Chapter 2032: Chapter 2032: Be More Tolerant
Of course, the slight changes in facial features can’t completely change a person’s appearance, but it looks quite different from before. Yan Jiayu displayed her new ability and then changed back, smiling cheerfully, "I just recently figured it out. The transformation ti can’t be too long, and bones can’t change either. More impressive people can even grow taller. Unfortunately, I’ve never heard of anyone turning into a dog or cat. It would certainly be more interesting if you could change into a dog or cat!"
Xu Huo stared at her slightly fluctuating face, montarily speechless.
"As long as you’re happy."
Yan Jiayu chuckled, chatted for a while longer, then suggested she wanted to rest.
Mr. Dong took her upstairs, and Xu Huo collected two dals along with those secondary stones under the yearning gaze of the Girl in the painting, saying to her, "I’ll give them to you later."
The Girl in the painting was a bit disappointed but quickly adjusted her mindset, eagerly wanting to assist him upstairs.
"My legs are intact." Xu Huo politely declined her goodwill.
The Girl in the painting was undeterred, rushed upstairs to open the door and lay out the bed for him, even suggesting she could sleep outside the door to bring him tea and water at night.
Xu Huo pointed at the doorway.
Without approval, the Girl in the painting walked out dejectedly, dawdling as she clung to the doorfra, "I can try harder."
Xu Huo brushed aside her fingers and closed the door.
The weather was nice the next day. Yan Jiayu had arranged to go shopping with the Girl in the painting. Xu Huo got up to find they had already left. While having breakfast, Mr. Dong ca to inform him that last night, the castle had captured a player who sneaked in, and the person was still confined in an enclosed space.
The intruder was a man who appeared to be under thirty, a Rank-C Player. The first thing he did when pulled out was demand, "What’s your relationship with Little Yu’er?!"
Xu Huo glanced at the fiery-eyed man, raised his hand to use the Spatial Ray Blade to hold his neck, "I’ll only ask once, you can choose to answer or not answer. Who are you? What’s your purpose in stalking Yan Jiayu? Do you have other accomplices?"
The person who had been struggling on the ground instantly froze, swallowed hard, "You’ve got a blade to my throat, why wouldn’t I answer? Little Yu’er actively ca to you, so you shouldn’t have ill intentions towards her. I’ll tell you."
"I’m her defeated opponent. She beat
in an instance. In my life, I admire the strong the most. She may seem like a frail girl but she’s stronger than most n. I follow her here because I admire her... What, are you even going to interfere with other people’s secret admirations?"
Xu Huo put down his cutlery, turned his head to look at him, slowly showing a smile, "If you want to die, I can certainly oblige."
"Wait! Wait!" The man hurriedly stopped him, panting and quickly added, "I’m not a bad person, and I an no harm. I truly like Little Yu’er..."
The blade on his neck tightened a bit, blood flowing from the cut skin, the man sensing the approach of death quickly explained, "Actually, I want to follow Little Yu’er because she’s so strong and kind-hearted. Being with her wouldn’t lead to any loss!"
The Spatial Blade relaxed a bit, he exhaled deeply and continued, "My companions have all been killed by her, and I have no other friends, fearing survival in the ga, so I followed... I promise I an no harm, I can’t defeat her either..."
"That’s sowhat truthful." Xu Huo continued to ask, "How did you track her when Yan Jiayu crossed regions to co here?"
"It’s my characteristic," the man, lacking backbone, spilled everything like beans, "I have an unwavering characteristic, which allows
to locate which sub-region she’s in under the sa Wormhole Point, but I can only use this characteristic on one person for life... Actually, I do have a crush on Little Yu’er, but she doesn’t like . I know I’m not of much use, but I still have the courage to pursue love... I also don’t need her to necessarily accept , just being able to see her up close is enough for ... I’m very content..."
The castle was very quiet, Dr. Deng and the Girl in the painting weren’t present, Mr. Dong remained silent while Xu Huo kept eating, completely ignoring the man. He spoke a bit awkwardly but, seeing nobody stopping him, he went on expressing his insights on love and admiration towards Yan Jiayu.
Xu Huo turned a deaf ear to this, and only when the man was speaking with a dry mouth and throat did he clap for him, "Nice speech, you can continue when Yan Jiayu returns."
The man glared at him but lowered his head after a brief glance at Xu Huo’s gaze, speaking in a subdued tone, "I really just worry about Little Yu’er’s safety. Love isn’t about talk, it’s about action. I fear for her safety, even though she dislikes , my appearance would only trouble her. And what if she ends up hating
more because of this?"
Xu Huo was done listening, told Mr. Dong, "This guy doesn’t speak a word of truth, please make him shut up."
Mr. Dong obliged, and the man remained bound by props, glaring frustratedly at him, "You’re intentionally sabotaging my relationship with Little Yu’er!"
Xu Huo hadn’t responded yet when Yan Jiayu appeared at the castle’s entrance, rolled up her sleeves and imdiately landed two punches, knocking the helpless man who flew away and pinned him to the ground.
With a foot on his head, Yan Jiayu leaned forward to the man, "Qi Congming, didn’t I tell you not to follow
anymore, or else I’ll beat you every ti I see you?"
The man’s mouth wriggled, spitting out two loose teeth, changing his tone, "I won’t give up, you killed all my companions, you must take care of !"
Yan Jiayu was rather speechless, "Your companions were bad people, murderers and robbers. I freed you from them, and you bla
for it?"
"I don’t care if they’re good or bad, my protectors are good people in my eyes! You must agree even if you don’t, or I’ll stick by you for life, unless you kill !" The man was verbally defiant in front of her.
"I can do the job," Xu Huo said from the side.
The man’s expression shifted, then unsure whether convincing himself or others, "You won’t, you’re friends with Little Yu’er, and people share similar traits, so since she’s a good person, you surely are too. I haven’t done anything heinous, neither of you would kill ."
Only then did Yan Jiayu lift her head, sowhat troubled, "Although he’s a bit of a bully, he spent his early life doing good deeds. My master says to be more tolerant to people like him."
Xu Huo glanced at the Bi Qinglian person who’d lost a few teeth, nodding slightly, "That’s appropriate."
"He said tracking you uses a characteristic, but I suspect it’s not just a characteristic. You should check if there’s any prop of his on you."
