Chapter 34 The Man Called a "Demon"
Jiang Han pushed the wheelchair and quietly watched Ye Xinxia holding Xue Ling, while Ye Xinxia stroked Xue Ling's smooth fur.
Neither of them spoke during their walk; they simply strolled quietly. To break the awkward silence, Jiang Han spoke first: "Xin Xia, you two should have awakened magic by now, right? What type of magic did you awaken?"
"I awakened the healing ability," Ye Xinxia said with a smile, holding Xue Ling in her arms.
"Wow, my Xinxia is amazing! She can even awaken a healing magic, a kind of white magic, in her first element!" Jiang Han praised with a smile.
Ye Xinxia was a little embarrassed by Jiang Han's praise, and said coquettishly, "Who is your Xinxia? What is our relationship?"
"What's your relationship like?" Jiang Han asked with a smile, leaning close to Ye Xinxia's ear.
"Our relationship, our relationship, our relationship is very good." Ye Xinxia's voice grew softer and softer, and finally she lowered her head.
As Ye Xinxia buried her head, Jiang Han suddenly shouted, "Ah, there are demons there!"
"There's a demon! Let's run!" Ye Xinxia frantically raised her head, only to be kissed squarely by Jiang Han who had just leaned in.
"Waaaaah~~~"
Ye Xinxia was a little shy and wanted to raise her hand to push Jiang Han away, but after thinking about it, she put her hand down.
Just as Jiang Han and Ye Xinxia were passionately kissing, Xue Ling, who was in Ye Xinxia's arms, suddenly made a strange "chirp chirp chirp" sound, interrupting their kiss.
After regaining her senses, Ye Xinxia hurriedly pushed Jiang Han away, a blush appearing on her face, making her even more beautiful under the moonlight.
"Brother Jiang Han, remember, nothing happened just now. If you dare to say anything, I'll never talk to you again," Ye Xinxia said, her pretty face flushed.
Jiang Han nodded with a smile and said, "Yes, nothing happened."
Before they knew it, the two arrived at the cafeteria of Mingwen Girls' High School. The cafeteria was pitch black, and there were even eerie noises coming from inside.
Seeing that the cafeteria was completely dark, Ye Xinxia said with some concern, "Jiang Han, how did we end up here? Never mind, let's leave quickly."
"Don't worry, everything will be fine with me here. Since we're already here, let's stay and watch your brother and the others fight," Jiang Han said with a smile, patting Ye Xinxia's head.
"Is Brother Mo Fan inside?" Ye Xinxia asked, looking at Jiang Han.
"Yeah, he joined the city's monster-hunting team. Today is his first mission with them, so of course he'd come," Jiang Han nodded in reply.
"Ah, Brother Mo Fan has joined the city's monster-hunting team!" Ye Xinxia exclaimed, her mouth agape in surprise.
"Not just him, I've also joined the city's monster-hunting team. Come on, I'll take you to see them."
"Mm." Ye Xinxia nodded.
Jiang Han pushed the wheelchair into the cafeteria. As soon as they reached the entrance, Jiang Han and Ye Xinxia smelled a pungent, foul odor. The smell was so unpleasant that if it weren't for the cafeteria sign, Jiang Han would have thought he had come to a garbage dump.
The cafeteria was pitch black at night, and the smell of sour food and the chilly atmosphere made it seem unusually eerie.
"Hmm~, Xinxia, the hygiene in your cafeteria doesn't seem very good. There's a really bad smell." Jiang Han teased with a smile.
Ye Xinxia quickly explained, "No, Brother Jiang Han, our cafeteria wasn't like this before. This smell suddenly appeared in the last two weeks. Every time I enter the cafeteria, I feel a chill down my spine."
As Ye Xinxia spoke, she leaned closer to Jiang Han, as if Jiang Han's presence would protect her from any harm.
"Xinxia, don't be afraid with me here," Jiang Han said with a smile, gently patting Ye Xinxia's back to comfort her.
*Poof!* A ball of crimson flame ignited from Jiang Han's palm, illuminating the dark cafeteria and even dissipating much of the eerie, chilling atmosphere.
"Hey, Jiang Han, didn't you awaken both lightning and ice magic? How can you use fire magic?" Ye Xinxia asked疑惑地问道.
Jiang Han smiled and said, "My ice magic recently broke through to the intermediate level, and when I awakened my magic again, I also awakened fire and summoning magic. Oh, by the way, the little one in your arms is my summoned beast, her name is Xue Ling."
Jiang Han didn't tell Ye Xinxia that his lightning element had also broken through to the intermediate level. It would be too shocking to say it. To cultivate both elements to the intermediate level in just one year is a cultivation speed that ordinary people cannot achieve.
"Ah, you've already mastered the ice element in just one year!" Ye Xinxia exclaimed, her mouth agape in surprise.
Immediately afterward, Ye Xinxia realized something. Could it be that Brother Jiang Han had joined a cult like the Black Vatican? No, she absolutely couldn't let Brother Jiang Han go astray.
"Brother Jiang Han, I heard from my teacher that there's an evil organization called the Black Vatican that has a method to increase the cultivation speed of ordinary cultivators. Could it be that you...?"
Jiang Han lightly tapped Ye Xinxia on the head, pretending to be angry, and said, "Xinxia, what are you thinking, girl? How could I possibly join that kind of cult? My talent in ice magic is quite high. If it doesn't work, you see..."
Jiang Han waved his right hand, and an ice-type star map appeared beneath his feet. Several ice locks flew out from the ground and wrapped around the huge shadow hidden deep in the cafeteria.
"Chirp chirp chirp!!!!"
The enormous shadow struggled after being bound by the ice lock, and even opened a huge scarlet eye, from which red beams shot out, heading towards Jiang Han and Ye Xinxia.
boom!!!
The massive projectile exploded in front of Ye Xinxia and Jiang Han, sending several thick fragments of ice flying everywhere.
Just as the ray was about to hit Ye Xinxia and Jiang Han, the extreme cold ice fox Xue Ling raised its head from Ye Xinxia's arms, a blue light flashing in its black eyes. Immediately afterwards, a huge ice shield appeared in front of Jiang Han and Ye Xinxia.
Jiang Han and Xue Ling acted in the blink of an eye. By the time Ye Xinxia reacted, the giant one-eyed rat had been transformed into a crystal-clear ice sculpture by more than a dozen ice crystal chains.
"This... how could there be demons in the school cafeteria?" Ye Xinxia covered her mouth with her delicate hand in fear.
Jiang Han patted Ye Xinxia's head and comforted her with a smile, "Alright, it's alright now, that demon has been dealt with."
After a few minutes of stunned silence, Ye Xinxia exclaimed in surprise as if she had discovered something new: "Brother Jiang Han, you constructed the ice-type star map without connecting the star orbits, right?"
"Yes, I may have some special talent in ice magic, which makes my training speed and spell casting speed quite fast. This is why I was able to cultivate ice magic to the intermediate level so quickly."
"Wow, does that mean Jiang Han, your talent is even greater than Mu Ningxue, who's known as the number one genius in the world?" Ye Xinxia looked at Jiang Han with admiration.
Jiang Han said with considerable pride, "That's right, I'm the man known as a 'prodigy' at our school."
Suddenly, a series of hurried footsteps came from outside, and soon Mo Fan and Xu Dahuang, Cai Tang, and Xiao Ke from the city's monster-hunting team rushed in from outside the cafeteria.
"What's going on here? Where are the demons?" Xu Dahuang's gruff voice echoed throughout the cafeteria.
