Chapter 19 Neighbors
Meng Xuan was a little at a loss after hearing Yue Tixia's words.

There is only one such naive monster like this in front of us, right?
The key point is that such a soft, cute and adorable girl would actually marry an ordinary woodcutter. Of course, it is not to say that the woodcutter is a bad person, but the relationship is a bit too abrupt.

As a bystander, at least in Meng Xuan's opinion, this love at first sight was really too hasty.

However, as of now, Yue Tixia has probably not met Hu Weisheng yet.

"Um...don't call me Miss anymore, just call me Yue Tixia."

Yue Tixia spoke with blushing cheeks.

Meng Xuan's expression grew serious, and he responded in a gentle voice, "Then I won't be polite. Besides, my name is Meng Xuan, and you can just call me by my name, Yue Tixia."

This was the first time Meng Xuan revealed his real name to others.

"Then we'll be friends from now on," Yue Tixia smiled sweetly, her whole body radiating joy. Then she thought of something and quickly pointed at the black donkey beside her and introduced him, "By the way, this is Ah Zhu, my good friend."

"Hello!" The black donkey Azhu cooperated very well and raised the wooden sign, which could be considered as a greeting.

"Hello, Brother Donkey," Meng Xuan also nodded seriously.

Although his cave has been exposed, it is not necessarily a bad thing. At least he has established a relationship with Yue Tixia and the black donkey Azhu, and he doesn't have to worry about encountering danger in the forest in the future.

"This gentleman is..."

Just as he was thinking this, Yue Tixia's gaze had already fallen on Qu Hun.

With her strength, she could naturally see that Qu Hun was no longer a normal human being. Both his heartbeat and breathing had disappeared.

Meng Xuan hesitated for a moment, but finally chose to tell the truth.

"This is a refined corpse I obtained by chance. It must have practiced some special martial arts in its lifetime, and was then refined into this state."

Hearing this, Yue Tixia's expression suddenly changed, and a hint of anger appeared in her eyes.

"This is too cruel! How can you use a living person to do this?"

"Heh, humans!" The black donkey immediately raised the wooden sign, a look of contempt appearing on his face.

Meng Xuan suddenly didn't know how to respond.

After a brief thought, he could only sigh and say, "This is perfectly normal. After all, whether human or monster, they are all driven by desire."

"Just like monsters become stronger by eating humans, humans can also benefit from eating humans."

Yue Tixia was still puzzled, "But you can't be so cruel! How can you attack your own people?"

Meng Xuan chuckled at such innocent words.

"What are you laughing at? Do you think what I said is wrong?"

As if feeling that she was being laughed at, Yue Tixia puffed up her cheeks, pouted her lips and looked over angrily.

Those big eyes with distinct black and white were sparkling with a faint light, and her eyebrows were tightly furrowed, which was indescribably cute.

Meng Xuan suppressed his smile and shook his head slowly, "Of course not. On the contrary, you are absolutely right. This kind of thing, let alone you demons, even as a human, it would be difficult for me to sit back and watch it happen."

"But there's a saying that goes, 'True strength isn't about fighting, it's about allowing it to happen.'"

“It’s okay to have regrets, stupidity, ugliness, hypocrisy, and give without reward. These are all part of the world and they exist even if you don’t accept them.”

After Meng Xuan's few words, Yue Tixia gradually became speechless.

"I might be angry about something like this, but I won't dwell on it too much, nor will I reject the established facts too much. That's why I keep Qu Hun by my side."

Meng Xuan patted Qu Hun's sturdy body with his hand and changed the subject, "Of course, if I were to encounter a situation where innocent people were being killed, I would also consider whether to intervene based on the actual situation." "After all, I'm just an ordinary person. I can do what I can, but I won't put myself in danger for someone who has nothing to do with me."

When he said this, Meng Xuan suddenly smiled and waved his hand.

"I've said a little too much. Anyway, what I want to say is that I'm definitely not a bad person. If Miss Yue Ti doesn't believe me, you can monitor me anytime and anywhere."

"Hmm!" Yue Tixia's cheeks turned red in an instant, her hands kept rubbing in front of her body, her head lowered to her chest, and no one knew what she was thinking.

However, the black donkey Azhu on the side noticed the situation and started grinning and giggling.

Yue Tixia glared at the black donkey, then said in a trembling voice, "Just don't cut down trees in the future. This area is under my jurisdiction, and I will keep an eye on you at all times!"

"But don't worry, as long as you don't destroy the forest and don't do anything bad in the forest, no monster will harm you."

"I see!"

Upon hearing this, Meng Xuan's face showed joy.

The area where the cave is located is under the jurisdiction of Yue Tixia. Although it will occasionally be watched by the black donkey, at least with Yue Tixia there, no one will come to disturb it.

This is undoubtedly good news for Meng Xuan.

Meng Xuan immediately bowed and said, "Thank you, Miss Yue Ti, for allowing me to stay. From now on, we will be neighbors. If you need anything, you can always come to me for help."

"The same goes for you. If you need any help, just call my name. I can hear you." Yue Tixia responded softly.

"That's nothing, Azhu and I won't bother you."

After saying this, the girl stood up and said goodbye.

Meng Xuan did not try to keep them, but still personally escorted Yue Tixia and Hei Lu out of the cave.

It was not until the goblin and the donkey crossed the waterfall and flew away into the distance that Meng Xuan turned back and reopened the falling rock formation.

Although this thing is a little weak and cannot stop the quasi-Demon King, it is better than nothing.

At least it can buy some time, right?

And just in the air outside the waterfall, Yue Tixia was sitting on the black donkey, looking down at the rushing water.

"Azhu, what do you think of this Mr. Meng Xuan?"

Black Donkey raised the wooden sign in response, "They're not quite the same as those sanctimonious Taoists from the Yiqi Dao League, but at least they're not bad people, and they don't have any prejudice against us monsters. You can try to get along with them."

"Really? Do you think so too?"

When Yue Tixia saw the words on the wooden sign, her eyes suddenly lit up.

But at this moment, Black Donkey laughed evilly and raised the wooden sign, and the words on it changed instantly.

"Are you in love with this human?"

Upon hearing this, Yue Tixia blushed slightly and said shyly:

"No, it's just my first time interacting with humans, and I'm a little curious. What he just said makes sense. Besides, don't you think we can be friends?"

"I just followed my mother's instructions and kept an eye on Meng Xuan to prevent him from chopping down the trees."

In response to these stubborn words, Heilu just rolled his eyes silently, but did not intend to interfere too much.
