“Approximately where in the timeline are we now?” Despite extreme dislike of the system’s appearance, Xue Ling’s priority was still his tails, so he still had to complete things like his tasks well.

“Uh…” At the foot of the bed, the system wrapped its arms around its head as it looked it up and said timidly, “The bad news is that your jade token has been handed over to the protagonist. The good news is that he has just left. If you hurry now, you can still go to the capital to expose him before the imperial examination begins.”

Xue Ling stretched out his palm and stared at his five pale fingers. Probably due to writing all the time, the fingers had calluses. It seemed that the original owner had an inexplicable attachment to studying and the imperial examination. “It doesn’t matter whether it’s good news or bad news, there is something that can be done at every time period. This story is so full of plot holes, there are many places where we can catch a ‘bug’.”

The system tugged on its ears and looked over at Xue Ling. Seeing his slightly upturned lips, it trembled a little without knowing why. hWDmf9

Inexplicably, it wanted to light candles for the protagonist that they hadn’t even met.

“Speaking of which…” The system raised some strange questions. “Host, are you surprised? This is a *** novel. The two protagonists are both men… “

“Have seen a lot, don’t feel anything.” Xue Ling obviously didn’t want to talk about it at all. He placed the fox next to his pillow and lay down. “Although this body’s physical fitness has been improved, it’s still in a very bad state. We should take full advantage of any resting opportunity.”

“Eh!” The system was very puzzled. “Host, why aren’t you thinking about how to deal with the protagonist? Once he is brought to the General’s golden thigh, you won’t be able to beat him with your current weak body!”

“This is not a fight, use your brain.” For a long time he had no body. Now, even sleeping allowed Xue Ling to feel very good. “He is now holding the identity of a young master, mixing well and prospering. To attack some people, we must first let them stand high.”

“Oh… So, host is raising the difficulty for yourself?”

“Let’s take it as it goes.” Xue Ling stretched. “Anyway, the protagonist’s name is not real, and his ability is not that good, as long as anyone checks they will know what’s going on. I don’t want to waste this brainpower.”

“…” The system found itself speechless. Q3fGYj

This was not right, host, wasn’t your attitude too casual? Who were we dealing with?!

Xue Ling turned over, narrowed his eyes and smiled. “Anyway, it will take me a long time to get my body cultivated again. Now that I have this free body, I want to enjoy it first.”

System: “…”

A host like this… Could he really accomplish the task?! 2uvcG0

When the boy opened the door the next morning to help his young master wash, he saw a young man who was ready to go. He was a little muddled for a while and didn’t know what was going on at all. From young, the young master always got up late because of his body. He slept more in the daytime and had insomnia at night, so he always slept late in the morning.

The little apprentice always told himself to do well every day, but today he felt very frustrated.

He lowered his head and called out, “Little Master.”

The young master was in extraordinary good spirits today, the blue clothes that had not been worn for a long time were on his body, unusually elegant, just a glance made the little apprentice blush. “How did you get up so early? And didn’t even wait for me to help freshen up.” V06zhO

Soon after Xue Ling got up, he took a look at this young master’s body. He found that it was unexpectedly good.

After all, this was the child of a literary family, at first sight he gave people the feeling of a beautiful youth, coupled with a weak and delicate appearance. Just standing there, he looked exactly like a small white lotus, or a pure, naturally harmless type.

Unfortunately, his eyes were out of tune with this cowardly look. His fox eyes were a little narrower than a phoenix’s, but strangely, his eyes were not small. There was a small mole in the corners of his eyes, and paired with curly eyelashes, when his eyelids were slightly hooded, it was simply irresistible.

Xue Ling touched the blurry bronze mirror and stared at the reflection, asking the system. “What’s with these eyes and mole?” ZddX5D

The system followed his example and looked at his face. Although it had seen it before when its host woke up yesterday, it still felt that it was very amazing. “This was the Ten Directions World’s decision in order to prevent host from losing himself in the world. After all, you are living as another person, it is easy to become a stranger. These are your eyes and your mole… “

“What about the people in this world? Won’t anyone who has seen this body before wonder why my eyes have changed?”

“They will not perceive it.” The system was confident on this point. Although they were faced with the son of luck, as the protagonist of a low-level world, he had not broken the bonds of the Ten Directions World, so the Ten Directions World could make changes that the people of this world would not be aware of. “But you cannot be too seriously OOC…”

The two were still talking when the little book boy pushed the door open and came in. MDWmEd

Xue Ling stretched out his hand and touched his eyes. He turned and looked at the little bookboy. “Xiao Qing, tidy up, let’s go to the capital.”

“Ah!” The little bookboy’s hand that was holding breakfast shook a little. He immediately put his things aside and trotted his disapproving face towards Xue Ling. “Young master! Your body just got better, you need to rest well. Ah Xu has already gone to the capital. He will bring the General back to pick up the young master! “

Xue Ling shook his hand off his sleeve and sighed softly, “Xiao Qing, I’m not a young master anymore.”

The little bookboy was just blaming himself for his actions, and his face flushed at the words: “Even if the old man and his wife are gone, in the eyes of Xiao Qing, the young master is the young master! “ WFMDaI

Xue Ling finally knew why Xiao Qing ultimately died. Such a silly child should live in ease and comfort, and have his own life.

Xue Ling reached out and patted Xiao Qing on the head. For the sake of your loyalty to the original owner of this body, I’ll bring you along.

