Chapter 45: End of the West Private High School + Beginning of The Struggle of Faith


Su Hanxia was getting a headache from Fu Wenyang’s crying. The moment she saw Mu Miao, she immediately said to him, “Hurry up and send him off to reincarnate.”

Fu Wenyang choked, “Class rep…”

“This life is over,” Su Hanxia waved her hand, revealing that familiar world-weary expression Mu Miao recognized. “Hurry up and go. Don’t stand here crying over me. Someone who doesn’t know might think I died, and you’ve come to mourn me.”

Fu Wenyang understood Su Hanxia’s temperament—someone who silently carried burdens but appeared indifferent to everyone on the surface. He didn’t hold it against her.

Mu Miao glanced at the inconsolable Fu Wenyang and said to Su Hanxia, “Why don’t the two of you reincarnate together?”

“Who’s reincarnating?” Su Hanxia raised an eyebrow. “He can go; I’m not going.”

This left Mu Miao stunned. The hand playing with Xi Junchi’s slender fingers froze as he hurriedly said, “If you don’t reincarnate, what are you going to do? Mixing with the System... there’s no future in that.”

Under Su Hanxia’s sharp gaze, Mu Miao’s voice grew softer and softer. It wasn’t that he wanted to fear her, but she was holding a knife, after all.

Mu Miao had seen Su Hanxia in the fishing village, slicing through people as easily as cutting vegetables. That knife had once rested on his neck, leaving him deeply traumatized. He was terrified she might turn her gaze on him again, knife in hand.

Mu Miao wrapped his arms around Xi Junchi’s arm, hiding behind him completely. The tall figure of Xi Junchi gave him enough of a sense of security.

“I said, I’m not going.”

Su Hanxia’s tone was concise, her face already showing a hint of impatience. She swept an icy glance at Mu Miao. “What’s the matter? If I don’t reincarnate, are you going to force me?”

Mu Miao shook his head like a rattle. Xi Junchi brushed a strand of his hair behind his ear and glanced at Su Hanxia. “Don’t scare him. He’s timid.”

“Fine, I won’t scare him.” Su Hanxia gave a meaningful smile. “Little white flower, as long as you don’t shoot arrows at us, I won’t be mean to you. Be good.”

Mu Miao: “...”

Alright, so she was the type to hold grudges too.

Since Su Hanxia adamantly refused to reincarnate, Mu Miao had no choice but to send Fu Wenyang first. Fu Wenyang reluctantly looked at Su Hanxia, his eyes brimming with tears.

Su Hanxia sheathed her knife and gave him a light hug. “Alright, don’t foolishly let others bully you in the next life. Remember to fight back. Worst case, drag them down with you.”

Fu Wenyang, tears in his eyes, nodded and forced a smile. “Alright, goodbye.”

“Goodbye.”

Fu Wenyang’s body dissolved into specks of red light and vanished. At the last moment, his red dress transformed back into pure white, and he placed a hand on his chest, performing a gentleman’s salute.

After sending off Fu Wenyang, Mu Miao turned to Su Hanxia and took out a crystal-clear, icy blue necklace. “This is from Jingnan for you. It will let you walk freely through different worlds without being bound by the System.”

Before leaving, Yin Jingnan had handed the necklace to Mu Miao, her fingers twisting a lock of hair as if she had foreseen this moment.

“That player called Su Hanxia probably won’t want to reincarnate. If you ask me, starting anew isn’t that great anyway. Let her be. Qu Linxi can handle the follow-up. After all, 001 is with you. Worst case, use 001 to threaten him.”
