What do you mean you also want to return to the world?

"You mean, the situation was too critical at the time, so you couldn't be sure if you had reached the standard, and you could only draw the full amount in one go?" Qi Fei looked at Shi Yan with a strange expression. "You really are brave."

"I didn't want this to happen either," Shi Yan said with a wry smile, then asked with some concern, "What harm will there be if I take too much?"

"It won't cause too much harm. After all, when Saitingry was developing this drug, they must have considered all sorts of situations. Even if you take the maximum dose, the consequences will still be within a controllable range." Qi Fei shrugged. "It just means you'll be more affected by the monsters. For example, you could already use the suppressor to block out the monsters' voices before, but because of the excessive amount of essence blood, the connection between you has deepened, so the suppressor's effect will naturally weaken."

No wonder Scarlet suddenly startled him; it turns out their connection has deepened again... This is not a good thing.

"Are there any better limiters?" Shi Yan asked. "I don't want to have a constant barrage of monster chattering in my head."

"The Sword-Wielding Bureau is out of options. The D3 model you're using now is already the best we have. After all, dealing with yokai isn't our specialty; that's the Saiten-ryo's job," Qi Fei said. "So if you want something better, you'll have to order it from the Saiten-ryo. We have a partnership with the Saiten-ryo; as long as you provide the corresponding points, they'll help you."

"Why are there points?"

"The demon hunters' internal currency system has been around for many years. Once you pass the assessment and become a formal demon hunter, you can earn points."

Shi Yan was startled: "Why is there an assessment? Didn't you say that as long as I could use the power of demons, I would already be considered a demon exorcist?"

"Even people who can drive have to pass a test to get a driver's license," Qi Fei patted Shi Yan on the shoulder. "But don't worry, the test won't be too difficult—at least not harder than taking blood from the monster just now. I'll go register you right now. You should rest well while that thing inside you is tired and doesn't have the energy to bother you."

"Tired?" Shi Yan asked. "Is the demon inside me tired?"

"Of course, you drew a whole vial of its blood," Qi Fei chuckled. "Do you know what essence blood is to a demon what we are to them?"

"What?"

Remove the word "blood".

Shi Yan's eyes widened: "Huh?"

"Yes, that's exactly what you think," Qi Fei said. "For monsters, taking their blood is like someone suddenly masturbating you when you're weak, and doing it several times until your legs are weak and you're seeing stars... That's why I just said the monster inside you must be holding a grudge against you. Because what's being lost isn't just power, but also dignity."

Upon hearing Qi Fei's words, Shi Yan immediately pictured Fei Hong's extremely angry face and couldn't help but shiver.

Qi Fei burst into laughter at this reaction.

"There's no need to be so nervous. The demon inside you isn't very strong and doesn't have any consciousness. Besides, demons don't have human form. Just think of yourself as a veterinarian. Veterinarians often extract semen from cattle and horses, right? Do you see them being afraid? That's the same principle."

Are they cattle or horses?

Shi Yan smiled bitterly to himself.

If it really were cattle or horses, that would be great.

But thinking about it carefully, it doesn't seem like there's anything to worry about. What's wrong with being ruthless and taking some of the essence blood from a monster that wants to possess you?

If he could kill her outright, Shi Yan would have finished her off long ago. Surely no one would actually mistake a monster for a woman, right? Really?

Shi Yan's mind was in turmoil. Ever since he transmigrated, he hadn't had a single peaceful day. Now, he was exhausted both physically and mentally, yet his brain was unusually excited. So even though Qi Fei told him to rest a little longer, he couldn't fall asleep quickly. He could only stare blankly at the pitch-black sky outside the window until the horizon began to lighten, before finally drifting off to sleep.

……

Meanwhile, Qi Fei left Shi Yan in the living room to rest and then returned to his room alone.

The moment the door closed, the relaxed expression on his face vanished, and he fell into deep thought.

Although he was mentally prepared, Qi Fei was still shocked when he saw that Shi Yan had completed the blood collection in one go.

Yes, in fact, the blood-drawing rituals of most priests at the Saitei-ryo are not completed in one go. They are basically engaged in a tug-of-war with the demons inside their bodies, taking a little bit each time, as long as the total amount is sufficient.

However, Qi Fei did not tell Shi Yan this. Instead, he intentionally guided Shi Yan, making him think that if he failed the first time, it would be difficult to succeed in the future—in order to make him give it his all.

And it actually worked!

It should be noted that the last person to complete the blood-drawing ritual in one go was the Master of Fate from the Zhaiting Dormitory.

However, Qi Fei didn't think Shi Yan was stronger than that Siming. After all, the demon inside Siming was at the Melting level. The demon inside Shi Yan, on the other hand, was just a minor demon that even the Gluttonous Mirror wouldn't consider, probably not even reaching the Remaining Skeleton level. This greatly limited Shi Yan's potential.

In short, Shiyan is now like a luxurious container used to hold the finest Moutai or 82 Lafite, but it's currently filled with Coca-Cola.

Or perhaps she was a stunningly beautiful woman, but in the end, she was taken by a pig.

This isn't a metaphor; I was literally taken advantage of by a pig.

This made Qi Fei wonder if Shi Yan's powerful demon uncle would be so angry that he would die suddenly if he knew. After all, even he felt a little regretful. If the demon inside Shi Yan's body were stronger, Shi Yan might have been able to reach the level of the Fate Master in Zhaitingliao.

Of course, this regret only lasted a short time. After all, no matter what, having a powerful demon living inside one's body is not a good thing, even for the spirit master of the Saiting Dormitory.

If given the choice, who wouldn't want to be an ordinary person?

The focus is not on the ordinary, but on the people.

Wait, what am I thinking about again?

Realizing that negative thoughts were creeping into his mind again, Qi Fei immediately pinched the bridge of his nose hard to clear his head with pain before continuing to work.

Next, we need to test just how far Shi Yan can go with that demonic power; that is, the test for demon hunters.

In fact, the assessment for demon hunters had specific tasks, and Qi Fei only needed to find one and have Shi Yan take the test. However, after witnessing Shi Yan complete the blood-taking ritual in one go, Qi Fei realized that the most basic assessment was no longer meaningful to him.

That being the case...

Qi Fei pulled out a brand new sheet of printed paper from a pile of live broadcast documents; it still had the scent of oil and ink stains on it.

Let's make it a bit more difficult for him.
