Chapter 385: Man, I’ve Taken a Fancy to You

The house at night.

The outlines of the furniture were faint in the darkness.

The weak candlelight shone through the gaps in the bamboo curtains, emitting a faint glow that blended perfectly and harmoniously with the thousands of lights outside.

Xu Xi pondered.

He preliminarily set the tone for the sixth simulation.

"In the previous simulation of the Wizard World, I walked the path of a wizard to research death and the Soul."

"But now, in reality, I have already become a True Immortal and True God, my essence, energy, and spirit have fully transcended, and I have reached the Realm of immortality."

"If it were when I first obtained the simulator, the extraordinary power of the Xuanhuan system would indeed have been very useful to me."

"But today, I can only say it is optional."

"Strength is not the focus of this simulation."

"The real focus lies in exploring the essence of the beautiful life simulator. Relying solely on myself is actually not quite enough, but the addition of Mo Li and the others can make up for my shortcomings."

He poured a bowl of water.

Xu Xi drank it while looking at the bright full moon outside.

This simulation was different from the past. With the addition of the five girls, Xu Xi believed that they would certainly be able to figure something out.

After all, at this very moment.

The three red traits he possessed were the best proof.

That was the Supreme power, a real interference with the simulator.

Xu Xi finished the cold water and subconsciously glanced at the Bone Ring on his left hand. He could feel a familiar Aura surging inside.

This was the cheat that came with the Destined Protagonist trait.

In cultivation novels, it was the common ring-bound old man responsible for leading the Destined Protagonist to success.

But now—

"Sevia, are you okay?"

The Bone Ring vibrated twice.

It seemed to be responding to Xu Xi's words, but no further movement occurred.

"Is there some kind of restriction? For example, must I follow the protagonist's process and wait for the ring to unseal?" Xu Xi summoned the simulator panel, lost in thought.

It was not a big problem.

He could afford to wait for this amount of time.

…

[You have a preliminary understanding of your situation.]

[Through inquiries and the books you have read, you discovered that you Transmigrated to the Tianxuan Realm.]

[Divided into East, South, West, North, and Center, there are five territories in the Tianxuan Realm.]

[You clicked your tongue in wonder.]

[You felt that it was worthy of being a Xuanhuan world with a Destined Protagonist.]

[Even the division of the regions followed the naming style you were familiar with.]

[After checking, you found that your current location was a small city in the East Ruins Territory called Cangwu City.]

[The 'you' of the past was the peerless Genius of Cangwu City.]

[But now, 'waste' has become your synonym. Every time you go out, you can always sense strange looks.]

[Some even whisper, discussing your broken engagement.]

"Look, he is that fallen Genius."

"What, he is Xu Xi?"

"Sigh, what a pity. He is so young, how did his body collapse?"

"Poor kid, I heard he is about to be humiliated by someone coming to his house."

[Regarding your fall into being a waste, the people of Cangwu City felt pity, while some secretly mocked you.]

[You were expressionless.]

[You Cultivate at your own pace, striving to revive the Bone Ring as soon as possible.]

[Carefree, casual, not arrogant or impatient.]

[With a calm and indifferent attitude, you waited for the reunion with the Supremes.]

[In the second year of the simulation, you were 17 years old.]

[Your years of Cultivation caused your Realm to loosen. You keenly sensed that you were about to promote from the third stage of Xuan Power to the fourth stage.]

[You realized.]

[Behind the loosening of the Realm was the near completion of the Bone Ring's unsealing.]

[As a Destined Protagonist, you were about to obtain your first Golden Finger and then begin a legendary life.]

[The Realms of the Tianxuan Realm are divided into: Xuan Power, Human Xuan Realm, Earth Xuan Realm, Tianxuan Stage, Dao-Severing Realm, Holy Realm, and Emperor Realm.]

[As the Destined Protagonist of the Tianxuan Realm, your future is immeasurable.]

