Quick Wear: Oops, the mission target is crying again

Chapter 1174 The Demon Hunter's Great Demon 19

Lingyao had just finished dealing with one child, and now another one had arrived.

She simply couldn't handle it.

After listening to Fang Shui's account of Qifang Village, she nodded, indicating that she understood.

Then she handed Fang Shui a bag of roasted chestnuts she had bought outside, and then slipped away to her room.

This tactic is clearly effective against water.

After all, in Fang Shui's eyes, as long as there's food, that's enough.

The next day, Lingyao was dragged out by Fang Shui to buy her things she needed for the Demon Hunter Academy.

Seeing how reluctant she was to spend the money, Lingyao took a handful of silver from the money she had just received from selling talismans and gave it to her.

She's her little sister when she's out and about; don't embarrass her!

The Demon Hunter Academy welcomed a new batch of students in great enthusiasm.

At first, everyone thought it was just a routine recruitment event for the demon hunter academy, but a month later, the new demon hunters faced their first assessment.

The fact that Lingyao and Baili Qing'er were both rated as Upper Earth-level Demon Slayers in their first assessment shocked the academy.

Afterwards, the two of them repeatedly surprised and amazed everyone in the assessments.

Baili Qing'er, who thought she would leave everyone else in the dust, was furious.

He smashes cups at home every day.

Although she and Yu Lingyao were always given the same grade in each assessment, Yu Lingyao always scored a few points higher than her in each assessment.

No more, no less, just a few points.

So in the first few assessments, she thought it was definitely because Yu Lingyao was lucky and because she was careless.

She thought that as long as she worked harder, she would definitely be able to surpass her in the next assessment.

As a result, she was almost driven mad by her cultivation, spending all her time practicing drawing talismans and learning how to set up formations and cast spells, except for eating and sleeping.

She even refused invitations from her girlfriends to recite poetry and sing songs together.

As a result, she still lost to Lingyao in every assessment.

For two whole years, Baili Qing'er went from thirteen to fifteen and never won a single game.

In the next assessment, she learned that Lingyao had been promoted to Earth-level Demon Catcher at the same time as her, and that Lingyao's score was two points higher than hers.

Baili Qing'er was so angry she fainted.

The next day, they went straight to Lingyao's residence at the Demon Hunter Academy.

Demon hunters below the prefecture level live in rooms with three people per room at the Demon Hunter Academy.

You can choose who you live with.

Lingyao has just been promoted to a high-ranking demon hunter, and the imperial court has not yet assigned her a residence, so she is temporarily living in the demon hunter academy.

He lived with Fang Shui and a female demon hunter named He Qinqin.

When Baili Qing'er kicked open the door to their residence.

He Qinqin and Fang Shui were discussing which restaurant to go to with Lingyao for a nice meal to celebrate Lingyao's promotion to Earth-level Demon Slayer.

Fang Shui is still a Yellow-level demon hunter these past two years, but her personality has become much more lively than it was two years ago.

This is all thanks to He Qinqin's influence. He Qinqin just became a Xuan-level demon hunter this year, and her family runs a teahouse in the main county.

He Qinqin, who has been helping out at the teahouse since she was a child, has a very cheerful and generous personality.

So when she heard the door slam open, she was startled at first, and when she saw Baili Qing'er, she slammed her hand on the table and stood up.

"Baili Qing'er, what are you trying to do? You're scaring me to death, you know?"

Logically speaking, given Baili Qing'er's current level as a demon hunter, the two of them are subordinates and should address Baili Qing'er as "Master".

However, because Lingyao, a fellow demon hunter of the same level, was in the dormitory, they were not so timid when facing Baili Qing'er.

Moreover, Baili Qing'er and Ling Yao have never gotten along.

They naturally wouldn't have much affection for Baili Qing'er.

Baili Qing'er never took He Qinqin seriously.

So she didn't care what He Qinqin said.

He looked at Lingyao with bloodshot eyes.

The three of them then heard Baili Qing'er, who was usually aloof, shout.

"Yu Lingyao, you're doing this on purpose, aren't you? Your strength is definitely more than just one point higher than mine. You could just leave me by ten or even several points, or you could just become a Heavenly-level Demon Hunter. I never want to be on the same level as you again!"

Lingyao remained silent.

She did deliberately lower her score, but not to suppress her own, but because she was afraid that if her level rose too quickly, it would attract the attention of the imperial court.

She's carrying a huge demon with her, which is too conspicuous and not a good thing.

But she can't rise too slowly either.

After all, the talent she displayed when she first came in couldn't just disappear all at once, or people would still be suspicious.

Moreover, she needs to be promoted to the prefecture level as soon as possible, so that she can bring the people of Qifang Village to the main prefecture.

It's not a good idea for the remaining twenty-odd people from Qifang Village to stay temporarily in Liuhua Village.

Moreover, the people of Liuhua Village will soon be relocated to Liuyeqing's area.

With only about a hundred people in Liuhua Village, Liu Yeqing had a headache dealing with the people in her own village, so naturally, only she and Fang Shui could handle the people in Qifang Village.

Looking at Baili Qing'er, who was panting heavily with anger.

Lingyao really didn't know what to say.

Try to comfort her; she won't.

I promised her I'd really surpass her by a whole level next time, but she doesn't want to for now.

What should I do?

Although Lingyao remained expressionless, she was frantically searching for a solution in her mind.

The main problem is that Baili Qing'er is only fifteen years old this year. If she were two years older, Lingyao would have kicked her out immediately.

Baili Qing'er was so angry that her chest heaved violently.

Standing beside her was Ling Yao, who had a calm expression, and Fang Shui and He Qinqin, who were staring at each other and looking at Baili Qing'er with strange expressions.

Baili Qing'er had been holding it in for two years, but she couldn't hold it in any longer and burst into tears.

She cried so hard, she was completely devastated.

Fang Shui and He Qinqin were both stunned.

They rushed over to tell her to stop crying, otherwise people would think they had done something to her.

As a result, Baili Qing'er cried even harder.

"It's all because you guys bullied me! I just wanted to win once, I just wanted to beat Yu Lingyao once, why is it so hard? Waaaaah..."

Lingyao is numb.

Looking at Fang Shui and He Qinqin, who were pacing anxiously in the room, and Baili Qing'er, who was wailing with her mouth open.

Lingyao's mind was in turmoil.

Unable to hold back, she said, "Shut up, stop crying."

Ling Yao's voice wasn't loud, but Baili Qing'er, who had just been howling, immediately fell silent.

After a fit of crying and fussing, she belatedly realized that she had somewhat embarrassed the Baili family.

Her face turned aloof again.

She took out a handkerchief and wiped the tears from her face.

He Qinqin is a cheerful person and also has a very soft heart.

Although she had previously disliked Baili Qing'er's arrogant attitude of putting her nose on her eyes, she softened her tone now.

"Alright, stop crying. If even Earth-level demon hunters like you have to cry, where are we Yellow and Mystic-level demon hunters supposed to cry?"

"And let me tell you, you shouldn't compare yourself to her anymore. Comparisons only lead to a lot of negative thoughts. Actually, she never prepares for any of your assessments, and she never uses her full strength. She can draw two high-grade demon-suppressing talismans every day. What are you comparing yourself to her for..."
