Feeling the demon energy draining from its body, it looked at the girl.
She wanted to get closer, but she didn't dare, moving forward with timid caution.
It leaped down from the railing and walked toward her.
Watching the light gradually brighten on the girl's face, it thought, Maybe... this isn't so bad.
And so, it stayed by the girl's side.
Perhaps it was just a passing whim.
But until it grew tired of her, it was willing to let the girl see it and to guide her.
This life was new to it, and rather interesting.
It looked at Xiao Xiao.
At the chance to meet a human who could see it, a glimmer seemed to pass through its eyes.
If it had met this human before the girl, it probably would have spent more time with him.
After all, there really weren't many humans who could see demons anymore.
But it had met the girl first.
If it left, this silly girl would cry, wouldn't she?
Just thinking about it was a hassle.
It lay lazily in the girl's arms and glanced up at the white demon with red markings on the human's shoulder.
Besides, that human already had a demon with him.
Maybe more than one.
It could smell more than one trace of demon energy.
That made it feel a little wary.
What a bold human.
It looked away.
"Um, Master Xiao?"
When quiet had settled around them again, Chen Xi spoke hesitantly.
She remembered her father calling this man that earlier. "Was Huan Huan really answering your questions?"
"What did you mean by what you just asked?"
"What else did Huan Huan say?"
"Can you understand Huan Huan?"
The girl's questions came one after another, her voice growing more urgent.
