Chapter 444 Leaving a trace of my presence
"What are you looking at?"
Gu Yuena watched Ye Nanxiao doodling in a notebook and asked him curiously.
"I'm replying to a message for the demon spirit." Ye Nanxiao turned the notebook in his hand over and showed the reply he had written on it to Gu Yuena.
Gu Yuena glanced at the text above, which read, "Flip a coin twice."
"The message to the demon spirit?" Gu Yuena asked.
Ye Nanxiao nodded and said, "It's too much trouble to go out and explain the situation to him, so I simply made a little gadget to make things easier."
Just as Ye Nanxiao was explaining, the text on the notebook page in his hand kept changing, clearly indicating that the demon spirit was replying to Ye Nanxiao.
However, the frequency of text messages has increased significantly, which suggests that the other party is not in a good mood.
"Hehe! This kid's getting impatient!" Ye Nanxiao closed his notebook and casually placed it on the table next to him.
"Looks like fun!" Na'er peeked out from behind Gu Yuena, her eyes sparkling as if she had found a fun toy.
"Want to play? Here, take this. It was originally prepared for your sister, but it makes no difference whether you give it to her or your sister." Ye Nanxiao took out a pure white notebook from a storage ring and handed it to Gu Yuena.
Na'er is a spiritual entity that Gu Yuena differentiated from, just like Xue Di, and can return to Gu Yuena's body at any time.
Gu Yuena reached out and took the notebook, her eyes filled with a hint of doubt.
Why did Ye Nanxiao give her this little gadget?
If it were to transmit information like a demon spirit, there would be no need for this notebook, since both are located within an underground cave.
"I call this thing the Book of Answers. As the name suggests, it's specifically for answering questions. The demon spirit also has one. He took over my position. Although I taught him, at this stage, he can't solve all problems on his own. I happened to encounter this special soul tool while traveling, so I made two new ones," Ye Nanxiao replied.
"Although I feel I shouldn't leave any traces, we've been friends for quite a while now. The thought of gradually fading all traces of myself from your memories is still a bit hard to bear. This little gadget is perfect, like a collectible. It won't take up too much space or leave any marks, and it'll give me something to remember you by when I occasionally glimpse it."
"Just being a little impulsive, leaving a trace of my presence."
Ye Nanxiao's tone was full of reluctance. Yao Ling was indeed a good friend, although his interests were a bit strange and he was easily emotional and impulsive. Seeing Yao Ling also reminded Ye Nanxiao of Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi, those two rascals who always wanted to sneak into his laboratory to get some toys to play with.
Gu Yuena has a really thick leg, and Ye Nanxiao always thought that one day he could quietly be a pendant on the Silver Dragon King's thick thigh, or even pose like a lucky cat.
"Why do I feel like you're saying goodbye, strategist?" Na'er pouted, somewhat dissatisfied.
Gu Yuena reached out and touched Na'er's face, saying, "The strategist will have to go home one day; he can't stay in the cave with us forever."
Ye Nanxiao chuckled and changed the subject, "Boss, I feel like you've changed recently, you've become more cheerful."
Gu Yuena glanced at Ye Nanxiao, the slight curve of her lips immediately disappearing, and said stiffly, "I haven't changed."
"That's right, a sister is a sister, why would she need to change!" Na'er giggled, pressing her cheek against Gu Yuena's pretty face and rubbing it vigorously.
With Na'er by her side, Gu Yuena's personality was no longer like a block of ice, and she gradually became more talkative.
Ye Nanxiao thought that perhaps it was because of Na'er's special nature that Gu Yuena changed. After all, the person who understands you best is always by your side, and they can understand your every expression and every look in your eyes.
Spending time with someone is also the best way to relieve depression and distress.
Although Gu Yuena still doesn't talk much, Ye Nanxiao can no longer feel the overwhelming pressure emanating from her when she was expressionless.
She's definitely a cool and aloof beauty, although she's still developing in certain areas.
Seemingly noticing Ye Nanxiao's "regretful" gaze, Gu Yuena turned her head and glared at Ye Nanxiao before saying, "Strategist, it seems you have a lot of free time."
"No! Absolutely not!" Ye Nanxiao quickly raised the two pieces of metal in his hand to remind Gu Yuena that he was doing something serious right now!
"Since you have plenty of time, Na'er's calligraphy lesson hasn't started yet today, so you can start teaching her now." Gu Yuena pulled Na'er, who had been watching the commotion, out and placed her in front of Ye Nanxiao.
Na'er: ?
"No! Sister! It's not time for class yet!" Na'er clenched her tiny fists in protest, but she let go in the next moment under Gu Yuena's calm gaze.
After being glared at by Gu Yuena, Na'er obediently waved her hand to pull the desk placed in the corner over, took out paper and pen, and looked at Ye Nanxiao with teary eyes.
My headache is back again today.
Ye Nanxiao covered his head and reluctantly picked up the small blackboard he had made himself.
He is quite talented; he has learned a lot of diverse knowledge, but he simply doesn't like using a blackboard for dry knowledge transmission.
