Just Wanting to Live a Good Life, Yet Surpassing the Protagonist – 106 Why is it Him Again?
The man and the fox were discreetly traversing the forest. Ye Yong planned to apply the beast repellent, but Shen Ning was a spirit beast with an exceptionally sensitive sense of smell. Considering the little fox’s feelings, Ye Yong gave up on the idea.
Stealth equipment was also out of the question because if anyone was truly looking for Ye Yong, they would discover him regardless of how low his presence was. Thus, Ye Yong could only buy an unnoticeable fox mask from the system shop and put it on.
It had to be said, with Ye Yong’s white clothes and the white fox mask, coupled with the little white fox following him, he looked like some kind of fox immortal.

They encountered several groups of cultivators on the way, but none of them could sense Ye Yong’s cultivation level. Moreover, Ye Yong exuded a high-end and intimidating aura, so everyone assumed he was some kind of otherworldly expert. They would bow from afar and automatically make way for him, saving Ye Yong a lot of trouble.
It was great being a villain. If it were the protagonist, they would be targeted even if they were wrapped up like a mummy.
However, while people left Ye Yong alone, beasts did not. Just then, a shadow moved on the branches of a tree, slowly approaching Ye Yong.
It was a jade-green venomous snake with the cultivation level of the Crystallization Layer. It was flicking its tongue, and Ye Yong’s back was reflected in its eyes.
Back then, when it was still at the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment, it had suffered at the hands of a human who seemed to have no spiritual power. Fortunately, the other party had a sudden change of heart and let it go. As the saying goes, surviving a great disaster brings good fortune. When it was escaping, it accidentally fell into a crevice and discovered several spirit fruits there. After swallowing them, it fell into a deep sleep. When it woke up, its cultivation level had broken through to the Crystallization Layer.
The venomous snake had just woken up not long ago. When it saw the human in front of it, it recalled the incident from before, and its desire for revenge flared up. Its increased cultivation level gave it great confidence. It did not believe that it would lose to a human again this time.
Blame it on your bad luck for looking like that guy!
The venomous snake launched itself forward, opening its mouth and biting at Ye Yong’s neck.
Shen Ning had a strong sense of danger, but the difference in their cultivation levels was too great. By the time she sensed the approaching danger, it was too late. She could not even utter a word of warning before the venomous snake’s fangs were about to touch Ye Yong’s neck.
“Smack.” However, Ye Yong casually reached out and grabbed the snake’s head.
The venomous snake blinked. Why did this familiar scene feel so déjà vu? It struggled with all its might, but found that its Crystallization cultivation level was unable to break free from a mere mortal.
Emergency plan, activate!
Open mouth, spray venom!
Ye Yong turned its head, and the venom splattered on the ground. Shen Ning saw the floor start to smoke and hurriedly took a few steps back in fright.
The venomous snake instantly regretted it, deeply regretted it. Its regret was mixed with a bit of embarrassment because it was certain that the guy in the fox mask in front of it was the same human from last time.
Otherwise, how could the exact same situation happen twice in a row? Moreover, it was sure that it had slept for a long time. Why did it encounter him again as soon as it woke up? The venomous snake’s tiny brain could not figure it out no matter how hard it thought.
“Why do I feel like I’ve seen you somewhere before?” Ye Yong stared at the venomous snake. The snake did not move, its tongue still sticking out. It did not dare to struggle at all, like a rope being held by Ye Yong.
Of course, if it moved now, it would most likely die. It would be better to pretend to be obedient. Perhaps it could survive like last time.
“Crystallization Layer? You’re quite cunning. With this kind of cultivation level, you can hunt within a thousand-kilometer radius.” Ye Yong chuckled. Because the creatures in this area were generally at the eighth or ninth level of the Foundation Establishment , this snake was clearly bullying the weak.
“But it’s not a bad idea to be cautious. A venomous snake of your size is practically harmless without your venom.” Ye Yong shook it. “Consider yourself lucky. I’m in a good mood today, so I won’t kill you.”
After shaking it, Ye Yong threw it to the ground.
The venomous snake quickly crawled into the grass. It had survived once again.
It looked back at Ye Yong a few times. The venomous snake decided that it would never provoke a guy with no spiritual power again. Then, it disappeared into the grass.
“Master, was it really okay to let it go?” Shen Ning felt that snakes were quite dangerous creatures. “It might harm other creatures.”
“So, if we kill it, other creatures won’t be harmed? In the law of the jungle, the strong prey on the weak. A world without any harm doesn’t exist, unless all creatures are dead.”
“Hmm… That seems to be true.” Shen Ning nodded, half-understanding.

“Miss, this Ye Yong is really kind. If I hadn’t seen him kill so many monsters, I would have thought he was a saint.” The wooden hairpin maid was filled with emotion when she saw Ye Yong let go of the venomous snake that had attacked him. This was not the first time she had praised Ye Yong in the past few days.
“In the secret realm, it’s impossible for him to let go of a monster out of mercy. Otherwise, he would be the one to die. The place you’re in is different, so the things you can do are naturally different. “
“Then, Miss, should we capture him now? If we don’t, he’ll be out of the forest.”
“Don’t use the word ‘capture.’ It sounds terrible. I want to talk to him directly and have a good chat.”
“I hope he doesn’t refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit.” The feather-adorned maid snorted coldly. She seemed to be full of prejudice, but in fact, her attitude had changed a lot compared to before. Otherwise, she would have firmly opposed her Miss contacting and talking to Ye Yong. She would have thought that he should be captured directly.

There were still three thousand meters to go before they reached the outer perimeter of Spirit Mountain. Ye Yong was just about to heave a sigh of relief and say that the journey had been smooth and without any trouble when three women suddenly appeared in front of him.
They covered their faces with veils, and their figures were graceful. The one in the middle, in particular, wore a green dress and had an extraordinary temperament.
Could they be admirers?
