Married to the One Who Is Not Human

Chapter 25: Chapter 25 The Shame of Men



The people of the imperial court to suppress the demon division are wearing scarlet clothes with a stranger's sword, crimson clothes such as streaming flames, under the hem of the clothes are embroidered with auspicious clouds and beasts, very easy to recognize.

 Therefore, when Qin Du and the others rode their horses and escorted a carriage to the Chen family, they attracted many people along the way to look at them.

 Soon, the fact that the court had sent people from the Demon Suppression Division to celebrate the birthday of the Chen family's old master spread throughout Qing Yu City.

 The people of Green Feather City showed pride, feeling very proud that this was a sign that the imperial court valued Green Feather City and the Chen Family.

 As the birthday of the Chen family's old master was approaching, the Chen family had kept their doors open for nearly half a month to welcome guests.

 Seeing a line of people dressed in scarlet from afar stepping on the setting sun, a clever guard had already hurriedly turned around and entered the residence to report.

 When the carriage arrived, the Chen Clan's family head brought the Chen Clan members to welcome them out.

 "Greetings to the Chen family head!"

 Ji Buhuan dismounted with the disciples of the Ji Clan, and Qin Budu and the others also gave the Chen Clan's family head a few moments of face, dismounting and saluting.

 The Chen Clan Master had a smiling face, a look of surprise on his face, his eyes looking towards the carriage, arching his hand and saying, "Young Lord Ji and Lord Jiang have traveled a long way to meet you, I hope to apologize for the loss."

 The Chen Clan members behind the Chen Family Lord looked up at the carriage, their gazes flickering slightly.

 If it was only the young lord of the Ji family that had come, it wouldn't have been so grand for them to personally welcome him, however, the Imperial City Demon Suppression Division's Commanding Envoy, Jiang Ruqiu, had also come, representing the imperial court as well, so they had to raise their spirits and didn't dare to treat them with negligence.

 Although Jiang Ruqiu was also from the Yunjing Jiang family, he was different from the previous Commander of the Demon Suppression Division, Jiang Zhaoshan, if Jiang Zhaoshan was a stable person, then his methods were more secretive and reckless.

 Moreover, his strength was even more unfathomable.

 The incident that happened at the Crescent Moon Villa had already spread to various forces, and although they were shocked at the hidden conspiracy behind the Crescent Moon Villa, yet hearing that Jiang Ruichiu had killed the rebellious demons and evils with his own strength at that time still shocked them to the core.

 Because of this, the world had a deep impression of Jiang Ruqiu.

 This person was extremely not to be messed with and should never be messed with.

 In comparison, the matter of Jiang Ruqiu joining the Ji Family for the sake of Young Lord Ji was nothing, after all, strong people had the backbone to act recklessly, and no one could really control what he wanted to do.

 In the midst of the Chen Family Master and the others waiting respectfully, a bony hand lifted the curtain of the car, and the man dressed in scarlet brocade got out of the car calmly.

 He didn't pay attention to those people, but instead turned around and helped the woman dressed in green clothes inside the car out of the car.

 Because of the Chen family's grand welcome, the area around the Chen family was extremely quiet, and the people passing by subconsciously held their breath, not daring to get close, watching from afar.

 Not only were they intimidated by the might of the Demon Suppression Division, but they were also amazed by Commander Jiang's declining sun in the west like a demon's appearance.

 Rumor has it that Jiang Ruiqiu has a stunning face that is even better than that of a demon, and it is said that if you see him for a second, you will be taken in by his heart, but now you know that it is true.

 The crowd forgot to react for a while.

 Until the woman being supported by Jiang Ruqiu raised her eyes to look over, that exquisite pale face revealed a few smiles, and spoke in a warm voice: "Chen family master, haven't seen you for a long time, have you been well lately?"

 As she spoke, she faintly swept a glance at the Chen family members present.

 When those Chen family members saw her looking over, their hearts inexplicably tightened, then thinking that Shang Yunxiao and his wife were not here, they sighed with relief.

 If it was in the past, they wouldn't be so nervous.

 The Ji family had suffered heavy losses in the battle twenty years ago, and was already on the decline, no longer as strong as it once was. The Chen family is naturally not afraid of anything when facing the Ji family, even if Shang Yunxiao rebelled against the Ji family and joined the Chen family instead, the Chen family is just keeping an extra idler.

 But when the commanding officer of the Imperial City Demon Suppression Division joined the Ji family, it was a different story.

 The Chen family master seems like he doesn't know what the clansmen around him are thinking, the smile on his face remains unchanged, and his tone of voice has become a bit more cordial: "Thank you for caring about the young master of the Ji family, but is the old Taijun of the Ji family okay?"

 Xu Ji Chen Pei four families are connected by the same breath, the Chen family master at this time will take Ji fish as a younger generation to see.

