"Eh? You're not staying the night at home before coming back?" Bian Chunchou had been about to sit in meditation and cultivate when he poked his head out and saw a huge figure walk in. Looking closely, he saw it was Chen Zui-Zui, so he immediately turned to call Wen Xu-Xu out.
"Mother disliked me and kicked me out." After saying that, Chen Zui handed over the things and message his mother had asked him to deliver. "Keep these safe."
Wen Xu-Xu and Bian Chunchou: ...Forget it. It wasn't as though this was their first day knowing him.
"Hey, why are you carrying that little branch again? Those knotted scars on it are pretty frightening." Bian Chunchou pointed at the little branch Chen Zui held for guidance.
Chen Zui raised the branch in his hand. "Frightening? This was snapped off my mother's true form. Only by holding it can you freely enter and leave my home. Do you want some? I can snap off a piece for you."
"N-No, no need."
Chen Zui put it away regretfully.
"Eh? True form? Your mother is a Demon Cultivator?" Bian Chunchou finally realized it belatedly. "Then doesn't that make you a Half-Demon?" So that was why Chen Zui-Zui's hair grew with such abnormal vigor?!
"Yeah. Didn't I mention it? My mother is a Tiger Ghost Demon Vine that took human form. She's incredibly powerful." Chen Zui spoke blandly.
"...That powerful?" Just hearing that name, it sounded like one ruthless spirit plant.
"Of course. My mother's cultivation was comparable to the Body Integration Realm."
Bian Chunchou could not help counting on his fingers. Chen Zui-Zui had a mother at the Body Integration Realm, Wen Xu-Xu had a master at the Body Integration Realm, and he had a bargain-bin father at the Body Integration Realm.
