The Otherworldly Adventures of a Super Naive Girl

Chapter 497-498: Kill Her!; Two People As Canon Fodder

497: Kill Her!

Ming Xi had been ashamed of the owner of the notebook when he saw it. The crime began with the nobleman who used his power to oppress the lower class. Although the dollmaker began as an innocent party in all of it, he became guilty when he used the skin and flesh of children to make the doll. No one forced him to do it so the moment he did, he could no longer be considered an innocent party.

Ming Xi had no sympathy for this kind of person; it didnt matter how much regret the person had afterwards.

A person like me doesnt deserve sympathy. I should have resolved myself to my fate, but instead, in order to survive, I chose to commit a grave sin against the children.

His eyes were filled with remorse and it was clear how much he regretted the harm he had done. Originally, he thought he could atone for his sins with his death. It wasnt until after he died that he realized redemption wasnt so easy to get.

The children hated him and kept him imprisoned in the mansion. He couldnt leave, couldnt reincarnate. He could only suffer endless torment every day.

For over a thousand years now, he had watched as countless people had their souls imprisoned in the mansion after being killed by the children.

At this point, he didnt know how many souls were captive inside the mansion. The other souls thought about leaving everyday, however, they were stuck just like him.

The children had a strong hostility towards adults, especially men. The reason, the culprit, was of course him. He should never have been born. . . 

What are you doing out? The little girl was unhappy at having her game interrupted.

She didnt just want to play with them; she wanted to put them into the dolls. That way they could stay with her forever.

Miss, stop hurting people. Please let them go. The man cautiously spoke up.

It wasnt that he was being kindly and wanted the adventurers to escape; it was just that he had an ominous premonition from the group, especially the one with the golden hair. That guy gave him a terrifying feeling. If it didnt come from personal power, then it definitely came from blood lineage.

He did not want to mess with a human with such strong bloodline. Plus, he did feel guilty about the young miss. He had turned a nave, willful child into a devil and had caused her misfortune. In order to make up for it, he didnt want her to provoke someone she shouldnt provoke.

Letting the group go was for her own good. If the group wasnt released, and if something happened to the golden-haired person, then the young miss would definitely suffer in the future.

Unfortunately, the little girl did not understand his kind intentions. She pouted unhappily. Mind your own business you rotten scumbag.

She waved her hand and the mans spirit slammed into the wall.

Spirits were intangible and should not have been hurt from physical impact. But unexpectedly, when he slammed into the wall, he suffered a serious injury.

His already weak coloring dimmed even more to almost nothing. He looked even weaker now.

The little girl muttered, Busybody, before turning away and ignoring him. She looked at Ming Xi and the others with great interest. Now its your turn. All of you have to stay and play with me.

She hugged her doll with one arm and flapped her other happily. Her chubby face was indescribably cute. It was just that no one was in the mood to appreciate it. Her cute face was in fact as terrifying as a demon to them.

Lets play Ghost Catching People. Anyone caught by the ghost will become a ghost too. The little girl giggled happily. Im going to be the ghost so you have to be careful now.

She disappeared as soon as she said that. When she reappeared, it was in the middle of Caesars team as she tapped a young man.

Ah! He screamed in panic. It was too late to run and he quickly turned into an ice sculpture.

Go and stay in the painting. The little girl waved her hand and an icy, cold wind formed in the room. A shadow appeared in the air and then floated to the wall where a frame was slowly forming. As the shadow entered the frame, an image gradually took shape. It was the young man who had just been tapped by the little girl!

Loufman! Those familiar with the deceased cried out in sorrow. Their hearts were dominated with hatred and unwillingness at not being able to save their companion.

They did not want to die under the hands of a malicious spirit in a place like this.

Killing intent filled their hearts. Kill her! Kill her! Kill her!

If they didnt kill her, they would die just like Loufman. They stopped passively dodging and instead raised their weapons high, intent on attacking her.

Oh, how fun! The little girl giggled at the sight and clapped her hands in delight. Im going to grab you!

Their tragic mood went right over her head.

Kill her! Kill that monster!

Kill her!

The group rushed towards the little girl, who was smiling extraordinarily sweetly, with their swords and staffs.

Despair filled Yaoyues heart. It would be useless. Attacking with magic and physical strikes wouldnt have any effect on the little girls spirit body. The only thing that would work were necromancer magic and light magic.

Yaoyue was the only one in the group with necromancer magic. As for light magic. . . 

She glanced over at Ming Xi. She knew he had talent for light, but he rarely used it, so she didnt know what level his magic was or if he could control it well.

Junior Ming Xi, join me. Yaoyue cast necromancer magic as she said this.

Of course. Ming Xi replied. He rarely used magic, so between swordsmanship and magic, he was much better at the former. Nonetheless, he swapped the sword in his hand for a staff.

498: Two People As Canon Fodder

Feng Wu was worried as she stepped aside and looked at the scene in front of her. Rui Baby wasnt back yet, what should she do?

Xiao Chun was in the process of leveling up from all the purification he did earlier, so he couldnt come out to help her.

Without Xiao Chuns help, no matter how fierce Feng Wus fighting spirit was, she couldnt do anything to an undead, after all she wasnt actually a necromancer.

