Chapter 197: Original text: Chapter 197: Like Bi Xiaoyuan’s Nothingness

Sighing, right before entering the Void Space, 007 conjured up a mirror and looked at the formatted little figure in it. Raising a hand to his head, 007 remarked to himself that it was fortunate he hadn’t grown hair yet. Otherwise, within a day, those two rascals would have definitely turned his head white!

As soon as he jumped into the Void Space, the previously soft whimpering grew louder, turning into thunderous roars. Then, a torrential downpour began suddenly. [007 Brother!!! I told you I didn’t want to see Bi Xiaoxia! She just bullies me all the time!]

007: ...

Seeing Bi Xia, who was already used to this, had early on conjured up an umbrella. In the moment the rain started to fall, she held the umbrella over her head and kept laughing carelessly. 007 soothed the Void for a bit, then conjured up a small umbrella for himself and jumped onto Bi Xia’s shoulder.

[I say, Your Majesty, when will you and the Void stop messing with each other? This system really can’t handle your antics anymore!]

felt that in this world, only two entities were his nemesis. One was the human Bi Xia—oh, now considered reborn—and the other was the Void, who was obviously a baby but loved to act like an old man.

Every time these two rascals stirred up trouble, 007 felt like life was unbearable.

"I’m not laughing!" Bi Xia said with a wide grin.

007: ...Could you at least stop grinning so mockingly before you say that?!

Noticing what 007 wanted to say, Bi Xia tried to suppress her laughter. She always thought the Void was an old man who lacked love and thus liked to torment people. She didn’t expect it to be a tiny little baby that liked to tattle—it was such a surprising contrast!

Looking down at 007, who closed his little umbrella and jumped under her bigger one, Bi Xia raised an eyebrow, "Yo, 007, congratulations on evolving from 2D to 3D!"

007: ...

[Leveled up, thus evolved. Otherwise, staying in the electronic screen would have made me frustrated.]

[Wait, now we’re talking about you two!], 007 said exasperatedly. He turned and shouted into the void, [Little brat! Stop crying. My head’s about to explode!]

Void: ...

The sound of sniffling came from the air, and in an instant, the violent storm disappeared. A sullen, soft voice sounded, [007 Brother, don’t be mad. I was just playing around with Bi Xiaoxia.]

007: ...

"Yeah, yeah, we were just playing around," Bi Xia switched to a serious face in a second, aligning with the Void.

007: ...Haha, it seemed like he would never escape the grasp of Bi Xia and the Void in this lifetime!

[Sigh, you two really are... stubborn...] 007 sighed lightly, then said softly, [If you miss each other, just say so. Why express it like this?]

Hearing the Void’s voice and looking at 007, Bi Xia’s lips curved into a smile. She relaxed and fell back onto the ground, slowly closing her eyes.

The previously howling ’demonic wind’ instantly calmed down, turning into a cool and pleasant breeze that gently caressed Bi Xia. Then, a stream of white spiritual energy formed a straight line in mid-air, slowly seeping into Bi Xia’s body... Each drop carried tenderness and a feeling called longing.

You stubborn little thing...

was right. She really did... miss the Void... Even though she always thought the Void was an old grump.

However, during her time in the Void Space, the endless training and mental torment exhausted her. Gradually, Bi Xia found that after sleeping, her whole body felt refreshed, and the injuries from sparring with the trainer vanished.

So Bi Xia had a thought and pretended to sleep.

In the end, she discovered that the Void would quietly take care of her while she slept, brushing through her whole body and manipulating the wind to make her sleep more comfortably.

From that time on, Bi Xia realized that the Void Space was a sentient space, and moreover, it was a warm-hearted space despite a cold exterior. However, Bi Xia always wondered why the Void Space didn’t discover her feigned sleep; so she thought, maybe the Void was just a... grumpy old man.

Slowly, Bi Xia accepted the Void, even teasing it verbally, knowing it couldn’t talk back... and then the sky would blush. After a few times, she realized this was the Void’s way of being shy.

Now it seemed, her red lips curved without disguise. The Void was just a kid, caring for others in an awkward way, like... Bi Xiaoyuan.

Thinking of this, her heart unexpectedly softened a lot. She lazily flipped onto her back with her eyes closed, and slowly said, "Welcome back... Little Void friend."

Her starry eyes slowly opened to see the horizon turning red, then a few raindrops fell. Bi Xia paused. Why was it crying?

A soft, slightly hoarse voice came slowly from the air, [Bi Xiaoxia... Void thought that after everything before, you wouldn’t like it anymore! Wah!!! T0T!!!]
