Zhao Jia Rui looked carefully at the sword that was in her hands.
On the scabbard there were intricate carvings of two dragons, and in the middle of them were the words, 'Qing Feng Sword'.
She felt the immense power inside the sword, and she drew the sword out of the scabbard.
A gust of wind blew as she wielded the sword around.
The wind sliced some of the crops and she quickly put it back into the scabbard.
"Thank you, ancestor." This Qing Feng Sword was obviously anything but normal.
Zhao Jia Rui estimated it must have been at least at Heavenly Level.
Even the Nine Heavens Thunder Sword of the sect master in Thunder Sword Sect is only Mystic Level.
One level lower than the Qing Feng Sword.
Lin Quan Qi nodded with satisfaction and marveled at Zhao Jia Rui in her white robes with the Qing Feng Sword.
Now that looks more like it.
He then purchased some farming equipment for her from the "Shop" option.
Once the crops could be harvested, Zhao Jia Rui would then have funds for daily operations and expansion.
"Jia Rui, where are you!" Su Tian Bing shouted as he wandered into the area.
Zhao Jia Rui gasped when she saw him.
"Go away, you are not welcome here. There are Fire Talismans all around the area and if you trespass, face the consequences yourself." She shouted at him, warning him not to get near.
Su Tian Bing had kept harassing her even when she rejected him.
She had only looked upon him as a senior martial brother, nothing more.
But Su Tian Bing couldn't believe what he had heard.
He was the most promising disciple in Thunder Sword Sect, destined to be the sect master.
How could she not see how good he was.
He had rejected so many jade beauties wanting to become his cultivation partner in dual cultivation, but he had rejected all of them for Zhao Jia Rui.
And now, this.
Zhao Jia Rui's words stung him.
He had agreed to Zhao Jia Rui's senior martial sisters' plans to frame her so that he could show her the way.
To be with him, and yet.
"Why are you doing this to me?" He looked up into the sky and shouted.
"Please leave. I'm no longer with the Thunder Sword Sect." Zhao Jia Rui said and lifted her arm, with the Qing Feng Sword in her hand.
Su Tian Bing saw the Qing Feng Sword and the crops all around.
And he figured it out.
"You! You have someone else now, do you." He seethed with anger as he said.
Zhao Jia Rui had always kept a distance with him.
Every step he took getting closer to her, she would take a step back.
Come to think of it, she didn't even allow him to have a whiff of the perfume she wore.
"Ask that bastard to come out and fight like a man!" Su Tian Bing couldn't take it anymore, he had to kill the man who is now close to Zhao Jia Rui.
Or even worse... the man could have taken her.
The mere thought made his heart pound as he imagined his goddess getting raunchy with some other man.
He shouted again, "Come out you bastard! Snatching another man's love is just despicable."
Lin Xuan Qi frowned and nearly cringed so hard that the makeup artist thought he went into a seizure.
Since you want to fight, let's do it.
He tapped around and wanted to buy more talismans, but a notification appeared.
[Purchase at $500 for a chance to appear in the game to fight against Su Tian Bing? Y/N]
He didn't even hesitate and clicked on 'Y'.
Another menu came up and he looked at it.
[Select your attire and weapon to descend upon the game:]
[1. Edgelord Ancestor Theme, Darkness and Blood, $500]
[2. Heavenly Emperor, Saint and Power, $500]
[3. Young Master, Average and Aura Farmer, $500]
"Just as I thought." He knew the game designers weren't about to be so generous.
Now that he had purchased the earlier option, there was no way for him not to purchase the next one.
Begrudgingly, he thought for a moment and chose the third option.
It would be the first time that Zhao Jia Rui got to see him.
He definitely wasn't some edgelord, and heavenly emperor would seem so distant.
So, he selected the third option.
[Initiating Level 1 link with host.]
[Host descending with Cultivation Level of Great Ascension]
[$1 for every second you stay in the game]
All of a sudden, Lin Xuan Qi couldn't feel his body anymore.
The makeup artist and the surroundings melted away.
His mind was engulfed in a white glow.
Zhao Jia Rui by now was very angry at Su Tian Bing.
What was he talking about?
She had no other man with her.
Except for the ancestor.
And the ancestor was a being that she revered and looked upon.
She would be so happy to be graced with a visit by the ancestor.
"I have no other man in my life!" She shouted angrily at Su Tian Bing.
His response startled Su Tian Bing.
His eyes reddened.
It must be true then.
If it's not for a loved one, Zhao Jia Rui wouldn't be responding in such a manner.
She had never talked to him like this.
That man must be killed!
He drew out his sword and started to direct his Qi.
Zhao Jia Rui cursed under her breath and drew out the Qing Feng Sword.
Why doesn't he just listen.
As Su Tian Bing took a step forward, Fire Talismans appeared.
He froze as he saw the Fire Talismans.
Black colored paper with red scriptures.
He swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
Knowing what they signified, he wanted to take a step back.
A gust of wind blew, and a bright glow appeared in the sky.
A glowing young figure wearing cultivation robes slowly descended.
Lin Xuan Qi saw that he was now standing between Su Tian Bing and Zhao Jia Rui.
Zhao Jia Rui opened her eyes wide when she saw a glimpse of the young figure's face.
