When Li Fei'er opened her eyes, Shen Minyao's figure was the first thing she noticed. She imdiately dropped the bells she was holding and threw herself towards Shen Minyao who was caught off-guard with her sudden actions. She was really relieved to see that Shen Minyao managed to co back before she exorcised the demon completely.
"You ca back!" She wound her arms around Shen Minyao, her eyes filled with tears of joy.
"You doubted ?" The fox woman raised a brow and then glanced at the grim reaper who sheathed his sword back on its scabbard.
"Of course not! I know you can do it!" Li Fei'er was now sure that Shen Minyao wasn't a person she should underestimate. Anyway, she needed to know how Shen Minyao managed to weaken the demon on her own.
However, even before she could voice out her question, Li Fei'er blacked out, her whole body's weight pressing against the fox woman. Performing exorcisms like this still bore so pressure on her ntal strength. While her spiritual prowess was innate, her mind wasn't strong enough to keep up with it.
"I am not going to take her back ho." Mu Qing gave the fox woman a pointed glare before turning his back to leave. His work for today wasn't done yet.
"Wait," the fox woman called after him and asked, "the demon at the hospital, do you know what it is?"
Now that they had already dealt with the mirror demon, the only one left was the demon who turned the hospital into its turf for the past few days. There was no doubt that the two demons were related to each other.
"A spider demon," Mu Qing replied, "You don't happen to know how to dispose of it, do you?"
Just as expected, Shen Minyao thought. She then held onto Li Fei'er's midsection to support her.
"No, I don't think it would be easy to defeat that one," she said with honesty, "Spider demons aren't as weak as this mirror demon anyway."
Mu Qing's expression hardened. Since this demoness acknowledged the prowess of the spider demon, then it proved to be a handful to deal with on his own.
As if sensing his troubles, Shen Minyao's lips curled up evilly.
"Do you need so assistance?" She taunted him.
Mu Qing glanced at Li Fei'er and took a deep breath. Was he really that obvious?
"En, but it would be better if we leave her out of it. You know well how dangerous it could be," he said before he disappeared into nothingness, leaving Shen Minyao with the unconscious Li Fei'er in her arms.
"You don't have to tell what I already know." She frowned.
Sighing to herself, Shen Minyao looked down at Li Fei'er and the ss the ritual left in its wake. No doubt humans would make an issue out of it once morning arrived, but she didn't care anyway.
There was a more pressing matter she needed to deal with right now. How could she take Li Fei'er ho without revealing her real identity to the Li family? She was able to devour the energy core of the mirror demon, but she was still far from recovering fully. Surely, she wouldn't be able to protect herself if the Li family decided to co after her.
The phone in her pocket beeped, notifying her of a new ssage. As soon as she saw who it was, her lips quirked up. How could she forget that Shen Minyao had available resources she could use at her disposal? With Fu Xiyan, she wouldn't have to face the Li family at all.
She dragged Li Fei'er's unconscious body and left the school premises, making sure no humans were to see them leaving. The fox woman would rather avoid suspicion about their involvent in the ss that was left in the school's laboratory room.
"Miss?! What happened?" Fu Xiyan asked once she t Shen Minyao outside the gates of the school. Her eyes then caught Li Fei'er's unconscious form behind her miss. "Who is she?"
"I need a ride, Xiyan. Help drop her ho." Shen Minyao ignored her personal attendant's question.
Fu Xiyan blinked twice before she imdiately dialed and called the driver. It didn't take long before a black sedan car stopped in front of them, with a man dressed in a black suit greeting them.
"Miss Yao." He gave Shen Minyao a curt nod before eyeing the woman slumped on her back. He didn't think that their miss was strong enough to support another person's weight without breaking a sweat.
He then opened the door of the backseat, while Fu Xiyan took the spot next to the driver's seat.
"Help take her ho," Shen Minyao told him and entered the car with Li Fei'er shifted in her arms.
Fu Xiyan and her driver-slash-bodyguard found it difficult that their miss was holding an unknown person like this.
"Is she your classmate, Miss?" Fu Xiyan couldn't stop herself from questioning her miss. Shen Minyao wasn't planning to kidnap this person, right?
"En. She fell asleep while we're doing our project at the library," Shen Minyao said with a straight face. "Take us to this address." She then passed Li Fei'er's phone towards the driver.
Fu Xiyan and the driver could only look at each other in confusion before following Shen Minyao's order. The drive towards Li Fei'er's ho was filled with silence. Neither of the human companions of the fox woman dared to utter a word about her sudden change lately, but since nothing bad had happened so far, they supposed it was alright for the anti.
Shen Minyao didn't alight from the car and left Li Fei'er to Fu Xiyan and the driver's care as they brought her to her ho. The fox woman shut her eyes and could sense the shamans from the ancestral ho of the Li family.. She really had made the right choice to stay in the car.
