

Qingyi screamed and immediately threw the man out.

The thrown out Guapi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Qingyi in front of him return to normal. He felt a little guilty when he saw the red marks on Qingyi's face left by his own strength. He first approached with a flattering smile and took the initiative to pull Qingyi's sleeve, "Master, I won't sleep with you today. After all, I'm still young. If your illness is over, I won't be able to recover."

Traitor!!!

Qingyi covered her cheek, turned around angrily and went back to her bed, no longer paying any attention to this traitor.

Fortunately, he felt a little sorry for the brat. Look at what he said. If he were in any other sect, he would have been expelled long ago.

Qingyi didn't even take off her outer clothes, buried herself in the quilt and never got up again.

Guapi ignored him at first. She lifted the bamboo curtain and went into her own little world. When she was about to undress, a hairband fell out of her arms.

Guapi picked it up from the floor, peeked through the bamboo curtain, and saw that the man's bedding was still motionless. He retracted his head and patted the non-existent dust on the headband with his hand.

You are so old, but you are still childish.
