After handing over many things, Lord Xia finally managed to find a little free time.
Xia Qingxue dragged her to run a dungeon.
Xia Chuhe didn't want to go.
"Once this dungeon is cleared, your Imperial Advisor will awaken," Xia Qingxue said.
“Go, go, go! Go now!” Xia Chuhe replied.
Xia Chuhe wanted to take Lu Danggui with him.
She now wishes she could tie Lu Danggui to her belt, fearing she might cause trouble if she didn't see her even for a moment, living in constant anxiety.
Xia Qingxue said in a low voice, "No one can be trusted in this matter. We must not allow any trouble to arise."
Come to think of it, it concerns whether Bu Yi can wake up.
The safest approach is to restrict Lu Danggui's movements by locking her up.
Xia Chuhe couldn't do it.
She found Li Yue and Wang Yan and asked them to put aside everything they were doing and keep an eye on Lu Dangui.
She didn't say exactly what foolish things Lu Dangui had done, only that her mind wasn't quite right after she regained consciousness and she needed to be kept under close watch.
Sigh, it's true that Lu Dangui's relationships with others are quite ordinary, and there's really no one she can keep her company.
...
Xia Chuhe, his family of three, and Deng Congrong secretly entered the game instance.
That's right, it's the game that Xia Chuhe once completed. It starts with a key-finding puzzle game, then a nonsensical obstacle course game, and finally a team-based battle royale game.
It wasn't until she entered the instance that Xia Chuhe realized she had truly died once.
She didn't have the power to imprison the gods; she deserved to die.
It was Bu Yi who saved her by defying fate.
Defying fate would greatly deplete Bu Yi's health, but the resurrection armor saved Bu Yi's life.
Bu Yi's prolonged unconsciousness was not solely due to the depletion of his supernatural abilities.
Furthermore, because the Resurrection Armor belongs to the future.
The four of them came to the game instance specifically to bring out the resurrection armor.
Only by obtaining the Resurrection Armor and completing the loop of the intersecting timelines can the Resurrection Armor truly exist, allowing Bu Yi to regain a second life and awaken.
The game instance remains unchanged; it still presents a door, sets some traps, and hides the key.
After learning about Bu Yi's sacrifices, Xia Chuhe remained unusually silent.
She silently searched for the key, passed through the level, and arrived at the team battle game.
Having played Xia Chuhe once before, Xia Chuhe, relying on his experience as a veteran player and his high-level team, easily gained the upper hand and brought out a batch of items.
Unfortunately, there is no resurrection armor among these items.
The four waited outside the dungeon for seven days before finally getting the resurrection armor on their second attempt.
As soon as she got the Resurrection Armor, Xia Qingxue couldn't wait to grab it for herself.
As soon as she got it, the resurrection armor disappeared, replaced by a piece of jerky.
Xia Qingxue stuffed the dried meat into Xia Chuhe's mouth.
"Mom, it's so salty!" Xia Chuhe complained.
"Make do, your dad and I were in the snow and ice world at the time, and this was all we had!"
Xia Chuhe sighed, grinding his teeth with the jerky with effort, and mumbled, "Closed loop?"
Xia Qingxue smiled but did not answer.
Xia Chuhe got the answer from the Taotie City group.
Bu Yi woke up.
Meanwhile, there was also bad news: rumors were circulating in the city, the gist of which was that Lord Xia mistreated workers, the trading market bullied outsiders, and the food and amusement park was a scam, among other unfounded claims.
Xia Chuhe's heart sank, vaguely sensing that these events were inextricably linked to Lu Danggui.
All her actions seemed to point to one purpose—
Damaging the reputation of the Delicacies Pavilion, discouraging workers' enthusiasm, and defaming the credibility of Taotie City all ultimately undermine the stability and reputation of Taotie City.
This will cause Taotie City to lose its advantage and popular support in its silent competition with the old upper echelons.
Xia Chuhe rushed back to Taotie City and sat in the same courtyard as Lu Dangui, locking the door and not coming out.
“Lu, I don’t understand what you’re trying to do, but I feel something’s wrong with you right now. I can’t lock you up, but I can’t let you out either. So, I’ll stay here with you, and stay with you until you’re back to normal.”
If Lu Danggui could be confined in a dignified manner, Xia Chuhe would be willing to do so, even if it meant becoming a cage himself.
Lu Dangui clenched his fist loosely and laughed, "It's such a simple matter, wouldn't it be better to just kill me?"
"You know I won't lay a hand on you."
"You should know that my special ability is creating clones, right? I might even have other clones living outside. Killing me wouldn't affect Taotie City or your position as city lord, wouldn't that be better?"
Xia Chuhe didn't gamble on the existence of the clone; he just kept shaking his head.
Lu Danggui pressed forward relentlessly, while Xia Chuhe retreated step by step until he was backed up against the wall, with nowhere left to go.
Xia Chuhe reached out and touched Lu Dangui's hair.
This time, Lu Dangui did not dodge; she quickly pressed the dagger against Xia Chuhe's neck.
Without hesitation, Lu Dangui plunged the dagger deep into her neck.
“No matter how strong a person is, if they keep backing down, they will only face death,” Lu Dangui said with a smile.
Although killing Xia Chuhe directly went against her plan A, it was quite nice to be the first to taste the sweetness of revenge.
Amidst the gushing blood, another Xia Chuhe appeared beside Xia Chuhe.
Lu Dangui's smile froze on his face: "A clone? How could you do that? You stole my power?!"
No wonder she couldn't use Lu Dangui's abilities even though she had taken over Lu Dangui's body!
It turns out that the famous Lord Xia is actually a shameless scoundrel who secretly steals other people's supernatural abilities!
Unfortunately, the fake Lu Dangui didn't know that the clone ability wasn't stolen, but rather given to him voluntarily by Lu Dangui, and could be used infinitely in the Follower's Manual.
Xia Chuhe asked, her eyes filled with sorrow, "You're not her. Who are you?"
Xia Chuhe changed his mind.
Her weakness is reserved for Lu Dangui, not for unknown wandering ghosts.
However, just as Xia Chuhe was about to catch Lu Danggui, Lu Danggui vanished into thin air.
Black Cat's record of Lu Danggui's whereabouts mentions that she lingered in the trading market for many days and bought many things.
The trading area occasionally sells items.
Xia Chuhe lowered his eyes, looking at the location displayed on the locator on his wristwatch: Huocheng.
Two red dots that were almost overlapping kept flashing.
Soon, the two red dots separated, one remaining in Fire City, and the other slowly moving towards the location of the Heavenly Temple.
Lu Danggui has two tracking devices on her body.
One was the one she stepped on when she entered the yard.
Another one is when Xia Chuhe stroked her hair, and it got caught in her hair.
Both locators are Xiao Ai's latest products and come with special glue. There are only two ways to remove them: cut your hair or rub them with mud.
Lu Danggui had probably just changed her clothes and shoes.
Xia Chuhe switched to a communication software and finally issued an arrest warrant for Lu Dangui, with the location being the Tian Sheng Temple.
