Chapter 46 Black Night Owl as a Tenant

Feng Ruoxing pointed at my nose and said, "If you dare to lock Xiaokui up, I'll kill you!"

I was utterly speechless!

I was just thinking about it!

I looked at Xiaokui and asked, "Honey, tell me, how many Black Night Owls can you eat in one go?"

"Half!" Xiaokui said aggrievedly, "I'm already stuffed after eating that. I have to go a long time without eating anything."

My heart sank when I heard that, "How long is a long time?"

"It's hard to say." Xiaokui counted on her fingers, "Maybe a year, maybe three. It depends on how filling what I eat is."

I understood what Xiaokui meant. She was saying that after eating a ghost god, she needed a long time to digest the ghost god's power, and the specific time depended on how strong the ghost god was.

I rubbed my chin, "What if you don't eat them, but just bite them to death?"

I didn't care what the final result of the ghost god was, as long as it could be killed.

Who knew that Xiaokui shook her head and said, "No, I can't bite those things when I'm not hungry!"

Great! That was a waste of excitement.

Xiaokui rubbed her fingers and said, "Daddy, are you unhappy?"

"No, no, why would I be?" I picked up Xiaokui. "Now that you're full, go chat with Black Night Owl more often, tell him more about the benefits of Liangjie Tang, let him treat this place as his home, let him be closer to us. A family should help each other, you know?"

"Okay!" Xiaokui nodded obediently, "I also have to tell him that I'm always hungry sometimes."

"Good girl!"

This wasn't me being malicious!

The key was that Black Night Owl lived in my Liangjie Tang; he was a tenant! I was the landlord!

A tenant acting all high and mighty with his landlord, and it was more difficult to ask him for a favor than praying to our ancestors. This wasn't the attitude a qualified landlord should have.

Besides, I realized that Black Night Owl's knowledge wasn't lower than Old Liu's, and might even be higher. Even if I didn't send him on missions, he could be my advisor!

Since the advisor wasn't playing ball, I had to find a way to scare him!

Now that the matter of Weizi Lane was settled, I had to heal my injuries.

Overall, the Weizi Lane deal was a loss. I not only put in my own money, but only got back two sets of ghost god armor. Ye Yang and I couldn't wear that stuff, and we couldn't sell it either. We could only leave it in the warehouse to gather dust.

Ye Yang and I had also spat out a mouthful of blood essence each, and it would probably take two or three months to recover the damaged vitality. I should stop showing off and stay at home to heal my injuries! I'll talk about it after I've healed.

During the time I was healing, Xiaokui grew a lot, whether it was because she ate a ghost god or for some other reason. She looked like a six- or seven-year-old child.

Because of this, Wang Butcher specifically came to me and said, "Xiaokui should be sent to school."

I didn't agree at first. Xiaokui wasn't a real child. A ghost god-level person going to school? Don't be ridiculous. If she got carried away and grabbed someone's child and took a bite, how would I compensate them?

Later, Wang Butcher told me that Xiaokui needed to integrate into this world. If she wasn't allowed to go to school, wasn't allowed to interact with her peers, when would she be able to live a normal life? Did I really want her to be born and die with us in a sea of knives and fire?

I thought about it and agreed to send Xiaokui to school.

Xiaokui's identity, household registration, and school were all taken care of by Old Liu. On the first day of school, the entire Liangjie Tang was mobilized, and Xiaokui was sent to school in a mighty manner.

I looked at Xiaokui walking into the school with her schoolbag on her back, and I felt a little reluctant, but also a sense of relief that my child had grown up. I stared until I couldn't see Xiaokui's shadow before returning to Liangjie Tang, anxiously waiting for Xiaokui to get out of school.

I didn't breathe a sigh of relief until Xiaokui came back. None of the things I was worried about happened, and Xiaokui was still very adapted to her current life!

My happiness was slapped in the face after only a few days.

That day, I just wanted to go to the garden for a smoke when I saw Feng Ruoxing, Zhao Yuezhu, and Yun Shang whispering and poking around, wondering what they were doing.

Curious, I moved closer and vaguely heard them saying, "Sister Feng, you go..."

Feng Ruoxing: "I can't, you should go!"

Zhao Yuezhu: "I can't do it, Yun Shang is better for this."

Yun Shang gritted her teeth and said, "Why don't we let Li Po or Ye Yang go?"

Qin Xin popped out of nowhere: "I think Li Po should go! He has a thick skin!"

I subconsciously touched my face twice: Is it thick?

As a result, Qin Xin added, "Ye Yang doesn't like to talk, and he's not good at communicating with people. Besides, what if Xiaokui's teacher takes a fancy to Ye Yang and comes running home every day? Wouldn't that be annoying?"

"Yeah!" Nie Xiaochun also chimed in, "Qin Xin is right! Li Po really has to go. He has a strong ability to withstand blows. Even if he is scolded by the teacher, it will be like nothing happened to him. Ye Yang definitely can't do it. If you say too much, Ye Yang will easily silence the teacher."

When I heard that, it was Xiaokui who had caused trouble and the teacher wanted to see her parents!

I can't go!

When I was secretly retreating, I was suddenly pushed from behind and fell directly into the corridor!

When I turned around, I found that Ye Yang had already jumped over the wall from the garden and ran away!

What an ungrateful son!
