Reborn As A Villainous Cannon Fodder

Jinyue glanced back at Yino, who was still climbing the stairs at the foot of the mountain. She didn\'t rush to reveal herself, but quietly retreated behind the crowd, planning to give Yino another little surprise.

But this time, as soon as Yino reached the summit of the Divine Deer Shrine, his eyes were already vigilantly scanning the surroundings until he spotted a sneaky little foxgirl hiding behind the crowd.

Instantly, Yino snorted coldly and smiled, not feeling surprised at all.

He had expected this!

In Yino\'s eyes, Jinyue was like Schrodinger\'s fox. When you suddenly realized she hadn\'t shown up for a while, you had to watch every blind spot, wondering if she was hiding somewhere plotting mischief.

After spending so much time together, Yino had long gotten used to the fate of Jinyue appearing out of nowhere to pester him.

When he woke up at noon, Yino was already thinking about today\'s schedule. He wanted to go to the Divine Deer Shrine on the summit of the back mountain because according to the walkthrough from his previous life, the treasure and medicinal ingredients needed to help the Nine-Colored Deer recover its vitality were buried under those ruins.

But the problem was that Jinyue was definitely waiting for him at this shrine too.

If Yino brought Yunjin with him, then Yunjin would most likely be lured by Jinyue again, just like in the game, following the clues to the back mountain of the Wuji Sect and getting stabbed to death by Gu Wanglan...

But if he didn\'t bring Yunjin, Yino couldn\'t just leave a her alone in the snow-covered mountain valley, could he?

Ever since encountering the cult members last night, Yunjin had become especially clingy to Yino, following him wherever he went.

This left Yino in a dilemma.

The Northern Falling Snow Village was actually not that big. Apart from a secret chamber in the shrine, all the other places had been ransacked by the cult members, leaving no valuable buildings.

Either Yino had to give up the Nine-Colored Deer\'s materials for Yunjin\'s sake and stay in the Northern Snow Mountain to slack off until the mission was over;

Or Yino had to bring Yunjin back to the original plot line for the sake of the Nine-Colored Deer\'s materials.

After much deliberation, Yino finally decided to take a gamble.

After all, if he went to the shrine, he would definitely be able to get the Nine-Colored Deer\'s materials, but Yunjin\'s death wasn\'t a certainty. There was still a lot of room for maneuvering before the end of the first arc of the game! Now, with the cultivation boost from last night\'s sacrifice, Yino wasn\'t that afraid of Jinyue anymore.

He had the confidence to save Yunjin from her fatal ending!

"Senior Jinyue, did you find something good again?"

At the entrance of the shrine, Yino directly called out Jinyue, who was hiding in his blind spot, under the gaze of many disciples.

Behind the crowd, the girl\'s petite body trembled in shock.

More than the frustration of being discovered during her sneak attack, what surprised Jinyue even more was that this time, before she could even open her mouth, Yino had already completely seen through her little scheme!

"How did you know I found a clue?"

Jinyue walked up to him, putting her hands behind her back, pouting with a hint of boredom.

If she were in her fox form right now, she would definitely be wagging her tail nervously!

Yino had already anticipated the following plot development and remained unfazed:

"Your face"

"My face?" The girl blinked her peach blossom eyes and pinched her own little cheek.

"Every time you want to play a prank, your eyes will slightly narrow, and you have a habit of licking your little canine tooth with the tip of your tongue. It\'s like your mischievous thoughts are written all over your face..."

Yino once again bluntly exposed her on the spot.

Instantly, Jinyue became even more unhappy, her face puffed up like a hamster as she stared at Yino with her seductive eyes.

"See, you must be brewing some little scheme again right now."

Yino snorted coldly, his eyes became sharp as if they could pierce through one\'s heart, making Jinyue\'s delicate body tremble slightly.

Before, Yino was still willing to play dumb in front of Jinyue because he didn\'t want to attract too much attention from her.

But now, Yino found that playing dumb was completely useless. Jinyue would still pester him the same way no matter what. Moreover, Jinyue had already witnessed Yino killing the cult members last night.

Rather than continuing this childish game of pretending, Yino felt it was better to confront Jinyue directly.

And the more straightforward Yino was, the more uncomfortable Jinyue became.

