Daily life of a teacher in the martial arts department

Ju Qiuming's heart stirred, but he did not speak.

"However, I have some unexpected surprises coming here this time..." The man in black robes reached into his robes, took out a box, and opened it.

Inside... is a ruby ​​ring.

Perhaps it is a ruby ​​ring made from an eye.

Without a doubt, it's the eyes of the Rebellious Demon!

Ju Qiuming's pupils contracted, and his emotions began to fluctuate uncontrollably... but he quickly suppressed them.

Although he had heard about this during their last meeting and had researched it afterward, he still found it unacceptable when he actually saw it in person.

Because he is also a rebellious ghost.

He confirmed this when he saw the man in black robes in front of him during his last midterm commission in the Chaotic Province.

When the rebellious ghosts are in a state of extreme agitation, their eyes are gouged out and preserved using special methods.

"This is Qi Lie's family heirloom in town." The man in black robes put away the box and said calmly, "You haven't been discovered yet, but if you are, you will end up like this sooner or later."

What would happen if a rebellious ghost were discovered in a human city?

This is a question that's not easy to answer, but the answer is there.

Ju Qiuming lowered his head in a daze, looking at his hands. He slowly reached out his hand, as if he wanted to touch his eyes.

But in the end, he stopped, because he knew it was pointless.

“If you don’t want to become like this, come with me, little brother.”

The man in black robes made a startling statement, addressing Ju Qiuming as his younger brother.

"The people of Chaos City have spread the word: he's being watched. The Seven Luminaries Empire is already investigating you. They may not have realized you're a rebellious ghost, and perhaps you really can hide among humans for a lifetime... But will your blood really remain cold like this? For a lifetime?!"

Ju Qiuming is the most rebellious of all rebellious ghosts. His blood is cold, and since his birth, he has hardly ever been moved or emotionally affected by anything. He regards all things as worthless, making him the most rebellious of all rebellious ghosts. A rebellious ghost like him can truly hide among humans for a lifetime.

Ju Qiuming said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, I can't accept this, because I've only met you twice..."

The last time was in the chaotic province during the middle of the term, and now it's the second time.

Ju Qiuming has lived in human society for over twenty years. A person met you twice and told you that you are not human.

Despite the overwhelming evidence presented by the other party, Ju Qiuming still could not accept it.

"But you have already verified your bloodline; you already know what you are," the man in black robes said in a low voice. "Back when the night sky was conquered, the three of us brothers were scattered to the winds. For so many years, I have been trying to find you and my eldest brother..."

Ju Qiuming said in a low voice, "I have an older brother?"

“Yes.” The man in black robes nodded and said, “My elder brother is three years older than me and much more mature. He has great ambitions. Although I have never seen him since that day, he is definitely still alive. A man like him would never die in obscurity.”

Ju Qiuming fell silent again.

He had lived in human society for twenty-one years, and before that midterm commission, he had never considered that he was not human.

But in fact, he is not human; he is a rebellious ghost.

He knew that twenty-one years ago, the night sky was breached, and his family was destroyed, but he didn't truly grasp the feeling. Rebellious spirits are inherently cold-blooded; if a rebellious spirit grew up among other rebellious spirits, perhaps they would better understand the preciousness of that blood connection. But Ju Qiuming grew up in human society, and subconsciously, he considered himself a human being, not a rebellious spirit. Coupled with his inherently cold-blooded nature, even after learning of his family's destruction, he could only think, "Oh, I see."

The man in black robes knew what Ju Qiuming was thinking just by looking at him.

An indescribable sorrow welled up in his heart... Ju Qiuming's evolution was too successful.

He was several years older than Ju Qiuming and had revealed his red eyes dozens of times so far, which might be partly due to his failed evolution; as a rebellious ghost, he was somewhat sentimental. But Ju Qiuming, without anyone teaching him to actively control his emotions, had never revealed them even once... This was truly outrageous.

The evolution was too successful.

Ironically, the criterion for judging the success of the demon's evolution is that it resembles a human, which is what saddens him.

"...Very well." Finally, the man in black robes sighed and said, "Since you still can't make a decision, I won't force you. But you must understand that every day you stay in the Seven Luminaries increases the chance of being exposed. Your identity is like a wild beast escaped from a zoo; anyone has the right to attack you. If it really comes to that, it will be too late..."

He paused for a moment, then said in a low voice, "I hope that when we meet again, you will have made your decision... As for how to contact me, I regret that I cannot give it to you. I bear the lives of countless kin on my shoulders, and I preserve the last flame of 'Rebellious Ghost' in this world."

See you another day.

The figure of the man in black robes vanished without a trace.

".."

Ju Qiuming walked out of the alley.

The sun was shining brightly outside. Although it was the height of summer, the sun was not harsh; instead, it felt quite gentle. There weren't many people around. Some elderly people were leisurely lying on chairs, enjoying the sunshine with their eyes closed. A fluffy puppy was being chased by adult chickens, whimpering, which made the children nearby laugh uncontrollably.

What a peaceful and serene scene!

Ju Qiuming silently raised his head and tugged at his clothes.

He was a little cold.

Chapter Nineteen: If we don't resist, our entire clan will perish!

"I have other things to do, let's say goodbye here."

At an intersection, Ying Qin Guan stopped. He was in a bad mood because of those eyes, and he couldn't stand the constant stares from people around him who thought, "This man must be very rich."

The women didn't try to stop them, and they parted ways at the crossroads, though Ji Fa gave them a word of advice.

