Villain Guardian: After Raising Five Future Villains

Chapter 137

Jiang Zhu and Liu Qing were not interested in her story, and Lin Xiao had no desire to tell it now.

She just suddenly felt that her life in this world was very dramatic, but she would not lose her fighting spirit or admit defeat like Shouguang did, and just treat life as it is.

“…I won’t be confused.”

"Shouguang! Are you looking at me? Are you looking at me?"

"I don't know why you do this to me. Now I won't care or think about it anymore."

"But I won't be defeated by this! I won't die here! I - I'm only thirty-five years old! My life has just begun! As long as I get out of here, I still have many opportunities!"

"Shouguang! Shouguang..."

"It was my own choice to be friends with you and tell you my story." At this point, it's no use regretting it, so does she regret it?

"At first, I thought I had done something wrong and that's why you treated me like this, but that's not the case. Shouguang, I'm not wrong."

Of course she regretted it. Whenever she thought about how she almost died and the ten years she had lost in vain, she felt that she was stupid enough to be friends with Shouguang.

But as time went by, as she followed Jiang Zhu and Bai Ji and watched how they got along, she asked herself that question again.

Making friends with people of a different race was the cause of all this trouble. Was this her biggest mistake?

"No, it's not. Becoming friends with you, with aliens, and with strange creatures is not the biggest mistake I have made, because even if they are from the same race, there is no guarantee that they will not betray me, no way to know their true thoughts about me, and no way to ensure that their feelings are the same as mine."

"The only mistake I made was that I was too self-righteous. I thought that installing surveillance cameras at home would solve most of the problems, and that I would open up to you slowly and without reservation as we got along."

This is Lin Xiao's own problem. She likes to be a storyteller, especially since Shouguang has always given her positive feedback. So Lin Xiao slowly told Shouguang too many things about herself.

She enjoyed everything Shouguang brought her and thought that they would always be good friends, but she forgot the basic conditions of being friends.

equality.

Shouguang used the inspiration he got from her to build his career, enrich his life and please himself, while she was just enjoying herself.

She knew clearly how powerful Shouguang was, and knew clearly that she would have no way to resist if Shouguang attacked her, but she was not prepared at all and did not take any measures.

She only learned what Shouguang taught her and only watched what Shouguang showed her.

"Haha, but that's true. If I say I want to know your weakness, you definitely won't tell me. All I can do is ask you to teach me how to become stronger while our relationship is still good."

"But in your opinion, this is even more ridiculous, right?"

Lin Xiao seemed to have lost all his strength. He fell to his knees weakly on the ground, covering his face with his hands. Tears were already streaming down his face.

"Shouguang, I'm not wrong."

The three people beside him had different thoughts for a while because of Lin Xiao's words. Because the topic involved the problem of getting along with aliens, Liu Qing and Jiang Zhu subconsciously looked at Baiji.

The latter was obviously in a daze, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Suddenly, the entire space began to distort, and several people almost lost their balance. Liu Qing and Jiang Zhu subconsciously went to support Bai Ji, but saw Bai Ji moving forward and walking towards Lin Xiao.

Because of the shaking of space, Lin Xiao fell to the ground and was struggling to get up.

The ground was covered with Tian Zhibo's blood, and she didn't want to... Wait? Where was Tian Zhibo's blood?

When his eyes moved, not to mention Tian Zhibo's blood, even Tian Zhibo's body was gone.

The space finally stabilized. Bai Ji stood behind Lin Xiao. She also found that Tian Zhibo was gone. The floor was clean as if nothing had happened here.

Baiji: "Shouguang."

When Lin Xiao heard the name, her body trembled. She propped up her upper body, and then, as if she felt something, she suddenly raised her head and looked forward.

There was only a wall in front, but the next second, a figure appeared on the wall. Unlike the embarrassed Lin Xiao, Shouguang, who was still as bright and beautiful, slowly separated from the wall and appeared in front of everyone.

Liu Qing and Jiang Zhu quickly became alert. Because this body was not as tall as Liu Qing's original body, Liu Qing, who was not very adaptable, cursed in his heart.

After feeling it for a while, he found that his strength had not changed at all. However, in front of the master of the fictional world, using the other party's fictional body, how much of his strength could he exert?

Baiji was not as alert as Liu Qing and Jiang Zhu, but the air around his body was burning with black flames, and it was obvious that he was ready to attack at any time.

