“I heard that the ‘little fortune-teller’ will enter the Xunguan secret place as well. Brother Sun, we need to — Ah, senior Ye Fei!”
The person in front was halfway through with their words when they suddenly bowed to the person behind. Ye Yu processed what happened and hurriedly turned around as well.
As expected, she saw “Ye Fei” in front of her.
Xuan Yi nodded towards the junior brothers and sisters who bowed at him and then his gaze landed on a certain person who pretended to be a stranger.
“Junior Ye Yu, what are you standing there for?”
The moment the words came out of his mouth, Ye Yu and the two people behind her were stunned.
After an extremely quiet few seconds, one of them murmured, “Why do I feel like… that ‘little fortune-teller’s’ name is also this?”
“That’s my impression as well…”
Meanwhile, Ye Yu had already forgotten that they should address one another by their names after her identity was exposed. Right now, she also paused for two seconds.
Then, she turned around at the two people acting like nothing happened and said, “Seniors, next time you guys get your fortune told, I can give you guys a discount.”
“…”
The two whose views were completely changed glanced at Ye Yu’s figure, flabbergasted.
She followed Xuan Yi to the corner of a hall and Ye Yu could still hear guesses coming from all corners about her and Ye Fei.
Their discussion got louder and louder, up until another figure appeared in front of the hall and it got silent again.
Ye Yu instinctively glanced over and met Yun Hua’s almost resentful gaze.
The two gazed at each other before Yun Hua walked towards her.
Ye Yu was speechless.
Everyone looked at them as if looking at a show.
Ye Yu avoided her gaze, a headache raising.
To Xuan Yi, she said, “It’s your issue. Resolve it yourself.”
After saying that, she turned around to leave.
But she only took a step forward when someone grabbed her wrist.
“Aren’t you going to stay with me?”
The male voice was warm and gentle and mixed along with a slight smile.
However, no matter how warm and gentle the voice was, he didn’t bother to lower his voice. Everyone in the grand hall had heard this clearly.
Ye Yu widened her eyes and glanced at Xuan Yi. “…???”
Xuan Yi seemed to have seen through her thoughts and the corner of his lips became much more obvious.
“You promised that you’re going to keep on staying with me. Did you forget?”
Feeling the shocked gazes and gasps coming from everywhere, Ye Yu was speechless.
F*ck.
She was always the one that schemed others. When was it this child’s turn to scheme her time after time?
Ye Yu thought of something and raised her eyebrows.
The moment she placed her thoughts to actions, the robotic voice in her ears finally rang.
“Wait, host. There is a new main mission!”
“…”
Ye Yu didn’t expect for anything good to happen when the main mission was released at this time.
However, the system’s overly excited voice piqued her curiosity.
“Why are you happy?”
The system couldn’t control its excitement and said, “Host, you must complete the mission this time! You’ll get to jump over a huge realm as the mission reward! After that, you can immediately reach the Primal Chaos Realm!”
Ye yu was dumbstruck.
She remembered chatting with the system before. According to the main storyline, if the mission reward was extremely rewarding, then she probably would be encountering the most pitfall mission.
“So what’s the mission?”
The system said, “Have Yun Hua give up on Ye Fei and leave Xunguan secret place and follow the elders back to the Yun Sect.”
“Plus, there is a progress check for the mission now. It originally was at 50% and now it has reached 40%. Whenever it reaches 0%, the mission will be complete.”
Ye Yu was speechless.
She lifted her head to see Yun Hua far in the grand hall stopping at this scene. Then she turned around and met Xuan Yi’s emotional and deep eyes.
It seemed like a ferocious beast would jump out at any time and gobble her.
——
Her mission isn’t to get Yun Hua to give up, but rather for her to die at this point.
The system felt Ye Yu’s struggle and immediately advised, “Host, hold this in for now. By the time you finish this mission, at the very least, you can protect yourself. By the time comes, cooperate with the system to confirm the role. It’s best if you can search for the weakness quickly. There aren’t many in the world who can hurt you!”
Ye Yu clenched her teeth and said, “Right now, your tone is like one of advertising insurance.”
