Chapter 238 Opportunity to Pay Debt
Yang Rongrong couldn't figure it out.

Luo Luo watched her frown tighten, and couldn't help but advise: "If you can't figure it out, don't think about it for now. Everything is just our guess. There is no real evidence. It's useless to rack your brains."

What he said made sense. There were too few clues now and it was difficult to find out the truth by guessing alone. Yang Rongrong sighed and temporarily suppressed the many doubts in her mind.

The most urgent task now is to find out the identity of the man in gray robe, why he wanted to kill her, and whether he has any accomplices.
This matter concerns personal safety and must be resolved as soon as possible.

Although the gray-robed man has human appearance, the demonic energy shock caused by his self-explosion is enough to prove that he is a pure demon cultivator. His cultivation is slightly better than Yang Rongrong's. If Yang Rongrong had not found an opportunity to launch a successful sneak attack, she might not have been able to defeat him.

According to the classification of levels of demon cultivators, he is at least at the level of a demon general.

Among the demon race, there should not be many demon cultivators like him.

Because she was still thinking about this matter, when she arrived at the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons, Yang Rongrong didn't even have time to catch her breath before she immediately used the Xuanji Pen to draw a portrait.

The man in the painting is wearing a loose grey robe, with his hair and body concealed by the robe, leaving only his beautiful face that is difficult to tell whether he is male or female.

He has fair skin, red lips and a pair of affectionate peach blossom eyes. Even if there is no expression on his face, people will have the illusion that he is gazing at them affectionately.

Even in the world of cultivation where people are generally very good-looking, his handsome looks are still very attractive.

When she was painting just now, Hengye had been quietly staying beside her, not daring to disturb her, and looked very well-behaved. Seeing her staring at the portrait with a very focused expression, Hengye tried to hold back, but in the end he couldn't hold back the jealousy in his heart, and asked sourly.

"Is that person good-looking? He made you stare at him for so long."

Yang Rongrong commented objectively: "It is indeed very beautiful."

Hengye couldn't sit still anymore.

He rushed over in two steps, wanting to see who that vixen was? !

When he rushed to Yang Rongrong and saw the man in the portrait clearly, he was stunned.

Yang Rongrong noticed the change in his expression and immediately asked, "Do you know this person?"

Heng Ye did not answer but asked: "Is this person the real murderer who set a trap in the Blue Crystal Lake and tried to murder you?"

He had just heard Yang Rongrong describe the general circumstances of the attack she had encountered at the bottom of the lake.

Hengye also cared about the guy who almost killed her, and he wanted to catch the real murderer even more urgently than she did.

This is the demon world that he rules. How dare someone hurt Zhuzhu under his nose? He will definitely catch that daring guy and cut him into pieces!
Yang Rongrong nodded in the affirmative.

"Ah."

Hengye frowned and asked, "But didn't you say he had already self-destructed?"

"He did blow himself up, but I think he is probably not dead." Yang Rongrong said this without much confidence. After all, she had no real evidence, and everything was just speculation. If Hengye insisted on asking why, she would definitely not be able to answer.

It turned out that Hengye had no intention of digging deeper into the matter.

His brows were furrowed, his eyes were solemn, and his young and handsome face revealed a bit of the power of a demon king: "His name is Hu Qingbai, and he is said to be a descendant of the nine-tailed fox and the great elder of the fox demon clan. But he has been in seclusion for many years. Even when my father passed away, almost all the demon cultivators with status in the entire demon world came to pay their respects, but Hu Qingbai never showed up. Because he has not shown up for many years, some people even speculate that he has died."

At this point, he couldn't help but pick up the portrait and looked at it carefully for a long time. He didn't understand why Hu Qingbai wanted to murder Yang Rongrong? The two had never met before, never had any grudges, and had no motive at all.

Yang Rongrong looked confused: "Fallen?"

Hengye explained: "Although Hu Qingbai has the blood of the nine-tailed fox in his body, after so many years of inheritance, that little bit of blood has long become very weak, and his cultivation has stagnated for nearly a thousand years. Even if he has been practicing in seclusion, he has not made any progress."

Yang Rongrong suddenly realized.

The lifespan of demon cultivators is naturally longer than that of humans, but it is also limited. If their lifespan is exhausted and they still cannot make a breakthrough in their cultivation, they will eventually die.

Yang Rongrong had thought of many reasons before, but there was no empirical evidence to support it, so it was useless to think about it.

She didn't want to waste her time guessing at this point, so she simply suggested, "Now that we know his identity and background, let's go find him and ask him about it."

Hengye responded without hesitation: "Okay, I'll go to the Fox Tribe with you."

Yang Rongrong frowned: "No need..."

Heng Ye interrupted her refusal and said seriously, "This is the demon world. Although the demon cultivators' attitude towards human cultivators is not as hateful as that of the demon clan, they are not very friendly either. Moreover, there are many demon cultivators in the fox clan who like to practice the art of love. They often use human cultivators as a furnace to absorb Yin and replenish Yang. Young female cultivators like you who are talented and good-looking are the most popular with them. If you go to the fox clan, you will probably be targeted by those demon cultivators, and you will inevitably cause a lot of trouble. If I accompany you, they dare not touch you, let alone stop you, and you can meet anyone you want."

Yang Rongrong knew that she had a good talent in cultivation, but she had rarely been praised in person. Especially when the other party looked extremely serious and had no intention of being polite, which made Yang Rongrong feel a little embarrassed.

She coughed twice to cover up, pretending not to hear his praise, and said cautiously: "In fact, I am not sure that Hu Qingbai is still alive. If he really died by self-explosion, then our trip would be a waste of effort."

Hengye didn't care much about it: "I believe in your intuition, and you also have to believe in yourself."

After a pause, he continued his analysis: "To put it another way, even if Hu Qingbai is really dead, we can't just let this matter go. We have to find out his motives. What if he has accomplices? It's OK if we didn't know before, but now that we know there is such a hidden danger, we must completely solve it and eliminate it forever."

What he said was exactly what Yang Rongrong was thinking.

She just didn't want to owe him any more favors, so as to avoid being entangled with him in the future.

Seeing that she was frowning and looked worried, Hengye could probably guess what she was thinking at the moment. His eyes dimmed a little, and the joy in his heart disappeared a lot.

If it were in the past, she and he would support each other and live together, treating him like her own family.

But now, he just wanted to help her with a small favor, but she kept refusing.

Hengye took the initiative to speak, his voice was soft and low: "You have helped me so much in the past, and saved me from danger many times. I owe you so many favors, and I should pay you back. Can you...can you give me a chance to repay my debt?"
