"Pfft, hahaha! Tomboy, look!" Hexi seemed to have discovered something and suddenly burst out laughing.
Keisha's expression also looked a little strange.
"'The One Who Exploded Morgana's Head'? Is that some expert?" Hexi was beside herself with amusement.
Liang Bing... no, Morgana, that idiot, had actually gotten her head blown off.
Now that was some "entertainment."
And at that moment, the person herself—"The One Who Exploded Morgana's Head"—was just as confused.
['The One Who Exploded Morgana's Head': What's with this name of mine?]
['The One Who Exploded Morgana's Head': Morgana... She's the Demon Queen mentioned earlier, right? But I've never even met her. How could I have blown her head off?]
['Thirty-Thousand-Year-Old Aunt': I'm guessing this is probably something that will happen in the 'future'~]
Seeing someone respond, Qilin immediately followed up:
['The One Who Exploded Morgana's Head': The 'future'?]
['Thirty-Thousand-Year-Old Aunt': That's right. Just like how he could know in advance that the Taotie would arrive and that the girl named Qilin would be in danger.]
['Thirty-Thousand-Year-Old Aunt': Our little Su Bai seems to possess some kind of ability to 'foresee the future.']
['Thirty-Thousand-Year-Old Aunt': Or, put another way—our world may have been a story written long ago. And he is the one who has read the script.]
The old aunt's words made the women in the livestream room recall the video clip that had been updated in the diary earlier.
For a moment, everyone fell into brief silence.
Just as everyone in the livestream room was discussing things heatedly, Azhui was staring at Su Bai in the real world.
He stared blankly at her without blinking.
The corners of her lips lifted slightly.
Hmph~ He's captivated by this beautiful angel, isn't he?
As the most perfect life-form in the Known Universe, angels had always been very confident in the appeal of their looks.
Azhui felt a small burst of smugness: Let's see if you dare to badmouth us angels in your diary again...
However—
Su Bai wasn't shocked by Azhui's extraordinary beauty, nor by the sacred radiance flowing around the angel.
He raised a finger and pointed at the top of Azhui's head, his voice filled with amazement:
"Wow, a slicked-back hairstyle!"
The words were like an invisible pause button, instantly freezing the air.
Azhui, standing opposite Su Bai, stiffened.
At the same time, the scrolling comments in the livestream room abruptly stopped.
All the women who had been discussing "foreseeing the future" and "the world's script" seemed to have been muted at the same time.
The entire space fell into a strangely awkward silence.
Azhui instinctively raised a hand and touched the top of her head.
Her hairstyle was indeed the classic slicked-back style. Her golden hair was combed neatly and crisply toward the back, exposing her smooth forehead and making her look even more heroic. Among angels, this was a common and iconic style, symbolizing efficiency and divinity.
But... this was the first time someone had pointed it out so bluntly, and in such an astonished tone at that.
Especially since the other person had the expression of someone who had "discovered a new continent."
"Pfft—"
A short laugh came from the livestream room, then more followed as if a switch had been turned on:
['The Fox Yan Who Knows How to Flirt': Hahaha, a slicked-back hairstyle! What an accurate description, little Azhui~]
The tips of Azhui's ears visibly turned pale pink.
"This is the standard battle hairstyle of angels!" she tried to maintain a dignified tone, but her slightly quickened speech still betrayed a trace of embarrassment. "It's convenient for combat and conforms to the sacred standards of appearance!"
"Oh—" Su Bai nodded as if he understood, but his curious gaze continued to wander over her hair. "But won't the hair at the back fall down? Did you use a lot of hair gel?"
Azhui: "..."
The livestream room had already dissolved into laughter, with Angel Yan laughing the loudest.
Wasn't that why she was Azhui's good Sister Yan?
['The Fox Yan Who Knows How to Flirt': Azhui, I never paid attention before. Once I get there, I'll have to take a good look at that 'slicked-back hairstyle.']
Azhui took a deep breath and told herself to stay calm. This was an important mission target assigned by Queen Keisha. She couldn't lose her temper over something so trivial...
"I didn't use hair gel." She explained as calmly as possible. "Angel hair has self-cleaning and styling properties. This is one of the basic functions of the Angel Gene."
"That's amazing!" Su Bai's eyes lit up again. "Then you don't have to wash your hair either? Washing hair is such a hassle, especially when it's long."
Azhui suddenly felt that taking him to fight the Taotie might be easier than answering these questions.
Azhui forcibly suppressed the urge to punch the guy opposite her.
He clearly looked rather foolish, yet every sentence seemed to land precisely on her nerves. If you cut him open, he probably had a black heart.
She took a deep breath and forced a reasonably proper smile onto her face:
"Hello, my name is Angel Zhui. You can call me Azhui."
Su Bai also stepped forward and extended his hand:
"Hello, my name is Su Bai. You can also call me... Bai?"
Why are you using a questioning tone even for your own name?!
Azhui silently complained inwardly, while keeping a calm expression on her face.
Having lived on Earth for many years, she naturally understood what the gesture meant. She extended her hand as well and gently shook his:
"Mm... nice to meet you, Bai."
Once the words were out, even she felt that the atmosphere of the conversation was subtly strange.
Their hands parted as soon as they touched.
Azhui withdrew her hand so quickly that it was as if she feared Su Bai would say something astonishing the next second and come up with some strange question or comparison.
After all, the livestream was still running!
In other words, everyone who possessed a Diary Instance was watching their every move in the livestream room.
Azhui didn't want to "embarrass" herself in front of everyone any longer.
Otherwise, wouldn't her sisters tease her about it until she was old?
Su Bai's eyes remained bright as he looked at her, filled with pure expectation.
Azhui felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze and muttered inwardly: What is wrong with this kid...?
"So, Azhui, can you take me to find the Taotie?"
Just as Azhui was about to be unable to withstand that gaze, Su Bai finally asked the most important question.
Azhui secretly let out a sigh of relief.
They were finally back on track.
"Yes." Azhui answered quickly, even with a trace of relief. "But before we set out, there are a few things we need to confirm."
She turned toward Su Bai, her expression becoming serious again.
"First, are you capable of space combat? Space is a vacuum. There is no oxygen, and the temperature is extremely low. Ordinary life-forms cannot survive there."
Su Bai nodded.
"I asked Xiao Xue about it before. Xiao Xue said it wouldn't be a problem."
Azhui nodded and continued asking, "Second, what is your attitude toward the Taotie? Drive them away? Deter them? Or... exterminate them?"
Before you continue
