Chapter 21: The True Western Guardian

  August 16th, summer vacation has passed more than half, and there are still over 10 days before the opening day of each university.

  Liu Xiaowen logged in to YY as usual after lunch today.

  "Ugh, school is about to start and I really don't want to go. It would be great to just stay home every day and read books. And that damn Lu Li, when will he finally update?"

  Liu Xiaowen is currently wearing a very small vest, and below that is a light green short hot pants. The relatively tight-fitting clothes set off Liu Xiaowen's figure well. This 18-year-old girl has developed extremely well, with her chest bulging out in front, which can be said to be protruding in the front and curving in the back.

  Now Liu Xiaowen pouted and puckered up her mouth, that sexy little mouth and current outfit, I don't know how many passionate young people will be unable to hold back.

  Although complaining, Liu Xiaowen still couldn't help but go to the "Fantasy City" page to take a look, which had almost become Liu Xiaowen's habit in these few days.

  "Huh? It's actually updated?" Liu Xiaowen saw that the catalog of "Fantasy City" had added a single chapter and three subsequent updates, and she exclaimed in surprise.

  "Oh yeah!" Liu Xiaowen shouted loudly, bouncing up and down on the bed, causing a surge in her chest. Then Liu Xiaowen lay on the bed like this, with her feet curled up and swaying from side to side, hugging her tablet computer and starting to get up.

  Although it was only one chapter, Liu Xiaowen still clicked in to take a look. After all, the single chapters usually say something, such as asking for votes or explaining the update time and so on.

  "Hmph, considering your attitude is relatively sincere, I'll let you off this time." Liu Xiaowen looked at Lu Li's single chapter and first apologized for not updating in a timely manner. She pouted and made a fierce expression on her face, but it was somehow cute no matter how she looked.

  Liu Xiaowen had no idea what she looked like at that moment, nor did she know that she was slowly becoming one of Lu Li's most loyal supporters, whether it was in online articles or later in music and movies. In short, Liu Xiaowen gradually became one of Lu Li's brain-dead fans, but all of this is a story for another time.

  The number of words in the chapter written by Lu Li was not too many, and Liu Xiaowen quickly finished reading it. Although she felt regretful that "Fantasy City" was about to end, she also wanted to see how the ending would turn out. Moreover, there were still three chapters updated today waiting for Liu Xiaowen, so she didn't linger on this chapter and started moving on.

  Soon, Liu Xiaowen was already deeply engrossed in the subsequent plot and couldn't extricate herself.

  Kasuo thought Huang Zhen was the Western Guardian and killed him personally. Later, the real Western Guardian Xing Gui appeared, just as Xing Gui was about to take action, Chao Ya, Moon Goddess, and Huang Zhen all appeared, it turned out that they were not dead but had put on a good show to lure out the Western Guardian's good show.

  But then slowly pushed forward the doubts that had been buried before, making Liu Xiaowen exclaim "brilliant" in her heart, but on her face there was no expression at all, only her eyes staring intently at the screen of the tablet computer.

  "This star is so annoying, I originally had a good impression of her." Liu Xiaowen said hatefully after hearing some words from Xingyu.

  "Hmph, let's get started and see how Starlight dies." She got to this point in the chapter and finished it. Liu Xiaowen muttered to herself and clicked on the next chapter.

  But Liu Xiaowen didn't think so afterwards.

  Just as several people were about to take action, Xing Gui stopped, and it turned out that Xing Gui's brother, Xing Jiu, had arrived. Later, Xing Gui took his own life without getting forgiveness from Xing Jiu, and after seeing Xing Gui's self-written will in a dream, Liu Xiaowen's tears flowed silently.

  "The trajectory of the stars is not wrong, no one is wrong, but why is it so cruel? I really want to cry." Liu Xiaowen was not thinking of crying at this moment, she had already started crying, and tears kept falling down.

  "Yuanjie, just how powerful is he, to be able to give eternal life to the Star Track?" Liu Xiaowen felt a lump in her throat and choked out.

  The Western protector has appeared and died, and many people who have read Liu Xiaowen know that Kaso is about to find the Spring of Rebirth to revive his brother, and the story is also coming to an end. No wonder the author said that "Fantasy City" only has more than 1.2 million words.

  Wiping away the tears on her face, Liu Xiaowen directly rewarded 1,000,000 yy coins and wrote: "Mosquito rewards 'Fantasy City' with 1,000,000 yy coins, welcoming back Lu Li."

  After tipping, Liu Xiaowen quit and entered her own reader group "Snow City".

  "Lu Li Da Da has resumed updates, 3 chapters were updated today, the true Western Guardian has appeared, those who haven't read it yet should hurry up and take a look. Also, heart-wrenching, it's recommended to prepare tissues before reading." Liu Xiaowen's online alias Mosquito said.

  "Has it been updated? I'll go take a look right away." As soon as Liu Xiaowen's message came out, the group immediately boiled over, with many people replying that they would go take a look right away, while even more people didn't say anything and went to read the updated chapters.

  Li Xiaoxuan is a 27-year-old urban white-collar woman who has a two-year-old son. Although she has given birth to a child, it has not had any impact on her good figure, and she still has the same charm as before. Moreover, Li Xiaoxuan was originally quite pretty, and now as a mother, she has a fatal attraction to some young people.

