Chapter 407 Two studious guys
"Are you going out?" Di Tian asked calmly, his hand wiping his armor momentarily pausing.
"Yaoyao and I went out to play. We're so bored here all day. This is a good opportunity to gather intelligence and information for the boss." Ye Nanxiao could easily hear the dissatisfaction in Di Tian's words, so he immediately used helping Gu Yuena gather information as a reason.
As expected, upon hearing that it was to provide information to Gu Yuena, Di Tian's furrowed brows immediately relaxed, and he continued wiping the armor in his hands.
"Demon Spirit, protect the strategist's safety," Di Tian said without looking up.
The demon nodded quickly, squatted down, picked up Ye Nanxiao, and placed him on its head.
The spirit was overjoyed to be able to escape.
Recently, Di Tian's majesty has grown stronger, and his words and actions have become increasingly focused on his identity as a beast god.
This was completely unbearable for the usually restless and unconventional demon spirit.
So when Ye Nanxiao appeared, the demon spirit knew that its opportunity had come.
It had also asked Emperor Tian to let it go out to fight and conquer territories like Xiong Jun and Chi Wang, or at the very least to take up a job like Wan Yao Wang, rather than stay here with Emperor Tian.
However, Di Tian refused, citing his role as a demon spirit serving as a strategist and bodyguard.
Wherever Ye Nanxiao is, the demon spirit must be there too; this is Emperor Tianxia's only absolute order.
It's not just because Ye Nanxiao plays a significant role in Xingdou, but also because Ye Nanxiao was personally appointed by Gu Yuena.
Di Tian had to keep a close eye on Ye Nanxiao, and Yao Ling was a spy placed beside Ye Nanxiao, though Yao Ling herself was unaware of it.
Sitting on the spirit's head, Ye Nanxiao skillfully curled two strands of hair into a joystick and glanced back at Di Tian.
Di Tian continued to polish his armor, but his demeanor was completely different from when they first met.
Ye Nanxiao understood that Di Tian had already placed him in the position of the Soul Beast Emperor.
Having held the throne for a long time, one's temperament changes drastically, making it impossible for others to guess one's thoughts. One can only try to discern a hint of what one is thinking by observing one's words and expressions.
This is what people mean when they say, "Serving a ruler is like serving a tiger."
"Di Tian is becoming more and more like an emperor," Ye Nanxiao remarked.
"Emperor? The emperor among the ruling class of the human world?" the demon spirit asked.
"It seems you've finished reading all the books I found for you," Ye Nanxiao said with a smile.
The demon's face broke into a wide smile, like a child who had just received praise from their teacher.
"Of course! This is a plan you tailored for me to become stronger, strategist! Of course I have to carry it out seriously!" the demon spirit said proudly.
"If you carry it out diligently, that would be the best outcome." Ye Nanxiao slumped onto the demon spirit's head.
Yao Ling wasn't the only one diligently carrying out Ye Nanxiao's plan. Di Tian also had Ye Nanxiao's plan, and he was executing it exceptionally well, no longer satisfied with Ye Nanxiao's plan, and began to explore it on his own.
Ye Nanxiao's original plan for Di Tian was to imitate the path of human emperors.
Di Tian's strength is formidable, and he cultivates the techniques left behind by the Dragon God. Ye Nanxiao has no way to offer advice on this, and can only offer suggestions on Di Tian's methods of rule as the Beast God.
The result was that Di Tian's learning progress was extremely outstanding, and he already showed signs of becoming a human emperor.
"Strategist, how long are we going to be gone this time?" the demon spirit asked as it half-submerged into the ground.
"It will probably take about half a year," Ye Nanxiao estimated his break time in his mind.
For Gu Yuena, half a year was just a short period of time to be lost in thought.
"Half a year! That's a bit short, but it's enough for fun," the spirit said casually.
She is the one who has spent the most time with Ye Nanxiao besides Gu Yuena in the core circle of the Lake of Life, and is also the one most influenced by Ye Nanxiao. She has almost adapted to the human world and can disguise herself as an ordinary human to walk in the world.
In terms of the concept of time, the spirits have also adapted the way the human world perceives time.
"You want to play for a few more years?" Ye Nanxiao patted the demon spirit's head and laughed.
"Of course! After we go back, strategist, you'll return to the Lake of Life, and I'll have to stay by the boss's side. That will feel like an eternity!" The demon spirit couldn't help but sigh.
"What's wrong? Aren't you happy being with your dear boss?" Ye Nanxiao remembered that this guy was the first to accept Di Tian as his boss.
"No, it's just that, well, I can't be too casual in front of the boss, otherwise he'll get upset," the spirit said, pouting.
"Although your true form is mysterious, I mostly feel that you have monkey blood in your veins," Ye Nanxiao said with a smile.
"Compared to other soul beasts with the same shadow talent, you're more like a monkey."
Upon hearing this, the demon spirit immediately asked resentfully, "Is the strategist scolding me?"
"Haha, strictly speaking, it's a metaphor. You might not understand it, but I do," Ye Nanxiao joked.
"Oh, I see. Looks like I need to read more books," the demon spirit said with a sudden realization.
