Chapter 19
03 Squatting on Feng Jue’s arm, watching the palace maid paint her nails.
The process is not complete until each fingernail is covered with bright red and painted with delicate patterns with gold powder.
After finishing her manicure, Feng Jue raised her hand to admire. Siyi also returned with a full load and she brought Xue Mengtao with her.
When he saw Siyi's graceful pink figure, 03 subconsciously floated into Feng Jue's arms. After being glanced at by Feng Jue with indifferent eyes, he slowly floated out.
By the way...the host said that Siyi looks like this because of her?
03 Confused, because of the host, what did the host do?
It has never paid attention to the host's past unless it is related to the mission. Moreover, the identity information of each host in previous missions and the mental journey of each choice are reflected in the plot. It only needs to complete the mission according to the objectives.
03This is the first time I’m curious about a human being.
Because there really is no information other than what is described about the host.
03 I opened the task panel for the nth time, looked at the host's few lines of description, and a mystery arose in the constantly circulating data: it turns out that human life cannot be summarized in a few lines of words.
The small system, lost in thought, floated in front of Feng Jue and asked seriously, "Feng Jue, did you persecute Si Yi when you were a child?"
Is that why she grew up to be such a horrible adult?
Feng Jue's eyelids twitched. He took out a random storybook from the storage ring Siyi handed him and spread it out on the table. He sent a voice message to 03, "Go and take a look."
03 He slowly floated over the storybook and squatted, scanning and entering the page number in 0.0001 seconds.
"Okay," it said.
Feng Jue turned another page.
"alright."
Another page.
"alright."
“…”
Feng Jue put down his hand in frustration.
Who serves whom?
03Look back innocently.
Not sweeping anymore?
Now it's just the moment when the protagonist meets an immortal and is taught the technique. The storyline here is very similar to the description of the quest world it experienced, so 03 thinks it can be used as a reference.
What humans say about reading thousands of books also applies to systems.
Feng Jue closed his eyes and leaned back on the couch.
Siyi asked all the palace servants except Xue Mengtao to leave, and sat at the small table to make tea. As the aroma of tea wafted into the air, she said, "Master Bai and the Lianshan Sect elder surnamed Li are birds of a feather. They are extremely hypocritical and speak nonsense. Palace Master, please do not trust him."
"Yeah." Feng Jue nodded and said, "
At least he didn't have the guts to lie to me about the secret realm of Chongshan."
At this point, Feng Jue thought of the terrified look on Bai's face when she punished the old man from Bai Shuimen, and she couldn't help laughing.
"At the Jindan stage, the head of a sect is nothing more than this." Feng Jue said disdainfully.
Siyi continued to ask, "I ordered people to search for the jade tokens in the hands of other cultivators. Excluding the three of us, how do the remaining five peak masters of Lanyang Palace plan to divide up the 29 jade tokens of Baishui Sect?"
Feng Jue raised his eyes, his gaze fell on the silver-white system, but his thoughts were far away.
"The Chongshan Secret Realm is opening for the first time after its upgrade. This journey is extremely dangerous. As for the reward—" She narrowed her eyes, "I can't keep the agreement between me and the Baishui Sect secret. In that case, let's just let each peak fight for it. Anyone below the Jindan stage can enter. As long as they are not afraid of death, they can invite whoever they want to come."
Feng Jue's tone was impolite.
Siyi smiled and placed a cup of tea on Feng Jue's table. She whispered, "Fortunately, Peak Master Yan is in seclusion. Without her, the people at Renyang Peak are much safer. The Palace Master's broken engagement with the Lianshan Sect caused a lot of rumors to spread in the palace. I dealt with a bunch of them, and they dislike me even more."
"Hurry up and form your elixir, and shut those people up first," Feng Jue said. Siyi was incredibly talented, and forming her elixir before fifty was a no-brainer. However, she hadn't yet formed her elixir, and since she was managing all the affairs of Lanyang Palace, many of those who relied on their early entry into the palace were jealous.
Siyi nodded.
"If it weren't for the Palace Master's advancement to the Great Perfection of the Golden Core, which put pressure on Master Yan Feng, she wouldn't have obediently retreated to practice. I will retreat to strive for the Golden Core after returning from the Chongshan Secret Realm. However..." Siyi smiled and said, "If the Palace Master can achieve the Infant stage soon, I think it will be more intimidating to others than my Dan stage."
