Villain: After I died, all the heroines cried themselves to sleep.

Chapter 306 Suffering for the Sake of Saving Face

After much persuasion, Luo Chuan finally convinced Teacher Lin that he had absolutely no improper thoughts about Jiang Xueyi.

"Ultimately, if I really was suppressing it, wouldn't it have been better to just go to Lu Zhiyao?"

Luo Chuan shamelessly stuck to his guns, using Lu Zhiyao as a shield.

Ms. Kobayashi stared at him for a long time.

He nodded.

"Even if you like Xueyi, it's useless. From what I know of Xueyi, she looks down on people who are weaker than her."

Jiang Xueyi is a once-in-a-millennium genius.

Unlike Luo Chuan and others who need to participate in an awakening ceremony.

She is a born awakener, possessing talent surpassing S-class from the moment she was born.

Now he has become the youngest seventh-tier Martial Grandmaster in history.

Even though Luo Chuan's generation is full of geniuses.

Compared to Jiang Xueyi, she still appears lackluster.

"If that's the case, then there's no problem, right?"

Luo Chuan said dismissively.

Just as there are women with a growth-oriented destiny like Xu Xiaojin, there are also women with a genius-type destiny like Jiang Xueyi.

Didn't you understand what I meant?

Ms. Kobayashi took a sip of coffee and put the cup down.

"I mean, even if I begged Xueyi to take care of you, they might not agree."

And that is indeed the case.

When she made the request to Jiang Xueyi.

Unsurprisingly, Jiang Xueyi rejected him.

"You really underestimate me..."

Luo Chuan laughed in exasperation.

But he wasn't in a hurry.

Anyway, they'll come knocking on our door soon.

After all, Luo Chuan has a cheat code by his side.

……

In the following days, Luo Chuan didn't even bother to act anymore.

"According to the information provided by Ms. Kobayashi, the mastermind behind the riots in the city is very likely the Sequencer member nicknamed Shadow Demon that Jiang Xueyi is currently pursuing."

In the hotel room, Group Leader Luo Chuan gave a serious explanation, looking at the group members around him.

Besides Xu Xiaojin, even Ye Ling came to join in the fun.

As for Ms. Kobayashi, who serves as an advisor.

She stood to the side, arms crossed, numbly watching everything.

Despite Luo Chuan's sincere persuasion, she ultimately couldn't stop him from messing around.

The only option was to cover for Luo Chuan.

"The Shadow Demon is a seventh-tier Martial Grandmaster. He not only possesses talents related to shadow, but also has a forbidden ability to summon demons."

"He is currently creating unrest in the city by secretly spreading this forbidden ability."

"His true purpose has not yet been determined."

This is all the information related to Shadow Fiend that the Disaster Management Agency has investigated.

Luo Chuan paused for a moment before raising the corners of his mouth.

"Fortunately, all we need to do is find him; we don't need to know his true purpose."

On the Hunter app, a bounty quest was posted offering clues about the Shadow Demon.

Because all that is required is a clue.

Therefore, the hunter level is limited to D rank or higher.

Among the active members of Dark Moon Sword, Ye Ling is a B-rank member, while Luo Chuan and Xu Xiaojin are D-rank members.

The conditions are fully met.

"Our Darkmoon Sword has a huge advantage in intelligence gathering."

Luo Chuan tapped on the table.

He was telling the truth.

Xu Xiaojin's intelligence is self-evident.

Ye Ling is also a skilled assassin who excels at stealth.

And Mr. Kobayashi's network of contacts allows him to provide firsthand information from both official and unofficial sources at any time.

Let's take a closer look.

Luo Chuan is the most useless one.

"Ahem! Anyway, Ye Ling will be in charge of searching the sewers next to see if she can find any clues."

"Xu Xiaojin and I continued to deal with the demon disturbances and tried to locate the Shadow Demon."

"The remaining logistical tasks will be left to the most capable Ms. Kobayashi."

Luo Chuan chuckled at Teacher Xiaolin.

Ms. Kobayashi's face fell.

She hung her head and covered her face with her hands in despair.

"I can't do anything. I just want to be a good teacher. Why are you treating me like this? Am I destined to be busy all my life, always running around for others?"

"I also want a vacation, I also want to live a peaceful life..."

Listening to Ms. Kobayashi's rambling.

Xu Xiaojin and Ye Ling both turned to glance at Luo Chuan.

"..."

Luo Chuan was immediately ashamed.

There's no way around it, Ms. Kobayashi finds it too convenient to use, so we can only continue to put her through this ordeal...

No matter what.

Under Luo Chuan's arrangement, the Dark Moon Sword was fully mobilized.

The first to achieve a breakthrough was Ye Ling from the sewers.

Her investigation revealed...

The sewers contained traces of barely perceptible spiritual energy.

Judging from the nature of its spiritual energy, the Shadow Demon is very likely to travel through the city via the dark sewers.

