Tomb Raiders: After the Nine Gates Ancestor, they let loose and did whatever they wanted!

The Nine Gates leaders chuckled at Wei Wuxian's youthful pride, looking at him with loving eyes as he covered his bright red ears.

(?′?`?)

I can completely understand Feng Che's behavior.

After all, it's only natural for Ah-Xian to be cared for when he's injured.

They even have servants to wait on them at home.

It's just tying my hair up, no big deal!

Xianxian: (Puts on a cloak) (Blocks the view) (Puts on a mask) (Sits upright)

Great! ↗ No one noticed, perfect! ↗

Thanks to little brother Pi for once again providing a timely solution~

?? (????? ? ????) ??

Chenpi: I really will thank you. ^_^|||

At this moment, everyone watched with great interest as these two mischievous children, who were still quite young compared to them, bickered on the sidelines. Er Yuehong, as usual, acted as the referee, and Duan Guansi...

Everyone wore expressions of anticipation, and even the somber atmosphere of parting seemed to lighten considerably. Taking advantage of this lull, people chatted casually, bidding their final farewells.

……

"A-Xian, you were so badly injured during this separation. How long will it take for you to recover?"

"...Will we ever see each other again?"

Master Xie adjusted his glasses, rubbed his suit trousers, and asked cautiously and worriedly.

"The threads of fate are tangled and inextricable; now that I am too weak to see clearly, the points of the wheel of destiny are still connected..."

Upon hearing this, Wei Wuxian looked up at the sky, feeling as if he had heard a profound truth, and chose to remain silent.

He thought to himself, "I've already messed up the original Nine Gates. Who can predict what the future holds?"

Moreover, the nodes of the Wheel of Fortune are always connected. Even if one node is gone, will there be another?

This isn't exactly lying; Wei Wuxian is just telling the truth!

( ? ? ? )?)

Master Jie received an ambiguous answer, but his sixth sense told him that the day he would see Wei Wuxian again was not far off...

[Xianxian, should we send a message to Yan Ling and the others to let them know we're going back?]

Wei Wuxian was released from hypnosis, and the chibi version of Wei Wuxian disappeared. Ling Wu also returned from the spatial dimension to his original location in his sea of ​​consciousness and inquired...

"Ah~↗Little one, you could send messages to A-Ling and Little Star, why didn't you say so sooner?↗" Wei Wuxian said wearily.

He thought that once they separated, the distance would be too great, and telepathic communication would fail, leaving him with no choice but to waste spiritual energy sending messages via spirit teleportation.

It wasn't anything serious, and Wei Wuxian was always frugal and tried to avoid such unnecessary expenses. Little did he know that he had put his sweater on backwards and had gotten himself into trouble!

[Xianxian, you didn't ask either? Everyone in the Ghost Spirit Sect, and I, are all connected in spirit.]

The only difference is that one is an equal contract, and the other is a symbiotic relationship.

??

Therefore, even after the mechanical puppet is awakened, it can still enter the system space, and I can use it as a relay to send messages to everyone, just like a supercomputer in a novel! ↗

By the way, keeping up with the times, even before smartphones came along, I could still contact everyone anytime, anywhere with Tongtong here, Xianxian~

Upon hearing this, Wei Wuxian's eyes lit up. Although he wasn't as well-read as Feng Che, he had still read quite a bit, and a brilliant idea came to him.

"Hehe~...I see~ Then Xianxian can..."

(?w?)

"Stop!" Wei Wuxian replied, ceasing his daydreaming.

"Cough cough~"

I'm sorry, my dear little one, I misunderstood you.

Please let everyone know that there's no rush. The first thing Wei Wuxian needs to do upon returning to Hidden Life is to go to sleep and recharge.

Then tomorrow we'll have a long-awaited reunion dinner together! ↗”

( ??????w?????)??3??

The one who understands envy is Feng Che.

Feng Che: Help Xianbao clean up. Let's go straight to sleep when we get home. People with OCD can't stand going to bed dirty, especially in a new house! ↗

It's so late, and considering the intense mental exertion of today's work, including hypnosis and using all sorts of powerful techniques...

Even someone who works from 9 am to 1 pm must be exhausted! ↘

ヘ(＞_＜ヘ)

It's okay~

When Lingwu heard Wei Wuxian call it "my dear little one," its entire body flushed red with a mixture of shyness and excitement!

A pink bubble surrounded her~ She's so easily satisfied!

【Ahhhhhh—I, Ling Wu, am Xianxian's beloved commander! ↗】

[?( ? )??? ???( ? )????] Wei Wuxian was completely unaware of the excitement in Ling Wu's mind.

Because the paper puppets that survived the expedition have returned to report to their master! ↗

The paper puppets are agile and silently infiltrate various places. Their goal is to capture the hidden "it" that cannot be seen in the light!

Caught completely off guard, its people were terrified by the sudden attack of the paper puppets and tried to resist.

But the paper puppets' attacks came like a tidal wave, without any pattern, and "its" people could only obediently be captured.

?(?ˉ???ˉ???)?”

A group of paper puppets emerged like ghosts, their paper bodies holding "it"—a "living" creature whose life or death was unknown—simply by grabbing or pressing it!

The strangely shaped and grotesquely beautiful paper puppets set off, and returned in bizarre poses after about half an incense stick's time.

(?w?)hiahiahia~

Paper puppets, in orderly formation, passed through the barrier from the eaves of deserted streets and courtyards, silently "floating" to the ground.

Under the oppression of the paper figures, "it" had no power to resist and could only obediently submit!

Paper puppets: Our master ordered us not to frighten ordinary people in the middle of the night, so we must move quickly and quietly.

…?????…
