I am just a mortal, why do you all worship me as a saint?

Chapter 282: Hesitation

Without further thought, Gu Heng opened the system interface, and sure enough, Bai Feier's "detailed information" had been recorded.

Although he doesn't need this information.

They have their own lives to live, and Gu Heng doesn't need to interfere with how they live them.

Even if the system reminded him that Bai Feier was "special," he didn't care how special she was.

Now that he had already used his "eagle eyes" once, he could observe two more targets. Fortunately, there were two more targets to observe in this courtyard.

Gu Heng first looked at Su Jinxi, who was lying under the tree, wagging her tail and watching the two women dance with swords with a bored expression.

This little kitten must have some special background. Su Jinxi looked up at Gu Heng.

Seeing him staring at her, she didn't flinch, and even licked her paws.

Gu Heng: "..."

He wasn't just teasing the cat.

With his keen eyes, Gu Heng immediately saw the information he wanted, and this time, it was indeed very detailed.

Because Gu Heng knew almost nothing about Su Jinxi. He had never thought to ask her where she came from, how old she was, why she could transform into a human, whether she was a demon or a cultivator who had practiced transformation techniques...

and so.

Gu Heng saw a lot of information he had never known before.

Name: Su Jinxi

Age: 4,673 years old

Cultivation Level: Tenth Level of Tribulation Transcending Stage

"The former Grand Elder of the Nine-Lives Demon Cat Tribe in the Demon Realm. He is calm and unambitious, prefers a peaceful life, is out of step with his tribe, and detests tribal conflicts. He was once the most trusted guest of the Demon Emperor and possesses the purest 'Heavenly Demon Bloodline' (unawakened)."

Note: This object is extremely special!

Gu Heng glanced at Su Jinxi, then looked down at himself.

He is in his early twenties.

But Su Jinxi is already over four thousand years old?

The thought that the little cat he used to pet and pet all day, and who he could easily hold in his hands, was actually a demon over four thousand years old made Gu Heng feel a little scared.

He's a demon at the tenth level of the Tribulation Transcending stage!

This feeling is somewhat similar to an ignorant, ill-fated scholar who finds a snake no longer than an arm and raises it carefully, unaware that the snake is actually a thousand-year-old snake demon with profound power, capable of tearing him to shreds once it unleashes its fury...

Although Gu Heng couldn't cultivate, he still knew what the tenth level of the Tribulation Transcending stage meant. He had even gone to join the fun and witnessed firsthand what a clash between Tribulation Transcending cultivators looked like at Jingku Valley.

To be honest, that Jingku Valley is quite large, a basin covering two or three miles in circumference. Even though it's quite far away, Gu Heng could still feel the ripples in the air when the two fought.

It's huge!

Moreover, those from the Nianling Sect and the Huangdao Sect seem to be only at the first level of the Tribulation Transcending Realm, right?

What kind of power can someone who has passed the tenth level of tribulation unleash?

Gu Heng couldn't help but shiver.

First of all, Su Jinxi shouldn't have much to worry about, since the system said she was "calm and unambitious and preferred a peaceful life," right?

Since that's the case, I shouldn't need to worry about her suddenly getting unhappy with me one day and then swatting me to death with her claws, right?

She was quite docile and obedient just now. However, the reason she acted this way was probably because she mistakenly believed that the person who adopted her was a cultivator.

But that shouldn't be the case.

Back when he was running a clinic in Qingmu City, Gu Heng didn't have any "temporary trial vouchers".

But there's no need to worry about any of that now, since he has the trial voucher. He can use it with just a thought, and he'll be invincible for a quarter of an hour without any problem.

Since she's willing to continue being his cat, then...

Is there anything to object to?

As for the "extremely special" annotation, Gu Heng thought about it and ignored it.

So what if he's special? What does that have to do with him?

If Gu Heng was concerned about whether Bai Feier had any special secrets, his reluctance to know was to protect their relatively close relationship, since no one could guarantee that the secret wouldn't have negative consequences if it were exposed. However, Gu Heng had absolutely no interest in knowing Su Jinxi's secrets.

You can't touch a tiger's backside.

Such a practical principle should be put into practice!

Then he thought of the system.

The system is mysterious, but compared to Su Jinxi, it is the system that is more surprising to Gu Heng now. This "eagle eye" skill has allowed him to see through Su Jinxi so easily.

At this thought, Gu Heng's heart pounded wildly!

He tried to remain calm.

Sure enough, this system is not only not inferior, but it's incredibly powerful!

I really want to see how many surprises it can bring after I cultivate myself!

So, Su Jinxi has seen it, Bai Feier has seen it, and now only the little girl Qin Yiyao is left.

"Girl, even though we've been together for quite a while, I still don't really know you..."

Gu Heng stroked his chin, thinking.

The two met by chance during a bullying incident, and then naturally let her live under their roof. It hasn't been that long, only a few months ago.

Suddenly, both Gu Heng and Qin Yiyao had gotten used to each other, and to be more precise, she could even say that she couldn't live without him.

He really wanted Qin Yiyao to learn to take care of herself.

For example, how to wash and buy clothes, cook, and how to hunt when you have to sleep in the wild...

Otherwise, what if one day this girl has to go out and make her way in the world, but she doesn't know anything, just because he spoiled her?

however.

There were some things Gu Heng never mentioned.

For example, he might ask Qin Yiyao about her past. The reason he didn't ask was because when Gu Heng first met her, she was already going through a very difficult time.

Sixteen is considered a young woman. Over the past few months, Gu Heng has consistently taught her to exercise and strengthen her body. In addition, he has never been stingy with food, providing her with the necessary nutrients for growth and often making sweets according to her preferences.

Qin Yiyao now has everything she should have, and has even grown half a head taller. Coupled with the dress Gu Heng personally chose for her, plus her somewhat clumsy makeup skills...

In short, it's beautiful.

The little girl was truly skin and bones back then, almost no fat, short, sallow and thin, without any luster, her eyes were dull and lifeless, and she always looked at people with wariness, living like the most humble and hopeless ant among mortals.

Think about it now.

She might have been forced to live that way, or it might have been for self-preservation. The little girl is so beautiful.

In this world where martial prowess reigns supreme, if a woman lacks the power to protect her appearance, she is reduced to an object to be wantonly violated by others, and is not even considered a human being.

Therefore, Gu Heng did not dare to ask her what kind of life she had lived in the past.

It might be so terrible that it's hard to respond.
