Reborn as Xiao in another world, targeted by the little red bird

As Yuanliu's words fell, the atmosphere in the room became a little more oppressive. It was obvious that City Lord Kang and President Qiao knew something and believed what he said.

"Do you have a solution?" President Qiao asked tentatively.

"Of course, we are here to deliver solutions to the front line. However, we are not doing charity."

"We can't be too definite. We need to examine this... young man before we can make any conclusions."

"Come, drop some blood on the instrument, and then input vital energy into it."

Hong Xiao sat on the bed, quietly watching the person in front of him hand the instrument to him, without moving.

"Hmm?" The man looked at Hong Xiao in confusion. The latter shifted his gaze away from the instrument, his eyes full of provocation.

"What do you mean?" The man withdrew his doubts, frowned, and said seriously: "You are wasting our time."

"Are you ordering me?" Hong Xiao half-closed his eyes and stared at the other person for a while, until the other person couldn't stand it anymore and looked away first. He suddenly lifted the quilt and was about to get out of bed: "Since you don't welcome me, I'll leave."

"Xiao, stop it." President Qiao, who was confused, wanted to dissuade him, but was glared back by Red Xiao. Only then did he remember that the person in front of him was not the Xiao he was familiar with. What should he do?

"What's wrong?" Xiao asked puzzledly.

"Nothing." Hong Xiao snorted. "If I do whatever they say, it will make me look very embarrassed."

Xiao: What a strange idea, although it’s not the first time.

"Ahem." Xiao cleared his throat and said in a mature tone, "Where does this unprovoked desire to compare come from?"

"Huh?" Red Xiao was stunned for a moment, "Who are you imitating?"

Xiao almost blurted out the word "Dad", but after a pause he found an excuse: "The man in my dream."

This time it was Hong Xiao's turn to be confused, but he didn't take it to heart. While the others were not able to react, he bit his fingertips and bounced the blood and energy into the instrument.

Suddenly, a piercing alarm sounded from the instrument. The two people from Yuanliu looked at the instrument in surprise and stammered, "What, is this contamination from the Order Envoy level? Were you injured by the Order Envoy? Even the lowest-level Order Envoy is at least King-level. How did you, a Saint-level, escape from its clutches? Wait, it can't be..."

The two thought of a possibility, that is, the boy was deliberately released to drive a nail into their ranks. Thinking of this, they hurriedly shouted: "Quickly control him, he is a pawn set by the envoy!"

Red Xiao rolled his eyes at them. But it did remind him that the monster had left something in his body. In order to prevent what happened to his other self from happening again, he had to get rid of it.

President Qiao's hesitant gaze shifted back and forth between the Red Goblin and the people from the Abyss.

When it was still at the Venerable level, the other existence in Xiao's body destroyed a group of beasts led by a three-star divine beast. Now that it has reached the Saint level, it is just escaping from a King-level enemy. This should be a normal operation, right?

But there is actually a king-level enemy. Shan Xubei, who has lost contact until now, is probably in danger. Alas... I still know too little.

"What are you hesitating about?" Yuanliu's people glared at the two rulers of Licheng and slowly retreated to the door, as if ready to rush out at any time.

"A chess piece? Is it worthy of controlling me?"

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Hong Xiao sitting on the bed with one leg raised. In his palm was a ball of dark green energy with a few strands of black silk trapped inside, which were wriggling like earthworms.

These things...my own power can't even destroy them.

He hid the surprise in his eyes, raised his head and looked at everyone proudly, as if to say, that's it?

With just one glance, President Qiao felt goose bumps all over his body. It was an instinctive warning from his body that the thing in Xiao's hand was very dangerous.

He quickly turned his eyes away from the red goblin's hand.

"What! How is it possible that someone can force the contamination out of their body by themselves? Theoretically, this is impossible?" Yuanliu's people stood there with their mouths wide open, feeling like their brains were stuck.

In the end, Yuanliu's people were still a little worried. Even though they couldn't find a reason to extort money, they still left a set of pills for their own safety.

They had just received news that many people infected by magic stones appeared outside for unknown reasons, and the return journey was very dangerous. They could only curse their colleagues who were recovering magic stones in their hearts while waiting in the city for the danger on the way back to be eliminated. They didn't want danger to appear inside again, otherwise they would have nowhere to go.

After pointing out which was the main medicine and which was the auxiliary medicine, and instructing them to take the auxiliary medicine immediately after taking the main medicine, they left with the things that Red Xiao had forced out of his body. Yes, they had an instrument that could trap such things.

It's still somewhat useful, not too useless.

Hong Xiao withdrew his gaze and turned the pill in his hand.

Hiss, which one is the main medicine and which one is the auxiliary medicine? Forget it, I don’t remember, I won’t take it, I’m not sick, why should I take medicine?

Yuanliu's people left, and City Lord Kang went to see them off. Only Hong Xiao and President Qiao were left in the room.

"Xiao...are you really okay?" President Qiao came to the red Xiao and squatted down.

"Huh? Are you doubting me? Why would I harm him for no reason?"

Then, President Qiao saw the boy's pupils change from blue to gold, and the disdain in his eyes turned into helplessness.

"Eh? President? Hiss..." Xiao couldn't help but frown as he felt a piercing pain in his chest.

This kind of beauty that doesn't care about the life or death of the body...he knows it.

Before he could speak again, he felt the control of his body being taken away by Red Xiao. He suddenly had a sense of déjà vu, everything just now was like Red Xiao showing his precious things to outsiders, but he only showed them once, and then he took them back and hid them carefully.

It's kind of cute when you think about it.

Xiao almost couldn't help laughing out loud.

"This was snatched from the monster." Hong Xiao handed the communication stone to President Qiao, not understanding why his other self was so happy.

"Stolen from monsters?" President Qiao looked at the damaged communication stone in his hand, the corner of his mouth twitched.

Did he snatch it from that envoy? Very good, it fits my first impression of him.

President Qiao weighed the communication stone in his hand and said, "I'll contact the person to see if it can be repaired. You should take good care of your injuries. I'll come back to ask about the situation when you feel better."

He didn't really want to deal with Red Xiao, as he felt that he was a difficult character to communicate with. He just hoped that when his injuries got better, he would release the Xiao he was familiar with. With Xiao's self-healing ability, he shouldn't have to wait too long.

After President Qiao left, Xiao asked, "Aren't you in pain?"

Red Xiao: "It's just a minor injury."

Xiao: ...still being stubborn, even though he knows everything clearly in his heart, otherwise why would he participate in social activities that he has no interest in at all.

Xiao: "Just think of it as a favor to the people who care about you. Don't do anything that would make them worry."

Red Mandrill: “…I don’t need it.”

Xiao: Why is this guy so stubborn? I really want to wake him up, but I can't...

"But since it's you, I can give you a chance." Hong Xiao said nonchalantly, "When you can beat me, I will listen to you once."

Xiao: ...He knew there was no way I could beat him. He definitely did it on purpose.
