Chapter 227 Host, he is indeed not your target, but...

"You guys go in, I won't go in." If Long Yin and the others hadn't followed, Teng Xi might have been worried about Ye Li's safety, so he gritted his teeth and went in with Ye Li.

But with Long Yin and the others around, Teng Xi doesn't have to worry about this at all.

After hearing Teng Xi's words, everyone turned their eyes to him with some doubts on their faces.

But even though they were confused, Long Yin and the other two seemed to have a tacit understanding and did not ask any questions.

"Xi." Ye Li reached out and pulled Teng Xi's sleeve. Looking at Teng Xi's slightly pale face, she called out softly.

Teng Xi's dark eyes, as bright as the starry sky, were filled with complexity. He looked at Ye Li affectionately, and after a long while he slowly spoke, "My mother is also a female civet cat."

Hearing this, a hint of clarity flashed across Ye Li's eyes.

She understood that Tengxi's biological mother was most likely a female from the Nine-tailed Civet Cat Kingdom. The reason why Tengxi didn't go in was that he didn't want to meet her in there.

Ye Li didn't intend to force Teng Xi. She nodded gently and said, "Okay, then Xi, you wait for us at the door. I will call you through the teleportation contract when I come out."

After saying that, Ye Li waved to Long Yin and the others, then turned and walked into the cave.

The moment she stepped in, Yi Yi's voice rang out in her mind.

[Issue a hidden task, let Tengxi and his biological mother recognize each other and forgive his biological mother, reward points: 20,000. ]

[Excuse me, host, do you want to accept it? ] Yi Yi's eyes flashed with colorful lights. If Ye Li could accept it and complete it successfully, she could also get at least 2,000 mission rewards.

What a 'vicious' hidden mission. Ye Li paused for a moment. After a long silence, she shook her head and said, "I won't take it."

How should I put it? She knew how much harm Tengxi's biological mother had done to Tengxi and his father.

If Ye Li wants to complete this task and get the task reward, it is inevitable that she will open up Teng Xi's scars and make him recall some bad things.

Moreover, this kind of task could backfire if she is not careful, and the relationship between her and Tengxi would become strained.

For various reasons, she didn't want to take this task.

When Yi Yi heard Ye Li's refusal, a meteor of disappointment flashed across her eyes. For hidden missions, the hosts did have the right to choose to give up.

But thinking about the at least 2,000 points that were slipping away from her, Yi Yi felt a pang of pain in her heart.

[Host, don't be in a hurry to refuse. If you want to complete it in the future, Yiyi will help you accept it first. Even if you fail, you will not lose points. ]

Although the probability that the host can complete this task is very low, but what if it happens, right?

She will act coquettishly with Ye Li later, just in case the host is in a good mood, right...

Although hidden tasks will not deduct points from the hosts, they will deduct points from the system, 100 at a time. Yi Yi gritted her teeth and considered it an investment. It was not a lot, and she could totally afford it now.

…

The cave is intricate, dark and damp, with faint lights flickering in the pitch-black cave. It is hard to imagine that you can reach a country through here.

An Qi knew the route through the cave by heart. Under his leadership, they took almost no detours and saw the white light leading to the outside world.

Ye Li looked back at the dark and deep cave. Could they really make it back successfully by themselves?

"If we cross the path ahead, we will reach the gate of our Nine-Tailed Civet Cat Kingdom."

An Qi's clear and ethereal voice was filled with joy. She turned around and smiled sweetly at Ye Li and the others.

"We in the Nine-tailed Civet Cat Kingdom have a very delicious specialty, the colorful civet fish, which I guarantee you have never eaten anywhere else." An Qi promoted his own specialty with great enthusiasm.

"The seven-colored spirit fish not only has delicious meat, but also can increase a lot of supernatural powers after taking it for the first time. You must come and try it."

Of course, ordinary colorful spirit fish cannot increase supernatural powers. The only ones that can increase supernatural powers are some expensive colorful spirit fish, commonly known as colorful fairy fish.

Ye Li first helped her find Anyue, and then safely sent them back to the Nine-tailed Spirit Cat Kingdom.

It was only right that An Qi should treat Ye Li and the others well.

An Qi's words successfully activated one of the hidden tasks in Yi Yi's plot.

She shouted happily, "Host, go eat with her. If you successfully eat the colorful fish with An Qi, you can get 10,000 points."

At this moment, Yi Yi had never felt that points were so easy to earn.

Meeting An Qi's sincere gaze, Ye Li turned to look at Long Yin and the others, "How about... we go and try it?"

Naturally, Long Yin and the others had no problem with it. The three of them nodded and agreed readily.

As long as Ye Li wanted to eat something, most of them would not refuse, except...

Ye Li was not worried that Teng Xi would be in any danger outside the cave. As long as she wanted, she could teleport Teng Xi to his side immediately.

But I still have to tell Tengxi so that he can be mentally prepared.

Hearing Ye Li and the others' agreement, An Qi felt extremely happy. She raised her right hand and joyfully held Ye Li's arm, and with the other hand she held An Yue's. They strode towards the city gate and smoothly arrived at the core area of the Civet Cat Kingdom.

…

"Uncle (the king of the Nine-tailed Civet Cat Tribe), I found Yueyue!" An Qi called out happily as soon as he opened the door.

However, the first person who caught his eye was not An Qi's uncle, but a handsome male orc with a white cat wearing a green shirt.

His face was like jade, clear and transparent without a trace of impurities, revealing tenacity in his warmth.

The bright seven-colored eyes sparkled with wisdom, and the well-defined facial features seemed to be carefully carved by the Creator.

He stood there, as tall as a pine tree, as gentle as jade. His demeanor was calm, and his every move exuded a natural elegance that was unforgettable.

(To put it simply, he can capture the hearts of thousands of women just by standing there.)

Ye Li secretly called out to Yi Yi in her heart, "Yi Yi, is he the target of the attack? Is there any reward for attacking him?"

【No…no.】

It was a bit of a pity. Ye Li shrugged and smiled helplessly. Since there was no reward, she would not waste her time.

Yi Yi repeatedly confirmed with some disbelief the person in front of her, actually this happened.

After being promoted to S-level, she gained more permissions and could query more things.

It held the blue and white panel and repeatedly checked it with the person in front of it. After finding that it was indeed what it thought, it said to Ye Li in surprise,

[Host, he is indeed not your capture target, but...]

Yi Yi's voice stopped abruptly here. In the next quarter of an hour, Yi Yi seemed to have disappeared out of thin air. No matter how Ye Li asked or called, Yi Yi did not respond.
