Become A Protagonist 2's
Chapters. 20 - Jiu Meishan's
Two months ago, the temple of the God of Light, Mubei Region.
”A-Ruo-france. You must be wondering why you can come back to life.” Hui Song said as he sat next to Xiao Ruo's coffin. ”... I see your life energy is huge. Death is not something you want for now. Protecting someone valuable to you, is something you really want.”
”Is that all you told me? What about the people in the village? Do they think I'm dead?” xiao Ruo who looked uneasy asked as he had sat down and felt the fresh air around him. ”... Do I have to fear you and you threaten to take my life?”
Hui Song sighed. After that, he said, ”... I can't possibly kill an innocent human like you let alone, you seem so kind to anyone. What you should be aware of right now is the incarnation of the Black Devil and the first deceitful God. However, it seems impossible if you are being wary of your sister.”
Xiao Ruo did not twitch and remained silent while lowering his gaze.
”Just calm down, you don't have to be afraid of me. I am a good-natured god. Supposedly, if you want to protect your sister, you should be wary of someone named Jiu Meishan. He was a pretty dangerous Peach Tree God. He was very loyal to the black devil. Over the years, he continued to search for the existence of the new Incarnation of the Black Devil. If he manages to find her, Jiu Meishan will take her power and make herself the container of the Black Devil Incarnation.”
Xiao Ruo was stunned after he heard the story. ”... Then, what if his strength was actually taken away by him? Is there anyone who can do it?”
Hui Song replied, ”Jiu Meishan is hundreds of years old. Of course he can do things that easily. If he managed to absorb one's strength then, that person would die slowly.”

”Adik Xuan! Dodge from there!” yelled Xiao Ruo who instantly pulled Xiao Qing Xuan's hand back. He finally stood with the sword drawn towards Jiu Meishan which appeared suddenly.
Jiu Meishan looked at him confusedly and asked, ”Is there no welcome for me? The young man in front of me instantly unsheathed his sword as if making me look like an enemy to you.” he said as he walked forward towards Xiao Qing Xuan.
”Who is this guy? I have never seen him.” Liu Zhang Chen's inner look was alert.
”Hei! Xiao Ruo's! You want to protect His Majesty or you want to keep him away from his family?” jiu Meishan asked back. ”Your Majesty, come here! I came because your uncle misses you so much.”
”Why does the whole world call me that? It seems that I am not from the noble faction.” Inner Xiao Qing Xuan who felt astonished at herself.
”No want!” chirps Xiao Qing Xuan who was directly hugging Xiao Ruo's waist from behind. ”... If Brother Ruo draws out his sword, it means that you are a dangerous person. I don't know why all the deceitful gods call me 'Your Majesty' when I know nothing myself.”
Jiu Meishan curled her lips and said while extending her hand, ”... Come here Your Majesty. I'll take you back to Mubei. Your uncle will soon declare war with Huanxu and soon, you will lose your father.”
”If Your Majesty wants to know, why doesn't His Majesty come with me?” jiu Meishan asked back.
Xiao Ruo increasingly pulled him back and said, ”No need to follow you! I'm the one who'll take her back there!” he said with a serious-looking expression.
Jiu Meishan turned her attention lazily. ”... I really hate the bullies that are here. Does Your Majesty not mind if I kill them?” he said while taking out a very large sword.
”.....”
”Hei! Enough jokes, right?” xiao Qing Xuan asked coldly as he brought up a few swords that directly aimed at Jiu Meishan with a very close distance.
”Oh, no. His eyes have changed! What happens if he can't control his own strength?” inner Liu Zhang Chen who noticed Xiao Qing Xuan's eyeballs turned red.
Jiu Meishan smiled and said, ”Your Highness is very happy to do violence. For a long time, I never betrayed you. I promise to take you back to where you came from.” he said as he bowed before Xiao Qing Xuan.
”Adik Xuan! Stay behind me!” whispered Xiao Ruo as he pulled Xiao Qing Xuan away.
Xiao Qing Xuan released Xiao Ruo's grip abruptly. He immediately turned his back while holding his chest which was hot. ”... It felt like someone wanted to come out of my body! So hot! Somehow he did, this fellow seemed to be pulling my strength slowly.” Inner Xiao Qing Xuan who then removed her sword.
”I will not go with you.” Xiao Qing Xuan said as she walked back. ”... Let's just get out of here.”
Xiao Ruo immediately ran up to him. Right now, a bad feeling appeared in his mind. With the arrival of Jiu Meishan, they had to be careful with him since this fellow was able to kill his opponent in silence. He might not seem to be doing anything right now. However, no one expected that he had carried out his attack since then.
While walking, Xiao Qing Xuan coughed blood all of a sudden leaving everyone shocked. Knowing that this attack came from Jiu Meishan, Xiao Ruo immediately took out his sword and moved to attack without taking it into account first.
Jiu Meishan instantly disappeared from her sight. He reappeared in front of Xiao Qing Xuan who was sitting on his knees after half of his strength was forced to come out.
”Sorry, Your Grace. I was just testing you before. Next time, I will do well.” said Jiu Meishan ended with a grin grin.
As he ended it, Liu Zhang Chen appeared behind Xiao Qing Xuan and he instantly slashed Jiu Meishan's head in front of him. However, Jiu Meishan had already disappeared first and he had not reappeared for a while.
