The mystery of sacred and demonic energy

Of course, some of the children who actually came from the countryside and were completely ignorant, they were surprised by the Horses of Hell, they were big, with glossy black fur, their legs were strong and at the end of the legs, where the normal fur of a horse should have been, was a red and demonic fire, for there was no heat, but a strange cold. The beast's eyes were an intense red and his mane was also blood red, even when the snorting horse showed its majesty and strength. 

The heart of a 10-year-old boy was very easy to surprise, so Zemin Yan and Yi Yuga were amazed by the horses, they really wanted to get close and pet those demonic beasts. 

Bohai Xiulan sneered in his heart when he saw how these two children his age acted near these low-grade demon beasts. The noble or high-income families always had ten or more Hell Horses, Bohai Xiulan himself had a small foal of the same species, which he won for his birthday last year, only poor people or those from small villages would be impressed by these low-grade demon beasts.

Wen Jie was also impressed by the horses, but he was 16 years old and behaved a little better than 10-year-olds, but in his heart he also wanted to pet this imposing horse. 

"Do you want to pet this demonic beast too?" Asked Shou Zuo in his coquettish voice. He is always watching Wen Jie, he was happy to watch this great young man, but who had the heart of an innocent peasant, he felt his heart itch to watch him. 

"No," answered Wen Jie harshly, he didn't want to look like an ignorant fool, he could feel the sharp stares of the other novice disciples in his group. As Zemin Yan and Yi Yuga are small children, so people would not judge so harshly, but a young man who is almost an adult behaving foolishly… That was a different story!

"Don't be sad, I let you caress my head," said Shou Zuo whispering in Wen Jie's ear, as he couldn't see Wen Jie's unwillingness when he earlier denied it. 

"Good!" Wen Jie said as if comforted in his heart, he didn't even hesitate to stroke Shou Zuo's hair in front of everyone! Already Shou Zuo was slightly surprised, but then his eyes bowed like half moons very happy. 

People who were not part of Elder Han's new disciples were surprised by the intimate attitude between two men, even though they were still considered little more than children, but the other novices did not find it so strange. After all, the group spent a good time together and faced death for some time, so it would be normal to develop a good relationship with their groupmates, a harmonious relationship of older brother and younger brother. 

So the superiors of the sect (Lan Ruan, Hong Yu, Yun San, etc.) do not find it so strange, in fact, it was enviable to be so young and innocent, who among them did not know that sincere friendship on the path of cultivation as rare as Qilin's horns? 

As everyone sighed in their hearts with envy of the "fraternal" relationship between Wen Jie and Shou Zuo, the two children approached the Horses of Hell. Bohai Xiulan smirked at these fellow ignorant disciples, for they all knew that the Horses of Hell hated being petted and cared for more by people. 

However, a few seconds later Bohai Xiulan had a bitter and jealous look on his pretty little face, his gray iris eyes couldn't hide his jealousy when he saw the harmonious scene of Zemin Yan caressing the horses of hell, even more so. Hell horses that are fierce by nature and hard to tame, they were very happy to be petted!

What happened at that moment also shocked Zemin Yan, he felt a slight warmth of his sacred energy, not like what happened when he met his older brother Zhong. This warmth was gentle as a warm spring breeze, so he approached the horses of hell, which at first seemed to be eating his little head, but soon behaved like large puppies shaking to be petted. 

Shouldn't demonic energy be repelled by sacred energy? Thought Zemin Yan, after all, these are opposite energies and should be repelled. The truth is that Zemin Yan knew nothing about these two energies, he focused so much on growing on the martial path and fighting his sealed lineage that he forgot to study the various subjects on the Dao path. Zemin Yan blamed himself a little on his heart, promising that he would study more on this subject. 

"Sying, why isn't demonic energy repelled by sacred energy?" Zemin Yan spoke to his little dog through the bond of souls.

"I don't know, how should I know about this? I only feel very comfortable when I'm around someone or anything that contains demonic energy, "said the little white dog innocently. 

Zemin Yan sighed, he had forgotten that Sying was just a puppy and everything he knows about farming and its environment, even about its predators and proper food, came from its ancient lineage. In other words, if he wanted to know about it or he was going to study or he would have to wait for Sying to grow to some extent to ask him again. However, how can a holy beast grow quickly? In addition, Sying had health problems that would slow its growth. 

"See, my brother Yan is the best! Even the demonic beasts become docile around him! "Thought Chu Yue and Yi Yuga in their hearts, clearly they placed Zemin Yan on an altar. 

Already Quian Dalai had a slightly bitter look, as these Horses of Hell reminded him of his destitute childhood when he lived in a noble mansion, he remembered that he was almost killed by one of these horses of his elder stepbrother. Quian Dalai is the son of a low-ranking concubine, above him were still the sons of the high-ranking concubines and the children of the first wife. 

The amount of bullying he went through was not small, he also had his life at risk because of his father's numerous female schemes until his mother died. At the time he was only seven years old, so he was lucky enough to find his master who took him away.  

"Don't be jealous little Dalai, I'll pet you so you don't feel lonely!" Said Shou Zuo jokingly, he had observed that the laidback behavior of the stout child had changed, there was an endless bitterness in those round eyes. So he dared to play with this child, who for the most part behaves in a very boring and cheerful manner. 

"Who wants to be petted by you!" Complained Quian Dalai, his face all red, very embarrassed. He was already such a big kid and this fox Shou Zuo still wanted to play with him! Chu Yue can only laugh at the embarrassed Quian Dalai, but he didn't escape being petted like a small pet, the three boys made a strange and harmonious family of three.
