THE FAIRIES I FLIRTED WITH IN THE GAME BECAME REAL?!
Chapter 448 The Sky is DeadQiuye Villa, nestled between the foothills.
When Li Muyang saw the stone tablet by the road indicating the name of the place, he couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief.
He had finally arrived…
This short journey of eighty li, escorting this little girl with the talent of a Summoner who had been pursued by attackers, had at last reached the destination.
Those endless Qi Wu guards had wasted much of Li Muyang’s time by doggedly chasing them along the way.
With his current level of cultivation, even with high latency, he could annihilate a group of weaker soldiers.
But this monotonous game process of clearing minor monsters still gave him a headache.
Especially since these minor monsters, known as Qi Wu guards, occasionally erupted with special abilities that injured Li Muyang.
This was even more frustrating.
Being a game protagonist, a person of destiny, and to be killed by a roadside wild dog… where would one even begin to make sense of that?
Luckily, having Save-File Divine Skill for protection, these were not real issues.
Even if he flipped the cart a few times, he could still come back by reloading saves.
During this process, Li Muyang had gradually become adept at controlling puppet corpses.
His cooperation with the little girl had become more seamless.
But now, standing outside the gates of Red Leaf Villa, Li Muyang discovered that the destination seemed different from what was expected.
“…Are you sure this place is Red Leaf Villa?”
Li Muyang frowned at the deteriorated gates before him, looking skeptical.
Nie Yubing insisted she had been to Red Leaf Villa before and would not take the wrong path, so Li Muyang had been following the route she pointed out
But the villa’s gate before him was in ruins, the shadow wall was covered with cracks and bloodstains, and the ground was littered with withered leaves and overgrown weeds.
The entire villa seemed to have been abandoned for some time.
Could there be people in such a ruined residence?
The little girl also seemed puzzled when she saw the dilapidated villa.
“…It wasn’t like this the last time I came.”
That was all she could mutter.
Li Muyang floated in, saying, “Let’s go in and take a look.”
Since the main quest pointed here, even if there weren’t any NPCs inside, there would at least be a BOSS to fight.
Li Muyang led the little girl inside, only to see nothing but ruined walls and a desolate courtyard.
Nie Yubing murmured, “This place is the Prince’s other courtyard. I came here once before with my father and met an Immortal from the Mysterious Sword Sect, a Taoist from Chao Tian Guan, and a high monk from Ku Fo Ling.”
“The Prince was brewing an elixir of immortality in Red Leaf Villa back then, and it was very lively…”
But the former princely residence was now overgrown with weeds and dilapidated.
In many places within the courtyard, there still lingered gut-wrenching traces of blood.
This place had clearly experienced a catastrophe.
Since Li Muyang didn’t understand much about the dynastic forces of the Tian Yuan Dynasty, he withheld judgment.
He was only searching for possible signs of life within the villa, which gave him a headache.
Li Muyang had always loathed puzzle levels when playing games in his past life.
Fortunately, this time he did not need to solve puzzles.
He and the little girl hadn’t wandered long in the villa ruins when an NPC spontaneously appeared and came into their view.
“Are you… Lord Nie’s daughter?”
A ghostly figure, transparent and emanating a faint blue glow, drifted out from among the ruins.
His appearance was still quite handsome, but he had been a rakish individual in life, which lent his demeanour a somewhat decadent air.
Silently drifting out from the ruins, he blocked the path of the little girl. The ghost, dressed in royal attire, asked in surprise.
“Why have you come here?”
Upon seeing the ghost, the little girl immediately became excited.
She quickly bowed, then took out the wooden box given by her second mother and recounted everything that had happened along the way.
Including the extermination of the Nie family and her being pursued by the Qianwu Guard during her exile…
When he heard that the little girl was being chased by the Qianwu Guard, Prince Six’s gaze suddenly sharpened.
“The Qianwu Guard is chasing you?”
He immediately floated in front of the little girl, his gaze intensely fixed on her, as if trying to see her clearly.
The little girl was also startled by Prince Six’s intense reaction.
But a few seconds later, Prince Six averted his gaze, his expression became calm again, and he reverted to that lifeless, decadent air.
It seemed nothing unusual had been discovered.
He just coldly hovered in the middle of the ruins, speaking weakly.
“Since Tang Mengchen has instructed you to deliver the wooden box here, then this prince should protect your life.”
“But inside this villa, now turned to rubble, it’s hard for a living person like you to sustain life here.”
“I can cut off the ‘thread’ on you, making it so the Qianwu Guard can’t locate you.”
“But whether you can survive after that…” Prince Six’s ghost said and then sighed deeply, “will depend on your own efforts.”
Hearing Prince Six’s words, the little girl looked somewhat disappointed.
But she still spiritedly said, “Please, Prince, guide me through this confusion.”
Prince Six’s ghost directly extended his hand and carefully searched atop the little girl’s head for a while, finally pulling a thin thread from among her hair.
Seeing the existence of this thread, Prince Six’s expression seemed complex.
But he merely fell silent for a moment before abruptly yanking it, forcibly breaking the thread on top of the girl’s head.
Then he said to Nie Yubing, “The thread that the Qianwu Guard used to chase you has been severed by me; you are temporarily safe now.”
“But to be completely safe, you need to leave this land and hide beyond the border.”
“As long as you get outside the border, whether it’s the Qianwu Guard, the Emperor, or those monsters in the palace…none can harm you.”
“It’s just, for a little girl like you, getting to the border alive might be a bit troublesome.”
Having said this, Prince Six looked at the ten corpses that had followed Nie Yubing.
These ten corpses had followed Nie Yubing all the way, consuming many Qianwu Guard corpses, and seemed to possess even denser black aura.
Prince Six said, “There’s a treasure in my mansion, perfectly suited for you. But it currently resides in the hands of Spirit Feather King at Rooster Mountain. If you kill the Spirit Feather King and retrieve that item, maybe it can ensure your safe departure from within the border.”
While speaking, Prince Six gestured towards a stone statue beside him, saying, “I’ll leave this stone statue with you. With your abilities, you should be able to manage it.”
As Prince Six spoke, a system prompt appeared in front of Li Muyang.

The little girl hesitated a bit, then removed the threads from the ten corpses behind her.
As the ten corpses fell, the stone statue standing in the courtyard suddenly came to life.
But as this was her first time controlling such a heavy stone statue, its movements were somewhat stiff.
Prince Six said, “Go to Rooster Mountain then. The treasure in the hands of Spirit Feather King is much stronger than this Yellow Heaven Wrestler; it’s just that he doesn’t know how to use it.”
