Quick Wear: Oops, the mission target is crying again

Chapter 1177 The Demon Hunter's Great Demon 22

Such a mirror costs more than two thousand taels of silver.

Although Xie Huaiyu is the second son of the Xie family, this amount of money is not a small sum for him.

However, when he saw the mirror at the auction house, he thought of Ling Yao.

Although he hadn't sensed the presence of any demons from her in the past two years, Xie Huaiyu still had a bad feeling.

On a whim, I took a picture of the mirror, but I haven't been able to find a suitable opportunity or excuse to give it to him.

This promotion of Lingyao to Earth-level Demon Slayer is the best opportunity for her.

What's more, he had just sensed that demonic aura emanating from her again.

This is too strange.

So Xie Huaiyu handed the bronze mirror to Lingyao and gave her some instructions.

"Once we get back, thoroughly check all the items you have on you and see if there's anything amiss."

Lingyao looked at the demon-catching mirror that Xie Huaiyu handed her, though she didn't know if the mirror would be of any use to the binding order.

However, we must also guard against the possibility that the bondage might actually reveal its true form.

So Lingyao accepted it.

However, she didn't take it for nothing.

After asking Xie Huaiyu the price, he immediately took out two thousand taels of silver notes and gave them to him, along with two talismans.

Xie Huaiyu was still a little dazed as he held the silver in his hand.

Where did you get so much money?

Lingyao remained silent, as if she couldn't say anything more.

Xie Huaiyu was a sensible person, so he didn't ask any more questions.

However, I couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

Although I had always felt that her talent was too great and that I probably couldn't catch up with it.

But he still thought that at least he had the support of his family's influence and financial resources, which would give him a competitive advantage in this area.

But now it seems that it's completely gone.

She accepted the bronze mirror but still wanted to return the money to him.

The meaning is quite obvious.

Xie Huaiyu left dejectedly with the silver notes, forgetting even to call out to Nangong Yu, who had come with him.

Nangong Yu didn't have time to deal with Xie Huaiyu right now; she had to keep a close eye on Baili Qing'er, since Baili Qing'er hadn't explained to her why she was having dinner with Yu Lingyao and the others.

After watching Xie Huaiyu leave, Baili Qing'er suddenly moved closer to Ling Yao.

He asked meaningfully, "Are you hiding some kind of demon on you?"

Lingyao glanced at her calmly.

"No."

Baili Qing'er's gaze swept over Ling Yao's face, but she couldn't see any flaws for the time being.

However, when Lingyao left just now, she did catch a fleeting glimpse of demonic energy on Lingyao.

However, because Lingyao walked too fast and there were too many people in the restaurant, she couldn't be sure whether the scent was coming from Lingyao or not.

However, while it cannot be confirmed, there are still some possibilities.

Baili Qing'er felt she needed to observe more carefully.

If Yu Lingyao really possesses some kind of demonic entity, wouldn't I have won a great victory?

After all, Lingyao hadn't even noticed the demon on her body, but she had discovered it.

Baili Qing'er couldn't help but feel happy at the thought of such a scene, so she took Nangong Yu's arm and walked away with a beaming smile.

The remaining three returned to the demon hunter's residence.

Fang Shui, who usually falls asleep as soon as his head hits the pillow, is unusually unable to sleep tonight.

Lingyao was sitting on the headboard, reading a book.

He Qinqin next to her was practicing drawing talismans, but she was just using the cheapest materials to practice her skills.

Fang Shui looked at Ling Yao and felt inexplicably sad.

"Sister Yaoyao, are you not going to live with us anymore, and you won't be coming back here?"

Lingyao turned a page and casually hummed in agreement.

Fang Shui's eyes welled up with tears: "Does that mean we'll never see you again?"

Earth-level demon hunters will be mentored by Heaven-level demon hunters during major missions, and they generally won't come to the demon hunter academy unless there are other commitments.

Lingyao glanced at her, interrupting her sentimental outburst.

"Didn't you know you were coming with me?"

Each Earth-level demon hunter can choose a Yellow-level demon hunter to be their assistant, essentially acting as the Yellow-level demon hunter's teacher.

The selected Yellow-level demon hunters can not only continue their studies at the academy, but also work alongside Earth-level demon hunters when going on missions.

The rewards and mission points that a level-one demon hunter can get for completing missions are very high.

Even among the Yellow-level demon hunters, there are quite a few.

Task points also account for a portion of the final assessment for upgrading demon hunters.

Therefore, the spot for a Level 1 demon hunter to select a Level 2 demon hunter is usually very competitive.

Many Yellow-level demon hunters also send gifts to Earth-level masters, hoping to be taken on a mission.

Fang Shui never expected that Ling Yao would choose her.

After all, her abilities aren't considered good even among Yellow-level demon hunters.

When she teams up with Lingyao, she's basically just an accessory.

The tasks assigned by Earth-level demon hunters are all high-level tasks, and one wrong move could put your life in danger.

Generally, they will choose some yellow-level demon hunters who are highly talented and capable.

At least it can play a role in the task.

Fang Shui's tears truly welled up this time.

She had a truly disastrous start, but who would have thought she would find a powerful ally?

They just won without lifting a finger.

This kind of life is just so awesome!

If Yao Yao were a man, I'd gladly let her marry me as a concubine.

Lingyao: I don't have the habit of taking concubines!

There are two reasons why Lingyao chose Fangshui as her assistant.

Firstly, she came from Qifang Village, and the two of them had become familiar with each other and used the same methods over the years.

Another reason is that Fang Shui is a bit of a simpleton; she's only interested in eating and doesn't pay much attention to anything else.

He would take her with him, and once the binding order was changed into human form and they lived together in the manor, even if he occasionally revealed some small clues, Fang Shui probably wouldn't notice.

Fang Shui was so moved that she burst into tears and immediately tried to take out the pastries she had been saving for a long time and presented them to Ling Yao.

Lingyao didn't eat, but He Qinqin, who was standing next to her, did.

While eating, she complained that the two of them had just left her alone in the dorm.

"Am I really going to lose just because I'm a Xuan-level demon hunter? I'm so angry!"

Fang Shui is in a better mood now, and she, a Yellow-level demon hunter, is even comforting He Qinqin.

"It's alright. It's not your fault that you're a Xuan-level demon hunter. There are some joint missions where we can still go out together to slay demons and monsters!"

Faced with Fang Shui's comforting words, He Qinqin felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

Half a month later, the mansion and official position rewards were all arranged.

Lingyao, with an excited Fang Shui in tow, boarded the sedan chair, while the little snake in her pocket became even more agitated.

They're about to start dancing in the bag around Lingyao's waist.

Fang Shui inadvertently noticed something moving around Ling Yao's waist.

After a few seconds of stunned silence, he looked at Lingyao and spoke.

"Sister Yao Yao, is it because the sedan chair is too shaky for you? Why don't we switch seats? I can see the bag on your waist is swaying back and forth."

Lingyao wanted to slap her thigh after hearing this.

This was the perfect choice! Absolutely perfect!
