"Huh? I have one too? Where is it? I don't see it." Lu Jinyan's mind was indeed blank at this moment, so the question she asked was a bit thoughtless.

"It's inside your belly, of course you can't see it. Close your eyes, feel it with your heart, and you'll find it." The system sighed. Even if it was stupid, it had to put up with it. After all, she was its host.

Following the system's instructions, Lu Jinyan closed her eyes and focused on sensing. After a short while, she indeed sensed the presence of the demon core. Good heavens, she had never known this before.

The main reason is that she hasn't quite accepted the fact that she's a demon. It was only when the topic of demon cores came up today that she remembered.

The system sighed helplessly. "Look at this," it thought, "this is her host."

"Aunt Ru..." Mo Xuan looked at the unconscious Mo Chen, frowning, unsure of what to say.

"It's alright, I knocked him out. Xuan'er, come back with me. Today's matter needs to be handled by your mother. You've been away from home for so long, it's time to go back." Bai Ru turned to look at Mo Xuan, while Lu Jinyan hid behind Mo Xuan, somewhat at a loss.

The old woman had such a strong presence that it made her feel inexplicably afraid.

"Aunt Ru, I..." Mo Xuan was about to say something when Bai Ru interrupted him: "I'll give you an hour to pack up. Come with me in an hour. Xuan'er, don't make me do it myself!"

After Bai Ru finished speaking, she glanced at Lu Jinyan, who was hiding behind Mo Xuan, gave a light snort, picked up Mo Chen from the ground, and left. Lu Jinyan's mouth was so full of anger that it could almost fit a fist.

This little old lady is too fierce! Mo Chen, such a big, tall man, was lifted up by her, looking so delicate...

After Bai Ru left, the atmosphere in the courtyard suddenly became somewhat heavy. Chu Li was too badly injured, and Lu Jinyan didn't have time to think about anything else. She could only bandage his wounds first, while Chu Chu helped him with red eyes.

After treating the wounds, she went to treat Mo Xuan's wounds. Once both of their wounds were treated, Lu Jinyan went to the system to exchange for two pills for them to take. It has to be said that anything produced by the system must be a treasure. Just a short while after taking the medicine, Chu Li's complexion looked much better.

Chu Chu was responsible for taking care of Chu Li in his room, while Lu Jinyan was in Mo Xuan's room taking care of Mo Xuan. Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere was somewhat awkward.

"Yan'er, I..."

"You don't need to say anything, I know. It's okay, you can go!" Lu Jinyan wasn't too upset because this wasn't something she could decide. She couldn't beat someone like Bai Ru.

It's probably unlikely that she'll come along, since Bai Ru doesn't seem to like her much. But it's okay, if she can't go with him, she can go find him!

Anyway, she had the system, so at worst she could just secretly follow them after they left. It wasn't a big problem, so there was no sadness about parting.

"Yanyan, I don't want to leave. I promised you I wouldn't leave, but I... Yanyan, please wait for me, okay? I'll come back to you after I go back and settle things!"

Mo Xuan looked somewhat anxious. He was afraid that Lu Jinyan would think he had broken his promise. He had promised her he wouldn't leave, but given the current situation, he had to leave.

Even if he wasn't injured, he couldn't beat Aunt Ru's cultivation level, let alone now. Although he knew Aunt Ru wouldn't hurt him, what about Yan'er?

She has no cultivation, so if Aunt Ru wanted to do something to her, it would be incredibly easy. He couldn't risk Yan'er's safety, so he had no choice but to leave with Aunt Ru, go back and deal with things as soon as possible, and then come back to find her.

"Oh, it's alright, don't worry about going back!" Lu Jinyan patted Mo Xuan's shoulder, indicating that it was nothing to worry about.

An hour passed in the blink of an eye, and Mo Xuan finally left with Bai Ru, though his constant turning back to look at her was somewhat amusing.

"Xuan'er, are you in love with her?" Bai Ru asked with a smile, looking at Mo Xuan who was reluctant to part.

"Yes, Aunt Ru, Yan'er is the woman I love!" Mo Xuan did not hide it; they would find out about his feelings for Lu Jinyan sooner or later anyway.

"She's just a lowly demon. If you like her, just talk to your mother and bring her back to the manor as a concubine." Bai Ru led Mo Xuan and the others onto the flying vehicle and then left.

“Aunt Ru, Yan’er is the person I love. I will marry her as my wife, not a concubine!” Mo Xuan frowned upon hearing Bai Ru’s words.

"Xuan'er, are you confused? She's just a lowly demon of the lowest rank. You are the son of the Demon King, and you will inherit the Demon King's position in the future. Even if your future wife isn't a female demon with high cultivation, she will be the daughter of a prestigious family. It's impossible for her to be a wild girl with neither cultivation nor family background!"

Bai Ru rarely put on a stern face. She had raised Mo Xuan herself, and he was practically like a mother to her. Her thoughts were almost identical to the Demon King's, and she would never allow Mo Xuan to marry Lu Jinyan.

“Aunt Ru, Yan’er isn’t some wild girl. She has a name, Lu Jinyan. And she’s not without cultivation; she does have some, just a shallow one!”

"Aunt Ru, I've already said I don't want that position. I don't want any powerful female demons or prestigious families. I only want Yan'er. If she hadn't saved me this time, you probably wouldn't be seeing me again, Aunt Ru."

Mo Xuan's tone was also not very good. He would not allow anyone to belittle Lu Jinyan, including her closest relatives. His Yan'er was very good and excellent!

"She saved you. If you want to thank her, then just give her some benefits. There's no need to risk your whole life. If you feel that being a concubine is too much for her, then take her in as a secondary wife. However, this can only be done after you officially get married. Although our demon realm doesn't have that many rules, it's still a bit inappropriate to let a secondary wife enter the family before the primary wife has even entered.

Look at your brother. Although he has many concubines, the positions of these two secondary wives are always vacant. Why? Because he hasn't married yet. So these positions remain empty. Even if he likes his concubines and wants to promote them to secondary wives, he has to wait until he gets married.

Bai Ru was somewhat dissatisfied with Mo Xuan's attitude. Everyone said that the fox clan was good at bewitching, but she had just seen that it was clearly a little flower fairy who had only recently transformed into human form. How long had it been, yet it had already bewitched Xuan'er so completely?

How dare he presume to marry her as his principal wife? Not only would she disagree, but even the Demon King and the Lord would not allow it.
