The Lovely Heiress Is Actually A God Beast

Chapter 781: Chapter 781: Must Be Ordinary

After the advertisement ended, Little Taotie and the others took care of the gray-haired fox and walked out of the house, where they saw Ji Guang standing outside, having set up a Formation to prevent the sound from escaping.

Ji Guang asked, ”Is it taken care of?”

Ling Long pointed at Wang Yilun’s Wine Gourd, ”You ask him.”

Wang Yilun belched, ”Good wine~”

Ji Guang didn’t need to inquire further; he guessed that Wang Yilun had turned the fox into alcohol.

Little Taotie pinched her nose and motioned to Ji Guang, leaning close to his ear to whisper, ”It was a fox with dog and weasel lineage, whose main attack was releasing stinky farts—no wonder the Fox Clan expelled her, too stinky.”

Ji Guang raised his eyebrows unexpectedly, looked at Wang Yilun, and gave a thumbs up, ”Strong stomach.”

Wang Yilun helplessly replied, ”It’s good wine, really not smelly anymore.”

The Hexagram’s light enveloped the eight people, and Ling Long sighed, ”The mission target is dead, and we don’t have much time left, thirty minutes until we’re automatically sent back.”

Little Taotie hurriedly said, ”I want to go see them!”

She had developed a friendship with the six Small Gold Ingots over catching cicadas and was reluctant to leave in a rush.

Ling Long consoled, ”There’s still thirty minutes, go meet them and say goodbye.”

Wang Yilun, burping, said, ”After all, this meeting is a farewell forever.”

Ling Long glared at him but couldn’t refute anything; indeed, once they left this point in time, they would never return after going back.

Wang Yilun belched again, tipsily, ”After all, these six were historically supposed to be dead. By saving them, who knows what they’ll stir up in history once we return.”

Ling Long frowned, torn, ”If they cause a stir, wouldn’t we have changed history? Is there a punishment for that?”

Ji Guang shook his head, ”No, if they manage to survive, they won’t significantly alter history; if they were to significantly alter history, they wouldn’t survive.”

The implication was that if they were going to change history, even if they didn’t die today, they would eventually die on some future date for some reason, dying young.

Ling Long sighed, ”I hope they all lead unremarkable lives, or else they’re still doomed to die young.”

Little Taotie stamped her little foot and ran as quickly as she could.

Ling Long watched as her small figure rapidly became more distant at an exaggerated speed, almost disappearing from sight, and Ling Long quickly chased after her.

The next moment, the eight appeared in a remote small town.

This was a border town where mostly wives and children, who had followed their family men from various places, lived, including Village Girl Yang and six children who had just settled in.

The six Small Gold Ingots, new to the town and not yet mingled with other children, played together when suddenly they saw a familiar small figure running towards them, and the six children happily rushed over in surprise.

Little Taotie had prepared parting gifts—sugar-coated haws and six small gold ingots.

Little Taotie told them she was going to a faraway place, another country, and might never see them again in this lifetime.

The youngest girl, only three years old, hugged Little Taotie, ”Big sister, don’t go~”

Little Taotie patted her gently, advising softly as if coaxing, ”You all must grow up well, remember, the heavens envy the talented; try not to outshine or be too aggressive.”

Little Bean blinked in confusion, ”What does ’the heavens envy the talented’ mean?”

Little Taotie explained quietly, ”If you’re too outstanding, the heavens will become jealous and might strike you with lightning; it’s roughly that idea, so it’s best to be ordinary, not too smart, not too impressive...”

At the time, the six Small Gold Ingots hardly grasped what she meant, but as various events unfolded, they had no choice but to believe the elder sister’s advice.
