Chapter 34 [034] No need to clarify

Shi Qing was about to knock on the door when he suddenly heard the inner thoughts coming from inside.

[I’ve been here for three days and daddy hasn’t come to see me. Is he really ignoring me...QAQ]

[Host, don't feel too bad. He is not your real daddy. Just complete your mission now. After you and the male protagonist have a happy ending, you can go home to find your real daddy.]

Chen Xiang: [TAT is still very sad...]

Her daddy in real life would satisfy her no matter how willful and rude her requests were, as if he was afraid of owing her anything.

He also said that she was heaven and earth, and his only princess.

But the daddy in this world seemed to be ahead of her in everything, which made the girl feel very unfair.

[If that's the case, then don't let him touch my daddy's face! You said at the beginning that you did it to make me feel more involved, but now I don't want to feel involved! Otherwise, if I really get involved, I will get depressed. ]

System: […This cannot be changed.]

Chen Xiang: [Ahhh, this is so annoying!!!]

[It's okay, host! You can turn your anger into motivation! Conquer the hero as soon as possible, complete the mission as soon as possible! Then you can go home earlier! ]

As soon as these words came out, the girl seemed to be rekindled with fighting spirit. She jumped up from the bed, walked to the door, pushed it open, and nodded: [That's right! Okay! Let's go to Baicao Pavilion to find the hero today! ]

Then--

He bumped into Shi Qing who was "eavesdropping" at the door accidentally: "..."

As soon as Chen Xiang saw her, he thought of the biased head daddy and became furious.

With a cold snort, Bai Shiqing glanced at him and was about to leave.

But the next second—

Shi Qing grabbed her collar.

Chen Xiang: “What, what are you doing?!”

The girl had a faint fragrance mixed with the smell of medicinal herbs, which was very comfortable and pleasant. Shen Xiang smelled it immediately when he was pulled back.

It was the first time she saw Shi Qing wearing a long robe with her hair casually draped over her shoulders.

Shen Xiang's face suddenly turned red, but she didn't want to show it in front of Shi Qing, so she turned her head away and didn't look at her.

"Where are you going?" Shi Qing's voice was cold and calm.

Shen Xiang shook his head wildly and struggled to get rid of her hand, "It's none of your business where I go!"

Shi Qing actually knew that she wanted to go to Baicao Pavilion to find Zhongli Jin, so he just asked symbolically, and then said: "Zhongli Jin, now, is not happy."

From the time we met last night to the time we ran into each other this morning, the boy seemed to have a gloomy face the whole time.

Now that the junior sister has gone there, I wonder if the young man will vent his anger on her. After all, she is the one who is truly married to him.

"Unhappy?" Chen Xiang's eyes lit up - isn't this just right? ?

The unhappy male protagonist needs the sunny and cute female protagonist who is like a little sun to shine on him!

Chen Xiang immediately ran to the immortal boat, got on it, injected spiritual power and said, "Go to the Baicao Pavilion on Jinping Peak."

Shi Qing: “…”

*
After the junior sister left, Shi Qing went back to his room and changed his clothes.

The robe was a bit restrictive for her.

It is much more convenient to move around after changing back to a short dress.

Cangying said that she couldn't mobilize her spiritual power for the time being, which meant that she could only stay in the Sanqing Blessed Land for the next few days and couldn't practice sword, meditate, or regulate her breathing.

Shi Qing sat on the steps of the Sanqing Blessed Land, looking at the sky quietly.

After a while, a handsome man in green clothes came riding a sword and slowly landed in front of her.

"Master." Shi Qing stood up and bowed to the man.

Shi Yue could tell at a glance that something was wrong with her body and frowned slightly: "Why is she so seriously injured?"

The man smelled the scent of medicinal bath on her body. Only if her roots were damaged would Baicao Pavilion arrange a medicinal bath.

Shi Qing said: "Break through the third layer."

In order to break the third layer.

Shi Yue was startled, "Third floor?"

Then he seemed to have thought of something, his expression became helpless, and he sighed: "Well, I didn't expect that you would remember it all the time."

At that time, Shi Qing was still young and lived with his parents in a village in the mortal world.

They could have lived a peaceful life forever, but one day, the devil came with a large number of monsters and slaughtered many towns and villages on earth.

Shi Qing was hidden under the bed by his parents and witnessed with his own eyes that they were brutally killed by the evil cultivators. Their bodies were gnawed by a group of monsters until only bones were left, and they even kicked their skulls for fun.

Normally, a child that young would faint from fear if he witnessed this.

Shi Qing, however, was lying under the bed, watching everything quietly.

The scent of children was strong, and the monsters knew there was someone hiding under the bed. They liked to listen to the cries of children, and then cut them up and eat them.

Shi Qing was dragged out by the collar, but he didn't cry or make a fuss. His pair of brown eyes just stared at the monster calmly.

Shi Yue rescued her at that time, thinking that the girl was frightened and so lay motionless like a puppet.

Now that I think about it, she was probably taking note of the appearance of these monsters.

Most of the monsters were killed, and the remaining ones tried to escape, but they were all sucked into the Wind and Thunder Tower and locked in, and have been imprisoned on the third floor for all these years.

