Chapter 1372: Chapter 1372: Ding-dong, the Black-hearted Apothecary Arrives! 31

The man with the black mask argued with Feng Xuan, then kicked a nearby tree.

"Why did you call me here?"

Feng Xuan spoke.

"Oh, nothing, just wanted to see an old brother I haven’t seen in thousands of years."

Taotie’s eyelids flipped again.

"We were merely birthed together; the term ’brother’ is a human invention, irrelevant to us."

These words indeed aligned with Feng Xuan’s own thoughts.

Good brothers?

What is that?

Can you eat it?

Oh, for Taotie, at least.

Even brothers are for eating.

Taotie spoke.

"I want you to help me find someone."

Feng Xuan rarely lost his sarcastic demeanor.

"Who?"

"A woman who smells really nice."

After speaking, Taotie swallowed audibly again.

"Her blood smells delicious."

Feng Xuan nodded.

"Alright, I understand."

Taotie was stunned.

"You understand?"

"Mm."

Honestly, Taotie himself wasn’t really clear, yet this Qiongqi figured it out first??

Fine, no wonder Qiongqi is the smartest one.

Otherwise, how could it so easily attract likes from so many men and women?

Perhaps he really does know what the person I’m looking for looks like.

Taotie is greedy but simple-minded and easily deceived.

Otherwise, could it have eaten itself??

Taotie spoke.

"Alright, what do you need me to help with?"

Feng Xuan slightly closed his eyes.

"Nothing that needs your help."

Taotie listened, furrowing his brows.

"I don’t want to owe you one."

Feng Xuan lifted his eyelids.

"Then what can you help me with?"

He asked slowly and softly.

Taotie thought about it.

"Eat people?"

"You’re so useless, yet you hope to help me?"

Taotie was left speechless.

It really didn’t want to talk to this Qiongqi.

Feng Xuan pondered for a moment, then raised his head.

"Eat people?"

Taotie was puzzled.

"You have a target for me to eat?"

"Have you heard of the demon-hunting event in three days?"

Taotie nodded.

"Of course, I’ll participate."

Saying so, Taotie was a bit excited.

"These human events sound quite interesting."

It used to live alone, eating everything in the vicinity.

It had never attended an event with so many people.

It was determined to go and even received an invitation letter.

Feng Xuan spoke slowly.

"Then you should eat a man named Bai Sheng."

Taotie was puzzled.

"Who?"

"Bai Sheng."

"Alright, deal."

After speaking, Feng Xuan lowered his head, adjusting his cuffs.

"Alright, go back."

He said, covering his mouth to cough.

The cuff slipped.

Revealing the chains on his wrist.

Taotie’s eyes flashed with a glimmer.

"You’re still sealed??"

Feng Xuan looked down, staring at his wrist.

Tsk.

Exposed.

Feng Xuan leaned on the tree and coughed.

"That’s my business."

Taotie appraised him up and down.

"I thought you were pretending to be weak, didn’t expect you to really be frail."

Taotie seemed to seize a chance to retaliate.

And took the opportunity for a round of ridicule.

Saying this, Taotie looked at the broken chains on his wrist.

"The chains were broken by someone? You were forced to follow that person?"

Taotie seemed intrigued, question after question.

Feng Xuan thought of Su Yan.

Actually, it could have been undone long ago.

Strangely enough.

It dragged on for so long, willingly letting herself be bound by her.

Originally a bit interested, planning to eat her when the interest waned.

Who knew, up to now, he was reluctant to consume her.

And was more than happy to call her Master, following her wherever she went.

She would be within his line of sight, and that felt really good.
