Chapter 118, almost there! We're finally fast-forwarding to the end!
Ten minutes later, Feng Yinsha and the other three gathered together and suddenly appeared in the place where they had disappeared, looking somewhat disheveled.
When the four of them saw Yan Xi lying leisurely on the soft couch, and Yin Yuan fanning Yan Xi with a pained expression, they were at a loss for what to think.
Now, whenever they see Yan Xi, they are reminded of how, just ten minutes ago, this person unilaterally beat up Yin Yuan outside the Copper House, then grabbed him by the back of the neck, blew a kiss to the others, and then walked step by step through the air, reaching the other side and disappearing from their sight.
"This is a learning experience for you to improve yourselves, so I won't help you out. I'll be waiting for you outside. Good luck!"
Her soft, yet seemingly hooked voice still lingered in their ears.
Wenxi rubbed her fingers together. Although what she said made no problem, it just sounded so unsettling.
I always feel like this person is pretentious, but I can't do anything about it.
Tsk.
She's a pretty girl, but she has a mouth.
……
After everyone emerged from the trial, the phantom reappeared. Wenxi and the other three gathered before the golden gate, answered the questions, and after a brief interlude, the gate opened.
Yan Xi waved her hand and removed the soft couch. With her hands behind her back, she followed them in, swaying slightly.
……
Yan Xi couldn't quite remember what happened after that, only that Jin Litong went berserk after regaining his memories and she slapped him down.
Yan Xi vividly remembers Jin Litong's shocked, confused, relieved, and excited expression, and his words, "You're not dead."
She's dead? How come she didn't know?
Lying beneath the camellia tree, red petals fluttered down. Yan Xi stared at the treetop, and suddenly understood something.
The world's consciousness needs to follow the plot... So, when he fought Huo Liaoye back then, the illusion Huo Jingmou created was her?!
Go to hell!
Yan Xi suddenly sat up and gave the sky the middle finger.
Suddenly, Yan Xi heard a notification sound: [Ding—Task progress updated.]
[Character's level of corruption: 85%]
Yan Xi: ?
Yan Xi looked at the mission progress with a blank expression, and counted on her fingers to see what she had done. After counting, it seemed that apart from breaking one seal on Jin Litong, she hadn't done anything else!
What on earth are those people imagining?!
Just as she was feeling lost, Yin Yuan's voice rang in her ears.
Congratulations! You're only 10% away from completing the task.
Yan Xi: ...
[What did I do?]
How would I know?
Yan Xi: ...
[Hey, how's it going on your end?]
In the human world, Yin Yuan reverted to his idiot form, lazily nestled on the windowsill, watching "Yan Xi" interact with the others.
Jin Litong, now transformed into a doll, stood on the table, refusing to leave. Chen Sisi and the others surrounded "Yan Xi," disliking each other.
At the front of the classroom, Wang Mo sat in his seat, surrounded by several strangers. He had a smile on his face, but he would occasionally turn around and glance in their direction.
In just a short while, two more unfamiliar girls walked in and approached Wang Mo.
The mechanical blue light emanating from those people was particularly eye-catching.
Yin Yuan slightly raised his finger, and a line of blood appeared on Yan Xi's cheek, causing a gasp of surprise. Her blackening value increased by another 0.3 percentage points.
Seeing this harmonious scene, Yin Yuan smiled and said, "The bait smells pretty good; the fish have all come."
Yan Xi lay back down, gazing leisurely at the sky, and picked a camellia flower. "Who do you think I should go find first?"
Who are you still waiting to contact?
[Let me think... In the fairyland... Shi Xi and Jing Jing have both searched, and A Ling's personality can't be corrupted, Mandora has already turned evil... Yan Jue, Huo Liao Ye...]
[Shui Qingli went looking for me once, but she probably doesn't know about my "rumors" yet... I haven't seen Pang Zun, Du Xifei, or Li Hui yet... and... I guess that's all...]
Yinyuan counted on his fingers, then shook his head. "That's not right, there should still be two short."
[Uh...right! It's Meng Yi and Xiao Qing!]
Yan Xi slapped her forehead, and the camellia in her hand fell, landing right between her eyebrows.
She hesitated for a moment, then picked it up again, controlling it with her magical power as it moved through the air. Casually, she asked, "[Who do you think I should go find first?]"
Yin Yuan pulled out an electronic screen and typed on the keyboard, replying just as casually, "Whatever, I'll just pick whichever is easier."
By the way, Xinling is currently in a state of disbelief and existential crisis. I can't handle it; you'll have to deal with it yourself.
Yan Xi pouted, looking displeased, but could only agree, "[Fine, fine, fine, fine, I'll invite her to my camellia grove in a couple of days...]"
[Wait a minute, this girl is sealed away, can she return to the fairy realm?]
"Should...?" Yin Yuan was also a little unsure, his fingers pausing on the keyboard. "Why do you care if she seals it or not? Now that you're back in your original body, you can just remove the curse and the seal, right?"
[hiss--]
Yan Xi gasped, looking enlightened, and exclaimed, "[Great idea! Why didn't I think of that?]"
You're stupid.
[grass!]
Yin Yuan, having successfully sold the sword, smiled and looked at the message popping up on the electronic screen. He coughed softly, "[Ahem, let's get down to business. That dead rabbit asked what dungeon you like and when you'll use it. She said she needs to prepare in advance.]"
Yan Xi rubbed the ring on her little finger and then fell silent.
Yinyuan didn't urge him, and chatted happily with the person whose contact name was "Dead Rabbit" while selling swords. He was laughing very happily.
A little while later, just as the "dead rabbit" was about to explode and block Yin Yuan, Yan Xi uttered a few adjectives.
[Hmm... In my dream, it has to be beautiful, a sky city filled with flowers... and it also has to fulfill my dream of being a queen.]
Yin Yuan typed Yan Xi's words into the chat box with lightning speed, sent it, and then asked, "[And then? Are there any requirements regarding the difficulty level and mortality rate?]"
[Start with the easy ones, then move on to the difficult ones.] Yan Xi stroked her pinky ring, a red glint flashing in her eyes, her expression becoming much more sinister.
[A seven-day time limit, but the person won't survive more than three days.]
[Make the first day easy to lower the sheep's guard, then make the second day a near-death experience to give them hope, and finally...]
Yan Xi drawled, as if she could already foresee the scene. A dark red tinge crept into her pupils, her eyes filled with suppressed excitement and bloodlust. "[Finally, herd the sheep into the pen, and on the morning of the third day, send them to paradise.]"
After typing the last word and sending the message, Yin Yuan took out a golden bell from the broken door and flicked it twice with his finger.
The bell swayed gently, producing a melodious and ethereal sound.
Yan Xi's body stiffened for a moment, then the red light in her eyes faded, and her eyes regained their clarity.
She stroked the pinky ring, sighed, and said, "[Oh dear, I got too excited and couldn't hold back, it just came out.]"
[Is there anything else?]
Yin Yuan pinched the bridge of his nose, speechless. [Time.]
Yan Xi counted carefully on her fingers, then suddenly asked, "[What's the date today?]"
Which calendar?
[Perpetual Calendar.]
Yin Yuan pulled up the calendar, stared at the date for a moment, and then suddenly understood something.
There are 53 days left until November 23rd.
[Let's do it that day.]
Yan Xi put her hands behind her head and slowly closed her eyes.
Her voice was no longer frivolous or teasing; it was deep and seemed to carry a sense of relief.
[For my last birthday, let's go all out.]
