What To Do If The Heroine Escapes From The Book

Chapter 316: Cute Son



Chapter 316: Cute Son

Chu Ge felt both exasperated and amused, but there was still a hint of solemnity in his heart.

What Chu Tiange said was ‘once thought about it,’ but he could tell that Chu Tiange still felt the same way to this day.

This is indeed the most reasonable judgment based on Chu Tiange’s information.

Chu Ge had actually read similar web novels before, and of course, the big bosses always have a bad sense of proportion and allow the protagonist to grow, and when they thought they could reap the rewards, they were overturned by the protagonist instead.

Chu Ge had read them, and presumably, Chu Tiange had also read them, at least in the setting, Chu Tiange was a fan of fantasy and martial arts.

“You want to kill me mainly because of this, right?” Chu Ge shook his head and said with a smile, “So you don’t believe I want you to manage the world, do you?”

“I don’t believe it. It’s just a pipe dream.”

“In that case, shouldn’t you hide your thoughts and silently wait for an opportunity to kill me in the future? By saying it out loud now, aren’t you afraid that I’ll kill you first?”

Chu Tiange calmly replied, “Whether I say it or not, it won’t change the outcome. You’ve been planning for thousands of years, how could you possibly close the net so early and fail in your plans? Of course, you’ll still wait for me to grow… Crossing Tribulation is not the end, I probably have to at least transcend to the Heavenly Realm and become an Immortal, right?”

Chu Ge couldn’t help but laugh, “That’s right. When you put it that way, it sounds quite touching. I am indeed a magnanimous big boss.”

Chu Tiange’s previously upright sitting posture became more relaxed, and he sat casually, saying lazily, “Honestly, when I talk about beating and killing you, in my heart, I feel very close to you… Is it because I am your incarnation? Am I a part of you? So, I don’t really want to think of you as an enemy. I’d rather think of you as…”

Chu Ge said with a straight face, “Call me Dad.”

Chu Tiange hesitated for a moment, unable to say it, and turned his head with some resentment, “…I’d rather think of you as my original self.”

Chu Ge burst into laughter.

It’s really fun, what to do if I don’t want to reveal the truth?

Truly, you are my main character, with a righteous and adorable mindset! It’s not in vain that I’ve doted on you.

Chu Tiange said with frustration, “So, let’s be frank. If one day you really want to devour me, I’ll resist, and whoever wins will depend on our methods. There’s no point in being all secretive and evasive.”

“In doing so, you’re at a disadvantage, you know? I could have been taken by surprise.”

“First, I don’t think you couldn’t have thought of it, otherwise, why would you intensify your observation of me recently?”

“Uh-huh.”

“Second…” Chu Tiange’s gaze finally became a bit sharp. “I’m confident that as long as I advance in my cultivation to a certain degree, I won’t be afraid of you.”

“Hahaha…” Chu Ge laughed so hard it hurt his stomach. “Alright, let’s follow this script.”

“Shall we negotiate?”

“Huh?”

“Don’t arrange my destiny in the future, I’ll elevate myself.”

“I can only promise you for minor matters; for crucial matters, I can’t.”

Chu Tiange fell silent for a moment and whispered, “It’s still some progress.”

“It wasn’t in vain that you took the risk to meet me, right? At least you’ve gained a bit of influence.”

Chu Tiange tilted his head again.

Chu Ge found it really amusing and said, “Hey, if you want to break free from so-called destiny, what’s your plan?”

“None of your business,” Chu Tiange began to rebel. “At the very least, don’t arrange for Xie Yun’er to dangle in front of me, okay?”

Chu Ge: “???”

Wait, something doesn’t seem right here. So you thought I was manipulating your destiny, and you meant it in terms of introducing you to girls? That’s completely off…

“You want to keep me immersed in a tender world, lose the drive to pursue the Great Dao? That’s unnecessary,” Chu Tiange said. “If I progress faster, wouldn’t it also be beneficial for you? You’re the original self, don’t you have confidence in yourself?”

Chu Ge: “…”

“So, what do you say?”

“Um…” Chu Ge asked cautiously, “Why do you think that the way of ruthlessness is the only path to pursuing the great Dao?”

“I didn’t say it’s the only way. But at the very least, having emotional entanglements will certainly weigh you down, and you won’t be focused enough on cultivation. There’s a reason why novels with ruthless characters have become the mainstream today!”

“Is that really what you think?”

“Isn’t that how you feel?” Chu Tiange countered, “As the Heavenly Dao, if you truly wanted it, women in the world would be at your beck and call. Why don’t you take them? Just like the Sect Master of the Cloud Horizon Sect, you’re only incarnated as a disciple, it shouldn’t be difficult for you to have a partner. It seems like you have no interest in matters of gender, but you want to lead me astray.”

Chu Ge: “How the hell could I have written… How did I come up with such a dumbass character for substitution?”

Chu Tiange: “?”

