Chapter 18: Lin Chen's Guess — Has Yu Xiaogang Become a Eunuch?
Seeing Xiao Wu's blatant show-off, many members of the chat group instantly couldn't hold it in anymore.
[I Have No Mother: Xiao Wu, don't get smug. There's no Soul Master under the sky that Spirit Hall can't find.]
[I Have No Mother: Pope of Spirit Hall, hurry up and use your Pope's authority to investigate which academy Xiao Wu is in.]
[I Have No Mother: Spirit Hall's influence spreads across the entire continent. As long as you want to check, you can find Xiao Wu's academy within a day or two.]
[I Am a Little Princess: That's right, Bibi Dong. You don't really want to keep watching Xiao Wu take all the hidden rewards, do you? Hurry up and investigate!]
[A Cat Longing for Freedom: Hurry up and investigate!]
[I Have No Mother: Hurry up and investigate!]
[A Little Fox: Hurry up and investigate!]
[Yan Will Come Back: Hurry up and investigate!]
[Cold and Detached Melon-Eating Girl: Hurry up and investigate!]
[My Surname is Not Yu: Hurry up and investigate!]
Seeing the chat group flood with messages, Xiao Wu—who was in Nuoding City—panicked instantly.
She hadn't expected Spirit Hall to be so powerful, capable of finding someone so easily.
If that were the case, wouldn't her location be exposed?
"No, no! Little Bunny still wants to eat carrots. That stupid woman Bibi Dong—please don't check my location!"
Xiao Wu clasped her hands together and prayed to the heavens, hoping the gods would grant her more chances to farm hidden rewards from the diary copies.
[Pope of Spirit Hall: Hmph. You tell me to investigate, and I should just do it? This Pope refuses. I'll make you watch helplessly as Xiao Wu continues to obtain rewards.]
[Pope of Spirit Hall: Don't you mock me every day for being so 'capable'? Why don't you go find the diary owner Lin Chen yourselves instead of asking me to investigate? You really think too highly of yourselves.]
[Pope of Spirit Hall: Even if I did find out, I still wouldn't tell you.]
Spirit City — Bibi Dong's Bedroom.
At this moment, Bibi Dong was wearing a pink silk nightgown, lying on a soft, luxurious bed. Beneath the thin fabric, her alluring figure could be faintly seen.
Looking at the group members who still wanted her to investigate Lin Chen's location, Bibi Dong sneered in disdain.
She thought to herself—You really are dreaming.
Had they already forgotten how they mocked her in the chat group just a few days ago?
That said, Lin Chen's and Xiao Wu's locations… she could secretly investigate them herself.
After all, she was also extremely interested in those hidden rewards. The previous reward, "Clarity of Mind," had already spared her a great deal of unnecessary trouble.
[Carrot Lover: Bibi Dong, well said! This time, I support you.]
[A Little Fox: Xiao Wu, don't get too happy just yet. Don't think that just because Her Holiness doesn't investigate your location, we won't have any other way.]
[I Am a Little Princess: Exactly, exactly. Xiao Wu, I advise you to think carefully about your actions.]
[I Am a Little Princess: Once we find your location, we'll snatch all your Super Carrots away. Serves you right for showing off in the group all the time.]
[Carrot Lover: You're not allowed to steal my Super Carrots!]
[Yan Will Come Back: Hehe, Xiao Wu, not only are we going to steal them, but we're also going to beat you into a pig's head. You've been way too arrogant these past few days.]
[Carrot Lover: Hmph! I still have a Spatial Jade Slip. Worst case, I'll just run away. You won't be able to snatch my Super Carrots anyway.]
Nuoding City.
Just after Lin Chen finished cultivating the Nine Yang Divine Art and went for a walk around Nuoding Academy to relax—
He suddenly noticed something.
Not far ahead, Tang San was supporting Yu Xiaogang as they slowly walked forward.
Upon closer observation, Lin Chen discovered that with every step Yu Xiaogang took, his face twitched slightly, as though he were enduring immense pain.
Looking further down, Lin Chen saw that Yu Xiaogang was limping awkwardly, walking in a way that looked suspiciously like he was… pulling something sensitive.
'Don't tell me Yu Xiaogang got bitten there by a Datura Snake?'
'If that's the case, wouldn't Yu Xiaogang have become a eunuch?'
Lin Chen silently speculated. He felt that this guess had an eighty to ninety percent chance of being correct.
And if that were truly the case…
Wouldn't that be way too satisfying?
Thinking of this, Lin Chen immediately summoned his diary. With a single thought, lines of text began appearing on its pages.
[Today I had nothing to do and was wandering around the academy when I discovered something interesting.]
As Lin Chen's diary began updating, the girls immediately stopped arguing and turned their attention to their own diary copies.
"Today's diary is daily life again?"
Seeing the first line, they all thought Lin Chen was just padding things out once more.
But in the very next moment, Lin Chen dropped an earth-shattering bombshell.
[I actually saw Yu Xiaogang limping along, being supported by Tang San. Judging by the pain on his face—]
[I'm guessing there's an eighty to ninety percent chance Yu Xiaogang has become a eunuch. If that's really the case, then congratulations are truly in order.]
[A scumbag like Yu Xiaogang should have become a eunuch long ago. He toyed with Liu Erlong's and Bibi Dong's feelings when he was young—now this is karmic retribution.]
[Seriously, with how useless Yu Xiaogang is, how did he even dare to take Tang San to hunt a soul ring? If Tang San didn't have Tang Sect's hidden weapons and Tang Hao protecting him in secret, Yu Xiaogang would've gotten Tang San killed.]
[In the original story, Yu Xiaogang led Tang San into a fight with a four-hundred-plus-year-old Datura Snake. After just a few exchanges, Yu Xiaogang was knocked unconscious. If Tang San hadn't relied on his previous-life methods, he would've died in the snake's jaws long ago.]
[But judging from the current situation, Yu Xiaogang doesn't seem to have merely passed out—he looks like he might've lost his root as well. Xiaogang, Xiaogang, why were you so overconfident? You just had to show off, and now you're becoming a eunuch.]
[I just hope that when I run into Yu Xiaogang in the future, he doesn't point at me with an orchid finger—otherwise I really won't be able to stop myself from laughing.]
At this moment, Lin Chen was writing enthusiastically, completely unaware of the storm his words were unleashing within the chat group.
[I Am a Little Princess: I'm dying laughing. Yu Xiaogang really lives up to being useless—at Rank 29 Soul Grandmaster realm, who couldn't even beat a four-hundred-year Datura Snake. And judging by the situation now, he might actually become a eunuch.]
[A Cat Longing for Freedom: Exactly. I've wanted to turn him into a eunuch for ages. Now I didn't even have to lift a finger—this scumbag did it to himself. So satisfying.]
[My Surname is Not Yu: Yu Xiaogang, Yu Xiaogang—consider this your punishment for playing with my feelings. You should've ended up like this long ago. Looks like the heavens still have eyes—evil truly meets its retribution.]
[Pope of Spirit Hall: Impossible. That's impossible. Lin Chen only said there's an eighty to ninety percent chance—this is just his own speculation. Xiaogang wouldn't become a eunuch.]
[I Have No Mother: Even at a time like this, you're still clinging to fantasies? Bibi Dong, all you know how to do is deceive yourself. You're truly pitifully foolish.]
[I Have No Mother: Xiao Wu, isn't Tang San your little brother/licking dog? Go investigate and see whether Yu Xiaogang really became a eunuch. That'll help our foolish Pope finally face reality.]
[Carrot Lover: Roger that!]
