Chapter 29

The saint’s half-obscured face was permeated with an dubious sense of mystery in the partial light. She curled her lips slightly, but her smile didn’t reach her eyes. “Yes, but soon I will no longer be Miss Hei Zhenzhu.”

She snapped her fingers and the decorative snake waiting within the temple slowly moved. It shook the stone from its body, lifted its head and spat out a forked tongue. It was brought to life.

— This was a giant silver-banded snake!

“It’s called Xiao Tun.1 Look how cute it is.” The saint looked at its head as if admiring an oil painting. It was a giant’s snake head as big as a person, but she said to You Xi a bit reluctantly, “I’ll give it to you as a pet in the future.”

The saint’s expression of ‘look how nice I am to you. Praise me, please.’ made You Xi want to beat her up. Who would want such a big snake as a pet? What would happen if I fell asleep and it ate me!

Seeing that You Xi was unappreciative, the saint wasn’t aggravated. She still smiled benevolently: “More than just that. From now on, this entire underground palace, even the thousands of skeletons, are yours. Even me. The shops opened in the name of Miss Hei Zhenzhu, the Sheng Zhilian Alliance that I established, all of it will belong to you–“

The saint coaxed him: “As long as you’re obedient and follow me.”

“But I’m not interested in your wealth.” You Xi backed away and bluntly refused.

The saint shut her eyes and shook her head. The smile at the corners of her mouth didn’t disappear, but when she opened her eyes once more, they were filled with helplessness. “Aiya, it seems that you still haven’t understood the current situation.”

The saint stretched out her index finger and touched it to her lips. “Listen. What I want to give you can’t be rejected. What I want you to do, you must obey. Otherwise–“

The giant snake’s head had gotten close to You Xi at some point, and the long forked tongue almost touched You Xi’s face.

”

”

You Xi’s hair stood on end and he ducked to the side.

“So, don’t displease me. This is your last chance.” The saint’s purple eyes shone brightly like thousands of stars. They seemed to show affection when looking at You Xi, but You Xi felt that her look was cold, like a hissing snake. “Follow me.”

He was weaker than her in this situation, so You Xi had to follow the saint into the white jade gate. After approaching the statue, the door behind them slowly closed. The saint touched the statue’s face as she narcissistically asked You Xi: “Do you think I’m beautiful?”

You Xi went along with the saint’s performance: “Beautiful.” That was to say, he just couldn’t tell where that description didn’t fit her.

“But you’re more beautiful than me.” The saint lifted her long hair and suddenly tugged it with force. She actually ripped the long hair from her head.

You Xi: “!!!”

What kind of issue would lead to you ripping out your hair?

The saint had ripped out her long hair to reveal short purple hair. Her face was icy, and she was extraordinarily bold. She threw the wig to the ground and directly started to remove her skirt–

“Wait a minute!” You Xi said, “There may be minors in my live broadcasting room; don’t do that!”

The saint sneered: “Don’t worry. After walking through the gate, that broken game won’t be able to monitor us.”

Just when You Xi thought the saint was going to start driving2, her skirt fell to the ground, and You Xi saw the saint’s eight pack abs and big white pants.

You Xi: “……” He should have noticed that this guy is a man!

“Take your clothes off and give them to me!” The saint finally stopped speaking oddly and spoke arrogantly, “Then you put on this damned skirt and this fucking wig!”

You Xi’s three views were about to be shattered: “So you worked that hard to trick me into this instance just to make me replace you as a fake crossdresser?”

The saint stood there with his arms folded, filled with darkness: “Yes. It’s a pity you realized it too late; you’ve entered my trap. Now you have to enter the tiger’s mouth.”

“No. I feel like I can still get out of this.” You Xi said seriously.

After he finished speaking, he immediately launched a poop pie at the half-naked saint. The saint didn’t expect to see something thrown at him, and reached out dramatically to catch it. The fake poop pie fell into the saint’s hand exactly as planned, and it was crushed by the saint’s rage–

The sticky poop pie exploded. Part of it splattered into the sky, and part of it slipped to the ground.

The saint stretched his slender hands out in disbelief, and saw that the fake poop pie had left a suspicious mark on his hand.

