In the bedroom…

After reading the content of the weekly report, Ling Yi closed the forum.

It was still early, and the sun had just risen from the eastern horizon.

He sat at the desk and saw that his bed had been occupied by Ling ‘Er. He couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows.

Without saying anything, he turned around and walked out of the room.

In the hall, Yunji and Xia Wanqing were chatting as if this was their home.

Seeing Ling Yi come down alone, Yunji asked curiously, “Where’s Shurou?”

“Still resting,”

“Eh?”

Yunji sized Ling Yi up with a face full of surprise. She said very boldly, “Shouldn’t you be the one lying down? How come she’s the one who’s resting?”

“Because I’m stronger.”

“What about Ling ‘Er?” Xia Wanqing asked.

She was now wearing a thin black dress, and her snow-white jade body was faintly visible under the dress.

Ling Yi shrugged. “In order to improve their compatibility, the two of them are now together all day. They use the same toothbrush and sleep in the same bed. They never separate 24 hours a day.”

Hearing this, Yunji and Xia Wanqing looked at each other and blushed slightly.

“Then I’ll go make you breakfast.” Xia Wanqing said as she got up and went into the kitchen.

After she left, Yunji grinned at Ling Yi.

She glanced in the direction of the kitchen, got up, and sat down beside him. She put her arm on his shoulder and said in a sweet and soft voice, “Little brother, do you want to come?”

As she said that, she used her proud upper body to knock against her.

Ling Yi was a little dazzled. He waved his hands and said, “No, no, I want to rest for a while.”

Yunji pursed her red lips and looked a little disappointed.

However, she quickly composed herself and breathed out a sweet fragrance at him. “You can find me anytime~ You have my permanent summoning card.”

“… Sh*t… If you keep teasing me like this, I’ll really summon you.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Yunji covered her mouth and giggled, her whole body filled with joy.

“Oh, that’s right.”

Ling Yi’s expression became serious as he got down to business. “I’m going to the great world to fight a Beast King in the next few days. Do you want to come with me?”

“Of course, you’re the only man Wanqing and I have decided on. What are we going to do if you die?” Yunji glared at him with her beautiful golden eyes.

At the thought of going to the dangerous great world, she couldn’t help but look serious. “Which Beast King? I’ll go make some preparations.”

“Yes…”



“It’s a pity that one of them ran away.”

In the Divine Union’s Firefly branch, the Phoenix Sword Saint, Nangong Li, sat in her temporary office and sighed helplessly as she read the battle report from the day before.

The day before yesterday, Sun Wei, who went undercover in Sacred Gate, finally became the boss of the group, so she began to take action to catch them one by one.

Everyone had been caught, except for the former boss of the organization, Liu Chongbai.

She sighed. “How can there be an organization’s boss who is so afraid of death?”

Nangong Li furrowed her brows, her crimson eyes filled with deep confusion.

Sun Wei and the other members of the Phoenix team were sitting on the wooden chairs at the side. When they heard their leader mention this, they suddenly laughed. “That Liu Chongbai is really afraid of death. As soon as we appeared, he immediately used smoke bombs, interference balls, doppelganger talismans, and so on. He’s very skilled.”

“I don’t think he’s ready for a fight, but for an escape…”

The few of them shook their heads helplessly. Nangong Li then remembered the task that Tong Wei gave her—

Investigate the owner of the mysterious voice.

They had thought it would be a very simple matter, but two days had passed and they still had not found a single clue.

This made her, who had always been quick and energetic, feel particularly uncomfortable.

‘Forget it. I’ll let the boy and girl groups in the city perform these few days and see if that mysterious voice will appear again.’

Nangong Li sighed in a low voice and sent out all the members of the team.

When she was the only one left in the office, she looked at the branch computer in front of her and decided to scroll through the player list out of boredom.

She might even be able to find some clues from the list.

As the captain of the Divine Union headquarters, she had extremely high authority, which included checking the player list.

When she logged in with her own account and opened the list of players in Qianjiang City, she was dazed by the dense list of names.

She was stunned for a while before she regained her spirits and entered the words “Yunji” in the search box with a smile on her face.

[No user with this name]

‘Ah, right. Yunji isn’t a player from Qianjiang City.’

She felt a little regretful that she couldn’t read the information about her “old rival”.

She thought for a moment, and her eyes suddenly lit up.

“That’s right!”

‘Ling Yi and Yunji seem to have an unclear relationship. I should investigate him.’

As she said that, her fingers quickly typed in the words ‘Ling Yi’ in the search bar.

There could only be one result.

[No. 12638 — Ling Yi]

[Last time of registration: May 31st.]

[Last registered level: 1]

[Player number: 200666-00033]

[ID number:…]

[10 Level Gift Bag: yet to receive property prices]

“What?”

Nangong Li was stunned for a moment, then blinked and looked again.

“What? This, this, this… Ling Yi is a new player in June?”

This time, she looked at his player number in detail.

200666 meant that this was a player from June, year 20, District 66. 00033 meant that he was 33 in this area.

“2006… 66!? He’s actually a player from District 66!”

This time, Nangong Li was really surprised. In an instant, it was as if a flash of light had appeared in her mind!

She seemed to have grasped something, but she still felt that she was missing something.

“Wait, wait, wait, let me organize it carefully.”

She quickly tore a page from her notebook and wrote down “Ling Yi”, “66th District of June”, “Statue function discovered in the secret dungeon”, “dual-element Spirit Blade”, and “Yunji”.

After frowning for a long time, she gradually remembered the woman she had seen by Yunji’s side.

She then wrote down the name “Xia Wanqing.”

As soon as she wrote Xia Wanqing, she couldn’t help but think of 01, the only man who could “see” Xia Wanqing. She simply wrote “01” next to Xia Wanqing’s name.

When she finished writing these names and looked at them again, her eyes widened.

“Don’t… Don’t tell me…”

Those red eyes kept moving back and forth between the words “Ling Yi” and “01.”

“Ling Yi, 01, Ling Yi, 01, Ling Yi, 01, this…”

Nangong Li’s forehead broke out in a thin layer of sweat as she kept repeating the two names.

Two players with the same sounding name, Xia Wanqing who lived next door, a player from District 66…

The fact that he had a Support Skill proved that he was above level 10, yet he had not come to the Divine Union to receive his level reward…

The more Nangong Li thought about it, the more she was sweating.

‘If he really is 01… Then, many of the abnormalities can be explained.’

How did Ling Yi know about the statue’s function?

How did he know that Sacred Gate would plant a bomb in building 15 in Spring River Gardens?

Ever since the event started, one or two Bosses would be killed by others every time they appeared. However, in the entire city, other than her team, there should be no other player who could kill a boss in such a short time.

Where did this mysterious strong person come from?
