Chapter 483
Even though she wasn’t really choked, the strange look on her face couldn’t fool Kian, who had been watching her just now.
Kian stopped sharply and keenly and lowered his eyes to look at Nyx.
There was no expression on her chubby face, but he clearly felt that she was very shocked and stunned, as if she had turned into a statue.
He wanted to know what had made her like this.
Kian scanned the table and found that there was nothing wrong with the dishes. The coffee wasn’t hot either. Kian grabbed it and confirmed it was just the right temperature.
Then, Nyx’s strangeness must be because of the conversation about Jaws.
He didn’t expect that his enemy’s background was even greater than he had previously imagined.
“Don’t be afraid, Nykie,” Kian pondered and said softly to soothe her, “I won’t rush to take revenge until I’m strong enough.”
Nyx was like his collar and leash. Even though there were all kinds of impulses and restlessness to kill in his heart, he couldn’t really risk his life recklessly.
Nyx was stroked from head to tail by his hand a few times and finally came to her senses with a start. “Maybe there be some misunderstanding? Is it really only Jaws who can use that Demonic Pattern?”
After thinking about it over and over again, she felt that Heavenly Law wouldn’t give her such a difficult problem. The one who could do such a heinous thing as wiping out an entire family shouldn’t be her partner either.
Even when he was a Space Pirate, Jaws had never killed any innocent people.
Greg frowned and said, “Natural Demons are cruel by nature and can do such despicable things. Jaws is a supreme venerable among the Demons, and no one should dare to provoke him and use his Demonic Pattern fraudulently.”
He continued, “In fact, a very low–level Demonic cultivator can’t even get close to him and has no way of knowing his Demonic Pattern.”
But seeing Nyx’s very dissatisfied look, he subconsciously didn’t speak too definitely. He changed the subject and added, “But Demonic cultivators are all crazy, so it’s hard to say…”
Some bold and crazy guy might really dare to wear Jaws‘ Demonic Pattern.
“Moreover, since Merlin of the Celestial injured Jaws a hundred years ago, no one has heard any news about him. Presumably, he is living in seclusion to recover from his injuries.”
Thinking of this, Greg subconsciously followed Nyx’s train of thought and suddenly felt that her suspicion made a lot of
sense.
With the powerful Jaws gone, it was reasonable for some bold and weak people to jump out and show off.
“What?” Nyx gasped and asked, “He was injured? Was it very serious?”
She found that all her partners were so pitiful, either having their spiritual roots destroyed or being injured.
Greg found it strange that her focus of attention was actually here. He opened his mouth but couldn’t say exactly what was strange. He just shook his head and replied, “…He shouldn’t be too seriously injured.”
Natural Demons were robust, and Jaws was the most powerful among them.

Chapter 483
In the past, Greg had fought against him and knew how difficult that guy was to deal with.
Even though he was also an Upright cultivator, Greg had to judge fairly that Merlin was definitely no match for Jaws.
He had actually been slightly involved in that incident.
It was said that Jaws suddenly went crazy and attacked the Celestial alone. The Celestial fought back in a hurry,
69%
When Greg and the elders of the Sword Guild came to help, the battle was already over. They were too late and didn’t see Jaws at all.
Although the Celestial later gave a unified statement, claiming that Jaws was defeated by Merlin and fled in a hurry after being injured, Greg could guess that Jaws broke into the Celestial alone, and no one could defeat him. He just beat up Merlin and left.
Merlin was probably seriously injured. Since then, he had been living in seclusion on and off, and no one knew how well his injuries had recovered. And there was no news of Jaws either.
All the major Sects were on high alert, but they never waited for him to show up again and cause trouble.
However, Greg didn’t expect that after so many years, he would hear news about him again from a young cultivator with little cultivation experience.
Greg fell into thought and thought, ‘What was Jaws‘ purpose in committing the massacre of an entire family in the mortal world? Was it to provoke the Upright cultivators, or just to kill people out of boredom?‘
The every move of such a powerful person as Jaws was worth pondering deeply.
Since they had received the news, all the major sects must be on guard in advance, figure out what Jaws was planning, and be ready to stop him in time.
The air was very quiet for a moment. Nyx gradually calmed down and was certain that this matter wasn’t done by Jaws. Someone must have framed him.
‘She walked around the table a few times in a bit of annoyance, and her two small ears drooped down.
She thought, ‘It’s bad enough that Jaws was framed. How could he still be injured? He’s not the kind of person who would sit there and recover from his injuries.
Just thinking of his self–abusive way of injecting himself with medicine in the past, and how he was so ruthless that he even dared to peel off his own skin, Nyx was so worried that several of her rabbit hairs fell out.
Kian lowered his eyes and stared at her. Suddenly, he reached out, caught her, held her up with both hands, leaned down, and pressed his face close, and his nose almost sank into her soft fur.
“Nykie,” his voice was deep as if suppressing something, and he asked in an inquiring tone, “Are you worried about him?”
Nyx was so familiar with his jealous feeling that she instinctively wanted to soothe him. Just before opening her mouth, she suddenly realized something was wrong and quickly pretended to be ignorant. “Who?”
She pretended not to know Jaws to show that she wasn’t worried about anything at all.
Kian still stared at her, his eyes were like a deep pool, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.
