Chapter 199: Chapter 199: He Willingly Falls For Her

Thinking about this question, Qianxun couldn’t help but ask, "Then how did you become the Director of the Demon Management Bureau?"

Hearing this, Huo Tianzun tightened his hold on Qianxun in his arms and replied, "It’s said that on the evening I was born, many colorful clouds appeared in the sky over Yanjing City, which caught the attention of the temple master of White Cloud Temple."

Qianxun listened and faintly understood some things.

Some people are born when miraculous phenomena appear in the sky. To ordinary folks, it’s just an exceptionally brilliant sunset, but to someone knowledgeable, it meant something different.

"He was a Taoist who had lived for nearly two hundred years. After he found me, he said I had the destiny of a person who had done good deeds for ten lifetimes and had accumulated profound Merit. He wanted to take me as his disciple, but my parents didn’t agree. But you also know, my Merit has a great attraction to demons and ghosts. Ever since I was born, I’ve constantly been subject to various secret attacks. Unable to ensure my safety at home, my family finally took me to White Cloud Temple to learn martial arts and magic."

"Carrying Merit, I was naturally twice as effective against demons. However, ten years ago, the Eastern Yi Barbarians plotted to destroy the fortune of Huaxia Country, and although the temple master discovered and unravelled their conspiracy in time, by a fortunate coincidence, I connected with the destiny of Huaxia Country. Since then, I had become the Guardian of Huaxia," Huo Tianzun said.

In other words, he was not only carrying the Merit of ten lifetimes but was also intimately related to the entire destiny of Huaxia.

...

Upon hearing what Huo Tianzun said, Qianxun’s face showed a dawning realization.

So that’s how it was.

Then, she also secretly felt relieved.

Because given Yanzhi’s current situation, the rise and fall of Huaxia were tied to him in countless ways. He was to guard the people of Huaxia, but at the same time, the billions of Huaxia people also had to protect Yanzhi!

To put it bluntly, anyone could die, but Yanzhi could not easily die.

Otherwise, the loss of national fortune would have an unpredictable impact on the whole of Huaxia.

At this point, Huo Tianzun continued, "Later, when demons started causing chaos in various places, the state established the Demon Spirit Administration specifically to deal with them, and I was put in charge."

Although officially, the state propagated that belief in demons and deities was not to be trusted, that demons did not exist, and that practices such as Feng Shui and physiognomy were feudal superstition.

But this was all for paving the way for a new era and liberating new thoughts.

If they truly didn’t believe, they wouldn’t have construct a grand building and still seek out a Feng Shui Master to find the dragon’s acupoint.

...

Qianxun listened and nodded slightly, then looked at him with a heartfelt concern and said, "You must have had a tough time."

He was a human, yet he had to fight against so many demons.

No wonder he looked so exhausted when he had visited her before.

Huo Tianzun smiled at Qianxun’s words and said, "It was a bit tiring at the beginning, but later I learned to use the Merit Sword, and it became much easier."

With a single stroke of the Merit Sword, it could weaken a demon’s demonic power by a great deal, or even directly slay them. He no longer had to fight them with the Peach Wood Sword as he did before.

Qianxun nodded at his words and then said, "Though I am a fox demon, the energy I cultivate is pure Spiritual Energy. If you ever get tired, you must tell me. I can use my Spiritual Energy to nourish your body, to protect you from lingering internal injuries or the like."

Hearing these words, Huo Tianzun looked at her tenderly. With a hoarse voice, he hummed in response, then shifted Qianxun’s legs aside to have her face him directly and sit on his lap.

Then, he wrapped his arms around Qianxun’s back and kissed her.

Being with her, his once empty heart felt instantly full.

So what if she was a demon?

He was willingly captivated and enthralled by her.

In this lifetime, he was determined to protect her well and never let anyone hurt her again.
