Chapter 391 - Demon Refinement (1)

Qi Chen was secretly surprised when he saw this scene. This sister of mine is decisive and cold-hearted. She’s smiling just because someone gave her their contact information? There must be a secret behind this.

Qi Xiao walked to a chair and sat down. She looked at Xu Jingming and asked, “You’re Redeye’s junior brother? What’s your name?”

“His name is Wu Ming,” Qi Chen explained. “He rushed over to visit you the moment he descended into the Demon Vanquishing World.”

“This was also a request by my senior brother, so I naturally have to do my best,” Xu Jingming remarked with a smile.

“Senior brother?” Qi Xiao said softly, “It looks like you know him in reality. What kind of person do you think your senior brother is?”

She had only shared some fate with Redeye in the Demon Vanquishing World for a period of time and had never come into contact with him in reality. Now that they were about to come into ‘contact,’ she felt inexplicably nervous! She wanted to learn more about Redeye’s situation in reality from this Junior Brother Wu Ming.

“This senior brother of mine?” Xu Jingming was slightly stunned.

As a peripheral member of the Primordial Research Institute, everyone hid their true identities, so he knew very little about Senior Brother Redeye. He only knew that Senior Brother Redeye was 719 years old this year and was very close to becoming a Lv. 9 Origin lifeform.

At the same time… He was very rich!

Most of his senior brothers and sisters had extraordinary backgrounds, but they unanimously recognized that their third brother, Redeye, was extremely rich!

Moreover, when the eight of them gathered and chatted, Xu Jingming felt that Fourth Sister Monina and Senior Brother Redeye probably knew each other in reality. As for the others, they likely kept their real identities absolutely secret.

“I don’t know much about him either,” Xu Jingming said with a smile. “The least I know is that he’s much better than me in terms of evolution.”

“What about his character in reality?” Qi Xiao pressed.

“Straightforward,” Xu Jingming replied.

“That’s it?” Qi Xiao asked.

Xu Jingming thought for a moment before commenting, “He’s rather rich. He’s definitely richer than me.”

Qi Xiao nodded and didn’t mind.

Rich? She dealt with money all day, and money was only a number in her eyes.

“Senior Brother Redeye’s contact information.” Xu Jingming took out a letter and handed it to the other party.

Qi Xiao reached out to take it and looked at the contact information written on it. Then, flames rose in her hand, reducing the paper to ashes.

“Got it.” Qi Xiao got up and smiled. “Thank you, Brother Wu Ming.”

Then, she disappeared into thin air and left the Demon Vanquishing World.

Qi Chen anxiously sat on the chair closest to Xu Jingming and asked, “What’s the relationship between your Senior Brother Redeye and Qi Xiao?”

Xu Jingming shook his head and answered honestly, “I’m not sure either. I’m just a messenger.”

“You…” Qi Chen was exasperated.

“Brother Qi Chen.” Xu Jingming got up. “Now that the matter has been settled, it’s time for me to leave.”

Patriarch Qi Chen got up to send him off. “Alright, Brother Wu Ming. If you encounter any trouble in Cheng’an Prefecture, feel free to come to me. The Qi family has quite some say in Cheng’an Prefecture.”

“Alright.” Xu Jingming smiled and bade farewell.

In the virtual world.

In Redeye’s personal space, he had already changed his appearance and turned into a young man. He lay on the sofa casually, sitting up and walking a few times.

Junior Brother Wu Ming said that he has given my contact number. Why hasn’t she contacted me? Redeye sat down again, his back straight and his brows furrowed.

She won’t… not contact me, right?

No… Since she’d chosen to meet Junior Brother Wu Ming, she should contact me after receiving my contact number. Redeye was also panicking.

Suddenly—

A message appeared.

Redeye’s heart skipped a beat as he tapped gently, allowing the other party to enter his personal space.

Qi Xiao—who looked much younger now—walked into his personal space. She had changed into a silver robe that matched her silver hair. Her eyes flickered with a strange glow as she looked at the youth in front of her.

“Qi Xiao.” Redeye had already gotten up.

“Didn’t you say not to contact one another after our separation? To treat it as a form of mental tempering?” Qi Xiao said.

Redeye was slightly taken aback as he whispered, “I failed a demon refinement not long ago.”

“You failed?” Qi Xiao’s expression changed as she asked, “Were your injuries serious?”

“It’s alright.” Redeye looked at Qi Xiao. “I failed in my mental battle with that Heaven Demon because I felt that what the Heaven Demon said made sense! Life becomes mundane and pitiful if evolution is the only thing that matters. Evolution is important to the entire human race, but for human individuals, emotions… might be more important than evolution.”

At the critical moment of the mental confrontation, it was because of his relationship with Qi Xiao that he failed. He also truly realized that he had never been able to get over Qi Xiao.

Qi Xiao blushed slightly and asked, “Are you confessing?”

“Yes.” Redeye nodded. “Are you agreeable?”

“Aren’t you going to ask if I’m single in reality?” Qi Xiao gazed at him. “Moreover, I know nothing about you in reality.”

“I’ve always been single,” Redeye remarked.

Qi Xiao also smiled. “Me too. Let’s try it out first.”

Redeye’s heart was filled with joy as he reached out to hold Qi Xiao’s hand. The latter didn’t refuse.

“Have a seat.” Redeye brought Qi Xiao to the sofa and sat down.

Qi Xiao smiled at him and said, “I won’t hide it from you. My real name is Qi Yunxiao, Demon Cloud. My name should make you guess that I’m from the Hunter Cosmic Sector’s Demon Cloud family.”

Redeye nodded. “The Demon Cloud family is ranked in the top 100 in the Hunter Cosmic Sector.”