[Plucking stars and taking the moon, becoming a Saint and claiming the title of Emperor.]

[The future that countless people dream of is clearly visible to you.]

[Finally, in the third year of the simulation, you were 18 years old.]

[At the time of coming of age, your Bone Ring was about to break its seal. You clearly heard the intimate emotions coming from the Soul inside.]

[Destined Protagonist trait is activating… Turning Misfortune into Fortune is activating… Supreme gaze is activating.]

[Your life has reached a major turning point.]

[You are having your engagement broken.]

…

Tianxuan Realm · East Ruins Territory · Cangwu City.

Mountains and ravines.

Beasts roared.

There were ancient remnants carrying mountains as they walked, and there were immortal beasts warring against the heavens and earth.

The great sun hung high, shining majestically on the Tianxuan Realm, casting down endless true fire of the great sun, burning the sky and blooming with light.

Xu Xi opened his eyes, and the Aura around his body returned to his Dantian, recovering its original silence.

"Xuan Power, fourth stage."

"Still a waste among wastes."

"But starting from this year, as the traits exert their influence one after another, my growth speed will be even faster than in the Magic World."

"Mortals Wisdom, with just one red trait, made me the strongest person under the gods."

"Then."

"It is not hard to guess how amazing the final result will be this time with three red traits."

Xu Xi calculated silently.

He did not feel joy in his heart.

Compared to strength, he paid more attention to the exploration of the simulator. Therefore, reuniting with the girls was the most urgent matter at the moment.

"Calculating the time, Yingxue should be coming too."

"According to the tropes of web novel protagonists, the next scene will be Yingxue humiliating me, and then I will work hard."

Xu Xi got up with emotion.

He never expected that he would one day become a protagonist.

It is just a pity that he is too old to perform classic actions like 'gritting teeth until bleeding', 'digging fingernails into palms', or 'showing unwillingness and stubbornness'.

Fortunately, these are all insignificant little problems.

He only needs to go through the engagement-breaking scene.

Then he can trigger the effect of the Destined Protagonist trait.

From then on, he will embark on a path of invincibility.

"After that, when Sevia unseals from the ring, I can explore the simulator more thoroughly with the two Supremes."

Suddenly.

Noisy human voices came from outside.

Tigers roared and apes cried, Dragons neighed and horses whinnied.

The blue sky reflected the brilliance of the red sun.

Amidst the exclamations of countless people in Cangwu City, a huge team appeared on the horizon, riding on wild Vicious Beasts, clad in armor and holding blades, with an extremely strong sense of oppression.

"That, that is!"

"Dragon horses, it's the Wu Family's Dragon horse Vicious Beasts!"

"Too terrifying, actually letting Earth Xuan Realm Vicious Beasts pull the carriage. The daughter of the Wu Family is terrifyingly powerful!"

"What, she is Wu Yingxue?!"

"Hiss—"

Everyone present changed color, and they all gasped in unison.

When Xu Xi went out.

What he saw was such a scene.

The street was empty and quiet, pedestrians separated to the left and right. At the end of the wide road directly opposite, carriages and horses were neighing, and the force of the Vicious Beasts was exerted between their hooves, shaking the air with explosions.

"Is the engagement about to be broken?"

Xu Xi waited quietly for the plot to develop.

The people watching all of this also cooperated very well, sending malice to Xu Xi, the protagonist, at the important turning point of the plot.

Mockery.

Ridicule.

Sarcasm.

Suddenly, the whole scene was silent.

The red and white outfit fluttered in the strong wind.

A fiery figure flashed from the carriage to Xu Xi with an extremely heroic and unrestrained posture, and lifted Xu Xi's chin with a slender finger.

"Man, I've taken a fancy to you. Let's get married."

Wu Yingxue raised the corners of her mouth.

Full of dominance.

Xu Xi: ?

Where did the promised engagement breaking go?

(The ending has already been thought of, the remaining plot is all relaxed and happy scenes)
