Chapter 359: Letter from the Galle Pirates!
Climbing out of the game pod, Li Xiang yawned.
"I played for a long time again."
Since arriving in the Dafen Empire, the game content every day has been extremely fulfilling, with endless things to do.
It would be great if the game could continue like this forever.
Unfortunately...
After knowing that the game might descend upon reality, Li Xiang couldn't relax at all.
As of today, the game has been open for half a year, and the overall strength of the players has been steadily improving.
However, the advancement of the game World is still in its initial stages.
Players have absolutely no understanding of many things in the game World.
Once the game suddenly descends, it will be a huge blow to the entire Blue Star World.
Beep!
The door opened.
Lu Qingshui and Wang Zhiyan appeared, carrying supermarket shopping bags.
Li Xiang immediately got up to help carry things, "You came so early, thank you for your hard work."
Lu Qingshui handed the bags to Li Xiang, "I went for a morning run and stopped by the supermarket."
After speaking, she looked at Li Xiang, "You shouldn't spend your entire day just playing games and sleeping. You need to exercise too."
Li Xiang nodded repeatedly, "Got it, got it."
Exercise...
From childhood to adulthood, Li Xiang has always been terrible at sports...
Beside them, Wang Zhiyan silently carried the groceries into the kitchen.
Lu Qingshui leaned into Li Xiang's ear and whispered, "Zhiyan knows everything now. I'll leave the rest to you. Don't hurt the little girl's self-esteem."
Li Xiang nodded and walked into the kitchen.
"Zhiyan."
Wang Zhiyan's body trembled, she turned to look at Li Xiang, then glanced outside at Lu Qingshui who was clearing the dining table, and smiled, "I'm not that fragile!
As Qingshui said, the game will descend upon the World in a while, and there will be great danger then. My current mission is to improve myself well, so I can save more people when the time comes!"
Li Xiang nodded, "Our Gods Guild will become the strongest Guild, and also the Guardian of Humanity!"
"Mhm~"
The slight awkwardness was resolved, and the three of them enjoyed a harmonious breakfast.
After the meal, Lu Qingshui gave some pointers regarding Li Xiang's current achievements in the Dafen Empire.
"Li Xiang, you've done too much in the Dafen Empire using the ID Pumpkin, even triggering World broadcasts. This isn't friendly to the ID 'Qu Ming'. There have already been some unfavorable voices in the domestic server regions."
Li Xiang nodded, "I understand. For the next period, the ID Pumpkin will go quiet, and the ID Qu Ming will reappear."
"Mhm... The search for the item that allows free teleportation between two places, which we discussed earlier, is nearing its end. It should be found in the next couple of days, and I'll send it to you then."
"Also, let's go to the company today. We've hired quite a few people now, and the departments are well-established. Everyone needs to meet the company's big BOSS."
Going to the company...
Li Xiang yawned.
To be honest, he wasn't very interested.
With Lu Qingshui there, he didn't need to worry about the company's management at all. He wasn't cut out for that anyway.
But... just showing his face was fine.
"Alright."
"Then I'll inform Yunfeng. Let's set the time for 2:30 PM."
"Okay."
After confirming the meeting time, Wang Zhiyan returned to the company, leaving Li Xiang and Lu Qingshui.
"Give me a hug, I haven't seen you all day, I missed you terribly."
Saying this, Li Xiang pulled Lu Qingshui into his arms.
Lu Qingshui looked at Li Xiang, her lips lightly touching his, "I really can't do anything about you~"
"Did you contract the Arrogant Demon?"
"It went very smoothly, and I also gained a new Divine-grade ability. Its effect is very strong, it's..."
After listening, Lu Qingshui exerted a little force and pushed Li Xiang onto the sofa, "You're really amazing~"
Li Xiang laughed heartily, "There's something even more amazing, want to try it?"
...
In the afternoon, Li Xiang woke up first. Looking at Lu Qingshui in his arms, who was like a cat, a smile played on his lips, and his fingers stroked her skin.
Feeling the touch, Lu Qingshui slightly opened her eyes, glanced at Li Xiang, and buried her head in his chest, "You bad guy~ wanting this in broad daylight~"
"Haha..."
...
Company.
The largest conference room.
Li Xiang sat upright in the main seat. Besides Lu Qingshui and Wang Zhiyan on both sides, some newly promoted company executives sat in slightly rear positions.
"First of all, thank you all for joining our company. Some of you are meeting me for the first time, so let me introduce myself. My name is Li Xiang. This name may not be familiar to everyone, but an ID in 'myth' will be more familiar to you: Qu Ge Mingzi Hao Nan, that's my game ID."
Although the executives present already knew, they were still surprised when Li Xiang stated it himself.
"Many people have guessed this, but not many know this information for sure. Therefore, please continue to keep it confidential."
"......"
The meeting lasted for over two hours. Except for the beginning, which was led by Li Xiang, the rest was conducted by Lu Qingshui, Liu Yunfeng, and others, while Li Xiang watched from the side.
Although he really wanted to leave, under Lu Qingshui's meaningful look, he still sat obediently.
After the meeting adjourned, everyone left one after another, until only Lu Qingshui and Li Xiang remained.
"By not letting you leave, are you complaining about me in your heart~"
"How could I complain about my dear wife~"
Hearing the words 'dear wife', Lu Qingshui's pretty face instantly turned red. She quickly looked outside, and only when she saw no one was paying attention did she let out a sigh of relief, "Li Xiang! This is the company, be careful..."
Li Xiang said 'Oh' and crossed his legs, "It seems my dear wife is quite dissatisfied with her husband~"
Lu Qingshui looked at Li Xiang helplessly, took two steps forward, bent down, and kissed Li Xiang on the lips, "Alright~ let's go."
"Hehe~"
Under the gaze of the entire company, Lu Qingshui hooked her arm through Li Xiang's and left the company.
"Hiss... What's the relationship between the CEO and the Chairman?"
"You can't tell? It's clearly a romantic relationship, isn't it? Our Chairman isn't married."
"I'm so envious!"
"What are you envious of?! The CEO and the Chairman are a perfect match, a match made in heaven. Without the Chairman, there would be no birth of the Gods Guild, and without the CEO, there would be no rise of the Gods Guild!"
"That's exactly why I'm envious..."
Wang Zhiyan listened to her colleagues' words next to her, turned her head, and stared blankly out the window.
...
After spending the afternoon together, dropping Lu Qingshui back at her apartment and getting a free meal, Li Xiang reluctantly left.
After returning home, Li Xiang entered the game immediately.
...
Online, Heaven's Gift Guild Residence.
Li Xiang had just flexed his wrists when a Guild player came in.
"Big Sister, an NPC just delivered a letter, saying it's for you."
Li Xiang took the letter and saw a skull symbol on it.
This is the symbol of the 'Galle Pirates'!
"I see, thank you."
Opening the letter, after Li Xiang read it, a quest prompt appeared.
