Chapter 50 Chapter 50 Team Formation Restrictions

In front of Jiang Liu, a large piece of beef was neatly sliced one piece after another. He gently picked up a slice, put it into his mouth, and the rich aroma of meat instantly filled his mouth, making his eyes squint with satisfaction.

Having stayed at the Great Buddha Temple so long, eating vegetarian food every day, his taste buds had grown dull. Finally, he had the chance to savor meat again, which was not easy to come by.

Daoji glanced at Jiang Liu's refined movements and then at the Little Witch beside him, who was gleefully devouring a large chunk of beef. Finally, his gaze settled on a large piece of beef in his own hands. He hesitated but, driven by unbearable hunger and the tempting smell of the meat, he swallowed and tore off a small strip.

"Amitabha, 'the meat and wine pass through but the Buddha stays in my heart.' What my fellow monk said makes sense, I do this out of necessity...", watching the small strip of beef he had torn off, Daoji quietly justified his action to himself.

He didn't care anymore that the scriptures described wine as sour and meat as foul. Slowly, he opened his mouth and put the small strip of roasted beef inside.

His eyes lit up instantly. After chewing quickly a few times, Daoji tore off another big piece…

Observing Daoji and the Little Witch enjoying their meal, Jiang Liu smiled secretly to himself but said nothing.

In the Demon-Suppressing Hall, the two men and the demon ate their meat in peace, creating a quiet yet harmonious atmosphere.

"By the way, Little Witch, you mentioned your father earlier. Where is he?", perhaps the quiet was a bit too much, while eating his meat, Jiang Liu turned to ask the Little Witch beside him.

The Little Witch had a Demon General Level cultivation from such a young age, so her so-called father's cultivation must be even more extraordinary. Jiang Liu didn't want to be walking along nicely only to be killed by a powerful demon.

Fooling the Little Witch was easy, but her father was likely not going to be deceived.

"I was abandoned by my father because I'm cute, thrown from the Demon Realm into this Demon-Suppressing Hall...", upon hearing Jiang Liu's question, the Little Witch paused in her eating, and then, seemingly unconcerned, she replied.

"Ah? Abandoned because you're cute?", the Little Witch's words stunned Jiang Liu for a moment.

However, considering that the Demon Realm's values were almost entirely opposite those of the human world, Jiang Liu came to accept it.

And no wonder the Wolf Demon had commented on her cuteness, making the Little Witch flare up immediately.

"Yes, being pretty, being cute, what's the use? You need to be strong, right?", the Little Witch nodded and calmly answered.

In her mind, being abandoned because of being cute was not difficult to understand.

In modern society, many matters are often discussed over a meal, as it indeed seems more convenient to chat while eating.

Perhaps because they were sharing meat, her fear of Jiang Liu seemed to have lessened a bit, and she even dared to initiate conversation with him, her eyes curious, "I remember reading in books that in your Human Realm, men prefer women who are gentle and boneless, with slim figures, right?"

"Quite right," Jiang Liu nodded.

"Women who are weak are more liked by men? Humans are really strange, aren't they? Aren't such women just burdens? In our Demon Realm, the stronger a woman is, the more people pursue her. Even among ordinary demons, if a female is interested in a male, she usually shows off her strength to attract him.

For example, a robust witch carrying a big rock to show her power, that's what catches more attention," the Little Witch explained.

Imagining a robust woman carrying a big rock walking past, looking more manly than real men, surrounded by a horde of men ardently wooing her…

Jiang Liu shook his head and cast the image from his mind, feeling it was too beautiful to behold.

Simultaneously, his understanding of the starkly contrasting values between the Demon Realm and the Human Realm deepened.

"The fearsome Demon Realm, no wonder humans have always found demons terrifying," Daoji murmured in a low voice beside him, obviously startled by the utterly different perspectives of the Demon Realm compared to the Human Realm.

After chatting casually with the Little Witch for a while, Jiang Liu not only gained some understanding of the situation in the Demon Realm but also learned more about her situation.

Beneath the Demon-Suppressing Hall, there lay a Demon Cave, something Jiang Liu had known for a while, and some demons from the cave would enter the Demon-Suppressing Hall to serve as training for the disciples of the Great Buddha Temple, which Jiang Liu also understood.

The Little Witch was originally a demon from the Demon Cave, but because she looked cute, her father felt it was disgraceful, so he simply threw her into the Demon-Suppressing Hall to fend for herself.

In the eyes of the demons in the Demon Cave, those in the Demon-Suppressing Hall were always in imminent danger, given that bald monks would periodically come in and kill a batch...

"Alright, we've rested enough, let's continue,"

Having eaten and discussed what needed to be discussed, and with time moving on, Jiang Liu stood up and continued walking through the Demon-Suppressing Hall with Daoji and the Little Witch in tow.

Along the way, they encountered several monsters, but Jiang Liu did not rush to slay them. Instead, he let the Little Witch take action and subdue them.

Once at the demon level, they could speak human language, so it was possible to communicate with them.

Under the Little Witch's force, these monsters faced life-or-death decisions and, completely devoid of any sense of dignity, they readily agreed to become Jiang Liu's minions.

Accompanied by several monsters, Jiang Liu also experimented to see that all demon-level monsters could team up with him.

As for the Demon Soldier level monsters, the stronger ones could not, but the weaker ones could...

"The realm of Demon Soldiers spans levels 20-30. The stronger ones are probably above level 25, while the weaker ones are likely below level 25..."

After capturing and experimenting with several more monsters, Jiang Liu pondered the team formation situation internally.

It appeared that if the Demon Soldier level monsters were weak, they could team up with him. So did that mean teaming up had nothing to do with so-called favorability but was mainly about the power gap?

Given that he was now level 13, it seemed that he couldn't team up with monsters more than about 10 levels higher than him.

At that thought, Jiang Liu sighed somewhat helplessly. He had originally hoped the Little Witch could help him fight monsters and level up quickly. It looked like that would be completely impossible for a while.

At this moment, Jiang Liu finally understood the conditions and restrictions for forming a team.

Let's not discuss the specifics of Jiang Liu and his party walking through the Demon-Suppressing Hall and leveling up through fighting monsters.

Meanwhile, in the deepest part of the Demon-Suppressing Hall, a huge altar suddenly burst into intense light.

Hisss hisss hisss...

Blue lightning appeared out of nowhere, and within this lightning, a leopard, cow-calf-sized with bizarre purple-red fur and elegant steps, emerged, walking like a human being.

"I never expected this, the old master actually left a seed of Demon Fire in the miss's body and hid her in this Demon-Suppressing Hall. If I can find her first, it'll be a great accomplishment,"

"However, there's a high chance I'll encounter Baldy monks in this Demon-Suppressing Hall, so I better be careful,"

Bathed in blue lightning, the purple leopard looked around vigilantly, then its figure flashed like lightning and disappeared in an instant.
