Versatile Mage: Summon eight demons at the beginning

Chapter 94 Stop being a human being
……

After handing over the matter of the dragon egg to Daolong and Shengzhu, Lu Cheng returned home.

Ye Xinxia and Ding Yumian have been staying in the school library for a while. Ai Tutu seems to have something else to do and has been out for several days. Liu Xian and Liu Ru are still training with Daolong. The huge villa suddenly becomes empty and even a little deserted.

"I don't remember you being an alcoholic."

When I opened the door and walked into the living room, the first thing I saw was Mu Nujiao drinking alone.

"I'm not a drunkard." Mu Nujiao hid the wine bottle on the table in a panic with an evasive look in her eyes. However, it seemed that she drank too much and her eyesight was not good, so the bottle fell to the ground, and the wine spilled all over the floor.

"Sorry, I..." Mu Nujiao stood up drunkenly and wanted to clean up the wine on the ground, but she was careless and fell to the ground.

"Don't move after drinking so much." Lu Cheng instantly came behind Mu Nujiao, picked her up, turned and walked towards the bedroom upstairs.

Several shadow soldiers silently emerged from the shadows and quickly cleaned up the scene.

"Sorry..." Mu Nujiao was obviously drunk. She hugged Lu Cheng's neck tightly, without the usual restraint and a little bit of helplessness and distance.

Lu Cheng hugged Mu Nujiao and lay on the bed, "Why, have you done something to let me down?"

"No..." Mu Nujiao pursed her lips, wanting to say something but stopping herself.

"Is there a problem at home?" Lu Cheng asked.

Mu Nujiao shook her head, "No, it's my own problem."

In this house, Ai Tutu is the darling of the Ai family. She is not restricted in any way and can live freely.

The same goes for Ye Xinxia and Ding Yumian. They don't have to think too much because Lu Cheng is willing to shield them from all the wind and rain. They are also willing to put aside their worries and enjoy this shelter with peace of mind.

She envied them, but she also knew that she had brought this upon herself.

From the moment she first obtained resources from her family, she was trapped.

Lu Cheng once reminded her that if you are born in such an environment, unless you become the supreme controller, otherwise, you are just a tool, and the so-called freedom is gone from the moment you are born.

All the benefits they have received will be paid for in the future.

She had naively thought that if she stopped asking for more from her family, she might be able to escape, but reality was cruel and she was overthinking.

After returning from Jinlin, she tentatively asked her family about this matter.

The answer she got was very cold, colder than she had ever expected.

Lu Cheng's life and death is unknown, and coupled with her questions about the demon-related experiments, the Mu family's previous arrangements for her have changed. The kind elder of the past is no longer there, and there are only warnings that are almost threatening.

During the months that Lu Cheng disappeared, she began to be approached by marriage proposals that she had never been involved in before. She wanted to refuse, but her family asked her to remain ambiguous about these matters.

And when Lu Cheng reappeared and became the honorary member of the Magic Court and the honorary chief judge of the Imperial Capital Trial Council, her family immediately helped her break off those ambiguous relationships and asked her to continue with the previous arrangements.

She suddenly realized what Lu Cheng had said before. She had never had freedom, but she just didn't realize it. She even foolishly thought that she could get rid of those controls.

"I told you you can come to me." Lu Cheng said.

Mu Nujiao shook her head, "I don't want to cause you any trouble."

She wanted to leave the vortex of the Mu family, and the only way was to return what she had many times over. What she needed to repay was not only what she had gained, but also what she should have gained and what she should have paid, the past, present, and future, the interest on everything added up. She had to pay back all of it.

The loan had been started from the moment she was born, and even all the interest had been arranged.

She can't run away.

Unless she can become the controller of the Mu family, freedom will always be a luxury.

However, she couldn't even control herself now, so how could she control the Mu family?

The noble family is not an idiot. If she fails to get the desired result this time, she will not do it next time.

"I can help you." Lu Cheng said.

"Help me?" Mu Nujiao came close to Lu Cheng and blew faintly with her nose.

"What's the price?"

"You said that everything has a price, nothing is free."

