Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
One was coaxing others.
One was being coaxed.
Xu Bai preferred the latter.
After all, a beautiful, mature, and intellectual big sister was very gentle and happy to tutor him, help him check his body, and even wear his law enforcement clothes. Then, he could arrest her for pretending to be a law enforcement officerâŠ
They were getting off topic.
Xu Bai shook his head and looked at Wang Qiang, who had already run to the
Old Bull Grill. He retracted his gaze and turned around. Then, he saw Skinny Monkeyâs surprised gaze on him.
He froze.
âWhat happened?â
ââŠNo.â
Skinny Monkey came back to his senses and retracted his gaze. Then, he looked at Xu Bai and said hesitantly, âBrother Bai, I feel like youâve become a different person.â
Xu Bai raised his eyebrows and looked down at himself.
âIs it that obvious?â
âBrother Bai⊠you broke through?â
When Skinny Monkey heard Xu Bail s words, a trace of surprise flashed across his eyes. His expression froze for a second or two. Then, he seemed to have thought of something and could not help but ask in a low voice.
Xu Bai retracted his gaze and looked at Skinny Monkey. After some thought, he did not hide anything. âYes.â
After all, Skinny Monkeyâs loyalty was maxed out.
Whatâs more, it was the kind that could not fall and directly show the maximum value.
soâŠ
It was fine to tell Skinny Monkey. Moreover, Xu Bai enjoyed the expression on Skinny Monkeyâs face after he said this.
Skinny Monkey, whose conjecture had been confirmed, opened his mouth completely. An inexplicable, surprised, and unbelievable expression appeared on his face. Then, it was replaced by surprise and excitement.
Finally.
A thousand words came out of Skinny Monkeyâs mouth and turned into one word.
The corners of Xu Baiâs mouth twitched.
âFine.â
This was not what he had expected.
ButâŠ
He thought about Skinny Monkeyâs literacy level and understood that it was a little difficult for a Skinny Monkey who had yet to graduate from junior high to say some high-end, generous, and classy compliments.
Xu Bai thought for a moment and did not pay attention to these details. Instead, he touched his chin and looked at Skinny Monkey. âSpeaking of which, are my changes that obvious?â
He thought that after a night of adaptation, he had already adapted to this state.
FurthermoreâŠ
Xu Bai opened âMagic Ringâ and saw that the Level 15 setting he had set was still in effect. He looked at Skinny Monkey. âWhat level do you think I am now?â
Skinny Monkey hesitated for a moment. âIt gives me the feeling that heâs at the peak of the third-level Martial Apprentice Realm, but the feeling of the Invigorated Meridian Realm is also on Brother Bai. Thatâs why I tried to ask you just now.â
Xu Bai stroked his chin.
There was also the feeling of the Invigorated Meridian Realm.
He closed his eyes and sank into his bier.
After a while.
Xu Bai opened his eyes and looked at Skinny Monkey.
âLike this?â and some more.â
âWait a moment!â
Xu Bai nodded and said. Then, he sank into his Spirit Platform again and started to fiddle with the golden light on the Spirit Platform. When the golden light was completely gone, he opened his eyes and looked at Skinny Monkey.
âNow.â âThatâs it.â
âVery well. â
Xu Bai nodded. Then, he blinked and looked at Skinny Monkey. âThatâs not right, Monkey. How do you know the feeling of the Invigorated Meridian Realm? Didnât you say that youâve never seen Xiao Jingnan?â
Skinny Monkey nodded.
âYes, I havenât seen Xiao Jingnan with my own eyes.â
âThen how do you know
âAbout half a month ago, when I was on duty, I saw an Invigorated Meridian martial artist in Sun Qinyaâs office. A real Invigorated Meridian martial artist.â
When Xu Bai heard that, he looked at Skinny Monkey suspiciously.
âIâve never heard you mention this before.â
âBecause he left that night. It seems like that person is not from the vast Great Desolate World.â
Not from the vast Great Desolate World?
âHow do you know that?â âI overheard them.â
Eavesdropping again?
Xu Bai narrowed his eyes and looked at Skinny Monkey. âLast time, Xiao
Jingnan was also eavesdropping at Sun Qinyaâs door. This time, itâs the same. Speaking of which, you didnât eavesdrop at my door, right?â
Skinny Monkey was slightly taken aback and quickly shook his head. âNo, Brother Bai, absolutely not. At that time, I just thought that if I could hang around at the door of Sun Qinyaâs office, the chances of being called in would be higher.â
When Xu Bai heard this answer, his expression when he looked at Skinny Monkey became even more strange.
âWhat do you want?â
âWellâŠâ
Skinny Monkey looked like he wanted to say something but hesitated. âActually, Sun Qinya is quite suitable for giving birth. Besides, it wonât do me any harm if I can enter their circle.â
When you praised me just now, you only knew how to curse.
Now that youâre talking about yourself, youâre quite good at language art.
When Xu Bai heard Skinny Monkeyâs words, he immediately understood.
Sun Qinya was quite suitable to be raised with a high EQ.
