Ding Yao and I worked together to clean the house.
Su Chen and Jian Yan, who caused all of this, simply watched with their arms crossed from beginning to end.
Finally, Su Chen returned to his computer desk, then pursed his lips and said, "Even if there really is a power leak, we'll be fine."
"See, now look what happened, you've been flagged as AFK."
Clearly, they did not think there was anything wrong with what they had done.
He was completely focused on the game, and the pop-up penalty notification was clearly more of a concern for him.
Upon hearing this, Shen Yanyan immediately exploded.
She stormed up to Su Chen and flicked him on the forehead.
But Su Chen was perfectly fine; on the contrary, she was in so much pain that she clutched her hand and couldn't recover for a long time.
Seeing this, Jian Yan actually felt that Su Chen's words made sense.
It's just a little rain leaking in, no big deal.
He also felt that Shen Yanyan and Ding Yao were making a mountain out of a molehill.
However, unlike Su Chen, who was a straight man, he slowly walked to Shen Yanyan's side and then lifted her swollen and red hand.
Looking at how thick her fingers had become, it was easy to tell how much force Shen Yanyan had used in her anger.
"See? This is the consequence of a mortal disrespecting a cultivator." Jian Yan intended to take this opportunity to make Shen Yanyan understand more clearly the hierarchy in the cultivation world.
I understand the cruelty of this world even more now.
Su Chen then turned around and interjected, "It's fortunate that you attacked me this time, otherwise it wouldn't just be a swollen finger."
If it were any other powerful expert, your entire hand would probably vanish the moment you made your move.
Don't hold a grudge this time; just consider it a lesson learned.
Of course, you don't need to hold a grudge, because I've forgiven you.
"you!"
After listening to the two of them spouting nonsense one after the other, Shen Yanyan forgot all about the pain in her fingers.
He pointed at the two of them, his arm trembling, clearly very angry.
"Okay, I was just kidding."
Seeing that things had gone far enough, Shen Yanyan knew that if they continued teasing them, she would really turn against them.
Then he extended his finger and sent a wisp of true energy into the swollen finger.
In just a short time, the finger recovered completely.
But Shen Yanyan wasn't having any of it. Her eyebrows furrowed with anger, and she flicked each of them on the forehead again, but this time she knew what was what.
I knew to hold back, so I didn't experience any new injuries arising after old ones had just healed.
"I can't be bothered with you guys anymore!"
After saying that, he grabbed Ding Yao and stormed out of the room, thoughtfully closing the door behind them.
This made Su Chen and Jian Yan smile.
But then they realized that they were the only two people left in the room, so they both resumed their serious expressions.
I clicked the mouse aimlessly a couple of times; perhaps because I had just lost a game, I had lost all interest.
Neither of them brought up the idea of starting a new game again.
"Hey, why hasn't Wan'er come back yet?"
"I can no longer sense the fluctuations from Sect Master Xia's aura. Could something have happened to them?"
He suddenly stood up from the back of his chair, but as he finished speaking, a look of worry unconsciously appeared in Su Chen's eyes.
Xia Lian's imperial aura had disappeared several days ago, but Su Yang had not returned for a long time, which made him suspicious.
Upon hearing this, Jian Yan paused, his hand holding the mouse still.
After a long silence, he said, "I can't rule out that possibility. I plan to wait three more days. If Wan'er hasn't returned by then, I'll go find her."
"I'm sure you've noticed what happened a few days ago. Besides Sect Master Xia, another extremely powerful aura erupted in this world."
"You mean...him?"
Even without explicitly stating the name, a powerful figure at the Emperor level would sense something even if it was merely something that was thought of or considered by others.
Using one's name directly makes it easier to attract the other person's attention.
Knowing who Su Chen was referring to, Jian Yan's eyes flashed with solemnity as he said, "I never expected that he would actually come to this world in person."
They really left us no way out. If it weren't for Sect Leader Xia and Yang Chi's Nine Dragon Spear, we would probably have been captured by them long ago.
Why......"
He couldn't help but sigh. Jinghua's appearance was like a towering mountain, pressing down on his heart.
"Hopefully, Wan'er and the others haven't fallen into his hands."
All he could do was pray helplessly, which made Jianyan feel incredibly humiliated.
Never before have they so desperately hoped that the Emperor's will could break the seal.
That way, even if Su Yang falls into the hands of the other party, he will still have the right to go and rescue her.
"Actually, things aren't necessarily that bad."
With Sect Leader Xia by Wan'er's side, even if he came in person, he probably wouldn't get any advantage.
At the very least, he couldn't be certain of winning against Xia Lian.
It was as if he was speaking to Jianyan, but it was also as if he was speaking to himself.
Su Chen analyzed it, but there was one thing he didn't mention.
That is, all of this is based on the premise that Jinghua and Xia Lian are one-on-one.
No matter how strong Xia Lian is, she can only deal with one opponent of the same realm.
But as the master of the Holy Land, how could Jinghua be alone when he crosses over to the mortal realm this time?
Even if he travels incognito and is alone, don't forget that Xia Lian has an unparalleled adversary in this world.
If those two join forces, Xia Lian will undoubtedly be defeated.
"I hope so."
It was like deceiving himself; Jian Yan then fell silent.
Seeing his dejected appearance, Su Chen didn't say anything more.
After all, no matter what they say now, it's just their speculation. Several days have passed, and apart from Su Yang and a few other people involved, who else could possibly know what really happened?