 Ji Yu gently replied, "Grandmother's health is fine, but she had an attack of an old disease a year ago."

 Demon removers rarely live a life free of disasters and pain, every time they fight with demons, even if they are careful, there will be some after-effects, even if they are as strong as Elder Taijun Ji, there are many old illnesses that have fallen on their bodies.

 This was also the reason why demon eliminators seldom had a good end.

 The two of them exchanged a few pleasantries, and the Chen Family Master did not forget Jiang Ruiqiu, the Commander of the Demon Suppression Division, and greeted him politely.

 According to reason, the Chen Family Master should have greeted Jiang Ruqiu first, but he hadn't reacted for a while earlier, and it was Ji Yu who broke the silence before exchanging pleasantries with her in a smooth manner.

 However, the Chen family master noticed that neither Jiang Ruqiu nor the people from the Demon Suppressor Division seemed to feel slack.

 Qin Du and the others certainly didn't feel slack.

 In these days, they had long since been tossed out of temper by Jiang Ruiqiu, and knew how unprincipled and cheap their Commanding Envoy was in front of Young Lord Ji, which could be called a man's shame.

 Anyway, as long as Young Lord Ji was around, everything had to retreat a shot.

 Is there a problem with the Chen Family Lord greeting Young Lord Ji first?

 Not at all!

 It wasn't called slacking off, they commanders couldn't wait for everyone to do the same.

 Facing the Chen family master, Jiang Ruiqiu had nothing on his face to smile about, and could even be said to be very cold, with a few hints of open arrogance.

 The Chen family master also does not care, smilingly welcome them into the house.

 Just as they were about to enter the mansion, they heard a sound of horses' hooves coming from behind them, everyone turned their heads to look over and realized that it was a group of Chen Family disciples led by Chen Qingchu who had also returned.

 "Eldest uncle!" Seeing the Chen Family Master, Chen Qingchou leapt off his horse and came striding over.

 The Chen Family Master was still unaware of what had happened at the city gates earlier, and when he saw him return, he revealed a smile and said, "Qingchou is back, Young Lord Ji and Lord Jiang have just arrived, so come over here and greet them."

 He thought to himself, no matter how much Chen Qingchou had been fooling around, he and Young Lord Ji were in the end full siblings, so there was no such thing as overnight enmity. It's good to talk things over between siblings.

 Unfortunately, the Chen family master had the intention to pull strings for the two siblings and ease their relationship, but the person in question did not appreciate it.

 Chen Qingchou's face was furious, and he was stalking his neck in silence.

 Ji Yu's gaze faintly swept over him, with no intention of trying to be a good sister to give him a leg up.

 Jiang Ruiqiu was even more direct, frowning, "Chen family master, this is a disciple of your Chen family? How could he be so rude?"

 The Chen Family Master was stunned, not knowing what he meant.

 Chen Qingchu reddened and glared at him angrily, "Jiang Ruqiu, even if you are the Commander of the Demon Suppression Division, you can't insult people like this!"

 "Shut up!" The Chen family head snapped, hurriedly saying to Jiang Ruqiu, "Lord Jiang forgive me, Qingchou is still young, perhaps there is some kind of misunderstanding ..."

 "Not a misunderstanding!" Qin Du smiled and opened his mouth, "The Chen family's ninth prince is so imposing, he accuses others when he meets, I don't know where he gets his backbone? Could it be that he also put to death some demonic creature that plagued a party, to do away with harm for the people?"

 In the people and the country, there is no merit and no work, how can he have the face to accuse them of the Demon Suppression Division?

 Towards the end, the tone of his voice was sober and murderous that it came out.

 Chen Qing Rut's face turned white, in the end, he was still a teenager, showing a bit of fear.

 The Chen family master was also secretly frightened.

 What a thick killing aura!

 He had heard that Qin Du was specially trained by the imperial court to deal with demons and evils all day long, and his favorite place to go was to hunt and kill those powerful demons and evils, and countless demons and evils had died in his hands, and with his bloody murderous aura, even the demons and evils couldn't stand it.

 Today, it seems that it is not a misinformation.

 Seeing the atmosphere stiffen, the Chen family head was cold and sweaty.

 As the Chen Family's family head, it had been a long time since someone had been so disrespectful to him, or had lost face to the Chen Family members in the Chen Family's territory. If it were usual, the Chen Family Head would have been enraged and had the evil guests blown out the door.

 But today's guests are not his to blast, even if the other side face to face interrogation, do not give face to the Chen family, the Chen family can not directly send guests.

 The Chen family master fixed his mind and opened his mouth, "Lord Qin, is there some kind of misunderstanding?"

 Qin Du laughed coldly, staring morosely at Chen Qingchou, his gaze like a knife, seemingly plucking out his flesh piece by piece.

 Chen Qingtse was silenced, where was his previous arrogance.

