So it turns out I'm the demon!

Chapter 80 Qiu Yuexin: You think I wouldn't dare to stuff it in?

Jiang Mu slowly woke up.

The eyelids were lifted.

What first came into view was a hazy halo, followed by a watermelon.

Yeah, a big watermelon.

Ling Ye sat on the wooden stool by the bed.

I'm eating half a watermelon.

She held the round watermelon in one hand; its rind was dark green, making her five fingers appear even whiter.

"woke up?"

Ling Ye swallowed the melon pulp in his mouth and said in a calm voice, "I thought you were faking fainting."

Jiang Mu rubbed her aching temples: "What's wrong with me?"

In fact, he did intend to feign fainting at the time.

But as soon as his head touched that incredibly elastic surface, everything went black inexplicably, and he truly blacked out.

Could it be... that I fainted?

"Demon Poison".

Ling Ye scooped up a small piece of the juicy melon pulp and brought it to her lips.

Her lips parted slightly, revealing a glimpse of her pearly white teeth and pink tongue, as she took that rosy hue into her mouth.

"What?"

Jiang Mu didn't understand.

"You've been poisoned by a demon and have been unconscious for a day."

Ling Ye stuck out his tongue and gently licked away a drop of watermelon juice from the corner of his lips, saying calmly, "As for when I conceived, I don't know."

Jiang Mu was stunned.

The image of that figure in red suddenly flashed through my mind.

isn't it?

You little vixen, you actually poisoned me?

Ling Ye scooped out another spoonful of watermelon; the icy juice seemed to make her squint comfortably for a moment, but she quickly regained her cool demeanor.

"Fortunately, it was discovered in time, and I've already helped you expel the poison. This serves as evidence that the demoness did indeed want to kill you, and indirectly clears you of suspicion of colluding with demons."

In short, I must warn you, she may not be your sister anymore; she is undoubtedly a demon. She is the prime suspect, especially in the case of your family's murder.

Jiang Mu tried to get up, but felt completely powerless, and said helplessly:

"Sister Ling, could you spare a bite of melon?"

Ling Ye paused.

She looked at the half melon in her hand, then at Jiang Mu.

Recalling the time when the two of them shared half a watermelon on the roof of the inn, his ears inexplicably felt hot.

She got up and took the other half of the watermelon from the table, along with a clean spoon, and placed it beside Jiang Mu's pillow.

"I can't move my hands," Jiang Mu said helplessly.

Ling Ye pursed his lips, sat down on the edge of the bed, picked up a spoon, scooped up a spoonful, and brought it to Jiang Mu's lips.

The woman remained silent.

Ling Ye, you've truly fallen, stooping so low as to personally feed men.

the last time.

This is absolutely the last time; there will be no next time!

Jiang Mu opened her mouth and put the spoon in her mouth.

The cool watermelon flesh melted in my mouth, and the sweet juice soothed my throat, even clearing my muddled mind.

After swallowing, he asked, "Did you report this to the Demon Slayer Division?"

"Um."

Ling Ye nodded, "Lord Ran personally led a group there and found the demon's lair in the secret cave behind the Divine Sword Sect."

Jiang Mu breathed a sigh of relief.

Old Ran is reliable.

He sighed deeply, "The Divine Sword Sect will be wiped out of the martial world from now on. How tragic and lamentable."

"The Divine Sword Sect still exists."

Ling Ye scooped up another spoonful and handed it over.

Jiang Mu was stunned: "It's still there? It wasn't raided?"

"The investigation has now been completed. It was Yuan Wugen and his son He Shuangying who secretly raised demonic creatures without the sect's knowledge. The former sect leader He was unaware of this and deeply resented it."

Ling Ye fed the other person a piece of melon pulp and said,

"Yuan Wugen, knowing his sins were grave, committed suicide out of fear of punishment. This matter was thus concluded."

"Anyone actually believes that?" Jiang Mu almost choked.

Ling Ye said calmly:

"The General has already sent a document saying that a special envoy will be sent to review it."

In addition, the Divine Sword Sect donated some of its secret manuals to the Demon Slaying Division, covering methods of alchemy, talismans, and weapon crafting, and pledged to hand over a portion of the profits each year to assist the imperial court in exterminating demons.

Elder He, the former sect leader, contributed during the Mist Demon invasion, and now the imperial court needs the assistance of martial arts forces... that's the meaning.

Jiang Mu listened in silence for a long time.

black.

That's fucking shady.

All crows are black, and the officialdom and the underworld are all a stew.

He looked at Ling Ye: "What do you think?"

