Chapter 48 Let's not go for revenge, okay?
There was nothing more Cheng Xiao needed to do.
After receiving the order, Long Yingxue began to ruthlessly kill the entire Cheng family without any mercy.
The scene inside the Cheng family home was extremely strange.
A white-haired girl, around ten years old, chased and killed a group of people, giving them no chance to escape.
Soon after, bloodshed ensued throughout the family.
Today is the most important hunting festival on the Cangling Continent. Even those who have settled down and left home have returned today, making it convenient for Long Yingxue to eliminate any potential threats.
Dragons are inherently bloodthirsty, and these were all people who had hurt Cheng Xiao in the past, so she felt no guilt whatsoever.
While Long Yingxue was busy killing people, Cheng Xiao found a chair in the outer hall of the Cheng family and sat down.
This used to be where the Cheng family received guests, but there will be no more guests here in the future.
Hakimi's voice continued to echo in his mind: "100! You've reached 100 so quickly this time."
He may have forgotten that he had previously been criticizing Cheng Xiao for abusing the female lead.
According to Cheng Xiao, it doesn't matter what he did or whether his favorability rating increased.
Although Long Yingxue's favorability rating has reached 100, this instance is still not over.
Hakimi, worried that Cheng Xiao might forget the mission, reminded him, "Now that our favorability is maxed out, can we go straight to the Dragon Palace? Once we help the Little Dragon Girl ascend the throne, our mission will be over."
An ordinary host would definitely not do this.
There are many powerful dragons in the Dragon Palace. Even though Long Yingxue's favorability rating is already maxed out, they still need to plan ahead.
According to the system's idea, the main purpose of this instance is to train the Dragon Girl.
The dragon girl is very talented. The strategist grows up alongside the dragon girl and eventually helps her ascend the throne.
But who is Cheng Xiao?
Even though the dungeon sealed his physical body, he still possessed a divine soul at the Mahayana stage, which was more than enough to deal with a few small dragons from the mortal realm.
In Hakimi's view, this chapter is over.
"No rush, we can wait a bit longer." Cheng Xiao held a negative attitude towards this matter.
"Isn't the favorability rating already 100? What else is there to wait for?" Hakimi asked, puzzled.
Cheng Xiao didn't answer, but teased, "You said you were here to teach me how to date, but you're leaving as soon as you've built up a rapport with me. Aren't you a jerk? I thought you were into pure love."
His way of speaking changed when he encountered this system that knew about his hometown.
He remembered when he first arrived, people often couldn't understand a certain word he was saying.
Hakimi sighed deeply: "The thing is, you're not cut out for dating either!"
Faced with this sarcastic remark, Cheng Xiao remained silent, simply waiting for Long Yingxue to kill the entire Cheng family.
The reason he wasn't in a hurry to push the Dragon Palace was actually quite simple.
In the previous instance, he completed the task first, and then used his last trump card to push the favorability to 100.
But this time he didn't use any of his trump cards, and his favorability rating was already maxed out.
What about above 100?
Is there a higher level of favorability?
Cheng Xiao didn't tell Hakimi any of these things.
Hakimi urged him several more times, but when Cheng Xiao ignored him, he stopped talking and hid again.
Cheng Xiao remained seated in the front hall, waiting silently.
He thought Long Yingxue would use even more brutal methods to destroy the Cheng family.
For example, she could have directly burned the Cheng family alive, but she chose the most troublesome method. Was she afraid that some of them might escape?
Long Yingxue did not keep Cheng Xiao waiting for long.
After killing hundreds of people in the entire household, she appeared lightly in the front hall to gather everyone.
He then sat down directly in the chair next to Cheng Xiao.
Because the chair was too high, as soon as she sat down, she unconsciously swung her bare feet. Her feet were small and exquisite, fair and translucent, without a single flaw, spotless, as delicate as a work of art.
She was wearing the light green dress that Cheng Xiao had bought for her; the dress was clean and tidy, without a trace of blood.
It's hard to believe that she orchestrated the massacre of her entire family all by herself.
"Alright, I've killed everyone in the Cheng family who bullied you, and I've eaten all the spirit beasts in the Spirit Beast Garden. Now, only we are left in the entire Cheng family." Long Yingxue said the most terrifying words in the gentlest tone.
"Hmm." Cheng Xiao nodded, his expression calm and unperturbed, after all, he wasn't the real "Cheng Xiao".
Moreover, having cultivated the ruthless path for so many years, even if these people in front of him were truly his enemies, he would no longer feel any turmoil in his heart.
Long Yingxue, of course, had no idea what Cheng Xiao was thinking.
She thought the child had avenged his great enemy, and felt a sense of loss, losing all her goals for a moment.
After all, these people were his enemies, but they were also his blood relatives.
A person seeking revenge, if they no longer harbor hatred, can easily lose their way.
She gently comforted him, "Don't be sad. Those beasts don't deserve to be your family. From now on, I will be your family. I will be your only family in this world."
As Long Yingxue spoke, she even scooted closer to the side.
She had already made up her mind: since Cheng Xiao was all alone in this world, she would be his only family.
"I'm fine." Cheng Xiao shook his head, after all, he really was fine. "We should continue our journey and find a way to help you retrieve the dragon tendon."
Long Yingxue's cultivation level is currently only at the mid-Nascent Soul stage.
Killing a member of the Cheng family is no problem.
However, if you want to fight your way back to the Dragon Palace, where there are countless masters, that's a bit of wishful thinking.
The two had been together for a long time. Normally, Long Yingxue would have jumped off the chair excitedly and urged Cheng Xiao to set off quickly, saying they would go anywhere.
But this time, Little Dragon Girl was unusually silent.
She kept her head down, seemingly lost in thought.
"Tell me when you're ready." He thought that Long Yingxue was afraid to return to the Dragon Palace and face those unbearable past events.
The outcome was exactly as Cheng Xiao had predicted.
Because Long Yingxue suddenly looked up and said, "I! I... let's not go back for revenge, okay?"
Her tone was a mix of nervousness, pleading, and utter bewilderment.
Cheng Xiao remembered that dragons were extremely proud creatures.
Just like how he initially used this to provoke Long Yingxue, helping her regain the courage to live.
But now she says she "won't go back for revenge"?
Having suffered such a humiliating disgrace, with even his dragon tendons being pulled out, how could he not want revenge now?
Even Cheng Xiao couldn't quite understand what had happened.
Is it really because they don't want to face those unbearable past events?
But his intuition told him that things were not that simple, and that Long Yingxue was not that kind of person.
He stood up from his chair, stood in front of Xiaolongnu, looked down at her, trying to discern something from her.
"We..." Long Yingxue hesitated for a long time before finally speaking, "Let's stay."
"Stay here, stay in Chengjia."
"From now on, it will only be us here, you and me, and no one else."
"I will always be with you."
"So let's not go back for revenge, okay?"
