Zi Cheng, you dont have to go with her. Hans spoke up as soon as he heard Zi Chengs words.

Yeah youre you and shes her. We wont think of you any differently because of your relations.h.i.+p with her. Gino added in anxiously when he heard what Zi Cheng said.

Both felt that Zi Cheng was a gentle and considerate girl and they were rather fond of her. She had a soothing personality that made those around her feel very relaxed.

Im sorry, but I wont feel at ease if I let Yifu go on her own. She and I can take care of each other if we leave together. Although Zi Cheng spoke softly it was clear from her voice that she was firm in her refusal to leave the group.

Xiao Cheng Tears glistened in Yifus eyes as she looked toward Zi Cheng.

She had endured so much hostility and alienation from the group, but Zi Cheng was still her friend. Although it filled her with happiness that Zi Cheng would be willing to leave the group with her, she felt a tiny bit of guilt as well. To think she had just cursed Zi Cheng out in her heart for not being a loyal friend.

Zi Cheng, you sure you want to go with her? Shes a very troublesome person. Youll have to make sure to take extra care to be safe. Xi didnt speak very well of Yifu, but it was obvious from her words that she was concerned about Zi Cheng. Just about everyone in the group felt that Zi Cheng was a wonderful and kind-hearted girl. How was it possible to not like her? Therefore just about everyone in the group was concerned about her well-being.

Yeah Zi Cheng. Dont leave. Everyone here likes you. Feng Wu, you say something too. Ai Lin glanced at Zi Cheng with a worried expression on her face. She seemed to be genuinely concerned.

In fact Ai Lin was just trying to use Feng Wu to egg Yifu on. She knew Yifu hated Feng Wu the most out of anyone in the group. She was sure Yifu wouldnt be able to keep her mouth shut if Feng Wu started talking. Ai Lin was looking forward to Yifu making a ruckus and possibly involving Zi Cheng in more drama. The more drama there was the more likely everyone would start to dislike Zi Cheng as well – guilty by a.s.sociation.

Ai Lin was determined to rob Zi Cheng of all her good cards. There was no way the two of them could ever become friends, so might as well. She had to make as much trouble for the female protagonist as she could.

A few of the people there looked at Ai Lin weirdly when they heard her, wondering if she was up to something. The ever quiet Feng Wu was obviously a poor choice to pick. To pick Feng Wu…did Ai Lin really want Zi Cheng to stay or did she actually want her to leave?

Say what? Feng Wu looked at Ai Lin. Was she supposed to say something?

Say what? Well say something to convince Zi Cheng to stay of course! Ai Lin had to fight really hard not to roll her eyes. Can this girl really be that dumb or was she just faking it? However Ai Lin had to endure it if she wanted her plan to work. She absolutely could not roll her eyes.

Say something to persuade Zi Cheng. But she couldn’t think of anything Feng Wu was really confused. Left with nothing to say she could only say the truth. I have nothing to say.

Huh? Was she doing this on purpose? Ai Lin was really skeptical and even Zi Cheng began to wonder that perhaps she had misread Feng Wu. Feng Wu had seemed like a pure-hearted girl, but her behavior right now seemed to suggest that she wanted Zi Cheng to leave with Yifu. Was this Feng Wus true face?

The others in the group also wondered the same thing. They looked on with with a confused and fascinated expression. Was Feng Wu being deliberate or was she really that simple?

Melis finally spoke up voicing what everyone was thinking. Zi Cheng, you should stay. Going with Yifu would be dangerous.

Yifu had a nasty temper and no one liked her. She was just too troublesome to deal with. Melis didnt want to see someone as beautiful, gentle, and tender as Zi Cheng be dragged down by someone as insensible as Yifu.

Zi Cheng just smiled at his words not paying it any mind. Ive made my decision. I will leave with Yifu. It shouldnt take much more walking to get out of the woods. As long as were careful we should be able to get to the neutral city with the blue walls.

Left with no choice the group could only helplessly watch as Zi Cheng left with Yifu. Contrary to what everyone expected Yifu knew when to shut up. In silence she followed behind Zi Cheng trying not to cause any more trouble for the only person who supported her in the group.

Zi Cheng is too kind. That Yifu just does whatever she wants, acting like some high and mighty Young Miss. To cause so much trouble for others like that. Zi Cheng even left with her. Xi sighed sorrowfully deeply moved by Zi Chengs selflessness.

I know! Zi Cheng is such a good girl! Shes in the middle of the a.s.sessment but yet shes still so concerned about Yifus safety. Thinking about how incredibly kind-hearted Zi Cheng was made Hans even more upset with Yifu.

Although the others didnt say anything they all felt that Zi Cheng was a really good and kind-hearted girl. She had only been friends with Yifu for two days but was already taking such good care of her.[notes](

There were only two people who didnt feel this way. One was naturally Ai Lin. There was no way the two would ever get along since Zi Cheng was fated to be Ai Lins downfall.

Zi Cheng hadnt walked very far with Yifu when several bings echoed in her ear.

*bing* Yifus favorability rating: plus 30 points

*bing* Ginos favorability rating: plus 20 points

*bing* Xis favorability rating: plus 10 points

*bing* Hans favorability rating: plus 20 points

*bing* Melis favorability rating: plus 10 points

*bing* Omans favorability rating: plus 10 points

*bing* Peis favorability rating: plus 10 points

*bing* Kyles favorability rating: plus 10 points

Each successive bing indicated her favorability rating with people in the world, it was essentially her gold finger, cheat system if you will. The system allowed her to exchange her favorability points for items and other goods such as legendary magic staves and sacred level magic spells. She could even purchase skill upgrades if she earned enough points.

Of course those amazing items were beyond her reach right now, but if she kept boosting her popularity she had no doubt she would eventually be able to do an exchange. As it was Zi Cheng was really pleased with the points she earned today.

Her innate talent was so high because she drank a magic potion. Just one dose of it was enough to raise her innate talent to the twelfth level. Zi Cheng was really glad that her former host was a small unimportant person who never had her skills tested. Otherwise such a large jump in skill would have courted disaster making people suspicious of her.
