Chapter 146: Little Yuli is having an episode again
Once again, the white-haired loli had tricked him!
At this moment, Luo Wusheng’s mind was occupied by this single thought.
Not long ago, just before the present moment began, he was still entangled in a fierce battle on the chessboard with Yue Xuanji.
He had to admit that this white-haired loli was even more terrifyingly talented than his junior sister.
When facing Bai Xiaoyao, at least during the first day, he was able to win.
But when his opponent changed to the tower master of the Heavenly Divination Tower, by the second game, she had already completely grasped the essence of the game, even playing more cunningly than him…
Could it really be that someone who mastered the secrets of heaven was this extraordinary?
Luo Wusheng refused to believe it.
He recalled how, after asking a few questions, the girl’s answers seemed to be as if she hadn’t answered at all.
He also thought about how, based on her performance, the event that would give him good luck should not have arrived so soon.
Resolutely, he decided to win the current game first before thinking further.
So, he set aside his distracting thoughts and continued to struggle with Yue Xuanji on the chessboard, waiting for the opportunity to secure his victory.
Just when he finally saw a glimmer of hope and felt the advantage swinging back in his favor, the white-haired loli suddenly tossed her chess piece aside.
His first reaction was that she was about to surrender.
However, the only words he heard from her were four:
“The time has come.”
Seeing the smile on the white-haired loli’s face and feeling the jade slip in his arms emitting a radiant light, Luo Wusheng instantly understood what she meant.
Noon had arrived…
No, that’s not right.
It was the moment when his tense and thrilling good fortune was finally due.
Unbeknownst to him, half an hour had quietly passed.
Luo Wusheng’s thoughts instantly returned from the chessboard.
Looking at the expression on the little girl’s face across from him, he felt a bit puzzled.
Based on Yue Xuanji’s earlier behavior, wasn’t his good fortune supposed to take longer to arrive?
Could it be that she just found an excuse not to continue playing when she saw he was about to win?
But then again, he was indeed curious about what Yue Xuanji had hidden in the jade slip, so he immediately picked it up to take a look.
The jade slip emitted a blue light, and the hazy seal on it slightly loosened.
In the next moment, Luo Wusheng felt a blur before his eyes, and his figure disappeared from where he stood, reappearing in a new room.
‘What’s going on? Did the jade slip’s mechanism activate? The method she prepared for me is a teleportation?’
As thoughts swirled in his mind, Luo Wusheng quickly assessed his surroundings.
The new room had a faint hint of sandalwood incense, but it wasn’t filled with smoke like Yue Xuanji’s room.
The decor was simple, with just ordinary tables and chairs, giving the impression of a plain guest room.
If there was anything unusual, it was that the doors and windows around him were securely locked, with familiar spiritual patterns glowing on them…
Hmm?
Luo Wusheng suddenly realized something and slowly turned his head.
His gaze met another pair of eyes, filled with shock.
In the next instant, the shock in those eyes gradually faded, replaced by a bewildering confusion.
Then, as the color drained from those eyes, they began to shine with a mysterious light.
As they reflected Luo Wusheng’s image, it seemed as though stars began to twinkle in those eyes.
At that moment, something seemed to fall to the ground, producing a clear, crisp sound.
The eyes became even more beautiful… No, the girl opposite him had transformed entirely.
With skin like jade and features as delicate as a painting, the girl who had now revealed her breathtaking beauty was filled with joy.
She rose gracefully from the bed, trying to contain her excitement as she approached Luo Wusheng step by step.
Her initial steps were hesitant, but after two steps, all traces of reluctance and awkwardness vanished.
Luo Wusheng quickly felt a soft embrace, and the girl in his arms whispered sweetly, “Luo Lang~”
Hiss—
If he couldn’t understand what was happening before him now, then all those times he had seen the Sword Fairy’s episode in the original story would have been in vain.
Feeling the girl’s restless hands wrapping around him and the undeniable presence of her overwhelming emotions, Luo Wusheng was truly at a loss.
Was this the first step in Yue Xuanji’s plan to bestow good fortune upon him?
Looking at Lu Yuli, the girl in his arms, Luo Wusheng’s expression grew complex.
When he had seen that Lu Yuli had checked into the Wandering Immortal Inn earlier, he had a hunch that today he would probably end up entangled with this girl.
But he hadn’t expected… or rather, he had refused to believe that the Sword Fairy would relapse today and appear before him in this state.
In the original story, this was truly the first time the main heroine had an episode!
Even though her ice-cold beauty of a master hadn’t made it in time, weren’t there other members of the harem in the royal city? Why had this situation been pushed onto him again?
Could it be that he really had the makings of a harem protagonist?
Moreover, why had he been directly teleported here by that white-haired loli, who seemed to be part of the protagonist’s harem?
This isn’t right, is it?
His thoughts were in utter chaos, but the girl in his arms, who had lost all rationality, couldn’t comprehend the complexities in his mind.
“Luo Lang? Why aren’t you paying attention to me? Do you not love me anymore?”
The girl gently lifted her head, her large, watery eyes blinking as if tears were about to gather, exuding a pitiful expression.
Luo Wusheng felt that if he didn’t respond to her, she would probably start crying the next moment.
So, he forced himself to push his thoughts aside, showing a calm smile.
He gently patted the girl’s head and shook his head slightly.
“How could that be? I was simply mesmerized by your celestial beauty and momentarily lost in thought.”
The easily pacified girl blushed immediately, looking a bit embarrassed as she said, “I-is that really so?”
“Of course.”
Luo Wusheng’s tone was natural, without a trace of deceit.
Seeing the girl’s expression change from cloudy to clear, he breathed a sigh of relief.
His words weren’t entirely false; although it was the second time he had seen Lu Yuli reveal her true appearance, the contrast in her appearance still left him amazed.
Especially with her stunning face so close, the softness he felt from their contact was so enchanting…
However, this being the second time he had encountered such a situation, and having experienced it before, Luo Wusheng wasn’t about to lose his composure so easily.
Moreover, the situation this time was far more complicated than the last.
Taking advantage of Lu Yuli’s enjoyment of his caresses, without making any sudden moves, Luo Wusheng quietly extended his spiritual awareness toward his other hand, which held the jade slip given to him by Yue Xuanji.
