Chapter 175 Racial Divide

……

Yantai, a small house in an urban village near the sea, facing the sea, with flowers blooming in spring.

Ever since the incident with Zhuo Yuan, Chen Ying left the Magic City and came here to accompany her grandmother. After all, she had no attachment to the Zhao family. As for the inheritance, it was very troublesome to divide the inheritance of a noble family, as most of the things had to be taken back by the family. Chen Ying was not an only child, not to mention that she had a stepmother.

Caesar didn't pay much attention to it, but considering Chen Ying's non-competitive personality, he thought she wouldn't get much.

"Are you here for the Demon Crown?" Chen Ying asked.

"That's about right." Caesar said.

"I'm going to transplant a tree."

The sacred tree of the purple linden in the sky is a good thing. As long as Xinyuekui can help expel the curse on it, it will be a perfect security guard of the invincible monarch level!
You don’t have to worry about security in Asuka City anymore!
"Are you used to it recently?" Caesar looked at Jiang Feng.

After Jiang Feng completed the transformation of Shen Yuan, he gained the ability to transform into a human form. Before, in Venice, after Yan Ji completed the transition of her growth period, he sent Jiang Feng back and asked her to accompany his daughter.

"Not bad." Jiang Feng nodded.

"It's just that I'm still a little uncomfortable talking."

Having been a fire witch for too long, she had almost lost her ability to speak. In addition, she had basically no social activities, and her conversation with Chen Ying didn't require anything complicated, so this ability had never been restored.

"If you need any help, just tell me directly," Caesar said.

"The infrastructure in Asuka City is almost complete. Why don't you move there?"

Jiang Feng was stunned, shook his head, and looked at Yan Shi who was sitting alone not far away, "I want to accompany her."

"She?" Caesar thought for a moment.

"Lü Yi, do you want to meet the Moon Moth Phoenix?"

Lu Yi, who had been eavesdropping on what was happening here, suddenly opened his eyes, turned his head and looked over, looking at Caesar with trembling eyes, "Moon Moth Phoenix? It's still... alive?"

"Not much longer," Caesar said.

"If you want to say goodbye to it, for both of their sakes, I can help you."

The Moon Moth Phoenix has a very short lifespan, so it must sleep most of the time.

He wanted to ask Xin Yuekui if there was any way to change this situation. After all, it was really troublesome to have to reincarnate all the time.

But Xinyue Kui has been very busy lately and has no time to deal with him, so they can only talk about it later.

……

After a night's rest, Caesar and his party set off towards the mountain.

"What exactly happened between grandma and Yue Moth Phoenix?" Chen Ying couldn't help but ask.

Ever since Caesar told her about the Moon Moth Phoenix yesterday, her grandmother's mood has become very strange, sometimes crying and sometimes laughing.

She and her mother asked out of curiosity, but her grandmother refused to say a word and even avoided them and locked herself in her room.

"Do you know the totem beast?" Caesar asked.

"I know a little." Chen Ying said.

"The Moon Moth Phoenix is ​​a kind of totem beast, and your grandmother used to be the guardian of the Moon Moth Phoenix." Caesar said.

"However, in a war several decades ago, your grandmother stabbed the Moon Moth Phoenix in the back and was nearly killed by it."

"Then, your grandmother became depressed."

"Back-stabbed Moon Moth Phoenix? Why?" Chen Ying asked puzzled.

"It's complicated. You can understand it as a question of stance," Caesar said.

"Do you remember the incident with the totem snake in Hangzhou?"

“Humans cannot tolerate the continued existence of something that they cannot fully control.”

"Totem beasts are like this. They are very powerful, and most importantly, they have wisdom. Humans cannot control them perfectly like summoned beasts or contracted beasts. Normally, they are fine, but once there is a little problem, there will be a lot of problems."

“Just like the plague in Hangzhou, this long-standing contradiction will be detonated.”

"Your grandmother is indeed the guardian of the Moon Moth Phoenix, but she is also a human being. She was the Supreme Judge at the time. She had to protect millions of people in this city."

"Faced with the choice of having to give up one side, she gave up the Moon Moth Phoenix." "This... must be some misunderstanding. Grandma..." Chen Ying couldn't believe it.

"Misunderstandings, after all, are due to lack of trust and weight," Caesar said.

"The gap between races is absolute and cannot be bridged."

"No matter how nicely you say it, when you are faced with a real choice, you will still make the choice you want to make."

Even within the same species, there cannot be absolute trust, let alone between two species.

All misunderstandings and suspicions are inevitable and cannot be eliminated.

"What about me?" Yan Ji came up anxiously.

"Will you doubt me too?"

Caesar pinched Yan Ji's cheek and said, "I'm talking about humans, why are you joining in the fun?"

"Will it?" Yan Ji asked nervously.

"What can I doubt about you?" Caesar said with a smile.

"Do you suspect you'll backstab me for the yellow hair?"

Yan Ji has a low intelligence and has been a naive child almost her entire life.

I usually feel guilty when I eat something secretly, backstabbing?
Yan Ji's brain didn't support her to make such a complicated action.

"Okay, don't worry, I doubt anyone would doubt you." Caesar patted Yan Ji's head.

"Then are you doubting your mother?" Yan Ji asked nervously.

Caesar's eye twitched, "I shouldn't have told you this kind of thing."

……

"There seems to be someone in front."

At the long root slope some distance away from the sacred Tianguan Zilin tree, Caesar and his party met a ragged and seriously injured woman.

The bloody claw marks extended from the thigh to the ankle, looking very scary.

Since entering the forest area with large purple lime trees, scenes like this have become more and more frequent, but this woman is lucky and has not died yet.

"I'm really lucky. I can find injured girls wherever I go."

Caesar took out a bottle of healing potion and fed it into Shaonu's mouth.

After just a few breaths, the dying Shaonu began to breathe evenly and the wounds on her body healed rapidly.

Shaonu opened her eyes dazedly, and what she saw was a human face. She breathed a sigh of relief.

"Are you okay?" Caesar moved his hand away as if nothing had happened.

He really wouldn't take advantage of someone like that. He just picked the person up.

But if he explained it would make him seem guilty, so it would be better to just skip it.

Seeing this, Shao Nu did not let go and said, "Thank you very much. I also..."

Before Shaonu could finish her words, an unpleasant and piercing cry came from afar.

Shaonu stood up suddenly and looked at the bronze-toothed mountain man who was chasing her from a distance.

"Run away quickly." Shaonu said.

"That thing is dangerous. I'll hold it back."

"Danger?" Caesar looked at Jiang Feng.

Jiang Feng nodded and waved his hand. A ray of fire suddenly flew out and hit the bronze-toothed mountain man in the distance in an instant, directly blowing it away.

"..."

The air seemed to freeze and Shaonu was stunned.

This is the breath of a monarch!
Humanoid monarch?
