The silver-haired wizard, who was always meticulous, looked a little messy at the moment, with a section of hair cut short, and a few cuts in his clothes, and there was a smooth cut on his arm where a broken vine was wrapped around.
Bai Lixin: “……”
He seems to know what had happened, but will pretend not to know.
The silver-haired wizard obviously didn’t expect Bai Lixin to summon him at this moment. He looked around in confusion, then looked at Bai Lixin in front of him, and quickly replaced his confusion with coldness.
The silver-haired wizard grabbed the vine mercilessly and threw it into the corner. Then he tidied his clothes and smoothed out his silver hair strand by strand, his silver eyes staring coldly at Bai Lixin’s neck. “Why not continue calling that dragon? It’s amazing, I never thought that my dear master could still remember my existence.”
As soon as he spoke, it was like a thousand-year-old sauerkraut.
Bai Lixin: “……”
This is really getting out of hand.
“Well, then, I will listen to you.” Bai Lixin said as he reached for the dragon scale on his neck. “Should I call out the Golden Dragon?”
The silver-haired wizard’s face turned red instantly. “Ahem, ahem, that won’t be necessary.”
Are you doing this on purpose? Are you trying to anger me on purpose?
I’ve never felt so humiliated in my life.
Only then did Bai Lixin release his grip on the dragon scale and turned to grab the silver-haired wizard’s sleeve, twisting it and saying, “Take me to the Xihai mansion in the seaside city.”
The silver-haired wizard’s body stiffened instantly, a blush appearing on his cheeks. “Fine, I’ll take you there.”
The escape system marveled: [Was that the original plan?]
S419: [You don’t know about this, Sister System. This is called the art of wooing. After giving him a little whip, then offer him candy. The attacker will be so pleased, he won’t be able to resist.]
Escape System responded thoughtfully: [Oh. Brother, you’ve been getting more useless lately, not being of any use at all.]
S419: [???]
The escape system continued: [But even if you’re useless, I still love you. Have I learned the essence of the art of wooing?]
Bai Lixin: [Hahaha.]
S419: [……]
What could it do with his Sister System except dote on it?
The silver-haired wizard straightened his back, took out his magic wand and drew a circle in the air, opening a teleportation array.
Bai Lixin stood silently by the side, watching the silver-haired wizard’s movements. It had to be said that the silver-haired wizard was really pleasing to the eye with every move he makes.
Among the three attackers in this world, if the silver-haired wizard was an elegant snow capped mountain aristocrat with a reserved and deep personality, then the sea monster was an enthusiastic and unrestrained young elf.
As for the golden dragon, it was undoubtedly an experienced and battle-hardened general on the battlefield.
Each one had their own good qualities.
Bai Lixin was silently comparing the three attackers in his mind when suddenly he felt a cold and icy gaze fall on him.
He blinked for a moment, then looked up to see the silver-haired wizard frowning at him. “Are you blushing?!”
“…” Bai Lixin: “No, let’s hurry and go!”
In the live broadcast room.
[Silver-haired Wizard: Are you there?]
[God Xin: I’m here for you three.]
[Haha, I suddenly feel like God Xin is so cute. What’s going on? He seems to be focused on serious matters but suddenly went off track.]
[God Xin: Yeah, it happens, can’t control it.]
[“Can’t Control.”]
[Well, this is love.]
[But why did God Xin stop investigating? Could it be that the intruder is not here?]
[I checked carefully, the intruder is likely Miss Xihai. Think about it, she’s Miu Miu’s mother now. With Miu Miu around, isn’t she invincible? Is there anything safer than being with Miu Miu?]
[Yeah, seems like it! Prince Mia also said they have all seen Miss Xihai. Oh my god, this intruder is so powerful, if it wasn’t God Xin’s live broadcast, I would actually hope Miss Xihai would win, she’s so badass.]
[So this intruder already knew about Miu Miu’s existence and that this is Miu Miu’s dream. It’s terrifying to think about it, could this intruder be playing a game?]
[Even if it’s a game, it shouldn’t be this intense, could it be out of the game organizers’ control?]
[…You scared me.]
[Me too…I’m trembling a bit.]
[Suddenly, I feel a conspiracy theory.]
[What if it’s not a conspiracy, but…]
[Let’s not talk about it, what if the screen goes black again, every time we talk about this, the screen goes black, so annoying.]
[…]
—————-
One day later, Bai Lixin came to Miss Xihai again.
The sunflowers in the courtyard were in full bloom, even though it was now late at night. From here, the sea and the earth were pitch black, but the sunflowers in this courtyard not only did not fade in color, but the orange to golden petals also twinkled with a faint light, illuminating the night sky like small suns.
——“When the sun and the moon align, the world will burst with colors.”
Bai Lixin repeated this sentence in his mind as he looked at the sunflowers in the courtyard, then he heard a soft cry.
“Mother.”
