I'm Not the Young Lady's Dream Girl - [Vol. 1] Chapter 39

[Vol. 1] Chapter 39: Meeting Miss Black Cat Again

 

Yinyue jumped down from the giant lizard and looked at the astonished Wang Shaojun.

Without intending to explain, Yinyue walked toward the center of the ruin, sword in hand.

 

“Brother Yue, wait for us!” Wang Shaojun hesitated for a moment, then followed.

 

Yinyue stopped and pointed his sword at Wang Shaojun and Xia Qi’er.

 

“The next part of the journey will be very dangerous. If you know what’s good for you, go back to the outskirts of the city. At least it’s relatively safe there for now.”

 

Wang Shaojun took a step forward. “I won’t. Besides, it’s precisely because it’s dangerous that I should stick by your side. After all, you’re so strong now. You sneaky guy, aren’t you power-leveling behind our backs?”

 

“Let’s get this straight: if you die later, don’t blame me.” Yinyue lowered his sword.

 

“Don’t worry, I, Wang Shaojun, have a strong life force.” Wang Shaojun puffed out his chest, oozing confidence.

 

Yinyue and the others continued to explore the city. Along the way, they encountered many students from the academy. Yinyue asked them about his young lady and mother’s whereabouts, but no one could answer.

 

“Brother Yue, you and Classmate Yuluo seem to be really close. When are you going to marry her and treat us to a wedding feast?”

 

Yinyue stepped on Wang Shaojun’s foot, causing him to cry out in pain. Let himself marry his young lady? He’d be lucky not to be captured by the young lady.

 

“Hey, isn’t that Yinyue over there? What brings you here?” a voice sounded nearby.

 

Yinyue turned to see Ao Lan. He wasn’t surprised that Ao Lan was here, this was the central location, and anyone looking for treasure and opportunities would be here.

 

“Why would a loser like you come looking for me?”

 

“I only lost because of a momentary lapse!” Ao Lan’s fists clenched.

 

If it weren’t for Yinyue’s tricks, would he have embarrassed himself in front of so many students?

 

“So what do you want from me?”

Yinyue’s tone was a bit impatient, he didn’t have time to deal with Ao Lan now.

 

“Don’t be in such a hurry, Miss Yuluo. Weren’t you inquiring about Miss Yuluo’s whereabouts? I know where she is!” Ao Lan adjusted his glasses and smiled at Yinyue.

 

“Why should I trust you?” Yinyue didn’t trust Ao Lan at all.

 

At this moment, Ao Lan pulled out a handkerchief from behind and waved it in front of Yinyue.

 

It was… the young lady’s handkerchief!

 

“Then lead the way quickly.”

 

Although it felt like a trap, it was the only lead they had.

 

“I told you not to rush. I can’t pinpoint the exact location, but I can take you there.”

 

“Then lead the way.”

 

Ao Lan was delighted to hear this. ‘Did he really manage to lure him in? He’s truly a guy whose mind is clouded by a woman’s charm. But it also saved me some effort. Yinyue, I’ll make you pay a hundred times over for the humiliation you gave me.’

 

Guided by Ao Lan, Yinyue and the others arrived at the entrance of a cave.

 

“Wow, I didn’t expect such a huge cave here!” Wang Shaojun looked around curiously.

 

“Such a big cave shouldn’t have any danger, right? Wang Shaojun, use your ability to sense any danger.”

 

Xia Qi’er wanted Wang Shaojun to use his ability to predict any danger. Although Wang Shaojun’s ability wasn’t very useful on normal days, in this perilous ruin, his ability could be a lifesaver, helping them avoid many dangers.

 

“Um… for some reason, I can’t seem to use my ability right now.”

 

Wang Shaojun felt embarrassed. His ability, which rarely came in handy, was finally useful, but he dropped the ball at a critical moment.

 

“Don’t worry, there’s no danger inside. I guarantee it with my own integrity,” Ao Lan reassured them, patting his chest.

