The Game with Fairies

Chapter 225

Through the perspective of Emerald Blade Mantis, Li Muyang saw the girl’s happy smile and fell silent once more.

The girl’s smile was pure and adorable, innocent and guileless.

But the happier and cuter she appeared, the more tragic it seemed when combined with her life circumstances.

Even Li Muyang, who ‘considered himself’ to have a heart of stone and lacking in sympathy, couldn’t help but feel a stir of emotion at the sight of the girl’s cheerful smile at this moment.@@@@

Li Muyang inside the barrel sighed softly.

The Emerald Blade Mantis in the game wrote a line on the ground.

【If I throw food into the Four Directions Cauldron, will you be able to receive it?】

“Yeah, yeah, just sneak it into the cauldron!”

The girl became happy upon seeing Li Muyang’s question: “Are you going to bring me food?”

Hope filled the girl’s eyes.

Li Muyang’s response, however, was somewhat indifferent.

【I’ll do it if I have the chance later】

After controlling the Emerald Blade Mantis to write this message, Li Muyang made the giant mantis turn around and walk towards the depths of the ghostly fog.

The girl’s life was somewhat pitiful, but there wasn’t much Li Muyang could do to help.

Having ascertained the reality of the place, Li Muyang didn’t want to waste time and continued to hunt and evolve in the fog.

But the girl’s voice came from behind.

“It’s okay if you can’t. Just come and talk to me when you have time.”

“Li Muyang, will you come again tomorrow?”

The girl’s voice was full of hope and a touch of nervousness.

The giant mantis in the mist fell silent for a moment, then lifted its jade-green giant scythe-like arms and waved gently, as a response.

Then, the ten-zhang-long giant mantis disappeared into the mist.

Only the girl named Shen Miao remained standing on the city wall, watching its figure leave with envy.

“So amazing...”

“To go wherever one wishes.”

The girl sighed with envy and suddenly remembered something, shouting loudly into the mist outside.

“Then I’ll wait for you tomorrow!”

And so, Li Muyang’s evolution hunting game suddenly included a new daily task.

The person who delivered the invitation was none other than Shen Yan, who was usually busy.

“The leader has high hopes for you and wants to meet and talk with you again,” Shen Yan said with a smile as she handed over the invitation.

Despite the blazing summer, her pale fingers were somewhat cold.

On the night of the victory banquet in Tianjiao City, Li Muyang had met the leader of the Blood Lotus Sect and exchanged a few words under Shen Yan’s introduction.

But there were many people at the banquet, and soon Li Muyang was taken away by Shen Yan.

Tonight’s invitation, however, was for a somewhat family dinner.

The Blood Lotus Sect leader was actually inviting Li Muyang to his home for a meal.

Such high regard would have made anyone else grateful and overwhelmed.

Li Muyang also cooperated by pretending to be very touched. After bathing and changing clothes, he left with Shen Yan.

The two stepped onto Shen Yan’s exquisite and sturdy carriage, escorted by a dozen beast knights, they passed through the city’s market streets, heading towards the residence of the sect leader.

At this time, Tianjiao City had regained its former prosperity.

Although it was already night, the streets were bustling with people, and the lights were bright.

Shen Yan leaned by the window, chatting softly with Li Muyang, talking about some interesting anecdotes.

The sound of the woman’s light laughter, mixed with the noise from the streets outside the carriage window, created a picture of peaceful times.

Li Muyang, being in the midst of it all, calmed his mind and stopped thinking about matters related to the game.

But just then, the carriage suddenly stopped.

The bustling noise from the streets outside the window had disappeared without notice.

The air, now eerily silent, was tinged with a somber pressure.

From outside the carriage’s curtain, the deep voice of Banner Master Ruan Mei could be heard.

“...Miss, it’s Du Qi.”

As soon as Ruan Mei’s voice fell, a man’s carefree laughter echoed from ahead.

“The guy inside the carriage, you’re called Li Muyang, right?”

“Du Qi, a Banner Master of the Yubo Hall, has long heard of your fame. I’ve heard you’re strong and broke through the tens of thousands of half-demon army of the Lihai Hall alone on Pingyang Hill.”

“Do you dare to come out and spar with me for a couple of rounds?!”

The man’s arrogant laughter rang out, and inside the carriage, Shen Yan rubbed her temples with a troubled expression.

“This person...”

Shen Yan looked at Li Muyang and said, “This person has been pursuing Nangong Ting for two years now.”
