Xu Liao was slightly surprised. Qu Lei's subtle attitude showed that she was trying to accept that she wasn't her boyfriend's only girlfriend.
It wasn't that he didn't think that since he was already so powerful, why did he have to follow the rules of humans?
Monogamy was a civilization's progress, it was also the result of the awakening of women's rights. It influenced the laws of most countries, using the law to protect the rights of women.
If Xu Liao had a choice, he would have been with Qu Lei from the start. However, he didn't expect that fate would play tricks on him. When he thought that he couldn't gain Qu Lei's affection and was about to give up, another relationship appeared.
When he confirmed his relationship with Bai Qiulian, he realized that he had misunderstood Qu Lei. At that time, he was only half a step away from entering the heart of the "goddess".
This kind of feeling, even though Xu Liao's state of mind had been tempered a thousand times, he still didn't feel good.
He didn't want to give up on the relationship with Bai Qiulian, he also didn't want to give up on his first love with Qu Lei.
However, the most important thing was not what he thought, but how these two independent girls with their own personalities would choose this relationship.
This was a two-way choice, not a one-way one!
Xu Liao couldn't decide all of this. Even though he had thousands of spells and countless supernatural powers, he couldn't help in the relationship aspect.
After all, this kind of thing couldn't be settled with external help!
Xu Liao looked at Qu Lei quietly. He knew that Qu Lei had already made a decision that was very beneficial to him. He obviously wouldn't be stupid enough to point this out. He smiled and said: "The Nine Heavens Immortal Qi that you cultivate is a technique created by the Thousand Demon Guild Leader. Even though I don't know what its limit is, at least you won't have any bottlenecks before the Da Yan Shi."
Xu Liao carefully taught Qu Lei how to use the Battle Beast Rainbow Centipede. At the same time, he also taught Qu Lei the transformation of the Two Realm Banner.
The transformation of the Two World Banner was a cultivation technique that the Jade Tripod lineage had to cultivate. Almost everyone in the Jade Tripod lineage cultivated it. This cultivation technique was good at teleporting the void, making it a top-grade escape technique.
Back then, Yang Shuhua had relied on this move to easily save Xu Liao from Tidal 'er's clutches, and even rendered the Five-Colored Banners' Vice Commander helpless.
After experiencing so many things, Xu Liao gradually realised that although the Thousand Demons Guild was still powerful, they might not be able to protect everyone's safety. Especially for a leader like him who was not a direct descendant of the Thousand Demons Guild, he did not have a protective umbrella over his head. Most of the time, he had to face danger by himself.
If he himself was in danger, then those close to him naturally would not be especially safe. In the past, he was just an ordinary demon, thinking about how to protect his family. It was like a naughty child promising his friends, "When I become the emperor in the future, I will give you the position of a great general." It was just a childish joke.
Now that he had become a high-ranking member of the Thousand Demons Guild and had countless methods, he could already try to protect the people around him.
There were many strange things in this world. The weak would always have lofty sentiments, thinking that they could protect the people and things that they loved. However, the strong would always know that no matter how strong they were, they would always be powerless. This was one of the strange things.
When Xu Liao accompanied Qu Lei to equip the Battle Beast Rainbow Centipede, Zhao Yanqin had been holding her cheeks and watching from the side. Suddenly, she interrupted and asked, "Xu Liao, why do you look so busy now? Much busier than before? The police department doesn't have that many things for you to handle! "
Xu Liao smiled and said, "Recently, the police department has been expanding. I have to keep a close eye on it to prevent any problems from happening."
Zhao Yanqin held her cheeks and said, "What a boring feeling! Xu Liao, you are becoming more and more like an adult. Every day, you have endless work to do. Do you plan to live like this for thousands of years? "
Xu Liao was slightly stunned. There were many types of demons' attitudes towards life. Some were determined to improve themselves, some were calm, some were extravagant, and some were focused on their hobbies. He was sure that he was not a workaholic, nor did he love to work. However, the changes in him, not to mention Zhao Yanqin, even he himself could feel it.
Xu Liao could only smile bitterly and said, "There are some things that are beyond my control!"
Zhao Yanqin said calmly, "I know! I know more about demons than you do. Even if you become a demon, you have not changed your perception of a human. Other than the necessary contact, you have not participated in any social interactions between demons. "
Xu Liao asked with a smile, "I've already seen many demons every day. Are there no social interactions between demons?"
Qu Lei retracted her Rainbow Centipede and could not help but say, "At the very least, I have never seen you participate in a meet-and-greet with demons of the same age. I reckon you don't know about this gathering either, right?"
Xu Liao was slightly stunned. He really did not know about a meet-and-greet with demons of the same age. After a brief search of the police department's database, he discovered that this gathering was actually the top of the top ten social gatherings for demons in Bei Du City.
Almost all demons who had newly awakened their bloodlines would participate in this gathering to get to know their own kind in the same city.
After he awakened his bloodline, he was targeted by Sun Bofang and became a disciple of Dongxuanxian School. After that, he rose rapidly and his status rose higher and higher. Although Zhao Yanqin was his guide, she had never suggested that he participate in the gathering, because he no longer needed it.
Qu Lei played with the combat beast Rainbow Centipede for a while and said calmly, "I'm also going to Dongxuanxian School to become a disciple. I won't be back for a long time. If you have the time, come to Dongxuanxian School to visit me."
Zhao Yanqin spread her hands, indicating that she did not know about this matter either. She acted as if she was telling Xu Liao not to find trouble with her.
Xu Liao roughly understood Qu Lei's mentality. Although she had made up her mind, she wanted to give herself some time to calm down and see if she could really accept this matter. At the same time, she was also planning to give Xu Liao a chance to solve the final hurdle of this problem.
Xu Liao would not reject this matter, and Qu Lei had also tacitly agreed to it. However, he still needed Bai Qiulian's approval before the three of them could be together.
Xu Liao sighed. Qu Lei was still very understanding, but he did not know how to comfort her.
At a time when she needed him so much, Qu Lei had to bear the loneliness alone. This made him feel very much like a bastard.
Xu Liao gently patted Qu Lei's small hand. Qu Lei did not shake it off. The two of them quietly looked at each other for a while, and then Qu Lei said in a low voice, "I have to go. If you are willing to send me off on the subway tomorrow."
Xu Liao said in a low voice, "Okay!"
Qu Lei got up and left alone. Just when Xu Liao was about to get up, Qu Lei said in a low voice with her back facing him, "This time, I don't need you by my side. I have to go through this alone. Let me be a little stronger for a while!"
Xu Liao sighed and sat down again.