 Even if his talent was good, and he was favored by the Chen family's old master, in front of a madman like Qin Du who had his hands dyed in blood, he still couldn't hold out for a few minutes.

 If he didn't want to lose face, at this moment, he had already paralyzed on the ground with weak legs.

 The Chen family master which can not see Qin Du so is Jiang Ruqiu acquiescence, heart anxious, finally really have no choice, had to look to the more talkative Ji fish, to her to apologize.

 At this time, he did not care what face is not face, first survive this pass say.

 Ji Yu's gaze slowly slid over the cold and sweaty Chen Qingchu, and said in a faint voice: "Chen family head doesn't have to be like this, in the future, teach the child well."

 Chen Family Master reluctantly smiled, "Young Master Ji is right, Qingchou has indeed been spoiled."

 The atmosphere finally eased up, and the Chen Family Master went down the slope, hurriedly welcoming them into the mansion and having the butler send them to the guest house.

 A little later, the Chen family master finally realized what had happened at the city gates.

 The Chen family master incredulously surveyed Chen Qingchu, who was drenched in sweat, and wondered what in the world he was thinking of, actually daring to mess with the Demon Suppression Division's Commanding Envoy.

 That Jiang Ruiqiu wasn't someone who was easy to get along with, and he was able to live well only because Ji Yu didn't bother with him.

 Chen Qingchou was like a soupy chicken at this moment, where was his usual splendor.

 He stood there in a state of disorientation, and after his extreme fear, a look of indignation appeared on his face.

 Seeing this, the Chen Family Master knew that he hadn't learned his lesson at all.

 The Chen family master narrowed his eyes slightly and suddenly said, "Qingchou, in two days it will be the old master's birthday, the family is very busy, if you don't have anything to do, then go and accompany the old master."

 Save yourself from getting into trouble again.

 Chen Qingchou is not stupid, which did not hear his dislike, he said somewhat angrily: "Uncle, obviously they ..."

 "Shut up!" Chen family master snapped, "Who are they? One is your full sister, one is the Commander of the Demon Suppression Division, where is it up to you to be reckless?"

 Chen Qing Rut was unconvinced, her pretty face filled with a scowl, "So what? She is not my sister! Eldest uncle you know full well how she treated me back then, she almost killed me! Such a vicious woman, how do you expect me to treat her as my own sister?"

 Chen family master coughed lightly, "She was still small back then ... Not to mention, it was also you guys who were wrong in the first place."

 Hearing his defense for Ji Yu, Chen Qingchu was so angry that he wanted to kill someone, his eyes scarlet, "She was still small ... back then and she can do this to me? Then I'm not still small? I'm still a few years younger than her!"

 Chen family master was originally angry at him for getting into trouble, but at this time, when he saw this appearance, he was a little soft again.

 "Qing Rut, there was something else going on back then, you shouldn't think too much." He stepped forward and patted Chen Qingchou's back, "Alright, alright, you've been out for a day, you should be tired, go back and rest."

 Saying this, he had someone send him back.

 The Chen family master left with a headache to deal with other matters.

 This pair of siblings had to kill each other every time they met, and they didn't know when they could stop.

 **

 The Chen Family's guest house was huge, built on a hill with a tranquil environment, and in addition to the arrangement of servants and maidservants, there were also puppet attendants to wait on them, able to satisfy the needs of the guests.

 The Chen family mansion was built along the coast, and when you pushed open the window, you could see the sea.

 The setting sun had already disappeared into the other side of the sea, and there were a few strands of afterglow left in the sky.

 Under the twilight sky, the sea water was blue and rippling, and from time to time, one could see some green-winged birds flying from the depths of the blue waves and flying into the Chen family house.

 It so happened that a green luan bird landed on the tree in the guest courtyard.

 The green luan bird's call was pleasing to the ears, and when Red Image and Ji Bu Huan and the others heard it, they only felt their moods turn around, relaxing both physically and mentally.

 "These green luan are so adorably born." Red Image surveyed the green luan birds on the trees, "They can also put down demons and evils and subdue the sea, no wonder the people along the coast regard them as divine birds."

 Ji Bu Huan nodded with a smile, his gaze looking down towards the window.

 Outside the window was a hundred-foot-high cliff, and below it was raging seawater, waves lapping at the shore.

 The seawater was as deep as obscurity, presenting a deep dark shadow, as if there was something hidden underneath that dark shadow, teaching people not to dare to look more.

 Inside the house, Ji Yu sat by the window, looking out at the ocean in the twilight.

 The ocean's wide and deep, always let a person unconsciously fear a few points, fear of the ocean's danger, also fear from the ocean's calamity.

 The ocean was never gentle and calm.

 "Niangzi." Jiang Ruiqiu walked over and held her hand, "Why are you sitting here in the wind?"

