"Okay," Xia Xiang agreed immediately.
"Have you played this before?" Gu Youyou asked Xia Xiang.
Xia Xiang shook her head. Who has time to play games? After arriving at Demon Island, I lived like a caveman.
However, she was still very pleased with the excellent retirement benefits on Bamo Island; it would be even better if the environment were even better.
"Take the simplest one," Gu Youyou instructed the black-clad demon envoy.
"No need," Xia Xiang stopped her. "I'm a good learner, so don't go easy on me. Give me something difficult."
Gu Youyou looked directly at Xia Xiang with her round eyes for the first time, her expression full of admiration. "Not bad, Lao Hei, take that hell level one."
Xia Xiang: "..." It doesn't have to be that difficult, does it?
——Game Time——
The room was filled with Xia Xiang's complaining voice: "Hey! I'm not good at it yet, let's start over."
"This controller is faulty; it's half a second too slow."
"The room was too dimly lit, it was affecting my vision."
"The room lights are too bright, causing glare on the screen."
"No, the room isn't well-ventilated. Open the window."
"The sound of him eating potato chips was too loud and interrupted my train of thought."
"I'm hungry..."
Gu Youyou: "......"
The black-clad demon envoy: "..."
Xia Xiang has already cheated more than twenty times...
"The Valley Master gave you this to do, and you've failed so many times!" Gu Youyou said helplessly. "You have snacks, toys, and a whole bunch of underlings here. What more could you want? You're practically living a life of leisure right after starting work. Isn't this the life of a god?"
"I didn't cheat. The previous times weren't my fault, okay? I can't control these accidents." Xia Xiang was extremely frustrated. Who knew playing a game would be so difficult?!
"I'm letting you have your way because you're a kid!" Gu Youyou rolled her eyes. "You only have ten chances left. If you don't meet the requirements, you'll have to stay here obediently."
"OK," Xia Xiang said helplessly, "I'll go out and get some fresh air and rest for twenty minutes."
——
"start!"
First game
"Fukes - Concentration - Ura Baha, Puritike - Prediction - Ura Baha," Xia Xiang cast two supernatural spells on herself.
Xia Xiang noticed their gazes. "They didn't say we couldn't use our abilities, did they?"
"I forgot to mention, she has supernatural abilities." The black-clad demon envoy touched his nose, avoiding eye contact with Gu Youyou.
"Old Hei, you forgot to mention, you're trying to usurp the throne! Just say it!" Gu Youyou glared at him.
"Sure, I'm already so good at this game that I can beat it with my eyes closed. You just need to be faster than me to win."
Ten minutes later
"We've already used up five chances. If we lose this sixth time, there's no point in continuing." Gu Youyou said arrogantly, certain that Xia Xiang would lose.
"I don't think so," Xia Xiang said, her face pale, as she drank three bottles of soda.
"You've overused your power, don't push yourself so hard," Gu Youyou said, her older age making her feel a pang of tenderness for Xia Xiang, the young girl.
"This place is so nice, there's plenty to eat and play, and lots of underlings for you to command. What's wrong with that? If you're worried that you're not strong enough to suppress them, there's Old Black. He refused to become the Valley Master for over fifty years. He'll help you."
"But I want to travel and have fun everywhere," Xia Xiang refused. "Besides, what good things can something be if no one else wants it? Can I accept it?"
Old Black: I'm drenched in sweat!
"..." Gu Youyou instantly withdrew her affection, her expression completely transformed by jealousy. "This is the last round."
Ten minutes later
"Yes!" Xia Xiang finally won a game after more than thirty defeats.
"Tch, I was just so angry because of you, my emotions were all over the place," Gu Youyou said dismissively.
Xia Xiang wins the next game.
Gu Youyou: "I suddenly felt like coughing, so I didn't perform well. Let's try again!"
Xia Xiang won the third game.
Gu Youyou: "It must be my controller that's broken. Lao Hei, get me a new one."
In the fourth game, Xia Xiang
Gu Youyou: "Don't be so smug, there's still one more round, you're definitely going to lose."
In the fifth game, Xia...
Gu Youyou: "That's enough, this round doesn't count!"
Xia Xiang and the black-clad demon envoy both stared at him speechlessly.
"How dare you cheat!" Xia Xiang, being a child, spoke bluntly.
“Using superpowers is cheating too!” Gu Youyou retorted.
"You didn't say we can't use superpowers!" Xia Xiang retorted, a little guilty but still defiant.
"Besides, you only have a few dozen games, and over the years, you've played them countless times, and I haven't said anything!"
"I'm asking you to tell me," Gu Youyou rarely put down the controller, lying on the ground, looking like she was at someone's mercy.
"I heard that in addition to the four demon envoys, there are also twelve demon warriors and twenty-four demon servants in the valley," Xia Xiang said, moving a little closer.
"Yeah, interested now?" Gu Youyou said, turning over.
"Gather the underlings you don't like and chop them up." Xia Xiang didn't care what she was saying at all, because the two people in front of her didn't care either.
She asked Gu Youyou to call people over so that he could screen them and avoid accidentally harming the former demon-slaying warriors who were living here in retirement.
And even if she really killed them, that would be an internal problem of Rock Valley, and had nothing to do with her, but what can she do when she's a kind and good girl?
"Hurry up, or the guys who came in with me will take care of all your loyal underlings."