  From the gaze of those college students who have just come to work in the company every day, Li Xiaoxuan knows how much attraction she has. Although she doesn't like such a gaze, her eyes are on others' faces and she can't do anything about it, so she gets used to it over time.

  Li Xiaoxuan has recently become obsessed with a book called "Fantasy City", and reads it every night before bed. However, the book hasn't been updated in recent days, leaving Li Xiaoxuan somewhat disappointed. She also noticed some reward posts and messages from readers hoping for the author to resume updates in the comment section.

  However, Li Xiaoxuan did not do so, because she had long passed that passionate age and became much calmer and more rational.

  Tonight, after dinner, Li Xiaoxuan's husband played with their little son, and Li Xiaoxuan opened her computer to log in to YY to see if the author had updated. Although Li Xiaoxuan didn't go to reward, she thought the author should know about this, because the YY editorial department would definitely notify the author.

  With this idea in mind, Li Xiaoxuan entered the page of "Fantasy City".

  "As expected, it's been updated." Li Xiaoxuan muttered to herself in a low voice, revealing a hint of a smile.

  "Lu Di Da Da has just come back, why be so cruel? It makes me cry uncontrollably."

  "I'm so touched I cried, a guy like me actually cried, Lu Li Da you're awesome."

  "My god, the Western Guardian is actually her, it's really unexpected, but she's really pitiful."

  "Yes, at first I really disliked him, but after watching the Western Monk's dream and not getting his brother's forgiveness in the end, it was really pitiful, crying miserably."

  ……

  Li Xiaoxuan first pulled her to the book review area and took a look, only to find that they were all opinions on the new chapter, with the most discussed being Western Protection.

  These comments had already piqued Li Xiaoxuan's curiosity, and she couldn't help but click to read them. She hadn't been so worked up over something in a long time.

  "Brother, I don't care about those people, I only care about you. Are you really unwilling to forgive me?"

  "Yes, I won't forgive you."

  It was such a simple conversation, yet it also brought Li Xiaoxuan to tears, she had completely immersed herself in it, as if she were there in person, feeling the same way.

  Li Xiaoxuan was originally not fond of watching martial arts films, but under the persistent persuasion of a close friend, she finally agreed to give this one a try.

  At first, Li Xiaoxuan just wanted to get by, but as time went on, she became more and more engrossed, especially in the emotions between Kaso, Liruo, and Lanshang. That kind of simple yet heart-wrenching love left Li Xiaoxuan infatuated.

  But Li Xiaoxuan didn't expect that the brotherly and sisterly love between Xing Gui and Xing Jiu would move her even more, especially after watching Xing Gui's dream, Li Xiaoxuan was even more heartbroken. She just wanted to spend more time with her brother, but fate really plays tricks on people, from the moment Xing Gui agreed to become the Western Protector for Yuan Ji, perhaps the current outcome had already been designed. Everyone who saw this knew about Yuan Ji's strength.

  "Ah!" After finishing reading Xingyu's dream, Li Xiaoxuan couldn't bear it anymore and burst into tears.

  Her crying scared her husband who was playing with their son, he walked over to her worriedly and hugged her, saying: "Wife, what's wrong?" His tense emotions were evident in his words.

  And the two-year-old son also crawled and walked over, hugging Li Xiaoxuan's leg and cooing: "Mommy, don't cry, Daddy is a bad egg, bullying Mommy."

  Li Xiaoxuan heard her son's words and burst out laughing. Seeing her husband's worried expression, she felt herself surrounded by happiness, and cried while laughing: "I'm fine, I just got moved by the book."

  Perhaps, Xingyu just wants a simple life like this, whether it's family or love, it's just that simple. However, in order to get such a life, Xingyu had to become the Western Guardian and do things that he didn't want to do in his heart.

  "Honey, this 'Phantom City' is really good, you should take a look when you have time." Li Xiaoxuan said to her husband.

  "I don't have time for that." Li Xiaoxuan's husband said helplessly.

  "I don't care, you have to watch it anyway." Li Xiaoxuan heard this and didn't comply, throwing a tantrum instead.

  "Alright, alright, can't I just take a look?" Indeed, this is one of women's greatest tricks.

  The same scene is being staged in many places in China, and after reading the three chapters of Western Guardian, some people are feeling melancholic, while others like Liu Xiaowen and Li Xiaoxuan burst into tears.

  Even many boys, after finishing reading it, couldn't help but feel a lump in their throat and struggled to hold back tears. They felt choked with emotion. And more people also recommended this book to their relatives and friends.

  PS: Before the update today, I saw two evaluation votes cast by friends, and although I don't know what they're used for, I'm extremely grateful. Thank you so much! Also, thank you to those who recommended and collected my work, really thanks to you all. "All-Rounder" this week's performance on the new book chart isn't as good as last week's, but it can still stay up mainly due to collections and clicks. I hope everyone has recommendation votes that they can give to "All-Rounder", thank you endlessly. Xing Gui is also a character I liked when I watched "Fantasy City" before, so there's this chapter, hoping everyone likes it.