“I am no longer a young master who has nothing to do but read every day.” Xue Ling’s face was serious. When he slightly lowered his gaze, that type of weak and fragile look made others can’t help but want to hold the whole world in front of him to cheer him up. “Having been so sick, I understand that anything I wish to do, is better done by myself. Waiting here for the General; if the General did not come, wouldn’t I miss the Imperial examination?”

The little book boy was shocked silly by his words. He did not know how to refute it. AU1Vq0

It was reasonable for the young master to say so… There seemed to be nothing wrong with it.

“Xiao Qing, from now on, address me as gongzi.” Xue Ling opened the door, and the sun outside came in. This dull room seemed to have regained a new life. “I am no longer a young master who has been sheltered from the wind and rain. Everything in Duan family will be dealt with by me in the future.”

Duan Qian, the original body owner, was always modest and respectful. But Xue Ling was not a modest person; he was born with a showy character. Perhaps it was due to this attention drawing behaviour that he would be reduced to such a level, but obviously Xue Ling did not feel that it was wrong.

Xiao Qing was somewhat brainwashed by the words of their young master. He nodded his head and said, “Yes! Gongzi! I’ll go pack up! “ dMpfsA

Xue Ling gave Xiao Qing a deep look. In fact, Xue Ling’s character change could be seen at a glance by anyone that had really been associating together for a long time, but after all, he was a backstage cannon fodder. If the whole world revolved and changed around his abnormality, even larger changes would be taken for granted.

After asking Xiao Qing to take out the remaining silver, Xue Ling checked the bill. He had been sick, and had been drinking medicines that were originally brewed at home. He had not yet become sick to the level of needing to see a doctor again, so the trip to the capital will be different from the original Duan Qian’s penniless walk.

This body’s health was not good, and it was not suitable for riding, so Xue Ling crossed out any plans to ride a horse, and had the system calculate the time. If he purchased a good carriage and travelled day and night, they could still arrive in time for the exam.

As long as he entered the exam room, with this body’s level of education, Xue Ling believed that he would be able to do well, so it was better to spend the money where it would be most effective. t5YdgW

After packing up the baggage, he had Xiao Qing buy a good carriage and prepare some simple and cheap dry food. Xue Ling then embarked on the road to the capital.

When he was young, he spent time living in ancient times. He was a rare genius who could change his appearance to look human from a young age. When he was idle, he often went exploring the streets, and so he knew some things about the ancient living environment and felt no pressure adapting.

But the little bookboy was frightened all the way, fearing that such an uninterrupted day and night journey would fatigue his gongzi’s body.

Although his body did not break, when they arrived at the capital, Xue Ling really felt exhausted in body and spirit, and needed to recover. FD7R2G

Because the imperial examinations were approaching, there were many people travelling in and out of the capital. Xue Ling and Xiao Qing casually found an inn to live in. They had no intention of catching anyone’s eye before the imperial examinations.

Xiao Qing wondered why his gongzi didn’t go to the General’s Palace, but when they were sitting in the lobby waiting for Xue Ling to eat, they heard some gossip.

It was said that the General’s Palace recently welcomed a beautiful young man, elegant and polished. He wrote an astonishing saga, and had been awarded a grand secretary’s prize.

The pub and ordinary inns were absolutely good places to hear news. Xue Ling sat down and collected all the information he wanted to know while Xiao Qing’s face gradually turned black. Finally, when they closed the door to their room, he turned and said to Xue Ling, “Gongzi, why are you holding me back? The man they are talking about is Ah Xu! Did you read that poem just now? Didn’t you write it last year? You didn’t feel that it was well written, so you told Ah Xu to burn it! How can it be Ah Xu’s poem now?” rJeUji

Xue Ling was a little disapproving. He even used it as an example to Xiao Qing: “Xiao Qing, you see, if we hadn’t come to the capital and were still waiting for the General to bring us here, we probably wouldn’t know anything.”

Xiao Qing was so angry at his gongzi’s attitude that he almost laughed. He blushed, and finally only said, “Duan Xuyang that guy! What does he think he is! “

Duan Xuyang was one of the protagonists of this book, or to be precise, he was the shou of the novel. Although his name seemed a little ordinary, it was a good description of his sunny appearance, coupled with the novel’s description of him as a little cutie, readers still liked the name.

On the contrary, Xue Ling strongly disliked it. “Uh huh, he’s nothing. Don’t be angry, Xiao Qing.” wEKkif

Recently, his gongzi’s character had changed a lot, and he was no longer cold and distant all day or wearing an expression filled with grief. He was often smiling at him, and the little boy became bolder, daring to talk to Xue Ling. “Gongzi, let’s go to the General and expose this asshole Duan Xuyang! “

Xue Ling patted his head and said, “Let’s leave it for the time being.”

Xiao Qing could not hold back this anger. He looked at Xue Ling and his eyes were red. “Gongzi…”

Xue Ling pinched his little round face and said helplessly, “How do you want me to expose it? After all, we grew up together, and I see him as a brother. It’s not just him that’s affected when it’s time to go out and expose him.” m2z8jC

Xiao Qing’s mind was suddenly clear as he understandood Xue Ling’s meaning. “Then gongzi will go after the exam. I don’t believe that he would still be able to copy things from gongzi during the exams!”

Xue Ling laughed deeply, and the Xiao Qing that was just about to say that his gongzi was soft-hearted saw his smile and hesitated. The words that were about to come out were taken back.

It would be even more strange if he were to be considered soft hearted.
