Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Chapter 1170 - 621: Could Those Two Be Our Gods?

For Xu Ying, going to the underground human base is incredibly easy.

Just like now, she and Xu Xin are already strolling down the bustling city streets.

Both of them are wearing masks and sunglasses, because their images are deeply ingrained in the public mind, so if they don’t cover up, it might cause big problems.

The last time Xu Ying appeared beside the statue in the city center, it remained the headline news, and the buzz still hasn’t died down.

If the two of them appear together, it would be total chaos.

Of course, apart from the two of them, there’s also a little brown and white creature perched on Xu Xin’s shoulder.

Facing the busy streets, the little creature seems a bit timid, staying firmly on Xu Xin’s shoulder without any intention of jumping down to walk by itself.

But this is normal; Keke the little creature is indeed very shy. Ever since it was first encountered, it has been very resistant to strangers and doesn’t let anyone except Xu Xin touch it.

Even Li Wenxi took a long time to build a good relationship with it.

Now, seeing all the unfamiliar people, even though the little creature has gotten used to interacting with humans, it still remains incredibly timid.

Its little head moves about, observing everything around with a curious demeanor.

Its cute appearance attracts a lot of attention, and many people glance over at them.

Plus, their peculiar attire raises a high rate of curious looks along the way.

”Hey bro, you really shouldn’t have brought this little thing out.” Xu Ying glanced at the bundle on Xu Xin’s shoulder.

”Uh... how was I supposed to know this little creature would attract so much attention?” Xu Xin replied helplessly.

”Grunt!” Although the little creature feels uneasy being stared at by the crowd, it still looks discontentedly at Xu Ying, waving its tiny paw, ”Grunt grunt grunt!”

”Ah! So cute!”

”What kind of animal is this?”

”Is it a puppy or a little bear?”

Excited voices arose around them, some even screaming.

Keke’s adorableness utterly captivated the surrounding people.

”Just a thousand years ago, if you walked down the street with a panda, it could have almost a hundred percent attention rate, not to mention these people now, who’ve never seen a panda—an almost extinct species back then!”

Xu Ying whispered and then glared at those who kept staring at them.

Unfortunately, with her mask and sunglasses, people couldn’t see Xu Ying’s somewhat fierce expression.

However, when Xu Ying looked at them, they instinctively felt her displeasure and turned away awkwardly.

”Hehe, the manners of people here are impressive.” Xu Xin laughed.

”This is the central city of the underground human base, under the divine presence, naturally it’s high.” Xu Ying pointed at the statue of the two not far away, ”How about it, doesn’t it look magnificent up close?”

”It really is magnificent.”

”Hello there!”

Suddenly, a female voice behind them catches their attention.

They turned to see a woman in formal attire, holding a microphone, standing behind them.

Beside her, there was a guy holding a camera.

”Hello! May I interview you two?”

”You are...”

”I’m a reporter from xx News, currently conducting interviews with the public about opinions on the recent appearance of the ’divines.’ May I hear your views?”

”No way!” Xu Ying immediately refused, pulling Xu Xin quickly forward.

Keke climbed to the other shoulder of Xu Xin, curiously looking back at the man and woman.

”Hey hey, please wait a moment!”

The female reporter persistently chased after them.

The cameraman sprinted ahead, capturing a series of photos of them.

”I mean, do we need to hide now? Didn’t you say the underground world situation is mostly resolved?”

Xu Xin was forced to be dragged forward.

His sister’s strength exceeded his, making it impossible to stop.

”What a hassle! I just wanted to show you around here, but if we get caught up with them, it’ll be trouble! I’m socially anxious, I don’t want to be interviewed.”

”You’re socially anxious... If worse comes to worst, we can just teleport away.”

Xu Xin wasn’t bothered by the duo of reporters and the cameraman chasing them.

Because...

He could read their thoughts.

[These two are so strange! Wearing masks and sunglasses, and possessing an unknown cute little creature!]

[Most importantly, they’re a man and a woman!]

[Could it be? Have I really encountered the real deal?]

[Regardless of whether they are real or not, I must interview them!]

[That little creature is so cute!]

The female reporter’s thoughts were extremely excited.

The cameraman also had similar thoughts.

[Is it real? Is it really real!?]

[That woman’s voice, it sounds like the one from the divine appearance next to the statue!]

[These two people, could they be our ’divines’?]

Xu Xin, being pulled forward, couldn’t help but smile.

Looks like they’ve been recognized by those two sharp individuals behind them.

Their appearance does indeed raise suspicions.

Especially as the duo behind them are reporters specially tasked with interviewing public opinions on the ”divine appearance,” naturally with their minds full of thoughts about divines, they’ve seen countless images of Xu Ying and Li Wenxi by the statue.
