Apocalyptic Wasteland Simulator

Chapter 113 - 108 Encounter! Captain Pig Head Simulates Logout
Chen Pingchuan slowly turned his head, his gaze falling upon the speaker.She was an incredibly beautiful woman, with a face that could topple cities. A fiery red silk dress danced in the wind like a burning flame, setting off her delicate, snow-like skin and making her even more captivating. The woman’s gaze was deep, full of temptation yet gentle, like glistening autumn waves capable of ensnaring one’s very soul.

As a gentle breeze swept by, her long hair fluttered. Dressed in red, Ji Hongxiu stood about ten meters from Chen Pingchuan, her eyes fixed unwaveringly on him. The expression on her face was complex—a mixture of reminiscence, anticipation, surprise, and a touch of shyness.

Of course, all of it vanished the moment Chen Pingchuan furrowed his brow.

His brows knitted tightly as he scrutinized the woman’s features, searching his memory. He was certain he had never met this person before. Yet her familiar posture and the way she mentioned his identity from the simulation sparked an unsettling suspicion. The major upheaval in the simulator, coupled with his experiences after waking, seemed to confirm his earlier theory. The people—or rather, the women—with whom he’d had intimate contact in the simulation must have received the simulator’s memories, just as he had. Although the conjecture was baseless, he felt certain of it. Besides, Grand Elder Ye Hu, the one he had ”trained” in the simulation, loved to wear red. That, combined with this woman’s noble aura, perfectly fit his theory.

Just as Chen Pingchuan was contemplating how to test the woman, Captain Pig Head, who was standing behind him, disregarded Belia’s threats and suddenly cried out.

”Lord Bishop, I’m here! I strictly followed your orders and upheld the law in the camp, and now look at me! I beg you, you must save me!”

There was a wail in Captain Pig Head’s voice as he lamented his tragic fate. He didn’t dare mention Belia, only hinting at the injustice he had suffered.

However, to his surprise, the little devil Belia defied convention.

”Noisy!” Belia frowned. The sudden appearance of the woman opposite her exerted an immense pressure, an instinctive reaction that only arose when facing an opponent of the same level. That didn’t necessarily mean she was weaker, though. Without a fight, who could say for sure who the victor would be?

At that moment, Captain Pig Head’s outburst gave Belia the perfect excuse to erupt. And so, the captain, who had been so ruthless to himself, met the end of his miserable life.

CRACK! Captain Pig Head was dead.

At the crisp sound, Chen Pingchuan’s expression turned grim. If the woman opposite was indeed Grand Elder Ye Hu, Ji Hongxiu, who had been transferred to Kailing Province, then Belia’s actions were undoubtedly a provocation.

Sure enough, upon Captain Pig Head’s death, Ji Hongxiu’s anger erupted. She first shouted at Chen Pingchuan.

”Oh, you heartless man! I’m out here managing the household for you, and what do I get? No appreciation at all! Instead, you bring home a mistress—no, wait, is she number four, five, or maybe seven or eight? It doesn’t matter which! You actually brought another wild woman here to wreck your own place!”

Ji Hongxiu shot Chen Pingchuan a fierce glare, yet her eyes were so seductive that she seemed like a wronged wife being bullied by a concubine. After venting her jealousy, she slowly turned her gaze back to Belia.

She raised her chin slightly, a sharp glint in her eyes. ”You little brat. You’ve only been by Master’s side for a few days, and you’ve already become this obnoxious. I wonder what a terror you’d be if you stayed any longer.

”Today, Big Sister will teach you a lesson about rules. Consider it your bad luck. I’ll take out all the frustration I’ve endured this past year on you!”

As soon as she finished speaking, Ji Hongxiu transformed from her human form into her Fox-man form, which allowed her to unleash far greater combat power. She was not taking the little girl before her as lightly as she appeared.

Standing to the side, Major General Hu wore a peculiar expression. When he was transferred from his tribe to serve under Ji Hongxiu, he had heard private rumors that their Grand Elder Ye Hu of the Fox-man tribe had been plucked by some unknown young man. At the time, the matter had caused a serious conflict between the Lion-man and Fox-man tribes. Although it was eventually dropped, the affair had been quite unpleasant. Over the past year, Major General Hu had never seen Ji Hongxiu get close to anyone, with the sole exception of that Black Demon, of which she seemed especially fond. Otherwise, there was nothing unusual. He had assumed it was all just a rumor. He never expected to find the answer here. So, that was the man. Although he didn’t know how Chen Pingchuan had come into contact with the Grand Elder Ye Hu, judging by the attitude of his superior, Ji Hongxiu, there was no doubt it was him.

As these thoughts flashed through Major General Hu’s mind, he gestured with his right hand for his subordinates to retreat. If their boss was about to unleash her power, it wouldn’t do to get caught in the crossfire.

Seeing the transformed Ji Hongxiu, Belia refused to be outdone. Though she was only just over a meter tall, she somehow produced a laser combat blade nearly a meter and a half in length.

Just as a fierce battle was about to break out between them, Chen Pingchuan quickly spoke to stop them. Given Ji Hongxiu’s attitude, it was obvious she wasn’t seeking revenge for his mistreatment. This realization brought him a quiet sense of relief. At least now he had a better idea of the Holy Spirit Sect’s stance toward him. Even the worst-case scenario wouldn’t be too terrible.

”Hold on, don’t fight yet,” Chen Pingchuan hurriedly tried to mediate. ”Let’s clear the air. There must be some kind of misunderstanding here.”

”Shut up.”

Both women turned to look at Chen Pingchuan simultaneously, their words identical.

At that moment, Ji Hongxiu was thinking that her own man hadn’t immediately taken her side upon seeing her. She felt immensely wronged. All the pressure and hard work she had endured over the past year seemed to have been for nothing.

As for Belia, she thought, she already knew her brother’s identity was anything but simple. Even a powerful, seductive witch like the woman opposite him had been conquered. If she wanted to get along well with her brother in the future, she first had to defeat this woman.

And so, each harboring their own hidden agenda, they channeled their hostility toward one another. They were convinced that only by overpowering their rival could they gain more influence with Chen Pingchuan.

This was where a cunning mind proved its worth. Seeing Chen Pingchuan’s darkened expression, the anger on Ji Hongxiu’s face instantly vanished, replaced by a charming smile.