There is also a demon cultivator leading the team, one of whom is still imprisoned on the fifth floor of the Wind and Thunder Tower.

No wonder Shi Qing has been grinding the Wind and Thunder Tower all these years. She probably wanted to grind all the way to the fifth floor and avenge her parents.

Shi Yue reached out and rubbed Shi Qing's head. "There is one more thing. I didn't expect that for so many years everyone had misunderstood that you and Zhong Lijin were married. It was my fault for not realizing it earlier, causing you to be misunderstood for so long in vain."

——Even Zhongli Zhen recognized the wrong person.

When Shi Yue heard the man say that he agreed to the marriage, she was happy for a long time. She thought that Sect Leader Zhongli was willing to help her daughter, but it turned out that the man was interested in Shi Qing.

It is said that the daughter of the head of Sanqing Mountain canceled the engagement of Zhongli Jin, a former genius cultivator of Xuanxiao Sect.

Shi Yue was busy apologizing and repairing his relationship with Zhong Li Zhen at the time, and did not think about it as a misunderstanding. After all, it was indeed Shi Qing who went to Xuan Xiao Sect to ask Zhong Li Jin to cancel the engagement. However, he forgot that in the eyes of others, they would definitely think that Shi Qing and Zhong Li Jin were getting married.

Later, he went around looking for medicinal herbs to help Zhongli Jin repair his spiritual roots, and naturally he didn't pay too much attention to those rumors about cultivation.

"I will help you clarify this matter, and bring that little girl Shi Xiang along with me... Speaking of which, where is she?"

Shi Yue hasn't seen her since the quarrel three days ago. Even if he wanted to chat, the girl was unwilling to talk to him.

Helplessly, he had to take care of the sect affairs first and come to see her after they were over.

Shi Qing said: "Baicao Pavilion."

Went to Baicao Pavilion.

"What was she doing in Baicao Pavilion? Was she feeling unwell?" Shi Yue asked.

Shi Qing shook his head: "Zhongli Jin."

Shi Yue was stunned: "...she went to look for Zhong Lijin?"

Is he also apologizing for breaking off the engagement earlier?

Seeing the look in the man's eyes, Shi Qing probably guessed what her master was thinking, so she said, "Well, she likes Zhongli Jin."

Although I couldn't understand what Junior Sister and that thing called system were talking about, I could roughly guess it.

The junior sister must have fallen in love with Zhongli Jin again and wants to be with the young man.

Shi Yue: “…”

She was so happy when she first found out about the engagement, but she immediately called it off when she saw that the guy was useless! Now she likes him again?? What on earth does that little bitch mean?!

"So," Shi Qing said quietly, "No need to clarify." There is no need to clarify the misunderstanding.

If the matter was clarified, the junior sister would be exposed to everyone, and Zhongli Jin might also have a grudge against the girl because of the previous broken engagement.

Since she likes Zhongli Jin now, there is no need to clarify it.

"No," Shi Yue looked disapproving, "In this case, what about you? Are you just going to let people misunderstand you for nothing?"

Shi Qing blinked, looked away slightly, and stared at the head of the sect, Shi Yue: "It doesn't matter."

She really doesn't care.

Shi Qing never cares about other people's opinions or rumors. Hurtful words will only hurt the people you care about.

But she doesn't care, and sometimes even doesn't understand why anyone would care about what others say.

After all, my mission in this life is to eliminate demons and protect the law. The reputation before and after my death is as vague as clouds, without any waves or disturbances. There is no need to worry about it.

"You--" Shi Yue had a complicated expression, and he looked at Shi Qing deeply with his peach blossom eyes, wanting to say something else.

But seeing that his disciple's eyes were calm and serious, a snow-white bandage was quietly wrapped around his wrist, and he rubbed him as if acting coquettishly. Shi Yue had thousands of words to say, but in the end it all turned into a sigh.

The man reached out and touched the bandage, as if responding to a spoiled little snake, and said helplessly: "I know you don't care about these... but - after all, it's your innocence and your reputation."

"Master," Shi Qing changed the subject: "I'm taking a break."

She is going back to rest.

Shi Yue nodded, his voice tired: "Go, Shi Xiang, that little girl, is spoiled after all, I am sorry for you as your teacher."

"Cangying said, I was wrong." Shi Qing said, "Say, I love you."

Cangying said that Shi Xiang became like this because of her spoiling him.

No matter what happens, she is the one who cleans up the mess.

But Shi Qing didn't feel that she was pampering Shi Xiang.

She was just fulfilling her duty as a senior sister to protect her junior sister at all costs.

The junior sister was brought back from the foot of the mountain by the master two years after I came to Sanqing Mountain.

Although he claimed to be his biological daughter, the two actually had no blood relationship. Shi Xiang's parents were also cultivators, but they died in a confrontation with evil cultivators. Before their death, they entrusted their daughter A Xiang to Shi Yue.

The man would not hide anything from Shi Qing. As early as when he took Shi Xiang to the mountain, he explained to the girl the origin of his biological daughter, for fear that Shi Qing would be jealous and unhappy.

