Chapter 192: Chapter 165: Malice Toward the Little Pink-Haired

Jiang Xiao glanced at Mu Xitang.

His heart remained untroubled.

Forget it.

Since they had already dug, there was no point in arguing anymore.

"Hand me the rules."

The bearded man bowed obsequiously as he handed the rules to Jiang Xiao.

Though he came from a nation of warriors, when facing a man from Dragon Country revered as a god, licking boots was still necessary.

After idly standing around for several minutes, Mu Xitang’s face flushed slightly.

However, as the brain of the operation, how could she not be involved in reviewing the rules!

So, the two bright minds leaned in together.

"Rule one: You have five days to reach Romia Cathedral in the city (initially four people per team, the team leader has the right to kick out team members, the more members in the team, the greater the difficulty)."

"Rule two: You may use anything you see or touch (everything)."

"Rule three: If you want to maintain your stamina, you must ensure you consume three proper meals a day."

"Rule four: If you enter a cake shop with no surveillance, never stay alone with a little girl."

"Rule five: There are some nice things in the town, but you’ll need the luck to get them."

"Rule six: Everyone here has a devout belief in Romia Cathedral."

"Rule seven: If you take modern transportation, you must find a way to keep its mood stable."

"Rule eight: If you choose to ride the subway, remember not to make eye contact with Them, don’t bend over to tie your shoelaces, and remove any reflective objects from your shoes beforehand."

"Rule nine: The map is large, and unpredictable factors have increased. If you break a taboo, the difficulty of this Kaidan will rise."

The back of the paper had a simple map.

Wow!

It really was enormous.

The little dot marking Jiang Xiao’s location showed that the vast pasture in front of him was just a corner.

If they relied on Route 11 to reach Romia Cathedral in five days, they would have to gallop without delay.

Wrong?

This rule seemed somewhat unreasonable.

It was just too far; even without obstacles, getting to the cathedral would be exhausting.

Moreover, meeting the requirement of three proper meals a day during such an intense journey wasn’t going to be easy.

"Hmm~"

Mu Xitang, rubbing her tiny chin with a fuzzy pink expression, seemed to make sense.

"Little sister Mu Xitang, do you have some unique insights?"

"Yes!"

Mu Xitang nodded.

"I suspect there’s something wrong with this cathedral!"

The three of them eagerly awaited her next words with bated breath.

That’s it?

Just this?

Oh man, damn, this native seems pretty mediocre!

The three couldn’t help but feel deeply disappointed.

They realized that this little pink-haired girl wasn’t hiding anything valuable; she was just pretending to be smart.

At first, they thought she was a native from Kaidan who might know some secrets of the Kaidan world.

It seemed they would still have to rely on Jiang Xiao!

"God Jiang, since there aren’t any treasures buried here, shall we set off right away?"

Looking at the endless road ahead, Curly urged.

"Us? What do you mean by us? You want me to carry the three of you burdens?"

Jiang Xiao pointed to the rule clearly stating that the more people, the greater the difficulty.

His cold and ruthless words pierced their hearts.

"Uh, actually..."

Just as the three were about to awkwardly reveal their living arrangements down to the last detail,

little pink-haired’s eyes lit up— wasn’t this the heavenly bestowed minion?

Daddy may not want, but she did!

Thinking this, Mu Xitang immediately clutched Jiang Xiao’s sleeve.

"Daddy~ Take us with you, it’s more fun with more people~ Please, please~"

Since his daughter pleaded, there was nothing more to say.

"Then you three better keep up. If you die, I’ll bury you all."

The three unfortunate souls immediately cast grateful glances at the little girl.

Though not so bright,

she indeed was a good person...

Having recruited her future three minions, Mu Xitang happily jumped onto Jiang Xiao’s back without saying another word.

She even pointed at a distant herd of big-horned dairy cows.

"Daddy, Xi Tang has never had cow’s milk before; the kind they sold in our village was just watered-down drinks..."

Jiang Xiao eyed the pitiful-looking Mu Xitang and mercilessly exposed her.

"You’ve had it before, you drank it in the cafeteria and amusement park, and some leaders even gave you some special supply milk that money can’t buy. You sneakily hid it under your bed, thinking I didn’t see it, huh?"

"But, but this is milk from living cows, I haven’t had this fresh type before, I want it, I want it~"

Mu Xitang had her eyes on this herd of dairy cows since they arrived at the pasture.

If she didn’t speak up now, she might lose her chance once they left.

Dairy cows?

Landing in a pasture?

Why would there be a herd of dairy cows here all of a sudden?

"Please, Daddy, just a little bit, I’ll be fine with just a little bit."

Jiang Xiao glanced at the rules again, then at the map on the back, and began to understand some things.

Jiang Xiao made an "ojbk" gesture at Mu Xitang.

"Don’t move, wait for me."

The three grudge seeds: ...

Honestly, I’ve never felt so speechless in my life.

This is Analog Horror, bro! Time is tight, and the task is heavy, and you still have the mood to find milk for your daughter?

The barrage comments began to complain.

[What’s going on? Everyone else has already started, but we’re still stuck at the farm without moving.]

[Oh man, I admit Mu Xitang is cute, but bringing her along is just ridiculous!]

