After sending Mi Wan home, Fan Chen returned to the living room with a cold face, looking at Quan Juncai, waiting for him to speak.
“Sir.” Quan Juncai shouted uneasily. He had been with Fan Chen for more than three hundred years. Most of the time, Fan Chen was gentle and seldom got angry. But this time, he clearly felt Fan Chen’s anger.
The Lord was very angry and seemed a little disappointed.
“Why did you go to Country G?” Fan Chen asked.
“I… wanted to see if there was any way to persuade Country G to stop testing nuclear weapons.” Quan Juncai answered truthfully.
“What’s the result?” Fan Chen asked.
Quan Juncai shook his head with despair.
Fan Chen was silent for a moment, then his expression softened, he turned around and sat on the sofa in the living room, and said, “I know you went to country G to prevent me from falling asleep early, but I also told you about this matter. It doesn’t do much harm to me. I’ll just go to sleep, and sooner or later I will fall asleep again.”
“What about Master Mi? What about your hundred-year agreement?” Quan Juncai asked.
A year ago, Quan Juncai would never have made this trip to Country G. As the Lord himself said, his end was destined to be a deep sleep. Whether the earth’s ecology was restored or completely collapsed, the end result for the Lord was to fall asleep again. Moreover, the Lord seemed to have lived a boring life for the past five hundred years. Apart from restoring the ecology, he did not have much nostalgia for this world. Even towards the humans who had been destroying the earth, the Lord had always maintained a normal attitude. There was no hatred or anger, just like a programmed computer program, he fulfilled his mission conscientiously.
But today’s Lord was different. He had plans and things he wanted to do. He would be so excited by a kiss that he couldn’t control his demonic power and let the flowers bloom. He would also spend hours looking for delicious restaurants online. He even quietly asked him how he should propose to Master Mi after she graduated from college so that she would never forget it. But all this had not been done yet.
“I made an agreement with Wanwan that when I leave, I will take her with me.” Fan Chen replied.
“Are you willing to do so?” Quan Juncai asked.
“…We’ll know then.” Yes, until now, Fan Chen didn’t know whether he would take Mi Wan to sleep with him. He was serious when he promised Mi Wan, and he really wanted to take Mi Wan to sleep with him. But the original agreement was established for a hundred years later, and their lives a hundred years later would not be considered short-lived. But now, only half a year later, he didn’t know if he was cruel enough to take Mi Wan away with him, even though he knew Mi Wan would be willing, even though he really wanted to.
“You didn’t even tell Master Mi about this.” Quan Juncai revealed Fan Chen’s heart with one sentence. If he really wanted to take Master Mi away, he would not hide this matter from her at all.
“What news did you get when you went to Country G this time?” Fan Chen hesitated and changed the topic.
“G country has sealed off the desert. Within three days, nuclear weapons are likely to be tested.” Quan Juncai replied with difficulty.
“Three days~~~” Fan Chen didn’t seem surprised about this time. Now that Country M was pressing too hard, Country G’s actions would naturally not be slow.
“If you had not blown that purifying wind…” Quan Juncai had always been worried about the spring breeze that Fan Chen used to help Master Mi purify the virus. If his body had not been damaged by the virus last time, this time’s nuclear weapons may not have been effective. It might not have made the Lord fall asleep early.
“Actually, there is no difference.” Fan Chen knew what Quan Juncai was thinking and said, “Do you think the only country in the world that is developing nuclear weapons is country G? In order to enhance the strength of their own country, humans who are capable are secretly developing them.”
“My lord…” Quan Juncai was surprised. The lord was Jianmu and could sense all the ecologically damaging behaviors on the earth. So what he was saying was that many countries were secretly developing it or even testing it on a small scale without the knowledge of the world?
“I’ll give you something.” Fan Chen raised his hand to grab the ground, and then the entire living room floor began to shake. Circles of demonic power overflowed, as if some huge barrier was opening.
Separated by a wall from the Mi family’s old house, Mi Wan glanced out the window in surprise, but in the end did not explore too much.
The powerful demonic power surged up layer by layer. Quan Juncai was a great demon at the peak of the eighth level. At this time, he could not withstand the shock of the demonic power, and his face turned pale and was about to collapse. Just when he couldn’t stand it anymore and wanted to cast a spell to protect himself, the shocking demon power finally receded, and then several huge tangled vines emerged from the ground. There seemed to be something wrapped in the center of these tangled vines, and a faint light overflowed from the vines.
Fan Chen moved his fingers slightly and stroked the vine. The tangled vines loosened one by one, revealing the thing wrapped in the middle. It was a black token. It was not big. It was engraved with countless complex patterns, and there were three ancient characters in the center that were very eye-catching. Bursts of golden light shot out from the token, exuding boundless majesty.
“This is…” Quan Juncai took a step back with a pale face and almost knelt down.
“This is the Demon King’s Token.” Fan Chen waved, holding the suspended token in his hand and explaining, “This is what I took from Peng Yan five hundred years ago. The Demon King’s Token commands the group of demons and the power of nature, because of my special status, I cannot use it, so I could only seal it underground. Now, I give it to you.”
Fan Chen handed the Demon King Token to Quan Juncai.
“Sir!” Quan Juncai was really frightened this time. With a bang, he knelt down on one knee and refused to accept the Demon King’s Token.
“Although I have been trying to restore the natural ecology in a gentle way over the years, I also know in my heart that humans and demons will not awaken without going through labor pains.” Fan Chen said, “Once I am too weak and forced to go to sleep, the earth’s ecology will usher in a wave of great changes. Earthquakes, fires, and tsunamis will come one after another.”
