Out of fear of death, Invest Everything into Health-Chapter 277 - 145: Great Wilderness Cyan Dragon Horn, Laws of All Things (10,000 Words Delivered)

As soon as he walked out of Shilong Lane, Fan Wubing ran into Fu Manman and her friends.

"That's great, you're okay!" Fu Manman hugged him tightly, all her worries turning into joy. She clung to Fan Wubing's arm, afraid of losing him again.

Fan Wubing breathed a sigh of relief and was about to pat her head when he suddenly noticed there were other people around.

He looked at Ye Wuyue, was momentarily stunned, then released Fu Manman and asked, "Nineteen Princess?"

Seeing Fan Wubing again, Ye Wuyue's feelings were a bit complicated. He had lectured her before, and now he seemed like half a rival in love... Sigh, she thought to herself, maybe I don't even count as half a rival, it's just wishful thinking.

"Long time no see." Ye Wuyue smiled a bit.

Fan Wubing paused. The Ye Wuyue he remembered had a bit of princess syndrome, but now she seemed like a different person. What a change!

"Yeah, long time no see."

For some reason, or perhaps wanting to show her friendly side, Ye Wuyue suddenly said, "I like women."

This sentence was spoken.

Everyone present, except for Xianchan, was stunned. Even a few passersby who happened to hear it were taken aback.

Fan Wubing didn't know how to respond. He couldn't figure out the purpose of that statement.

Awkward, utterly awkward.

He saw Ye Wuyue almost bursting with embarrassment, guessing that the words came out without much thought.

He smiled, "What a coincidence? I like women too."

"Pfft—" Fu Manman couldn't help but laugh from the side.

The awkwardness eased a lot.

But Ye Wuyue, having apologized profusely for her rudeness, couldn't stay any longer and ran away.

"How odd." Fan Wubing couldn't help but say.

Fu Manman thought for a moment, chuckling, "She always seemed to think that as a woman, liking women was strange. I told her before it's not strange at all, that she needed to face it. Unexpectedly, she faced it too much and made a declaration as soon as she arrived."

"I see."

"Oh, by the way. She likes Qingyao."

"Who?" Fan Wubing raised his voice.

"Qingyao."

"This..." Fan Wubing remembered Luo Qingyao telling him how Ye Wuyue used to cling to her as a child, "So it's innate, huh."

"Your love rival," Fu Manman said with deep meaning.

Fan Wubing's face froze, "Are you teasing me."

"You don't like Qingyao?"

"Hey, my Little Princess, don't pressure me," Fan Wubing said, covering his face.

"I don't mind," Fu Manman said, hands behind her back, slightly tilting her chin up as she walked towards Green Screen Workshop.

Fan Wubing didn't believe it for a second; this must be a test. He figured if he showed any sign of happiness, he'd be in for a cold war.

Women are like that.

So he said very seriously, "My feelings towards Qingyao are purely those of a sibling relationship."

Fu Manman turned her head, chuckling lightly, "I've recorded those words with my soul. I'll play them back to you some day."

With that, she walked away with a spring in her step.

Fan Wubing helplessly sighed.

Just then, Xianchan tugged at his sleeve.

"What's up, Xianchan?"

Xianchan stared with bright eyes full of anticipation, tugging harder at his sleeve.

"Do you want me to squat down?" Fan Wubing, over time, had learned to understand her gestures without needing her to draw pictures.

Xianchan nodded vigorously.

Fan Wubing squatted down, then noticed, "Xianchan, have you gotten a bit taller?"

Xianchan smiled briefly, then turned serious again.

She produced a pair of horns from somewhere and, before Fan Wubing could see clearly, placed them on his head. The dragon horns immediately sank into his forehead and quickly disappeared into his body.

Fan Wubing felt his forehead in confusion, found nothing, checked his body inside and out, but couldn't find the horns, so he asked, "Xianchan, what did you put on me?"

Xianchan flashed a mysterious smile and then ran after Fu Manman.

Fan Wubing stood up and was about to chase after her when a prompt appeared before him,

["Great Wilderness Cyan Dragon Horn"]

After waiting a moment...

"That's it?"

It was the first time he encountered a player interface description that only had a name.

"Oh well, at least I know they're dragon horns... Hmm, Chan'Er loves me and probably wouldn't give me anything strange..."

Thinking this, Fan Wubing felt ecstatic, light on his feet.

...

Green Screen Workshop was deep in the Gen District, unaffected by the chaos of the Demon Cultivators.

At noon, Fan Wubing walked out of Lv Liang's house and returned to his rented home.

He felt puzzled, "What kind of person is Lv Liang? What happened to him last night? Will he return?"

Inside the warm room.

Fu Manman was peeling an orange. Xianchan squinted comfortably by the stove, her chin resting on the small table. She had put on a bit of weight recently and looked like a squished bun. The little one really knew how to enjoy herself, as soon as Fu Manman peeled an orange, she opened her mouth, waiting for it to be fed to her.

Fu Manman quite enjoyed the feeling of feeding her, her eyes brimming with happiness.

"Are we still staying in Buxu City?"

"No, we're not staying."

"Then where are we going next?"

Fan Wubing thought of the location for the second prerequisite of 'Heart's Desire', "A rather strange place."

"Strange?"

"Yeah, a city. But unlike any cities we've seen before."

"In Great Li?"

"Yes. In the northeast of Great Li."

"When are we leaving?"

Fan Wubing hesitated, "Actually... I want to go alone."