[Isn’t she just a drag?]

[I’m kind of annoyed with her now, just my personal opinion, don’t argue, you win if you argue.]

[She’s just a little girl, and it’s easy for kids to act coquettishly toward the people they depend on. Think about it, didn’t you act coy with your parents when you were little?]

[It’s not about whether she’s coquettish or not, the problem is she shouldn’t be brought along as a burden!]

[She’s only five or six years old! Can you be a little more rational?]

[Rational my ass! Let me ask you, hasn’t she been holding up the progress? This is just the start; who knows what trouble she’ll cause later?]

[I suggest the state directly intervene, and next time don’t let Jiang Xiao bring her along. She’s just absolutely nauseating.]

[Can you not be so malicious towards a little girl? She doesn’t understand anything yet. Besides, they said just a little milk would do, is that really necessary?]

[As a father, I understand Jiang Xiao, but what I don’t get is, they’ve only known each other for so short a time, do they need to be so clingy? Even entering Kaidan together? Doesn’t affection need to be cultivated gradually?]

[Anyway, I think the little pink-haired girl is quite good, and also, I think there’s clearly something off with this herd of cows, don’t forget, Jiang Xiao didn’t agree to Mu Xitang’s request right away.]

[Hehehe, let’s hope so...]

[We’re not blaming the little pink-haired girl for being ignorant, but why does she have to enter Kaidan with Jiang Xiao? Would it kill her to stay outside?]

[Hehehe, I actually hope this burden of a pink-haired girl dies right in Kaidan, that way Jiang Xiao wouldn’t have to spare the energy to look after her.]

[Better dead, things are creepy as it is, if she doesn’t die, she’ll eventually become a menace.]

[Fuck you! Shut the hell up everyone!]

A verified gold badge ID appeared and calmed the tumultuous comments.

After sending the message, Director Li slammed the table hard!

If these people knew that Mu Xitang almost froze to death in a cold, helpless world while waiting for her dad,

would they still say such things?

Isn’t she just clinging to Jiang Xiao?

Is a five or six-year-old girl clinging to her dad now a mistake?

Moreover, eighty percent of the comments shared the same IP address.

Clearly, someone is intentionally trying to stir up malice against the little pink-haired girl!

Has the world gone mad, and yet, some people still can’t let go?!

"Block all those accounts with the same device and IP!"

"Forget it, directly find local personnel and pull them over here, let’s see what’s going on!"

The tiger doesn’t show his might and thinks I’m just a ’Hello Kitty’!

As one grows older, it’s hardest to watch little girls like Mu Xitang getting cursed like this!

Doesn’t Mu Xitang know Kaidan is dangerous?

Isn’t she just worried about Jiang Xiao’s safety and that’s why she wanted to go in with him?

Although... maybe she overestimated her intelligence...

Thinking of this, Director Li grabbed a document and knocked on Dr. Sun’s head.

"See what your brilliant idea has done! My little pink-haired girl becoming the prominent target in Kaidan!"

"Oh calm down, even though Mu Xitang looks dumb, think about it, isn’t Jiang Xiao a bit more normal?"

Hmm?

Correct.

Dr. Sun’s words did make sense.

"Basically, we just changed the prominent target from Jiang Xiao to the little pink-haired girl. Remember the past, weren’t Jiang Xiao’s ’prominent target’ moments more outrageous than the little pink-haired girl’s?"

"No matter how you look at it, we’re ahead. Think about it, if not for the pink-haired girl pulling Jiang Xiao escorte-initially to the rancher’s yard, who knows where Jiang Xiao might have wandered off to by now!"

Right~

The prerequisite for clearing this round definitely includes reaching Romia Cathedral.

Previous Kaidans had fairly small maps, Jiang Xiao could win by just messing around.

Now, the map is obviously huge, probably covering most of the city.

Do you expect Jiang Xiao to randomly stumble upon the cathedral?

Dream on.

If it’s not found within five days, would Jiang Xiao be trapped forever in Kaidan, resulting in Dragon Country’s challenge failure?

Thinking of this, Director Li broke out in a cold sweat.

Thank goodness for the little pink-haired girl!

Uh.

Though their guess was roughly correct.

The real reason for Jiang Xiao’s stability wasn’t Mu Xitang’s presence.

It mainly lay in Sister Bao’s inherent nature...

Though she might act foolish sometimes, she remains composed.

As Jiang Xiao approached the herd of cows, the comments began to stir again.

From a distance, they couldn’t see clearly, but as they got closer, they too noticed something odd about the herd.

[Isn’t that cow too big?]

[Eh, brother Vortex Mouth here, cough, what did you say was too big?]

[Damn! I advise you not to be too outrageous, bro, is that even a cow?]

[Doesn’t matter, I’m not only into feet but also Fu Rui! Putting your heart on your sleeve, aren’t these cows beautiful?]

[Cough, I feel like Jiang Xiao is about to go mad, nobody understands his illness cycle better than I do.]

[That’s right, he’s been normal for so long, by my calculations, his quiet phase should be over...]

[You call his recent behavior of trusting a five-year-old girl’s nonsense about farming normal?]

[Relative speaking, such events are indeed quite normal for God Jiang.]