 

As they ventured deeper into the cave, there were no traces of human presence. Just then, a giant wolf appeared in Yinyue’s view. It was Ao Lan’s summoned beast, and there was something else following closely behind it.

 

Wang Shaojun rubbed his eyes and took a closer look. It seemed to be… an A-level supernatural beast.

 

“Darn it, we’ve been fooled,” Wang Shaojun couldn’t believe how worthless Ao Lan’s integrity turned out to be.

 

Just as Wang Shaojun was about to confront him, Ao Lan had vanished without a trace.

 

“Goodbye, everyone!” Ao Lan was now seated on a giant eagle, flying towards the exit, leaving Yinyue and the others behind in the cave.

 

“What do we do? We’re doomed!” Wang Shaojun panicked as he watched the formidable A-level supernatural beast charging towards them.

 

“You two, get out of here. I’ll deal with it,” Yinyue summoned his light sword, preparing to battle the creature.

 

“No, I may not share the same birthday with you, but I pray we share the same year, month, and day…”

 

Yinyue knocked Wang Shaojun unconscious. ‘This guy was really full of drama. You two staying here will only hinder me.’

 

“Qi’er, take him out,” Yinyue tossed Wang Shaojun to Xia Qi’er.

 

“But…” Xia Qier hesitated.

 

“No buts, just go!” Yinyue shouted loudly.

 

“I got it. Next year on this day, we’ll light incense for you,” Xia Qi’er carried Wang Shaojun on her back and ran out.

 

‘Can you not say such ominous things!’ Yinyue inwardly grumbled.

 

After seeing them leave, Yinyue elevated his own strength to A-level. The young man disappeared into the cave, replaced by a stunning silver-haired girl.

 

Taking a deep breath, Yinyue’s sword gleamed, already by the neck of the supernatural beast.

 

Instinctively, the beast dodged the fatal blow, but its neck was still cut by Yinyue.

 

The beast roared. This was the first time it had been injured in such a way. Cautiously, it stared at Yinyue, realizing that its adversary had the ability to kill it, and it had to tread carefully.

 

Yinyue swung out a sword energy. The mutant beast dodged the attack with its excellent physical ability. However, the attack just now was just a feint from Yinyue.

 

The real attack came next. Yinyue predicted the movement of the supernatural beast and by the time it landed, Yinyue had already struck.

 

The light sword pierced the chest of the supernatural beast. The beast widened its eyes, spewing flames from its mouth, attempting to incinerate Yinyue. With a leap, Yinyue successfully dodged the flames, and the supernatural beast immediately distanced itself from Yinyue.

 

It seemed impossible to approach it for now, but it didn’t matter. Yinyue had already achieved her goal.

 

It was the perfect time to try out the new technique he had been studying. Yinyue snapped her fingers, and the light sword inserted in the supernatural beast emitted a dazzling light. With a loud explosion, the chest of the supernatural beast burst open.

 

Even with its thick skin, the supernatural beast couldn’t withstand the damage so close to its vital organs. The beast collapsed to the ground, with only a last breath left.

 

Yinyue summoned her bow and arrow, preparing to deliver the final blow. But at that moment, the supernatural beast opened its eyes again, and its body began to swell.

 

This creature intended to self-destruct! Yinyue tried to retreat, but it was too late.

 

The explosion engulfed the entire cave, causing even the entrance to collapse.

 

Outside the cave, Xia Qi’er watched the collapsed entrance, thinking of Yinyue…

 

In the deeper parts of the underground cave, Yinyue brushed off the dust from her body. She had been careless and hadn’t dodged in time. She couldn’t believe she fell for such a simple trap. Luckily, she had prepared her defenses in advance. Otherwise, he might have perished there.

 

Yinyue didn’t expect the underground cave to be so extensive. She began to explore the cave. Fortunately, there were some sparkling crystals in the cave, although the cave is still somewhat dark. But with Yinyue’s unique vision, she could still see clearly.

 

While exploring, Yinyue noticed a faint light ahead. She approached to take a look.

