I Might Be A Fake Cultivator

Chapter 217: Becoming Lackeys

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

An Lin and Liu Qianhuan were currently hiding behind a rock slab, and they had carved out a spell formation in order to hide their aura.

Upon seeing the little girl’s look of misery as she stared at the burnt boar, a glimmer appeared in their eyes.

“She looks like a glutton,” An Lin whispered. “How about we target this?”

Liu Qianhuan blinked at this suggestion. “But we neither have the ingredients nor have the culinary skills. How are we going to target it?”

“Uh… This is indeed a problem,” An Lin conceded.

After deciding that this approach was implausible, the two of them didn’t become disheartened. Rather, they continued to observe the little girl’s actions.

The little girl didn’t give up on the roast boar. Instead, she tore out the burnt bits and continued to munch down on the boar. As she ate, she mumbled non-stop, saying things like “pity the crispy and delicious boar skin”.

“Ah… Why are people so wicked and sinister. This Queen is so lonely…”

Out of nowhere, the little girl started lamenting. She had a melancholy expression on her face as she looked toward the sky.

An Lin: “…”

Liu Qianhuan: “…”

For some reason, it felt very strange to hear the little girl say this kind of thing.

“Also, where did that pink-haired girl run off to? The toy that she had looked fairly interesting. Ah… It’s a pity that she was trying to dupe This Queen though. If it wasn’t for my emotion detecting ability, I really might have been tricked by her…” The little girl once again sighed in a manner far beyond her age.

Liu Qianhuan and An Lin both fell silent. They caught a key phrase.

Emotion detecting ability?

Liu Qianhuan’s ruby lips moved as she whispered. “Which is to say… This little girl is still interested in mobile phones?”

An Lin nodded. “It’s most likely true that she’s interested in mobile phones. However, her emotion detecting ability can perhaps detect the emotions and feelings of others. It was because she detected our lies and malicious intent that we ended up being tricked by her instead.”

Liu Qianhuan frowned. “But we’re definitely going to have the negative emotions of malice and deceit. We’re trying to steal the golden holy grail after all. As such, we’ll definitely be greeted by her fist no matter how we appear in front of her and try to negotiate.”

As long as their aim was to steal the holy grail—which was to say the crown on the little girl’s head—their malicious intent would definitely be detected by her…

An Lin pondered over this for a moment. Then, as if he had thought of something brilliant, his face suddenly lit up in excitement. “What if… What if our aim isn’t to steal the holy grail?”

“Isn’t to steal the holy grail? You mean deceive ourselves in order to hide our true emotions? We’ll probably also be caught if we try this,” Liu Qianhuan replied disapprovingly.

An Lin shook his head. “That’s not what I meant. What I meant was… We give up on trying to obtain the holy grail! We’ll attain victory in another manner!”

“Give up on trying to obtain the holy grail? Attain victory in another manner?” Liu Qianhuan mumbled to herself as she pondered over An Lin’s words. Then, her eyes suddenly lit up in realization. “What you’re saying is, we’ll give up on this holy grail, but at the same time, we’ll also prevent the others from trying to obtain this holy grail?!”

“Exactly!” An Lin smiled. “Our ultimate goal is to win this competition. Right now, our total score is the highest out of the four powers. So, once we eliminate all the other competitors, victory will be ours. This doesn’t go against our original intention!”

“We’ll appear before her with the mindset of trying to help her eliminate all the enemies,” An Lin continued. “That way, we’ll be useful to her and appear well-intentioned. Regardless of whether she has emotion detecting abilities or powers to differentiate between good and evil, we won’t be scared either way. Because our aim is to help her, and this is our firmest conviction…”

“That’s brilliant!”

Liu Qianhuan’s eyes glimmered with excitement, and she looked at An Lin in admiration. It was as if she was getting to know him anew.

An Lin smiled faintly and said, “Then our problem now is this. Do we immediately go to offer our assistance now, or do we wait until a battle has erupted before going to help her?”

“Being as strong as she is, that little girl mightn’t even need our help. If we act rashly, we might leave a bad impression instead. We only need to observe quietly and help her when she’s in more of a desperate situation.” Liu Qianhuan chose the relatively more conservative approach.

An Lin nodded and didn’t say anything.

Meanwhile, there was still another figure not far behind them.

That was right, the Hall of Creation’s Dong Yan was hiding just behind them!

Dong Yan was also a silent observer. However, she had the advantage of being able to act first.

“Heh… Although I don’t know what you two are whispering about, I feel that I should help you guys out a little…”

A mysterious smile appeared on Dong Yan’s face. There weren’t many immortal spells that could be cast covertly, but she just so happened to know one such immortal spell.

Ice Fission!

A cold chill started to slowly spread from within the rock slab that An Lin and Liu Qianhuan were hiding behind. Like a violently erupting volcano, this cold chill eventually burst outwards with a loud rumble.

Boom!

The rock slab suddenly exploded, sending shards of crushed rock flying everywhere.

“Who’s there?!” The little girl instantly locked her eyes onto the two figures behind the rain of rock shards.

“Your Majesty, it’s us~!” A smile surfaced on An Lin’s face as he walked out with his hands up.

Fuck! We’ve been screwed over…!

However, now was not the time to look for the culprit. If he acted rashly, what awaited him was that deadly fist…

“Hey, Queen…” Liu Qianhuan also had a cheery smile on her face as she walked out calmly.

The little girl smiled. She looked them up and down with a curious expression on her face. “What a surprise. You two still have the gall to appear before me~”

An Lin winced. He really wanted to say that they didn’t actually have the gall to do so.

At this moment, Liu Qianhuan had already opened her mouth to speak, “We came here because we want to help Your Majesty…”

The little girl was slightly taken aback. “Help me?”

An Lin nodded and said sincerely, “That’s right. We’ve come to help you exterminate all the enemies who have their eyes on your crown!”

The little girl’s expression changed slightly. She tilted her head and studied An Lin pensively with her clear and vivid eyes.

“Why?” she asked curiously. “I eliminated one of your teammates.”

“Because we’re participating in a competition right now,” Liu Qianhuan answered honestly. “If we help you protect the crown on your head, then we’ll be able to achieve victory!”

An Lin nodded in agreement. Both of them looked very frank and sincere.

Because these were the true thoughts in their minds.

A look of slight surprise flittered across the little girl’s face. She gazed at the two people in front of her and didn’t reply straight away.

After a short moment of silence, the childish feel disappeared from her pretty and delicate face, and she smiled widely. This was an especially adorable smile.

“So these are your true thoughts~,” she said in a crisp voice. “Very well…”

As if their minds were in sync, An Lin and Liu Qianhuan both bowed together. “Your Majesty, please allow us the chance to serve you!”

“Very well! From now on, you two are my guardians!” The little girl nodded in satisfaction.

Just like that, An Lin and Liu Qianhuan became this little girl’s guardians…

The hiding Dong Yan was stupefied. She watched on dazedly as this unfolded, and she felt that the entire world had descended into absurdity.

Guardians? Holy f*ck! Weren’t you guys supposed to start fighting? How come you’ve suddenly become lackeys to the golden holy grail? What the f*ck is with this progression?!

Dong Yan felt that her world had been flipped upside down. “It’s a lie,” she stammered. “It’s all a lie…”

…

Blue Sky Plaza.

Watching these scenes unfold on the crystal screen, the feeble Wang Xuanzhan grimaced. He felt his blood churning, and he vomited another mouthful of blood.

Sh*t dude! I was beaten half dead by this little girl just a moment ago, and now you guys actually became her lackeys? This… This is so tormenting!
