Chapter 231: [Return to Purple Palace]

Translator: 549690339

Three Thousand Mountains, inside an inn.

Lu Xun was browsing the forum while enjoying the litchis peeled for him by Ji Li.

The litchis were sweet and juicy, cool and refreshing. It was quite a satisfying treat.

Ji Li was happy to peel for Lu Xun. If he were to reject her considerate act, she would feel upset.

Through pictures and videos on the forum, Lu Xun found out that the entrance of Tianque Gate was remarkably bustling today.

It was something Tianque Gate deserved.

Mo Beipo might be a short dwarf, but he was a real?? man’s man.

Tianhe Shangren, who had been fearing death for centuries, forcefully broke through the barrier for the sake of his sect and the future generations.

Generation after generation, generation after generation…

Even if the sect doesn’t rise now, it will eventually.

However, Lu Xun had provided a significant aid to the current prosperity. When Purple Palace made an appearance, it certainly caused quite the stir.

“Unless something unexpected happens, Tianque Gate will slowly become the leading sect in the Three Thousand Mountain Area, and hold a significant position within the Three Thousand Mountains Alliance.”

“And I did remind Mo Beipo that anomalies could be employed, but he should be cautious when entrusting them with important tasks. He should keep this in mind. In any case, the nonsense from the players should be preventable, as they are all dependent on missions to act.”

“The development of Tianque Gate is not necessarily a bad thing for me. On the contrary, it could bring substantial benefits.”

Thinking about this, a faint smile appeared on Lu Xun’s face.

At this moment, he felt his hand itch slightly. The black cord of his sword sheath was rubbing gently on his hand and pointing towards the litchis in the plate.

“Do you want to eat too?” Ji Li continued peeling litchis for Lu Xun while asking the sword sheath, “Can you taste it?”

Lu Xun’s mouth twitched slightly. Looking at the small thorns all over the litchi peel and the juicy fruit, then the entrance of the sword sheath…

He rested his hand on his forehead, helplessly saying, “It’s not that it wants to eat…”

“Ah? Then what does it want?” Ji Li asked in curiosity.

“You’re too young, you won’t understand.” Lu Xun said.

“What do you mean I’m young?” Ji Li raised her head and puffed out her chest, disagreeing.

Lu Xun glanced at her and quickly averted his gaze.

Ji Li, looking at him, muttered quietly, “Lu Xun, I’m already 18, not young at all! My mom had already given birth to me at this age!”

Strongly hinting something.

Lu Xun flicked her forehead with his finger, muttering to himself inside, “You can’t just be thinking about breastfeeding all the time just because you have ample resources!”

However, not only the child might not go hungry in the future, even her husband might have to share that bounty.

Lu Xun said, “How old is our Demon Sect’s Peak Master Luo Wanqiu? She’s not in a rush, why are you?”

“Oh!” Ji Li replied, forcefully stuffing a peeled litchi into Lu Xun’s mouth.

It was indeed strange, the single rate in the Demon Sect was really high!

It made sense for Sect Master Shen Yan to be single, but all the other peak masters were single too.

A group of old bachelors!

No, wait, Yue Heshan seems to be a widower. He did have a wife, she was Yan Li’s junior disciple, the junior sister of everyone.

The dice on Hidden Mountain is his wife’s memento.

“But when I think about it, don’t I also not have a Master’s wife?” Lu Xun thought of his frivolous Master.

On the contrary, Senior Yanli owed several emotional debts when he was roaming the world.

Just like the life of a novel protagonist before his secluded cultivation, there were many women who had emotional entanglement with him that are now big shots in the Cultivation World.

“If I remember correctly, Xiao Ran, the world protagonist of Luotian Sect, her master, is one of them!”

“Yan Li is the world’s first Sword Cultivator, and his entanglements with female sword cultivators are even more numerous. There seems to be one elder from One Sword Mountain and Ten Thousand Sword Mountain each, whose relationship with him is intriguing.”

“I truly have no idea whether or not Boundless Mountain and Spring and Autumn Forest exist amongst the three Demon Sects.”

“Tsk, tsk, tsk, these lady bosses might be eagerly awaiting the day Senior Yanli breaks out. If that day comes, poor Senior Yanli will be driven mad, won’t he?”

“If it were me, I’d remain in seclusion.”

I was quite popular among women in my previous life, I understand the trouble that comes with being too popular. I totally understand.

After a few days of harvesting millions of Experience Points in the Three Thousand Mountains, Lu Xun planned to leave the place and return to the Demon Sect.

The players who have joined the Demon Sect automatically become part of his sect’s faction and are the most reliable bunch of players.

These players are all his junior generations, they should need his love and care.

Some of them are pro players who were selected personally by him to join the Demon Sect, but most of them joined Demon Sect on their own after completing plot tasks and proved their strength.

He has seen too many posts by Demon Sect disciples on the forum, one of the most common complaints being: “Why hasn’t Purple Palace returned to the Sect yet!”

Who wouldn’t want to interact with this legendary NPC?

Who wouldn’t want to see what the legendary Natural Sword Embryo looks like?

Who wouldn’t want to curry favor with the World Protagonist?

They thought they could get close to him sooner than others, but after the public testing, Purple Palace’s first appearance was actually at Tianque Gate…

Lu Xun wasn’t in a hurry about this. These players have already entered his pond, and occasionally stirring up their appetite wouldn’t do any harm.

Counting the dates, the triennial Outer Sect competition is also approaching.

As Ji Li has not yet entered the inner Sect, she is eligible to sign up for the Outer Sect competition.

Though Lu Xun has been training with her daily, constant sparring with him alone isn’t enough, it’s too monotonous.

He thinks it would be a good idea for Ji Li to take part in the Outer Sect competition and gain some combat experience, which could only be beneficial.

Moreover, with her strength, placing high in the competition wouldn’t be a problem. High ranking positions still had some considerable rewards.

Even though Sect Master Shen Yan is notoriously stingy, the major Sect competitions were managed by Luo Wanqiu, a beautiful young woman known for her generosity.

With the backing of the wealthy Zhuge Lai Fu, the third Elder Brother, the rewards were incredibly lucrative!

Of course, Ji Li probably didn’t want to return to the Sect, she preferred to continue being “together day and night” with Lu Xun.

But when Lu Xun speaks, she listens, and the Inner Sect examination is not far off, which she must attend.

Lu Xun glanced at the Spirit Crow on his shoulder. After he returns to the Sect, he will need to bring the Spirit Crow to his Master as a task submission.

Whether this clueless crow will end up as a dish, he wasn’t too sure.

A few days later, Lu Xun’s paper crane landed on the Lead Peak of the Demon Sect. The patrolling disciples on top of the Lead Peak immediately came forward and greeted, “Welcome back to the Sect, Young Elder!”

Lu Xun looked around at the patrolling disciples and didn’t see any player.

Well, that made sense. The silly players haven’t reached the level to take on patrol missions yet.

The news of Lu Xun’s return swiftly spread within the Demon Sect, especially within the player circle of the Demon Sect, causing quite the stir!

The man of our dreams has finally returned!

They are just like fanatic fans, waiting eagerly for their idol.

I can hardly hold my tongue anymore, I want to worship him so badly!

It’s a pity that Lu Xun needs to head to the back mountain first. They won’t be able to see Purple Palace today.

Under Ji Li’s reluctant gaze, Lu Xun said goodbye and returned to report to his Master at the back mountain.

When Lu Xun arrived at the back mountain by riding the paper crane, he found that Sect Master Shen Yan was also there, and it was clear that he had just arrived.

“Could it be that he’s waiting for me?” Lu Xun thought to himself.
