I am a demonic cultivator, not a capitalist with a conscience.

Chapter 116 Resurrection from the Dead (46)

Taking a deep breath, Principal Liu was fully prepared.

He stood up with a steady gaze, his expression constantly changing from the moment he stood up, transforming into a fawning smile in a fraction of a second.

He bowed naturally, positioning himself in the most harmless manner, and asked in a friendly tone, "Mr. Chen, what brings you here! Please have a seat! Old Zheng, what are you standing there for... Holy crap!"

The once lifeless headmaster suddenly stood up and, in the blink of an eye, completed a series of actions, soaking the fruit in water and pulling it from the bench, with a speed as fast as a ghost.

You've been hiding your true strength, kid!
No wonder you're from a morally upright high school; you really know how to suck up.

Ignoring the principal's angry gaze, the director spoke to Chen Yu in an unprecedentedly gentle tone: "Mr. Chen, you can just call me if you need anything, why come in person? Do you have a lot of homework lately? Is your studies tough? Are your shoulders sore? Let me give you a massage."

Taking the tea, Chen Yu said earnestly, "Director, I still prefer your unruly side."

"Mr. Chen, you're joking. I was young and naive before, and I spoke a bit recklessly. Please feel free to give me any instructions, and I will definitely handle them thoroughly and transparently for you."

"Oh, a new dream. Please experience it and tell me your thoughts."

The director's lips twitched immediately.

Chen Yu's dreamscape is incredibly depressing; after playing it, everyone cried and said it was great.

In particular, Liu Xiao still occasionally reminisces about the dream he prepared for Huo De Xing Jun, and then cries out, "I killed my son again."

However, this is also an opportunity!
A way to change the impression Mr. Chen had of me!

Therefore, the director took a moment to mentally prepare himself, and then said earnestly, "Leave it to me, I will definitely not let you down, Mr. Chen."

"That's good. First, there's the main storyline, which requires immersing yourself in the dream world. Then you can use your phone to activate the external display device and start the side quests. The main and side quests complement each other. You can play the main quest, then switch to the side quests when you get tired of the main quest, and then switch back to the main quest when you get tired of the side quests."

"Can this still happen?"

The unique gameplay made the director feel very novel, and after learning how to use it, he immediately leaned back in his chair and drifted into a dream.

Chen Yu glanced at the external display device that the other party had activated and said softly, "Not bad, Director."

"What's good?" asked Principal Liu, who was watching them nervously from the side.

"You're lucky, you drew a good lot. So, Principal, you can use this one."

Liu then noticed that Chen Yu had brought two external display devices, one pink and one blue.

The pink one was taken by the director, so I can only use the blue one.

When the principal found out that the fan was actually the lucky one, he felt like the sky had fallen.

Why should a depressing dream be divided into good and bad?

Mr. Chen, do you want me dead?!
However, he had no choice but to copy the dream, pick up the external display device, and then immerse himself in the dream.

It was pitch black in front of me, and the surroundings were very quiet and even a bit stuffy.

The principal, immersed in darkness, waited for a while and found that the dream had not yet begun, and the surroundings were getting hotter and hotter.

Puzzled, he reached out and found that there was a thick wall just ten centimeters away from him, and a light tap could produce a dull echo.

It's a coffin...

Was I buried alive?
After confirming that what was beside him was a coffin, Liu Xiao suddenly realized that he had actually entered a dream and was buried.

After realizing his situation, Principal Liu immediately reached out nervously and tried to push the coffin in front of him.

He was a little afraid that the coffin wouldn't open and he might be trapped there forever. He was also afraid that the coffin would open and he would see the nightmare he would never forget for the rest of his life.

To his surprise, the coffin in front of him was easily pushed, and the rotten coffin lids crumbled into pieces with almost no effort.

As Liu Xiao climbed out of the coffin, he cautiously looked into the distance, ready to jump back into the coffin at any moment, but he was immediately greeted by a sight he would never forget.

As the sun slowly sets and the moon gradually rises, the sky leaves a gradually changing trail as the sun and moon intersect, and the clouds are shaped into mountain peaks.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, the boundless grassland in front of me was dyed yellow, and tall giraffes walked slowly in the sunset, elegantly eating the leaves of the roadside trees.

After quietly appreciating the scenery for a while, Principal Liu felt an unprecedented sense of peace.

Five minutes later, he reluctantly shifted his gaze from the setting sun and began to observe the scenery around him.

As he had expected, he did indeed climb out of the coffin.

The coffin was located in a square temple with no walls, only four pillars standing at the four corners, and the roof above the pillars had long since disappeared.

The pillars appear to be made of stone, and next to them, people have drawn pictures with simple, line-like lines.

Squatting down, Liu Xiao discovered that although the painting was simple, it still clearly conveyed its meaning.

"Balls, monsters, capture, then battle? Is this a tutorial?"

Returning to the coffin where he had just been lying, Liu found a small handbag inside, which fit perfectly on his waist.

The handbag must have used storage magic; it doesn't look big on the outside, but the space inside is surprisingly spacious.

As he reached into his satchel, he saw a panel appear before his eyes, showing that his satchel contained three items: Demon-Slaying Balls.

"The ball in the painting must be the Demon-Subduing Ball, right? Can I subdue demons by throwing the Demon-Subduing Ball?"

"Yes, that's what it means!"

The sudden sound startled Principal Liu.

Turning around, he saw a girl, no bigger than the palm of his hand, standing where he had just been standing, looking at him with great interest.

The other person was a very small girl, dressed in a snow-white long gown without a single other color on her body.

After staring at Liu Xiao for a long time, she suddenly said, "Are you a cultivator who has been sleeping all this time? Interesting. It's rare to see cultivators in this era. I thought you had become extinct."

"Extinct? Then who are you?"

"The mythical beast, Bai Ze."

"It's that all-knowing Bai Ze!"

"You actually recognize me? That's impressive. But I'm not omniscient; I just happen to know a little more than other strange beasts. For example, I only know that you are extinct, but I don't know how you became extinct."

With a light leap, Bai Ze landed on Liu Xiao's shoulder and said with a smile, "Although you guessed my identity, there's no reward. But I'm still quite interested in you, so let me teach you some ways to survive in this world. First, do you see that rat in the distance?"

Looking closely, Principal Liu nodded and said, "You mean that rat with purple wings?"

"That's an ostrich. Wherever it appears, there's good food. Let's beat it up, steal its food, and stuff it into the Demon-Subduing Orb. From then on, it'll be our slave!"

Looking at Bai Ze's enthusiastic expression, Principal Liu realized that this guy's moral standards were really low.
