Liu Yuan didn't know Ling Yu. After all, the game map of "Shangyang" was extremely vast, and the number of NPCs in the forces was extremely large. There were countless characters who did not participate in the main storyline.
Since its establishment, Yuxu Taoism has arranged seniority according to "Six Directions are as natural as heaven, and the spirits shine by themselves". This seniority also has a very cold joke, because in the background introduction of Yuxu Taoism, the founder's first disciple... has the Taoist name Liuyi. In addition, Yuxu's good-looking appearance attracted too many players, and the quality also plummeted, so sometimes Yuxu Taoism is also called a kindergarten.
But this is all the players' business. Having said that, among the NPCs, there are many disciples with the word "Ling" in the current era. Ling Yao is the eldest sister, and the rest of them are her junior brothers and sisters.
It was impossible for Liu Yuan to know them all, but he had heard of the character Lingyu.
Lingyu is the fifth disciple accepted by Lingyao's master Sheng'e. He is the type of person who is always away from home to gain experience. His whereabouts are uncertain and he is rarely seen inside the sect.
To put it simply, this kind of character is a person who can only appear in a conversation that suddenly pops up in the mouth of other nameless NPCs passing by.
Like "We have a total of five true disciples in Yuxu Danqing Palace, the eldest sister Lingyao, the second brother Lingdeng... the fifth sister Lingyu", "Senior sister Lingyu hasn't come back for a long time, and I haven't seen her recently", "This girl Lingyu, alas" and then there is no follow-up.
This kind of.
But Liu Yuan did not expect that after traveling through time, he would meet Ling Yu in Yuelai Inn in Wanjian City.
Hu Jiuniang introduced the people in the room and left, but before leaving, she secretly winked at Liu Yuan and drew the number "three" on the palm of his hand.
Liu Yuan calmly closed his palm. The touch of the fox demon's warm fingertips across his palm still left a faint residue, itchy, and even a hint of fragrance, which was quite alluring.
Is this vixen planning to follow the example of Bodhi Patriarch and make an appointment to meet in the middle of the night?
Are you kidding? Liu Yuan has no idea about this kind of dirty thing that seems to break the pure friendship...
Can't refuse, okay?
Liu Yuan turned his eyes away from Hu Jiuniang's graceful back and sighed in his heart: "Okay, okay, even if I want to do something else, it's impossible now. Shen Sifan is still chasing me, and from Cui Ting's words, it seems that he has already arrived in Wanjian City. It's better not to commit suicide at this time... But Hu Jiuniang must not be doing this for nothing. Maybe she really has something important to talk to me about. I still have to go and check it out."
Gu Chang, who was standing by, was looking at this with great confusion in his little head - is this my master's wife? How many master's wives do I have?
Liu Yuan turned around, pulled Gu Chang in, put on his best newbie smile, and bowed to the five people in the room: "I am Jiang Feng, a casual cultivator without any sect or school. I am yearning for the Guanchao Tingjian Conference, and I brought my sister to Wanjian City to broaden my horizons. My cultivation is shallow, so I hope you can take care of me."
"You're welcome. It's fate that we met by chance. We'll have to live together for a few days, so of course we have to be considerate of each other." The first person to answer was a tall young man in a strong suit. He had a broad heavy sword behind him, and he was tall and dignified, with a masculine appearance. His thick black eyebrows made him look very energetic.
He raised his hand and touched his shiny bald head, then gave Liu Yuan a friendly smile, "My name is Lu Yu, and I'm from Xuantian Sect."
Liu Yuan stood up and smiled back: "Jiu Niang has already introduced a few of them to me just now."
The woman in green standing by the window and gazing into the distance is Wei Feiluan from the Lihuo Sect. She is tall and beautiful, but she purses her lips and looks serious, giving people a cold feeling, which is not in line with the feeling of the Lihuo Sect.