After all, for a mischievous witch, having all her little schemes seen through was even more unbearable than being killed!

"Don\'t talk nonsense, I wasn\'t thinking of doing anything bad at all!"

Jinyue crossed her arms in front of her chest, turned her puffy face away, and lightly stomped her foot.

Although she was still acting cute, her expression wasn\'t as sweet as before.

Jinyue handed the compass she had been hiding behind her back to Yino, then smiled meaningfully:

"Yino, look at this thing! Isn\'t it amazing? I just found this compass under the ruins of the shrine-"

"I\'m not looking at it."

Yino recognized the Nine-Colored Compass from the game at a glance, but recalling Yunjin\'s tragic fate in the plot, he decisively averted his gaze, not bothering to pay attention to Jinyue.

At the same time, he pulled the silly-haired girl behind him and walked into the shrine without looking back.

"Uh!!!? That thing..."

Yunjin\'s ahoge stood up straight as she stared intently at the Nine-Colored Compass in Jinyue\'s hands, feeling a bit reluctant to leave even when being pulled away.

But this time, before she could say anything, Yino directly covered her eyes.

"Don\'t listen to her nonsense. It\'s just a broken toy. Let\'s go"

"Oh..."

Yunjin pouted her lips. Although she was still curious about the Nine-Colored Compass, after being scolded by Yino in the morning, Yunjin had become more obedient now. She didn\'t cry or make a fuss, and like a little chick, her body instinctively followed Yino\'s butt, going wherever he went.

"Yino, let me tell you, everyone has been working hard all morning, but they couldn\'t figure out the secret of this compass-"

Jinyue raised her little nose, still confidently telling Yino the background story of the compass. But halfway through her explanation, she was quietly reminded by a disciple beside her. Only then did she open her eyes and realize that Yino had already left with Yunjin. .net

"Hey, you?!"

Jinyue was about to curse but stopped herself, stomping her feet in anger.

More than being angry about being ignored, she was now feeling anxious. She quickly chased after Yino and hooked her arm around his.

The girl stood on tiptoe, trying her best to hold the compass up to Yino\'s face-

"Come on, Yino, just take a look!"

"I\'m not looking." Yino said coldly.

"Hmph! Fine, don\'t look then!"

Jinyue made a face at Yino and turned to Yunjin with a welcoming smile: "How about Sister Yunjin helps everyone take a look?"

"I\'m not looking either."

Yino unexpectedly answered in a fake voice.

"Huh? Huh? Sister Yunjin isn\'t looking either?"

Jinyue was rejected by two people in a row, leaving her a bit dazed for a moment. She had anticipated Yino\'s refusal, but she didn\'t expect Yunjin to be so decisively ruthless too.

But just as Jinyue was stunned, she noticed that Yunjin herself was also looking up at Yino with a surprised gaze.

"Yino! You were imitating Yunjin\'s voice just now, weren\'t you!"

Jinyue finally realized what was going on and gritted her teeth in anger once more.

She walked up to them again, stuffed the compass into the ahoge-haired girl\'s arms, then said with eyes full of expectation: "I heard that Sister Yunjin\'s hometown is right at the foot of this Northern Snow Mountain, and she grew up listening to the legends of the snow village. I believe Sister Yunjin must have unique insights into this magical compass!"

"Right, everyone?"

After a round of awkward flattery, Jinyue didn\'t forget to turn around and rope in the other onlooking disciples. Everyone nodded in agreement, looking at Yunjin with eyes full of anticipation.

Instantly, Yunjin, holding the compass, felt a sense of responsibility from everyone\'s expectations, but she was also a bit at a loss.

She looked at Yino with pleading eyes, wanting to use her knowledge to help everyone decipher this compass, but also afraid of angering Yino and getting scolded again. She was even more afraid that if she didn\'t behave well, Yino would take off his pants when they returned at night...

"Forget it, you can take a look then."

Yino wasn\'t angry, just smiling slightly, having expected this.

Since he had already chosen to come to the Divine Deer Shrine, it was nothing more than an attempt to see if he could shake off Jinyue. But from the moment Jinyue chased after him and forcibly struck up a conversation, Yino could tell that he would have to accompany Jinyue through this plot development today no matter what.

In a sense, it was really like playing a game in his previous life.
