On the way to becoming the strongest, I first became a popular person.

Chapter 218: The Moon in the Mud

"Then I used various methods and tried every possible means to find this place."

As Yin Xu spoke, his voice gradually lowered. He looked up and carefully observed Shi Chu's expression, fearing that she would be angry.

"Owner."

He wanted to reach out to grab the corner of her clothes, but when he glanced at the dust on his hands, he silently retracted his hand.

His master should be clean and not dirty.

Yin Xu looked up at the girl in front of him and shrank back, feeling ashamed and embarrassed by his now dirty and unsightly appearance. He quietly hid his dusty hands behind his back, fearing that they would pollute her eyes.

If he had known that she would show up today, he would have definitely cleaned himself up and would not have appeared in front of her in such a miserable and embarrassed state.

He is dirty now and doesn't look good at all. Will she still want him as a pet?

Will she get a new pet?

Since she is so good, there must be many people rushing to be her pet, including the children of big families who are better than herself.

He is an orphan and has nothing, no money and no power. He also looks ferocious. Many people are afraid of him. He cannot compare with those glamorous and likable alphas. Will she really not want him?

He was born on Chaos Star and struggled to grow up in an extremely harsh environment. He relied on some despicable means to constantly snatch resources and survived until now and met her.

Not only was there a lot of blood of star beasts on his hands, but also the blood of many of his own kind. For a little bit of food and to survive, he had killed many, many people, so many that he couldn't even count them.

That is the rule of survival on Chaos Star: the strong survive and the weak die.

There is no talk of benevolence, righteousness, or morality there, only who is stronger and has the harder fist.

It is a jungle and paradise for wild beasts. The weak will only become food, which may be of star beasts or humans.

He climbed out of Chaos Star by stepping on the corpses of countless people, and those sins can no longer be washed away.

He was covered in mud, but he longed for the bright moon in the sky.

No one knew that beneath this crazy and ferocious appearance was a fragile heart. The deep sense of inferiority had long been engraved in Yin Xu's bones and buried deep in his soul.

Yin Xu looked up at the neatly dressed black-haired girl in front of him. She was so beautiful that she seemed like someone from a different world than him.

She was born to belong to the sunshine, like the hottest flame, so attractive no matter what she looked like. Even when she was nakedly showing her malice to others, he couldn't help but indulge in it.

Even though she belongs to the night, she is the most dazzling blood flower in the night sky, the blood moon hanging high in the sky, the existence that she longs for but is out of reach, attracting everyone to come closer.

And he himself is just a hyena hiding in a dark corner, the difference is like heaven and earth. All this makes him feel inferior and sad.

He greedily longed to be closer to the gods in heaven and longed for every glance from her. A despicable man like him was not worthy of standing shoulder to shoulder with her.

He just needed to be a pet crawling at her feet, just a little space by her side.

But she seemed to no longer want me, and it was not my turn even to be her pet.

Yin Xu thought about his game account and Star Network account that were suddenly deleted a few days ago, and began to worry that she would hate him because of some of the bold and crazy words he had said when he couldn't control himself.

He became even more frightened, bit his pale lips, and the tears in his eyes became more violent.

This wait of nearly a year, the feeling of being without her tortured me day and night.

He simply couldn't accept losing her, and he lost his appetite every day and couldn't sleep at night.

The food made him feel inedible and nauseous. He could only survive by taking a nutritional supplement occasionally. His body was extremely weak.

He continued to torture his body so that his soul would not feel so much pain.

Only in this way could he suppress those self-destructive thoughts and convince himself to live well and wait for her to come back.

Every day he sat at the door waiting for her to come home, and often fell asleep while waiting. In his dreams, the girl would touch his head and praise him, hold his hand, and take him to kill people with a smile.

But dreams are just dreams, beautiful but short-lived.

Every time he woke up from a dream, he saw only a dark world in front of him, as dead silent as his heart, making it difficult for him to breathe.

The horrible feeling of loss continued to torture his body and soul. He could only desperately recall the past and rely on those few good memories to survive.

"……Owner."

Yin Xu looked up at the real girl standing right in front of him. With a trembling voice, he mustered up the courage to carefully call her. Then he gritted his teeth and stopped talking. He just stared at her silently and let his tears flow.

Shi Chu looked at his fragile and fragile appearance and didn't know what to do.

I felt like if I said something harsh to him, he would be so sad that he would die.

If I had known, I wouldn’t have made such a big deal in the game. Now I’m in trouble in reality.

At first I thought that since I didn't reveal any information, I could get away with it once the game was deleted. I didn't expect that someone would come to my door.

"How long have you been here?"

"Ten months, seventeen days, five hours, forty-two minutes and thirty-seven seconds."

It doesn't have to be so precise. Do you live your life by the clock?

"You're just... uh, sleeping right outside my door every day?"

"No, I live there."

Yin Xu wiped his hands on his body, but there was still a lot of dirt. He drooped his eyelashes tremblingly, not daring to look directly into the girl's clean eyes. He quickly pointed to a place in the corner, and immediately hid his hands behind his back.

Shi Chu looked in the direction of his finger and saw a small metal cage there. There was nothing inside, just a bare cage.

She glanced down at the alpha's tall figure, then at the small metal cage.

It's such a small cage, he has to curl up to get in.

There's nothing in there, no quilt, pillow, cushion or anything like that. Wouldn't it be uncomfortable to sleep directly on the metal bar?

This is not a place for people to live in. Sleeping on the ground is a hundred times better than this. It's just torture for yourself.

I have lived in this broken cage for almost a year. With this perseverance, I will succeed in everything I do.

Why should we use this precious spirit on her? Why not do something else? If she starts a business, she might become a rich person.

Shi Chu pursed his lips hard and felt his temples throbbing and a severe headache.

This is a big trouble. Just based on his terrifying perseverance, I'm afraid he will never be able to get rid of him in this lifetime. Once he gets involved with her, he will stick to her for the rest of her life, like a thorn in her side.

So tricky.

"Owner."

The alpha in front of her looked up and called her again, his voice full of fear of being abandoned.

She glanced at Yin Xu silently, suddenly retracted the blood moon that had been against his neck, turned around and walked towards the door, and began to skillfully enter the password to open the door.

Yin Xu watched her back disappear coldly and ruthlessly at the door, and the door closed with a bang.

He lowered his head sadly, and his tears began to flow uncontrollably again. He could not control his body, and it was shaking violently and twitching.

There was dead silence in the space, with only the sound of his tears dripping onto the ground.
