The fairies I flirted with in the game became real?!-Chapter 767 - The Laymans Wish

It is a haunt of monster beasts, rarely visited by humans, practically a no-man’s land.

Li Muyang, hiding there, could avoid much tracking and hostility.

Liu Lian’er had no objections and so stayed on the Flying Boat.

The subsequent developments were as Liu Lian’er expected.

The news of the Hehuan Sect’s sect heir being kidnapped didn’t spread in the Cultivation World, causing no ripples whatsoever.

The Hehuan Sect didn’t even send anyone to pursue or bother them.

Li Muyang’s Flying Boat flew unimpeded toward the south.

After gathering information along the way, Li Muyang felt somewhat relieved.

The upcoming gathering at Demon Sword City on the third day of the first lunar month drew near, and all Immortal Artifact Masters were to meet there; Xie Liuyun had no time to chase him.

And since the Sect Master of the Hehuan Sect did not take action, the number of people within the Hehuan Sect who could threaten Li Muyang was quite small.

During these days, besides gaming in the cabin, Li Muyang did almost nothing else.

On the other hand, the relationship between the third young lady of the wild boars and Liu Lian’er was very harmonious.

Liu Lian’er’s natural allure was not only devastating to men but also effective on women.

She easily became close best friends with the third young lady of the wild boars, and they talked about everything.

The simple-minded third young lady was like a toy in front of Liu Lian’er, utterly manipulated by her.

One day, after Li Muyang returned from gathering news in the city and confirmed that no one from the Hehuan Sect Sect Master was pursuing him,

he saw the third young lady and Liu Lian’er sitting on deck chatting.

The two young and beautiful girls sitting together, drinking hot tea and enjoying the warm afternoon breeze, looked extremely comfortable.

—— At this time, the Flying Boat was near the equator, where it was warm beyond compare, a stark contrast to the icy snowy lands in the north.

Upon noticing Li Muyang’s return, the third young lady’s smile immediately diminished a bit, clearly finding Li Muyang an eyesore.

Li Muyang couldn’t be bothered with the foul-mouthed sow and directly ordered the third young lady to start piloting the Flying Boat after she finished her tea, acting as crudely as a heartless capitalist boss.

Once Li Muyang walked away, the third young lady gave him a glare before asking, puzzled,

“Lian’er, why did you choose such a guy to be your Protector? What do you like about him?”

The choice of Li Muyang as the Protector by Liu Lian’er, the sect heir of the Hehuan Sect, had indeed caused a sensation at the time.

Even Li Muyang himself did not know what Liu Lian’er saw in him.

Faced with the third young lady’s curiosity, Liu Lian’er smiled and shook her head with a sigh,

“Choosing a Protector, the most important aspect is suitability, not liking… Status, influence, and potential, these are the key considerations for selecting a Protector.”

“Although many young cultivators in the Cultivation World wish to become the Hehuan Sect sect heir’s Protector, the real choices presented to me were actually not many.”

Liu Lian’er shook her head and said, “The crown prince of the Hidden Moon Dynasty is brutal and inhumane, fond of killing; his court ladies are often favored until he tires of them and then tortured to death,”

“The young master Xiyue of Xiyue Palace has a liking for men, keeps several male lovers in secret, is involved with a particular young prodigy, and dislikes women.”

“The seventh young master of Soul Devouring Valley actually has a decent character. Among the cultivators of the Demon Path, he’s considered quite easy to get along with. However, his mother has a notorious reputation and is extremely partial to this youngest son…”

Liu Lian’er shared with the Third Miss the young elites who attended the Cultivation Conference and analyzed these young geniuses’ various secrets for her to hear.

After hearing the secrets Liu Lian’er shared, the Third Miss widened her eyes: “…So Li Muyang, this guy, is already considered one of the better ones among that group?”

Liu Lian’er gave a wry smile and nodded, saying: “At least Senior Brother Li doesn’t make me feel disgusted. If I had to choose someone to grow old with, I would hope it’s him.”

As she finished speaking, Liu Lian’er glanced at the cabin of the Flying Boat.

In the shadows, Li Muyang, who had been silently listening to everything, now turned to leave.

In this moment, he finally understood why he was chosen in the first place.

——So it’s a competition of who’s less awful!

In this competition of awfulness, he just needed to be an ordinary person, and he’s already winning.

The reason was too abstract, leaving Li Muyang at a loss for words.

And here he thought it was the usual cliché plot, where Liu Lian’er fell for him at first sight… Tsk…

Li Muyang returned to the cabin and re-entered the game.

The gossips of Liu Lian’er and the Third Miss were amusing to him, but he didn’t care about them.

After closing his eyes and entering the game, Li Muyang saw a headless monk blocking the path ahead.

By this time, the carriage had long since left the Corpse Mountain Blood Sea and even killed three night demons along the way.

Now they were heading to the lair of the fourth night demon.

But unexpectedly, the headless monk “Liao Kong” appeared again.

“May Buddha’s compassion be upon you.”

The familiar chant resounded as Miao Fengjun, holding a head, cheerfully appeared: “How has Layman Jie been recently?”

Seeing this old demon show up, Li Muyang, without any hesitation, threw out the black soil he had brought from the Ancestor Spirit Land.

The black soil, contained in a crystal bottle, flew into the headless monk’s hands, and Li Muyang prepared to say goodbye to pursue the next night demon.

The last remaining few night demons actually began to flee for their lives.

They seemed to know that they couldn’t defeat Li Muyang, who wielded the Immortal Artifact, the Seven-Colored Glaze Staff, so they scattered and fled.

The situation where they would wait in one place for Li Muyang to come and kill them, as before, was now gone.

The night demons, once they sensed danger, ran away very quickly.

Li Muyang dared not be careless and must relentlessly pursue them.

But the headless monk cheerfully stopped him and said: “Layman, there’s no need to hurry. There is an important matter that this monk would like to share with the layman.”

The headless monk’s words surprised Li Muyang.

He looked at the old demon before him, puzzled, and asked: “Please enlighten me, Holy Monk.”

The two mortals from the Mortal World continued their charade without saying a word.

The old demon chuckled and said: “The princess behind the layman, her former kingdom now needs her help.”

“If the layman can take her back to her kingdom, perhaps you can achieve what you wish.”

The old demon’s words surprised Li Muyang.

“Allow me to achieve what I wish? May I ask the Holy Monk, what is the junior’s desire?”

I don’t even know what Jie Zijiu, the game’s protagonist’s ultimate mission is, and you, this old demon, actually know it?

But the old demon just let out a chuckle, brought his palms together and said: “Isn’t the layman’s desire to eradicate the evil demons and recover Buddha’s golden body?”

Miao Fengjun’s words instantly stunned Li Muyang.

He didn’t expect this old demon to speak such words… You freaking know that I want to kill you and still you come to help?!

For a moment, Li Muyang felt an extremely absurd sensation rising in his chest.
