Chapter 37: Encountering Danger

  I and Min Xi finally left Huaiyu town smoothly, unexpectedly, he was willing to take himself to the Death Angel Ghost Town.

  He said he was willing to go all out to cooperate with his own actions and help me complete the task of collecting beautiful men as soon as possible. His words made him feel even more unexpected, why would Min Xi be willing to do this? Had his brain been hit by tofu, so it wasn't very bright anymore?

  If it weren't for Min Xi's agility, or else leaving wouldn't be so easy.

  To get there smoothly, I still have to climb two big mountains. This is really too difficult for me who has never walked a long distance before.

  After walking for most of the day, I felt my legs aching badly and was covered in sweat. Fortunately, Min Xi was considerate and told me to find a big rock to sit on and rest for a while.

  "Wait a minute, I'll go take a look if there's any water source!" Min Xi said so and didn't even wait for my response before quickly walking away.

  Looking at him, he doesn't seem tired at all, but instead I've become his burden. Alas... if I were here alone, I probably wouldn't have any good fruit to eat either.

  I sat there, feeling bored, so I opened my throat and sang Zhou Xun's "Floating": "The wind stopped, the clouds knew, love left and my heart naturally cleared up, it came and couldn't escape, it left quietly..."

  "What a strange mountain song." A soft and sweet voice sounded, I think it should be a little girl.

  As expected, I raised my eyes and saw a girl about 1.45 meters tall, with a pink face and golden long hair fluttering in the wind, wearing a pink princess dress and black high-heeled shoes, dressed so Western-style.

  Her blue eyes stared straight at me, I don't know what she was thinking about.

  "Hello," I forced a smile and took the initiative to greet her. Why does she have blonde hair? She should be a foreign girl?!

  "I'm not a little sister!" The girl looked at me with an arrogant face, and then, on those delicate lips, she uttered a string of unspeakable words: "You're just a worthless commoner, a brainless worthless commoner!"

  Regarding the girl's sudden malice, I really find it inexplicable. However, I just treated her as a child who doesn't understand things, but as an adult, I think it's necessary to educate her on some things.

  So, I put on a serious face and said to the girl: "You're obviously younger than me, so what are you if not my sister? And how can you scold your elder sister as a lowly person? No matter how high and noble your status is, you can't look down on people like this!"

  Her face turned iron-green, then she looked at me with infinite arrogance and said: "Well, you dare to offend me, I'll tell my brother, let's see how he deals with you!"

  Uh... what the girl said finally made me understand a bit, it turns out that her spoiled nature was brought up by her family. I think this kind of education method is flawed. But I don't want to say anything refuting now, if she really invites her brother over and he happens to be an unreasonable person, wouldn't I be asking for trouble?!

  Moreover, Min Xi has just left. With my clumsy dart-throwing method, I estimate that for the time being, I still can't deal with people.

  However, I will still try my best to practice diligently and strive to master the use of X-shaped flying darts on the road to becoming a Death Angel.

  The girl looked at me with an unpleasant expression for a while, and just when I thought she was going to scold me again, she walked away silently.

  Alright, it's fine this way, just consider myself a temporary passerby. I didn't take it to heart anyway, feeling the wind blowing on my face as I sit on the big rock, it's really comfortable!

  Suddenly I felt my eyes being covered, and everything in front of me went dark. I thought it was Min Xi, so I couldn't help but scold: "Min Xi, stop messing around, we still have to hurry along the road!"

  "What's the hurry?" a cold male voice sounded, but it wasn't Min Xi's.

  I couldn't help but feel a shock in my heart and secretly pray that he wasn't a bad person.

  "No..." I still felt a bit uneasy in my heart, and the words that came out were noticeably softer. I ventured to say, "Don't cover my eyes, okay?"

  "Don't cover your eyes, where are you covering? Your mouth or your body?" The man's voice was still cold, with an aura of an iceberg that couldn't be shaken off.

  Just from his words, I knew that this man was not a good person. However, he only covered my eyes and didn't grab my hand, so I thought of stretching out my hand to pry open his hands.

  Unfortunately, I didn't get away with it, and felt another pair of hands grabbing onto mine.

  I was shocked and wondered if there were others? Did this man actually have accomplices?

  To verify the idea in my mind, I was about to stretch out my leg and kick forward again. However, this time my action was blocked once more. Moreover, I was grabbed by a pair of large hands that grasped my own, and with one vigorous push, I thought I would be pushed into that person's arms.

  But then the man cunningly let go of me and himself fell heavily to the ground.

  The view restored its brightness, I want to see clearly what the real situation is like? So I couldn't take care of the pain on my body, and stared with wide eyes.

  Those were two handsome men with golden long hair, dressed in attire similar to that of a duke. Moreover, they had identical faces, only their expressions differed; one was icy cold and the other was smiling brightly.

  So, I can boldly guess that the person covering my eyes should be cold and icy, and the one pushing me should be smiling. But, they are both blond, could it be that they have a relationship with the girl from earlier? Ah, I remember now, she said she was going to tell her brother that I bullied her!

  I don't know where Min Xi is dead or alive, at this critical moment, he actually didn't show up!

  "It's him!" The girl reappeared, pointing at me with a face full of accusation.

  "Hua Er, what do you want to do with her?" The smiling man asked, stroking her hair with a pampered expression.

  "Hmm... " Wahl supported his cheek with one hand and rolled his eyes around, thinking seriously.

  I always felt that this guy named Hua Er would definitely have nothing good to say, so I thought of sneaking away while they were chatting.

  So I got up quietly and thought of slipping away unnoticed.

  "Do you want to leave?" The icy-faced man suddenly appeared in front of me, and I couldn't help but feel a little scared.

  It's really inauspicious, it seems I won't be able to escape so easily after all.

  I swallowed a mouthful of fearful saliva and forced a smile: "No, I think it must be your sister's misunderstanding. I hope the great man won't hold me accountable for this small mistake and can let me off the hook."

  The icy-faced man looked at me and then asked Hua Er: "What do you think?"

  "It's just that the castle was missing a female concubine, and she would be perfect. The previous pets were too stupid and not fun at all." Hua Er looked at me with a smile on his face, which made me feel a chill in my heart.

  Pet ghost, what is that thing? The servants in the palace are pet ghosts? Could it be... the thought that flashed through my mind made me feel like I had encountered a mini boss ahead of time.

  Luckily I have Sai Crown's magical powder on me, so I'm not afraid of them killing me. But if they want to frame me, how can I defend myself?
