Xiaobai's Love in Another World

Chapter 414 Giving Candy
Upon hearing this, Mirror blinked, as if she had something to say but also seemed to have nothing to say.

Hoshigo Mi turned around and leaned her head against the bar on the side of the seat.

The two guys' extremely unusual behavior made her even more puzzled.

"Tell me what's going on."

Mirror Shadow wasn't one to hide her feelings, and upon hearing this, she immediately dropped the pretense, "You know it was me who did it, right? I was the one who started it on the mountain."

“…Oh.” So that’s what it was. Bai Lingshan now understood why she was so worried. “Yu Hongye asked you to do it, didn’t he?”

Jingying was originally under Yu Hongye's control, so she naturally followed Yu Hongye's arrangements. She didn't tell Han Chenfeng because she didn't want the matter to become too complicated.

"So, are you going to look for him?" Mirror Image also became curious.

"No." She knew exactly how he would respond if she contacted him. "Contacting him is pointless; I did it, so what can you do to me?"

She couldn't do anything to him, so she just let it go.

Thinking back to the unfortunate Jihao of Huigange, she wasn't much better off.

"No wonder it was done by the same person."

Mirror Shadow looked ashamed. "I didn't expect you two to discuss this in detail in person. Usually, given your personalities, you would only think about it in your hearts and not say it out loud."

When she heard them mention it, she was both shocked and surprised. And when Han Chenfeng inquired about her abilities, she had a bad feeling. "Thank you for not saying it was me. Although I'm not afraid to admit it, it would have been unbecoming of me..."

"……"Fine.

“Little follower, Xiao Mi is also hiding something from you. Do you want to hear it?” Xinghu Xiao Mi interrupted them.

Bai Lingshan then remembered that Xinghu Xiaomi was also acting strangely.

"You tell me, I'll listen."

Mirror Image was also curious about her: "Do kittens have worries too?"

But Jingying ignored Xinghu Xiaomi's words. She turned her face and said with a serious expression, "Xiaomi, actually it's not Xiaomi. Xiaomi is the cat beside Xiaomi. When the red flowers lit up the ground, that Xiaomi disappeared. The current Xiaomi is a kitten with her memories and appearance."

The tone was very solemn and the expression was very firm, but wasn't the sentence a bit of a tongue twister?

Bai Lingshan and Jingying looked at each other, seemingly thinking the same thing.

At this moment, Xinghu Xiaomi sighed inwardly. If you don't understand her detailed explanation, you can switch to a simpler version: "Xiaomi is a kitten. She only follows those she approves of. From now on, she will only protect you."

That should make it understandable.

Xinghu Xiaomi is waiting.

Suddenly, Jingying's eyes darkened, and she opened her folding fan to block the eyes that were staring directly at Bai Lingshan.

Xinghu Xiaomi was startled by this.

"do you have any opinion?"

As he glanced at her, he raised his hand and pushed her unsightly folding fan aside.

"No objection, I just think you talk too much." Mirror Shadow sneered, naturally placing the paper fan back in front of her as she pushed it out.

She waved her small fan, as if she hadn't done anything at all.

"Oh?" Xinghu Xiaomi scoffed, staring at her with a playful look for a moment before golden light enveloped her, transforming her into a silver-gray kitten.

"Don't you know? Little followers like talkative people."

With a meow and a push of her hind legs, the kitten leaped steadily into Bai Lingshan's arms.

She likes to circle around her legs a few times to find a comfortable position, so that some people can see their intimacy that no one else can match, "unlike some guys who secretly watch and get jealous after a while."

"..."

“…Stinky cat.” Mirror Shadow just snorted and ignored her. Fortunately, Mirror Shadow didn’t bother with her, otherwise she wouldn’t know how to mediate the fight.

Looking out the window at the darkness, Bai Lingshan sighed inwardly.

The Star Coin vehicle sped forward and soon arrived at the Jingguo station.

After getting off the bus, Bai Lingshan returned to the Clock Tower.

At this moment, only Gu Que and Ke Na Hao were in the golden birdcage house. Yu Hongye was not there, so she could not summon the wood spirit to treat her. After greeting them, she went into her own room.

She didn't speak all night and slept until the next morning. After turning off the lights that created the darkness, she went to West Village.

Breakfast at Xi Yi Village remains the same: a quick meal followed by returning the utensils to the kitchen.

When she has no missions, she only has spirit training to do, so on her usual day, she will just stay in this spirit training ground.

On the spirit taming arena, Bai Lingshan looked around as she faced the rampaging spirit. So many hours had passed, but she still hadn't seen Yu Hongye.

At the end, Bai Lingshan came to the golden cage where the camellia bird was imprisoned. After skillfully manipulating the barrier, she removed the screen that was blocking their way.

The camellia bird, curled up on the ground, heard the sound and opened its eyes.

She looked very haggard this time, somewhat different from last time.

She still remembered the last time, the camellia's frenzied, violent howls, and the rope that was shattered again and again.

"Little Bai'er..."

The weak murmur made her take a step forward, and she looked at the woman's golden-red eyes with great surprise: "You've regained consciousness?"

The imprisoned berserk spirit needs someone to challenge her to a fight to reduce her berserk value in order to regain her self-awareness. Since Camellia Bird was imprisoned, no one has dared to touch her. Who would have thought that she could resist that terrible berserk state on her own?

"...Thank you, I got the candy, it's really sweet."

Camellia opened one hand, revealing a candy stick. She glanced at everything outside the cage, her eyes filled with sorrow. "I never thought I'd lose control and end up locked up here. The golden cage in the Spirit Taming Grounds that holds berserk spirits is a permanent prison. My brother must be heartbroken."

His tone was nonchalant, as if he had seen through life and death and had no more attachments.

Bai Lingshan looked down at the candies in her hand and then hid them back.

Fire spirits that violate the rules will be permanently banned from the Spirit Taming Grounds; even if they regain consciousness, they will never be free again.

"I'm sorry, I can't help you."

Camellia Bird was very clear-headed. "It's the rule of the Jing Kingdom that cannot be violated, Little White. Don't let my sake affect your relationship, and besides..."

She suddenly fell silent, her eyes lowered and then raised again, as if she had remembered something.

"And what?" Bai Lingshan wanted to know.

"It's nothing, it's just... do you have any more candy? I'm afraid I'll never be able to eat such sweet candy again."

She clearly changed the subject, which puzzled Bai Lingshan.

At this moment, several brightly colored lollipops appeared in the eyes of the camellia bird.

She took it, first sniffed it, and then stuffed it into her clothes.

"Thank you, you're a good human."

Afterwards, Bai Lingshan briefly told her about what happened after she was imprisoned, and Chahua Niao listened very attentively.

The imprisoned rampaging spirit can be visited, but the duration must be carefully controlled, otherwise it will be used as leverage, and it will be difficult to visit it again in the future.

Back at the Clock Tower, her day's activities were complete. She always had a habit when entering the Golden Birdcage House: she would first glance at what Mushroom was doing.

With that glance, she saw Yu Hongye feeding Gu Que with a bowl and spoon.

Upon closer inspection, the liquid inside the transparent crystal bowl was actually blood red.
