The fairies I flirted with in the game became real?!

Choosing between dignity and friendship, she would have to do as Li Yuechan did, choose to stay and face life and death together with the friendly Li Muyang.

By abandoning dignity and friendship, she could take her parents and escape alone, surviving this life and death crisis.

But no matter whether the Li siblings lived or died, she would forever lose two close friends…

Ning Wan’er remained silent, watching the arguing Li siblings, and said nothing.

After a while, she quietly turned and left, returning to her own room.

She knew that her old habit of valuing her reputation and indecisiveness had gotten the best of her again.

From any perspective, at this moment, she should not be standing beneath the dangerous wall, she should escape in time and abandon the Li siblings.

She had a broad future ahead of her, with great ambition, and by no means should she die here.

But…

In the quiet room, Ning Wan’er lay on the rattan chair, gazing at the ceiling above, her thoughts drifting.

In the treacherous world of the Demon Path, having two friends you could confide in was so cheap, yet so precious.

Ning Wan’er sighed softly and said with a wry smile, “The Li siblings really are good people.”

In the selfish world of the Demon Path, faced with a crisis, these siblings chose to live and die together, unwilling to abandon anyone.

Such siblings were indeed worth befriending deeply.

It’s a pity that this time, she had to give up this friendship.

If she abandoned them in this crisis, perhaps the Li siblings wouldn’t blame her, but they would never again consider her a trustworthy friend in their hearts.

Ning Wan’er exhaled a breath of turbid air and murmured through gritted teeth.

“…But I can’t die here!”

Her ambitions were not yet realized; she was far from obtaining the prestige and titles of a mighty figure in the Purple Mansion.

She couldn’t die here.

Even if she had to tarnish her dignity, have her thoughts blocked, or even if she had to abandon her own parents here, she had to survive alone!

Life and death were Ning Wan’er’s ultimate bottom line!

No one could make her lay down her life for them, not even her own parents!

Ning Wan’er finally made up her mind.

But at that moment, a knock came at her door, and Li Muyang’s voice came from outside.

“…Wan’er, are you there?”

Ning Wan’er, who was lost in thought, immediately sat up and frowned towards the closed door, uncertain what Li Muyang could want from her.

But seeing the expectant look of the maid, Ning Wan’er nodded, signaling for the maid to open the door.

She also rose from the rattan chair and walked out of the inner room to the outer room.

The cold moonlight streamed through the windows of the outer room, casting light inside.

In the candle-lit room, it was as bright as day.

Li Muyang and Ning Wan’er sat facing each other, like in a normal visit.

Ning Wan’er did not initiate the conversation, curious to hear what Li Muyang had come to say.

But Li Muyang did not play coy with her.

After sitting down, Li Muyang smiled warmly and said, “Aunt Su and I have discussed again, and Aunt Su agrees with your suggestion.”

“Let’s escape separately. Wan’er, you take your family and leave the Flying Boat. The closest large city to us is Yan Mountain City, eight thousand li to the west.”

“Yan Mountain City is also a major stronghold under the Demon Sect’s control, with the City Lord being of the Spirit Travel Realm, and unlike Tianjiao City, which has suffered turmoil and weakened, Yan Mountain City’s strength remains unscathed.”

“With the Demon Sect’s might within Yan Mountain City, even if Old Leaf comes to attack, he will not gain any advantage.”

“You take your family and flee to Yan Mountain City. Once you enter the city, you will be absolutely safe.”

Li Muyang had taken the initiative to come to Ning Wan’er, actually to let her leave.

He earnestly said, “Take advantage of the fact that Old Leaf hasn’t caught up yet, leave quickly, the sooner the better, without any delay.”

Li Muyang was sincere, seemingly worried for Ning Wan’er’s safety, urgently pressing for her to leave.

In such a life-or-death situation, he was actually concerned about Ning Wan’er and proactively provided her a way to leave…

The maid beside them was astounded as she looked at Li Muyang, as if she had seen a ghost.

Ning Wan’er also frowned and said, “You…”

She stared at Li Muyang’s face with furrowed brows, as if trying to see through the true thoughts behind his sincere face.

But as their eyes met, Li Muyang’s were filled with an honest smile, and she couldn’t find any pretense or insincerity.

This Li Muyang was truly concerned about her.

Ning Wan’er smiled and said, “You, are you really a disciple of the Demon Sect? Such considerate behavior is completely out of place in our Demon Path.”

She had already made up her mind, and Li Muyang had actively persuaded Aunt Su for her.

With that being the case, Ning Wan’er had no reason to hesitate.

She immediately got up, ordered her maid to pack up, and went to notify her parents to get ready to leave.

Soon after, Ning Wan’er’s family had gathered their belongings and arrived on the deck.

Aunt Su took out four talismans and handed them to Ning Wan’er’s parents.

“These four flying talismans can carry both of you as you fly away.”

Ning Wan’er’s parents were nervous and frightened at this time, fearing the arrival of the Spirit Travel Realm Demon Cultivator.

If not for considering that Li Muyang was also a Direct Disciple, Ning Wan’er’s parents would probably have already berated him angrily for dragging them into this mess.

Ning Wan’er, with her accompanying maid, prepared to leave.

Before departing, she looked deeply at Li Muyang and smiled, “Leaving you behind this time, you won’t blame me, will you?”

Li Muyang shook his head with a smile and said, “Why should I blame you when all this is happening because of me? If you stayed and something happened because of this, even if I survived, I would feel guilty.”

Li Muyang spoke very sincerely.

However, such kind-hearted thinking was incredibly rare in the Demon Path and difficult for the demon cultivators to believe.

In the Demon Path, if one doesn’t take advantage, they’re at a loss.

Ning Wan’er looked deeply at Li Muyang and smiled, “You don’t blame me, but I don’t feel at ease.”

“I consider us good friends, and now, facing danger, to abandon a friend…”

Ning Wan’er let out a soft breath, speaking earnestly to Li Muyang.

“Regardless of whether you survive this time, I will do one thing for you in the future.”

“If you die, your family or friends can come to me, and I will do the same for them too.”

Ning Wan’er made her solemn promise, then floated away without waiting for Li Muyang’s response.

On the deck of the Flying Boat, Li Muyang watched the Ning family escape, shaking his head.

“This girl…”

Too dramatic.

He didn’t particularly care about Ning Wan’er leaving on her own.

After all, his relationship with Ning Wan’er was, indeed, quite ordinary.

He had no intention of continuing the original host’s foolish, fawning relationship with Ning Wan’er.

It was Li Yuechan, the young stepsister who stayed with him, who watched Ning Wan’er’s departing figure with a disappointed gaze.

“Brother…”

The girl sighed softly and said, “I thought Sister Ning would stay.”

It seemed that in this world, there were no more people as good as her brother.

At least in the Refinement Demon Sect, he was the only one she could truly trust.

Watching her friend leave decisively, Li Yuechan sighed deeply.

It was expected, yet she couldn’t help feeling disappointed.