Under Ye Nanxiao's protection, the demon spirit quickly emerged from the Star Dou Great Forest and headed straight for the nearest village.
Looking at the village full of life before him, Ye Nanxiao had a strange feeling. It was like when you've crossed a vast desert and passed through a desolate area, and the first person you see makes you want to rush up and say hello.
"Finally, I can see signs of human habitation again," Ye Nanxiao exclaimed, as if from another lifetime.
Since falling out of the time cloud, Ye Nanxiao has spent more than a hundred years in this unfamiliar space-time, and he has even begun to get used to the body of the Spirit Blossom Grass.
"Why are you suddenly feeling sentimental, strategist?" Yao Ling asked, puzzled by Ye Nanxiao's sudden change in appearance and his weathered look.
"You wouldn't understand now," Ye Nanxiao said meaningfully.
"Is that so? Strategist, didn't you say that riddle tellers are the most annoying? Why didn't you say it more completely?" the demon spirit said somewhat discontentedly.
How could its nature tolerate the riddle-maker?
"Ahem, isn't the village chief you've been so obsessed with that skinny old man?" Ye Nanxiao asked, pointing in a direction.
"Yes, yes, yes! It's that old man! This old man is really amazing! Every night he starts practicing stealth, sneaking into other houses silently! He must be a master stealth expert!" the demon spirit said, her eyes shining.
Ye Nanxiao looked at the suspicious old man and seemed to see his surname on the old man's face.
Could the old man's surname be Wang?
"The stealth you're talking about, it does allow you to stealth, but the problem is, this stealth seems to have a slightly shady aspect?"
"Ah! The old man has infiltrated! Strategist, let's go quickly! Don't miss him!" The demon spirit hurriedly used its soul power to envelop Ye Nanxiao and suddenly plunged into the shadows.
"wait!!"
Ye Nanxiao's words were completely ignored by the excited demon spirit.
Following the shadow in the corner of the room, the demon quietly opened its two eyes.
At this moment, the sounds of fighting inside the house gradually intensified.
"I don't think this old man is some kind of stealth master. Let's go, Yao Yao!" Ye Nanxiao heard the strange noises inside the house and thought he should leave quickly to avoid seeing something terrible.
"Eh? But strategist, I've finally met a master of stealth! Let's take a look!" The demon spirit rejected Ye Nanxiao's suggestion and insisted on observing.
"Alright, you're not allowed to ask anything later!" Ye Nanxiao said helplessly. His current body was not as fast as a cat, and he still couldn't leave the Demon Spirit submarine beneath him.
Hearing the increasingly intense sounds of fighting, the demon spirit burrowed into a shadowy corner with exceptionally clear visibility and stared wide-eyed.
"Strategist, is this what fighting means?"
I think it is, and it isn't.
"The Riddler!!"
Ye Nanxiao remained completely unmoved, after all, he was just a blade of grass now.
"But this old man is interesting! He has quite a few fighting techniques."
A shadow, a blade of grass, all possess a thirst for knowledge.
From verbal exchanges to body language, the demon was completely bewildered.
Soon, the old man activated his stealth skill, carefully opened the window, and his somewhat hunched body emerged from the window like a nimble fish, his movements extremely swift and skillful.
The old man moved between the various rooms, making full use of the shelters.
The smug old man was completely unaware that a shadow and a blade of grass were staring at him with wide eyes.
"Strategist, I think..."
"No, you don't want to!"
"Was what you just saying the skill's pre-cast animation time?"
"Where have you ever seen a skill's wind-up animation take the time it takes to brew two cups of tea? Even the Red King only needs the time it takes to brew a cup of tea!"
"I have a feeling that you're criticizing the Red King, strategist."
"I don't."
A moment later, in a small forest, Ye Nanxiao stared blankly at the demon spirit who had transformed into a master imitator.
The old man's movements were perfectly replicated by the demon spirit.
If Ye Nanxiao hadn't been sitting high up and watching the demon spirit from the very beginning, he wouldn't have been able to keep his eyes on the demon spirit the whole time.
"Strategist, I think it works!" The demon spirit gave a thumbs up; he had already learned the old man's stealth skill!
"Yes, yes." Ye Nanxiao waved two blades of grass as if clapping.
So it seems there are many hidden masters among ordinary people.
"Where do we go next, strategist?" Having had her fill of fun, the demon spirit placed Ye Nanxiao back on its head.
"Let me think... Our next target will be the city. There's a lot of people there, and the diverse crowds and more intuitive social systems will help you learn faster. But we still need to choose our target carefully." Ye Nanxiao shook his head.
In this familiar city, Ye Nanxiao had to be careful, fearing he might leave some traces that would disrupt the original timeline.
Whether this spacetime is connected to his own spacetime, and whether his current actions will affect the future, Ye Nanxiao was not sure.
Therefore, Ye Nanxiao had to be very careful with every move, using the demon spirit's shield ability to hide in the shadows and ensure that he would not trigger a butterfly effect in history.
If you disrupt some processes and cause everything you are familiar with in the future to change, then it will be a loss that outweighs the gains.
