Senior, I Was Really Wrong!

You He said with a triumphant smile, "Does it taste good... It's sweet... Wait... Wait a second?!!!"

"Huh??? It's sweet?!"

At first, You He didn't react at all to what was happening. Only halfway through his sentence did You He look at Jing Pu in front of him with terror.

Jing Pu pursed his lips and smiled, "Yeah, it's quite sweet."

In reality, it didn't taste sweet at all; it tasted like mold. However, it was a candy given by someone else, so Jing Pu didn't feel right saying it tasted terrible.

It was like going to someone's house for a meal. Even if the food was awful, you'd still smile and say it was delicious. You couldn't just flip the table, could you?

Jing Pu thought maybe the candy had been stored for too long and had gone bad. Thinking this, Jing Pu felt a bit of empathy. It seemed the Mortals on this continent lived very hard lives, unwilling to eat even one piece of candy, storing it for so long that it spoiled.

Meanwhile, You He was completely stunned. No... Impossible!!

Absolutely impossible!!

How could this person be completely fine?!

That was a Black Blood Soul Devouring Pill. Even a Tribulation Crossing cultivator wouldn't be unaffected after so long!

For a moment, You He was greatly alarmed and understood!!

He completely understood!!

This guy wasn't a normal person at all!!

He was a super expert, either late-stage Tribulation Crossing or peak Tribulation Crossing!!

It had to be this way. You He suddenly realized that this guy was pretending to be an ordinary person here just to toy with him, like a cat catching a mouse. It wouldn't kill it immediately but would play with it until it was bored before eating it!

This guy must be like that!!

You He was truly terrified now, trembling all over.

Seeing You He suddenly start trembling beside him, Jing Pu quickly said, "Look at you, you're trembling from hunger. Hurry up and eat something."

You He nodded frantically like a chick pecking at rice, his eyes filled with terror. In the next second, he immediately stuffed the bun in his hand into his mouth in a panic, afraid that if he was too slow, this big shot in front of him would slap him to death.

You He was very scared now. He didn't know what kind of way this big shot would toy with him next.

Just now, when You He looked at Jing Pu's smile, he felt it was bright and sunny. But now, looking at Jing Pu's smile, You He felt this big shot was more demonic than any demon!!

However, after stuffing a bun and chewing it twice, the expression on You He's face changed instantly. It was spoiled?!

Suddenly, You He's face changed. It... it really was playing with him!!

Eat it or not??

Of course, he had to eat it. If he didn't, he'd lose his life!

If he ate it, he might still have a chance to live. After all, judging by the current situation, this big shot hadn't shown any killing intent. If he refused to eat and angered him, he truly wouldn't be able to survive!

You He immediately stuffed buns into his mouth at an extremely fast speed. Two buns were quickly gone.

Seeing You He wolfing down the food, Jing Pu felt a pang of sympathy. How many days had this person not eaten? Jing Pu immediately took out everything edible and inedible from his Space Bag and placed it in front of You He.

At the same time, a voice sounded from behind Jing Pu. Turning around, he saw Ling Ju landing behind him, riding a Dragon Horse.

Ling Ju was still as radiant and beautiful as when they had parted, showing no signs of having fought. She held a white rabbit in her arms.

Upon seeing Ling Ju, Jing Pu suddenly asked with curiosity, "Did you find that Demonic Creature?!"

You He, who had just eaten two spoiled buns, really didn't want to eat any more of the new food Jing Pu had brought out. However, upon hearing Jing Pu's question, he frantically grabbed the food on the ground and stuffed it into his mouth again.

Ling Ju shook her head with some regret, "I didn't find it. That Demonic Creature seemed to have disappeared suddenly. Perhaps it ran away long ago..."

Jing Pu nodded slightly, feeling relieved. No matter what, it was good that the Demonic Creature was gone, so they wouldn't have to live in fear.

Looking at the white rabbit in Ling Ju's arms, Jing Pu asked curiously, "What's this?"

Speaking of the rabbit, Ling Ju smiled sweetly and handed it to Jing Pu, saying with a smile, "I found it on the way back. It was caught in a hunter's trap. Seeing how cute it was, I brought it back."

Jing Pu took the rabbit and examined it carefully from top to bottom, nodding seriously, "Its leg is injured. This rabbit is quite good."

Ling Ju smiled and was about to say something when.

Jing Pu said, "It has a lot of meat. It should be delicious spicy."

Ling Ju: "Uh???"

Seeing Ling Ju's astonished expression, Jing Pu chuckled, returned the rabbit to Ling Ju, and said, "Just kidding! How could I possibly eat it? We'll put some medicine on it when we get back and raise it."

Ling Ju blinked, pouting her red lips adorably. She feigned anger, but couldn't hide the exquisite smile gracing her face as she said coquettishly:

"Senior, really..."

After Ling Ju got the rabbit back, she suddenly noticed You He, sitting on the ground behind Jing Pu and frantically stuffing food into his mouth.

The moment she saw You He, Ling Ju instantly flinched back a step in shock.

A Demonic Creature?!!

Ling Ju was now absolutely certain that the one sitting behind Jing Pu was a Demonic Creature!!

Although she didn't know why it had a human appearance, lacked any demonic features, and had concealed its True Qi and Spiritual Power, Ling Ju could clearly sense from such close proximity that it was indeed a Demonic Creature!!

A Demonic Creature at the peak of the Spirit Transformation stage, the very same one that had condensed the Tribulation Crossing thunderclouds!!

How... how could it be here?!

And... what's its relationship with... with Senior?

Jing Pu looked at Ling Ju's flustered expression. After a moment of surprise, he realized what was happening. He immediately smiled at Ling Ju and said:

"This is a villager who ran out of the mountain. He's a bit ugly, but quite pitiful. He seems to have been scared silly by what just happened."

Huh??

Ling Ju looked at Jing Pu in astonishment, not understanding what he was saying.

But... just then, You He, who was sitting on the ground, suddenly burst into tears.

An adult's breakdown can sometimes happen in an instant.

As You He ate, he felt increasingly wronged and pathetic. He was the Vice Pavilion Master of Three Rivers Pavilion, usually majestic and imposing, yet now he was being toyed with like a monkey by humans, made a spectacle for their amusement.

Most importantly, he had no idea if he would live or die next.

That was bad enough, but when Jing Pu suddenly mentioned his appearance, You He couldn't hold back any longer. He could have been considered a handsome man among the Demon Race, but after absorbing that Auspicious Qi, he had become this ghastly sight.

You He didn't want to pretend anymore, didn't want to play along. He threw away the food in his hand, which was either moldy or spoiled, and with a plop, knelt directly on the ground, sobbing loudly with snot and tears streaming down his face:

"Senior, I was really wrong. I'll never dare to come again. It wasn't easy for me to get to where I am today, through thick and thin. Senior, please stop playing with me. I truly know my mistake, don't mess with me anymore!!"

What the hell???

Jing Pu flinched back half a step, startled by this sudden turn of events. What is going on here??
