Chapter 312: Chapter 255: Return to Blue Star_2

"Did I lose it when I was half-beaten to death?" Xiao Yi looked back but found himself in a strange space.

The polygonal space continuously split in half, creating smaller and smaller spaces which seemed endless.

Even reaching infinitesimally small, smaller than quarks, it kept splitting.

Xiao Yi couldn’t understand anything he was seeing; he instinctively felt he had left the space he was in before.

"Looks like... I probably can’t return to that place," Xiao Yi sighed helplessly. "No choice, next time I see Mom, I’ll just ask her for another one."

Just as Xiao Yi finished speaking, suddenly—a blinding white light attacked him, forcing Xiao Yi to close his eyes.

When Xiao Yi came to, he had returned to Blue Star.

...

"What did you say! Xiao Yi has returned!"

Upon receiving this news, Xu Yingguang didn’t have time to think further and hurried to Xiao Yi’s location.

Seeing Xiao Yi inexplicably brushing his teeth, Xu Yingguang’s hanging heart could finally relax.

"Phew..." Xu Yingguang couldn’t help but exhale deeply.

"...Hm?"

Xiao Yi, who was brushing his teeth, saw Xu Yingguang and greeted him.

"Oh, Old Xu, you’re here, brushing doesn’t prevent greetings, guess I’m still polite."

"..." Seeing Xiao Yi return safely, Xu Yingguang, who was somewhat relieved, couldn’t help his lips twitching.

He thought: I’m here worried sick and this guy still acts so carelessly, it makes me wonder what I’m worrying about... Of course, I’m worried about losing a weapon against the Analog Horror.

Then, Xu Yingguang finally said, "Rinse your mouth first, I can’t understand a thing you’re saying."

"Hello hello hello... bleh!" Xiao Yi spat out the water and restated, "Old Xu, you’re here, not going to lie, I’ve kind of missed you."

"Ah... good, good," Xu Yingguang then asked, "Setting that aside, what happened this time? Why did it take so long for you to return?"

"Did it take that long?" Xiao Yi thought for a moment and answered, "Actually, nothing much. Just got blocked on the way back by two strange guys saying weird things."

"Two strange guys?" Xu Yingguang instantly became alert.

Characters appearing during the instance settlement time were undoubtedly related to the Analog Horror!

Xu Yingguang urgently asked, "Who were those two people? Or what were they? Did they say anything to you?"

Xiao Yi shook his head, "Don’t know, they just kept saying things I couldn’t understand."

"Is that so..." Not getting any useful information was disappointing, but Xu Yingguang didn’t expect much, so he wasn’t too disappointed.

But then, Xu Yingguang suddenly noticed something and asked Xiao Yi again:

"Wait, those two guys... Are you saying you saw two men? Were they ordinary human-shaped humans, or did they have some strange non-human features?"

"Um... just two very ordinary people, nothing special other than looking as handsome as male celebrities."

"I see, they looked like ordinary humans?" Xu Yingguang nodded slightly, seemingly thinking of something.

"However... they probably aren’t ordinary humans," Xiao Yi remarked with some trepidation. "At least their way of attacking was completely beyond my comprehension."

"Fighting?" Upon hearing this, Xu Yingguang had no time to think further and urgently asked, "Did you guys fight? Were you hurt?"

If these figures were directly related to Analog Horror, their strength could be unmatched compared to the enemies within the Analog Horror instance—such entities must not be underestimated!

"Ah, it’s nothing, it’s nothing," Xiao Yi waved his hand, "Although there was a bit of a fight, I eventually won. I delivered a grand speech and managed to make them retreat."

"Grand speech..."

Setting aside what Xiao Yi actually did at that time, seeing his carefree demeanor suggested that he likely hadn’t been hurt. As long as he was okay, that was what mattered most.

"Anyway, it’s good you’re not hurt..." Xu Yingguang said, then couldn’t help but ask Xiao Yi, "But, on another note... why are you brushing your teeth?"

"Oh, that." Xiao Yi explained, "It’s nothing much, just that I seemed to have been beaten into a pulp by those two, which left me with this strange sensation of chewing my own flesh in my mouth. So, I wanted to brush my teeth."

Xu Yingguang: "...Huh? Pulp?"

Regardless of how much Xiao Yi insisted he was fine, boasting about his adrenaline, Xu Yingguang still insisted he get a thorough check-up.

After all, anyone with a bit of common sense knew that adrenaline doesn’t have the power to revive one from being beaten to a pulp. How could he be fine after that?

Finally, after confirming that Xiao Yi was indeed alright, Xu Yingguang’s roller-coaster of a heart could settle down once again.

It seemed, then, that it must have been Xiao Yi’s ability that allowed him to recover from such severe injuries back to his original state.

"...Anyway, you’ve experienced quite a bit during this period."

Setting aside what exactly happened during the time Xiao Yi was out of contact, Xu Yingguang naturally knew about the ordeal Xiao Yi endured in this instance. Thus, he said:

"This time in the Analog Horror has indeed been tough on you. Although I have many questions, before that, you should go and get some rest. We’ll talk after you’ve recuperated."

"Rest?" Xiao Yi shook his head, "I’m actually not tired at all. I don’t feel the need to rest."

Perhaps it was because his body had been reshaped, but at that moment, Xiao Yi truly didn’t feel tired at all—in fact, he felt light and seemed to have endless energy.

Simultaneously, Xiao Yi remembered something and thus said to Xu Yingguang:

"By the way, Old Xu, I need a favor."

"What is it? Just tell me straight," Xu Yingguang waved his hand, "I’ve said before that I’ll do everything I can to meet your requests, even if it’s something major. There’s nothing we can’t achieve."

"That’s good to hear. It’s not really a big deal," Xiao Yi said, "It’s just... Old Xu ah, I want to learn how to cook. Can you find a chef to teach me?"

Xiao Yi still remembered being criticized for his cooking and had made up his mind—he would master the culinary arts!

At this, Xu Yingguang’s reaction was...

Xu Yingguang: "...Huh?"

Indeed, this wasn’t anything major; rather, it seemed trivially simple, but the problem was... Xu Yingguang had actually witnessed Xiao Yi’s astonishing culinary ’skills’.

So he knew very well, would anyone, after learning of the situation, really agree to teach Xiao Yi how to cook?

The answer was definitely yes, but... Xu Yingguang recalled reviewing the reports on Xiao Yi’s past driving lessons, and even as a mere spectator, he felt palpitations, later giving the instructor extra compensation.

In such circumstances, Xu Yingguang found it hard to ask someone to endure Xiao Yi’s ’torture’ again.

Therefore, Xu Yingguang couldn’t help but ask, "Do you... really have to learn cooking? Perhaps it’s better to go out and have fun, relax and do something you enjoy."

"No." Xiao Yi was resolute, shaking his head, "I definitely want to learn how to cook."

"...Alright then."

They say fortune favors the bold, so the best Xu Yingguang could do was to offer a better reward and... start looking for a chef with a strong enough heart.
