There's Something Wrong With This Account

Chapter 159: 159.【People, you have to be a bit harsh on yourself】

Translator: 549690339

Lu Xun rode a paper crane and flew toward the Lead Peak, knowing he needed to register before leaving the mountain.

Upon arriving at Lead Peak, Lu Xun and Lin Chan signed their names in the register. Then, Mao Nanbei jumped up, hopped onto the table, picked up a brush, and signed her own name.

The little loli was short. Without jumping, she would have struggled to sign.

“Fourth senior sister, why do you need to register?” Lu Xun came up with a sudden, ominous feeling.

Mao Nanbei tilted her little head, her cat ears falling slightly backward, and thought, “Because the super, super, super awesome treasure I mentioned is me!”

“Little junior brother, by coming down the mountain with you, I can protect you!” Mao Nanbei struck her chest, which was as flat as a tile with only two small circles, and then raised her two little hands, shaking the Golden Bell in her hands.

Am I, Mao Nanbei, not the ultimate little treasure?

I’m the best treasure in-yeah!

I have already prepared myself, you know~

Lu Xun:

He reached out and plucked Mao Nanbei from the table, saying, “Fourth senior sister, let’s go back to the mountain. I’m heading down to gain some experience. How can I be protected by you every day?”

Given Mao Nanbei’s knack for causing trouble, Lu Xun wasn’t eager to take her along.

If he was, he worried that the three Godspeed Talismans wouldn’t be enough to escape with!

Forget meeting trouble on the road, this little ore loli, Mao Nanbei, was likely to be the biggest trouble!

In the mountain, there was still his second senior sister to keep her in check. After leaving the mountain, he was genuinely scared that she might wreak havoc everywhere!

“That’s not a problem!” Mao Nanbei, who was being held in the air by Lu Xun, said confidently, “Once we leave the mountain, I’ll just stay by your side and watch your training. I won’t take any action.”

Lu Xun felt like responding: “Then aren’t you even more useless? Are you coming down the mountain to be a mascot?”

Looking at Mao Nanbei, he asked, “Does the Master know about this?”

“He does. I told him a few days ago!” Mao Nanbei didn’t hesitate and answered immediately.

“Really?” Lu Xun expressed his disbelief.

Among all the disciples on the back mountain, she was the only one bold enough to lie about the Master. Heck she didn’t fear him one bit, but his second senior sister, now that was a different story.

“Seriously! If you don’t believe it, let’s go back and ask him!” Mao Nanbei seemed quite sure of herself.

“Alright, since it’s no trouble, we can go back and ask,” Lu Xun said as he grabbed her with both hands and moved toward the paper crane.

The moment they got on the paper crane, Mao Nanbei promptly severed the connection between Lu Xun and the paper crane, then tapped into the crane’s control and sped toward the mountain.

Damn it, this little loli was indeed lying!

…

…

As time passed, they had flown quite a distance from Demon Sect.

Lu Xun and Mao Nanbei sat on the paper crane, coming to an agreement.

“Fourth senior sister, coming down the mountain together is fine, but you have to listen to me,” Lu Xun said seriously to Mao Nanbei.

He had a plan for his descent, and who knew whether this little loli would mess it up?

“But I’m the senior sister!” Mao Nanbei felt that her seniority was undermined.

“Boiled Beef,” Lu Xun suddenly mentioned.

“Kung Pao Chicken,” he continued.

“Pepper Chicken.”

“Braised Duck.”

“Red-cooked Fish.”

“…”

Dish after dish was recited from Lu Xun’s mouth. He had no intention of reasoning with Mao Nanbei, opting to threaten her with delicious food.

“Junior brother! Slurp! I’m your senior sister! Slurp!”

Lu Xun stopped reciting dishes, instead mentioning the small sweets he usually made.

This was a naked threat!

Yet, within the threat was an irresistible allure!

Afterward, only “slurping” sounds were heard on the paper crane.

Tough-as-nails Mao Nanbei promptly surrendered to Lu Xun.

After all, the biggest reason why she was coming down the mountain with Lu Xun, apart from her playful nature, was that she could no longer do without this chef named Lu.

“From now on, you are my summoning beast,” Lu Xun thought to himself, somewhat contentedly.

The control of the paper crane once again fell into Lu Xun’s hands, and he adjusted their course, flying toward their next destination.

“Little junior brother, where are we going now?” Mao Nanbei asked.

“Three Thousand Mountains,” Lu Xun responded.

“Why are we going to the Three Thousand Mountains?” Mao Nanbei asked, confused.

“To take care of some business,” replied Lu Xun.

It’s not like I could tell her that I’m actually going on a quest, right?

“Little Chan is so much better. She listens obediently, understands what’s going on, and doesn’t chatter needlessly like a little loli,” he thought to himself.

Lin Chan would obediently follow Lu Xun, without caring where they were going, as long as she was with him.

Lu Xun planned to complete the hidden task initiated by the Emperor Guild before anyone else and obtain that mysterious key!

The Three Thousand Mountains were located a considerable distance from Demon Sect. However, like the Boundless Mountain, its location was also to the north, so it wasn’t too much of a detour.

According to the task requirements, he needed to kill the man who had slain the young Sect Leader of the Tianque Gate. Then, with the man’s head, he could claim the reward at the Tianque Gate.

Even though the task required him to kill someone, Lu Xun didn’t feel burdened.

It wasn’t that he didn’t value human life; rather, the man was not a good person to begin with. In contrast, the young Sect Leader of Tianque Gate was a passionate and upright warrior who sacrificed his life to maintain peace in the Three Thousand Mountains.

The Three Thousand Mountains housed many Sects. The many factions in the Three Thousand Mountains Alliance were united. When the Tianque Gate’s young Sect Leader was killed, it was a direct insult to the Three Thousand Mountains.

Therefore, the Three Thousand Mountains Alliance jointly issued a wanted order.

Unfortunately, while the killer was initially found and struck by the Sect Leader of the Tianque Gate, his whereabouts were lost soon after.

He had literally disappeared off the face of the earth!

But Lu Xun knew where the man was hiding.

He was still lingering near the Three Thousand Mountains, where he had constructed a base.

He never left the area, likely due to specific circumstances.

The hidden task contained another hidden task. This was a standard practice, but when the players had just started playing “Heavenly Dust” in his previous life, they were not as cunning as they would become later on, so the hidden task within the task was never discovered.

The reason why this murderer evaded capture was explained earlier. He was ruthless enough to amputate his own arm, thus removing the unique mark placed by the Sect Leader of Tianque Gate.

Of course, that wasn’t enough.

Under the carpet search by the Three Thousand Mountains Alliance, a one-armed man would be too conspicuous.

Yet, this man really resorted to ruthless means. He initiated a drastic measure that instantly threw off his pursuers, and since then, no one suspected him again.

He had an amazing secret technique that could provide him a brand new identity, as long as he was ruthless enough to use it on himself.

[He] used the secret technique and changed [himself] into [her].