 Lord Jiang now knew how to take care of a frail and sickly mortal, and had to worry about her health from time to time.

 Ji Yu turned her head to look at him, her eyebrows slightly arched, "It doesn't matter, it's already the middle of April, the weather is warm, it's not a big deal to blow in the wind. Moreover, the scenery here is quite nice."

 Despite saying so, she obediently let him close the window.

 Jiang Ruiqiu had someone fetch warm water over, twisted a handkerchief to clean her face and wash her hands, and then used a comb to comb her hair, while saying, "Mother, I hate that kid just now, can't I really kill him?"

 He said it in a cloudy manner, even his tone was a whine with intimacy, as if he was casually pinching an ant to death without the slightest bit of killing intent.

 Yet it was this kind of careless recklessness that was the most terrifying.

 Ji Yu's complexion lurched, turned her head to look at him, and said with a serious face, "Jiang Ruqiu, don't kill anyone."

 Jiang Ruqiu locked eyes with her, his long and good-looking fingers holding a strand of her black hair, gently twisting it between his fingers, like a husband and wife in a boudoir.

 A long time later, he abruptly smiled and softly said, "Okay, if your wife doesn't want me to kill, I won't."

 That kind of gentle and affectionate, as if the person in front of him is all he has, there is no should not.

 A smile appeared on the face of the seasonal fish, reached out and climbed his neck, toward him closer.

 His eyes such as the cold jade in the barren mountain, black without luster, obviously with a smile, but never stay in the eyes, always inadvertently, revealing belongs to the unique cold and vicious characteristics of demonic evil.

 At this moment, being stared at tightly by such a pair of eyes, Ji Yu's heart was beating hard, yet he did not retreat.

 Warm and cool lips pressed against his lips, so light that it was like a feather gliding over.

 The knot in the man's throat slid a few times, and soon turned against him, his movements urgent and ferocious, seeming to devour a person's will to the end of all time.

 As the sky darkened, the crockery lamp was lit in the house, the dizzying yellow light spreading out to dispel the gloom of darkness.

 Ji Yu wore a pair of bedclothes and prepared to go to bed.

 Jiang Ruiqiu was not there, having been called over by the people from the Demon Suppression Division earlier, and not knowing what was going on.

 Red Image brought medicine over and stared at her as she drank the medicine, while saying, "Disciples from the Xu Family and Pei Family arrived two days ago, as well as people from the Bixin Pavilion and the Demon Removal League have all arrived.... There are quite a lot of people who have come to celebrate the birthday of the Chen Family's Elder Dowager this time, so it looks like there's going to be a lot of excitement this time around."

 Ji Fish said, "This year is the Chen Family's old master's seventieth full birthday, it's only right that it should be more lively."

 Life is seventy years old, even for Demon Remover, the seventieth birthday is also taken seriously.

 Not to mention that the Chen family's old master was the Chen family's highest strength, his seventieth birthday, the Chen family naturally also valued it and wanted to have a good celebration for the old master.

 Red Image nodded her head and smiled, "Young Master, when our family's Old Taijun's seventieth birthday rolls around, let's also give her a big celebration."

 Elder Taijun Ji was in her sixties this year, and in a few years she would be entering her seventies.

 The Chen family's lively, red image think also can not be entrusted to the old lady.

 The old lady is quiet and doesn't like to get involved in all that nonsense, so I'm afraid she won't be willing to make a big deal out of it. But no matter, as long as the young master as the main to give her to do, I think the old lady will be touched by the young master a piece of filial piety, should not refuse.

 Ji fish nodded with a smile, she was raised by her grandmother, the feelings of the two grandchildren are not ordinary.

 If it was for her grandmother, it would be appropriate to organize it in any way.

 After drinking the medicine, Ji Yu's body was a bit resistant, so she went to bed to rest.

 Red Image tucks her in and says: "Lord Jiang doesn't know when he'll be back, young master you sleep first, I'll keep watch."

 Ji Yu gave a hmmm and asked, "Have they settled down, Senior Brother Bu Huan?"

 "Alright, alright, Young Lord doesn't need to worry." Red Image laughed, "They are strong and healthy, how do they need you to worry about them?"

 Ji Yu just smiled, she wasn't worrying about this.

 Earlier when they entered the door, they had lost the face of the Chen family not to mention that they had even chipped Chen Qingchu, they were only afraid that the Chen family would be unhappy in their hearts, and would not do anything on the surface, but they would be disgusted in some small matters.

 They are guests here, even if they are disgusted, they can only endure it.

 After Red Image went out, the house quieted down.

 Ji fish lying in the fragrant bedding, heard the sound of the sea outside lapping at the shore, waves burst, in the quiet night, the sound of the tide seems to be exploding in the heart.

 Ji Yu actually does not like the sound of the tide.

 This tide sound will remind her of some unpleasant past events.
