Just a moment ago, the fleeting intimate scene left Lin Jichen's mind a bit scrambled.
Moments later, the bedroom door opened, and Gu Qiuxue stepped out, her face still flushed as red as blood.
"I forgot to bring my clothes, so..." Gu Qiuxue explained.
Lin Jichen quickly said, "Sis, I understand. I just wanted to say the towel is really white... ahem..."
Gu Qiuxue's embarrassment deepened, and she gave Lin Jichen a half-angry, half-amused glance.
Realizing he might have said something wrong, Lin Jichen hurriedly changed the subject to ease the awkwardness.
A quick look at "pawread dot com" will leave you more fulfilled.
"Sis, I'm a bit hungry."
"Then I'll cook you some noodles?"
"Let's go downstairs for a late-night snack, let's get some barbecue," Lin Jichen suggested.
"Why the sudden craving for barbecue?" Gu Qiuxue asked with a smile.
"I'm just craving it, Sis. Come on, let's go get some skewers."@@@@
With that, Lin Jichen took Gu Qiuxue out, and they found a late-night food stall not far from their community. They ordered some barbecue.
The two of them sat at a small table, eating their late-night snack and drinking juice, chatting about their game experiences.
Gu Qiuxue told Lin Jichen that ever since she became Yun Lanyi's disciple, Yun Lanyi had been very kind to her, patiently guiding her cultivation and even gifting her two rare secret techniques.
Moreover, Fang Qingzhu was also very good to her, often chatting with her and taking her on missions to understand the sect's situation.
Now, Gu Qiuxue's cultivation had already broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, a significant improvement compared to when she was a newbie in the game.
Lin Jichen was naturally happy to hear this and promised to take her to explore a secret realm once he returned from the Hundred Thousand Mountains. Gu Qiuxue readily agreed.
As they ate, they noticed that many of the other customers around them were also talking about "Tale of Immortal," with some even boasting about Lin Jichen's glorious deeds.
"Do you know Lin Jichen? He's the top expert in 'Tale of Immortal.' His skills and operations are truly breathtaking!"
"Of course, anyone who watches his battle videos would call him a big brother. I chose to be a Sword Cultivator after watching his videos."
"A friend of mine is a disciple of the Tianyan Sword Sect. Lin Jichen is my fellow sect brother."
"Yeah right, Lin Jichen is my buddy. He promised to take me to explore a secret realm a few days ago."
"You're just bragging, haha."
Gu Qiuxue laughed and accepted the card without further protest.
After their late-night snack, they strolled around the night market. Gu Qiuxue bought some fruit before they returned home.

Once home, Gu Qiuxue reminded him to take a shower, and Lin Jichen agreed.
That night, after Lin Jichen finished his shower, he found that Gu Qiuxue had already placed washed fruit and a cup of hot milk in his bedroom before going to bed early.
Eating the fruit Gu Qiuxue had cut for him and drinking the hot milk, Lin Jichen felt immensely satisfied.
This kind of life was very peaceful yet exceptionally warm. Lin Jichen wished he could keep it this way forever.
What he wanted was a confidante who understood him, someone who was considerate and kind.
In his previous life, he had trusted the wrong people, but in this life, he wouldn't make the same mistake.
If there were no world fusion and no demonic invasions, living a life of mutual understanding and companionship with Gu Qiuxue until old age would be wonderful.
Unfortunately, Lin Jichen knew that these peaceful days would eventually end. He still needed to prepare for the chaotic and unending future, to protect those he wanted to protect.

The next day, Lin Jichen re-entered the game, still in the perilous Hundred Thousand Mountains.
He carefully surveyed his surroundings, ensuring there was no sign of Chu Tianhan before continuing his quest for the Violet Illusion Spirit Incense.
Just when Lin Jichen thought he was safe, a streak of light rapidly approached from the horizon.
Lin Jichen's face changed. His sixth sense told him that the approaching person was likely Chu Tianhan.
It seemed Chu Tianhan had set up some sort of trigger formation nearby. As soon as Lin Jichen moved, he triggered the formation, alerting Chu Tianhan.
This is bad!
Thinking quickly, Lin Jichen took out a disguise mask and hurriedly put it on.
Then he activated his disguise ability.
To better deceive Chu Tianhan, Lin Jichen disguised himself as a female cultivator!
Cross-dressing, here goes nothing!
Lin Jichen disguised himself as Jiang Luoyu.