However, Na'er must stay by Gu Yuena's side, a rule that both Ye Nanxiao and Gu Yuena tacitly agree upon.
Before Na'er truly develops her own value judgments, she cannot freely contact the outside world, lest she be discovered by Yuan Haisan, who is always lurking in the distance like a camera, and thus begin to plot against her again.
After handing Na'er over to Ye Nanxiao, Gu Yuena sat cross-legged and entered a meditative state.
Seeing that Na'er was still staring at him with her big, watery eyes, Ye Nanxiao couldn't help but cover his face and say, "My little darling, you've used your charm on the wrong person! We're on the same side!"
Then Ye Nanxiao lowered his voice and said, "Although you're my little boss, your sister is my big boss! How about this, I'll tell you a few fairy tales after class, okay?"
Na'er puffed out her cheeks and said angrily, "Sister won't play with Na'er! The strategist is much better! But you have to tell me more stories! This time I want to hear the story of the Snow Queen and the Black Princess! And the story of the Sea Witch who drove away the little black mermaid that we didn't finish last time!"
"Alright, alright! My little ancestor! We're learning human writing! You can't confiscate dragon script!"
Ye Nanxiao, who originally thought that life in the cave would be unusually peaceful after returning, is now living an exceptionally fulfilling life every day.
I get up in the morning, prepare lessons, and study antique soul tools. I take a short break at noon, then teach Na'er. In the evening, I seize the time to study antique soul tools, coax my little darling, and tell her stories to help her rest.
Only a week had passed.
One day, just as Na'er puffed out her cheeks, Ye Nanxiao, anticipating this, pulled out a magic wand from behind his back and began to coax the little princess.
Ye Nanxiao finally understood that his boss's attitude towards his clone, Na'er, was to hold her when she was calm and not making a fuss, but to hand her over to him to comfort her when she was crying.
"Na'er, as expected, the little darling and the boss are really close." Ye Nanxiao sighed.
"Luckily, I don't have to cook, which saves me some time."
"Strategist! Come quick!" Na'er's shouts rang out.
Ye Nanxiao reluctantly put down the metal in his hand and quickly got up and ran to Na'er, who had broken his toy again.
Gu Yuena, who was meditating cross-legged, slightly opened her eyes and looked at the heartwarming scene before her, a slight smile appearing on her lips.
Starry Sky Forest.
Di Tian sat in the center of the Lake of Life, full of vigor and looking down with a majestic expression at the group of soul beasts kneeling before him. These were the backbone of his organization.
Before a group of soul beasts, four soul beasts knelt on one knee. They were the three kings of Xingdou and Di Tian's bodyguards: Yao Ling, Chi Wang, Wan Yao Wang, and Xiong Jun.
"You are all the important cornerstones of the organization! With you, the organization has an inextinguishable flame that illuminates the stars!" Di Tian delivered his usual inspiring speech to the beasts.
"But beyond the stars, millions of our compatriots are threatened by humanity! Our duty is to save them! To drive out humanity! To restore the world to the feet of us soul beasts!"
After Di Tian finished speaking, all the soul beasts roared and howled in agreement with him.
Looking at the high morale of the Soul Beast Organization's leaders, a smile appeared on Di Tian's face.
Such a grand occasion filled him with great joy.
He foresaw that, with the intelligence gathering of the stealthy king demon spirit and the resource gathering of the ten thousand demon kings, the Crimson King and the Bear King would lead their armies to conquer the four forests, crush humanity, and force them to eke out a living in a corner of the continent.
"Such a grand spectacle is surely what the Lord wants to see! I must work even harder!" Di Tian forcefully raised his right hand, causing the roars from the crowd to rise to another level.
The demon spirit calmly observed everything before him, then reached out and slightly adjusted the mask on his face. This mask was specially knitted for him by Ye Nanxiao. Ye Nanxiao had said that wearing this Kakashi-style mask would make him a man who could go toe-to-toe with a god.
The spirit was overjoyed by this amazing discovery.
And he, too, still remembered Ye Nanxiao despite being subtly brainwashed by Di Tian.
The two fools, Red King and Bear Lord, have long since placed allegiance on Emperor Tian.
The old fox, the Demon King, had already selectively forgotten about Ye Nanxiao when the winds shifted to Di Tian.
"Let him be as arrogant as he wants, the bright moon still shines over the great river. Strategist, your magnanimity is something they could never learn in their entire lives!" the demon spirit exclaimed.
The sudden emergence of the Soul Beast Organization quickly attracted the attention of various countries in human society. In the face of the "Beast God" and the Soul Beast Organization he led, the countries of human society unusually put aside their prejudices and united to fight against the invasion of the Soul Beasts.
In this chaotic world, an academy played a crucial role, standing firm like a pillar of strength in the heart of the continent, single-handedly pushing back the rampaging beast tide.
The chaotic period soon ended, ushering in a brief era of peace.
Spring goes and autumn comes; the general trend is that after a long period of division, there will be unity, and after a long period of unity, there will be division. After peace comes chaos, and after chaos comes peace again.
