Chapter 264 – Sister, please bear with it for a moment
Gu Qiuxue's initially gloomy expression finally broke into a smile when she saw the newcomer.
"Little Chen~" Gu Qiuxue waved happily at Lin Jichen.
This was the first time the siblings had met in the game.
Gu Qiuxue thought Little Chen looked incredibly handsome in his ancient costume in the game.
She ran towards Lin Jichen from the village.
The four lecherous men brightened up when they saw Gu Qiuxue come out and immediately surrounded her.
Gu Qiuxue hid behind Lin Jichen, feeling an unprecedented sense of security.
"Little Chen, it's these guys."
Lin Jichen smiled, "Alright, sis, leave it to me."
The four men realized Gu Qiuxue had called for backup, which explained her boldness.
"Damn it, just an old player, huh? Try touching us, do you know who we are?"
"Playing a bit longer and you think you can show off in the novice village? Who do you think you are?"
"Don't be afraid to tell you, we've already joined a big guild. If you mess with us, we can call hundreds of people to kill you in no time!"
...
The four had just started playing the game and didn't recognize Lin Jichen, thinking he was just an ordinary player who had played a month longer than them.
Seeing their fearless demeanor, Lin Jichen wondered where they got their courage from.
They were like bats with chicken feathers tied to them, not knowing what kind of bird they were.
Lin Jichen couldn't even be bothered to draw his sword. He rolled up his sleeves and slapped one of them!
Smack!
Before the man could react, he was slapped across the face and sent flying. He was dead before he even hit the ground.
Yes, one slap killed him instantly.
Seeing their comrade turn into a Soul Burial Mound, the other three finally woke up.
"Damn it, you're looking for death! Call for backup! Quick, call for backup!"
Lin Jichen didn't waste any words and slapped another one, killing him instantly as well.
The remaining two ran towards the village as fast as they could.
Once inside the village, Lin Jichen couldn't touch them due to the novice village's protection mechanism.
But Lin Jichen wouldn't let them escape. He caught up and gave each of them a big slap.
Four Soul Burial Mounds appeared at Lin Jichen's feet. He didn't even bother to look at them and said to the onlooking players, "Anyone who wants these Soul Burial Mounds can take them, help yourselves."
As soon as he said this, the onlookers rushed over and looted the four Soul Burial Mounds clean.
The four were all red-named players, and with Lin Jichen's great luck, their deaths left them with nothing but their underwear.
Their hard-earned Spirit Stones were all gone, and their cultivation dropped from the initial stage of Qi Refining back to the mortal realm.
The four ran back from the village's resurrection point, standing at the village entrance, helplessly watching their Soul Burial Mounds being looted.
They could only curse at Lin Jichen but didn't dare step out of the village.
As for calling for backup? No guild would waste time and Spirit Stones to help four ordinary players in the novice village.
They had no backup at all.
Lin Jichen let them curse until another figure flew in from a distance and landed beside him.
"See, it's these four," Lin Jichen said simply to the newcomer.
"Okay, leave it to me. You take Sister Qiuxue away. I love dealing with these lecherous guys," the newcomer grinned, showing a friendly smile.
"Alright, it's all yours." Lin Jichen didn't waste any more words and summoned the Dark Night Sword.
The Dark Night Sword grew in the wind, transforming into a broad-bladed giant sword.
Lin Jichen leaped onto the sword, grabbing the unsuspecting Gu Qiuxue.
Gu Qiuxue let out a surprised cry as they flew into the sky, disappearing from the novice village under the watchful eyes of the players.
Gu Qiuxue might be the first player to experience Sword Flight before even leaving the novice village. Lin Jichen hadn't even had that privilege.
Seeing Lin Jichen leave, the four lecherous men breathed a sigh of relief and stepped out of the village.
But they didn't expect that their nightmare was just beginning...
"Little Chen... slow down... I'm a bit scared..."
"Sis, it's okay. The first time is always like this. Just bear with it for a bit, I'll be quick."
"Alright... okay..."
Gu Qiuxue clung to Lin Jichen's clothes, nervously shrinking into his embrace.
For Gu Qiuxue, experiencing flight for the first time was a bit too sudden.
Her face flushed red. She knew holding Lin Jichen like this was too intimate, but her fear of heights made her forget about it.
After a while, Gu Qiuxue slightly adapted to the high-altitude flight.
"Little Chen, it's all my fault for being useless, making you come all this way for such a small matter."
Lin Jichen said, "Sis, what are you talking about? We don't need to be so formal. Besides, you just started playing, how could you possibly fight off four people alone?"
"But I heard from Lan that she could beat up everyone in the novice village right after joining the game," Gu Qiuxue said.
Lin Jichen laughed, "She's just a crazy woman, a violent maniac. You're different, you chose to be a healer, you don't need to fight much."
"Is that so... that's good then..." Gu Qiuxue said, half-believing.
"Of course! And even if you don't know how to play, I'll teach you step by step, making you the best healer in the Tale of Immortal!"
As Lin Jichen spoke, he suddenly hugged Gu Qiuxue's slender waist from behind, resting his head on her shoulder.
Gu Qiuxue's body trembled as if electrified, her cheeks quickly turning red. Although it was just a game, this kind of hug and touch felt no different from reality...
"Little Chen... let go of me... someone might see..." Gu Qiuxue whispered.
"Sis, we're thousands of meters in the air, who could see us?" Lin Jichen teased.
"But... but I'm still your sister, how can you be so reckless... we're..." Gu Qiuxue stammered, too embarrassed to continue.
Lin Jichen laughed, "Sis, did you forget? We're not even close relatives anymore."
Of course, Gu Qiuxue knew, but the suddenness of it all made her babble, not knowing what she was saying.
Since meeting Lin Jichen these two times, he was completely different from before.
Lin Jichen's attitude towards her was no longer evasive and distant; instead, he became particularly reliant on her.
Even after leaving the Capital City, Lin Jichen would call her almost every day, chatting for at least half an hour each time.
When she moved here, it was fortunate that Ren Lan was around, otherwise, she feared how bold her mischievous brother might get.
But... Lan seemed to be going back to school tomorrow... and once Niu Naitang also went to school, it would just be the two of them...
The more Gu Qiuxue thought about it, the redder her face became. Just as her face was about to burn up, Lin Jichen reached the teleportation array and finally let go of her waist.
"Sis, let's go to the Mysterious Medical Sect. What's wrong? Why are you daydreaming?"
"Huh? Oh, nothing, just thinking about what to cook for you for lunch... let's go, let's go..."
Gu Qiuxue said guiltily, lowering her head, not daring to look at Lin Jichen.
It seemed like their time alone was really about to begin.
