In the cafe, in the corner by the window.

Ning Xuanxuan grabbed Xue Chen's right hand and looked nervously at the black heart mark. As the mark jumped, her face became slightly pale.

When Xue Chen finished explaining the reason for the incident, she raised her head and said in disbelief: "Demon? You said there really are demons in this world?"

"Yes." Xue Chen exhaled slightly. Not to mention her, even he himself found it a little hard to believe that so-called demons really existed in the world, and they were indeed very evil. It could be said that they were far worse than ordinary people imagined.

To be worse.

"Not just demons, there are too many strange things in this world, such as spirits, also known as monsters. Not long ago, a friend of mine even encountered a vampire who claimed to be a tourist."

This was said by Zheng Li herself and confirmed by Li Donghan.

Ning Xuanxuan lowered her head, looked at the black heart mark on Xue Chen's palm with a somewhat absent-minded look, and asked softly: "You said that if you go to the capital tomorrow, you should be able to solve this strange thing."

"It should be no problem." The Yanhuang department is so huge and has many talented people, so there must be a way to solve it. He looked at Sister Xuan, "Are you... scared?"

Rarely, Ning Xuanxuan, who was always brave and fearless, nodded hesitantly.

And Xue Chen can also guess her thoughts. She is different from him. He has come to where he is now step by step. He has seen a lot and endured a lot. Let alone demons and vampires, they are even more terrifying existences.

Appearing there will not bring fear in his heart.

But she was different. She learned about spiritual practice by accident. She became a practitioner out of curiosity, and she got to where she is now under his guidance. She didn’t have much experience, and her understanding of the spiritual world was even more limited. She suddenly knew so many terrible things.

It is normal to feel fear in the existence of human beings.

"Then do you regret becoming a practitioner now? If you regret it, you can stop now, no longer be involved in practice, continue to live an ordinary life, and forget everything about practice, including the existences you fear."

Xue Chen thought she would consider it, but she didn't. She shook her head directly and refused.

"I'm a little scared, but I'm not worried." She raised her pretty face slightly, pretending to be relaxed and said, "Aren't you here? You are my shield. What kind of demon really appears? Blood Clan

Ah, ghosts and goblins, you are blocking me, aren't you?"

When Xue Chen heard the word "shield", he grinned and said unhappily: "Don't tell me the word "shield". I'm allergic to these three words. It was because I was a shield for you that Xu Ming and I were

There were so many disputes and conflicts."

"Why, aren't you willing to be my shield?" Ning Xuanxuan chuckled, with soft eyes and gentle lips, "There are benefits to being my shield."

"Benefits?" Xue Chen was dubious, "I should have acted as a shield for you more than once, but I haven't seen any benefits."

"Then do you want to take a look now?" Ning Xuanxuan held her cheek in one hand.

"Okay." Xue Chen nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

Miss Ning's lips curled up slightly, her body leaned forward slightly, and she said with a picturesque look on her face: "Then... close your eyes first."

"Close your eyes?" Xue Chen rubbed his nose, thought about it, and then closed his eyes.

But after waiting for a while, there was no movement. When he opened his eyes, he found that she was already standing at the door, hooking her hand towards him.

Xue Chen shook his head with a wry smile, got up and followed.

After leaving the coffee shop, the two of them walked casually along the sidewalk. Miss Ning laughed invisibly, so much that she bent over: "You are so stupid, you really closed your eyes and waited, you

There shouldn't be any...humming thoughts."

"You said you wanted to give me benefits, but I didn't ask for it. You lied to me and laughed at me." Xue Chen was speechless for a while.

"I'm kidding you." Ning Xuanxuan put her hands in her pockets, "Your words did scare me, but if you ask me to give up my practice, that won't work. I have practiced hard to get to this point, how can I say stop?

Just stop.”

"You brought me here, you are responsible for protecting me, don't refuse!"

Xue Chen raised his hands in a gesture of surrender: "Okay, okay, I'll protect you, that's it."

"That's pretty much it. Seeing that you're so obedient, well, I'll just give you some benefits. You... close your eyes."

Xue Chen glanced at her: "You're still here? You really think I'm a fool, but I won't be fooled anymore."

"You..." Ning Xuanxuan stamped her feet and gritted her teeth, "You don't want it yourself." After saying that, she turned around and walked away quickly.

Xue Chen scratched his head and followed.

"Let me ask you, does anyone around you know about you and the practice world?" After walking for a while, Ning Xuanxuan suddenly asked.

"What's wrong?" He thought for a moment. He didn't know many people, only a few people. It was because he practiced Ice Soul Sword and Ice Soul Shield that time. The few people he knew had an extraordinary relationship with him, and it didn't matter.