“You’re looking for death!” The saint glowered in fury, and involuntarily reached out to You Xi with the hand that had crushed the fake poop pie.

You Xi ran wildly, but there was unfortunately only a large are beyond the jade gate. Within a few seconds of struggling, the mink fur he was wearing was grabbed by the saint.

Under threat of death, You Xi fought hard. The golden cicada escaped its shell and he successfully removed his mink fur clothes.

“Forget it. I’ll just leave this to you.” After taking off the fur, You Xi still wore a shirt. He spoke as he stepped back, “You’ve watched my livestream. You should know that this is fake… There’s nothing to be angry about.”

The saint couldn’t wait to tear You Xi to pieces, but at that critical moment, the envoy in the hall outside began to shout: “Lord Saint! Lord Saint, something bad is happening! A giant monster has come here!!!”

After hearing that, the saint stepped away and his face darkened. He had to deal with that foreign enemy first. He narrowed his beautiful eyes and warned You Xi: “You stay here for me obediently!”

The saint spat out his cruel words, picked up the clothing and the wig on the ground, and put them back on himself angrily.

You Xi: “……” This saint looks so miserable. He didn’t want to take over as a crossdresser. Even if he was always trapped in the instance and couldn’t escape, he would help the skeletons fight at every turn.

You Xi had been locked in the secret room by the saint, so he couldn’t see the situation outside. He could only hear the saint reapply his false virtue just now, elegantly asking: “Monster? What kind of monster?”

The holy envoy was panicked as he described it, saying that the monster’s face was as large as a plate, and it looked like Mt. Tai, the same size as the Heaven-Swallowing Snake.

The voices outside gradually became quieter, so You Xi guessed that the saint had left Tun Ri Temple.

He finally let out a breath of relief and began to analyze how to escape from the room.

His situation couldn’t get any worse. You Xi started two things and couldn’t stop until they were done. First, he smashed the statue of the saint. “Maybe this thing is the body of the boss and after smashing it, the boss’s health will be greatly reduced.”

But You Xi was disappointed. It was just a statue that couldn’t be any more ordinary. There were no martial arts secrets hidden in the broken statue. You Xi searched through it, only to find a black pearl within the debris.

“This should be the saint’s treasure, ba?” You Xi thought optimistically. Like this, he would have completed half of the instance’s mission. Now as long as he found the exit smoothly, he would escape without a trace and be able to successfully clear the level.

“You can do it!” You Xi cheered himself up. He explored the inside and outside of the secret room. Just as he was laying on the ground and patting the floor to check if it was hollow or if there were any hidden mechanisms, the jade gate opened again.

The saint had left and returned.

Seeing that his statue had been smashed, the saint smiled furiously. If it weren’t for the trace of blood spilling from the corner of his lips, You Xi really wouldn’t have been able to tell that the saint had been injured.

“I just touched the statue lightly, oh. It suddenly broke by itself.” You Xi pretended to be innocent.

The saint clenched his fists and looked like he wanted to hit someone, but then he spat a large mouthful of blood and fainted to the ground.

You Xi was stunned.

At the same time, Guo Juexing rescued Zhou Yu while the giant paperman was causing trouble. The two ran into Tun Ri Temple, but Zhou Yu suddenly took out a short knife and stabbed Guo Juexing in the back. Fortunately, Guo Juexing was currently a skeleton, and the knife cut through his bones. It made a crisp sound, but Guo Juexing wasn’t injured.

“Zhou Yu, what are you doing?” In the face of Zhou Yu’s sudden action, Guo Juexing was puzzled.

Without a word, Zhou Yu used all of his effort to attack Guo Juexing, while behind Guo Juexing, the Heaven-Swallowing Snake squirmed slowly and silently and opened its giant mouth–

“Twang!” The sound of a released arrow passed Guo Juexing’s ears as it shot behind him. Fu Qing, who had been missing for a long time, suddenly appeared in the temple to help Guo Juexing block the fatal blow from the Heaven-Swallowing Snake.

Fu Qing roared at Guo Juexing: “Don’t you understand? Zhou Yu is a cultist, kill him quickly!”
