Transmigrated villain – My Fiancée Orders Me To Beg The Male Lead's Forgiveness-Chapter 552 - "That Great Lord"
Chapter 552: “That Great Lord”
—
Honestly, with protagonists like Xiang Shaotian, Wang Haoran had absolutely no clue how the plot would unfold.
After all, nine out of ten novels featuring this kind of character ended up getting dropped halfway through the “memory playback.”
The protagonist would just sit there motionless the entire time, and the heroines wouldn’t do much either, aside from “regretting deeply” and “crying their eyes out.”
Meanwhile, the random bystanders would be gasping in shock and providing lively commentary and explanations!
Besides, Wang Haoran hadn’t even met the real Xiang Shaotian yet.
So, he had no way of knowing what method Xiang Shaotian might use for his “memory playback.”
He had asked Lin Chaoyin and the others, confirming they didn’t possess any bizarre artifacts capable of “replaying someone else’s memories.”
But there could always be other heroines involved.
Of course, there was also the possibility that “the system couldn’t stand it anymore and started broadcasting the memories.”
Or perhaps “the Heavenly Dao, moved by his merits and lamenting his suffering, decided to reveal the memories so the world would know his great deeds.”
`The second one seems unlikely though...`
`Forget it, I’ll ask about the Inner Realm first!`
With that thought, Wang Haoran pulled the cool little snake from his chest.
“Little snake, wake up. I have questions for you!”
He also gently patted the little fox lying on his thigh:
“You too, little fox!”
As demon beasts, they could cultivate even while sleeping, so they often maintained the habit.
Right now.
After Wang Haoran’s... session with Xiang Shaoling, the little fox curled up on his lap seemed even more comfortable, almost drooling in her sleep.
Woken by Wang Haoran’s pat, she sleepily nuzzled his hand with her head, “It’s so early, what’s wrong?”
“Yeah!” By now, Rain Master Tan was certain. Tu Shan Yingyu had completely forgotten her mission because she was obsessed with this Wang Haoran!
But knowing didn’t help.
Now, she herself was “deep behind enemy lines.”
Her cool body was being used as a... cooling tool.
After being picked up by Wang Haoran, she expertly coiled around his wrist:
“If you have something to say, say it quickly!”
“It’s nothing major. I just wanted to ask, what was your purpose in coming to our Outer World?”
“...N-nothing, really. This naughty little fox wouldn’t go back, so I just came to check on her...”
Rain Master Tan didn’t even believe her own lie. Seeing the “keep making stuff up” look in Wang Haoran’s eyes.
She guiltily rubbed against his palm—
Mimicking the little fox’s way of acting cute, hoping to get away with it.
“It’s true...”
“...You really think I don’t know by now? You came here to open the so-called ‘Door,’ right?”
“But that’s not what I want to ask right now.”
Wang Haoran said helplessly, “Earlier, there was a strange aura coming from the North.”
“An aura very similar to you Inner Realm folks.”
“Do you know anything about it?”
“...Snakey doesn’t know!”
“......”
“Alright, let me ask you this then. That ‘King of the Inner Realm’ you guys have, the most powerful one—what’s His deal? Daring to call Himself ‘God’!”
“You keep calling Him ‘That Great Lord,’ but He must have a name, right?”
Like Sha-something, maybe...
“......”
Seeing Rain Master Tan remain silent, Wang Haoran stated coolly:
“The little fox already told me that your ‘Five Ancestors’ have seen His true form.”
“If you still claim you don’t know, then don’t blame me for being impolite!”
Saying this, he brought the little snake right up to his face:
“Let me tell you, people call me the ‘Little Prince of Divine Cuisine’.”
“I’ve mastered all eighteen kinds of cooking techniques.”
“Stir-frying a little snake like you would be a piece of cake for me!”
“Y-You wouldn’t dare!”
Stared down by Wang Haoran, Rain Master Tan suddenly felt scared—
This guy actually wants to cook her!
Especially while she was in this form!
“You can’t do this!”
“If you don’t want to become a dish, then start talking!”
“...Wuu...”
“...Okay, fine.”
Rain Master Tan finally gave in—
“That Great Lord’s name is Yao Ye.”
“She is the legendary divine beast—the Phoenix!”
Rain Master Tan suddenly changed her strategy.
Lady Yao Ye is so powerful, even if Wang Haoran knows this, it won’t matter!
Stubbornly staying silent is pointless!
Besides, letting Wang Haoran know how powerful the Great Lord is might scare him into surrendering!
Then, she could turn the tables and make Wang Haoran her pet!
She wasn’t leaking intel; she was persuading Wang Haoran to surrender!
“Lady Yao Ye wields incredibly powerful flames and is said to possess immortality!”
“I don’t know how strong the Great Lord truly is, but the five of us ancestors combined couldn’t withstand a single blow!”
Saying this, Rain Master Tan smirked at Wang Haoran:
“Let me warn you, Lady Yao Ye’s flames can burn through anything.”
“This pathetic chain of yours might work on me, but it definitely won’t work on the Great Lord!”
“Wang Haoran, know your place.”
“You should surrender now!”
“If you surrender now, I can overlook your previous offenses against me!”
However, while the death penalty might be avoided, punishment was still necessary!
Not only would she make him her pet!
She’d also make him her bed!
Unaware that the little fox had once had similar thoughts, Rain Master Tan thought smugly.
When that time comes, she wouldn’t have to be sneaky anymore!
Hmph, then I’ll drive this wretched fox far away!
By now, Rain Master Tan felt none of her previous “affection” for Tu Shan Yingyu as a junior.
And for good reason.
One morning, waking up curled on Wang Haoran’s chest, her eyes opened.
For some reason, she found herself captivated by Wang Haoran’s sharply defined jawline.
`So handsome...`
Still half-asleep, she instinctively slithered closer and flicked her tongue out...
Only to be seen by that wretched fox!
“Hehe, little snake, are you thinking about...”
The little fox mocked her condescendingly, pressing a small paw against Wang Haoran’s chin.
—However, not long after.
As the fox continued her teasing, she too instinctively stuck out her little tongue...
And then both little animals hid their faces in shame.
