330: An Obscene First Meeting
Xue Yi chuckled, scratched her head, and a look of longing appeared in her eyes:
"I miss my dad so much... I wonder if he's doing well?"
Xue Ling smiled, "Of course nothing will happen. This time, the team is being led personally by the ' Temple of Annihilation.' Narrative-level Civilization possess countless gods; for them, nurturing Kappa-rank is as easy as sending a child to kindergarten."
Xue Yi's eyes darted around. "But Dad has a master's degree, so saying that would be belittling his academic qualifications."
Xue Ling was taken aback, then laughed and scolded, "You naughty boy, I'll hit you! Don't run away!"
"Hehehe, sister, you can't catch me, you can't catch me~~~"
Xue Yi made a funny face and ran and jumped through the terminal hall. People who saw this lively little devil just smiled knowingly.
Xue Yi jogged quickly and rushed into the men's restroom, hiding behind the door, ready to suddenly burst out and scare her sister.
"Hehe, serves you right for always nagging me, Sister Lingling, watch me scare you so much you wet your pants!"
Xue Yi crouched behind the door, covered his mouth, and held his breath. The toilet was empty, and he was fully prepared.
"She was exhausted."
Just then, a clear, melodious female voice slowly resounded in his heart.
"... Who is it?"
Xue Yi turned her head in confusion and saw a beautiful woman dressed in a thin black veil with a blue rose growing from her left eye reflected in the mirror above the sink.
This scene was very strange, but Xue Yi certainly didn't find it scary.
On the contrary, the other person had a serene demeanor and gentle eyes, and did not seem like a bad person.
The woman saw him turn his head, smiled slightly, and uttered a soft whisper:
"Stop fooling around, sweetheart. Hurting the people who love you will only cause you more harm."
Xue Yi scratched his head, not understanding what the other person meant, but the flower-like look in the other person's eyes and their beautiful appearance attracted his attention. Naively, he subconsciously said:
"Wow, you're so pretty, sister."
"... This is the first time I've heard this claim."
The woman whose left eye was sprouting a rose was slightly surprised, then she smiled and said:
"People use all sorts of words to describe me: filthy, shameless, repulsive, absurd... And you actually think I'm beautiful?"
"Because it's true," Xue Yi said frankly. "And even if everyone says you're not good, they haven't denied that you're very beautiful! Sister, you need to be more confident."
"... I must say, you're really cute."
The woman nodded, her beautiful eyes gleaming with an unusual light, as if she had tasted the sweetest fruit in the world. A smile unconsciously crept onto her lips. She slowly raised her hand and said:
"Come here, little cutie, come here."
Generally speaking, Xue Yi is very wary of outsiders and rarely interacts with them.
But he didn't feel that the woman had any ill intentions. He walked confidently to the mirror, stood on tiptoe, and tried to climb onto the sink.
The woman gently raised her fingertip, Xue Yi's body immediately floated up, level with her line of sight.
Xue Yi then noticed that the beautiful young lady with the flower-like left eye had skin as delicate as fine porcelain, without a single wrinkle.
No wonder she looks so good, her skin is so smooth!
Xue Yi thought of it.
"For me, beauty sometimes doesn't represent glory, but rather a curse."
The woman said softly:
"From the day I was born from chaos, I was too delicate and beautiful, so my strong kind regarded me as a disgrace; and the noble and famous looked down on me and ridiculed my beauty, thinking that I was useless; when I achieved something, they suspected that I used shady means, because of my beauty, they slandered me for achieving success by selling my body and questioned whether I achieved it through my own efforts."
"But no matter what others say, it can't change the fact that you are beautiful, sister."
Xue Yi thought to herself, "In my opinion, beauty is beauty. No matter what, I just like beautiful things."
"Hehehe, I can take that as... you like me?"
The woman chuckled softly.
"Of course, I really like you, big sister."
Xue Yi looked at the other person and said cheerfully:
"My name is Xue Yi, and I am the son of the president of the Snow World Civilization. Sister, you can treat me as a little prince."
"I have no parents. I Born from Chaos and the will of the Star Abyss. I have been banished to the most dangerous places countless times... I also have no family. I didn't even have a name in the first place."
The woman looked at the other person gently and said, "But now, people have a new way of addressing me."
She opened her arms and, through the mirror, slowly embraced Xue Yi.
"Lievice"
Lievice lowered her head, her porcelain skin making intimate contact with the other person, her cold lips whispering in Xue Yi's ear:
"You move me deeply, child. From the very first glance, you captured my attention, and now I understand... everything about you is destiny."
"I love you, Xue Yi. You are the only shining light in this ugly and depraved dark Star Abyss. If you can keep your love for me unchanged for ten years, I will give you everything I have."
"Are you willing, Xue Yi? Are you willing to sign a contract with me?"
Her voice lingered in Xue Yi's heart like a brand, perhaps fueled by youthful passion, or perhaps by naivety. Without much thought, Xue Yi readily agreed.
"I do, Sister Lievice!"
Lievice's lips curled up as she released her embrace, her body slowly collapsing into the mirror.
"Sister Lievice, where are you going?"
Xue Yi was a little anxious and reluctantly rushed towards the mirror, but could only bump into the mirror surface, just a step away from the other side, yet unable to reach it.
"I won't go anywhere, Xue Yi. If you can keep your passionate love for me and never fade, then my only destination will be by your side."
"Sister Lievice, where exactly are you? How can I convey my feelings to you?"
"Me? I From the Star Abyss. From the Star Abyss of an even lower level."
Lievice smiled slightly and raised her index finger, signaling Xue Yi to be quiet:
"You don't need to rush to prove to me. The contract is set, and I will always be able to feel your heart, my dear."
Xue Yi wanted to say something, but Lievice's figure had already disappeared. He stood blankly on the sink, his foot on the faucet. It all seemed like a dream, incredibly unreal.
" From the From the Star Abyss... doesn't that mean you went to the same place as Dad?"
Xue Yi murmured.
The next moment, a familiar figure immediately appeared in the mirror.
"From what?"
Xue Ling crossed her arms, her gaze gentle, her tone soft:
"Hey kid, why aren't you running anymore? Weren't you supposed to be a fast runner?"
Xue Yi instinctively wanted to retort, but remembering Lievice's instructions, the words she was about to say changed immediately:
"I'm sorry, sister, I've caused you trouble. You've been so busy lately, and I haven't been able to keep up with you. I'm very sorry, and I won't cause you any more trouble in the future."
Xue Ling was taken aback by her younger brother's sudden obedience. "You're not lying to me, are you? Tell me, did you get into trouble?"
"No, not at all! Sister Lingling, I really think you've been working very hard lately, having to manage social relationships and take me around. I'm sorry for not being considerate and for causing you trouble."
Xue Yi said earnestly.
"... Well, it's nothing."
Xue Ling felt a warmth in her heart, picked him up from the platform, and patted his bottom. "Let's go, we're going to see Mr. Disville. He's a rather eccentric fellow, and it's not easy to see him without an appointment! You must be polite and absolutely cannot mention the word 'old' in front of him. Also, he has difficulty walking, so you can't make him walk around, understand?"
Knock knock knock————
Li Aoz rudely knocked on the door, and before the robotic butler could fly over to ask, he put one hand on his hip and casually said, "I am Lioz, the old man Disville, come down and open the door!"
