Jiuli leaned lazily on the chair, one hand on the back of the chair and the other hand casually placed on his leg. He looked very relaxed and comfortable.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was half asleep, and seemed to care nothing about anything around him.

However, in reality, his eyes would fall on Yun Yuan from time to time, observing her every move imperceptibly.

During this period of time, he had been secretly observing her, and she behaved normally. Except for being occasionally called over by the Third Prince to discuss the art of playing the zither, she stayed quietly in the zither courtyard at other times, more obedient than the servants in the mansion.

Most goblins have some preferences and natures that are different from those of ordinary people. For example, cat goblins like to eat fish, pig goblins like to sleep, mouse goblins like to dig holes to hide things, and monkeys like to scratch their ears and cheeks.

Yun Yuan did not have this kind of habit. If it was any other woman, Jiu Li would not notice it, but he found the same kind of aura in her. Although it was very faint, it could not fool him.

Yun Yuan's perception ability has improved a lot after training. She can sense Jiuli's gaze on her and smiles at him.

Jiuli was startled and looked away.

After three rounds of tea, the prince talked about things in the palace.

"Father has been increasingly dissolute recently. My second brother presented a common beauty to him. He was very pleased and asked me to tell you, Jiuli, to make some elixirs for him."

Although no one said what kind of elixir was to be refined, everyone present knew it.

Jiuli was basking in the sun, feeling calm and relaxed, and spoke lazily.

"This country master doesn't want to dirty his own alchemy furnace. If the emperor wants, you can ask him to tell me personally."

The Third Prince grinned: "You know that your father is afraid of you, especially when he asks you to refine that kind of elixir. He doesn't have the nerve to ask for it personally."

"Then I will pretend I don't know." In the entire court, only Jiuli dared to say such treasonous words.

Speaking of elixirs, the Third Prince couldn't help but think of what the court officials had been discussing recently.

I don't know what my father was thinking, but he actually started pursuing immortality just like the late emperor. A few days ago, he openly asked the imperial teacher to find him an elixir of immortality in the court.

He asked Jiuli: "Are you really going to find the elixir of life?"

"There is no elixir of life." Jiuli said, "Birth, aging, illness and death are the laws of nature. We cannot go against the will of heaven. People who practice cultivation, even gods, will one day perish. How can mortals achieve true immortality? They can only delay aging."

The Third Prince nodded repeatedly after hearing this. When he heard the last sentence, he became interested: "Can you keep your face young?"

He looked eager, and the prince also had a probing look on his face. Who doesn't desire eternal youth? Even they cannot avoid it.

Jiuli glanced at them leisurely and said, "There is indeed a way. If you want to know, just exchange it for the corresponding things."

The third prince opened his fan with a "snap" and fanned himself gracefully. The breeze brushed across his forehead, lifting a few strands of hair and making him look even more elegant and majestic.

"As long as I can stay young, I'm willing to exchange anything, no matter how precious it is. What else do I have that you don't have?"

Jiuli looked in the direction of Yun Yuan, hinting at something.

The Third Prince shook his head and whispered, "She can't do that. Shiqin is not a fairy. Stop staring at her."

Jiuli retracted his gaze and chuckled: "Then there is nothing we can do. When you are willing to let him go, I will tell you a way."

The third prince was depressed.

Jiuli shook his head slightly.

In fact, they all misunderstood him. It was true that he was staring at Yun Yuan, but he had no intention of hurting her.

There are many demon catchers in the world. They regard the bones, blood and Yuandan of demons as treasures to improve their cultivation. They capture and kill demons crazily, making the world a world full of danger and killing. For demons, this is not a suitable place for them to survive.

As for why he wanted her to show up when he first met her, it was just to let the person who was fascinated by her see clearly and not invest too much in it.

Humans and demons have different paths, and love between humans and demons is against common sense and will not have a good result. This truth has been proven by the blood of countless ancestors.

If Yun Yuan is really a demon, then it is fine that she is exposed by him. He will personally escort her back to the demon world. The entrance to the demon world is not far away, near the Puling Temple outside the capital.

If she revealed her identity outside and was seen by someone with ulterior motives, the consequences would be disastrous.

Yun Yuan was not paying attention to the conversation over there. She was talking to the system while playing the piano.

[Which ones are A in this plane? 】

System: [There are several, but compared to humans, the original owner is more inclined to combine with monsters and give birth to monster babies. The national teacher Jiuli is a good example, and his original form is a nine-tailed fox.]

Yun Yuan looked at Jiuli in surprise. What a coincidence, there were also foxes in this dimension. She recalled Rong Xi from her previous life and wondered how he was doing.

[The elders of the fox tribe said that fairies cannot interfere with human karma. Then, wouldn't Jiuli be affected by the karma of the human world if he became the national teacher of Xuanyuan Country? ]

[It depends on the situation. If it is a contribution to the country, then it is a great contribution to the people of the world. This is what the heaven encourages the fairies to do. There are merits to be bestowed. As long as the merits are sufficient, not only will the speed of cultivation not be slowed down, but it is also possible to ascend to heaven in broad daylight.]

[Then can the original owner cultivate merits without repaying the favor? ]

[That won't work. Even if you have done good deeds, you still have to repay the favors you owe. Even if it's Jiuli, it's the same.]

Yun Yuan thought thoughtfully: [Since Jiuli is a fox, I don’t have to be afraid of him. He kept staring at me, and I thought he wanted to catch me, so he kept hiding.]

System: [You'd better be careful. Jiuli has hidden the fact that he is a goblin very well, and no human knows about it. If you stand up and tell him that you know his identity, do you think he will help you or kill you? ]

[No, I have to do good deeds. I haven't done anything wrong. You can't kill me!]

[The host examines the question carefully. Human cause and effect, that is the human world!

I told you, because a great demon caused chaos thousands of years ago, the human world became a purgatory and countless lives were destroyed, so the heavens in this plane are extremely displeased with demons.

Monsters have now reached the point where anyone can kill them. God will not punish you for killing a monster. This is why countless monster catchers are so unscrupulous. They are already looking for the entrance to the monster world.

Jiuli could not ascend to the Nine-tailed state even after cultivating. This was because of the pressure from the Heavenly Dao. In addition to improving his cultivation, he cultivated merits to gain the favor of the Heavenly Dao.

Yun Yuan: […Are all the fairies in this plane so humble? ]

[What do you think? Monsters have the lowest status among the six tribes. In the previous life, the hero and heroine killed the original owner but were not rejected by the heavens and lost their luck, so you should take it easy.]

Yun Yuan thought of a question: [Since fairies are not recognized by the Heavenly Dao, then if I give birth to a fairy baby in the future, it will also be disliked by the Heavenly Dao, right? Then wouldn’t it be a punishment for me to give birth to them? ]

If a child is born to suffer, she would rather not have it.

[Ah, this...] The system was silent.

Yun Yuan pondered: [Can my Mother Earth Godhead be used in this plane? ]
