Chapter 20 The Villainous Female Supporting Character in Immortal Cultivation (2)
This mission was different from the previous "campus crush" mission; Xiao Ba was deployed much earlier. How early? Well, Xia Mingwei was still just a child, the story hadn't even begun. She looked at her chubby little hands, pinched the three layers of fat on her belly, and sighed. In her mind, she communicated with Xiao Ba: "Revenge can wait! That has to wait until I'm older, right?"
Looking at Xia Mingwei's round face, Xiao Ba felt it was quite dramatic and couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Host, you're right! Let's grow up first!"
Hearing Xiao Ba's uncontrollable laughter, Xia Mingwei rolled her eyes at it and said irritably, "If you laugh again, I won't give you any energy for this mission!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Ba immediately suppressed its smile, but the smile on its lips was impossible to hide! Seeing this, Xia Mingwei let it be.
Days passed by like this, and enjoying her parents' doting love, she began to find that these days were not so hard to endure!
That day, from the morning onwards, Xia Mingwei's heart was pounding, as if something bad was about to happen.
Master Nanhua held Xia Mingwei in his arms, teasing her from time to time: "Weiwei, today your father will take you to experience the wonders of the human world! Aren't you happy!"
Xia Mingwei pursed her lips, thinking to herself, "As expected, my ominous premonition was right. It was from this day that the gears of the original owner's fate began to turn!"
Xia Mingwei wanted to refuse, but when the words reached her lips, she found herself unable to say anything.
A strange feeling washed over her, and she communicated with Xiao Ba in her mind: "Xiao Ba, what's going on? Why do I feel like my movements are being sealed off? It's like some force is stopping me, preventing me from saying these words!"
Xiao Ba scanned the program and analyzed the current situation. After a while, Xiao Ba replied, "Host, the monitoring shows that the power of the Heavenly Dao in this world is stronger than in the previous world, so this turning point concerning the protagonist's fate cannot be changed! If necessary, the Heavenly Dao will use some means!"
Hearing this, Xia Mingwei sighed inwardly, "It seems the idea of nipping this jerk in the bud is not going to work!"
Meanwhile, seeing that Xia Mingwei did not object, Master Nanhua carried her to a small town on the street.
The moment Nan Hua Zhenren carried Xia Mingwei to the town, Xia Mingwei discovered that her hands and feet had returned to normal and she could move them again.
The moment her feet touched the ground, she grabbed Nan Hua Zhenren and ran in the opposite direction, muttering to herself as she ran, "Hey, you old bastard of Heaven, I don't believe it! I'm not going to adopt this ingrate, what can you do about it?"
Before she could finish muttering to herself, she realized that the scenery around her kept changing, but she always ended up back where she started. However, no one else noticed anything amiss except for her.
Xia Mingwei finally ran out of energy and collapsed on the ground, her panting appearance arousing the curiosity of Master Nanhua.
"Weiwei, what's wrong with you today?" He asked with concern, his expression sincere and earnest.
Xia Mingwei wanted to say something to him, but realized it would be useless. She could only wave her hand and say, "Father, it's nothing. I was just suddenly attracted by the vendor's goods and wanted to take a look."
Upon hearing this, Master Nanhua burst into hearty laughter. "Weiwei likes these little trinkets? That's easy! I'll buy them all, and you can enjoy them at your leisure when you get home!"
Seeing that he was really about to take out the money, Xia Mingwei immediately stopped him: "Father, I was just joking, and now I don't like it anymore!"
Master Nanhua patted Xia Mingwei's head. "If Weiwei is worried about money, there's no need to! I can easily support ten of you! Buy these things, and if you don't like them, you can give them away!"
The conversation ended in Xia Mingwei's defeat, as Master Nanhua still bought all the items. Seeing that he was a big customer, the vendor showered him with auspicious words. Master Nanhua was overjoyed and gave him a generous reward.
This whole affair made Xia Mingwei realize how much Nan Hua Zhenren loved the original owner of this body. No wonder the original owner was willing to sacrifice her own soul to protect her family and take revenge on that ungrateful wretch.
Xia Mingwei and Master Nanhua did not have to wait long before Mo Yuan appeared.
At this moment, Mo Yuan was dressed in tattered clothes, his body covered in patches. His thin limbs looked as if they might collapse at any moment, only his eyes remained clear. He held a broken bowl in his left hand and was begging from the crowd, but the hurried passersby showed no intention of giving him a few copper coins.
Xia Mingwei looked at everything before her, her heart unmoved. Just as she was wondering how the Heavenly Dao was going to continue this grand drama, she was suddenly pulled away by an unknown force.
The incident happened so suddenly that Xia Mingwei had no time to prepare. Nan Hua Zhenren was also startled by the unexpected situation. Before he could react, he saw Xia Mingwei leaning forward and about to fall.
The ground here was full of potholes; if you fell directly down, you'd definitely get a scrape. Just then, a pair of withered hands caught Xia Mingwei.
Xia Mingwei looked at the hands without raising her head, and by seeing who the owner of these hands was, she knew what the Heavenly Dao Elder was planning.
She rolled her eyes inwardly. "What era are we living in? Still using the hero-saves-the-damsel-in-distress trope? How outdated!"
Seeing that Mo Yuan had helped Xia Mingwei up, Master Nanhua slowly breathed a sigh of relief, his heart finally at ease. Regaining his composure, Master Nanhua then looked at the male lead, completely disregarding his status as a beggar, and bowed to him, saying, "Thank you for your help just now, which saved my daughter from disaster!"
Mo Yuan looked at the elegantly dressed father and daughter, and his mouth moved slightly, "It's nothing! It's not a big deal!"
Seeing that he did not express gratitude, Master Nanhua felt even more favorably toward him.
"Young warrior, is there any difficulty you face? If I can do it, I will certainly help you!" Master Nanhua said kindly to Mo Yuan from the side.
Upon hearing this, Mo Yuan remained silent for a moment before speaking, "If it's alright, could you take me in?"
Master Nan Hua was also surprised that a beggar would make such a request. But he had already made a boast and couldn't go back on his word.
Master Nan Hua hesitated for a few minutes before speaking, "If you want me to take you in, you should at least know your name!"
"My name is Mo Yuan," he slowly uttered.