However, the man might not have expected that Shi Qing was not jealous of his junior sister.

On the contrary, in this originally deserted Sanqing blessed land where only Shi Qing and Shi Yue lived, the arrival of junior sister Shi Xiang finally brought life here.

Shi Qing practiced swordplay every day, and her junior sister played in the mud beside her.

The junior sister is weak.

Ask her to protect.

So Shi Qing had to become stronger, very strong, to avenge his parents and his junior sister's parents.

Sanqing Blessed Land is her second home.

Sometimes I go to school at home, sometimes I go to school.

Chen Xiang jumped off the fairy boat and was about to run happily to find Zhongli Jin.

But suddenly she stopped and remembered something: [Tongzi, now everyone knows that it was the original owner who got married, right? ]

[…You could say that.]

Chen Xiang: [Is there no prop that can make everyone lose their memory? ? ]

【……No. 】

Realizing this problem, Shen Xiang felt that his strategy might be more difficult.

[Ah? ? What should I do now? Since they know that I am the one who got married, then I must be the one to cancel the engagement! I have to find the male lead and apologize first? ]

The system suddenly smiled in an ambiguous manner and said, [No need, host.]

Chen Xiang: [? ]

[It's very simple. Since everyone has misunderstood that it was Shi Qing who got married in the first place, then you can pretend to be her. She is a vicious female supporting role anyway, so it doesn't matter if there is one more dirty trick. You can directly tell the male protagonist that Shi Qing came to cancel the engagement on her own accord, because she also misunderstood that it was her engagement with the male protagonist, so she canceled the engagement. In this way, the male protagonist will still hate Shi Qing, but not you.]

The method the system proposed is indeed good, because a large-scale clarification has not yet begun.

She still has a chance.

But this method... sounds too detrimental.

When she first came, Shen Xiang might have agreed.

Now, she was not willing to slander Shi Qing in this way.

[What are you keeping silent about?] The system urged, its voice slightly cold: [Do you still want to go home? If you do, do as I say. I am your system. I exist to assist you in completing your mission. I will not harm you, host.]

Shen Xiang gritted his teeth slightly, feeling depressed, and did not respond yet.

Seeing this, the system sighed again and said: [I know that the host is actually not a bad person and does not like to slander others for no reason, but host, you don’t have to worry. This is just a novel world. You are just here to complete a mission. Everyone here is a paper person and does not exist in reality. Even if you kill people and set fires here and do all kinds of evil, when you return to the real world, you are still the charming princess who is pampered by your rich CEO daddy. What is there to be afraid of? ]

reality.

Come back home.

Her favorite CEO daddy.

Shen Xiang took a deep breath, raised his head again, as if he had finally figured it out, and said: [Okay, the world is big, and the mission is the biggest! ]

[Long live! Host! Come on!!] The system's voice finally jumped up in excitement.

Shen Xiang entered the Baicao Pavilion. The disciples were all conscientiously refining pills, and they would not be disturbed during this period.

She walked around inside and didn't see Zhong Li Jin. After thinking for a while, she went to the second floor.

As a result, there was no sign of the boy on the second floor.

Just at this moment, someone came down from the third floor. Shen Xiang jumped onto the stone platform and asked the female disciple, "Senior sister, where is Junior Brother Zhongli?"

She pretended to have an innocent and cute smile, after all, that was the heroine's character.

The female disciple smiled and responded when she saw her junior sister, "Junior Brother Zhongli? He went to Yuhua Peak. The training in the Monster Secret Realm has just ended. The elders and disciples of other sects are preparing to return. He probably went to say goodbye to his father and senior brothers and sisters."

Chen Xiang: "Thank you, Senior Sister!~"

She said this with a smile, then turned and ran towards her little fairy boat.

[It's a wasted trip, damn! I have to go to Yuhua Peak again! I hope I don't miss the male lead again this time. ]

Shen Xiang boarded the fairy boat and lay inside, looking at the sky.

As long as she didn't look down, her fear of heights would be much better. The immortal boat was not moving fast, and if it increased the speed a little, Shen Xiang would still be afraid.

The weather is nice today, the sky is blue with white clouds, and the breeze blows over the mountains, making it very refreshing and comfortable.

Somehow, she suddenly thought of the first time she was held in Shi Qing's arms and flew a sword at the foot of the mountain.

I was almost scared to death at that time, but after the panic, when I really recalled that time, I felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity and peace of mind.

——The peace of mind that comes from Shi Qing’s embrace.

　For Shi Qing, Sanqing Blessed Land is her home, and Shi Xiang and Shi Yue are her new family members, so she must work hard to become stronger and protect them.

　　If her family members like or need something she doesn't care about, she won't mind taking it. But if that thing may pose a danger to her family members, she will not give it to them or will stop them - for example, not letting Shi Xiang go to the Monster Secret Realm.

　　Shi Xiang is still being fooled by the system and has amnesia. Everything will be fine once her memory is restored. Hahaha. After all, she is the protagonist's biggest love rival in his life.

　　——Fourteen-year-old Zhongli Jin.

　　——Shi Xiang who lost her memory.

　　Two troublemakers.
