Slow to Realize
Published on:
Huo Silou's consciousness felt a bit dizzy.
Whether it was Fist Sage, Qian Shanxue, and Dharma Saint's attitudes toward him, or various other details, this skeleton currently holding her was very likely... her idol, Jiang Cheng!
"Heavens... is it really true?"
Huo Silou didn't quite dare believe this fact, finding it somewhat inconceivable.
As a materialist, she couldn't bring herself to believe that after death, a person could become a skeleton and enter the game.
Carefully and secretly tilting her head up, she glanced at Jiang Cheng's cheekbone, then examined Jiang Cheng carefully from head to toe.
From her angle, she could see everything, and she looked at it all meticulously.
Huo Silou desperately wanted to see some trace of her idol on him.
But obviously, the current Jiang Cheng was just a skeleton. How could she possibly see anything?
And now, she didn't dare ask.
It wasn't that she feared the Blue Skeleton would get angry, but rather she was afraid that after asking, if it wasn't him, this beautiful fantasy would turn to bubbles.
She preferred to believe in her heart that her idol had been reborn. Whether as a zombie or skeleton, at least he still existed, rather than having completely vanished from the mortal world.
However, she now had no way to face the current Blue Skeleton with her previous attitude.
"What's wrong with you?"
A sudden voice startled Huo Silou. After realizing it was Jiang Cheng's voice, she immediately became somewhat flustered.
"Noth... nothing."
"If nothing's wrong, then give directions. This place is a bit strange."
Jiang Cheng said with concentration.
Although he felt the Huo Silou in his arms was somewhat different, Jiang Cheng was too lazy to care.
"Oh, okay, okay, you fly toward the left, toward that big tree over there."
Huo Silou patted her chest and took a long breath.
She hadn't expected Jiang Cheng's intuition to be so keen that he could sense even her slight changes.
"Are you really okay?"
"Really okay, Jian... that... you don't need to worry about me, I'm really fine."
For some reason, Huo Silou now felt nervous and jumpy when talking to Jiang Cheng, extremely tense.
"Then the route you're directing me to, you think it's correct?"
Jiang Cheng pointed at the towering tree ahead with countless human heads hanging from it and asked with amusement.
"Is... is there something wrong... uh... this, this, I didn't know this tree was actually a level 200 big boss."
Seeing the corpses scattered everywhere beneath the towering tree, Huo Silou felt somewhat embarrassed.
Her mind was now full of the words "Jiang God," so how could she have the presence of mind to think about anything else? The route she'd just given was completely random.
"However, a level 200 boss would be very difficult for us, but for you, it shouldn't have any impact, right?"
Huo Silou's tone was nonchalant.
After all, this was a big shot who had killed a thousand-level boss and was very likely her idol reincarnated as a skeleton. A level 200 boss should be something he could casually kill in seconds, right?
"I don't know where your confidence in me comes from, but let's go around it. You give directions again."
Jiang Cheng's current location was called Misty Mountain, different from the route he'd taken before. Here mist swirled around, and without Observing Eyes, he indeed had some difficulty seeing the path.
Huo Silou, due to her profession, could see through these mists.
Jiang Cheng could only ask for her help.
"Oh... I... I know, I definitely won't make mistakes again, I'm sorry."
"Hmm?"
Jiang Cheng's eyes narrowed slightly, looking at Huo Silou somewhat strangely.
"The previous Huo Silou wasn't this humble."
"Uh... what... what do you mean by that? After a 20-year-old old auntie like me understands your strength, what's wrong with surrendering to your intimidating presence? Isn't that allowed?"
Knowing Jiang Cheng had noticed something amiss, Huo Silou quickly covered up.
"Hmm? That's finally a bit more normal." Jiang Cheng spread his wings, avoided the man-eating locust tree, and quickly flew toward higher sky.
"Ah..." Suddenly flying high, Huo Silou was startled, but quickly adapted. At the same time, she grumbled internally, "This damned tone is exactly the same as Jiang God's. How did I not notice before?"
The same coldness, keeping people at arm's length, the same straightforwardness, so straightforward as to be completely unromantic, the same dominance, never saying half a word of nonsense in his speech.
This personality was exactly the same as her idol Jiang God!
"I was really too stupid. Why did I only discover this now! When Luo Feng called him master before, I should have believed it!"
Huo Silou frowned somewhat regretfully, "Along this whole journey, I've been no different from a shrew. Now, his impression of me must be particularly bad!"
"Sigh... perhaps he's destined to be a man I can't have... even after rebirth, he's unwilling to come to my side..."
Huo Silou's expression suddenly became somewhat dejected as she secretly glanced at Jiang Cheng, who was earnestly hurrying along.
Cold, profound, powerful and charismatic...
"Some people, no matter where they are, no matter what they become, can stand out from millions of people and become the most dazzling existence. Maybe... I really don't deserve him."
"But... I definitely won't give up!"
