Ximen Chuixue Is My Goddess
Chapter 14
Actually, I really wanted to explain it to Simon Suisue, but he didn't give me the chance.
But to be honest, I still let out a sigh of relief. It was impossible to explain this kind of thing clearly. It was best that he didn't ask.
Otherwise, he would either treat me as a retard, or I would find an excuse to avoid him.
It would be better not to ask.
I let out a silent sigh of relief. Maybe I should rejoice that the host I chose was Simon Suisue. Although he was a bit cold, he was a man of few words, responsible, and reliable.
If it was Lu Xiaofeng, who liked to get to the bottom of things, I wouldn't be able to live a stable and peaceful life anymore.
I silently counted on my fingers. To be honest, my feelings for Ximen Chuixue had long since been reignited. Exchanging bodies was indeed rather awkward, but it had somehow brought us much closer together. At the very least, I was now looking at Ximen Chuixue.
No matter how cold he was, I had used that body for many years. I couldn't feel respect for that face.
Even if I knew that the core was Simon Suisue, it was still the same.
I just didn't know what he was thinking when he looked at my face. Would he feel the same way as me?
Even if it was only because I couldn't help but get close to him, with the addition of the System, it could be said that our relationship had become even closer. Under these circumstances, I still wouldn't be able to get Xi Men Chuixue.
How could I be worthy of the good conditions the author created for me?
I quickened my pace and caught up to Simon Suisue. Just as I was about to speak, I suddenly smelled blood.
Me: "… …"
I stiffly reached out to grab Simon Suisue's sleeve. I looked at his pale face and suddenly said, "How about I carry you back?"
I made this request very naturally, and … I was looking forward to it!
Simon Suisue was silent for a moment. Under my expectant gaze, he shook his head and said firmly, "No need."
As expected, he suffered because he wanted to save face. I thought it was a pity, so I grabbed his hand and didn't let go. "Is there a need? This is my body. What does it have to do with you if I show it concern?"
Simon Suisue pushed my hand away quietly and said, "I'm really fine."
I shook my head regretfully. After all, there was no way to force it. Even if Simon Suisue was in his current state, I still couldn't beat him.
They returned to the inn in silence.
He went back to his room to pack his things. According to Simon Suisue, they could set off today.
I picked up the mirror and looked at myself in it.
No matter how many times I looked at it, I would still have a strange feeling. I touched the thick calluses on my fingertips and thought.
The livestream was still on, so I quietly watched Ximen Chuixue's situation. He was sitting there with a serious expression on his face, holding his sword. His expression was calm, and I couldn't tell what he was thinking.
Perhaps every swordsman had some strange habits, as well as a terrifyingly good patience.
I sighed and continued to check my private messages.
Quanzhen's fourth-generation disciple: [Ah, you've finally appeared. I've been waiting for a long time.]
I didn't know he thought of me like that, so I replied: [What is it?]
Quanzhen's fourth-generation disciple: [Do you really know about the Nine Yin Manual?]
Me: [It's easy if you want to know, but you have to give something of equal value.]
Since I decided to set up a trading platform, I naturally couldn't break the rules. Everything had to be exchanged with something of equal value.
Otherwise, if I was too easy to talk to, it would be difficult in the future.
Quanzhen's fourth-generation disciple: [I still have some money left from the last time you gave me.]
Me: [No, that's not what I want.]
With Simon Suisue, I naturally didn't lack money. What I was interested in was Yang Guo as the main character, the adventures he would encounter. Those were things that couldn't be bought with money.
Me: [Are you still in Quanzhen?]
Quanzhen's fourth-generation disciple: [Yes, Uncle Guo just sent me here last month.]
Me: [The Nine Yin Manual is under the sarcophagus in the Tomb of the Living Dead.]
Quanzhen's fourth-generation disciple: [… Ah, that's a forbidden area. How can I enter?]
Me: [Then I don't care. My request is that you give me a copy of the "Jade Heart Sutra" in the Tomb of the Living Dead.]
Quanzhen's fourth-generation disciple: [Didn't you say it would be easy to do?]
Me: [It's not difficult for you.]
Quanzhen's fourth-generation disciple: [Why?
I don't even know how to enter?]
I shrugged and said: [You'll understand in the future. Don't worry, if you can't do it in half a year, you can complain to me!]
Quanzhen's fourth-generation disciple: […]
I closed the message and started to choose the next one. Just now was an investment. If I wanted to get a return, it would take a long time. I wasn't afraid that Yang Guo would go back on his word. He would have a lot of trouble in the future!
