Chapter 407 Do Not Speak Recklessly

The wolf demon looked at Feng Qishi’s mouth and asked, “Are you thirsty?”

“A little, but I can bear it. You should leave quickly,” Feng Qishi waved his hand.

“Since you’re thirsty, you should drink some water.”

“Do you want to kill me? I just had surgery and can’t drink water,” Feng Qishi said seriously.

“I didn’t know,” the wolf demon said aggrievedly.

Feng Qishi glared at the wolf demon and muttered, “Speaking of which, wasn’t there a rule before surgery not to eat or drink? I remember I ate this morning, so why was I able to have surgery? It’s really strange.”

“You think too much,” the wolf demon muttered.

“I do think too much. What does that have to do with you?” Feng Qishi said flippantly.

“I didn’t say it had anything to do with me. Anyway, I think you should just go to sleep,” the wolf demon said, crossing his legs.

“You’re not planning to leave?”

“I just want to see you fall asleep before I leave,” the wolf demon said.

Feng Qishi glared at the wolf demon and said, “In that case, we’ll just stay in this stalemate. My brother will be back soon, and I’ll see how you explain your relationship with me.”

“I can become invisible,” the wolf demon raised an eyebrow.

“Invisible?” Feng Qishi chuckled. “Hu Yuan’s body isn’t good. You’ve used such a powerful demon art today. It’ll be difficult for you to become invisible, won’t it?”

“It is difficult,” the wolf demon admitted, his eyes narrowing as he asked, “How did you know about the Spirit Transferring Method?”

“I don’t understand what you’re saying,” Feng Qishi said with a straight face.

“You don’t understand? Alright, I’ll make you understand.” The wolf demon’s eyes widened. He quickly stood up, and just as he was about to strike, he suddenly felt dizzy and lowered his hand.

“In the beginning, the spiritual energy in this body was supporting your healthy demon soul. Now that the spiritual energy has returned to Hu Yuan’s soul, this body naturally won’t be as easy to use.”

“How do you know?” the wolf demon asked through gritted teeth.

“You want to know how I know?” Feng Qishi smiled.

“Speak,” the wolf demon said, his legs feeling weak as he sat down on the stool.

“The soul told me,” Feng Qishi said.

Then, the soul child suddenly appeared and growled, “Wolf demon.”

Seeing this, the wolf demon stomped his foot and disappeared.

Feng Qishi snorted softly.

The soul child walked around the foot of the bed and came in front of Feng Qishi, saying, “Why did you tell that wolf demon what I told you?”

“If I don’t tell him, what if he kills me?” Feng Qishi said, turning his head to look at the soul child.

“You’ve already tried to kill yourself, yet you’re still clinging to life. You are truly strange,” the soul child said helplessly.

Feng Qishi narrowed his eyes. “I told you, I was killed by him. I said that for Mu Anxiao. Can you stop dwelling on this issue?”

“This is the only chance I have to find fault with you. Just let me talk for a few more days,” the soul child said in a coquettish tone.

Feng Qishi looked at the innocent big eyes of the soul child in front of him and sighed, “Alright, but you have to help me analyze a problem.”

“You say,” the soul child smiled.

“That is, why was I able to have surgery?” Feng Qishi, not knowing who to ask, asked the soul child.

“Surgery…” the soul child repeated, then thought for a moment and said, “Oh, are you referring to the fact that you ate?”

“Yes,” Feng Qishi nodded.

“Brother, do the math. Several hours have passed since you got into trouble and your surgery. Not to mention that when Mu Anxiao used her magic to save you, the energy in your body had already been converted to immortal arts. Coupled with your good condition, you were cleared for surgery after the pre-operative examination. It’s that simple,” the soul child said casually.

Feng Qishi looked at the soul child’s learned expression and smiled, “I didn’t expect you to know so much.”

“Of course,” the soul child said, raising his eyebrows unpretentiously.

“How old are you?” Feng Qishi suddenly asked.

“I don’t know, but…” the soul child’s eyes dimmed, “I’m much older than you.”

Feng Qishi listened to the soul child’s immature voice and looked at his childlike face, shaking his head, “I can’t tell. I think you’re just a little brat.”

“Even if I’m a brat, I know more than you,” the soul child said arrogantly.

“Yes, you do know more than me,” Feng Qishi admitted.

The soul child maintained his arrogant expression and said, “Never mind, you should rest well. Remember not to talk about magic or anything like that with mortals. You’re breaking the rules.”

“That was the wolf demon,” Feng Qishi mumbled.

“Only I know he’s a wolf demon. Other souls don’t. Anyway, remember,” the soul child said sternly, “Don’t say it, and don’t say that I told you anything.”

“Got it,” Feng Qishi agreed and closed his eyes.

Seeing Feng Qishi’s appearance, the soul child stuck out his tongue, squatted down, and disappeared.

“Children are still children,” Feng Qishi muttered the moment the soul child left.

In the courtyard, when Mu Anxiao woke up, the sky had already darkened. Zhang Yan stood in front of her, gently instructing the workers to move the things back into the room.

“How long have I been asleep?” Mu Anxiao asked with a hoarse voice.

Hearing this, Zhang Yan turned and smiled at Mu Anxiao, “Not long, only about two hours.”

“What time is it now?” Mu Anxiao asked.

“It’s not yet seven-thirty. What’s wrong? Are you going out again soon?” Zhang Yan asked.

Mu Anxiao shook her head, “No, I just feel like I’ve slept for a long time.” She lifted the blanket, stood up, and looked at the busy workers, asking, “Where are Liu Xian and Fan Yan?”

“They’re out,” Zhang Yan replied.

“Where did they go?” Mu Anxiao asked further.

“Why are you asking that?” Zhang Yan asked, confused.

“No, I just wanted to…” Mu Anxiao glanced at the workers and lowered her voice, “Since I’m leaving soon, and Liu Xian and Fan Yan have taken good care of me, I want to treat them to a meal.”

“Let’s not talk about eating for now. How are you feeling?” Zhang Yan said, reaching out to touch Mu Anxiao’s forehead.

“I feel much more relaxed,” Mu Anxiao smiled. “Thank you for your concern.”

“No matter what, your master entrusted you to my care. If anything were to happen to you before you return, how would I explain it?” Zhang Yan said, withdrawing his hand.

Mu Anxiao didn’t know how to respond to Zhang Yan’s topic and gave a faint smile.

Then, Zhang Yan looked at the workers, intentionally took Mu Anxiao’s arm, and led her to a nearby corner. He whispered, “By the way, what about the wolf demon?” He released her arm as he spoke.

“To be honest, I don’t know why that guy suddenly became so strong. I remember,” Mu Anxiao’s eyes narrowed, “I used the Spirit Transferring Method to return the spiritual energy to Hu Yuan’s soul? Then why is he still so strong?”

“Maybe his demon arts have recovered!” Zhang Yan said uncertainly.