 

Was that a luminous butterfly?

The ruins were indeed magical places, even housing such creatures. The butterfly seemed to sense Yinyue’s presence. It fluttered its wings around her before finally landing on her hand.

 

Yinyue felt the ?Daytime? was restless again. The butterfly once again fluttered its wings and flew in front of Yinyue.

 

“Was it trying to lead me somewhere?”

 

Yinyue followed the butterfly deeper into the cave. Under the butterfly’s guidance, Yinyue entered a passageway. She crawled along the passage but found it to be a dead end.

 

Yinyue was puzzled. Why did it bring her to this dead end? The butterfly flew to a crack in the wall, and Yinyue noticed light above.

 

Quickly summoning her light sword, Yinyue shattered the rocks above and climbed out of the cave. Looking around at the surroundings, it seemed to be a palace.

 

At that moment, footsteps approached nearby. Yinyue quickly went invisible, and she saw several people wearing black cloaks passing by. They seemed very anxious, not even noticing the suddenly appearing hole.

 

Once they had gone a certain distance, Yinyue released her invisibility. Without moonlight, she couldn’t remain invisible.

 

Maintaining a safe distance to avoid being detected, Yinyue cautiously trailed behind them.

 

When she reached a strange room while tracking them, Yinyue stopped because there were people from the Séance Society guarding it. She couldn’t enter for the time being.

 

Suddenly, Yinyue felt someone behind her!

 

At that moment, Yinyue suddenly felt someone behind her! She was about to summon her light sword, but the other person pressed her against the wall. After gaining control over Yinyue, the person’s hands began to wander over her body.

 

Yinyue suddenly felt extremely humiliated. Apart from her young lady, no one had dared to treat her like this before.

 

Just as Yinyue was about to summon Dawn to help her, the person behind her spoke.

 

“Miss Yinyue, have you missed me?” After touching Yinyue’s delicate skin, the person let her go.

 

Turning around, Yinyue saw that it was Miss Black Cat. She had also come here. But that wasn’t the main point. Yinyue summoned her light sword and aimed it at Miss Black Cat.

 

“You’ve gone too far this time! How dare you lay hands on me!”

 

“Shh, keep your voice down. You don’t want to be discovered, do you?”

 

Yinyue lowered her sword and fell silent. If she were to be discovered, it would be troublesome. She didn’t want to be spotted by enemies before even entering. Otherwise, sneaking in again would become even more difficult.

 

Although Yinyue felt aggrieved, she remained silent.

 

“Don’t be angry. How about I compensate you with something?” Miss Black Cat whispered to Yinyue.

 

“Hmph.” Yinyue expressed her disdain for Miss Black Cat’s apology.

 

Miss Black Cat took out a white cat mask from behind, very similar to the mask she wore. It was a perfect match for couples.

 

“You’re not sincere enough.” Yinyue whispered.

 

Relying solely on a mask to bribe me, how is that possible?

 

“This mask has some unique functions.” Miss Black Cat began to demonstrate the mask’s capabilities.

 

In the next moment, the Black Cat who wore the mask turned into Yinyue’s appearance, piquing Yinyue’s interest.

 

“Not only appearance but even the voice can change!” Miss Black Cat spoke with Yinyue’s voice.

 

Yinyue felt a bit strange seeing someone with her appearance and voice in front of her.

 

The mask was quite impressive. Reluctantly, Yinyue accepted it.

 

Putting on the mask, she found it surprisingly fitting, as if it were custom-made especially for her.

 

“It looks good on you. We look like a couple,” Miss Black Cat remarked.

 

“We’re not a couple. Don’t talk nonsense.” Yinyue found Miss Black Cat’s way of thinking really strange.

 

Miss Black Cat stopped joking and handed two sets of documents to Yinyue. Yinyue took one of them. It was the profile of a Séance Society member. Yinyue instantly understood Miss Black Cat’s intention.

 

A moment later, two more “members of the church” walked through the door. At this time, the guards did not yet know that they had let in people they should not have.