âLow EQ I donât want to work hard. I want to be a happy duckling.â
Xu Bai looked at Skinny Monkey speechlessly.
Skinny Monkey looked at Xu Bai l s gaze and looked a little embarrassed. He opened his mouth and said, âBrother Bai, I justâŠâ
Xu Bai reached out his hand to interrupt him. âDonât say anymore. I understand. Donât do this again.â
He understood what Skinny Monkey wanted to say.
In a single sentence.
In the ordinary world, some people at the bottom would need to spend their entire lives to climb out. In fact, even if they died, they would not be able to get it.
Not to mention in the transcendent world.
Moreover, Skinny Monkey was a second-generation transmigrator. It was not easy for him to get close to the Night Rose nightclub and see opportunities that he could not even encounter in his previous life. In order to live a better life, there was nothing wrong with just selling his body.
Xu Bai understood.
After all, when he was in university, he had made many major sacrifices for those beautiful missions and to complete the missions given by the system.
Men should understand men.
Xu Bai changed the topic. âLetâs end this topic here. Tell me about that man. What did you overhear? Or rather, how did you think that he wasnât from the vast Great Desolate World?â
Skinny Monkey shook his head.
âI didnât think of it. He said it himself. Moreover, those of us who reincarnated from the vast Great Desolate World and came to the Federation seem to have a mysterious connection. Perhaps when the two of us look at each other, we will know if we are from the vast Great Desolate World. And that person is definitely not from the vast Great Desolate World.â âWhat did he say?
âI came back this time to take back everything Iâve lost.â
âThatâs what that man said. After that man left, I heard Sun Qinya talking to Xiao Jingnan on the phone and vaguely mentioned that manâs name. His name is Zuo⊠Zuo something?â
Skinny Monkey frowned and tried his best to recall.
After a while.
Skinny Monkeyâs eyes lit up as he looked up at Xu Bai.
âI remember now. His name is Zuo Lei.â
âZuo Lei.â
âYeah. â
Xu Bai repeated the name and shook his head. He had no recollection of it.
âWhat else? Where did he go?â
Skinny Monkey shook his head and said, âI donât know about that. I wanted to continue listening, but when I saw the Four Brothers of Qingshan walking over, I hurriedly left. Then, I heard the Four Brothers of Qingshan taking care of Sun Qinya.â
Xu Bai, who was pondering, shook his head when he heard this and looked at
Skinny Monkey, who was still obsessed. âThereâs no need to say the latter half.â
Skinny Monkey reacted. âIâm sorry, Brother Bai. Actually⊠Sun Qinya is very suitable for childbirth.â
Xu Bai could not help but roll his eyes. âThat was done by technology and hard work. Itâs not real. Canât you be more promising? Forget it, Iâll leave first.â
With that, in order to prevent his aesthetic taste from being led astray by Skinny Monkey, Xu Bai waved his hand and turned around, leaving the rooftop behind him.
Back home.
Xu Bai sat in front of his computer desk again.
Zuo Lei?
This surname was quite rare.
AndâŠ
âDid I come back this time to take back everything I died for?â
What was with this line that was similar to the Kingâs Return?
Could it be that not only could people from the vast Great Desolate World transmigrate to the Federation, but even people from the Federation could transmigrate to the vast Great Desolate World and then transmigrate back?
Good God.
Could one do that?
Xu Bai could not help but shake his head. Every time he felt that he had figured out the truth of this so-called world by himself, something unknown would always pop up in front of him.
No way!
It was still not enough to rely on himself.
He had to find someone who knew all of this to fill in the gaps for him.
Xu Bai leaned back in his chair, his eyes twinkling.
How aboutâŠ
It was the thief sect.
When he returned to the police station that day, An Ya had explained the key points of the eight Daoist Sects and nine heterodox sects to him. However, Xu Bai was still leaning towards Zhu Congâs thief sect.
There was no other reason!
Rather be the head of a chicken than the tail of a snake.
Zhu Cong had already said that as long as Xu Bai acknowledged him as his master, he would be the next head of the thief sect and the 54th sect master of the Miracle Hands Empty Sect.
As for cultivation techniques and skills?
He didnât lack either. Not to mention that he could occasionally drop skill books if it werenât for the fact that he couldnât bear to part with his Game Currency, he could also buy a basket of low-grade skill books and rely on his vast amount of Skill Experience to upgrade them to the highest quality.
BesidesâŠ
Although everyone said that he was a good child and was anxious for justice, Xu Bai knew that he was not a good child strictly speaking.
At the very least, his name was completely unrelated to the righteous path.
Xu Bai had his own likes and dislikes, as well as his own unique worldview. Otherwise, he wouldnât have followed Zhu Cong and become the Pirate Commander after finding out that he was a thief.
Moreover, he happily followed Zhu Cong for several years.
In summary,
After thinking about it, Xu Bai confirmed that no matter what other people chose, it was a good choice for him to join the thief sect and he would not regret it.
He wanted to do it.
Xu Bai raised his eyebrows and looked at the time. He took out his phone and dialed Zhu Congâs number.
He was in the middle of a robbery!
