Chapter 171 What should we do?
He glanced at A Yao's place with some curiosity a few more times, then slowly followed her inside.
He definitely needs an explanation.
How did it escalate to the point where it needs to be "grabbed"?
After inviting Su Yu to sit down, You Fujun took out a bag of fresh tea from the cabinet, brewed one cup for each person, and created a suitable atmosphere for discussing business.
The two systems work seamlessly together, exploring the data game library without interfering with each other.
Regarding Su Yu's question, You Fujun coughed twice, indicating that since the reunion route had completely collapsed anyway, she chose to continue rebuilding the storyline based on Su Yao's reaction.
Su Yao believes that Su Yu has been bewitched and controlled, and she wants to take her back and find a way to restore her to normal.
If special circumstances arise while completing a storyline, Time Management Bureau employees can, to a certain extent, fill in the plot themselves to keep the pre-ending storyline unbroken. Just like when a clue breaks during a case, employees can find other clues to incorporate and complete the case; this is called rebuilding the plot.
Although Su Yu was given permission by the plot consciousness to not have to worry about the plot, You Fujun was unaware of this and had to consider the tasks assigned by the Time Management Bureau.
Her previous performance has never been below an A, and this time it must not be an exception!
Su Yu's eyelids twitched, a vague sense of foreboding creeping in: "How do you plan to leave?"
You Fujun paused, not answering directly, but instead asking another question first: "Is Feng Shizhen your partner?"
“His name is now Feng Huaijin,” Su Yu sighed. “He’s probably my future partner.”
You Fujun sighed, "Could you tell me the specifics? I'll make some more plans."
Since things have come to this point, there's nothing that can't be said.
Su Yu briefly explained how he fell into the Demon Realm, how he found Feng Shier, and that he was already a pure-blooded demon. He hoped that You Fujun wouldn't tell Su Yao that he was already a demon.
After he finished speaking, both sides remained silent for a long time.
"..." Yu Fujun murmured in disbelief, "It actually collapsed from the very beginning?"
Crisis! This is a major crisis in her career!
What should we do?!
Su Yu cleared her throat and asked, "What do you think is the best way to plan this?"
Faced with a completely unrecognizable plot, Su Yu actually felt a little guilty in front of her colleagues.
Actually, Yu Fujun felt quite guilty in front of her colleagues.
She didn't dare tell her colleague, who was also the protagonist's brother, about how she helped the protagonist advance the plot and ended up getting together with him—a case of betrayal.
My colleague didn't know the villain's identity at all, which is why the plot collapsed.
She originally planned to officially get together with A Yao after the story ended, and nothing would be affected.
But to my utter surprise...
Not only did her main character's romantic storyline fall apart, but her family storyline and the villain's storyline also fell apart because of her colleagues!
You Fujun even had a momentary urge to abandon the mission.
But this is Ayao's world.
Completing the storyline and bringing the world that Ayao loves to life is something she definitely wants to achieve.
“Ayao already knows you’re a demon, but she thought you were forced into it,” so You Fujun gritted her teeth and started to come up with a remedy: “Here’s what we’ll do: you stay here and pretend you’ve lost your memory and are being controlled. Let the misunderstanding continue. When the two worlds go to war, let them fight it out until the end.”
Su Yu: "That won't do! Twelve is also my brother. He can't be beaten to death!"
You Fujun: "Just fake his death and don't let anyone else know, right?"
Su Yu shook her head: "No, my Twelve did nothing wrong, why should he fake his death and hide?"
You Fujun:? ? ?
A hint of worry and doubt appeared in You Fujun's eyes: "You haven't really been brainwashed, have you? They've already invaded the spirit world, and you still think of him as an innocent little flower?"
“I didn’t,” Su Yu said. “That was done by the previous Demon Lord. He has already been removed from power by the Twelfth. The current Demon Palace will not take over these spies. Your Spirit Realm will handle it yourselves.”
"Also, there are other ways to complete the World Upgrade Quest."
After a slight pause, Su Yu thought that she and her colleague were in the same boat, so she told You Fujun about the plot consciousness, including the conditions for upgrading and the two plot consciousnesses.
You Fujun nodded hesitantly. It sounded relatively simple to meet more people. As long as she went out to travel, she could meet all sorts of people. This method was much more humane than going to war and dying.
But the problem is: "Ayao's career path is still a little behind. What if it collapses if we don't keep up?"
She wasn't quite sure how Ayao would react if they separated.
“Then you should stay by A Yao’s side and guide her to meet more people during her travels,” Su Yu said thoughtfully, exuding a calm and composed aura. “That plot consciousness that wants to push the war forward might do something, so keep an eye out for it.”
"As for me..."
Besides the excuse of amnesia, what other excuse could he use to wander the world, recognizing people and demons, without returning to his home in the spirit world or the demon world?
You Fujun blinked and offered her usual choice when necessary in previous missions: "Feign death? Disappearance? Vanish without a trace?"
This colleague's methods are a bit too radical.
Su Yu: "Can't you just say it directly?"
“Not really,” You Fujun regained some of her seniority’s superiority in terms of common sense about the Time Management Bureau. “Before they break through to the peak of the Tribulation Transcending Realm, even if they formed a team channel, talking about the Time Management Bureau would sound like gibberish to them.”
"Only employees of the Time Management Bureau and those from the Small World who have broken through the limits of power can hear it clearly."
In this world where cultivation exists, those at the peak of the Tribulation Transcending stage can hear fragments of sentences about the Time Management Bureau. Only after breaking through to the Ascension stage can they have full contact with the Time Management Bureau, and may be invited by the Time Management Bureau to serve as an unofficial assistant or become an employee after passing the assessment.
"But aside from the Time Management Bureau, besides amnesia, there doesn't seem to be any other reason why you didn't recognize me the last few times we met."
“…There is a reason,” Su Yu said slowly after a long silence, “I thought she didn’t know I was a demon before, and I wanted to keep that a secret from her.”
But now all our secrets are about to be exposed.
Su Yu and You Fujun discussed it for a few more minutes and finally decided that Su Yu should stop pretending to have amnesia, lest A Yao really treat Twelve as a mortal enemy, which would be the end of them.
As for what he should say after that man and demon finish fighting and return, that really depends on Su Yu's eloquence and ability to maintain a balance.
Yu Fujun sincerely wished him good luck.
While they were discussing the mission amicably, the demon and the human left behind in the secret realm were about to explode.
The reason for this was the jade pendant that Su Yu was wearing, which could be located by Feng Huaijin.
He was fighting for half the time, and he had just inflicted some more obvious external injuries on himself. As a result, his magic was no longer in place!
It's not even outside the secret realm anymore!!
His brother was so happy to see him. It had been so long since they last met, and he even had a peak Mahayana cultivation level, stronger than the other one. Could he have left on his own accord?
It must have been that human in the Integration Stage who was left behind who resorted to dirty tricks!
