A Useless Person's Rise to Power: The Demon King's Addiction to Pampering

In the world of assassins, whoever wins lives, and whoever loses dies.

In other words, Fuling Yue will not go easy on them like she did today, and will show absolutely no mercy when she strikes!

Therefore, they are rivals.

Feng Jiutian simply didn't want to be this opponent; she found it troublesome, so she didn't respond to Fuling Yue's words.

Fuling Yue didn't take it seriously. Regardless of whether Feng Jiutian responded to him or not, he would continue to regard Feng Jiutian as an opponent, or perhaps not just an opponent, but also an enemy.

In the competition among assassins, it's a matter of life and death.

Presumably, the battle on the other side had ended as well. At that moment, a woman dressed in blue walked in from outside the door and said softly, "Please come with me, victor."

Feng Jiutian glanced at Fuling Yue, then followed the woman in blue without looking back.

Fuling Yue licked the blood from the corner of her mouth, completely unconcerned about Feng Jiutian's attitude, still smiling, the madness in her eyes undiminished.

From the very first glance, Fuling Yue could smell a similar scent on Feng Jiutian. She never expected... that they really were kindred spirits!

Fuling Yue's smile remained unchanged, yet it sent a chill down one's spine. She moved her eyes and silently mouthed a gesture.

kill!

……

"Please rest here for an hour, young lady, and prepare for the next performance."

The woman in blue led Feng Jiutian to a secret room, where she immediately sensed a strong elemental aura.

After bringing Feng Jiutian there, the woman in blue left. Only then did Feng Jiutian notice that a little girl who looked only seven or eight years old was already sitting in the secret room, smiling at her.

"Hey, hello big sister."

The little girl smiled and waved to Feng Jiutian, her round face looking adorable, her two long braids swinging back and forth at her feet.

Although she looked like a little girl, Feng Jiutian dared not underestimate her. She knew that the news she had just received was that this seemingly harmless little girl had defeated a celestial master!

Between the Imperial Tutor and the Immortal Tutor lies the Spiritual Tutor, a huge gap. Even though Feng Jiutian won against Fuling Yue, it was still a difficult situation for Fuling Yue to perform at her best, and she even tore two holes in her sleeves.

But the little girl in front of me seemed to have won very easily. She wasn't disheveled at all, and she was eating while smiling brightly.

"Hello."

Feng Jiutian spat out two words in a distant manner, then sat down to meditate without responding to the little girl again.

Seeing that Feng Jiutian ignored her, the little girl stuck out her tongue in boredom, turned her head away, and shook her head as if looking at something.

"Feng Jiutian!"

Just then, Jiuyao, inside the Void Spirit Cauldron, suddenly shouted, "She's a demonic beast!"

Ok?

Feng Jiutian's expression hardened, and he closed his eyes again to transmit his voice: "There shouldn't be many magical beasts that can transform into human form, right? Could there be a mistake?"

"No mistake! I know I'm a magical beast! Her aura might fool others, but it can't fool me!"

Jiuyao's voice was somewhat exasperated, as if she was annoyed that Feng Jiutian did not trust her.

"Can you tell how strong she is?" Feng Jiutian asked.

"Tch." Jiuyao scoffed disdainfully, "Much weaker than me! But I can't tell what his true form is, though his aura seems to originate from the same source as mine."

Even without seeing Jiu Yao's appearance, Feng Jiutian could imagine Jiu Yao's arrogant look at this moment, and couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.

However, she also heard Jiu Yao say that the little girl's aura was from the same source as Jiu Yao's. Does this mean that she can find out Jiu Yao's background?

When the old man entrusted the Nine Luminaries to her, he had already said that the origin of the Nine Luminaries was unknown. The book that the giant tree turned into only indicated that the Nine Luminaries were ancient Taotie, without any other specific explanations. She would have to find out for herself.

"Do you want to say hello to her?" Feng Jiutian looked at the little girl and said to Jiu Yao, "Since she comes from the same source as you, she might know something."

"Hmm... let me think about it."

After that, Jiuyao hid inside the Void Spirit Cauldron and didn't make a sound. Feng Jiutian could understand that it was like being close to home and feeling apprehensive. A rootless plant suddenly taking root was bound to feel a little uncomfortable and unaccustomed to it.

What if that little girl really knows the reason for Jiu Yao's origin? Jiu Yao must be conflicted.

After a long while, Feng Jiu finally heard Jiu Yao's somewhat incoherent voice say, "Let's meet him."

"it is good."

Feng Jiutian responded to Jiuyao, stood up, and raised her hand to set up a barrier to block the eyes that were trying to probe. Having reached the level of an Imperial Tutor, and with Feng Jiutian's divine sense already powerful enough to rival that of a God Venerable, no one dared to be so audacious as to come and test her.

The little girl looked at Feng Jiutian with confusion and curiosity about what he was going to do.

After Feng Jiutian finished setting up the barrier, he turned to the little girl and said, "This may be a bit offensive, but it concerns my friend. She has some questions for you."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Jiu Yao emerged from the Void Spirit Cauldron.

"you you!"

The little girl bristled the moment she saw Jiuyao, her two long braids sticking up, and she turned and ran away, shouting urgently, "Don't catch me! Don't catch me, I won't go back!"

Jiu Yao's face darkened, and with a snort, he reached out and grabbed the little girl, pressing her down onto the stool. The difference in their strength was too great, and the little girl seemed completely unable to resist Jiu Yao.

"Who's going to grab you? Sit tight!" Seeing the little girl trying to move again, Jiu Yao coldly scolded her.

The little girl immediately sat up straight, looking aggrieved.

Feng Jiutian watched from the side and thought that Jiu Yao's childish face looked quite convincing when he put on a serious expression.

"Then...you won't arrest me?" the little girl asked tentatively.

"Don't arrest them."

Jiuyao replied impatiently, frowning as he said, "Why would I arrest you for no reason? You're not as good as food."

"I'm glad they didn't arrest me." The little girl patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

"but……"

Jiuyao hesitated for a moment, then looked the little girl up and down before asking, "Where are you from?"

The little girl stiffened, and her gaze shifted from avoidance to suspicion in an instant. She tentatively asked Jiuyao, "You...you're not from there?"

Jiuyao remained silent, staring at the little girl with a deep and unfathomable expression.

"Cough cough."

The little girl coughed twice, her head lowered as if she was thinking about something. Jiu Yao grabbed the little girl and turned to Feng Jiu Tian, ​​saying, "Shall we form a contract with her?"

"Huh?" Feng Jiutian pointed at the little girl: "Her?"

"No way." Feng Jiutian shook his head, rejecting Jiuyao's suggestion, and said indifferently, "Contracting one of you is already difficult enough for me. If I were to have another one, would I even survive?"

"you dislike me?"

Before Jiuyao could speak, the little girl exploded, glaring at Feng Jiutian: "How dare you look down on me!"

"Snapped!"

Jiuyao slapped the little girl to extinguish her anger, then turned around and argued with Feng Jiutian, still unconvinced: "How did I make you go through all that trouble? Haven't I helped you a lot? I was the one who saved you when you were surrounded and attacked a while ago!"
