Chapter 538: Fake Xiaozhi

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In Ninghe City, Lin Yan floated up along the river, but he didn’t enter the city. Instead, he followed the river out of the city and found an empty spot to move Xiaozhi and the altars up again.

Xiaozhi fell into a coma again. Her eyeballs seemed to be moving slowly left and right, falling into a dream.

Lin Yan looked at Xiaozhi steadily, but his palms were slightly sweaty as he waited quietly.

After an unknown period of time, Lin Yan’s entire body suddenly trembled, and his face turned slightly pale.

A familiar huge spirituality descended here again!

Zhao Pan was here again!

Lin Yan did not turn around to look at Zhao Pan. Instead, he stared intently at Xiaozhi, his face ashen.

As soon as Xiaozhi woke up, he actually felt that something was wrong.

There seemed to be a slight difference in Xiaozhi’s expression and tone. She was not as intimate and close to him as before.

However, he subconsciously ignored these subtle abnormalities and thought that Xiaozhi’s size had grown, and her mind had also changed.

But just now, after Xiaozhi woke up for the second time, her personality seemed to have changed drastically. It was as if another person’s soul had entered Xiaozhi’s body and replaced her.

“Gulan City, Ninghe City…”

Both times, Xiaozhi had asked him carefully about the name of the city and repeated it twice.

And both times, after Xiaozhi fell asleep, Zhao Pan came.

Under the Black Tortoise Divine Armor, logically speaking, it was impossible for Xiaozhi’s body to emit spiritual energy. Even Cheng Yu’er and Zhao Pan’s spiritual energy could not penetrate the Black Tortoise Divine Armor.

Hence, Xiaozhi must have used some method that he could not understand to pass the information to Zhao Pan.

Or perhaps, was this ten-year-old girl in front of him really Xiaozhi?

Zhao Pan shuttled back and forth above Ninghe City. Just like last time, he couldn’t discover Lin Yan at all. This time, he was clearly a little anxious and wreaked havoc outside the city in anger.

After Zhao Pan left, Lin Yan stood up and brought Xiaozhi and the altars down the waterway again. They changed their route to their next destination, Hengyang City.

On the way, Xiaozhi woke up again and looked at Lin Yan in surprise. “Aren’t… aren’t we in Ninghe City?”

Lin Yan shook his head as if nothing had happened. “We’re preparing to go to Hengyang City.”

“Hengyang City, Hengyang City. Brother, why do we have to change our destination?” Xiaozhi complained slightly.

“Nothing. Xiaozhi, are you going to sleep again?”

“Huh? How, how did you know?”

“Go to sleep.”

Xiaozhi’s face was filled with uncertainty as she said softly, “Then, Big Brother, I’ll sleep then?”

“Go to sleep.”

Xiaozhi closed her eyes uneasily and soon fell asleep.

In Hengyang City, Lin Yan saw the exasperated Zhao Pan again. He couldn’t find him.

Then, there was Fenghe City, Jinshan City, Qingliang City…

Every time he went to a city, Xiaozhi would wake up. When Lin Yan told her the location, she quickly fell asleep again. Then, when he reached that city, he would see the exasperated, anxious, and gloomy Zhao Pan.

Lin Yan kept acting like he knew nothing, but no matter how slow Xiaozhi was, she still sensed something amiss.

“Xiaozhi, our next destination is Tianyang City.”

At this moment, they were standing in a wilderness. A small stream meandered past their feet.

Lin Yan looked at Xiaozhi as usual and said softly.

Xiaozhi didn’t say a word. She raised her head and looked at Lin Yan strangely.

Lin Yan didn’t say anything and looked down at Xiaozhi calmly.

The two of them looked at each other like this. The atmosphere froze and fell into silence.

In the end, Xiaozhi couldn’t take it anymore. She bit her lips and said, “You know everything?”

Lin Yan shook his head. “I’m waiting for you to tell me.”

“Tell you what?”

“Who the hell are you?”

“I, I, I am Xiaozhi.”

“No, you’re not Xiaozhi. Or should 1 say, none of you is?”

Xiaozhi’s expression changed slightly.

“You guys aren’t the same person, right?” Lin Yan sat cross-legged and stared at Xiaozhi quietly. “Those in Gulan City, Ninghe City, Hengyang City, and Jinshan City are all different.

“I can’t tell if the person in Fenghe City and Qingliang City is new or if they have appeared before.

“Therefore, there are at least four of you, but none of you are Xiaozhi!”

Lin Yan tried his best to explain in a calm tone, but Xiaozhi’s expression changed bit by bit. She was embarrassed, helpless, and exposed bit by bit.

Lin Yan finally asked the key question he really wanted to ask. “Where’s Xiaozhi? Where’s the real Xiaozhi? What… did you do to her?”

The fake Xiaozhi bit her lips. “She’s fine.”

Lin Yan was silent for a moment. At this moment, although he looked extremely calm, he was already furious in his heart.

If not for the fact that he was worried about scaring the fake Xiaozhi in front of him and he forcefully restrained his spiritual power, the entire land would probably be overturned by his spiritual power.

The fake Xiaozhi opened her mouth. “1… I’m not good at chatting. Why don’t I find someone else to talk to you?”

Lin Yan raised his eyebrows.

However, the fake Xiaozhi seemed to be avoiding him. She quickly closed her eyes and fell asleep.

A moment later, Xiaozhi opened her eyes again. Her expression had already changed slightly. Her eyes were slightly raised, and her eyebrows were raised. Compared to the slightly timid and evasive fake Xiaozhi just now, this Xiaozhi in front of him was calm and composed. Her eyes were filled with pride, and she exuded confidence and control.

“I didn’t expect you to be so capable. You discovered it so quickly,” the fake Xiaozhi said calmly.

“You appeared outside Ninghe City.”

The fake Xiaozhi raised her eyebrows slightly. “That’s right. 1 was indeed the one who came out then.”

“Where’s my Xiaozhi?”

“She’s well and fine.” The fake Xiaozhi straightened her posture. “On the other hand, you’re really capable. You can hide so well that even the Lord Savior didn’t notice you.”

“Lord Savior? You mean Zhao Pan?”

“How dare you call my lord’s name directly!” The fake Xiaozhi raised her hand and pointed at Lin Yan angrily.

Lin Yan was unmoved. “Tell me, what do you want from me to make you let Xiaozhi back?”

“As long as you hand this body to Lord Savior, we won’t stop her from returning.”

Lin Yan paused for a moment, but he was actually gathering the spiritual power that he had unconsciously leaked. Spiritual power was an idealistic power that would change with his mental fluctuations.

“If she’s given to Zhao Pan, she’ll die.”

A hint of fanaticism and holiness appeared on the fake Xiaozhi’s face. “This is our common destiny! In order to save this world that is about to be devoured by the demons, we are willing to sacrifice our lives!”

“Therefore, there are six of you in total!”

The fake Xiaozhi was shocked. “How did you know?”

“So you are the other six cyborgs!”
