Chapter 37

When Gu Bai returned to the starry sky, he felt a little weak.

He guessed that it might be because of his attachment to the man in his heart that caused him to be addicted to the world and violated the rules mentioned by the mysterious master. He was about to face the punishment of death.

"How do you feel?"

Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded in his ear. He looked up and saw a shadow floating in the air, wearing armor and a helmet. It was the mysterious master.

Gu Bai was shocked and immediately cupped his hands, "Thank you for saving me, master."

In the world, he clearly felt that his soul was about to dissipate, but he was still alive and returned to the starry sky. It was obvious that the mysterious master had saved him.

"Do you remember what I told you before?" The mysterious man did not accept his thanks and his voice was as cold as ice.

"…" Gu Bai did not speak, his body was a little stiff.

"If you are addicted to the world, you will be turned into ashes!"

The mysterious man stared at him with his cold eyes and said slowly, his tone was still filled with endless majesty.

"For those mission worlds, you are an outsider. You are not limited by the world's reincarnation. Once you are unable to return to the starry sky, the world cannot accept you. The result is that your existence will be erased …"

"I …" Gu Bai's face was a little pale. He already felt that his soul was very weak at this moment.

The mysterious man looked at his state and paused for a moment. He waved his hand and sent a black light into Gu Bai's body. After his soul solidified, he said in a deep voice.

"You did a good job this time. There should be a reward, but you committed such a big taboo, so your merits offset your demerits. Remember, if you are addicted to the world again, I will not save you …"

"Thank you, master. This subordinate understands."

Gu Bai nodded hoarsely.

In the previous missions, he could not understand why the original owners were willing to exchange their souls. He could not understand the feelings of the men and women in the missions.

But this time, when he saw Ji Changyin die, he could not control his emotions and wanted to follow him. Without a doubt, he was not looking forward to the lonely company of that man, but love. He fell in love with the man he had met three times …

But this love seemed to be too difficult for them. The man would lose his memory every time he reincarnated and his appearance would change. There were so many worlds and so many worlds. The chances of them meeting was too slim.

However, even though the chances were slim, there was still a chance.

Thinking of this, Gu Bai's eyes became clear. He took a deep breath and spoke respectfully to the figure in front of him.

"Master, I'm ready. I want to start the next mission immediately."

As long as he was in the mission world, he would have a chance to see that man again.

In response to his request, the mysterious man stared at him deeply before nodding.

"Alright, I hope this isn't the last time I see you …"

"This subordinate understands. Thank you for your concern, Master."

Gu Bai raised his head and said resolutely. He would never lose himself in the world again. As long as he continued to complete missions in different worlds, he would have a chance to see that person again. If he died, they would never have another chance.

The mysterious man didn't say anything. He waved his hand and sent him into the mission.

After he left, the mysterious man opened his hand and a ball of black light flew out from his palm and turned into a human figure. If Gu Bai was still here, he would definitely recognize that the human figure was Ji Changyin!

"I'm done. You should come back now …"

The mysterious man stared at Ji Changyin and said calmly.

"Can't you be nicer to him?

Why are you so serious … "

Ji Changyin looked at the place where Gu Bai disappeared and smiled gently. Then, his face immediately turned cold and vicious as he looked at the mysterious man unhappily.

"Hmph, you still have the face to lecture me!" The mysterious man snorted coldly. He seemed to be very unhappy.

"You guys actually have feelings for someone else in the world. Even if it's just a clone, if he knows in the future, he will definitely be angry with me!"

Hearing the mysterious man mention 'him', Ji Changyin's expression changed slightly. His eyes instantly focused. His hands hanging by his sides clenched into fists. He was somewhat vicious and worried.

"How is he?"

"He's still the same …" The mysterious man closed his eyes. His cold eyes revealed a terrifying chill.

"But I will never give up!

So don't cause trouble for me. Help me recover as soon as possible … "

"Don't worry. How would those people think that you would dare to take such a risk to hide your clone in the Three Thousand Worlds to absorb energy for cultivation?

It won't be long before we recover. When that time comes, I will definitely make those people die a horrible death! "

Ji Changyin nodded coldly. Then, he said solemnly, "But there's something I want to tell you …"

"What is it?"

"It's Gu Bai … We are all your clones. Everything comes from you, including our feelings and thoughts. I definitely don't have feelings for him just for myself. It's very likely that I was influenced by you …"

Before Ji Changyin could finish, the mysterious man coldly interrupted him. "Impossible!

I definitely won't be moved by anyone other than him! "

"But you didn't kill him just now. That means you're soft-hearted … Moreover, you don't dare to face him with your true body because you're afraid he'll find out …"

"But even if you don't face him with your true body and erase his perception of us so that he won't be able to find us in the next world, he has absorbed our origin energy. Sooner or later, he'll find out … Moreover, because of you, we instinctively take the initiative to get close to him when the characters in the world are asleep."