Worry about going out and talking nonsense.

"You just talked about the dangers in the spiritual world, but if there were only dangers, there wouldn't be so many people practicing. After all, there are more benefits. To put it simply, I used to have bodyguards secretly following me wherever I went, but now it's completely

No need, I can knock down a few bodyguards even without any magic."

Ning Xuanxuan flexed her fingers and talked about the benefits of practice. The most direct one is the changes in the body, because long-term exposure to spiritual energy can basically be said to be immune to all diseases.

"Also, you also said that it can also extend life span and solve many problems. For ordinary people, practitioners are really... too powerful. Haven't you ever thought about letting more people around you do the same?

Practice? Just like Mr. Wei's Immortal Stele Sect and the overbearing Bai family, they also create a practice inheritance? "

Xue Chen did not answer this question directly, but looked at Sister Xuan in surprise, not expecting that she would suddenly have such an idea.

"I just want to think that spiritual practice is like a mountain of gold that anyone can dig. Just put it wherever you go, and many people will dig for gold. In this case, normal people will definitely call on everyone around them to dig, right? For example, you can

Call your sister Xiaoqi and your good brother Wang Dong. Don’t you hope that they can also become practitioners? Even if they are not as good as you, it would be good to be like me. At least, if you encounter gangsters and robbers on weekdays,

You don’t have to worry about safety at all, right?”

Seeing her compare spiritual practice to digging for gold, Xue Chen felt that it was quite vivid, and he could tell that she definitely did not have such an idea suddenly.

"I just want to know why you suddenly think like this." He turned to look at Sister Xuan's delicate and fair profile.

Ning Xuanxuan lowered her eyes and looked at the ground, her thin lips trembling slightly: "It's because... I feel that I am too greedy. One person takes up too much of you, and I can't give you that much."

Looking at Sister Xuan who was in a low mood, Xue Chen couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that she thought so.

"Sister Xuan, you think too much, and that means nothing to me." He shook his head.

Ning Xuanxuan suddenly stopped, turned around, her eyes flickered: "That may not mean anything to you, but in fact, what you gave me is too precious. For example, the pill you gave me today, although I don't

I know where you come from, but I know that it must be very precious and precious, and cannot be obtained by ordinary practitioners, right?"

"You are always like this, not just to me, but to everyone around you. You take your great giving and help for granted and don't ask for anything in return. You are just...a fool!"

Xue Chen laughed: "How can you be so nice and then call me a fool?"

"You are not a fool. What is that? You are so good to me and you still let me bully you. You can tell yourself." Miss Ning asked calmly.

"Okay, I'm a fool." Xue Chen shrugged helplessly, then smiled, "I understand, you feel that I gave you too much and you can't repay me, right? In fact, you can

.”

"I...can I? How should I say it?" Miss Ning's pretty face was stared at by Xue Chen and she felt a little uncomfortable, "You...said."

"Really let me tell you?" Xue Chen's eyes began to glance up and down Sister Xuan's body, and occasionally he chuckled twice. Miss Ning's heart was filled with laughter, and her cheeks were dyed pink with laughter.

, looking a little flustered.

"Don't laugh! Just say it if you want to!" Ning Xuanxuan couldn't stand Xue Chen's meaningful laughter, and she was ready. If he dared to push further, the devil would be waiting for him.

But Xue Chen didn't say anything to make her angry. Instead, he reached out and tapped her head gently: "Sister Xuan, you have too many random thoughts in your head. It's better to focus on your practice.

So as not to waste my elixir."

Rarely, Ning Xuanxuan did not fight back.

"As for what you said about letting more people around me come into contact with spiritual practice and dig up that mountain of gold, it is not unreasonable. I have also thought about it, but it is not practical yet. It is easy to dig the mountain of gold, but what if stones fall from the mountain of gold?

It can also kill people, but I can't protect many people, at least not yet. Maybe I can wait until I reach the Danhua realm."

Ning Xuanxuan seemed to understand: "Then when will you reach the Danhua realm?"

"Maybe a long time ago, maybe very close, I don't know." No practitioner knows when he can enter the Alchemy Realm, no matter who he is, he can't.

"That's good. I'll keep some of the pills you gave me for others to use in the future, okay?" Ning Xuanxuan didn't want to become a greedy person in Xue Chen's eyes.

"No." Xue Chen said in a serious tone, "Why are you so stupid? I can get these pills now. When I become stronger in the future, it will be easier to get more. These are for you.

You just need to reach a higher level as soon as possible!"