Shouguang didn't even look at them. Since she appeared, her eyes have been on Lin Xiao.

What about Lin Xiao? At this moment, she wanted to rush up and question Shouguang as she had always wanted to do, but she was also afraid that Shouguang would suddenly attack her and she would not be able to resist, so she could only lower her head and escape.

Should she rely on Baiji and the others? They were unreliable. After all, they were just casual acquaintances. Baiji and the others did not rescue the people imprisoned here like her. She was here only because Baiji knew her.

But that's it.

This is why she carried a table knife with her, because she knew that relying on her own strength would make her feel more secure than relying on others. Even if this strength was so weak that it had no effect, at least it was better than doing nothing, right?

Oh, right, the table knife.

Lin Xiao remembered the dinner knife and hurriedly went to look for the knife that had fallen on the ground.

She looked around for a long time but couldn't find any trace of the knife. When she finally saw the knife, she was completely frozen.

＊, go to hell.

Shouguang was only three steps away from her at this time. The dinner knife was at Shouguang's feet, and she was kneeling on the ground with her head buried.

The familiar voice made Lin Xiao, who had gained more than twenty years of memories, feel as if he was in another world.

"You want this knife?"

Shouguang raised his hand, and the table knife floated up slowly, then swayed in front of Lin Xiao. Although Shouguang considerately pointed the handle towards Lin Xiao, Lin Xiao was still frightened and dodged backwards until he bumped into Baiji behind him.

She was so upset that she wanted to cry but had no tears. She trembled and grabbed Baiji's pants, using such great strength that it seemed as if she was going to pull Baiji's pants off.

"Hurry up and do it!"

Boss! You look so fierce and powerful, but when the enemy appears, you should take action!

Bai Ji grabbed his pants with one hand and pulled Lin Xiao's hand away with the other, "Wait a minute, don't panic, she has no intention of killing."

In Lin Xiao's peripheral vision, the dinner knife was still dangling in the air. She wanted to grab Baiji and stand up, but because she was too flustered, she failed to stand up and fell back again.

Lin Xiao/Bai Ji: …

Shouguang:?

Lin Xiao closed his eyes and was no longer anxious.

Sometimes this kind of situation happens. Although the person looks fine, he or she has actually been gone for a while.

Baiji didn't understand what Lin Xiao meant, and simply pulled her up. When she just stood up, her body was a little unstable, and she swayed like the table knife, and then she immediately hid behind Baiji nimbly.

Then, a dull voice was heard, "Just because she has no intention to kill you, are you going to let her go? Are you such a good person?" Of course not!

As long as the other party wants her dead, as long as she has had this idea and has put it into practice, even if she fails in the end, and the other party is not a bad person, Baiji will take his life.

But the problem is that from the beginning to the end, every time they faced Shouguang, the other side had no intention of killing Baiji.

Even the person who threw Baiji in was not Shouguang. Shouguang was just the master of this world.

But it's not fair to say that she's completely innocent? After all, it was she and Bai Su who worked together, so Bai Su could throw her in... So what exactly are they working on?

Could it be that he just wanted her to take a tour in the virtual world?

Baiji: "Please explain first."

Shouguang: "What do you want to explain?"

Bai Ji: "The matter between you and Bai Su, and Lin Xiao and the other two." He raised his hand and pointed at the two people behind him.

Shouguang tilted his head and thought for a moment, then proposed a deal.

She was very curious about where Baiji had been in the past ten years, so next time Baiji asked her a question, she would ask Baiji a question, but the question did not have to be equal.

In other words, Baiji can answer some of her simple questions in exchange for the answer to any question that Baiji wants to know.

Baiji: "Will you give me such a good deal?"

Although she had seen Shouguang's generosity ten years ago, where he asked very tactful questions in exchange for some information she knew about "God", it still felt a bit absurd to see it happen again after so many years.

Especially this time she actually stated very bluntly that she would not ask sensitive and confidential questions.

Facing the four people opposite with questioning faces, Shouguang calmly played with his hair and said, "I thought you knew me well. All my questions are out of my own curiosity and have nothing to do with the forces behind me."

"But we have different positions after all, so we can't just give it away for free, right? You probably won't believe such straightforward information sharing, right?"

This is undeniable, after all, it looks more suspicious.

But if we replace it with a simple question, wouldn’t the effect be the same?

Would you exchange confidential information from your side with the enemy by asking them something as stupid and simple as what they had for lunch?