Without Xiao Chun, there was nothing she could do.

Ming Xis light magic combined with Yaoyues necromancer magic would not be enough to defeat the little girl spirit. All it did was buy everyone some time.

They had to admit their attacks were useless after seeing how it didnt damage the little girl in anyway.

The situation was desperate.

Right then, Zi Cheng made her move.

Everyone, step back. Theres a way we can escape, probably.

Zi Cheng had thought long and hard before taking out her Boundary Breaking talisman. She would gain a lot of favorability points if she could save them, which meant she could at least make up some of the points she spent to buy the talisman.

All around, people's eyes lit up as a glimmer of hope flared in their hearts.

There was no time to tell if her words were true or not. They wanted to live and this was an opportunity. Of course they would seize it!

Miss Zi Cheng, what can you do. Please tell us.

People spoke cautiously and they looked at Zi Cheng differently now.

Ai Lin was surprised. She didnt expect Zi Cheng to take out the Boundary Breaker talisman. Wasnt she afraid of exposing her system?

But then upon thinking about, as long as it wasnt worn on the body, who, other than a fellow transmigrator, would imagine a something like a system was possible?

Other people were more likely to think what opportunities Zi Cheng had, and not so much if a system was possible or if one existed.

This talisman is called the Boundary Breaking talisman and it can break through any enchantment. However, the enchantment we are in is so powerful that it cant completely break it. It can only open a passage out. The passage will sustain for a very short period of time, three breaths only. So if you want to escape, you must do so within those three breaths.

Then what are we waiting for?! Miss Zi Cheng, hurry and open the passage well leave now!

Who would want to stay in such a terrifying place? Of course they wanted to leave as soon as they could. They didnt want to wait around and be turned into ice sculptures!

Zi Cheng shook her head. Not yet. Once the passage is opened, it must not be disturbed. If the spirit attacks, Im afraid we wont be able to escape in time and we will all die here.

People looked at each other in dismay. This meant someone would have to stay to attract the spirits attention; in other words, they needed a sacrifice.

Who would be willing to do that?

One person looked at someone, another looked at someone else. Eyes shifted everywhere. No one wanted the job.

Then they turned to look at Ming Xi and Yaoyue fighting the little girl. Their eyes shone bright. Werent those two good candidates?! As long as those two kept the spirit busy, everyone else could escape!

In order to survive, the selfish side of human nature reared it ugly head.

Mogefei could see were their thoughts were headed. His face turned ugly. Both people were members of his team; plus Ming Xis identity was special.

When Mogefei left school, the teachers had taken care tell him to watch out for Ming Xi and ensure no accidents befell him.

He didnt know why the teachers were so particular about Ming Xi, but it was clear Ming Xis background must have been so extraordinary that even the teachers didnt want to offend the forces behind him.

Tian Ya, who had the best relationship with Ming Xi, frowned at the group. These guys actually wanted to use Ming Xi as some kind cannon fodder? The prince of the Ancient Moon kingdom? One of the four future emperors? Ha.

Ming Xi and Yaoyue were focused on dealing with the little girl and werent aware they had drawn the short straw.

From their perspective, the group didnt think there was anything wrong with sacrificing two people for the good of the group. Besides they were the only two who could deal with the spirit. They had the ability, so why would they mind being sacrificed?!

This was of course because they themselves werent the ones being sacrificed, so naturally they didnt feel any pressure. If they were the ones to be left behind, they wouldnt be so openminded.

Miss Yaoyue and Ming Xi are both students from Xingguang Holy academy, it must be in their bones to sacrifice themselves for others. It would be their honor. They would definitely agree to stay behind! Someone said as though it was the most natural thing in the world.

Mogefei and his group did not look good. It seemed these people were intent on leaving Yaoyue and Ming Xi behind in order to save their own butts.

You dare?! If you think its so great why dont you stay behind?! Houzhuo looked at the speaker disdainfully.

I would totally stay behind! But Im not a necromancer. I couldnt stop the spirit even if I wanted to. The man who spoke up was even more assertive now.

Then why should Ming Xi and Yaoyue stay? Tian Yas voice was cold and flat.

Even in a life and death situation, his face remained placid and calm.

If it means we all live, isnt that a good enough reason?

Do you want us to die together?!

As long as the two of them are willing to make this small sacrifice, well all live. Of course the two of them would agree to such a reasonable request.

The gall. Ai Lin rolled her eyes at their ugliness.

Tang was silent throughout. He wanted to live, but the only way to do so was to sacrifice two of his teammates. Though he wasnt particularly close to either of them, they did come from the same school. Everyone won the challenge and got into the top ten together. How could he watch the two of them get shafted when they started this together?

But if they didnt leave Ming Xi and Yaoyue behind, everyone would die. He was torn. He didnt have the words so he left it to the team captain to decide.

You call dying a small sacrifice?! Ai Lin was speechless. If death wasnt considered a big sacrifice, then what was?

They wont necessarily die! You dont know that. Maybe theyll get lucky and survive? Someone yelled out, but it was obvious they didnt believe their own words.
