The Devils is back!

Chapter 25 The Devils is back!

Lin Ren did not know the contemptuous thought of the young Qilin. In fact, even if he knows about it, he would have just laugh it off. In the end, a Qilin was a Qilin. How could he expect a Qilin to understand the dilemma of a human?

Regardless, currently he was preoccupied with his own thoughts process.

That glimpse of thought that he had managed to catch. He needs to find a way to confirm it. But after racking his brain out, he still could not find a good way to confirm it. Nonetheless, if what he guessed was true, then he would be in for a great adventure!

Maybe through this anticipated adventure, Lin Ren thought he might even be able to meet and grab a heaven and earth treasure. Or maybe several treasures if he worked hard?

Didn't the stories and tale told in various media and fairytale foretold that only by risking oneself out there searching for it, that one could be meet fate changing treasure? If one only sits back at his desk in his house, unless some extraordinary dumb luck a meteor or something similar coming right at you, under normal circumstances these treasures would not come knocking at your door.

Well, maybe if you possess a superior gene that an alien princess out there covets you or a lascivious goddess somehow got an interest in you and summoned you to the other world giving many cheats, you basically never going to get heaven defying treasure simply by sitting back at home.

Even the previous truck-kun trick needs to accidently hit you when you are out on the street before getting rebirth chance!

(On second thought, no, don't. The truck-kun trick wouldn't work anymore, kids. Don't go around looking for that peculiar looking truck-kun just because you are anticipating being sent to an Isekai world. The youthful goddess of reincarnation had already replaced the old geezer white haired guy who keeps mistaking people's death. Nowadays it has become hard to even get the permit to be summoned there. So, forget your wishful thinking kids. The permit is very pricey.)

Imagining the possibilities of the future, Lin Ren who was previously on the verge of collapse finally got himself together. At this moment, he was too excited at the prospect of his conjecture being true, that he felt he wants to scream and laugh out loud. He even had the urge to hug the stupid Qilin and share his joy with him!

In the end he suppressed his excitement. After all it was only his conjecture. Nothing has been proven yet. What if it was wrong? If that were the case, he would be too embarrassed to even see an ant that he saw crawling under his feet in the future.

Lin Ren glimpse at the Qilin. He noticed the weird look the guy gave him.

'What the kind of face did this guy showing? Is he looking at me with disdain and gloating?'

'Is he looking down at me thinking I'm stupid and crazy?'

'Wait. Wait a moment. Didn't they say sacred creatures are those who had higher wisdom compared to any other creature in the universe?'

'As higher lifeform with such wisdom, due to his pride, this guy might look at others in disdain but never gloating. There's even some contempt hidden in the eye.'

'If there's gloating, under normal script, it would mean he thought of me as a clown and a fool. But why would he have thought of me like that?'

'Did he realize something? Now that I think about it, besides being panicked and scared due that mother beast, I never saw him panicking nor flustered due to the sudden world changes itself. This should mean he had known he would be sent to this world together with me!'

'If we follow the same thinking pattern, wouldn't he already realize what I had just guessed? Then my hypothetical was correct? It that why he was calm and even gloating? Because he saw me as a clown who never seen the world, right?'

Lin Ren kept looking at the young Qilin.

"So, have you already realized it?" he asked the Qilin.

Hearing Lin Ren's words, the Qilin was first bewildered. Then he understood. He nodded towards Lin Ren with a smirk.

'Of course, I had long ago noticed your reaction. You were making faces so clearly that everyone knows you panicked and almost p*** your pants.'

'Though I have long realized you are not that reliable ever since we first met at the carriage.'

Looking at the Qilin action, nodding and then giving him a smirk, Lin Ren confirmed it. He was sure this new adventure of his would be great! He was finally going to have his own adventure that he can brag with his siblings when he came back!

Yes, his guessed was correct! Though he would still need to prove and confirm it himself, but from the Qilin reaction, the Qilin who was trained by the Lin Clan, the matter was basically confirmed and settled it.

Knowing of the future possibilities, he could not suppress himself from giving a low voice but clear chuckle.

"Hehehehehe…Hahaha…Hehehe…from now on my future luck (and my treasure) depends on you. Hehehe"

Hearing the sudden weird chuckle, like a villain prevails in his crime, the Qilin got a bit of goosebumps.

