Little Red sticks out its tongue

"Hiss hiss hiss hiss hiss"

Really, really!!

I only ate the chocolate and ice cream given by Su Gu.

Little Red stared with wide eyes, looking very innocent.

Su Gu listened, his eyelids twitching.

"Chocolate?"

Little Red is confused

"Hiss hiss hiss hiss hiss"

Yeah, didn’t you toss me a piece of chocolate to eat?

But at that time, it was crunchy and the situation was quite critical.

It felt like spitting it out was wasteful.

So, it gobbled it up without thinking.

Their gaze fell on Little Red’s stomach.

Little Red, aware of its mistake, curled itself up.

Wrapped itself up.

"Hiss hiss hiss hiss hiss"

I didn’t know that thing couldn’t be eaten!

Su Yan paled and nodded

"Well done."

Little Red thought it was about to get scolded.

Unexpectedly, it was praised.

It stole a glance at Su Yan to be sure.

Immediately, Little Red raised its head proudly.

"Hiss hiss hiss hiss hiss"

I’m the most awesome snake!

Su Gu extended a finger and tapped its head

"Did you see clearly what you ate?"

Little Red’s eyes sparkled

"Hiss hiss hiss hiss hiss"

Chocolate!!

Well, nothing more can be asked from its mouth.

Xiao Hua seemed puzzled

"Host, is that person from the Netherworld?"

Su Yan replied

"Yes"

Xiao Hua grew more puzzled

"But that person seems kind of different from Netherworld folks?"

At least it didn’t match Xiao Hua’s documents.

The Netherworld is a place birthed by the heavens and earth over thousands of years.

In humanity, it has many names.

Hell, Underworld.

And so on.

Originally, the Netherworld was just a pool of water.

Souls of those who’ve died go there, cleanse their past and present, then leap into the Reincarnation Path one by one to enter the next life.

Gradually, that pool evolved and expanded.

Then came its current name.

Netherworld.

Su Yan recalled that person’s appearance.

Her eyelashes fluttered, she spoke slowly

"It’s an Undying."

Xiao Hua was confused

"What?"

"No soul, no shadow, won’t die, nor be reborn."

This Undying is almost a legendary being.

They say they are creations of nature birthed by the heavens and earth.

Gifted with nature’s favor.

After all, they never die.

Who wouldn’t want eternal life?

Su Gu furrowed brows

"Can’t be killed?"

Su Yan shook her head

"Can be killed. Without battles, without enemies, they won’t die."

If they die, they are completely erased from existence.

Su Gu felt relieved hearing they can die.

Not mentioning other Undying.

They met that one.

Who laughed at them with arrogance and disdain, with an air of superiority.

Little Red ate their thing, one day it’ll encounter them again.

When that happens, if truly unkillable, Little Red might be the one dying.

In the midst of chatting, Su Yan paused.

Then looked at Xiao Hua and Su Gu

"You, not going to school?"

The topic shifted abruptly.

Catching them off guard.

Xiao Hua instantly slumped.

Sadly

"Host, can I not go to school anymore?"

"Why?"

Weren’t you into it earlier?

Xiao Hua counted on fingers

"I can’t do arithmetic, it’s too hard, I can’t"

Saying so, Xiao Hua is tearful.

Being human is exhausting.

Still have to solve problems.

Su Yan pondered for a while

"If you don’t go to class, what will you do at home? Accompany Song Yujing?"
