Chapter 1163: Three Tails

"I thought they were all like what's shown on TV, capable of magic and omnipotent; it turns out they don't live as well as people," Ning Ruoxue sighed.

"Humans are the leaders of all living things; this world is inherently human-centric. Regardless of whether it's a Spirit Monster or an Immortal, their final form is primarily human," Chen Yu said.

"So these low-level Spirit Monsters sometimes live worse than dogs. They don't dare to act recklessly for fear of the Heavenly Dao inflicting punishment, but in this world, anyone who knows a bit of Dao Technique can bully them at will."

"It seems that no matter where it is, life is hard for honest people," Ning Ruoxue sighed slightly. "If these demons were all like evil demons, killing without blinking, they wouldn't be bullied instead."

"True, kindness is sometimes not necessarily a good thing," Chen Yu nodded and said. "However, in how one conducts themselves and does things, one must still be kind."

"Hey, do you have anything to eat here? I'm hungry," just then, a voice grumbled with dissatisfaction. "I'm a guest coming to your place, after all; aren't you going to provide a meal?"

"Who?" Ning Ruoxue was startled and quickly climbed up from Chen Yu.

Looking up, she couldn't help but be dumbfounded; she saw a young girl standing in front of their bed, and by the looks of it, she seemed to have been standing there for quite a while.

"Don't be afraid, this is Sanwei," Chen Yu hurriedly comforted her. "She is a little demon; she doesn't eat people."

"Hey, is there anything to eat?" Sanwei looked at Chen Yu with dissatisfaction. "I'm hungry."

"How did you suddenly pop up?" Chen Yu was between laughter and tears. Didn't he remember arranging a room for this girl? How did she run over to his place?

And she had come so silently; it was fortunate that they, Ning Ruoxue and he, hadn't been doing anything unspeakable just now, otherwise, she would have seen it all.

"You left me alone over there; I was scared," Sanwei became even more dissatisfied. "I want to sleep here."

"Listen here, men and women should not touch when handing something over," Chen Yu said seriously.

"What touch or not touch?" Sanwei glanced at Chen Yu. "You can sleep with this sister, why can't I?"

"Our relationship is different, okay?" Chen Yu was speechless.

"I don't care, I'm staying here," Sanwei sat on the bed; looking at her like this, she seemed to be latching onto Chen Yu.

"Fine, fine, I'll get you something to eat first," Chen Yu said helplessly.

A moment later, the little fox was wolfing down the food Chen Yu had called for, while Ning Ruoxue sat to one side, looking at this little fox with a curious expression.

Honestly, if not for the three furry tails dragging behind this little girl, she looked no different from a normal person.

"Eat slowly, there's plenty," seeing the little girl eating so urgently, Ning Ruoxue thought she was hungry and couldn't help but feel a bit of heartache.

Indeed, Sanwei had an endearing face; no matter where she went, whether it was men or women, she could stir up people's protective instincts.

"Thank you, sister," Sanwei said the words indistinctly, then swept through the food like a storm, eating everything on the table clean. Only then did she stretch lazily, looking as if she hadn't had enough, and patted her round, full belly, revealing a satisfied expression.

"Full?" Chen Yu looked at her and said, somewhat speechless.

"Full," the little girl nodded with satisfaction.

"Then go back and sleep," Chen Yu said helplessly.

"I won't, I'm afraid when I'm alone," the little girl shook her head desperately.

"You're a demon, what are you afraid of?" Chen Yu said, feeling between laughter and tears.

"Afraid of the dark," Sanwei said timidly.

"Afraid of the dark?" Chen Yu rolled his eyes. "In that place where you come from, isn't it dark at night?"

"Not dark. Although there is no electricity, my mother has a dowry Night-Shining Pearl, and the room I sleep in is as bright as day," Sanwei said earnestly.

"Are you showing off your wealth?" Chen Yu sighed helplessly. "You go back first, I'll come find you in a moment."

"Forget it, you stay here and sleep with her, Chen Yu, you go back yourself first," Ning Ruoxue laughed.

"You're not afraid of her?" Chen Yu was startled. Was Ning Ruoxue's courage really that great?

"Such a cute little girl, what is there to be afraid of?" Ning Ruoxue smiled slightly. "It just so happens I can chat with her and learn more about the Demon Realm."

"Alright then, call me if you need anything," Chen Yu nodded.

He wasn't afraid of this girl being detrimental to Ning Ruoxue; looking at her silly appearance, she was the type who could be led around by the nose as long as you gave her food.

The Heavenly Fox Clan is inherently extremely intelligent; compared to ordinary demon clans, they have more advantages.

They are also more likely to achieve a positive result in their cultivation than other demon clans, but looking at the little girl before him, Chen Yu couldn't help but have his belief in this statement shaken.

Because this Sanwei looked silly; no matter how you looked at it, she didn't seem very bright. Compared to other demon clans, where was the advantage? Being good-looking?

What Chen Yu didn't know was that the Heavenly Fox Clan only becomes intelligent after their wisdom is opened; if their wisdom is not opened, they are no different from ordinary people.

And opening one's wisdom depends on the speed of one's own growth; if one grows fast, it opens at one tail, but if slow, it might not open even at four or five tails.

Chen Yu returned to the room, and Sanwei excitedly climbed onto the bed and lay down with Ning Ruoxue: "Your human beds are really too comfortable."

"What is your home like?" Ning Ruoxue asked.

"The southernmost part of the Demon Realm; further south is the Endless Wilderness, but between us and the wilderness, there is a river," Sanwei laughed.

"What is the wilderness?" Ning Ruoxue was puzzled.

"The place where the Demon Race lives. That river is called the Endless River; it is a natural chasm between the Demon Realm and the wilderness. With this chasm of a river, the Demon Race is imprisoned in the wilderness," Sanwei said.

"What is the difference between you and the demons?" Ning Ruoxue asked.

"Of course there's a difference. We demons are formed through cultivation, but demons are things outside the Three Realms and Six Paths," Sanwei said. "And demons can be said to be everywhere; if a Cultivator's will is not firm, they will enter the Demon path."

"But true demons, the races that survive in the wilderness, have immense strength, are extremely cruel, devour human hearts and minds, and can transform in thousands of ways. Those with high comprehension become the Demon Race, with handsome appearances, while those with low intelligence become Demon Beasts..."

Listening to her explanation, Ning Ruoxue nodded thoughtfully.

"Then since your home is so close to the Demon Race, will you come into contact with them?" Ning Ruoxue asked. "Or rather, will any demons cross over from the Endless River?"

"Yes, but very few. The Endless River is a natural chasm; it carries nothing, one cannot fly over it, and one sinks upon entering the water," Sanwei said. "Although some giant demons might be able to cross, once they reach the Demon Realm, their strength is greatly reduced."

"Just like how giant demons cannot leave the Demon Realm, as long as any demons come out, the Elders of our clan will join forces to kill them, and the Demon Emperor will also send Boundary Patrol Envoys to patrol the edge of the Demon Realm, so basically, no demons will come out."