Bai Lixin approached the window and peeked inside. He saw Miu Miu holding a drawing and showing it to Miss Xihai, who was wearing an apron. Miss Xihai’s face had once again changed, and now she looked even more like Miu Miu.
The self-protection of the intruder was just like cancer cells.
During the immune system’s surveillance for attacks, some cancer cells can mimic the modifications of normal cells, even using certain immune cells to protect themselves in reverse.
Miss Xihai was now doing the same as those terrifying cells.
Bai Lixin has always thought that the reason for Miss Xihai’s tail changing color when she was solely because of Miu Miu’s influence. But what if it’s not just that?
What if Miss Xihai deliberately tried to get closer to the little girl from the very beginning in order to gain recognition as Miu Miu’s “mother”?
In the window, Miu Miu raised a piece of paper.
On the paper, there were two figures, one big and one small, both women with long hair. They were holding hands, with simple smiles drawn with a few strokes on their faces. There was grass under their feet, and a small house emitting smoke in the distance. The grass was also adorned with countless sunflower patterns.
A sunflower bloomed in the sky, becoming the sun.
Miss Xihai gently stroked Miu Miu’s hair, and Miu Miu smiled shyly with a happy expression on her face that she had never had before.
Although he didn’t want to disturb Miu Miu in this state, Bai Lixin still knocked on the window.
The sound of knocking quickly caught the attention of the two people in the house, and in an instant, Miss Xihai’s previously loving expression turned cold.
However, Miss Xihai’s change did not escape Miu Miu’s notice. When she saw Bai Lixin at the window, her eyes lit up with excitement, and she pointed at Bai Lixin and shouted, “Mother, it’s big brother! He’s here, let him in quickly.”
Miss Xihai glanced at Bai Lixin vigilantly, but still walked to the door and opened it.
She already knew in her heart why he would appear here.
And he already knew her identity very well.
But there was an absolute bug between him and her – Miu Miu.
The silver-haired wizard followed Bai Lixin into the room, and Miss Xihai glared at them before reluctantly closing the door.
Inside the room, it was arranged almost exactly like the room in Miu Miu’s memory, except that the people in the photos had changed from her father and stepmother to Miu Miu and Miss Xihai.
“Big brother!” Miu Miu rushed forward and hugged Bai Lixin’s leg. “I thought I would never see you again.”
Seeing Miu Miu’s action, Miss Xihai quickly came over and pulled her away, holding her in her arms. “Miu Miu, even if big brother is close to us, he is still a boy. It’s not appropriate for you to act like this. Come to mother’s embrace.”
Miu Miu had fully accepted the setting that Miss Xihai was her mother, and she obediently nestled in Miss Xihai’s embrace. She stuck her tongue out at Bai Lixin and said, “Mother, this is big brother, it’s not inappropriate. Don’t you remember? If it wasn’t for big brother, we would have been finished long ago. Thank you, big brother, for helping back then. Without you, I would probably be…”
Miu Miu’s voice abruptly stopped.
Bai Lixin knew she was probably going to say “dead,” but she was reluctant to say it out loud.
“Who is this big brother?” Miu Miu looked curiously at the silver-haired wizard standing beside Bai Lixin, with her emerald green eyes shining.
Bai Lixin glanced at the silver-haired wizard, who suddenly became inexplicably nervous, and smiled. “He is someone very important to me.”
Miu Miu tilted her head and looked earnestly at the silver-haired wizard’s face, and suddenly said something that left Bai Lixin stunned: “I seem to have seen him somewhere.”
Bai Lixin asked cautiously, “You have met before, when you were at the Mermaid Palace.”
Miu Miu shook her head. “No, no, that was just a glance, I didn’t pay much attention. And we were far away, so I only noticed you. It’s not until today that I really looked at this big brother’s face.”
“How strange, clearly we’ve met before, but it feels like we’ve seen each other somewhere else.”
“Where could it be?”
Miu Miu covered her head, looking uncomfortable.
Although Bai Lixin’s face remained unchanged, doubt rose in his heart.
According to Miu Miu’s words, she should have seen Dijia before, but when and where did they meet?
Was Miu Miu really a human? Was she just an ordinary little girl?
How could an ordinary little girl possess such great power to create a time cage and invade the fairytale world, causing headaches for even the game?
And who was playing the role of this invader?
Was this really just a simple copy task?
The invader wants to completely darken the fairytale world, but once the it is completely darkened, it means Miu Miu is dead in her real world.
In other words, the invader may be after Miu Miu’s life.
Is it worth all the trouble to go after the life of a little girl?
Unless this little girl has a hidden secret.
Moreover, this invader seems to have a god’s eye view, appearing here in the most suitable identity when no one knew about Miu Miu’s existence.
Perhaps she came here for Miu Miu from the very beginning.
Countless waves surged in Bai Lixin’s mind as he raised his head, his eyes sharp as he looked at Miss Xihai, who was holding Miu Miu.
Miss Xihai also sensed this killing intent, and she raised her head with unabashed malice and amusement in her eyes.