"Can I afford this price?"

"You haven't even tried it, how do you know you can't afford it?" Lu Cheng reached out and pinched Mu Nujiao's nose, then silently moved back some distance.

There was a strong smell of alcohol, but given the current atmosphere, he couldn't be too direct.

Mu Nujiao sobered up a bit, pursed her lips and shook her head. Any relationship requires give and take, Lu Cheng did have enough power to help her, but how should she repay him?

Will you pledge yourself to me?
She can't.

She did like him and hoped to have a more future with him, but definitely not in this way.

She wanted to be by his side, not a parasite on him.

Ye Xinxia is Lu Cheng's sister, and she has the right to rely on him.

Ding Yumian has a terrifying talent and doesn't even need Lu Cheng to help her.

But she has been getting more and more scared recently. Seeing everyone's rapid progress, she has become more and more doubtful about whether her so-called talent is real.

She didn't want to be a tool manipulated by the Mu family, nor did she want to be a burden to Lu Cheng.

Maybe he didn't mind this little burden of hers, but she couldn't accept it.

"You take life too seriously." Lu Cheng said.

"You can be more shameless, like me."

"You?" Mu Nujiao was stunned, then laughed.

"Do you want to learn how to be with a rich woman?"

Everyone says that Lu Cheng became powerful by relying on rich women, but where is the rich woman?
She didn't see it, Ye Xinxia didn't see it, and no one saw it.

She only saw Lu Cheng's terrifying talent, a talent that seemed like a joke.

Rich woman is just an excuse.

After all, no one knows how much power a rich woman whose family can't even be found has.

So no one dared to offend him, and even the Mu family's attitude towards this matter was strange.

In the past, the Mu family hoped that she could bring the talented Lu Cheng into the Mu family. Later, the Mu family wanted to use her as a bond to tie Lu Cheng to the Mu family. Up to now, the Mu family has become wary of Lu Cheng.

It's not because of his ability, but because of his untraceable background and the so-called rich woman who he always talks about but has no information at all.

Honorary Councillor of the Magic Palace, Honorary Chief Judge of the Imperial Capital Trial Council, these two identities may just sound impressive in the eyes of others, but the Mu family is well aware that this is an honor that those clans with forbidden spell wizards do not have!

There are two possibilities for the Magic Palace to make such a decision. Either his talent is enough for the Magic Palace to make this level of investment!

Either that or Lu Cheng’s background was beyond their imagination!
No matter which one it is, the Mu family is unwilling to take the risk. After all, if they are not careful, they might get themselves involved.

"I want to, but I can't find the right one." Lu Cheng shrugged.

Before awakening the summoning system and getting in touch with the devil, his plan was to hook up with a rich woman.

Relying on the advantage of the plot, he was able to hook up with all the rich women he could.

But with the devil, many things became simple, and he no longer had to rely on rich women.

"Suitable..." Mu Nujiao smiled and shook her head.

She didn't think that Lu Cheng would really hang out with a rich woman. After all, he knew very well what this behavior would require. Even a family member like her who came from a wealthy family needed to use everything she had as collateral for the loan. Lu Cheng... the rich woman was not a fool. The price to pay for hanging out with a rich woman would only be greater, the interest would only be higher, and it would be more troublesome.

Lu Cheng has always been very direct in doing things, which shows that he hates trouble. How could he possibly cause himself such unnecessary trouble?

"Jiaojiao, human capabilities are limited. What I have learned in my short life is that the more people scheme, the more likely it is that the scheme will fail due to unexpected events." Lu Cheng suddenly said.

"If you want to break this damn cycle, you must become a creature beyond human."

If Mu Ningxue had not run away, his life would be completely different now.

He hadn't expected that to happen, but it had.

The more you think you have everything under control, the more reality will give you a hard time.

"Surpassing humans? Ah Cheng, what are you talking about?" Mu Nujiao didn't quite understand.

There was a dangerous red light flashing in Lu Cheng's eyes, and his body shape changed rapidly. In just a few breaths, he turned into a burly dragon man covered with black scales.

"I am no longer a human being, Jiaojiao."
