When Xiao Ye saw Bai Xian'er, his expression froze.
"White floral dress..."
His tone was heavy. Xiao Ye's phone also rang.
Xiao Ye saw a message from his disciple, [Master, I've arrived. Did you see my floral dress?]
Bai Xian'er was beautiful and delicate. Although now impoverished, her natural beauty was enhanced by a touch of fragility.
Xiao Ye sat in the coffee shop, his gaze fixed on Bai Xian'er.
She was too eye-catching; Xiao Ye couldn't help but see her.
However.
Xiao Ye's expression was one of shock. He had just realized.
Bai Xian'er was his disciple in an online game!
He had mentored this little disciple for two years in the game.
Upon learning of his disciple's plight, Xiao Ye had even offered substantial assistance.
In any case, he was wealthy now. But, Xiao Ye had never imagined that this disciple would be Bai Xian'er!
Although she had also said she was from this city and had once been an indulged young lady.
Bai Xian'er had hidden the truth of being accidentally swapped at birth and her changed family from Xiao Ye.
Xiao Ye had simply assumed his disciple had run away from home and was now facing some difficulties.
He stood up, unable to remain calm.
Xiao Ye found it incredibly ironic that, at the end of his life, he had been looking forward to meeting Bai Xian'er, the person he disliked the most.
He wondered what Bai Xian'er's expression would be if she knew he was the Master she admired.
How unbelievable would her pretty face become?
But.
Xiao Ye did not let Bai Xian'er see him. Because of the two years of constant companionship in the game.
He had also come to regard his little disciple as someone close.
If he hadn't had feelings for his disciple, how could he have agreed to meet her?
Xiao Ye picked up his phone with trembling hands, holding onto a sliver of hope.
[Disciple, did you wear a floral dress and white sneakers?]
After a while.
Xiao Ye saw Bai Xian'er stop. She looked down at her phone.
[Master, did you see me?]
When he received this message, Xiao Ye had completely given up hope.
He skirted around Bai Xian'er's figure and left the coffee shop directly.
Bai Xian'er also received a new reply, [Let's cancel our meeting!]
Standing outside, Xiao Ye saw Bai Xian'er freeze. Her face went from disappointment to sadness.
It was crystal clear.
Bai Xian'er had long since lost her pride. She replied to Xiao Ye's message with great caution.
[Master, you saw me, and then you didn't like me?]
Xiao Ye's gaze was complex. He smiled bitterly and murmured, "Why does it have to be you?"
He turned his stiff body and walked away.
Bai Xian'er remained foolishly in the coffee shop, waiting all afternoon until nightfall.
Her Master never replied again.
...
The people of Blue Star finally understood. They thought the swapped identities were absurd enough.
They never expected that in the cycle of reincarnation, Xiao Ye and Bai Xian'er also had a master-disciple relationship.
Bai Xian'er even wanted to have an online relationship with Xiao Ye, secretly admiring her Master.
No longer able to deceive herself, Bai Xian'er no longer cursed or hated Xiao Ye.
She stood there, stunned.
"How could it be like this..."
It was impossible!
How could her Master be Xiao Ye?
The Xiao Ye who had stolen her parents and bullied her everywhere in school?
"Xiao Ye, so you were my Master. You were there that day and recognized me?"
The more Bai Xian'er thought about it, the more absurd it seemed. She suddenly realized.
How embarrassing it was for Ye Qingrou and the others to cry so much for Xiao Ye, when she had so confidently declared that she and Xiao Ye had no romantic entanglement.
But.
Bai Xian'er collapsed as she accepted the information, "So, my love has long belonged to you..."
The person she loved was also the person she hated the most.
"This lifetime's reincarnation must also be because General Bai owes Xiao Ye, right?"
The people of Blue Star couldn't guess the plot ahead at all.
They could only see Bai Xian'er being devastated and heartbroken.
Bai Xian'er's pale face, her voice trembling, "Xiao Ye, could this all be your scheme? Your way of toying with me!"
"The Master I love is Xiao Ye, why does it have to be you, Xiao Ye..."
Her gaze swept towards the surrounding barriers. Tears rolled down Bai Xian'er's face.
Bai Xian'er's eyes were vacant.
With this, she no longer knew.
How to continue hating Xiao Ye.
On Blue Star, they were clearly sworn enemies.
Why did they have to show her these things?
Why?!
...
[Bai Xian'er's whitewashing value: forty percent.]
Xiao Ye sat on the grand hall, his gaze fixed on the screen.
Seeing that it was getting dark, the system said to Xiao Ye, [I'll pause the judgment platform screen for now. It's too late, and everyone should get some rest.]
To finish watching Xiao Ye's memories in one go, the people of Blue Star hadn't slept for three or four days.
Xiao Ye, editing until now, had also not had proper rest.
[Then let's release it tomorrow. I'll find a room to sleep.]
Xiao Ye also knew that the Blue Star Alliance couldn't break through the barrier for at least three days.
He left the grand hall and went outside.
Gu Feng and the others saw Xiao Ye and respectfully led him towards a room.
As they passed the monster pigsty, Xiao Ye faintly heard a man's pained voice.
Gu Feng and the others saw Xiao Ye's confusion and quickly explained, "Hao Duoyu is inside!"
Xiao Ye glanced meaningfully at the pigsty, imagining Hao Duoyu's current situation... dancing with rutting pigs.
Zhao Chen, carrying a food tray, bumped into Xiao Ye, cursing.
Seeing Xiao Ye, he quickly reported, "Master, the captured female war god is on a hunger strike. She refuses to eat anything!"
"Tomorrow I'll take Gu Xiaosu to the monster arena."
Gu Feng and the others were stunned. "Monster arena? You intend to..."
"The monster arena has very strong dark energy. I will let her absorb it into her body."
Xiao Ye's gaze swept over them lightly, and he said slowly, "Only by making her like us can she truly repent and feel empathy."
Zhao Chen and the others looked at him with fanaticism.
Xiao Ye intended to turn the female war god into an infected!
A protector of Blue Star becoming a reviled infected?
Gu Feng and the others were excited just thinking about it.
Xiao Ye went to the house he used to live in.
He happened to see Xiao Xi come out. Her eyes met Xiao Ye's, and she smiled obediently, "Ye, I've cleaned the room."
Xiao Ye's heart warmed slightly. He said gently to Xiao Xi.
"Goodnight."
Xiao Xi waved goodnight to Xiao Ye.
This was Xiao Ye's first day back. Their future.
Would there be countless goodnights?
The next day.
The scorching sun of Blue Star shone upon the City of God Slayers.
Gu Xiaosu was locked in a room, her lips cracked from thirst.
But.
The moment she opened her eyes and woke up, her pure face froze.
Because Gu Xiaosu saw a man standing in front of her.
Xiao Ye emanated powerful dark energy, his gaze chilling as he looked at her.
"Gu Xiaosu..."
Xiao Ye leaned close to Gu Xiaosu, looking at her pale face. "Daylight has broken. It's time for us to be on our way."
