485: Mysophobia
The Evil Demon Nine Ancestor said with a chilling smile, “Lilith is indeed beautiful. Such a pure and tender beauty makes even my heart stir. Doesn’t it stir yours?”
Upon hearing this, Ghost Cold’s mind conjured the elegant, snow-white, blood-colored figure.
He couldn’t help but swallow.
Which male creature among the foreign races could not be moved by Lilith?
If it weren't for her extremely high status, which no one dared to provoke, she would have long been devoured by countless madmen among the foreign races.
In the foreign races, being too beautiful without corresponding strength or protection was a curse!
Moreover, she was so arrogant, calling herself a Queen!
For male creatures, trampling such a woman underfoot… the feeling was indescribable.
Just thinking about it made his heart race!
Before, Ghost Cold never dared to think such things.
After all, that would be trampling the dignity of the Bloodline Race.
But today was different.
The Demon Clan was already planning to devour the Bloodline Race.
Their wolfish ambitions were gradually being revealed; as long as they won, what would the Bloodline Race be then?
If the Bloodline Race was nothing, then what was Lilith?
Finally, Ghost Cold revealed an evil smile!
...
Ting Qiao’s residence.
“Thump, thump, thump.”
A series of urgent knocks on the door reached Xiao Fan’s ears.
He wondered why the rush.
He stepped forward, opened the door, and faced Lilith, whose figure was proud and entirely snow-white, his expression unchanged.
“Do… you have something?”
Lilith did not respond.
Because her attention was completely drawn to the blood-red words on the wall.
“Despicable Demon, leave Your Highness Lilith. This is not a threat, it’s an order!”
Although she did not possess the Kong Wu Realm like Xiao Fan.
But as Lilith, with an extremely high Bloodline Rank, she quickly determined that this was definitely not left by her own clansmen.
However, she thought Ting Qiao didn't know, so she said with a slight panic, “Listen to me explain.”
“This has nothing to do with us.”
“It must be the Demon Clan who did this!”
Ting Qiao calmly shook his head and said, “I know.”
“You… know?” Lilith was a little surprised, but quickly breathed a sigh of relief, and her hanging heart settled.
“It’s good that you know.”
If Ting Qiao misunderstood her as an ungrateful person, she definitely couldn’t bear it.
But soon, she couldn’t bear it again.
She sniffed her nose and frowned, “Your room, why does it smell so…”
“This is too dirty.”
“Oh my goodness.”
“How can you live here?”
Hearing this, Xiao Fan’s mood instantly soured.
This room was clearly very tidy, and the smell was normal.
How did it become like a pigsty in Lilith’s mouth?
But he hadn’t refuted yet.
Lilith raised her hand, and a streak of blood-color swept through, using blood to help him tidy up the room.
After just a few seconds, the already clean floor became even more pristine, as white as Lilith’s skin, without a speck of dust.
Every corner of the room, from top to bottom, was refreshed under her cleaning.
Finally, she drew the blood elements used for cleaning back to her, and they were covered in dust, some trash, debris, and even the corpses of some small insects.
These were all garbage hidden in the nooks and crannies of the house, which Xiao Fan was too lazy to tidy up.
But he didn’t expect Lilith to be particularly bothered by this.
She had extreme mysophobia.
Because the Bloodline Race naturally liked clean things and disliked disgusting, dirty things, the Bloodline Race actually quite disliked the Demon Clan.
Because the Demon Clan looked ugly, and their bodies were dark and dirty; the Human Race looked ten times better than them.
Lilith had also been a princess since childhood; for her, a spotless living environment was merely a basic requirement.
All items had to be neatly arranged.
Decorations had to be incredibly exquisite; even a slight rough feel was unacceptable.
Therefore, Ting Qiao’s living place, for ordinary people, was absolutely clean and tidy.
But for her, it was definitely not enough; in fact, as soon as she entered the door, she felt particularly uncomfortable, her obsessive-compulsive disorder maxed out.
This led to her, the Queen, being unable to resist tidying his room with her own hands.
“This is more like it.”
Lilith finally breathed a sigh of relief and naturally plopped down on the sofa.
But as soon as she sat down, she immediately frowned again; the sofa was too rough, pricking her backside.
So she directly put the sofa into her ring and took out a personal, exquisite seat.
Only then did she completely relax.
“Whew…” She not only let out a long breath but also patted her chest, as if she had just been enduring some inhuman torture.
Xiao Fan shook his head helplessly.
He actually didn’t think Lilith was spoiled or anything like that.
Because he knew that some people lived this way since childhood, and their worldview was completely different from yours. If he put himself in her shoes, if he had been a prince of the Bloodline Race since childhood, he might be similar to Lilith.
Therefore, putting oneself in another’s shoes was the true divine skill.
In combat, he could predict the enemy’s next actions.
In life, he could reduce many conflicts between people.
At this moment, Lilith crossed her legs, but her robe was very neat, with no skin exposed from her waist to her ankles, so her leg contours were not visible.
The only parts of her exposed were her neck, collarbone, and hands; even her clothes had long sleeves.
Sitting there, she exuded an air of elegance and propriety.
This surprised Xiao Fan a little.
“What… kind of look is that?” Lilith frowned slightly.
Ting Qiao shook his head and said, “I once saw a recording of your Demon King Group, the part where you first appeared at Shanhai Pass and massacred the Human Race.”
“At that time, your gaze and demeanor were very… different from now.”
Lilith suddenly snorted coldly, “Don’t ever mention that incident to me again.”
Just thinking about it made her recall the scene of Xiao Fan slapping her face in front of everyone, which made her angry, annoyed, and furious!
However, she still explained to Ting Qiao.
“At that time, the order from above was to attack their morale, to make us destroy the Human Race’s fighting spirit, which is why I displayed that demeanor.”
At this point, Lilith suddenly revealed a melancholic expression.
“Since childhood, my elders at home told me that it was only natural for foreign races to kill the Human Race.”
“As for why, I also learned from an elder that it was essentially a war of plunder caused by the demands of those in power for resources and land.”
“When that elder of mine told me all this, I suddenly felt that none of it had any meaning.”
“Both sides fighting back and forth, it’s only for profit.”
“So, since I was little, I felt that the word ‘profit’ was ugly, as ugly as the Demon Clan, except for you.”
“But later, that elder of mine told me again that profit is not wrong, and resources are not wrong.”
“What’s wrong is the constantly expanding desire of every intelligent life form; that is the root of disaster.”
“When I heard that, I didn’t really feel anything.”
“My elder said, ‘Because you are a beneficiary of profit, you cannot understand what all of this truly means.’ ”
“ ‘When you get to the battlefield, you will know.’ ”
“Now, I have been on the battlefield for some time.”
“I’ve seen many people die, dying inexplicably, without value, including the cannon fodder tactics commonly used by our various races on the battlefield, which also disgusts me.”
“I am increasingly able to understand those words my elder told me.”
“And I am increasingly feeling that this world… is terrible.”
“But other people, like Huang Lin and Ghost Cold, they don’t seem to feel this way; they think all of this is normal.”
“I cannot understand.”
Lilith shook her head.
Xiao Fan then took over the conversation, smiling faintly, “Perhaps because the elders who taught them since childhood weren’t as wise as the one in your family.”
Lilith nodded and said, “Yes, that elder in my family must be the wisest person in the entire foreign race!”
“Oh?” Xiao Fan raised an eyebrow.
“Don’t you know?” Lilith frowned and said, “That elder is my godfather.”
“Ah?” Xiao Fan was still a little confused.
Your godfather?
And then what?