"Don't forget our promise."

She was referring to the fight. Ying Qin Guan nodded and said, "See you tonight."

Luo Shui pricked up her ears, but heard nothing more. Ruo Ye glanced suspiciously at Ji Fa and Ying Qin Guan, hesitating to speak, but ultimately said nothing.

..

..

What are you doing here?

A voice suddenly rang out behind him, startling Ying Qin Guan so much that his heart almost stopped. He turned around... and there was Mu Nan Dong with a stern face. He was still wearing that black robe, and his silver hair was tied up in the middle.

"It's you..." Ying Qin Guan muttered weakly, "Before asking others this question, why don't you first explain why you're here... Wait! You, who never leaves the school gates, actually went out today, could it be—"

Ying Qin Guan looked around warily, trying to find Mu Nan Dong's female companion.

"Stop your pointless and meaningless speculation," Mu Nandong said coldly. "I just came out to buy something that I can't buy at school."

"Really? I don't believe it."

"Whether you believe it or not is up to you." Mu Nandong strode forward and continued walking.

Ying Qin Guan had nothing to do for the time being, so he followed along.

"What are you going to buy that made you go out all the way here?"

Mu Nandong raised his head slightly and said, "For some more dangerous items, you need to show your advanced alchemist certificate and sign the agreement in person."

"Is that so..." Ying Qin Guan hesitated for a moment, wanting to say something but ultimately remained silent.

However, Mu Nandong noticed this. He didn't stop walking and said coldly, "Do you have anything to say?"

When asked this, Ying Qin Guan stopped hiding his intentions and said, "It's about the Rebellious Ghost... Do you know about the Rebellious Ghost's eyes?"

"Hmm," Mu Nandong replied briefly.

"This...don't you think this is a little bit...?" Ying Qin Guan gestured, making it difficult for ordinary people to understand what he was saying. "No matter what, using their eyes to do these things is going too far...and why must we exterminate all the foreign races? If we do that, what's the difference between a country that commits massacres and the Black Dragon Empire?"

The Black Dragon Empire's turning back the clock refers to their 'human-to-human' massacres, while the allied forces of various countries, although they massacred the night sky, theoretically belonged to 'human-to-human' massacres.

Mu Nandong continued walking, his expression calm, and said, "The water here is a bit deeper than you think. Do you want to hear it?"

Ying Qin Guan frowned and said, "Hmm..."

"First, regarding the alien races, we must state their four characteristics, which preclude humans from coexisting with them."

Mu Nandong coldly said:

"First, other races can overcome reproductive barriers with humans."

"Secondly, the genes of other races are stronger, and the children born from the union of other races and humans will also be of other races."

"Third, the alien races are becoming more and more like humans. For example, the Rebellious Ghosts, if they weren't red-eyed, would be no different from ordinary humans."

"Fourth, and most importantly," Mu Nandong paused, then continued, "that is, the Primordial Alien Race can control everything about the alien races... Long before the Black Dragon Empire, humanity had roughly confirmed this. The Primordial Alien Race can defy the will of the alien races and forcibly control their bodies. According to the Black Dragon Empire's research, it is probably due to the genes of the Primordial Alien Race, which we will tentatively call the Primordial Genes... Currently, it seems that children born to aliens and humans will still inherit the Primordial Genes."

"As for the progenitor alien race, it cannot be completely confirmed that it can control all alien races through the progenitor genes. However, several progenitor alien races have already demonstrated the ability to control the alien races of their lineage."

He stopped, turned around, looked at Ying Qin Guan, whose expression had suddenly become blank, and said coldly, "Judging from your expression, you should understand what this means."

".."

Ying Qin opened his mouth, but for a moment he couldn't say anything.

He knew all four points, but had never combined them before. But now, at this moment, as Mu Nandong stated them together, Ying Qin Guan suddenly felt...

It's a miracle that humanity has survived to this day.

Mu Nandong turned back, his tone calm and collected, "Your expression tells me that you think it's a miracle that humanity has survived to this day, and I don't deny that. But it's not as exaggerated as you imagine. Early alien races looked very different from humans. They only became more and more like humans through generations of evolution. In the past, alien races simply couldn't hide their identities among humans."

Ying Qin Guan nodded silently.

He roughly understood the meaning of these four points combined.

First, crossing reproductive isolation, literally, means "to cross".

Secondly, the children of humans and other races will inevitably be of different races. This is terrifying. It means that one day, everyone in the world will be of different races, and the extinction of the human race is only a matter of time.

Thirdly...the alien races are becoming more and more like humans, which means that before engaging in reproduction, everyone has to consider one question: could the person in front of you be an alien?

The fourth point, which is also the concluding point.

If there were only the first three points and no fourth, humanity might be able to accept it. After all, the alien races are becoming more and more like humans, and they generally possess certain racial talents. If that were all, perhaps some people would abandon their own race to accept the aliens. But if a fourth point is added...

The progenitor alien race was able to control all the alien races in his lineage!

what does this mean? !

For example, if the bloodline of the Rebellious Demons spreads, the entire world will become a Rebellious Demon world. At that time, the ancestral alien race, the source of the Rebellious Demons' bloodline, will appear...

The entire world instantly fell into the hands of the progenitor of the rebellious demon race.

Yes, the whole world was instantly overrun!

How terrifying is this?!

No need for war, no need for conspiracies or tricks; an ancestral alien race can simply let its descendants blend into the human population and conceal their identities for ten, a hundred, a thousand, or even ten thousand years...
