The shark’s huge body slowly floated up from the sea. The originally calm sea instantly surged with waves, rushing towards the beach.
“Why are you here?” Mi Wan frowned. She and Fan Chen had been on the island for so long, but they had not noticed such a big shark demon under the sea.
“I was originally here. I have been sleeping here.” The shark demon had completely risen from the sea at this time, and its huge size was almost as big as the island. His voice was lazy, with a transparent youthful feel, and it was very pleasant to hear.
The shark demon couldn’t help but yawn again, and then a huge stream of water was blown over by the wind he exhaled while yawning. Just when the wind was about to give the two of them a chill, Fan Chen raised his hand slightly and an invisible sword split the water flow into two parts from the middle.
“Sorry, I’m too sleepy. I didn’t mean to.” The shark demon stared at the two of them carefully for a while, and then said with some surprise, “One of you is a demon hunter and the other is a demon?”
“Yes.” Mi Wan nodded. It turned out that the shark demon had been sleeping here. It was not him who approached them, but them who came to the place where the other party was sleeping. When the demon clan was sleeping, if they deliberately restrained their demonic energy, it would be difficult to find them without searching carefully.
“Is what Old Turtle said true? Humans and demons really coexist peacefully on land? Can even demon hunters fall in love with demons?” The shark demon couldn’t help but murmur to himself.
However, the volume of his muttering was not low, and both people on the shore could hear it.
Mi Wan was speechless for a while, not knowing how to react, but Fan Chen glanced at the shark demon in surprise and asked, “Is the old turtle you are talking about Gui Xuan who just returned to the sea a while ago?”
“Hey, do you know Mr. Turtle?” The shark demon looked at Fan Chen curiously. He knew that this male demon was very strong. He might not be his opponent in terms of cultivation, but this was the sea, his territory. If a fight really happened, he was not afraid either. So for Fan Chen, the shark demon did not treat the big demon with the same respect and fear.
“It just so happens that your girlfriend is a human, so you must be very familiar with human society.” The shark demon suddenly became excited, “Can you take me to Cannes?”
The two were startled, and after looking at each other, Mi Wan asked curiously, “Why are you going to Cannes?”
“That’s right. Some time ago, Old Turtle asked me to take a little turtle to Cannes to find the Demon King and learn about garbage classification by the way.” Shark Demon replied.
“Learning garbage classification? Why?” Mi Wan was even more confused after hearing this. A shark demon needed to travel thousands of miles to the human world to learn garbage classification? What was this operation?
“The reason is a long story.” Shark Demon said.
“Then keep the story short.” Fan Chen pulled Mi Wan to sit down. He didn’t have a good impression of this shark demon who interrupted his date, so he decided to listen to what the other party wanted to do with him first, and then consider whether to meet the other party on returning to Cannes.
“Okay, let me make the long story short.” The shark demon moved its tail, and there was another wave on the sea. “Before Old Turtle came back, I was the demon with the highest cultivation level in the sea. That day I was planning to drive away a group of fish carrying the virus. When we went offshore, Old Turtle came back…”
“Why were you driving the fish carrying the virus to the offshore?” Mi Wan asked sharply with a bad look on his face.
“Of course it’s to poison humans.” The shark demon replied leisurely.
“You…” Mi Wan saw that the other party was not shy about it and bluntly said that he wanted to poison humans. She was so angry that she almost brought out the black iron sword on the spot. With a “buzz” sound, the Black Iron Sword came out of her body, stood suspended in the air, and was aimed at the shark demon’s eyes.
“Wan Wan.” Fan Chen quickly grabbed Mi Wan.
“You want to protect him?” Mi Wan said disappointedly.
One of the main reasons why she rejected Fan Chen’s confession several times in the first place was that she was afraid that one day the two of them would have different stances and then confront each other. Although Fan Chen had repeatedly promised that he would strictly abide by the rules set by the Demon Clan and the Demon Hunters Association, and would never tolerate evil demons, Mi Wan was still a little worried in his heart. So when she saw Fan Chen stopping her, she immediately became disappointed.
“I didn’t. You need to listen to what he has to say first. Besides, there is no news recently about a large number of humans being poisoned.” Fan Chen explained patiently.
Mi Wan was stunned for a moment, then gradually calmed down, definitely giving Fan Chen face and letting the shark demon finish his words. So, she looked at the shark demon and continued to ask: “Did you drive away those fish carrying the virus?”
The shark demon said this deliberately. He just wanted to see how this pair would react when the human and demon clans were in conflict. How would this interracial couple who seemed to be in love respond. Unexpectedly, this male demon was very rational and actually resolved the conflict he deliberately created.
How could Fan Chen fail to see the shark demon’s thoughts? He suddenly became angry and the demon power around him began to go manic.
He was angry, but the shark demon was not afraid. This was the sea and even if he could not beat him, he could still run away.
“Originally, we were going to drive them away, but Old Turtle returned to the sea. After he came back, he performed a great purification spell that purified all the viruses from those fish.” The shark demon said with great pity.
“Why did you do that?” Although the other party did not successfully use these sea fish to poison humans, attempted murder was still a crime.
“You are very angry~~” The shark demon looked at the angry human girl.
“Do I still need to thank you?” Mi Wan said angrily.
“I remember that you humans have a kind of virtue, which is that you don’t know how to pick up gold.” The shark demon grinned, showing an extremely terrifying smile, “What I do is considered as returning to you the things that you humans have thrown into our sea. Isn’t that right? And it’s fair to pick up the gold and send it back in person, isn’t it.”
Fan Chen’s expression darkened, and a complicated look appeared in his eyes. Was this really the case?
After meeting Fan Chen, Mi Wan subconsciously learned a lot about environmental protection. Of course, she knew how seriously humans had polluted nature in recent hundreds of years, and ocean pollution was especially serious. Years ago, countless marine garbage suddenly appeared on the coasts of the East China Sea. She guessed at that time that it might be caused by a certain big demon in the sea. Listening to what the shark demon said just now, was this virus also caused by human pollution?
“Where did this virus come from?” Mi Wan asked.
“Do you suspect that I poisoned those sea fish?” The shark demon saw Mi Wan’s thoughts at a glance, and said with a smile, “I am a shark. My cultivation skills are mainly focused on body training and strengthening of force. Toxins are things that I can’t control. When I’m in a bad mood, I’ll bump into a few passing boats for fun. The poison on these sea fish is evolved by the sea fish after eating the garbage you humans throw into the sea. What I do is just send them offshore earlier. Even if I don’t drive them away, these fish will swim there by themselves in a few years.” He drove them away in advance to prevent these fish from continuing to infect other marine life, and every time humans learnt a lesson, they would stop for a while, although they would then quickly find a way to deal with it.
With a “buzz” sound, the black iron sword suspended in the sky returned to Mi Wan’s hand, losing its cold killing intent.
“I’m sorry.” Mi Wan couldn’t help but apologize.
Not a single piece of garbage in the sea was thrown away by her, but as a human being, she enjoyed all the resources brought by the pollution of the sea. In the process of human development, the harm to the natural environment and the demon clan was real, but as a demon hunter, she still had to protect humans.
