Quick Transmigration: Hosts, We're Only Responsible for Counterattacking

Chapter 245 The Soul of a Fallen Beauty (17)

Before she could do anything, Qi Mo had already made the choice for her.

Maintaining a proper distance, Qi Mo stood in front of her and said to Bai Tan, "It seems inappropriate for the abbot to come here so late at night; this is the inner palace."

Shen Yun watched Qi Mo's retreating figure and pondered for a moment whether there was something wrong with what he had said.

Bai Qin thought so too, but he wasn't shameless enough to say directly, "Aren't you here too?" So he could only say tactfully, "This humble Taoist is only worried about tomorrow's affairs. As for Prime Minister Qi, if His Majesty knew that Prime Minister Qi had not left the palace, he would probably be quite unhappy."

Da Mei and Xiao Shunzi had long since disappeared.

When intellectuals clash, every move is a sharp stab to the heart.

"Master, do not worry, His Majesty does not care about these formalities." Qi Mo added later, "However, this only applies to me."

Shen Yun's lips twitched. Why did she suddenly feel like she could smell dog food?

"Is there really no such relationship between Qi Mo and Yuan Zhou?" She was very skeptical about this.

2345 paused, then said somewhat guiltily, "No, I don't think so."

Bai Qin also vaguely sensed that something was wrong with what he said, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

"When the birds are all gone, the good bow is put away. I wonder if Prime Minister Qi has ever heard this saying?" Bai Tan did not think that Qi Mo's appearance was deliberate.

Because apart from cultivators like him, there are probably not many people in this world who can see Princess Ruyi.

Qi Mo lazily raised his eyelids. "The meaning behind the abbot's words is quite intriguing."

At this moment, Qi Mo's perception of Bai Tan as a reclusive master completely collapsed. This so-called reclusive master seemed to be doing something to sow discord.

Moreover, it's quite strange that Bai Tan stirred up trouble between him and Yuan Zhou; his motives are worth investigating.

After all, he didn't think Bai Tan was trying to take advantage of their infighting to reap the benefits.

If that were the case, then Bai Tan could have stormed the imperial city before Yuanzhou. If he had done so, then probably no one would have resisted.

"However, I am a proud person who only believes in myself, so the abbot need not worry about me."

Bai Qin stroked his goatee, his eyes showing a hint of regret. "Prime Minister Qi is so intelligent, what a pity."

With that, he turned and left.

Shen Yun looked at the hat that was obediently sitting on his head and couldn't help but purse his lips. There must be something fishy about this hat; it must have been made with glue.

As soon as Qi Mo turned around, he saw Shen Yun grinning at Bai Tan.

Qi Mo's expression suddenly became complicated.

He wasn't afraid of Bai Tan even when he was alive. Even if he was of noble status, he shouldn't be like this.

Qi Mo looked at her with some curiosity, but after a while, he couldn't see anything special about her.

It seemed no different from the ones he had seen before.

I've heard that the greater one's resentment, the greater one's abilities.

But no matter how he looked at it, Zhao Ruyi didn't seem to harbor any resentment.

Anyway, in the dozen or so times he encountered this, he always had a good time.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Shen Yun grinned. "Do you think I'm as beautiful as an angel, and you're so captivated by my beauty that you've fallen in love with me?"

It really doesn't seem like someone with a lot of resentment.

"Don't stay in the palace these next few days. If I'm not mistaken, Bai Tan's target is you." Qi Mo looked at the shadow floating towards her and subconsciously took a few steps back.

Shen Yun shook his head, his hair flying behind him like the quills of a hedgehog. "No, I just like to challenge myself."

Qi Mo suddenly wanted to curse, but the swear words were on the tip of her tongue and she just couldn't say them. "If you get caught by Bai Tan, you'll be in a lot of pain."

Shen Yun wiped her eyes with feigned sadness, "I'm already in so much pain. Being pushed off the city wall was bad enough, but now I'm being shunned and vomited on."

Qi Mo: ...He really didn't mean it. "I'm not disgusted by you."

Shen Yun sighed, "Look, just a few days ago you were calling me Your Highness, and now you're all 'you, you, you'."

"..." Qi Mo was silent for a while, then suddenly looked at her intently, "Actually, I am also the prime minister, second only to the emperor, and the current prime minister."

2345, the person with the "spectator's face" expression, didn't quite understand why they were suddenly comparing their social status.

Shen Yun wasn't angry. Instead, he chuckled twice and said, "Identity doesn't matter. We're all human, and everyone is equal."

Qi Mo said strangely, "I am human, that's true, but you... seem... not."

Although he spoke haltingly, he still managed to finish his sentence.

I'm so annoyed, and what's worse, she didn't say anything in rebuttal.

Shen Yun habitually bit her fingers and spun around in place.

2345 added background music to her music.

The magic of love goes round and round, thinking of you makes my heart bloom day and night...

Finally, Dog was shocked to discover that he had gone bald.

It still feels fluffy to the touch, but no matter how you look at it, it looks like a plucked chicken ready to be cooked.

2345: Looking at myself in the mirror, I suddenly felt a little nauseous.

Especially its pair of pinkish-white little wings, which look just like chicken wing tips.

But how did the host manage to do that?
2345, secluded in a corner, seriously pondered this question.

Obviously, the previous world hosts couldn't do this, otherwise they would have possessed not only a plucked chicken, but also the ugliest of the birds.

Curiosity gradually overcame his autism, and 2345 couldn't help but ask a question.

“It’s me!” A tender voice reached 2345’s ears.

2345 stared in horror at the system space. Had something incredible entered?

"You're the one who's a 'thing,' your whole family are 'things.'" The voice carried a hint of anger.

Now 2345 dared not complain in his heart.

"I am Yunyun's little cutie."

Shen Yun: She didn't say that.

2345 was startled and quickly asked, "Host, when did you get a little cutie? Didn't you say I was the one?"

Shen Yun was stunned; she didn't seem to have said those words before.

"You're talking nonsense! Yunyun is mine! How dare you, you ugly thing, compete with my affections?" Her voice suddenly became irritable.

Shen Yun hesitated for a moment, but still felt that these words were hurtful to her ears. "Luo Luo, girls should be more refined."

2345 then realized that the one who had been speaking was the bracelet on the host's wrist. No wonder the voice sounded so familiar. But wasn't it always a very cute voice before? Why is it so irritable now?

"You're the one who's short-tempered. Yunyun said she's a fairy." The little girl said angrily.

2345 grinned, but couldn't keep it to itself; it had to remember.

Qi Mo silently turned around, but instead of leaving, she stood at the entrance of the Cold Palace, found a stool, and sat down.

"Why don't you leave?" Shen Yun squatted on the ground, resting her chin on her hand as she looked at him.

2345 and Luo Luo had a "pleasant" chat, and Shen Yun, adhering to a laissez-faire policy, did not intend to interfere with them.
