Reborn as Xiao in another world, targeted by the little red bird

After Red Xiao passed through the barrier, he ran into a few people. His battle-damaged appearance frightened them. They claimed that they had received a mission from the Adventure Association and were waiting here. As they spoke, they began to contact that person.

Soon, President Qiao called.

It turned out that after Xiao lost contact again, they were very anxious, but there was nothing they could do. They could only send someone to come and take a look to see if they could find out what was wrong.

Upon learning that Xiao was injured, President Qiao asked the adventure team to escort him back and discuss what happened inside after he returned.

After the communication ended, several people gathered around enthusiastically. Red Xiao glanced at them calmly and spread his wings and flew away. The expressions of several people froze, and they withdrew their eyes from the figure swallowed by the night, and looked at their companions at a loss.

Escort? I look so fragile?

Hong Xiao thought so in his heart, and disappeared into the twilight alone. Chi Yi broke up the floating clouds, and soon a brightly lit city appeared in front of him, and the city gate was closed at this time.

"Don't change it back?" Xiao asked.

Hong Xiao asked back, "I can't meet your friends?"

Red Xiao: If my other self felt how serious this injury was, he would be scolded, right? Tsk, please don't let him know. Yeah, that's it.

"Of course you can, but you can't do anything rash, otherwise it will be very troublesome to explain." Xiao answered directly without thinking too much.

"Why, you can't trust me?"

Xiao blurted out: "Believe."

"Hmph." He flew directly over the top of the city wall and into the city.

"Hmm? Did something just go in?"

"It's just a gust of wind. Why are you so nervous?"

"The wind is picking up, and the weather is going to change. When I finish my duty, I must remind my wife to prepare cotton clothes and quilts."

"Is it the wind? I think so."

Some of the soldiers guarding the city noticed the traces left by the red goblin, but were quickly convinced by their colleagues' statements.

President Qiao felt a vibration outside the house and planned to go out to see what happened. When he opened the door, he saw a Xiao with its head tilted up, staring at him closely with a pair of blue eyes. The face of the boy in front of him was no different from the Xiao he knew, but the temperament he exuded was completely different, giving people a more arrogant feeling.

Wait, Qingtong?

He remembered the figure he saw in an unknown space when he first met Xiao.

"It's you." He took two steps back, lowered his eyes to look at the wound on Hong Xiao's chest, and asked, "How is he?"

"No problem." Hong Xiao simply replied with two words and stopped talking. The surroundings fell into an eerie silence.

"Why isn't he speaking? What should I say next?" Hong Xiao asked in his heart.

Xiao: "I, I don't know."

"...What use do I have for you?" Hong Xiao said with a look of disappointment.

Boom! Another figure crashed outside the house, breaking the awkward situation inside.

"Old Qiao, someone broke into the city and is heading towards you. Are you okay..." City Lord Kang strode out of the gray smoke. When he saw Hong Xiao and President Qiao, he was stunned, and the words he hadn't finished were stuck in his mouth.

"Xiao? You're back so soon?" His eyes fell on President Qiao's face: "Why are you alone? Didn't you send someone to pick him up?"

"No need." Hong Xiao replied indifferently.

While the three were talking, the unnecessary adventure team felt that it was not suitable to travel at night. They had just found a good place to set up camp and rest, and were setting up the site. They planned to report the emergency situation on their side to the president after the tents were set up.

President Qiao took a step forward and blocked City Lord Kang's puzzled gaze: "Xiao is injured. Let's talk about other things after his wound is treated."

……

City Lord Kang and Guild Master Qiao stood at the door, silently watching the doctor treat Red Xiao. Suddenly, Guild Master Qiao received a message and left the room. When he came back, he whispered in City Lord Kang's ear, "I don't know where those two Yuanliu people heard about Xiao's return, and now they are making trouble outside. My men can't stop them. City Lord, can you come out and solve the problem?"

"Yeah." City Lord Kang nodded and left.

"If the wound was deeper, it would have damaged the internal organs. This wound is on the chest. If the internal organs were damaged, it would be over. Fortunately, the bleeding stopped quickly, otherwise even if the internal organs were not damaged, he would have died from excessive blood loss." The doctor scolded while treating the wound of Red Xiao.

elf:"!"

Red Xiao: "Don't listen to him, it's not that serious, just a little bleeding. Even if there is more bleeding, this body can hold on."

Xiao: I have walked back from the gates of hell without realizing it. These days are becoming more and more exciting.

Red Xiao: "As long as you don't want to, no one can take you away without my permission."

Xiao: I’m quite touched to hear this.

"What if I want to?" Xiao regretted saying this. What was wrong with him? Why did he ask such a stupid question?

"Don't worry about the problem just now..." Seeing Hong Xiao silent, he hurriedly opened his mouth and wanted to turn the page, but was interrupted.

"Then let's go together."

"What?" Xiao was stunned.

"I have no interest in worldly things. Rather than living alone, I would rather take the culprit who made you have this idea with me and go to hell with you," Hong Xiao said word by word in a nonchalant tone.

elf:"……"

Xiao: Wow, my heart is moved, Xiao-kun, Yabai, and Kaku!

Red Mandrill: What kind of bird language is that? Are you praising me? Never mind, just treat it as a compliment.

Xiao: "Well, stop it, let's end this unlucky topic here."

"Think more about your relatives and friends, and don't work too hard, young man." The doctor bandaged Hong Xiao's wound, supported his waist, and looked helplessly at the young man who was staring at something in a daze.

Red Mandrill: "Noisy."

Xiao: "Well, just complain about this in your mind."

Red Mandrill: "Yeah, I know."

"It's best for you to stay in bed for a month to recover from your injury." The doctor handed the prescription to President Qiao and packed up the medicine box. "However, if you want to get better sooner, you can try to get some healing pills."

As soon as the doctor left, City Lord Kang came in with the two people from Yuanliu. President Qiao cast a puzzled look, as if asking, I asked you to stop them, why did you bring them in?

"This is the result of the negotiations." City Lord Kang glanced at President Qiao.

Seeing the solemnity in the other party's eyes, President Qiao asked in a low voice: "What did they tell you?"

"Let me explain it to you ignorant civilians." One of the people in Yuanliu stood up, "This is a secret that you cannot access, but now that the war has reached this point, there is no need to keep it secret any longer."

"The monsters that came across the sea contain a certain power. Once people below the king level are infected by this power, they will be assimilated if they are not dealt with in time. Coincidentally, among the supplies we carry are elixirs that can remove the infection." He looked at Lord Kang and President Qiao, "But this is something within the organization. We can't give it to you on our own unless you offer a sufficient price."

"Pay some price to save this boy, or kill him directly to eliminate future troubles, or leave him alone and let him destroy the city you are protecting from the inside. Choose one."