Chu Ge was furious. “You, with your foolish ideas, still want to rebel against your father. Just wait slowly!”

Chu Tiange had an expression of defiance, wanting to argue back, but he forced himself to hold back. He was afraid that if they argued, the other party might try to introduce someone else to him. So he chose to endure a little humiliation in terms of addressing his “father.”

Chu Ge found it amusing.

So, you’re just accepting “father” by default, right?

But Chu Tiange’s thoughts were really interesting. If you considered the idea of a “great power arranging a clone,” Chu Tiange’s nature was like a fragment of a true spirit of a great power growing on Earth and later being incorporated into this world, making it a form of transmigration. In that case, Earth’s memories were his real experiences, which made it easier for him to accept.

Later on, it would be a struggle against destiny, breaking away from the evil origin and becoming independent. It was a great outline for a fantasy novel.

But Chu Ge was well aware that Chu Tiange didn’t have this nature; he was simply a character he had created in his novel.

The previous confusion once again resurfaced in his mind. Chu Tiange was entirely a creation of fiction. So, where did he acquire knowledge that was beyond the scope of his own creation? Who gave it to him? Could he just freely bestow omniscience and omnipotence?

In theory, that was not possible.

A protagonist’s abilities could surpass the author’s limits, and certain specific knowledge could also be included, given that the author could research on the internet. However, in a complete knowledge system, it’s impossible for the protagonist’s knowledge to surpass the author’s limits. The author doesn’t possess that knowledge, and trying to write about it would result in numerous inconsistencies, which wouldn’t convince readers and wouldn’t be genuine.

Given Chu Tiange’s previous portrayal as a native character with minimal display of modern knowledge, his actual knowledge isn’t as extensive as he imagines. His memories are fragmented and fabricated. He only thinks of an airplane when discussing flying treasures and modern songs when talking about immortal music. His understanding of cultivation might be based on vague impressions of web novels, but he lacks a complete knowledge system.

This is more in line with logic.

How do we confirm this? Should we test him with a couple of math problems?

Chu Ge suddenly extended his hand, creating eight characters in the air. “Can you read this?”

Chu Tiange focused and read the characters clearly, “Snowflakes flutter, north wind howls.”

Chu Ge stared at him.

Chu Tiange scratched his head. “What? Is it difficult to read these eight characters, or is it some profound meaning?”

Chu Ge suddenly spoke in a strange tone, “My lady~”

Chu Tiange was startled and moved backward, asking, “What are you doing?”

“It’s nothing,” Chu Ge patted his shoulder. “Take good care of yourself, become an Immortal soon. Dad will be waiting for you.”

With that said, without waiting for Chu Tiange to react, he disappeared in a puff of smoke and went to see Qiuqiu.

Since he was here, he might as well see his wife after checking on his son.

The son was quite cute, not bad.

“Master, there was an urgent report from the Wind-Capturing Hall just now!” Xuan Ji was reporting to Qiu Wuji. “An hour ago, a Nine-headed Serpant launched a night attack on Yunxiao City but were repelled in a blood-soaked battle with Chu Tiange.”

Qiu Wuji put away the book in her hand, her brows slightly furrowing. “This shouldn’t be happening… Yunxiao City isn’t easy to attack. Even if Xie Jiuxiao is absent, it’s not an easy target. They won’t stand a chance once Xie Jiuxiao returns. They must have some other motives. Do you have any other news?”

Xuan Ji said, “There is no other news.”

Qiu Wuji nodded. “Previously, Xie Jiuxiao could only monitor their arrival in the Divine Continent. After entering, it’s challenging to track their movements, which led them to operate in secret. We’ve been relatively passive. This time, no matter what their purpose is, it’s a reckless move, and Xie Jiuxiao will likely track the movements of that Nine-headed Serpant. This will allow us to transition from a passive to an active stance… It’s really annoying. What kind of Heavenly Dao is this, what a mess…”

Xuan Ji stared straight at her.

Qiu Wuji maintained a serious expression. “Why are you looking at me with that expression? What’s wrong with cursing the Heavenly Dao? Even if it’s the Heavenly Dao, it’s incarnation is still present here as my disciple. If I can’t deal with the Heavenly Dao, can I not discipline my disciple? Next time I see him, I’ll have to punish him…”

“Can you punish me to death by suffocation instead?” Chu Ge’s voice suddenly sounded right beside them, and his face appeared from behind Qiu Wuji’s shoulder. “What good book are you reading? Show me… oh, is it Ximen Qing…hehe.”

Xuan Ji cautiously watched the expression on the Sect Master’s face and gradually stepped back.

Her ever-changing facial colors, from green to red to white, were truly fascinating. It felt like the junior martial uncle would have a very miserable end…

((TL: “Snowflakes drifting, the north wind howling.” and “My lady~” are the real-world cultural references Chu Ge uses to make sure Chu Tiange doesn’t recognize them and confirm his theory. Ximen Qing is a character in the book Jin Ping Mei))