The person sitting on the wooden bed with his eyes closed in meditation was Yan Guanlin from Mount Xumi. He looked no more than fifteen or sixteen years old, with a delicate appearance, but with a hint of arrogance in his expression. To Liu Yuan, he felt a bit like Yue Longzhang, who was killed by him with a sword not long after he traveled through time.
The man drinking tea was a handsome... man, or as Liu Yuan thought in his mind, a sissy, with delicate features, and looked only slightly worse than Ning Xiangrong. His name was also quite feminine, Murong Lian.
I also have an impression of this NPC Liu Yuan. He is a character in the adventure game Yuelai Inn, and is ranked as the second most handsome person in the game by a large number of players who know men well.
By the way, the first one is You Su, and the third one is Ning Xiangrong.
Under normal circumstances, Ning Xiangrong's dreamy beauty, which was like flowers in the mirror and moon in the water, would definitely be second, but this character was a man, so he was instantly cheered up.
However, this character rarely appears in the plot, and the encounter character is not included in the guide.
There is also Lingyu from the Yuxu Taoist sect. A woman in a Taoist robe was sitting on a chair. She had been wiping her sword with her head down. After Liu Yuan came in, she stopped and looked at him curiously.
The cultivation base of several people is around the seventh or eighth stage of foundation building, while Ling Yu has already formed a pill.
"Oh... that's great." Lu Yu looked around and pointed at the two beds inside. "You and your sister, um, and your cat can rest there. This inn is supervised by the guards in Wanjian City. You don't have to worry about anything going wrong while you're practicing."
Of course Liu Yuan knew that in Wanjian City, to put it in an exaggerated way, there was a sentry every five steps and a guard every ten steps. Especially now that it was the Jiange Conference, many Jiange disciples came to help maintain law and order, and the crime rate dropped sharply.
He said thank you and walked over with Gu Chang.
Lingyu suddenly asked, "Do you know the boss lady?"
Liu Yuan just put the hammer on the bed, was stunned for a moment, turned around and nodded: "She knows me, she and I are friends."
"Tsk." Yan Guanlin, who was meditating with his eyes closed, suddenly opened one eye and showed a hint of mockery: "The proprietress of this Yuelai Inn is a fox demon at the Nascent Soul stage, and you are a Foundation Establishment stage..."
Lingyu glanced at him and said, "Just now, the boss lady came here holding his hand."
It's not surprising to know that her perception ability is much higher than others.
Yan Guanlin's laughter came to an abrupt end, his face stiffened, and anger flashed in his eyes, but when he thought of Lingyu's identity and cultivation, he had to hold it back. He snorted coldly and continued to close his eyes as if nothing had happened. He thought that the person who was held by the hand by the vixen might not be a friend, and it might even be a cauldron used for cultivation.
The others were very surprised and looked up to Liu Yuan. Even though he was just a casual cultivator, being friends with a big demon in the Nascent Soul stage was not an easy task at all.
But that's it.
There are quite a few people in their sects who are in the Nascent Soul stage, and they themselves are all chosen ones by heaven. The seniors in the Nascent Soul stage need to be respected, but they should not be feared.
Liu Yuan picked up the hammer and put it on his lap, smiling and said, "Master Lingyu asked me this question, is there something you want to ask the boss lady?"
Lingyu nodded, her eyes lingering on Chui Chui's soft white fur and his cute expression with his eyes narrowed in comfort. She hummed absentmindedly, hesitated for a moment, tried her best not to stare at him, and said, "It's nothing serious, you can rest first."
This Lingyu...could he be obsessed with plush toys?
Chapter 95: Midnight
Judging from the glowing eyes, I'm afraid he's a plush lover.
Such a guess flashed through Liu Yuan's mind, but since the other party chose not to say it, he couldn't just go up and ask if the other party was a plush lover or something like that.
Anyway, since the other party is hesitant and his eyes seem to be reluctant to leave, he will definitely come over. Just wait.
Liu Yuan has always been very accurate in grasping the details of this kind of emotional changes. Anyway, he definitely cannot develop this fifth apprentice sister, otherwise Ling Yao...
