Ch. 7 Cute

"Where is it? It's currently too weak to even open a portal so it cannot just disappear." Cheng Li mutters trying to track the Demon, he can feel the disturbance on his array, a person or something having a higher cultivation than him broke his array so he decided to look for it, not expecting a demon, wounded and hungry looking for a prey.

"I hope Ling Xi already prepares dinner, I'm too famished" heading home, Cheng Li gives up on his pursuit.

"Ling Xi!" he shouted, realising his wife, all alone without even a weapon while a demon is on the loose too close in their home.

Running, using his four affinity on aiding him, the path become wide and even the air pushing him at the back. He really hates his low cultivation.

Arriving home fifteen minutes later, he heard the roar of the demon inside. Quickly bypassing the front yard, he runs in the verandah to see Ling Xi on the floor, a demon is quickly closing towards him, Clearly too hungry to even look at the new arrival.

Pulling his dawn splitter in his head, he transforms it to his original self, a sword before running towards the said demon. The demon clearly too weak to fight back got hacked in pieces by the enraged Cheng Li. He doesn't know that while he is doing so, his body is pulling spiritual qi, subconsciously making himself stronger to protect the one he cares.

After hacking the demon in mincemeat pieces, his momentum reach its peak and all the spiritual qi in the verandah was absorbed into his body.

With a 'Kacha' sound, Cheng Li's aura froze, when the spiritual qi gushed in of his dantian. He level up passing two level and directly going in 7th essence. Cheng Li became surprised and happy at the same time.

"Cheng Li." a voice called while groaning in pain. Hearing him, he ran inside the verandah, quickly pressing Ling Xi's acupuncture point to stop his bleeding.

"Everything hurts."

"I know."

"The roar is so loud, then i feel so much pain, I even decided to kill myself, luckily i pass out." Ling Xi narrates making Cheng Li narrows his eyes when he hears the later part of the sentence.

"I don't know what happened but somehow a demon got in this realm."

"A demon?" Ling Xi question, trying to prop himself to sit up but failing so. Clearly he is still too weak to even sit down.

"Here, put your hand in my neck while I'll carry inside, it's not safe for us to stay outside in the meantime, we don't know if the demon has a companion. I can only kill him because he is too weak and you are still under his enchantment, making you feel so weak and almost paralysed."

Being carried that way Ling Xi's face became as red as a ripe tomatoes, his otherwise super pale face having some color. Clearly he is too terrified making his face completely white.

"If you did not come back in time, what would I become?" he questions when he is now comfortable situated in his bed. The ordeal making him realise how he is so insignificant and weak. He really have to start cultivating right now.

"You're going to become his dinner making him stronger then i would probably became his breakfast." Cheng Li stated not hiding the truth to him.

"Then, did you make sure that you kill him for sure?" Ling Xi nervously ask, peeking outside the window, he is so tense like he is expecting that anytime from now a demon would burst out and kill the two of them.

"Don't worry about it, but i have to dispose of its body somewhere to avoid trouble. Just stay here, if someone comes, don't open the door and wait for my return. I don't know if someone knows that a demon somehow get in this realm so we have to be careful, You are safe as long as you don't open the door, the array in here is much better than the array I put outside"

"Then stay safe okay."

"En, I will."

Cheng Li incarcerated the body to make it easier to remove. He decided to bring it in another mountain and scatter the ashes. Demons are really vengeful creature, so scattering the ashes hopefully makes them lose track of who kill their kind.

Seeing Ling Xi, immobile and bleeding, he decided that he would go in close door cultivation and not coming out unless he is level 12 qi condensation or level one core foundation. Core foundation is the basic on practising and using his affinity. Right now, he can only use his affinity in defence so he has to rely on his sword to battle.

After scattering the ashes, he go home immediately knowing that Ling Xi is very vulnerable right now. He really feels bad leaving him alone knowing he is scared.

Cheng Li opens the front door, stops dead in his tracks hearing a whimper coming from the living quarters. Ling Xi is crying.

"Cheng Li is that you?" he question in a hoarse voice.

"Yes. Do you want something?"

"Uhm.. Nothing. Uhm.. Cheng Li can you sleeps in here tonight, I'm so scared." he pleads still whimpering.

"Coming." he answers back before getting a basin, getting some hot spring water on his dimension, controlling its temperature before going inside.

"what's that?" he questions looking at the basin and wash cloth on his hand.

"I'll help you wash up and change clothes." Ling Xi's eyes started to become bigger when he reason out.

"You're clothes are full of dirt and blood, in fact even the edge of your hair had some blood in it." Ling Xi hearing that just become silent. 'Forget it, we are both men anyway, so there is no reason to be shy about it.

Cheng Li undress him until he is really completely naked, his small delicate body all laid out on the bed to see, he really want to slap the previous owner of this body, you lived for almost one hundred years yet your body still looks like a teenager?.

'This one really has a pale complexion, he really want to suck the quivering pink nub, and his skin is so soft, just like a girl.'

Cheng Li smirks, before starting on giving him a sponge bath, not forgetting to flick the red nub on the process, watching him shivers. Ling Xi's face is so red, a tears at the end of his eyelashes looking like a little girl being harassed by a hooligan. In fact a hooligan in a fourteen years old body is currently harassing him.

"Say, Ling Xi, You're thing is so pink and cute." he smirks, even flicking it, currently having the best time of his life harassing a immobile person.

'Cute?'

'How dare he say cute.'

No man can never accept the insult when someone says their junior is cute.
