Turns Out I Really Am The Protagonist

The world is filled with myriad sects, horrific demons, and rising heroes, but each only reigns for a few hundred years. This world had no protagonist; it was merely a cycle of one power replacing ...

Chapter Ten: The Wise Choice

Leng Rushuang glanced coldly at Li Sisui, who was wrapped up tightly, and said nothing. With a flick of her wrist, Li Sisui was thrown out and staggered to the ground. Only after observing Leng Rushuang up close did he realize that she was indeed a beauty that could topple cities. Even through the red veil, he was already captivated. If he were to see her real face, what would he do?

Perhaps sensing Li Sisui's unbridled gaze, Leng Rushuang suddenly turned around, her eyes flashing like lightning as she glared directly at Li Sisui. The latter, startled, chuckled awkwardly.

"Young lady, I have done you a favor, and while I wouldn't say I'll repay a favor tenfold, I should at least be grateful. As for your desire to repay me with your body, I'll have to think about that. There's no need to be so cold, even though your surname is Leng..."

"Glossy hair, powdered face, sweet talk, appearance reflects the heart! Humph!"

Leng Rushuang remained expressionless and replied with a few idioms. Li Sisui was both amused and exasperated. He had just experienced a heavenly tribulation that came and went in a hurry, and his body was covered in cold sweat and warm currents. Naturally, he was a bit greasy now, but there was no need to indirectly insult someone's appearance.

Li Sisui wasn't even familiar with his own body, so naturally he had no idea what he looked like. However, based on his understanding of this world, the world of cultivation was definitely where strength was paramount. It certainly wouldn't be like the world before, where everyone was obsessed with looks, and the idea that good looks equal justice was utter nonsense!

Leng Rushuang looked around, surveying the swirling clouds in the sky. A solemn expression crossed her face. The red veil around her neck drooped with her movements, revealing a section of her slender neck. Li Sisui stared at her, his gaze fixed on her, and murmured:

"Good...white!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt the temperature around him drop noticeably. Before Li Sisui could even look up, he noticed Leng Rushuang's sharp gaze fixed on him. He broke out in a cold sweat instantly, feeling like he was being pricked by needles!

He didn't know how much time had passed, but when he could feel Leng Rushuang's footsteps gradually fading away, Li Sisui finally dared to raise his head, let out a long breath, and watched the receding figure before him. A relieved smile appeared on his face. He had a problem: whenever he was nervous, he would become talkative, and then he would easily say the wrong thing, and then he would easily offend people, and then he would become even more nervous, thus falling into a vicious cycle...

To avoid getting stuck in a vicious cycle, Li Sisui forces himself to shut up and stay away from people. This makes his colleagues and friends think that he might have a personality flaw, be withdrawn, or have social anxiety. However, Li Sisui knows in his heart why he does all this.

Compared to the fickle and unpredictable nature of interpersonal relationships, computer code seems much more honest and approachable. Zero is zero, and one is one; there are not so many twists and turns. In communicating with the cold machine, he gained a moment of freedom to breathe, which made him feel no regret about becoming a wage earner. The endless life of a corporate slave is his blessing.

Li Sisui is an adult, and not only that, he is also a mentally mature adult. Suddenly arriving in a strange world that overturns one's values, no one could face it calmly and accept it with ease. Whether it was falling off a cliff or being eloquent in front of Leng Rushuang, these were all signs of his nervousness.

At this moment, after experiencing the ups and downs of life, he not only didn't die, but swaggered out of there (dragged out). After confirming his protagonist aura, Li Sisui was relieved. Although beautiful women are pleasing to the eye, one will still get tired of looking at them after a while.

Moreover, in Li Sisui's previous life, women meant trouble, and staying away from women meant staying away from trouble. Perhaps this is why he has been a backup option for so many years.

Regardless of anything else, having managed to walk out of the Tianmen Sect alive, Li Sisui finally felt more confident. Although this world was still unfamiliar, he could now lie down comfortably. Moreover, he was not blinded by lust for Leng Rushuang; on the contrary, he was perfectly clear-headed at this moment.

From the conversation between Leng Rushuang and the Daoist Wufa, he learned a lot of information. Leng Rushuang was willing to leave with him, but she was only using him as a tool. Although the protagonist's halo really existed, it wasn't like the mindless fawning in novels. Li Sisui's sudden idea was thus shattered...

Having grasped some of the ways to utilize the protagonist's halo, he knew he had to be more careful from now on. With the protagonist's halo and his lucky physique, he was absolutely confident that he could secure a place in this world full of powerful figures. However, his immediate priority was to return to the original place of this body: Wulipo, Luoyun Sect.

Li Sisui trailed far behind Leng Rushuang, the two walking one after the other for a long time. Suddenly, Leng Rushuang stopped, and Li Sisui's faint voice came from behind her:

"Young lady, where are you planning to go?"

"It's not decided yet."

"Young lady, do you know how to get to Luoyun Sect at Wulipo?"

Leng Rushuang then turned her head and looked Li Sisui up and down, saying:

"You don't even know how to get back?"

Li Sisui gave a helpless bitter smile, not wanting to explain further. In his view, the two would soon go their separate ways, so why say more? However, seeing Leng Rushuang's hesitant expression, Li Sisui smiled knowingly and said:

"My cultivation is shallow and my techniques are unfamiliar. I wonder if you could help me return to my sect? If you don't mind, you can also rest at my sect for a while..."

Leng Rushuang's eyes lit up. Today's incident not only offended the Tianmen Sect, but also severed ties with her own sect, making it difficult to turn back.

Now, Mount Fugu is naturally uninhabitable, and even with the sect's power, there's hardly a place for her to stay at Saint Hill. She can only condescend to Wulipo to temporarily avoid the limelight. However, given her proud personality, she simply cannot bring herself to say this. Fortunately, Li Sisui took the initiative to speak, and Leng Rushuang reluctantly agreed:

"I really don't know how you got here! Oh well, consider it repaying a favor, from now on we're even!"

Li Si nodded in agreement, smiling without saying a word.

Seeing this, Leng Rushuang couldn't help but take a few more glances. How come this person was completely different from the glib-tongued person just now? However, she didn't think too much about it. The thought of having a place to stay made Leng Rushuang smile. Instantly, all the flowers paled in comparison. Li Sisui, who was standing next to her, was also stunned for a moment, but quickly recovered.

It is said that going up a mountain is easy but going down is difficult, but the world is quite different. Going up a mountain is not easy, but going down a mountain is really difficult. Without someone from the mountain to accompany you, you can't even find the mountain's entrance formation. No matter how powerful your cultivation is, it will be of no use. Moreover, after going down the mountain, because the spiritual energy is thin at the foot of the mountain, your cultivation will stagnate. Only a few people can make up their minds to go down the mountain!

This is also the fundamental reason why Leng Rushuang readily agreed to Li Sisui's request. Although she is exceptionally talented, it is impossible for her to cross Fugu Mountain and reach a higher level in a short period of time. Moreover, she cannot return to her own sect, and Saint Hill has also become a forbidden place for her. With these restrictions, only Wulipo remains as an option!

Compared to the stagnation of her cultivation, she was more afraid of being relentlessly pursued, running around in circles, or even losing her life. Weighing these factors, returning to Wulipo with Li Sisui was undoubtedly a wise choice!
