The Otherworldly Adventures of a Super Naive Girl Chapter 105

Zi Cheng and Ming Xi's team were together because they had run into each other while visiting Sir Germaine. The two groups quickly realized everyone was a student at Xingguang Holy Academy. Somehow the conversation turned to the badlands; Ming Xi explained they were heading there to gain experience. This interested Zi Cheng and she asked if they minded travelling together for a bit. Zi Cheng was charming and easily gave a good first impression, so of course Ming Xi and his group were fine with it. If she was coming along, so too would her group, thus the present situation.

It was an unhappy coincidence for both Ming Xi and Jier. Who would have guessed they would run into each other so soon after just parting at the restaurant?

On the other hand Feng Wu was quite happy, as evinced by the glow of happiness shining like sparkles from her eyes.

Ming Xi coughed awkwardly as he turned his head away. Although he experienced her gazes before, he was still uncomfortable. The pressure was too intense.

"Hey! What a surprise. It's the seniors from captain and Xiao Wu's school. Are you all going to the badlands too?" Pei Qing exclaimed.

"Yeah we are. What a coincidence," replied Luis.

"Come, come. Let's put the two tables together." Elena walked over to Feng Wu and enthusiastically pulled her along.

Wind and Pei Qing moved to obey and shifted the tables together.

Once everything was settled everyone sat down. Elena sat next to Feng Wu. She was like a molester, rubbing Feng Wu's hair and pinching her cheeks.

"Sister Elena you're being unsightly! Please stop bullying Xiao Wu!" Jier had to say something; he couldn't take it anymore. She was clingy like this too when they first met. (Isn't she supposed to be a vixen? Wait hold on… she's never actually been linked to a guy romantically. Don't tell me it's all a lie and she's actually into girls?!) Jier began to seriously wonder if perhaps Elena preferred girls.

The more he thought about it, the darker his face became.

"I say, for first-years you guys have a lot of guts going to the badlands on your own." Gerasi gulped down a large mouthful of drink. He sounded disapproving.

"No worries. We don't intend to actually go inside. We're going to just walk around the perimeter and pick up the things we find there." Rain said as she laughed cutely while staring starstruck at them. (Wow. Every one of them is looks so amazing. Really worthy of being students at Xingguang Holy Academy.)

Gerasi was not soothed by Rain's reply. "I don't think you guys understand. Even if you are just walking the perimeter, it's still very dangerous. You can lose your life there." He thought the freshmen this year were too crazy and audacious. They clearly didn't understand how dangerous the area was. Only first-years and they wanted to waltz around the badlands.

Even Zi Cheng and her friends, his group had only allowed them to tag along because they were afraid for the girls' safety. Otherwise they would never have willingly carried such a burden.

They had a gross overestimation of their own abilities. Gerasi deeply resented them, but at the same time he couldn't abandon them and let them endanger themselves.

"Ah forget it. You guys are just like Zi Cheng. You can come with us but you have to follow our orders. OK?" Elena fiercely smushed Feng Wu's cheeks with her palms, moving her head left and right, making Feng Wu's lips purse like a fish. Her own plump melons jiggled back and forth with the effort. However it was wasted eye candy as present company didn't know how to appreciate the view.

"We can really tag along with you guys?" Rain was excited. She turned to Feng Wu and Elena and enthusiastically commented. "This'll be so great! Xiao Wu, now you and Senior Ming Xi can practice and gain experience together!"

"Yes." Feng Wu nodded happily. There was the faint thread of a smile on her usually expressionless face.

Yifu thought Feng Wu was a pretender who liked to act innocent and naïve. Her dislike for Feng Wu hadn't changed since the school assessment weeks ago. If anything, Feng Wu had only risen to become her arch nemesis, so of course she immediately spoke out against the idea. "Senior Sister Elena, do you really want them to come with us? We don't know how strong they are. What if they hold us back?"

Tian Yu, who had been silent the entire time, opened his mouth to cut Yifu's argument down. "And you think you're qualified?"

"Pfft!" Gerasi and Luis had to try really hard not to laugh out loud.

Zi Cheng was such a beautiful and charming, graceful junior who didn't hesitate to help the poor people they bumped into along the way. Her two companions on the other hand…

Yifu always had something critical to say; she had no charm whatsoever. The other one, Jasmine, liked to act aloof and snooty. Even when she was helping Zi Cheng with the people they met, she managed to do so in a condescending way.

Gerasi and Luis couldn't understand how Zi Cheng could be friends with Yifu and Jasmine. They could only admire her mental fortitude in being able to put up with the two girls.

"Please forgive Yifu, Senior Tian Ya. She didn't mean any harm by it." Zi Cheng pulled Yifu's hand to stop her from saying any more.

Zi Cheng easily read the atmosphere and apologized on Yifu's behalf. She had lived a lifetime and was skilled at reading people's expressions. Things would turn sour if Yifu kept talking.

The seniors were kind enough to travel on the journey thus far with them. Zi Cheng had said at the start her group would part ways with them once they reached the badlands, but secretly she knew it wouldn't happen.

She was banking on the seniors' kindness to not abandon them to roam on their own, and therefore bring them into the deeper parts of the badlands. This was important. She needed to go deep into the badlands.

A month ago she had found a strange metal sheet on the streets. She decided to investigate by dripping a drop of her blood on it. A map of the badlands appeared when she did so. It marked the tomb of a fallen god from ancient times.

Originally Zi Cheng hadn't intended to pursue it, but then she bumped into the seniors. If she could accompany them, then finding the treasure became possible. She kept the existence of the map and treasure a secret.
