Chapter 7

Leaf didn't know that she had been labeled as a strange collector, and that she was the type that was super dangerous and needed to be quarantined.

She still had her warm smile on her face as she greeted the cute little Cat gently.

This Pill had its own system. For example, if it suddenly appeared somewhere and there were ordinary people in the area, these people would be affected by This Pill, changing their senses and memories. They would think that there had always been such a building and that someone had just moved in recently.

However, the premise was that the effects were limited to ordinary people. It was useless against monsters and humans with spiritual power.

For example, the boy and the cat in front of her.

"Hey!

I'll talk!

Why did you move here? "

The Cat jumped out of the boy's arms, ignoring the steamed bun that had fallen to the ground. He raised his tail and bared his teeth as he spoke to the girl opposite him.

"You can't be rude to the lord!"

"Even if you're a cute little Cat!"

When the two Koteng Shiro saw this, they immediately unsheathed their swords and stood in front of Ye, one on the left and one on the right, their faces serious.

Although they had the appearance of children, they were swords that had seen countless amounts of blood. When they were serious, they could still surprise people.

Thus, the little Cat who was facing the swords changed back to its original form without hesitation. The huge fox roared and pounced towards them. The two Koteng Shiro were not even as big as one of its claws. The demon aura that it spewed out shook people until they couldn't even open their eyes.

The fox opened its mouth and was about to bite the two little fellows. When Leaf saw this, she made a seal with one hand and bent down to pick up the two little fellows. She jumped back and escaped the fox's attack range.

Her speed was so fast that it opened the eyes of everyone present.

The fox that didn't bite its target closed its big teeth. After a "clack" sound, its teeth were almost knocked out by itself. It only hated that it had bitten too hard.

At this moment, Jiazhou Qingguang, who was in charge of This Pill, also heard the news and came over. The snow-white blade and the fox's claws clashed, but it wasn't clear which was sharper.

The fox and the blade fought to a draw.

After placing Maeda and Hirano in a safe place, Leaf jumped in front of the fox master.

She was still holding two short knives that she had taken from Koteng Shiro. She had the intention to practice with him if he didn't cooperate. "Can you make your cat stop? There must be some misunderstanding between us."

The young man wasn't an unreasonable person. He had wanted to say this earlier, but because he suspected that the appearance of the other party might affect the safety of his family, he didn't immediately stop this sudden battle.

But now that he saw that the other party also had the intention to reconcile, he took the opportunity to accept this invitation.

The young man was also a person who believed in intuition. His childhood misfortune and his interactions with monsters allowed him to easily distinguish between good and bad intentions most of the time.

His intuition told him that the person in front of him was not a bad person.

If he ignored the two knives in her hands.

"Teacher Cat!

Stop! "

"California Palace!"

The two of them shouted at almost the same time. The big fox and Jiazhou Qingguang also obediently stopped and stood behind their masters.

Leaf immediately turned around to look. She saw that Jiazhou Qingguang's beautiful face had three additional claw marks. There was still blood, and he looked very miserable.

"Don't look!"

The other party didn't seem to expect her to turn around. He reacted very agitatedly, and even the hands holding the knives were trembling.

He raised his arms to block his face, trying to block her view. He looked like a bad-tempered hillbilly.

Although Leaf didn't know much about these knives, just based on his current behavior, she knew that this was a person who cared a lot about his appearance. And to him, she was a relatively special existence. It was normal for him to react a little.

But Leaf didn't give him a chance to resist.

She reached out and gently held his arm that was covering his face. She whispered, "Let me see, okay?"

Her voice was gentle and irrefutable. Jiazhou Qingguang unconsciously lowered his arm. He looked at her with a bit of embarrassment, and then quickly lowered his head.

He was very afraid.

Even a few days ago, when her face was pale because of her poor health, she was still so beautiful. He couldn't help but feel ashamed.

And now, in her eyes, did he look like a clown?

The knives and swords in This Pill always had a natural good impression of the Divine Inquisitor. This was because they absorbed spiritual energy from her. It was her existence that allowed them to survive.

He had been suppressing the desire to be close to her. It was as if as long as he did this, he wouldn't be so sad like last time. But in the end, he had to admit that he was just throwing a tantrum.

He cared a lot about her. He cared a lot about her.

"Don't be afraid. Be good and listen to me."

Her fingertips were warm. She gently lifted his chin, forcing him to look at her. Her other hand was wrapped in a thick layer of green spiritual energy. It was also warm and covered his wound.

"It won't hurt in a while."

Under the cover of the green spiritual energy, the wound slowly healed and formed a scab. In the end, the scab fell off and the skin there was as good as new.

She used a handkerchief to wipe his face. Once again, a beautiful Jiazhou Qingguang appeared. In addition to his messy ponytail and clothes from the fight, there was a different kind of beauty.