Not long after.

Luo Chuan and Xu Xiaojin also made progress.

In a recent emergency request to deal with demons, Xu Xiaojin activated [Sky Net Link] on the demons and successfully sensed the aura of the Shadow Demon.

Although it lasted only a moment, it gave everyone a glimmer of hope.

Luo Chuan had no intention of hiding it.

He asked Ms. Kobayashi to pass the information to the Disaster Management Bureau and spread the news as much as possible.

This not only increased the Darkmoon Sword's reputation but also allowed him to collect the bounty.

Don't get too carried away.

Only Ms. Kobayashi frowned.

"Aren't we being too ostentatious? Wouldn't it be better to make a fortune quietly?"

"Don't worry, Ms. Kobayashi, everything is under control."

Luo Chuan revealed a meaningful smile.

……

As they followed the clues, they got closer and closer to Shadow Fiend.

Not surprisingly.

While dealing with the riot, Luo Chuan and Xu Xiaojin encountered Jiang Xueyi.

Jiang Xueyi raised her hand and summoned countless silver spears.

Instantly kill demons.

Has the main character finally appeared? We've been waiting for so long.

Luo Chuan looked up at Jiang Xueyi.

He works so hard largely because he wants to get closer to Jiang Xueyi.

Previously, system task updates were all clearly indicated.

[Objective: Investigate the members of the Order, seize the opportunity to approach the Lady of Destiny, and find her weakness.]

"Senior Jiang Xueyi? What a coincidence to see you here!"

Luo Chuan greeted Jiang Xueyi with a smile.

With the combined effects of "life is like a play" and "shamelessness," his acting skills have reached a point where it's impossible to distinguish between reality and fiction.

It's quite natural for them to strike up a conversation.

"It's not a coincidence."

Jiang Xueyi spoke in a steady tone.

She retracted her steel wings and gently landed back on the ground.

They immediately got straight to the point.

"If you're deliberately looking for Shadow Fiend, then we'll meet sooner or later."

"Senior, you've misunderstood. It's not that I deliberately sought out Shadow Fiend; it just so happens that Shadow Fiend is the mastermind behind it all."

Luo Chuan spoke fluently and without hesitation.

"..."

Jiang Xueyi gave Luo Chuan a deep look.

But they didn't make a big deal out of it.

"Enough of the small talk, I'm going to see Teacher Kobayashi."

"Ms. Kobayashi? Why don't you just contact her by phone? Why come all the way here?"

Luo Chuan pretended not to understand.

I couldn't help but find it a little funny.

Jiang Xueyi clearly wanted to seek cooperation, but she was too embarrassed to ask them directly.

I'd rather go the long way around and ask Teacher Lin for help.

To die is to face and suffer.

as predicted.

Waiting to see Ms. Kobayashi.

Jiang Xueyi then walked to the side and talked with the other party.

After a while, Ms. Kobayashi came to Luo Chuan with a sigh.

"Luo Chuan, the Disaster Management Bureau has sent a request. We are the most likely to find the Shadow Fiend's whereabouts, but we lack the power to counter him."

"It just so happens that Xueyi is also capturing the Shadow Demon, and she has almost invincible strength below the Martial Venerable level."

"So I hope we can work together to capture the Shadow Fiend."

"Is that so..."

Luo Chuan looked at Jiang Xueyi with a half-smile.

Jiang Xueyi maintained a solemn expression and spoke calmly.

"This is a suggestion from the Disaster Management Agency; we each take what we need."

"But it's just a suggestion. Strictly speaking, you can refuse if you don't want to."

Luo Chuan kindly reminded Jiang Xueyi.

"..."

Jiang Xueyi kept a straight face and didn't say anything.

Luo Chuan suppressed a laugh, finally giving him a chance to retaliate.

Unfortunately, he still had system tasks to complete, otherwise he would have decisively refused.

After a brief stalemate, Jiang Xueyi seemed to be getting impatient.

Luo Chuan then changed the subject and chuckled.

"Hehe... I often tell my classmates that my senior is my idol, so of course I wouldn't refuse to collaborate with her. Besides, I need her help anyway..."

Before Jiang Xueyi could respond, Teacher Lin breathed a sigh of relief.

"Since you've accepted it, Luo Chuan, let's work together."

"Okay, let's cooperate."

Jiang Xueyi nodded and readily agreed.

Luo Chuan also used this opportunity to get close to Jiang Xueyi.

Xu Xiaojin, however, was somewhat puzzled and quietly asked Luo Chuan.

"This is the first time I've heard that Jiang Xueyi is your idol?"

"I was just making this up, and you actually believed me?"

Luo Chuan twitched the corner of his mouth.

He didn't even know Jiang Xueyi before, let alone have her as an idol.

However, it is true that he needs the other party's help.

Everything is ready.

Next, it's time to eliminate the Shadow Fiend.