"Do you think the Nascent Soul stage is the one sold on the street?" Feng Jue said unhappily. She had just formed a pill not long ago, where could she go to form a Nascent Soul?
What she said was as unreasonable as 03 asking her to find someone to get married and have children right away!
Siyi stopped talking, a smile on her face, and listened attentively to the sound of reading.
The storyteller was telling the story of how the old Palace Master of Lanyang Palace fought against the leader of Jiutian Sect. When he got to the dangerous part, a tense atmosphere spread to the second floor.
Seeing that they had finished their conversation, 03 floated over and asked, "03 didn't understand. Who is Master Yan Feng? Who do you want to form an infant to shock?"
What happened to the host must be related to the plot, and 03 has the responsibility and obligation to find out.
You want to know again?
He clearly couldn't produce anything, but he still made her angry all day long.
Feng Jue ignored it.
03Take out the drawing board and start painting "Beauty Emerging from the Bath".
"Hiss..." Feng Jue took a breath.
His palm subconsciously slapped the panel of 03, and his palm passed through the virtual light ball and landed on the table.
Bang!
A few drops of tea spilled out from the table.
Siyi ate some melon seeds, didn't turn around, and chuckled, "Although what the teacher said was a bit fantastical, it wouldn't make you so angry."
Phoenix Technique: "..."
Xue Mengtao, who had been hiding in the corner since they started talking about the secret realm, didn't dare to breathe. When she heard Siyi teasing her like that, Feng Jue held her breath even more. She still didn't understand why Feng Jue and Siyi ignored all the palace maids in Lanyang Palace and insisted on calling her over to tell her in front of them these things that seemed like she shouldn't know.
And take her to the secret realm of Chongshan...
The Palace Master said that the Chongshan Secret Realm, after its upgrade, was extremely dangerous, with the upper limit being Jindan-stage cultivators. She was only a Qi Refining cultivator, unable to even fly with a sword, so why did they take her there? It couldn't really be related to Young Master Xue as Elder Si said... Young Master Xue's spiritual roots were clearly damaged, and he was no longer a member of this realm.
Xue Mengtao's heart was in a mess, and she even suspected that they said these things in front of her because they were sure that she would die in the secret realm of Chongshan, so they had no scruples.
"You." Feng Jue raised his eyes and looked over.
Xue Mengtao woke up in shock and quickly responded.
In a dimension she couldn't see, 03 was suspended between her and Feng Jue, holding a small panel, his dark eyes widening innocently.
"The people from the Baishui Sect live in Lanyang City. Until the secret realm opens, you go and keep a close eye on them. The jade token to enter the Chongshan Secret Realm is still in Bai..." Feng Jue paused, then said, "Bai Shanfeng's hands. If you find him in contact with people from other sects, come back and tell me immediately."
Xue Mengtao looked uneasy and whispered, "Yes."
03 Question: "Is this a new mission?"
"But I can't leave you within a hundred meters."
Feng Jue said, "I will be in the city these days."
"Okay." 03 nodded.
We really spared no effort to make it the host of the task.
Xue Mengtao said anxiously, "Palace Master, if I go to monitor Baishuimen, what about Lady Lingshi..."
Feng Jue looked at 03 and said, "Those who are capable should do more work."
Virtual beads of sweat appeared on the head of the small silver-white system, indicating that it would complete the task seriously.
After the silver-white system and Xue Mengtao left one after another, Siyi raised her eyebrows and looked over leisurely.
"The people from Baishuimen have seen Xue Mengtao. Did you send her to monitor them?"
Feng Jue frowned: "Who?"
Siyi: "The capable one."
As soon as he finished speaking, the silver-white system that had just flown away came back with a "whoosh", opened the character information, and unfolded the character portrait for Feng Jue to see.
"Dear host, the leader of Baishuimen is called Bai Fenghui, not Bai Shanfeng."
As Feng Jue's face darkened, 03 immediately said, "Reminder complete, I'm leaving!"
The silver-white system held up the small panel, passed through the wall in a flash, and disappeared from Feng Jue's sight.
