When Lu Qingyan looked at the rankings, sure enough, Ji's name was prominently displayed at the top of the wealth list.
Lu Qingyan said resentfully, "[Tong'er, you were just talking about a battle power ranking...]"
The system fawned, "Master, you misheard. I was talking about the wealth rankings, the wealth rankings, hehe~"
This holographic game, titled "God of War: Storms and Clouds," features three rankings: a power ranking, a wealth ranking, and a beauty ranking. However, the beauty ranking is the most popular among most players.
Lu Qingyan searched Ji's information in her mind and found that this person hadn't been online for several years. He hadn't been online at all!
She angrily threw it down. Nobody's playing the game anymore, where is she supposed to find someone to date?
The system chuckled and made sarcastic remarks: "Master, I actually think you should first figure out how to get out of the game. If you linger too long, people will die."
Lu Qingyan's face darkened: [I don't need your reminder! If you had a way, you wouldn't have sent me to this point, trapped in the game.]
After leaving the desolate mountain and going to the main street, Lu Qingyan saw a man dressed in tattered gray-brown clothes being stopped by guards after only a few steps into the city: "Who are you? What are you doing here? Don't you know that you can't enter the city dressed like this?"
Before Lu Qingyan could do anything, the body was suddenly thrown onto the ground, legs in the air, as if controlled by someone, and began to throw a tantrum: "Why, why are you doing this to me? I've been looking for you for years, and you still won't come out to see me!"
Watching helplessly as the homeless woman Sunshine behaved in such a shrewish manner, Lu Qingyan said she wanted to die.
She couldn't believe she had done something so shameful. Even though it wasn't under her control, she was still in great pain!
Hearing Lu Qingyan's tone, some people around thought they had stumbled upon a great mission and stepped forward to ask, "Uncle, what happened? Tell us, there are so many of us who can help."
The disheveled man, still crying and sniffling, yelled, "Get out of here! What do you know? What good would it do you even if you did?"
Perhaps because his character design was so bad, his actions scared away quite a few people. However, a few girls who claimed to be "kind-hearted and gentle" in the game remained, looking at him with pity.
Lu Qingyan had already given up on herself. She listened as this body recounted a past event: "Since you're willing to listen, then listen. This story begins more than twenty years ago. Back then, my senior brother Xuan Yingzi and I became apprentices of a mysterious old man. He learned martial arts, and I learned medicine. We studied together every day, ate together, bathed together, and made a promise to stay together like this forever."
But one day when I returned from gathering herbs, I found my master lying in a pool of blood, the dagger I had given him stuck in his chest. You have no idea how terrified I was, and you have no idea how much hatred I felt.
That was our master! He taught us for so many years and treated us like his own children, yet Brother Ken cruelly tried to kill him! I wish none of this was true, but I've never seen him since then.
I'm too old to walk anymore, but I still want to hold on and find him to get to the bottom of things! I want to tear his heart out and see if it's truly black.
After she finished speaking, Lu Qingyan clearly saw a message appear in front of those people: Hidden Quest Triggered - "Old Feud"? Accept?