Ling Ye was taken aback.

She turned her face slightly to avoid Jiang Muzhuo's intense gaze.

Bamboo shadows sway outside the window.

The sunlight streaming in slanted across her profile, casting a hazy golden edge on her delicate nose and soft lips.

After a while, she scooped up a spoonful of melon and held it to the other person's lips, saying softly, "It's good that you're alright."

Jiang Mu opened her mouth to catch the spoonful of watermelon, and suddenly laughed:

"the same as you."

Ling Ye was stunned for a moment, looking at the smile on his lips. His thin lips, which were usually pursed and cold, were unconsciously curved slightly.

Like the melting of ice and snow, and the blooming of pear blossoms on thousands of trees, it is extremely moving.

She subconsciously withdrew her hand, then scooped out another spoonful from the half-melon and put it in her mouth.

The moment the spoon is held in the mouth.

A faint sense of unease washed over me.

She suddenly froze.

and many more……

She looked at the spoon in her melon.

The pupils constrict slightly.

Did you... not change the spoon yourself?

Ling Ye abruptly pulled the spoon out of her mouth, a faint blush rising to her ears.

Jiang Mu noticed this as well and couldn't help but mutter a complaint to herself.

Now you dare to lick my spoon.

I really don't dare to think about what I'll eat next.

Jiang Mu asked, "Could Yuan Wugen have faked his death to escape?"

Ling Ye suppressed the surging embarrassment in his heart and shook his head:

"No, the body has been personally examined and it's confirmed to be him. As for whether it was suicide out of fear of punishment... it's hard to say."

Jiang Mu nodded, deeply moved.

This old sect leader He is ruthless.

In order to preserve the sect's foundation, they would not hesitate to push their own son-in-law to take the blame, or even silence him.

This kind of ruthless leader is a great threat.

He opened his mouth again, like a fledgling bird waiting to be fed: "Ah—"

Ling Ye's hand holding the spoon froze.

She stared at the spoon they had "shared," her mind in turmoil.

To replace or not to replace?

If I were to change the spoon now, wouldn't it make me seem like I cared a lot earlier? That would be like protesting too much.

But if we don't change it...

Oh well, we've already eaten, what else can we do?

Ling Ye, having given up all hope, took his own spoon and scooped out a large mouthful for the other person, stuffing it forcefully into his mouth.

I'll shut you up!

Jiang Mu smacked her lips; it was indeed sweeter.

After eating some watermelon, Jiang Mu felt her strength had recovered considerably.

Looking around, I suddenly felt that the furnishings in the room looked familiar.

Bamboo windows, the scent of herbs, and dried herbs hanging on the wall...

Isn't this the bamboo hut in Lingzhu?

Ling Ye explained:

"I originally planned to send you back to your home, but that Miss Chu said you have a tigress at home."

If she sees me sending you back, that tigress will definitely get jealous, and might even scratch me.

I figured it was better to avoid trouble, and besides, this girl's medical skills are really good; she can help you improve your health, so I brought her here.

"tigress?"

Jiang Mu felt somewhat helpless.

Why are Lingzhu and Baixiang so incompatible according to their birth charts?

It seems a strong adhesive is needed.

"I have something to do, so I have to go now. You should rest a little longer."

Ling Ye stood up.

"By the way, not many people know about your attainment of the orthodox star position, apart from me and Ran Qingshan."

This was also one of Ran Qingshan's bargaining chips in negotiations with the Divine Sword Sect. To save face, the Divine Sword Sect acquiesced to this outcome and did not announce it to the outside world.

After all, obtaining a legitimate star position would bring a lot of trouble if outsiders found out.

Jiang Mu felt a warmth in her heart.

Old Ran is indeed a good person to get along with.

Ling Ye moved her pink lips as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't speak. She walked out of the small house and closed the door behind her.

The room fell silent again.

Feeling bored, Jiang Mu picked up the remaining watermelon and started eating it, pondering his next cultivation plan.

As we were eating, the temperature in the room suddenly dropped a few degrees.

Jiang Mu seemed to sense something and suddenly looked up.

The girl in red had somehow gotten onto the roof beam, smiling at him with a gleam in her eyes.

"Speak."

"How do you plan to thank me?"

谢?

You've already poisoned me, and you're thanking me?

Jiang Mu chuckled coldly, "Just don't shove your lousy foot into my mouth."

The girl's face suddenly turned cold, and she said in a chilling voice:

"You think I wouldn't dare!?"

The girl leaped down, kicking off her little boots.

Her tiny, snow-white feet were exposed.