That’s not right. Ling Yao is virtuous, generous and not jealous. Why did he subconsciously choose to avoid her?
Liu Yuan fell into deep thought and paused while making his bed.
After thinking about it, maybe I was traumatized by the attack from Vihara...
Apart from the fact that the reason for his time travel was suspected to be sudden death due to staying up late, that was the closest time he had ever been to death in his life. The knife had already been inserted into his heart, and the pain was very real. He almost thought he was going to become one of the fastest time travelers to die.
Speaking of the knife, the knife is still safely in his heart, and he suddenly felt a little cold.
Liu Yuan paused, took a long sigh, and told Gu Chang to continue practicing and strive to break through the foundation building stage within a month. This kid is truly extremely talented and is worthy of being the final BOSS in the future. Relying solely on his talent, he is about to catch up with Liu Yuan, who is using cheats and double experience scrolls.
He also allocated a place for Chui Chui to sleep.
Although Chui Chui has never changed his ways and has tried to resist many times, this guy has transformed into a cat and cannot resist acting cute or coquettish.
I don’t know if Lingyu will return to Yuxu Dao Sect after attending the conference. If she does, it would be convenient for her to go...
It was almost evening now, and from the windows on the second floor of the inn, one could see that the streets outside were still bustling and lively.
Liu Yuan looked at the outline of Wanjian City, which was a dark silhouette under the setting sun, and sighed at the scenery that was a hundred times more spectacular than in the game. He hated himself for not bringing his phone with him, otherwise it would have been great to take a picture...
Then Liu Yuan remembered that he still had the photo stone, which in the game was the system's built-in shooting and video recording function. He took it out and cast a spell while thinking that since there was a way to record videos, it seemed that there were other functions that could be used.
A few people behind him started chatting idly, and the main content was still about the Watching the Tide and Listening to the Sword Conference.
Lu Yu looked out the window and sighed: "There are many more people attending the conference this time than before..."
"Have you participated in the last session?" Yan Guanlin raised his eyebrows. "Watching the Tide and Listening to the Sword is a competition held every ten years. Since you are participating in the competition, you should be no more than twenty years old now. You came to participate in the Watching the Tide and Listening to the Sword Competition when you were seven or eight years old?"
Lu Yu touched his bald head and said, "I came here with my senior brothers and sisters at that time. Is that not okay? I just want to broaden my horizons. There is no need for any threshold. I didn't say that I came here on my own."
Yan Guanlin: "...Okay, but please make it clearer next time."
He gritted his teeth faintly.
"Oh." Lu Yu nodded confusedly.
Liu Yuan wanted to laugh when he heard this. Yan Guanlin was more suitable to be called a nitpicker than Cui Ting, and he was the kind of nitpicker with a special sense of superiority. The most important thing was that he had been argued back twice so far.
Murong Lian suddenly said, "It's because the disciple of the Sword Pavilion Master has taken action. In other words, the winner of this sword competition will have the opportunity to obtain the new sword he made."
His voice is also neutral and he speaks slowly, giving people a gentle feeling.
That's right. The final reward of this copy is a purple-quality longsword. In the version at that time, a reward of this level was enough to attract many players.
Anyway, it caused a stir at that time.
This is true for players, not to mention NPCs.
"Alas, I heard that many disciples from major sects will come this time. Even those in the Jindan stage like Taoist Lingyu will participate. It may be difficult to get into the top 20." Lu Yu frowned.
Ling Yu said, "Ruan Yishan from Gujiu Peak and Cen Lu from Guiyuan Sect are the only two who have reached the Jindan stage so far. It won't be very difficult for you to reach the top 20 for now."
Her opponent was not anyone present, so even though her tone was condescending, she did have the ability to give advice, so everyone accepted it by default.
Yan Guanlin snorted coldly: "The top 20 is nothing. If I don't make the top five, my trip here will be in vain!"