Ji Changyin muttered.

"You're right. It's impossible for us to have feelings for anyone other than him. But now, Gu Bai is an exception. This isn't normal …"

"You mean …" The mysterious man's tone became serious.

"This time, I felt his aura on Gu Bai …"

"What did you say?

He, he's serious, but back then … "The mysterious man's body suddenly trembled. His aura fluctuated violently.

"There's always an exception …"

"I understand. Come back first."

The mysterious man took a deep breath and suppressed the strong fluctuations in his heart. He nodded and waved at Ji Changyin. Ji Changyin's body turned into a black light and returned to his original body.

After feeling the strength in his body increase a little, he raised his hand and looked at the exquisite jade doll in his hand. His cold eyes revealed a lingering tenderness …

When Gu Bai woke up again, his surroundings were overflowing with silence. When he opened his eyes, he found himself in a modern room.

He was lying on a big soft bed. Above him was a snow-white ceiling and a gorgeous crystal chandelier. Opposite him were beige curtains. The sun was shining brightly outside the room. It looked very hot, but the room was air-conditioned, so it was very cool.

It seemed that his mission world this time was a modern one. Looking at the decoration and size of the room, the original owner's family condition should be good.

Gu Bai had been used to hugging a golden thigh several times. He was very satisfied with the environment he woke up in. He picked up the glass of water on the bedside table and took a sip. Then, he lay down again and closed his eyes to receive the storyline …

His body was 19 years old this year. His name was Tang Zihao.

His father, Tang Dahai, was just a very ordinary small contractor in his early years. With his own ability and the support of the national policy, he quickly went from a small contractor to a real estate company and became a famous nouveau riche in Nan City.

However, Tang Zihao was not the child of Tang Dahai's first wife. He was the illegitimate son of his mistress.

Tang Zihao's mother, Zhang Li, was born in an ordinary family. Her parents were small company employees. She was a very beautiful woman since she was a child. After graduating from university, she worked in Tang Dahai's Soaring Real Estate Company.

Like most gold diggers, the young and beautiful Zhang Li longed for the rich life of the upper class. Soon, she hooked up with Tang Dahai, the nouveau riche.

Tang Dahai's first wife, Zhou Sufen, was just an uncultured and unassertive rural woman. It was not until Zhang Li walked in with her belly that she found out that her husband was secretly outside.

However, Zhou Sufen was really a brainless and assertive woman. Although she was sad, Zhang Li was pregnant with Tang Dahai's son and was about to give birth. After being coaxed by Tang Dahai, although she was unwilling, she tacitly agreed that Zhang Li would bring her son to live in the Tang family.

Fortunately, Tang Dahai still had some conscience and did not abandon Zhou Sufen. Zhang Li also did not have the heart to fight.

Although she was a gold digger, she was very tactful. She just wanted to live a carefree life of a rich wife.

After bringing Tang Zihao into the Tang family, Zhang Li became Tang Dahai's concubine. She obediently called Zhou Sufen sister, allowing Tang Dahai to enjoy the happiness of having two wives.

As for Tang Zihao, this illegitimate son, Tang Dahai had always doted on him since he was young. He was not very cultured and relied on opportunities to get rich. Therefore, Tang Zihao's personality was very arrogant and willful.

Tang Zihao was currently studying at the famous Tsing University in Nan City. Actually, with Tang Zihao's grades, he would not be able to enter Tsing University. However, Tang Zihao insisted on studying at Nan City's Tsing University, so Tang Dahai used money to get him in.

As for why Tang Zihao was so determined to study at Tsing University, it was of course because of his brother, Tang Linyi. Tang Zihao liked his brother, not as a friend, but as a lover!

However, Tang Linyi did not like Tang Zihao. He was a normal straight man. Not to mention liking men, with his relationship with Tang Zihao, how could he like the son of a mistress who destroyed his happy family?

Tang Linyi did not like Tang Zihao, but Tang Zihao liked him as if he was possessed. However, Tang Zihao himself knew that this kind of liking was not normal, so he never said it out loud.

However, this did not stop Tang Zihao from looking at Tang Linyi to relieve his lovesickness. Therefore, as soon as the college entrance examination ended, Tang Zihao pestered Tang Dahai to study at Tsing University so that he could see Tang Linyi.

Tang Zihao knew that his crush on Tang Linyi would not bear fruit, but this did not stop him from continuing to have a crush on Tang Linyi.

Tang Linyi's grades were very good, but he had a hobby that was not proper in the eyes of parents. He liked to play games.

Therefore, in order to get rid of his unrequited love, Tang Zihao also followed Tang Linyi into a Xianxia game called "Cultivation Records" after knowing that Tang Linyi liked to play games.

When he registered, Tang Zihao specially chose a female character, naively hoping to have an online relationship with the person he liked in the illusory online world.
