AZI: The History Shattering Burial of a Selfish Lunatic Vol 5 to 6

AZI Volume 6 Chapter 56

"..."

Away from the others, and standing at the edge of the cave's cover, Xun Yu takes off her white oni mask—revealing an elegant face with pale blue eyes.

"Finally..."

Looking down at her right hand, which is still trembling, Xun Yu draws in a deep breath of air.

Ever since she entered this ruin, and had seen all these statues of Lord Tian She Zi, Xun Yu has been resisting the urge to worship them.

And now that she has finally given into that urge, she feels as if a heavy load had just been taken off her shoulders.

Different from the other Moon Guards, Xun Yu doesn't feel a hint of loyalty towards Nian Tao Tao, or the Long Yue family.

As for her peers, to Xun Yu—they may as well be nothing more than strangers, people that she just so happens to be living under the same roof with.

Amidst Xun Yu's feelings of liberation—

"Xun Yu, what are you doing?"

"..."

Quietly putting her mask back on, and without turning around, Xun Yu replies—

"What do you want, pipsqueak?"

"...Tch."

Despite being Qing Yue's second-in-command, Xun Yu has never once addressed the former as her commander, and has always addressed them as "pipsqueak."

The only reason Xun Yu had been allowed to get away with it was because she was a competent fighter. In fact, many in the Long Yue family consider her to be too competent.

"Need I remind you that you're a Long Yue family Moon Guard?"

Normally, Xun Yu wouldn't feel anything when reminded of this, but now, she finds the statement loathsome, causing her to reply—

"So what? Does that prevent me from worshipping a deity?"

"..."

Towards Xun Yu's uncaring attitude, Qing Yue twitches an eye, and begrudgingly remarks—

"If I can, I'd really want to give you a thorough beating right now."

"I find it laughable to hear that from a pipsqueak."

Clicking her tongue once more, Qing Yue heads back into the cave.

And as Qing Yue leaves, a random thought appears on Xun Yu's mind—

(I want to eat four meat buns.)

It isn't clear as to why, but Xun Yu feels a very specific urge to eat meat buns, and it was four to be even more specific.

.........

"Ai, Lin-xiong, let's take a break."

"Fine."

Taking things easy, neither Qing Ming Yang nor Lin Yu Heng are in any rush to reunite with their scattered clansmen.

Seating themselves beneath the cover of a large tree, Qing Ming Yang says—

"Once this is all over, you think...-?"

"Don't."

Knowing what Qing Ming Yang is about to ask, Lin Yu Heng cuts him off, and changing the topic quickly, he says—

"...I'm more concerned about the necropolis' opening right now."

"Still a couple of months away, I don't see the need to be that concerned with it. Actually... Let's talk about what story we want to use—when we do meet some clansmen."
