Mi Wan froze, and the fingers holding the phone tightened unconsciously. The joints turned pale. She used all her strength to control herself from raising her head. Fan Chen was back. When did he come in?
“What’s wrong? I’ve been away for so long and you don’t want to see me.” Fan Chen chuckled and looked at the girl in front of him who had her head lowered.
Mi Wan shook her head desperately, but still didn’t have the courage to raise her head.
“I was seriously injured this time to purify the virus.” Fan Chen sighed and squatted in front of the girl.
Mi Wan’s back stiffened suddenly, and guilt came over her like waves.
“I originally wanted to find a place to recover from my injuries before coming to see you, but after thinking about it, I thought I shouldn’t do this. I should let you see my wounds and let you know how good I am to you, this way, you will never leave me in the future.” Fan Chen stretched out his hand, hooked the girl’s chin, and slowly applied force.
Following Fan Chen’s movements, Mi Wan’s face was revealed, full of tears and red eyes, which made Fan Chen feel extremely distressed. The relaxed smile that was originally hanging on the corner of his mouth disappeared in an instant.
The moment he raised her head, Mi Wan looked uncontrollably at Fan Chen’s chest. Looking at the black hole that was indeed much larger than before, Mi Wan felt as if her heart had been pierced by a sword.
“Cry.” Fan Chen sighed. Before he came, he prepared a basket of words to ease Mi Wan’s guilt. But when he saw Mi Wan’s expression at this time, he understood that what Mi Wan needed most at this time was to cry.
He pressed the person directly on his chest.
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu” Mi Wan finally couldn’t control it and cried loudly, “The injury on your chest, the injury on your chest, wuwu…”
“It’s okay, just practice for a while and it will be fine. Whenever I will offer sacrifices every spring, it will always be like this.”
“But after the spring festival, nature will give you feedback, but what about this time? Will there be feedback this time?” Mi Wan asked.
Fan Chen was silent and did not answer. This time the wind was not for the growth of all things, so naturally there were no grown flowers and plants to respond to him.
“Five hundred years, five hundred years, you only had a wound the size of a fist on your chest, but because of my words, just because of my words, the damage caused to you is worth the past five hundred years.”
“Nonsense, two hundred years at most.” Fan Chen immediately retorted.
“How long have we known each other? I just, I just…” It took billions of human beings in the world five hundred years to hurt Fan Chen like this, but it only took her half a year and just one sentence.
Fan Chen originally wanted say that he blamed her, because if he said it, Mi Wan would feel better, but as he listened, he couldn’t bear it anymore. So, he stopped her and said, “Don’t talk, listen to me.”
“You did nothing wrong. If it were me, I would do the same thing as you. In fact, I indulged you in the beginning and helped you in everything because I knew you could cure demons.” Fan Chen didn’t lie. Not long after they met, Mi Wan discovered the injury on his chest and threatened to help him treat it. At that time, he became curious about Mi Wan. It was also for this reason that he showed great patience towards this demon hunter who frequently broke into his life.
“Later, you cured the sparrow spirit’s poison, and prevented the little eagle from self-destructing, as well as the dog monster.” Fan Chen recalled, “I thought at the time, this human demon hunter can actually cure our demon race. There is no other cure for the demon poison. I must find a way to let this human demon hunter cure all the demon poison in our demon clan.”
“But you didn’t directly ask me to help you at that time.” Mi Wan said.
“That’s because we weren’t a couple at that time. If it were now, I would definitely speak directly.” Fan Chen said decisively.
Mi Wan didn’t know if Fan Chen would really do this, but after hearing this, she felt much better.
“I was originally thinking about how I would find a way for you to treat the demons infected with demon poison, but you took the initiative to open a pet hospital and helped the demon clan treat their demon poison even going against the Demon Hunter Association. I was very happy at the time.” Fan Chen seemed really happy. When he talked about it, a smile appeared on his face unconsciously.
“But… I did it to make money.”
“You can only spend a few thousand on snacks for a month. A demon costs a million. You make so much money without spending it and you have to go to the pet hospital every day. Did you even take a break during the New Year?” Fan Chen asked, “I know you didn’t really believe what I said at that time, but you wanted to save more demons, so that’s why you did that, right?”
Mi Wan lay on Fan Chen’s side chest, without speaking.
“You are a demon hunter. It is already good to do this for the demon clan.” Fan Chen affirmed Mi Wan’s behavior.
“But…but I still didn’t trust you enough. I still have so many scruples. Unlike you, who can help mankind without hesitation.” Mi Wan said guiltily.
“We are different. I have lived too long, longer than you can imagine, and the things I have seen and known cannot be understood by ordinary people. I have witnessed all the things you are still doubting and fumbling about, so I can do many things directly, but you can’t. As a demon hunter, your mission is to guard against demons and protect humans. It’s already good that you can do this.” Fan Chen said sincerely, “And I saw it just now. For my sake, you planned to teach the method of removing demon poison and order every demon catcher to learn it. In this way, our demon tribe will no longer have to worry about demon poison.”
“But none of what I have done will hurt me but you…” Mi Wan stretched out her hand to point to the injury on Fan Chen’s chest, and her eyes turned red again, “I originally wanted to heal your injury.”
Now, not only had it not been cured, it had become worse again.
“I don’t want you to heal my injury.” Fan Chen said with a bitter smile, “I hope my injury will not heal within a hundred years.”
“Why?” Mi Wan asked confused.
“Because… I am Jianmu.” Fan Chen suddenly said.
Mi Wan was startled, stood up and looked at Fan Chen: “It’s impossible. Jianmu is a legendary sacred tree that cannot transform. If you were Jianmu, how could you transform into a human form?”
As a demon hunter, Mi Wan naturally also understood part of the history of the demon clan. Jianmu was the original life in the world and the first demon in the world. However, because Jianmu’s power was too great, he was restricted to the place of his birth by the laws of nature and could never appear in the world.
“Yes, under normal circumstances, I cannot transform into a human form because my power is too strong. Under the suppression of the laws of nature, I can only instinctively adjust the movement of the seasons while sleeping.” Fan Chen explained, “I am the only immortal demon in the world, but my existence is actually no different from death, because only when big changes occur in the human world, such as when the demon clan is about to be destroyed, or the ecology is about to collapse, can I wake up from my deep sleep, transform into human form and walk in the world. My existence is to save the world, so saving mankind is actually my responsibility.”
“Then if your injury is healed and the ecological environment returns to normal, then…” Mi Wan did not dare to think further.
“I will fall into deep sleep again until the next catastrophe.” Fan Chen smiled bitterly and said what Mi Wan did not dare to say.
“Then…then you…” Mi Wan grabbed Fan Chen’s sleeve and turned pale with anxiety.
“Don’t worry about it blindly. You humans only have a lifespan of a hundred years. I have already lived a long time when I woke up this time.” Fan Chen said with a smile, “And if you are gone and I don’t go to sleep, I will be very lonely living alone. Yes. Wanwan, I’ve done the math. I should be able to persist for more than a hundred years. Can you live to be one hundred and twenty years old?”
“I will try my best.” After a moment of silence, Mi Wan replied solemnly.
“It’s settled then.” Fan Chen agreed happily.