Two strands of killing intent clashed fiercely in the air, scattering the papers on the table and the photo albums on the wall clattered against the wall.
Miss Xihai sneered, lowered her head and comforted Miu Miu, “Miu Miu, don’t worry too much. Your headache is so severe that even Mother feels heartache. Mother will give you a massage.”
Kill me? Then first get past Miu Miu. Can you?
Her slender hand fell on Miu Miu’s temple, and Miu Miu immediately sighed in relief, “Thank you, Mother.”
She weakly snuggled in Miss Xihai’s arms and looked at Bai Lixin, “Brother, will you stay for dinner?”
“Yes,” Miss Xihai added, “since you are already here, stay for dinner before leaving.”
We won’t let you stay overnight. Eat your meal and leave quickly.
Bai Lixin scanned Miss Xihai and Miu Miu with his eyes, “Alright, since we’re here, it would be impolite not to taste Miss Xihai’s cooking during this visit.”
If I don’t kill you, how can I bear to leave?
The gazes of the two clashed again, and a small typhoon seemed to blow up in the room.
Miu Miu was frightened and turned pale, “W-What’s going on? Why did such a strong wind suddenly come up? Did we not close the windows tightly?”
Bai Lixin withdrew his gaze and stood up from the sofa, “Let me go and check, wait here.”
A few minutes later, Bai Lixin came back, “The windows were indeed not closed tightly, but I’ve closed them now.”
Miu Miu said, “Ah, I knew it. How could such a strong wind suddenly come up?”
Bai Lixin reached out towards Miu Miu, “Miu Miu, is Mother going to cook? How about I help you with your homework? Don’t worry, brother is good at studying. Let’s not disturb Mother from cooking, okay?”
Miss Xihai immediately pulled Miu Miu back, “How can we trouble you? I can help Miu Miu with her homework. And Miu Miu is very sensible, she can help me in the kitchen and won’t give me any trouble.”
Separate us? Not even by a door.
Miu Miu looked hesitantly at Miss Xihai and Bai Lixin.
Not sure if it’s an illusion, but she always feels like Mother and brother are going to fight.
Bai Lixin looked somewhat embarrassed as he spoke to Miu Miu, “Miu Miu, but brother will be lonely without you.”
After hesitating for a few seconds, Miu Miu timidly tugged at Miss Xihai’s clothes, “Mother, brother will be lonely and pitiful if I go with you. Should I go and accompany him?”
Miss Xihai was so angry and she took a deep breath to calm down, “Fine, but you must stick with your brother and not let him get lost!”
The silver-haired wizard, who was always meticulous, looked a little messy at the moment, with a section of hair cut short, and a few cuts in his clothes, and there was a smooth cut on his arm where a broken vine was wrapped around.
Bai Lixin: “……”
He seems to know what had happened, but will pretend not to know.
The silver-haired wizard obviously didn’t expect Bai Lixin to summon him at this moment. He looked around in confusion, then looked at Bai Lixin in front of him, and quickly replaced his confusion with coldness.
The silver-haired wizard grabbed the vine mercilessly and threw it into the corner. Then he tidied his clothes and smoothed out his silver hair strand by strand, his silver eyes staring coldly at Bai Lixin’s neck. “Why not continue calling that dragon? It’s amazing, I never thought that my dear master could still remember my existence.”
As soon as he spoke, it was like a thousand-year-old sauerkraut.

This is really getting out of hand.
“Well, then, I will listen to you.” Bai Lixin said as he reached for the dragon scale on his neck. “Should I call out the Golden Dragon?”
The silver-haired wizard’s face turned red instantly. “Ahem, ahem, that won’t be necessary.”
Are you doing this on purpose? Are you trying to anger me on purpose?
I’ve never felt so humiliated in my life.
Only then did Bai Lixin release his grip on the dragon scale and turned to grab the silver-haired wizard’s sleeve, twisting it and saying, “Take me to the Xihai mansion in the seaside city.”
The silver-haired wizard’s body stiffened instantly, a blush appearing on his cheeks. “Fine, I’ll take you there.”
The escape system marveled: [Was that the original plan?]
S419: [You don’t know about this, Sister System. This is called the art of wooing. After giving him a little whip, then offer him candy. The attacker will be so pleased, he won’t be able to resist.]

“…” Bai Lixin: “No, let’s hurry and go!”
In the live broadcast room.
[Silver-haired Wizard: Are you there?]
[God Xin: I’m here for you three.]
[Haha, I suddenly feel like God Xin is so cute. What’s going on? He seems to be focused on serious matters but suddenly went off track.]
[God Xin: Yeah, it happens, can’t control it.]
[“Can’t Control.”]
[Well, this is love.]
[But why did God Xin stop investigating? Could it be that the intruder is not here?]
[I checked carefully, the intruder is likely Miss Xihai. Think about it, she’s Miu Miu’s mother now. With Miu Miu around, isn’t she invincible? Is there anything safer than being with Miu Miu?]