Shou Guang: "Don't be nervous. The content of this transaction is not classified information, right? It's no different from a normal communication and conversation."

Baiji/Lin Xiao: I suddenly feel angry.

Anger can make people lose their minds and have courage. When Lin Xiao heard that her problem was so easy for Shouguang, she immediately jumped out from behind Baiji, pointed at Shouguang and shouted: "Normal communication and dialogue? Yes, it is normal for you to throw me to a place like this to suffer, you are such an inhuman guy!"

Although he was angry, he still retained some rationality. He did not curse Shouguang or say any other dirty words.

But her jumping made Bai Ji remember her identity, so it stands to reason, "Lin Xiao's problem doesn't count, right?"

Lin Xiao: “Ah?”

Shouguang: "Of course, this is all taken from you. I told you, one question for another."

Bai Ji nodded, then looked at Lin Xiao seriously, "Then let's solve your problem between the two of you. I won't interfere."

Lin Xiao was horrified. He looked at Baiji, then at Shouguang, his lips trembling, and he seemed to be hesitant to speak.

——Aliens! Damn it! These aliens!

Shouguang waved his hand, and the background of the entire space began to change, and finally became an interrogation room. A table and two chairs appeared out of thin air, and Baiji and Shouguang sat down face to face.

Jiang Zhu and Liu Qing consciously stood behind Bai Ji. Lin Xiao hesitated for a moment, but still chose to stand on Bai Ji's side.

So there are four people here, although three of them are standing, but with this background, well, it looks like they are interrogating Shouguang.

Yes! That's it!

Shouguang: "So let's start now?"

Baiji: "Let's get started."

The first question, of course, is about Bai Su.

"Tell me about your cooperation with Bai Su, and the causes and consequences of these things?"

Shouguang: "Well... you know how to ask questions better than you did ten years ago. But this is also good. I like greedy guys."

Lin Xiao knew that this was the truth, but he still couldn't help but let out a "tsk" sound behind him.

Shouguang looked up at her, but did not scold her. He began to answer Baiji's questions.

"Bai Su and I... It was about three years ago, right? Bai Su contacted me through Xiao Youlan and said he wanted to give you a gift. I had other things to do at the time, so I didn't pay much attention to it. But during that time, Bai Su and Xiao Youlan gradually became familiar with each other, so Xiao Youlan also started to pester me. Then I went to Bai Su to learn more about the so-called gift, and I found it quite interesting, so I agreed."

"But everyone knows that you still had no news at that time, so the plan was temporarily shelved. Until now, you have returned and it has been restarted."

"As for that gentleman's matter, I don't know anything about it. Our cooperation is just to let you experience the life of an ordinary human in my world."

It's that simple?

Baiji couldn't believe it: "You just want me to experience the life of an ordinary person?"

Shou Guang: "Yes, I can swear that I didn't lie. This is all about Bai Su's cooperation with me, but I don't know what she was thinking at the time and what her purpose was."

Baiji: "So you agreed just because you thought it was interesting?"

Shou Guang: "Of course, Bai Su just asked me to create an ordinary identity for you, but how ordinary should this ordinary person be? She gave me full authority to design some specific settings. This is very interesting."

"Oh, let me make it clear that this is not directed at you. I find it fun to design or create characters."

Baiji covered his face, even more confused about Bai Su's thoughts.

Shou Guang: "But you saw the result. Although I designed one for you, it was completely useless because of your strong strength. That fictional body could not contain you at all."

Shouguang looked Baiji up and down as he spoke, "You've become stronger, um... I should have thought of that. I shouldn't have arranged energy according to your physical data ten years ago, but there's nothing I can do about it. I don't want the whole world to serve you, so of course I'll save energy wherever possible."

Seeing Baiji's complicated expression, Shouguang shrugged his shoulders and continued, "But don't worry, we didn't ask for anything from the other party in this cooperation, nor did we sign any unfair contracts. She proposed it and I agreed. It's that simple."

"Besides, since my estimation failed and has not yet succeeded, you can leave after this transaction. I have already informed Bai Su. After you leave, she should talk to you, right? Ah, don't expect too much. It's hard to say. After all, I am not her. I am just making a hypothesis now."

"Well, in short, your humans are still your humans."

The moment he finished speaking, Shouguang's face turned cold and his gaze moved from Baiji to Lin Xiao who was rolling his eyes.

"So, can my human be returned to me now?"
