Chapter 44 – A senior brother suddenly appears halfway Nangong Yue, seeing that the annoying fly was gone, regained her smile and skipped over to Lin Jichen. "Junior Brother, when did you get here? How long have you been waiting?" The surrounding players were once again dumbfounded. Why? When they tried to strike up a conversation, it didn't work, but Lin Jichen, who was also a player, didn't even need to try, and this NPC approached him on her own? Heavens, this game is so unfair!Alll latest novels on Before Lin Jichen could speak, a mountain-guarding disciple nearby tried to curry favor by answering for him, "Junior Sister Nangong, Junior Brother Lin has been here since last night and hasn't left." Nangong Yue, thinking Lin Jichen had been waiting for her all night, was deeply moved. "Silly Junior Brother, why did you wait for me all night? Didn't I tell you to get some rest? It's okay even if you're late." Lin Jichen: "???" He wanted to explain, but upon hearing the game's prompt, he immediately shut his mouth. [Ding! Nangong Yue's Affection Level towards you +2! Current Affection Level: 27 points (Riding Together)] "No woman should wait for a man; that's not gentlemanly. So, I came a bit early to avoid you being bothered by those people." Lin Jichen, without changing his expression, portrayed himself as the perfect gentleman. All for the sake of survival, ahem, nothing to be ashamed of. Sure enough, Nangong Yue was even more moved, and her mood brightened. "Then let's set off now." "Alright." Just as the two were about to leave, a gentle and magnetic voice suddenly came from behind. "Junior Sister Yue, please wait." Nangong Yue's face showed some annoyance and frustration upon hearing the voice. She didn't want to stay even for a moment and was about to summon her sword to leave. But at that moment, the person behind her had already stepped in front of her without her noticing, completely thwarting her plan to leave. The man in front of her was tall and imposing, dressed in a robe with dark cloud patterns, wearing a jeweled crown, and a white jade belt around his waist. He was handsome and exuded an extraordinary aura. This man was none other than the Senior Brother of the Inner Temple, Chu Tianhan, who held a revered position among all the disciples of the Tianyan Sword Sect. Many female players' eyes sparkled as they discovered another handsome guy! In fact, Lin Jichen's looks were even better, but Chu Tianhan's luxurious attire and accessories added to his charm. Moreover, with his Golden Elixir stage aura, Chu Tianhan easily became the center of attention. Saying this, Chu Tianhan flipped his hand, revealing a blue sword. "This sword is called the Pure Yang Ziwu Sword, a Mysterious Grade treasure. I used it during my Foundation Establishment stage. If you agree not to go, I'll give it to you." Gasp~ The crowd gasped. A Mysterious Grade equipment! At a time when most players didn't even have a single Spirit Grade equipment, the impact of a Mysterious Grade sword was unprecedented. And Lin Jichen could get it just by agreeing not to go. Damn, it's like getting it for free! All the players were insanely jealous. If they were Lin Jichen, they would have taken the sword without hesitation, gaining Senior Brother's favor. Why not? Why didn't such good things happen to them? Some players couldn't stand it and spoke up, "I want it! Give it to me!" These players just wanted to liven up the atmosphere but ended up angering Chu Tianhan. "Take those who spoke to the Enforcement Hall. Have them clean the mountain gate for a month! If they miss a day, the Outer Temple Enforcement Hall will be punished as well!" Chu Tianhan's voice was stern and loud. The Inner Temple disciples behind him immediately followed his orders, knocking the players to the ground for the Enforcement Hall disciples to handle. No other players dared to speak up. Chu Tianhan continued to stare at Lin Jichen, looking smug. He believed Lin Jichen would definitely agree if he had any sense. If Lin Jichen didn't go, Nangong Yue would have no choice but to pick him. However, Lin Jichen didn't even glance at the Mysterious Grade sword and spoke calmly. "Thank you for your kindness, Senior Brother, but I have a principle: I always keep my promises and never back out halfway." Chu Tianhan's confident expression froze and quickly darkened. He asked again, his voice carrying a different tone, "Are you serious, Junior Brother?" Lin Jichen didn't hesitate, his voice firm, "Of course." Chu Tianhan, furious, laughed and nodded 'approvingly.' "Good, very good. Junior Brother keeps his word. I admire that. Then I wish you success on your mission." "Thank you for your kind words, Senior Brother. I also wish you peace of mind, success in your endeavors, and prosperity," Lin Jichen replied mockingly. Chu Tianhan said nothing more, giving Lin Jichen a deep look before leaving with a flick of his sleeve.