“Nature is angry?”
“Absolutely. After I sleep, my instinctive consciousness is too weak, and the possibility of stopping it is very small, so the demon clan I leave it to you.” Fan Chen said, “But don’t worry, I have restored most of the earth’s ecology over the years, and human beings are gradually awakening to their environmental awareness, so even if nature is angry, it will not turn into a catastrophe. This is the so-called without breaking there can be no new establishment, maybe my deep sleep is the real opportunity for humans and demons to join hands to protect the earth.”
Although Fan Chen repeatedly warned the demons that if humans perished, the demons could not survive alone, but most of the demons didn’t think so. They only saw that the human race was destroying nature, and while the demon race was enjoying the convenience brought by human technological progress with peace of mind, they forgot their original responsibility to protect nature. It seemed that as long as it was not the demons themselves who were being destroyed, the demons could condemn humans from the moral high ground. But if the demon clan tried its best to restore nature when humans were over-exploiting it, why would the ecological environment collapse like this?
He had never been able to find the opportunity needed to achieve a balance between supply and output between humans and demons.
“Special Assistant Quan, please remember that for the earth to become like this, it is not only a problem for humans, but also the demon clan itself. It’s a pity that in the past five hundred years, I haven’t done a good enough job of making them realize this.” Fan Chen continued, “After I fall asleep, you take the Demon King’s Token and protect the demon clan as much as possible. Repair nature after the catastrophe and find a new balance point with humans.”
“Sir!” Quan Juncai’s eyes were red, and he knew that if the master could say such words, he was already ready to fall asleep completely.
“Take it.” Fan Chen once again handed the Demon King’s Token forward.
Quan Juncai gritted his teeth and reached out to take it. The moment he took the demon king’s order, he was almost suffocated by a huge force of majesty. Just when Quan Juncai was almost unable to hold the Demon King Token, a palm-long green vine suddenly floated into Quan Juncai’s palm. One end of the vine was connected to the Demon King Token, and the other end tied tightly to Quan Juncai’s hand. And in the vines, there was a gentle but domineering force that connected the Demon King Token and Quan Juncai. As this connection deepened, Quan Juncai slowly adapted to the majesty of the Demon King Token and was finally able to hold the Demon King Token like an ordinary object.
“This is the Qiankun Vine.” Fan Chen continued to introduce, “I can’t allocate too much of my power to the Qiankun Vine now, but with the recovery of the natural ecology, the Qiankun Vine will absorb the power of nature and continue to grow and will eventually become complete. When the next time the demon clan encounters a big crisis, you can wake me up again through the Qiankun Vine.”
“Can you wake up again?” Quan Juncai held the Qiankun Vine in his hand in surprise. Although this Qiankun Vine was short but the power contained in it was far greater than the one the Lord had placed in his nephew Xiao Rui’s body.
“I won’t wake up unless there is a major disaster. Although I don’t want the demon clan to experience another disaster, it is probably unlikely. So… next time I wake up, I hope the demon king will still be you.” Fan Chen said.
“Subordinate… will do my best.”
“Go away and don’t come to see me these days.” Fan Chen issued an order to expel guests.
“Yes.” Quan Juncai didn’t say much. He knew that giving him the Demon King Order was the master’s final arrangement for the demon clan. The remaining time was left to Master Mi.
After Quan Juncai left, Fan Chen returned to the second floor. As soon as he entered the bedroom, he heard the sound of the window opening on the opposite side. Fan Chen smiled, walked to the window naturally, and looked across.
In the window opposite, Mi Wan was wearing milky white pajamas and leaning out half of her body to look towards him. She opened her mouth and was about to speak when she saw Fan Chen suddenly flash across and teleport over.
Mi Wan turned around hurriedly, and as soon as she turned her head, she ran into a refreshing embrace.
“Ouch.” Mi Wan covered her head and complained, “Why are you standing so close.”
“Let me see.” Fan Chen pushed the girl’s hand away, then reached out and gently rubbed Mi Wan’s sore head.
Although the bump just now was a bit sudden, it didn’t actually hurt. It was just that Mi Wan liked the feeling of Fan Chen rubbing her forehead carefully, so she squinted her eyes and enjoyed it with a smile. Like all normal and independent women, they always wanted to do something small when the person they liked forced them.
“Wan Wan, when will you start youe exams?” Fan Chen suddenly asked.
“There are still ten days.” Mi Wan counted the time and replied.
“Then can you take three days off?” Fan Chen asked again.
Mi Wan’s squinted eyes suddenly opened, and Fan Chen stopped rubbing her forehead. The two stared at each other at a very close distance for several seconds, and the air seemed to be still for a while.
“Okay.” Mi Wan raised her hand, took Fan Chen’s hand off her forehead, and held it tightly.
“Wan Wan, I might… go to sleep early.” Fan Chen smiled bitterly, but finally said it.
“Okay.” Mi Wan was stunned, but still responded naturally. It turned out that Fan Chen’s mood was not right during this period, and it was because of this incident.
“Can I take you away?” Fan Chen asked again, “I’ll be taking you away a hundred years in advance.”
Mi Wan pulled Fan Chen’s collar fiercely, forcing him to look at her level, and then threatened him fiercely: “You dare try to leave me.”
After Fan Chen was stunned for a moment, a smile suddenly overflowed on his face. He hugged Mi Wan tightly in his arms as he was being pulled and promised: “I don’t dare. I don’t dare.”
Fan Chen thought, he had saved so many people in the past five hundred years, so it wouldn’t matter if he took one away now.
