Chapter 1606: Chapter 943: Fu Qingzhu
The original feeling of separation was completely disrupted by Xi Menxiu, and finally Yang Xiao let him go after Xi Menxiu promised to treat everyone to a big dinner tonight.
Under the persuasion of Beibei and Big Bear, the furious Yang Xiao sat down to rest, thinking that Yu Shu was still the best. He had been listening outside for so long and hadn’t heard Yu Shu joining this kind of boring gossip.
But he quickly realized the next second, it seemed Yu Shu couldn’t participate.
As Yang Xiao’s gaze fell on Yu Shu, dressed in a Lolita-style outfit and wearing small leather shoes that made her look like a good girl, Yu Shu suddenly became unnatural. Although her expression remained calm, the panic in her eyes was caught by Yang Xiao’s keen eye.
"Yu Shu, let me see your notebook!" Yang Xiao got up and walked over to her.
Yu Shu reacted quickly, and with a "whoosh," she stuffed the notebook she carried into the fabric messenger bag she regularly wore and then covered it tightly with her hand.
Seeing this, Yang Xiao felt half discouraged, knowing that it was probably not Xi Menxiu but this seemingly harmless good girl who had been criticizing him the most.
"You can’t escape tonight either. You and Xi Menxiu will treat us tonight!" Yang Xiao said angrily.
In the following period, Yang Xiao’s life got back on track. Besides his daily work, his training plan proceeded without delay. Nalan Shuo had invited a sword skill instructor and a staff instructor for him, and along with the previously invited Muay Thai expert, they carried out comprehensive enhancements on Yang Xiao.
Yang Xiao used his mornings for work and afternoons and evenings for training. At his current level, shooting training was no longer as beneficial, and even the Bald Coach admitted that Yang Xiao’s shooting talent was top-notch, saying that he couldn’t teach him anything more.
But the Bald Coach emphasized that Yang Xiao was not suitable for teamwork and suggested he should clear a 100-meter range around the Patrol Defense Office teammates before shooting.
After dinner at around 8 p.m., Yang Xiao returned to his Hengjiu Grand villa, took a comfortable hot shower, changed into pajamas, and opened his laptop, ready to play some games to relax.
He hadn’t played games for a long time since becoming an Angel Envoy. He didn’t dare to relax even for a moment, and the prolonged tension made him quite exhausted, so it was time to unwind.
"Teemo jungle, or I leave."
"Support is also possible, but only Ashe."
After expertly typing these two lines, seeing the teammates’ blessings quickly flashing by on the game page, Yang Xiao felt like he had come alive.
It’s that familiar feeling, the memories brought back by a stream of asterisks pulled Yang Xiao back to a few years ago. Unexpectedly, after years without logging in, the people in the game were still as passionate and understanding.
After losing three games in a row, Yang Xiao calmed down and prepared to sleep with a smile, first filing a report against those teammates who kept adding him as a friend.
Yang Xiao entered "propaganda of cults" in the report content, thinking "whether there’s a date or not, let’s first whack it."
After applying some skincare products taken from Yu Shu, Yang Xiao went to sleep beautifully. However, perhaps because he was too excited, he tossed and turned and couldn’t fall asleep.
Having no choice, Yang Xiao put on an outer garment, changed into a pair of light shoes, concentrated, and entered the Mirror World.
Light and shadow shifted before his eyes, and at this moment, the Mirror World was filled with gray fog. Looking closely, there were vaguely human shadows moving behind the fog.
This is the Mirror World’s defensive measure Ghost Fog Bottle; Yang Xiao checked these Puppets; very good, after leaving the Secret Realm, these petrified Puppets had all recovered one by one.
They weren’t human, so their life or death didn’t matter. For Yang Xiao, as long as they were useful, that was enough.
Yang Xiao had a few corpses stored in the secret room, apart from Elder Pu of Yiling Academy, the rest had You Level strength or above in life. Yang Xiao originally planned to transform these corpses into Ghost Fog Bottle Puppets but couldn’t succeed despite several attempts, seemingly lacking a method.
Unfortunately, Bo Yetong’s mouth was too tight, failing to extract useful information, which Yang Xiao regretted deeply.
Arriving at the secret room, the Mirror Ghost was still honestly lying on the bed, almost in the same posture as when Yang Xiao left; it was completely under control.
Yang Xiao reorganized the somewhat messy secret room, which now had a shelf transformed by Yang Xiao into a storage rack specifically for placing important items.
The boxes on the shelf contained Resentful Eye, along with several small cases that held Yang Xiao’s most significant gains from his Yi Sect trip this time.
One was an Identity Jade representing the Outer Elder of Yi Sect, one was an Incomplete Seal from Japan’s Kusunoki Family, and another was a Jade Token from One-character Sect.
While fondling this Jade Token, Yang Xiao thought again about that body missing a left arm, a body found on site as well.
Yang Xiao had heard of One-character Sect, it’s a significant force alongside Yi Sect, but he didn’t know them. However, he reckoned that he’d have the chance to know them in the future.
After organizing the items, Yang Xiao walked to an open area of the secret room, pulled out the Ghost Bamboo Stick, and activated the Ghost Face covering the handle with it.
The scene suddenly changed the next second, and the secret room disappeared, swallowed by a chaotic darkness below, and target circles appeared underfoot.
The Startled Ghost Mask was activated, and Yang Xiao was dragged into another world by the Ghost Face again.
This thing could transform appearances and also be used to test spiritual power intensity and train an Angel Envoy’s control of spiritual power.
The Yin Ji of Yi Sect and Sui both said he had reached the Mid-stage Ghost Level standard, and he wanted to see what his ultimate limit was now.
