Chapter 329: Blackened Junior Sister (34)
Yue Ran sighed helplessly, and Long Yuan consciously stepped forward to take over all the things in her hands so that she would not be burdened by them. Seeing Lan Jin trotting on his feet and looking at him eagerly, with his fluffy white tail wagging with excitement behind him, Long Yuan coughed discreetly and stealthily grabbed a piece of inconspicuous mung bean cake from the food box and tossed it to Lan Jin.
...
Later, when the four of them had booked a room at the inn, Hai Bing Tu began to complain that she wanted to go look at the real estate. Yue Ran pinched the bridge of her nose and was unable to dissuade her. With no success, she cautioned Hai Bing Tu to be careful since they were still being pursued by nosy individuals from the orthodox sects.
"So we can't buy a house?"
Maybe it was the habit of rabbits that made them believe that only having a home could make them feel at ease. Now Hai Bing Tu was slumped on the table with her head down and asked that question in a slightly depressed tone.
"We can do it in the future," Yue Ran gave a mild response.
Hai Bing Tu felt a little more relieved after hearing this. After she had followed Yue Ran to complete the great cause, who would dare to hunt them down? Then, she will have the freedom to buy a house wherever and whenever she wants!
No one can stop her!
...
The system: "Yue Ran is currently located in the Myriad Pearl City in the Central Plains."
Qing Xi widened her eyes in shock at the results the system had obtained from the female lead locator.
Qing Xi: "How did the female lead run so swiftly to the Central Plains already? The plot has progressed way too rapidly without any prior notice!"
Qing Xi bit her nails in anxiety. In the original plot, Yue Ran should still be on her way to the White Jade Snow Mountain right now! How could Yue Ran have already arrived at the Central Plains so quickly?! This does not make any sense!
The young woman clicked on the map of the system panel, and a holographic map of the world's continent materialized before her very eyes. On it, a small red dot was flickering on and off, indicating the location of the female lead, Yue Ran. The blinking red soon vanished after a short while.
Qing Xi had been very busy attempting to complete her second task, which was to increase the favorability value of both Jiang Wen Xiu and Cheng Mo since she had no news about Yue Ran in the past two days. She is not like Yue Ran or anybody else in the world. As long as she, Qing Xi, continued to steal a lot of things that belonged to the female lead, Yue Ran, she would get the corresponding benefits in return. In addition, as long as these two people—including other men who had entanglements with the female lead in the original plot—had a little more affection for her, her cultivation would rise smoothly even without practice.
Jiang Wen Xiu had almost completely fallen in love with her, but Cheng Mo was the alliance leader of the orthodox faction after all, so it was hard to increase his favorability value. Cheng Mo was not only knowledgeable but also calm. All he had in his heart were justice, righteousness, and the people of the world. It was naturally not that easy to gain his love and affection. It would be easy for him to get annoyed and thus decrease his favorability value of her if she bothered him too many times. But now that there was news about Yue Ran, it meant that there was a good reason to find Cheng Mo and raise his favorability value!
Qing Xi calmed herself down, put away her thoughts, and turned to look for Jiang Wen Xiu.
"Senior Brother Wen Xiu, I have gotten a response from the moon pearl," Qing Xi said. "Senior sister... Yue Ran is now located in the Myriad Pearl City in the Central Plains."
"How did she get to the Central Plains in just a few days?!" Jiang Wen Xiu exclaimed. "Damn it." A scowl decorated his face. "It must be the demonic sword that had caused such trouble." He turned his attention back to the young woman, saying, "Qing Xi, you should go to Grand Martial Temple with me as soon as possible."
"Senior Brother Wen Xiu, I have received a response from the moon pearl," Qing Xi said. "Senior sister... Yue Ran is now located in the Myriad Pearl City in the Central Plains."
"How did she get to the Central Plains in just a few days?!" Jiang Wen Xiu exclaimed. "Damn it." A scowl adorned his face. "It must be the demonic sword that had caused such trouble." He turned his attention back to the young woman, saying, "Qing Xi, you should go to Grand Martial Temple with me as soon as possible."
"Yes, Senior Brother Wen Xiu," Qing Xi answered with a nod, and the two of them got up and rushed to the Grand Martial Temple.
The leader of the Sky Breeze Sect has not recovered from his injuries and has been bedridden for the past few days. Now, the majority of the matters in the sect were handed over to Jiang Wen Xiu to take care of.
When the two rushed to the Grand Martial Temple, Cheng Mo happened to be discussing the issue—in regards to Yue Ran and Long Yuan—with various orthodox sect leaders. When they learned that the evil witch and the Sword of the Demon had fled to the Central Plains, a number of sect leaders expressed their horror and rage, and their words also revealed their ridicule and gloating at the misfortune the Sky Breeze Sect had stumbled upon.
Jiang Wen Xiu was still young and inexperienced.
