Chapter 47: Trouble is Coming

Xie Yaoyao had always been unable to figure out the time circulation between the Fairytale World and the real world.

It seems that the time ratio is one to one, but the time of each entry is different.

And Xie Yaoyao found that the time he could stay in the Fairytale World seemed to have become longer, I guess these are related to his tier.

A day passed, and the mist door in his mind still didn't open.

Xie Yaoyao admitted that he missed the adventure experience in the Fairytale World.

It seems that that world is a real world, where you can find the passion of living!

And here, it's just a temporary rest inn!

The sunset passed through the transparent glass door, putting a layer of golden coat on the little guys running around in the shop. Helai'er was playing hide-and-seek with the fool Tantan, and Xie Yaoyao was chatting with Lilisi in boredom.

Time was a bit lazy here.

"Xie Yaoyao, great, you didn't enter the Dark World! Something happened, do you know?"

A hurried female voice broke the quiet and peaceful time, Nie Yingying walked into the shop with an anxious face.

"Hi! Good afternoon! Didn't expect to see you so soon, I thought..."

Since it wasn't a customer, Xie Yaoyao, who was lying on the recliner, was too lazy to get up and greet her.

Where did Nie Yingying know, she walked to Xie Yaoyao's side, grabbed his hands and pulled him up.

"Uh! I know that although I am handsome and saved you, making you like me is also my responsibility, but it's not dark yet, how about waiting until night?"

"Ptooey!"

This man was clearly not so glib when they first met, Nie Yingying let go of her hand and rolled her eyes at Xie Yaoyao.

"Sit down, I'm talking to you about business."

Xie Yaoyao sighed and poured a cup of tea for Nie Yingying on the side table.

"Okay, take your time!"

Nie Yingying took the tea and took a sip, and then her brows stretched slightly.

"Yan Zhong and the others were caught, it was the Illuminati who did it, I heard that Vermilion Bird took action personally! We have big trouble!"

Xie Yaoyao had long seen some Traveler organizations at home and abroad from the 'Dark Fairytale' website. The Illuminati was the second largest organization in China after the Dragon Spear, and its sphere of influence covered the whole country.

The leader Chang Ting was an old-school Tier 7 master in China, with the Thunder Giant bloodline, often comparing himself to Cao Cao on various occasions, and was a guy with great ambition.

The Illuminati headquarters was in Beijing, managed by Chang Ting himself. Under the headquarters, there were four hall masters who managed the stations all over the country. These four branch halls were called Azure Dragon Hall, White Tiger Hall, Vermilion Bird Hall, and Black Tortoise Hall according to the east, south, west, and north.

Although the names were very secondary, the cohesion of the Illuminati members was still quite high.

"You mean the guys from the Blood Sword Mercenary Group who fought with you were caught by the Illuminati? Isn't this a good thing? No one is looking for trouble with you anymore, right?"

"No, it's not! The Illuminati represents bigger trouble!"

"You mean..." 【4

"That's right, the invitation to the Little Garden was a mission entrusted to Blood Sword by Vermilion Bird. I heard the deposit alone was three hundred gold coins. Now that Yan Zhong and the others have been captured, they will definitely reveal that the invitation is in our hands."

"That's strange, can't the Illuminati get this invitation themselves? That Vermilion Bird is so badass, and a Sixth-tier expert at that."

"Because this invitation is for an advanced mission, and Travelers above the Third-tier cannot accept it. Blood Sword is indeed a very formidable team, especially since none of their members, except for Yan Zhong, are above the Third-tier."

Xie Yaoyao finished the tea in his cup in one gulp and said with a smile.

"So that's it. I didn't expect those guys to be quite that capable. But what are you worried about? They can't find you anyway."

Seeing that Xie Yaoyao still didn't grasp the severity of the situation, Nie Yingying was incredibly annoyed.

"Just because Blood Sword can't find me doesn't mean the Illuminati can't. After all, Blood Sword is just a low-tier mercenary group, and the third-in-command was the first one I took out, but the Illuminati is different."

"Is that dead guy very powerful?"

Nie Yingying's words piqued Xie Yaoyao's interest; he hadn't expected that unlucky guy he'd hit and killed was actually a character of note.

"It's not that he was powerful, but that he was important. That third-in-command of Blood Sword was their team's mage, which is why I risked getting injured to take him out the first time."

"I see. Spellcasters are more precious than ordinary professionals; I understand that now."

Xie Yaoyao nodded, feeling that what she said made sense.

"And then?"

Nie Yingying was about to be driven mad by him.

"My Assassin entry makes me almost immune to ordinary tracking methods, so the people from Blood Sword have never been able to find me. But the Illuminati will definitely have magic-based tracking methods, such as astrology, divination, or prophecy."

Xie Yaoyao's expression turned ugly in an instant.

"Are you saying the Illuminati will find you soon? Then why did you come to find me? Big sister, is this how you usually repay someone for saving your life?"

Nie Yingying's face flushed slightly, and her tone rose a little.

"If the enemy uses methods like divination, they will definitely find you too, which is why I came to warn you. I'm being kind!"

"Damn it! I thank you for your kindness! This shop is my entire livelihood!"

Looking at the little guys running around, unaware that disaster was imminent, Xie Yaoyao was on the verge of tears.

Although his strength had greatly increased, he didn't think he could stand against a large, nationwide Traveler organization.

"I'm sorry!" Nie Yingying felt truly guilty; Xie Yaoyao had only encountered this situation because he had saved her.

"What's the use of saying sorry? At this point, we can only run!" Xie Yaoyao didn't even know where to start; he truly had no experience in running away. "Sigh! Is there no other way?"

Seeing Xie Yaoyao's helpless appearance, Nie Yingying felt increasingly guilty and uneasy.

"It's not that there's absolutely no way. If we could find a Traveler who possesses entries like divination, fortune-telling, or rituals to help us, they could interfere with the other side so they can't predict our movements. But..."

Before Nie Yingying could finish her sentence, she saw Xie Yaoyao staring straight at her with both eyes.

"But what?"

"But Travelers like that are usually very rich and not very strong in combat, so they definitely wouldn't dare to offend the Illuminati!"

Nie Yingying had expected Xie Yaoyao to be even more dejected upon hearing this reason, as gaining hope only to lose it is harder to accept, but she didn't expect him to suddenly burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, great! There's still hope! There's still hope! Lilisi! Lilisi! Help me!"

Under Nie Yingying's puzzled gaze, a crow suddenly flew in from outside the door.

"Eh? Isn't this crow the one on the utility pole at the entrance? So it's yours?"

Xie Yaoyao ignored Nie Yingying's question entirely, extended his arm to catch Lilisi, and said.

"Lilisi, can you interfere with others' divination of our location, or simply mislead others into divining false information about us?"
