Chapter 127: Chapter 127: I Want to Fall in Love with an NPC! (One more update)
The female disciples of Celestial Cyan Workshop stood frozen in place, staring.
They hadn’t taken a direct path like the Profound Yellow Sect’s members. Instead, they had traveled through a passage on the left and encountered an attack by the Black Wolf Pack.
Even their Shopkeeper, Yan Ruyu, had sacrificed herself to save them, staying behind to cover their retreat.
They had arrived here utterly exhausted from their escape.
When they finally saw a place with light and rushed towards it, they were greeted with this scene.
What’s going on?
Aren’t these people from the Profound Yellow Sect, and aren’t they actually eating here?
And the smell... it’s really too delicious.
Many female disciples, weary in body and soul, couldn’t help but salivate at the enticing smell of the fish soup.
They had gone through hell trying to find a way out, and what was the result?
The people from the Profound Yellow Sect were here enjoying a meal, each one eating quite happily.
Are they the real victims here?
"Quick, look at that Female NPC, what white legs! I could play with them for a year!"
"The short Female NPC is even better; you can just pick her up and hehehe..."
"Have some standards, okay? The one on the left with baby fat looks good. I like them with a bit of meat on their bones."
"So many Female NPCs fleeing together, it’s quite a sight."
The players also started chiming in with their comments, their lecherous tendencies on full display.
Sister Zhou and a few other female players couldn’t help but roll their eyes.
What kind of people are they?
They were just screaming for a hug from us female players a moment ago, and now that a bunch of Female NPCs showed up, they’re all losing control?
Is that all?
The female disciples of Celestial Cyan Workshop didn’t approach but just stood there watching.
The people from the Profound Yellow Sect had Powerful Flashlights that illuminated the entire cave. Fires were also lit nearby to provide warmth.
The entire cave was laid bare.
"What’s the situation? What exactly are the people from Profound Yellow Sect doing here?" one of the Celestial Cyan Workshop disciples muttered.
"What are they making that smells so delicious? It even smells better than the dishes from the First Tower of Jiangnan," another wondered.
"Look at those Black Fish by the shore. It seems they’ve also encountered these monsters."
"So they’re eating the Black Fish?"
The female disciples of Celestial Cyan Workshop were buzzing with discussion. Clearly, some of them were envious of the Profound Yellow Sect’s group.
By the shore, Xu Nian greeted them with a bow and invited, "Ladies, why not come and sit down for a bit? How about warming up by the fire with something to eat?"
Hearing Xu Nian’s invitation, the female disciples of Celestial Cyan Workshop were somewhat tempted.
However, their Shopkeeper was still behind, holding off the Black Wolves for them, so they hesitated to come forward.
Before long, a figure covered in blood walked in from the cave entrance.
The woman’s expression was cold. Her green silk gown was splattered with bloodstains, and she appeared to have killed quite a few Black Wolves.
This woman was none other than the Shopkeeper of Celestial Cyan Workshop, Yan Ruyu!
Earlier, outside, Xu Nian had seen the people from Celestial Cyan Workshop. They had been positioned not far from Cui Shengshu and the others.
Yan Ruyu also looked over at that moment.
Her complexion turned quite ugly when she saw how at ease the people from the Profound Yellow Sect were.
Inside the underground palace where the Nine Dragons Secret Treasure was located, the Black Wolves they encountered were indeed tough to deal with.
There was even a Black Wolf King with power comparable to the Grandmaster Realm.
If she weren’t more powerful, she likely would have died in the passage outside by now.
But what about now?
They had come here after barely escaping death.
Yet the people from the Profound Yellow Sect seemed to be on a leisurely excursion, with plenty to eat and drink, unconcerned about the situation outside.
What exactly was going on here?
Xu Nian also sized up Yan Ruyu and smiled, "Shopkeeper Yan, why not bring your people over for a sit? Have some fish soup to warm up?"
Seeing her own disciples exhausted in body and mind, Yan Ruyu knew they had to rest.
Since the people from the Profound Yellow Sect had spoken, there was no harm in them going over to sit down as well.
"Thank you!" Yan Ruyu nodded lightly and reached out to wipe the bloodstains from her cheeks.
As the Celestial Cyan Sect Female Disciples approached, the players from the Profound Yellow Sect stood up one after another and moved aside.
"Damn, is this game really starting to hand out perks?"
"Isn’t this the perfect time to organize a social event? I’m thinking about defecting to this All-Female Faction now."
"I want to date an NPC, but I wonder what that would be like."
"You should be able to date one! After all, they’re all controlled by smart AI Control. You might even get a Wedding Night here!"
Many players had already begun to be tempted.
In the real world, they couldn’t catch any Sister’s attention. With no money, no house, and no car, they spent their days glued to their phones, playing games, and watching videos.
They had long been thoroughly scorned by Sisters.
Now this game let them date NPCs directly—who wouldn’t want that?
Even just to practice, they didn’t want to miss out.
Junlin was also sizing up these Female NPCs, nodding in satisfaction as if he were selecting his concubines.
He seemed to have never tried sleeping with an NPC before.
That Yan Ruyu would definitely be the hardest to conquer. Perhaps it wouldn’t even be possible with her.
But there might be hope with the other Female Disciples.
Immediately, he asked Little Boss for a few new pairs of chopsticks and then directly passed them to a few Celestial Cyan Sect Female Disciples he had his eye on.
The others started to follow suit.
"Damn it! Junlin snatched her first! That Sister was the one I saw first."
"If you’re not happy, go fight for her! Competing with the Top Player for a woman sounds thrilling. I’m rooting for you."
"That Sister with the teardrop mole is nice. I’m going to lick her boots first!"
"Well now, you’re only into the busty ones, huh?"
Watching the Profound Yellow Sect players start to show their attentiveness, Yan Ruyu furrowed her brows slightly.
How could she not know what men were thinking?
Her disciples were all Inexperienced Novices; how could they understand the wickedness of men?
It seemed she shouldn’t get too close to the people from the Profound Yellow Sect.
Xu Nian found a spot and sat down casually. She no longer paid attention to Yan Ruyu’s group and began to eat with her chopsticks.
However, she ate the very pieces of fish meat the Blood Demoness had her eye on.
Seeing her food being snatched away, the Blood Demoness was furious.
If looks could kill, Xu Nian would have died countless times by now.
But our Sect Leader Xu didn’t care in the slightest, continuing to indulge in her food, completely indifferent to the Blood Demoness’s murderous gaze.
This scene made Yan Ruyu furrow her brows even more.
Usually, when men saw her, they would all rush over to show their attentiveness. But now?
This Sect Leader Xu just invited her over and then ignored her?
Playing hard to get?
Thinking of this, Yan Ruyu’s gaze lingered on Xu Nian for a moment longer.
"Sect Leader Xu," Yan Ruyu asked, looking at the Powerful Flashlight beside Xu Nian with a hint of curiosity, "that kind of lantern you have that can shine light, may I have a look?"
It was also her first time seeing such a thing.
When she had come in earlier, she had been drawn to this object in the hands of the Profound Yellow Sect Disciples.
Able to light this place up so brightly, this thing could truly be called a divine artifact!
