Chapter 37: World Consciousness

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Su Muxue had no idea what was happening outside. Ever since she fell asleep, she had completely entered her dream.

In her dream, an old man with a long beard and white hair smiled at her. “How’s this ability?”

Subconsciously, Su Muxue knew that he was referring to her ability when she was in the herb garden, but she didn’t want to answer him now. “Who are you?”

“Hmm, who do I look like?”

The old man stood up and walked around. Not only was his beard and hair white, but even his clothes were white. He looked like an old immortal that Su Muxue had seen on TV.

However, Su Muxue didn’t answer according to his liking. “Like… like a fraud!”

“Aiyo, you little lass!”

The old man probably wanted to hit her, but the expected pain didn’t come. When Su Muxue opened her eyes, she saw him retracting his hand with a tangled face.

The old man sighed. “So be it. As you can see, I’m in charge of this area. I should have come when you first arrived, but there was a small accident and it was delayed.”

Su Muxue tilted her head and looked at him. “When I just got here… When was that?”

“Two weeks ago!” The old man didn’t waste time with Su Muxue. Then, he put on a serious expression and said, “Before you came, I found a loophole in the world consciousness of this place. When I went to fix it, I found that someone had already crawled in.”

Su Muxue was thinking about something and the old man said straightforwardly, “It’s exactly what you think! Tan Xinhan has a consciousness that doesn’t belong to this world in her mind right now! We have to chase it away!”

Su Muxue was confused. “Why us?”

“Because you originally belonged to this world. However, due to a small accident, you went out,” the old man explained agitatedly.

Su Muxue understood. “So accidents happen often to the world consciousness here?”

“Aiya, that’s not important!” The old man was so angry that his beard was almost flying. Why did she always pay attention to these strange points? “You just need to know that if you help me chase that thing away, I can guarantee you glory and wealth! That was just a small reward just now.”

Su Muxue didn’t care. “I still need you to assure my glory and wealth?”

The old man: “Then what do you want?”

“I haven’t thought about it yet. I’ll think about it later.”

The old man was horrified. “You’re not going to tell me not to marry anyone, are you?”

Su Muxue looked interested. “You can get a wife?”

“Eh? I don’t think so!”

Before Su Muxue woke up from her dream, she only had one thought left. Why did this old immortal look so stupid?

She had just woken up when Chang Yuan, who was beside the bed, saw her. She quickly asked, “How do you feel? Come and have some water.”

Su Muxue took a sip from her hand and saw the pot of herbs given to her by Old Master Tan.

“Where am I?”

“You’re still at the Tan family residence. Old Master Tan said that you’ll wake up after sleeping for a while. Everyone is waiting for you to eat. Quickly get up.”

Although Chang Yuan said that, she did not really believe Tan Xu when he said that. That was why she chose to stay here.

Downstairs, Su Muxue looked at Yan Zhao in surprise. Why was he here?

However, why did Tan Xinshu disappear?

She wanted to see her consciousness!

“Little Xue?” Chang Yuan waved her hand in front of her. “Why are you in a daze?”

Su Muxue smiled. “I’m fine. I’m just wondering why Cousin Xinshu and that couple disappeared.”

Chang Yuan said, “Your cousin Xinshu angered Old Master Tan, so he sent her back. Tan Lang and his wife had something to do at home, so they left.”

“That’s right. Young lady, come sit with me. You’re about the same age as Xinshu and Xinhan this year, so you can follow them and call me grandpa from now on. Old Master Tan makes me sound so old.”

Su Muxue didn’t know what to do, doesn’t grandpa sound old too?

Besides, she already has a grandfather, right?

Su Muxue looked at Su Yuanwei and saw that although his movements did not change, his eyes were slightly still. He was obviously waiting for her answer..