"Jia Zhou Palace, I don't know if you've heard of this saying. Beauty is in the bones, not the skin. A beautiful appearance is very important, but what really attracts me is this."

She pointed at the knife in his hand. "When you rushed in front of me just now, you were really, really beautiful."

After saying this, she helped him tidy up his ponytail. Leaf then turned around to talk to the cat and human duo who were almost done with their conversation. He was left alone there, not knowing what to do.

The mountain-tall fox didn't turn back into a Cat. He blocked in front of the youth. His claws and body had been cut a few times, and now he was bleeding.

The Jiazhou Qingguang also had injuries on his body. His situation was similar to the fox's. It looked terrible, but it wasn't fatal.

Even so, Leaf still wanted to quickly finish the matter here and bring him back for treatment.

She was very afraid of pain, so she couldn't see her own people get hurt.

"We didn't plan on hurting this one. If you didn't provoke us, this fight wouldn't have happened."

Without any pressure, she pushed all the blame to the other party. Leaf took out the two short knives that she had inserted into her waist when she was treating the Jiazhou Qingguang.

"If you really fought, the two of you might have to die here today. I think you know this very well."

She had been looking at the fox the entire time, but the content was for the youth to hear. Between the human and the yao, the one who made the decision was obviously the youth.

Sure enough, without waiting for Leaf to speak, the youth walked in front of the fox. It looked like it was to make it easier to talk to Leaf, but more importantly, it was to protect the fox behind him.

"My name is Natsume Takashi. I live next door."

The youth pointed at the Fujiwara house. Leaf immediately understood where the fox's hostility came from, and her heart suddenly felt a little weak.

They had just caught someone in the morning for questioning, and in the afternoon, they moved next door. Moreover, there was an ordinary human couple living next door. They were a nest of Death Gods. At first glance, if they said that they had no ulterior motives and were just moving, no one would believe it.

Moreover, they weren't really without ulterior motives.

This youth couldn't be the "important person" that Tsuru Maru spoke of, right?

"Wavy Leaf, I'm the head of this house. If you don't mind, I can help your cat take a look at its wound. It was injured by a spiritual weapon, so normal medicine is useless for it."

Leaf put on her kindest smile and tried her best to express her goodwill.

"Moreover, it's not appropriate to talk about the misunderstanding between us here. I can guarantee that we have no ill intentions. The reason why we moved here is because we have something that we need your help with."

The youth hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed to her invitation.

Leaf led them through the door.

The scenery inside the door was poles apart from the outside. It could be said that it was two different worlds. The youth couldn't help but take a few more glances. In the end, he was picked up by the big fox and placed on himself.

The fox didn't let down its guard.

As soon as they entered the door, the twins surrounded them. Their eyes were red, and it seemed that they had been crying for a while.

Leaf felt a little sorry for them, so she patted their heads and comforted them with a few words.

"California Palace Hall!

Quickly go into the room and bandage your wounds. You're still bleeding! "

Seeing that the God's Inquisitor was fine, the two kids nervously surrounded Jiazhou Qingguang.

They had just been directly placed in This Pill by Leaf and forbidden to go out. The two of them could only lie by the door and worry. They hated themselves for being too weak. Not to mention protecting the God's Inquisitor, they had fallen to the point where they had to be protected by the God's Inquisitor.

"I'll definitely train hard in the future!"

"Me too. Next time, I'll definitely protect the Lord well!"

After the two of them expressed their determination, they pulled Jiazhou Qingguang all the way into the room. Leaf also signaled for the fox to follow them.

Although the two kids were angry that the fox had hurt California, they could only suppress their anger when they saw how courteous Leaf was to them. They took back their original bodies from Leaf and swore that if the fox went berserk again later, they would protect the God's Inquisitor even if they had to die.

When they entered the room, under Leaf's gaze, Jiazhou Qingguang blushed and took off his clothes, revealing the wounds on his chest and back.

His skin was delicate and snow-white, which made the wounds look even more terrifying.

Leaf sucked in a breath of cold air. Then, she channeled green spiritual energy into her hands and began to treat his wounds.

In this position, it was as if she was hugging California's entire body. Her breath scattered on his neck, sometimes cold and sometimes hot, causing California's snow-white skin to turn pink inch by inch.

"Qing Guang … Can you call me Qing Guang, Lord?"

"Of course, Qing Guang."

He gave up resisting.

Even if this person would really leave him like the previous person, at most, he would accompany her.

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion outside the door.

The other Swords and Blades who had gone to investigate the original site of This Pill had returned.

The one who walked at the front was Tsuru Maru, Guo Yong, who was the first to notice the bloodstains outside the door. He looked into the room with red eyes, his face calm and ferocious. Behind him, a group of Swords and Blades had similar expressions.
