Chapter 661 Grandfather’s Memorable Scene_1
"Oh? You actually have friends from the Demon Clan?" Green Fox tilted his head back for a sip of wine, expressing slight surprise.
"Yes, I’ve signed a soul contract with them. Unfortunately, they’ve set off on their own journey of growth and I have no idea when we’ll meet again."
Su Chengyu felt a pang of longing for Bai Qiu and Ao Tian. Bai Qiu, in his Little White Cat form, was adorably gawky. Ao Tian, though tactless, loquacious, and fond of showing off, was truly loyal to his friends.
"If they willingly signed a soul contract with you, without coercion, it means that they regard you as a significant figure in their lives, ready to face life and death alongside you."
Green Fox continued his conversation as he sipped his wine, "Do you know why the officials of Xia Country ruthlessly exterminate the Demon Clan?"
Su Chengyu responded lightly, "The official reason of the government is that the Demon Clan is a source of chaos and evil. But this law of killing the demons is not exclusive to Xia Country. Since ancient times, it’s been said that humans and demons walk distinct paths, and those who do not belong to our clan must have divergent motives. However, I’m more inclined to believe that this strategy is driven by self-interest. Presently, the Human Clan reigns supreme while the Demon Clan, with their immense power, poses a threat to human rule, leading to wars. Xia Country was involved in the Great War a century ago, a bloody lesson indeed."
Green Fox set down his wine jar, "Well said, all strife in the world is driven by self-interest. The Human Clan and Demon Clan are destined to find it difficult to peacefully coexist. However, Xia Country’s measures against the Demon Clan have been the harshest throughout history, turning the two clans into mortal enemies. This involves a major secret."
Su Chengyu, having dealt with Bai Qiu and Ao Tian, was relatively more knowledgeable about the Demon Clan.
Though there have always been conflicts between humans and demons, it is normal to a certain extent, because even within the Human Clan, and even between countries, battles ensue. It wasn’t like the Human Clan and Demon Clan were always antagonistic. There used to be instances of intermarriages and love stories between the two as well.
