Loss Of Freedom

The Seven-Tailed Demon Venerable's face turned sullen and he hollered. "Nonsense! He's a human, and you're a demon. Why do you have to protect him?" 

Hu Xian'er thought about it and said seriously, "I just think this person is still somewhat useful, it would be a pity to kill him like this. Uncle, think about it, he is the best elite of the human race, and the old men of the human race think so highly of him. Keeping him alive must be more useful than getting him killed, right?"

The Seven-Tailed Demon Venerable's expression became less austere. 

He was afraid that Hu Xian'er would get up to some nonsense like a human-demon romance and give birth to a half-demon to tarnish the reputation of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan.

After thinking about it carefully, he felt that it would indeed be better to keep Chen Chen alive for now.