'Did the fall really hit the kid hard enough on the head?'

'Does the shock of being sent here finally makes him snapped his nerves? Had he lost his mind now?'

When he first heard Lin Ren's villainous chuckle, the Qilin was worried and wondered what he should do. He was asked by the old geezer to watch over the kid, but now when they had just arrived, the kid became crazy and disable! Would the old geezer blame him later? But this was not his fault! He would never take the fall for the crime he never committed.

'Since the thing already happen and I would still end up being scolded, should I just make up another hit to his head? This way when I was scolded, it would not be unjust.'

'Who knows maybe another hit to the head is the remedy to cure him from craziness?'

Just when he decided to smack the kid who took his fruit really, really, hard (yes, truthfully, he just wanted a reasonable excuse to hit Lin Ren for the incident earlier. Don't think a 70 something years old youth didn't have his temper.), he heard Lin Ren following words.

'Did the kid just said he wants to be dependent on me? Had I just heard his words correctly?'

His mind gave a simple analysis and he thought he understood Lin Ren's meaning. This kid was scared and wanted to depend on him from now on. He guessed Lin Ren had probably realized that he was older than him and as little kid, they should follow the lead of a senior.

'So, as the older one and the adults among the two, I guess I indeed need to be massive and magnanimous reliable senior. It would not hurt me if I led a little kid to survive in this new world. After all I'm the older one.'

He felt complacent the more he thought about it. And who knows, maybe after the old geezer had known his contribution in the future, he might give an additional reward or another fruit to him.

When he thought of this, he became excited too!

Lin Ren might be an ignorant child, who doesn't know much. But he as a Qilin raised by the Lin Clan knows and understand it clearly of the greatness of the old geezer. The fruits grown on the old geezer are among the best heaven and earth treasure that one could find.

If it were not due the Lin Clan's domineering strength and how secretive the existence of Lin Clan's core area was, if the other races had known Lin Clan own a living treasure tree with an entire tree sparkling with these Elemental Jade Fruits simply hanging there, the planet called Earth would have long ago been razed to the ground by bandits.

Only the core members of the clan knew of the tree existence and all members of the Lin Clan's core members were always monitored by the Spirit Soul of their own ring. They could never be able to tell the words Elemental Jade Fruit or the tree's name, Colorful Jadeite Spirit Tree.

That's why when they were telling stories to the kids few years back, they had only said mysterious fruit. It was not merely to give a sense of mystery to it, but also specifically because they can't ever mention the tree's name and the fruit's name. Even specific and detailed function of the fruit cannot be told to avoid other people become suspicious and risking exposure.

The ring was stuck to their fingers. As long as they don't want to die, the ring could never be pull out from their fingers. And the ring had a mechanism where whenever the Spirit Soul detected the members of the clan violated this taboo, they would be inflicted with a backlash from the ring.

The only possibility to avoid such fate was if their strength reach G7 True King powerhouse. At that time, they were powerful enough to withstand the ring's limitation. When that happens, they could even take off their ring.

As a True King, they no longer confined to the condition and be monitored like any other people. They have their own dignity as a king that could not be violated.

So, the Qilin who knew the real value of the fruit also began to imagine old geezer giving himself several fruits as rewards.

"Kuehkuehkueh…kuehkuehkueh…kuehkuehkueh…," another weird laughter could now be heard coming from the Qilin.

Hearing the Qilin's laughter, while felt weird, Lin Ren assumed that the Qilin understood his meaning and was also looking forward to their glorious future. When the both of them found various treasures and going on various places, they would return to Earth with rich and honors.

"Hehehe…Hahaha…Hahaha…Hehehe"

"Kuehkuehkueh…kuehkuehkueh…kuehkuehkueh…"

Two weird laughter resounded in the silent jungle. Even some small creatures that were crawling far away, when they heard the two villainous laughter, they felt goosebumps and cold shiver ran along their spine. These two creatures cannot be provoked. These two must be the legendary devils, told by their ancestors. The ones who once ran amok here in this southern area.

The little animals and beasts quickly ran away in fear.

Must tell parents and grandparents! The devils are back!