Actually, I really wanted Xiao Long Nu's Golden Silk Glove. It was said that it was invulnerable to fire, water, and swords. It was really rare, but Yang Guo had no use for it.
I also didn't know what Xiao Long Nu had that she would be willing to trade with me.
I opened Scarlet Serpent Deity's private message for a trade. I could guess what she wanted from me. After Yang Guo gives me the copied secret scriptures, I will trade with her.
But after a pause, I opened the message window. Ahem, I was always a little biased towards beautiful girls.
Red Silk Fairy: [Do you know about the "Nine Yin Manual"?]
I was stunned. Why did she ask about this? Shouldn't she be asking about the "Jade Heart Sutra"?
I still replied: [I know, but what are you willing to trade with me?]
Red Silk Fairy: [What do you want?]
I hesitated for a moment, then probed, [Woman's Heart Sutra]
Red Silk Fairy: [Okay.]
This time, I was really surprised. What was going on? Li Mochou actually succeeded.
I finally couldn't help it: [As far as I know, it should be in your junior sister's hands.]
Red Silk Fairy: [She's missing.]
Me: "… …"
Damn, damn, damn, what kind of joke is this? Xiao Long Nu is missing. Without the female lead, how are we going to continue the story?!
But suddenly, I thought of another possibility. Could it be that she was like Yuan Suiyun and the others, who came here because of the space-time turbulence?!
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that it was possible. I sighed silently. It seemed that I would have to trade with Yang Guo later.
Me: [In addition, I want a copy of the "Nine Yin Manual" and the Golden Silk Glove.]
Red Silk Fairy: [Aren't you being a little too greedy?]
Me: [Oh, then I'll give you a piece of advice that concerns your life.]
The Scarlet Serpent Deity hesitated for a moment. However, when she thought of the bizarre scenes she had seen in the past few days, as well as the people of the Jianghu who were actively speaking out of nowhere, she gradually believed that there were indeed other worlds. She even had an indescribable sense of awe towards them.
In the end, she clenched her teeth and said: [Okay.]
[Red Silk Fairy wants to trade with you.]
[Trade confirmed. Trade complete.]
I confirmed that I had received the item from my inventory and replied:
Me: [There's a mechanism under the coffin in the ancient tomb. There's a secret room and the manual is carved on the wall.]
Red Silk Fairy frowned: [It's in the Tomb of the Living Dead?]
Me: [You should know about your ancestor and Wang Chongyang, right?
He was the one who carved it on the wall.]
Red Silk Fairy: [I'm very curious about your true identity.]
Me: [Oh.
Give up. I won't tell you.]
Red Silk Fairy: [… Then what about the advice?]
Me: [We'll talk about it after you give me the copy!]
Red Silk Fairy: [Okay.]
I knew that these people had doubts. The streaming system was such a high-tech thing. Even if my era developed for another few hundred years, it might not be able to develop the technology of this plane.
It was also because of this miraculous thing that Li Mochou chose to believe me and was able to talk to me nicely. Otherwise, the Scarlet Serpent Deity, who killed people like flies, would not be a good person.
As for Yang Guo, since Xiao Long Nu had disappeared, the trade we made just now was not valid. I hesitated for a moment and decided to change the condition. Even if the plot had changed greatly, Yang Guo was still the main character. Some things might not change.
I opened my inventory and took out the two items I had just obtained.
As for the Heart Sutra, I skimmed through it. It was a rare dual cultivation technique. Moreover, the cultivation method in the original novel was not suitable for children, but I liked it. Hehehe!
I held the paper and prepared to ask Simon Suisue later if he wanted to practice with me.
As for the Golden Silk Gloves, they looked very exquisite, but I couldn't recognize the material. In any case, I would keep them for now. Maybe I would be able to use them in the future. Maybe I would be able to block swords with my bare hands.
Unfortunately, there were only a few materials. Otherwise, if I used them to make armor, the defense would be very strong. In the future, I wouldn't have to worry about being beaten up!
The system's inventory could also store a lot of things. I stuffed the bag I had just packed into it.
Suddenly, a notification sounded in my ear.
[Red Silk Fairy wants to trade with you.]
I pressed confirm and another item appeared in my inventory.
Red Silk Fairy: [I have already paid for all the items.]
Me: [Okay, I got it. My advice is to not go to Unrequited Love Valley.]
Red Silk Fairy: [That's it?]
I coughed dryly and continued to pretend to be a fraud: [You will understand in the future.]
I received the Nine Yin Sutra. Although I knew it was only a part of it, I was still interested. I might as well show it to Simon Suisue later.