Wei Feiluan frowned and said, "I heard that the judges this time include Cui Ting from the Heart Sword School and Qinglian Jianzi from the Taiqing Pavilion?"
Liu Yuan's heart skipped a beat.
"Master Cui seems to have given a clear response that he will come, but Qinglian Jianzi seems to have not agreed yet?"
"No, but I heard that after the battle between Qinglian Jianzi and Cui Ting, he seemed to be looking for someone and came back to Wanjian City."
"Speaking of which, why did Qinglian Jianzi travel thousands of miles to the southeast with such a fierce momentum?"
"Who knows... But I heard that it was for one person." Lu Yu said mysteriously, lowering his voice: "And it was a man."
I didn't expect this guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes to be so gossipy.
Yan Guanlin was skeptical: "Is this true? Shouldn't the Qinglian Swordsmen of Taiqing Pavilion be born alone and keep to themselves? You over there, aren't you from an aristocratic family? You have a lot of connections, is that true?"
Murong Lian hesitated for a moment and said, "As far as I know, it was indeed for a man... but this is ultimately someone else's private matter, so it's better not to make any comments."
Wei Feiluan said coldly, "It's none of your business. There's no point in saying more. Let's just focus on the Mingjian Conference."
We should also mention the Lihuo Sect here. This sect used to be an evil sect called the Lihuo Sect.
Later it became a formal sect. At the beginning, the purpose of this sect was to kill lovers. They believed that all love in the world was a sin. The people in the sect wore black robes and held sickles in their hands. On fixed days, they would kill lovers as a sacrifice to the sky.
Although they were later purified and transformed by the righteous path, they still retained their traditional hostility towards love.
Among the players, there was a guild called [FFF Group Shangyang Branch], which only recruited players from the Fire Gate, and used fire spells to sanction player couples. Later, there were large-scale conflicts and verbal battles between them and the strategy party players. The reason was somewhat related to Liu Yuan... because of the card showing.
The mastermind behind the scenes, Liu Yuan, silently withdrew his gaze.
I didn’t expect the rumor to have spread to this extent, but fortunately the man’s name was not mentioned, otherwise he probably wouldn’t be able to use his own identity in the future.
Liu Yuan did not participate in the conversation. He was considering whether he should go find Duan Lanruo.
Ye Ci Ke came here to have an appointment with the City Lord's Mansion, so he must be still in the City Lord's Mansion now. If he goes, there will inevitably be risks, but if he doesn't go, it will not be safe to let Ye Ci Ke cause trouble, and there is also Shen Sifan who is eyeing him covetously. If he goes, he can still have the protection of Duan Lanruo...
They waited like this until the middle of the night. Liu Yuan, who was lying on the bed with his eyes closed thinking, was about to get up to see Hu Jiuniang when he suddenly noticed that Chui Chui had turned back into human form.
The demon dragon that had transformed into a human form snorted and sneered twice, then pinned Liu Yuan down and sat on him. The red-haired girl laughed wildly, "Humble mount, I finally got the chance again! Now your cultivation is only at the foundation-building stage, and you must have eaten those human pills before. Hehe, I have completely seen through it!"
“……”What does this cat want to do?
Also, what does mount mean?
Liu Yuan silently put all the cards away, then reached out and grabbed the slender but flexible waist of the dragon girl.
"You're dead today, hahahaha... huh?"
The demon dragon looked down and saw Liu Yuan's helpless smile. He suddenly felt dizzy, and then the back of his head hurt, and he fell on the bed: "Woo..."
Liu Yuan sat on her, grabbed the red-haired woman's wrists with one hand and pressed them on top of her head.
"If I remember correctly, this is the twenty-third time... Let's forget about the previous times. Tell me, who is the mount?"
Liu Yuan laughed out of anger, but his smile was fake.
The demon dragon was stunned, and stopped struggling. She looked guilty and said, "This... that..." Her voice became smaller and smaller. She looked up at Liu Yuan and said dejectedly, "I am... I am the mount, okay?"
