After Admitting The Wrong God They Regret It - Chapter 16
Behind Xinghui is the robust and powerful body of the man, his spirit power is crimson, and his body temperature is high. Just approaching him feels like being near a blazing furnace. For Xinghui, whose body temperature is on the lower side, it’s like standing next to a giant heater.
As he raises his head in confusion to the words he just heard, Yuanyuan chuckles, his tone filled with meaning, “It’s not impossible.”
After all, the little god can’t see, so wouldn’t it ultimately rely on touch?
He raises his hand, undoing the button at his collar.
Xinghui: ???
Since he can only see the other’s spirit power and can’t see what exactly the person is doing, he can’t guess the messy thoughts in this person’s head.
But the little god hasn’t forgotten his main purpose. He takes a few steps forward, emerging from Yuanyuan’s embrace.
“When are we going to the storage?”
Yuanyuan has just unbuttoned his collar, leaving space for his wings behind. Suddenly hearing this question, he pauses, his eyelids twitching.
Looking at the calm and beautiful face of the little god, he squints.
Xinghui doesn’t understand Yuanyuan, and Yuanyuan equally doesn’t understand Xinghui.
Why is he so unpredictable?
Deciding to unbutton the shirt halfway, saying that if he doesn’t want to look, then he won’t?
Is he walking the dog?
“Let’s go now.”
Listening to Yuanyuan’s tone, Xinghui feels that this big guy is acting strange again. However, he still follows behind him.
The storage room has people coming and going, but since they don’t communicate much with places outside the desolate star system, it’s limited to things like mining equipment, mainly used by the demon clan.
Yuanyuan introduces a few items, and Xinghui listens attentively.
Finally, they reach a corner.
The scent of dust fills the air.
“Here, there are airships used by the demon clan more than a decade ago. But since the cosmic storm, it’s extremely dangerous to travel outside. Each trip requires a significant amount of manpower and resources to ensure safety. Even I wouldn’t easily attempt to travel alone. So, these small airships have been idle.”
Yuanyuan’s tone is casual.
But Xinghui can sense some other implications from it.
His body instinctively stiffens. Facing such a dangerous demon, cold sweat has already broken out. But he maintains the dignity of a god, showing no signs of panic. He feels like his plan to find an opportunity to escape has been exposed.
He helped the demon clan, indirectly letting them know he’s useful to them. For a race like this, knowing that he wants to escape, and especially considering he initially landed in the wrong star system, coming specifically to save them, he realizes it’s a frightening situation. The terrifying rumors about the demon clan still linger in Xinghui’s mind.
The nervous little god’s body freezes, the strands of hair on his head slightly shaking, reflecting his anxiety. However, his face remains steady, as if he hasn’t grasped the other layer of meaning.
“Anyway, it’s extremely dangerous. Presumably, no one would be foolish enough to run out on their own, right?”
Yuanyuan still wears a refined and gentle smile, though the authenticity of that smile is uncertain.
“Maybe, why are you asking about these things?”
Xinghui raises his head.
The face is extremely calm; Yuanyuan feels like this little god is almost like a robot. He shows the expression suitable for each occasion, and except for subtle movements revealing his emotions, it’s hard to understand what he’s thinking.
From the earnest insistence on gaining the faith of the demon clan, protecting them, to accompanying them into the mines, finding a new energy mine, and even getting injured despite his fragility.
Just now, Yuanyuan felt like this little god could jump onto the starship and fly away at any moment. But now, looking at Xinghui’s calm and somewhat proud face, he’s less certain.
Did he misunderstand?
Is this little god really ambitious to conquer their demon clan and gain their faith?
After all, considering that he specifically boarded their starship and followed them, even wanting to touch Yuanyuan’s wings, it doesn’t seem like he’s trying to escape.
Thinking about this, Yuanyuan’s hand pats the starship, not sure where it touches.
After two humming sounds from the mechanical components on the starship, a continuous voice is heard.
“Hello, the route has been set, and the starship can automatically navigate to other star systems. Please voice input the destination for inquiry, and I will navigate for you.”
Xinghui: !
Hold on!
This big guy seems to be suspicious already!
With his neck stiff, Xinghui records the route but deliberately doesn’t act.
Yuanyuan, unable to see any flaws, is about to speak.
Suddenly, the door to the storage room is forcefully opened.
“Boss! Huan Yun is not doing well! The genetic disease is progressing too fast!”
Xinghui and Yuanyuan turn their heads simultaneously.
“Escort Lord God back to his room; I’ll go check.”
Yuanyuan’s tone loses its usual playfulness, instantly turning cold.
“I’ll go with you.”
Xinghui reacts swiftly.
At this moment, Yuanyuan has no time to consider much. He takes a few steps forward, turning to see Xinghui abruptly trying to match his pace, awkwardly taking a few quick steps forward. Suddenly stopping, he turns around, bends down, and stares straight into Xinghui’s eyes with a pair of dark red eyes.
“Are you sure you really want to go?”
“Sure.”
Xinghui only hears a long sigh by his ear.
The warm breath gets even closer.
“Then, hold on tight.”
Xinghui hasn’t figured out what he means yet, but his knee is lifted by a large hand, and he is lifted into Yuanyuan’s arms. With large strides, Yuanyuan heads towards the control room.
At first, Xinghui is a bit stiff, but later, he compromises.
Seeing the speed at which this guy is moving forward, he realizes he was walking too slowly.
Compared to the dignity of a god, one person’s life is indeed more important.
However, even though he knows they’re in a hurry, having a god carried like a princess in one’s arms—
Xinghui can only keep a straight face and silently wish that there are as few people passing by as possible, even fewer if possible.
Don’t ask, if you ask, it’s because he still wants to save face.
In the end, passing through who knows how many strands of spiritual energy, Xinghui feels numb. But when they reach the destination, surrounded by a circle of spiritual energy, Xinghui still feels a bit suffocated.
“The boss is here!”
“Even the little god is here—”
At this point, Yuanyuan finally puts Xinghui down. The moment his feet touch the ground, Xinghui stands up straight, looking at Yuanyuan.
“Where are the demon clan members with severe genetic diseases? Take me to see.”
The god with soft, slightly curled black hair opens his eyes wide, speaking with a calm and composed tone, stabilizing the somewhat chaotic atmosphere.
Strangely, it gives people a sense of security.
But in reality, Xinghui is a bit anxious too, but gods can never panic no matter the situation, that’s what the books say.
“People are inside, and the energy stones are out of control! He endured for too long and let other demon clan members use the energy stones, causing his condition to progress too quickly.” With the sound of the door being forcefully opened, Yin Fan’s voice echoes.
Xinghui has just glanced inside the door.
Then he hears the wind-like running sound by his ear.
He turns his head.
Huanzi’s familiar spiritual energy is rushing toward him.
Author’s note:
Xinghui: Help, I really want to save face, who understands?
Yuanyuan: Actually, logical analysis tells me he wants to escape because he can’t get faith, but I can’t let him run. But in reality, he also wants to touch my wings—
Today is still about the struggles between the dignity of a god and the bold actions of a god, pulling and tearing each other to the limits, haha.
