Chapter 112: Eager for Revenge
Chapter 112: Eager for Revenge
The old man's humble abode was bare and very simple, and it was obvious that he had been living alone and in financial difficulty for a long time.
However, what was surprising was that there were two beds in the room.
The old woman slept in a bed by herself, while Cha Yiyi and Cha Yuan shared one.
As for Youlan Shang and Mo Jingzhou, they did not sleep the whole night and found a place outside to meditate and cultivate their spiritual power.
Perhaps she had something on her mind, so Cha Yiyi got up before daybreak.
When she walked out of the room, she saw the two men still concentrating on their cultivation, so she didn't disturb them.
She opened the door and walked out with Xiao Mi, thinking about the plan to be implemented today.
In the original novel, Bai Xueruo will enter the forest of monsters today.
If she wanted to confirm Bai Xueruo's true identity, she would have to go in with her.
To be honest, it's still a bit dangerous...
Cha Yiyi lowered her head and slowly walked to the huge rock. She reached out and touched the red words on the rock, feeling quite undecided.
[Xiao Mi, do I have to follow Bai Xuerou into the Monster Forest to learn her identity?]
[Of course! If you want to catch her revealing herself, this is the only way.]
[But I'm a little scared. What if I get eaten by the monsters inside?]
[Host, if you are truly afraid, then stop thinking about seeking revenge on Bai Xuerou. Wouldn't it be better to just honestly complete the tasks assigned by the system?]
[No! If I don't take revenge, I...]
"Didn't I tell you to stay away from me forever? What are you doing here again?"
Before Cha Yiyi could finish what she was saying, she heard the old woman's unhappy voice coming from the side.
She was a little stunned. Who could have come to see the old woman and made her so angry?
Cha Yiyi hid behind a huge rock and quietly poked her head out.
Just one glance and she was stunned on the spot.
"Mother, I was born by you, why do you hate me so much?"
It was Bai Xuerou!
Bai Xueruo actually called this old lady mother?
The old woman who took them in last night was Bai Xueruo's mother?
Then she and Bai Xuerou are half-sisters...
Doesn't this mean that this old woman is also her mother? !
Oh my god! What a coincidence!
"Don't you know why I hate you?"
The old woman looked at Bai Xueruo with a sneer, and there was no trace of a mother's love for her child in her cloudy eyes.
The woman's face turned pale, and obvious embarrassment flashed in her beautiful eyes.
"Mother, don't worry, I won't pester you." She paused for a few seconds and then continued, "I'm just visiting you today. I'm going to the Monster Forest soon."
"You're going to the Forest of Monsters?"
The old woman said anxiously, unable to hide the worry on her face.
Unfortunately, Bai Xueruo didn't look at the old woman's face, so naturally she couldn't know the worry expressed on her face.
"Ah."
"But...it's all..."
Bai Xuerou smiled sadly and said, "Am I not considered one too?"
The old woman turned her head away and said with a hard heart, "If you want to go, go ahead."
Cha Yiyi looked at the old woman's back as she walked slowly away, feeling very uncomfortable.
This feeling is hard to describe. Suddenly I found out that a stranger I had never met before was actually my biological mother.
I'm afraid no one can accept reality and adjust their mentality in a short period of time.
Bai Xueruo stood there for a while before turning around and walking towards the forest of monsters with firm steps.
Cha Yiyi hid behind a huge rock, feeling torn and not knowing which path to take.
[Xiao Mi, which way do you think I should go? ]
"That depends on how strong your desire for revenge is, host. You must understand this: you can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a child! Following Bai Xuerou into the forest of monsters is your only chance to defeat her in one blow."
Xiao Mi's words touched Cha Yiyi's heart, but she was still a little hesitant.
It's nothing more than understanding the origin of the Monster Forest and not daring to step in and take risks.
What if... What if an accident happens, not only will I not be able to take revenge, I may also be in danger of losing my life.
【Xiao Mi, will you go in with me? 】
【certainly. 】
【why? 】
Revenge on Bai Xueruo was not a task assigned by the system, it was purely her personal selfishness.
[…If I must give a reason, it's because you're my host. If you die, I'll be taken back to the system headquarters for 'reinvention.']
Cha Yiyi didn't know what Xiao Mi meant by "retraining", but she didn't ask in detail.
She was already very grateful that Xiao Mi was willing to accompany her on this adventure; even if it wasn't willing, she wouldn't blame it.
It is her personal matter, and others have no obligation to help and accompany her.
Cha Yiyi bent down, picked up Xiao Mi from the ground and held her in front of her.
[Xiao Mi, I've made up my mind. I want revenge.]
Xiao Mi blinked its amber cat eyes, not understanding why the host suddenly picked it up.
However, it still cooperated and expressed its attitude.
【Then go, I'll accompany you. 】
The girl's almond-shaped eyes curved into a pair of crescents, and those eyes, which were the same amber color as Xiao Mi's, shone with extremely bright light.
She lowered her head and touched her forehead to Xiao Mi's, her tone extremely soft.
"Xiao Mi, you are my best friend."
Maybe he had never seen such a gentle side of Cha Yiyi before, or maybe he was just shy.
Xiao Mi suddenly broke free from the girl's hand, jumped lightly to the ground, and spoke in a stiff and unnatural tone.
"Let's go quickly, be careful not to lose Bai Xuerou."
Cha Yiyi smiled happily, and walked towards the forest of monsters with the little black ball...
When the old woman returned to the house, the two handsome men were still concentrating on practicing spiritual energy.
She lowered her head and hesitated for a few seconds, but still couldn't help but walk towards another room.
How could she resist taking a few more glances at the person she had kept in her heart for so long?
The old woman pushed open the old wooden door quietly, and her cloudy eyes looked through the crack in the door at the only bed in the room.
There was only one person sleeping peacefully on the simple bed, and there was no sign of the person she was thinking of.
She pushed the door open suddenly, and the loud sound of the wooden door hitting the wall made Youlan Shang and Mo Jingzhou open their eyes at the same time.
But the woman sleeping peacefully in bed did not wake up.
The old woman's wrinkled face was pale with panic.
She ignored the proper etiquette for entertaining guests and walked straight to the bedside, reaching out to shake the sleeping woman.
"Where's Yiyi? Didn't she sleep with you yesterday?"
The two men looked at each other, their faces suddenly darkened, and they stood up and walked quickly into the room.
Xiangning was sleeping on the bed with her eyes closed and showed no signs of waking up.
Youlan Shang immediately walked over, brushed the old woman away, and gave a brief explanation.
"She won't wake up until the evening."
The old woman looked anxious and had no intention of thinking about what the man said. She just kept repeating the same sentence over and over again.
"Yiyi is missing! Yiyi is missing!"
She pushed away the two men blocking the door and walked out of the house tremblingly, as if trying to find Cha Yiyi.
Looking at the old man's absent-minded appearance, a hint of deep thought flashed across Youlan Shang's inky phoenix eyes.
This old woman's concern and worry for his wife is a bit too much...
