Chapter 165

After getting his answer, Si YuFan firmly deleted him. He turned to inform XunMi of the date and waited for her to nod in agreement.

XunMi didn’t have any opinions. She had nothing else to do anyways. Now she could plan to go find that Qingfeng monk leader. Little Nine’s spiritual energy bead was still very much needed. After kicking him out, XunMi went to study. She still hadn’t figured out what her mission was. She was starting to get stressed.

“BaoBao, the mission said for to return to reality and to counterattack the scum man. Does that mean that this original body exists in the real world? But it somehow got sucked into the game world and became a NPC?” XunMi returned to her own room and called out to BaoBao. There too many questions that needed answers. She needed to know more to plan her next steps.

A white furry ball quickly appeared on XunMi’s shoulders and rubbed against her neck. [Madam Host, BaoBao can’t tell you too much. But the answers could be prompted at key points. In the original story, the male lead became a king of the Gods. Also Madam Host, the day you become the king of the demons is also the day you will be able to break free from certain chains and leave here. This place is just controlled by data after all. As long as you break free from the data numbers, you’ll be able to crosee through to the spiritual and real world. Madam Host, nonono. BaoBao will first leave. I already feel the data fluctuations starting.] BaoBao quickly dropped a few useful objects for XunMi and disappeared. He had felt that there was something that was trying to track him. Fortunately, it wasn’t as fast him. Although he was a more advanced intelligence product and didn’t need to be afraid of these middle-levelled intelligence world’s products, it still wouldn’t be good if he was discovered.

XunMi plopped on her bed digesting BaoBao’s words. She felt like things weren’t supposed to be this complicated. Since she had a body in the real world and her mission included counterattacking the scum man, then could she be presumptuous in guessing that she became like this due to the scum man? As for why the scum man would do this, that would need to wait until she returned  to the real world and investigated matters herself. After going over every portion of her clues, XunMi decided to take it one step at a time. The female lead, the second male lead, the cannonfodders and all. She planned to temporarily stay out of their business. She needed to first trigger her hidden demon bloodline. Right now, she was already the largest figure within the spirit clans. She should have been able to successfully unlock the hidden mission. After she visited the QingYang sect, she wanted to go the demon clan’s headquarters to see if she could find any useful information. Deep in thought, XunMi didn’t notice that her body began emitting dark energy.  It was similar to the demon energy she had encountered in the XuanHuan world except that it was even more solidified here.

“Si Handsome, don’t you have anything to do?” XunMi tilted her head up. Her husband had truly become clingy in this world. Wherever she went, he followed.

Si YuFan thought for a second before shaking his head. “I’m not busy. They don’t even call on me when they go out as a group to fight beasts.” Therefore, he planned on following her no matter what. Wherever she went, he went.

“Who would be so blind as to not call you over to fight together?” XunMi wasn’t happy. She could bully her husband, yes. But no one else better even think about it.

“It’s the childhood friends we’re meeting Saturday. They are so bad, they left me out.” Si YuFan was the definition of ‘give a ladder and he’ll go straight up’. He had no guilt in incriminating others.

“Let’s not team up with them in the future. Humph, let’s go. I’ll take you to go fight beasts.” XunMi lifted her head in indignation. How could those people leave her husband out here all alone? This won’t do. She’ll just have to bring her husband along with her to make sure he wouldn’t get bullied elsewhere.

XunMi completely forgot that she herself had been trying to throw him away earlier. _(:3ゝ∠)_

Si YuFan’s group of childhood friends had been completely blamed unknowingly.

“XunMi’s the best! When are you taking me to JueXian Pavilion?” Si YuFan happily let out a light smile. It was obvious that he didn’t smile often. His lips were a bit stiff. But his eyes showed all of his hidden emotions.

Black lines immediately formed on XunMi’s forehead. She had just been pitying him but now this fellow has made it hard on himself. “Don’t you already know that I’m the owner of JueXian Pavilion? Are you preparing to fight me for the mission?” She narrowed her eyes dangerously, as if she was going to swipe him if he dared to nod his head.

Si YuFan blinked. “You are the Flower Spirit Queen. But what does it have to do with me fighting JueXian Pavilion storybook?” He didn’t understand. If he didn’t go to JueXian Pavilion as a representative, there would definitely be other people. What if XunMi’s identity is discovered by others? He wouldn’t allow XunMi to be put in danger. Therefore, he needed to protect her carefully. He would only let people know that he, a big master, couldn’t even fight JueXian Pavilion. That way, it would make others think twice about coming.

XunMi couldn’t see Si YuFan’s brain’s logical process at work. She only felt that there was smoke rising from her own head. She squeezed her hands into fists. Don’t hold her back, she wanted to punch someone.

Right before XunMi erupted, Si YuFan spoke again, making her anger pop like a balloon. “That way, those people won’t come trying to fight JueXian Pavilion. That way, no one else will discover your identity.”

XunMi froze. So that was her husband’s reasoning. Water began collecting in her eyes. She turned her head away. How long has it been since she last cried? She had almost forgotten what tears were.

“Dummy.” Her voice was a bit clenched, her tone was a bit low. But her curved lips revealed her true emotions.

Si YuFan rubbed his head. Was he dumb?

“Big master Si Handsome, big master XunMi. What a coincidence. We meet again!” Big Wintermelon and Slightly Cold Night walked out from behind an area of grassland. The happiness in their faces couldn’t be contained.

“What are you doing here?” Si YuFan asked coldly, his eyes filled with killing intent. If these two overheard anything they shouldn’t have, they couldn’t be let go.

Big winter melon completely didn’t perceive Si YuFan’s murderous glance. Hearing his idol ask a question, he hurried to answer. “Slight Cold Night and I were about to go to QingYang sect to complete a mission. We saw you guys as we exited that little path. We were too excited so we rushed over without thinking. We didn’t cause the two of you any trouble, right?” He tugged his ear and smiled awkwardly, a bit embarrassed.

XunMi knew that he was speaking the truth. She knew that there weren’t anyone around them earlier. Her surroundings detector had been accurate on every occasion except with her husband. XunMi thought perhaps it was because she was too familiar with her lover’s aura and soul that she never had her guards up with him. Because of this, he was able to appear by her side repeatedly without her noticing.
