Li Shen’s arrived.
Since the groom has appeared, the players’ complaint naturally stopped. Now, everyone is waiting for the wedding reception.
Yu Wan privately messaged Li Shen, “Are you busy with your work?”
Little Prince didn’t reply but Li Shen’s call arrived. Yu Wan quickly picked up the phone after seeing who is calling, “Li Shen?”
“En, sorry I’m late.” Li Shen replied to Yu Wan while typing on the keyboard.
Yu Wan heard his voice and smiled, “It doesn’t matter, it’s only a game. Just don’t come late for your actual wedding.”
She didn’t think much when she said it but when she realized what she said….can she take it back??
“Uh, this is an occupational disease!” Yu Wan quickly defended herself.
Li Shen’s voice carried a bit of a smile as if he didn’t mind what she said, “So, there have been people who were late to their own wedding?”
“Yes. There have also been people who backed out on the wedding day.”
“Then your work must be exhausting.” Li Shen looked at the system prompt on the screen and said, “Are you ready? I’m going to start the reception.”
“En, okay.”
“I based the reception off the one Hu Jiao and Yu Shimin had.”
“Okay. I’m going to screen record.”
“En.” Li Shen responded and clocked “start wedding reception.”
The game provided different themes for the wedding reception but they are all very similar. After the wedding reception started, the players online would receive an invitation to participate or not.
Yu Wan and Li Shen have already teleported to the wedding reception. Soon, more and more players have gathered. When the limit was reached, no more players can enter.
After the guests arrived, they will give the couple a red envelope which contains 50 coins. They would then say words of blessings and then they can get drinks and gifts. Yu Wan and Li Shen stood together and accepted the players’ red envelopes and blessings. While they receive their blessings on and on, Yu Wan asked Li Shen, “What did you prepare for the drinks and gifts? Were they expensive?”
Li Shen responded, “Not really.”
“.....” The words “not really” can make a person’s imagination run wild. She was about to ask about splitting the reception cost 50/50 when another voice of blessing popped up on the screen.
The blessings can be spoken out loud but basically, no one does this. Because it is troublesome.
Yu Wan looked at that “Blessed in Middle Age” player and curiously clicked on the voice message.
“Have you two reconciled?! Should I be wishing you a long and happy life together or everlasting friendship?!”
Yu Wan, “....”
“It’s Zhu Gan. Ignore him.” Li Shen’s voice came from the headset followed by a fast keyboard tapping sound. Yu Wan guessed that he might be private messaging Zhu Gan.
“The reception is about to end. I’m going to set the sky lantern.”
Yu Wan was surprised, “There are also sky lanterns?”
“En. When Yu Shimin and Hu Jiao got married, they set off 999 sky lanterns.”
…..Yu Wan has a bad hunch in her heart. She feels that Miss Hu would ask to release sky lanterns are her real wedding.
Yu Wan has never seen a large-scale release of sky lanterns in reality. When the 999 sky lanterns were released in the game, it was still a shocking sight to her.
“So pretty.” She couldn’t help but sigh.
“En, beautiful.” The person on the phone replied.
The two of them admired the sky lanterns. Xiao Dong witnessed this wedding reception in the game and started to sweat profusely.
What the heck is going on with Brother Shen? She should’ve known from the moment he brought the girl to an instant dungeon quest that the situation is not as easy as it seems!
She hurriedly called Li Shen. She found that her call couldn’t get through so she messaged him instead, “Brother Shen, why did you get married in the game?! Also, why is it with great fanfare! If the paparazzi find out about your account, they can write a 10,000 character story about it!”
It took a long time before she receives a reply from him, “It doesn’t matter. I’m marrying my alternate account.”
Xiao Dong, “.....”
Brother Shen is definitely relentless.
Li Shen: Don’t tell your Lulu Jie.
Xiao Dong, “......” :)
The wedding reception naturally caused a sensation in the game. Yu Wan had no time to pay attention to what the players are saying in the forums. She was too busy revising her plan that some hair started falling off.
Soon, the day to PK Hu Jiao arrived.
In the end, Yu Wan decided to use the alternate account Li Shen gave her mostly because the blood life is strong. In addition, she bought herself equipment to reduce injuries and increase healing. Li Shen also has a bracelet that automatically returns blood. Yu Wan’s tactic for today is––try to stay alive the longest.
She and the two other planners arrived at Hu Jiao’s townhouse on time. The atmosphere in the living room is as heavy as the college entrance exam room.
The proctor is Hu Jiao who is slowly descending the stair in high heels.
She changed her hairstyle today. Her hair was coiled into a low bun with a delicate butterfly hairpin pinned to the side. She wore a pair of high waisted loose pants that ripple as she walks. She walked to the sofa and sat down, holding her cheeks habitually.
Don’t know if it was because she was going to battle with them, but her nails were trimmed and the colors changed from the last time they saw each other.
Yu Wan and the other two planners stood up and greeted her. Hu Jiao nodded and said, “I haven’t seen you in a week. How are you doing?”
Yu Wan, “.....”
She felt Hu Jiao’s words were lacking.
After everyone said a few words, Hu Jiao also smiled, “I have asked you all before if you have played 《Fearless Jianghu》 before. It doesn’t matter if you have or have not, right now, you must play.”
In the end, she added, “The computer configuration is the best.”
Hu Jiao had the maid to prepare something to eat and when it arrived, she asked each one of them with great interest, “What level are you in the game?”
The male planned replied, “I’m fully leveled up. Level 90.”
Another female planner answered, “I’m also level 90.”
Yu Wancoughed uncomfortably, “I’m level 80.”This is what she had been doing the last couple of days to level up.
Hu Jiao said “oh” and stood up, “Then we’ll start from the highest level and go from there.”
Except for Yu Wan, the other two are level 90. On the way upstairs, the two played rock-paper-scissors. In the end, the female planner won so the male planner was the first to take the lead.
Those who battle later will definitely have an advantage. Hu Jiao would be tired out from battling and they can also analyze Hu Jiao’s skills and strategies.
Because Yu Wan’s level is the lowest, she goes last. This is probably what the ancients call a blessing in disguise.
She would not only understand Hu Jiao’s foundation but also see the performance of the other two.
If both of them lose to Hu Jiao as Li Shen said, then she…..can also lose with peace of mind.
The account the male planner used is Warrior. Yu Wan looked at it and found that the equipments are similar to the ones in the account Wei Shao gave her. The account Hu Jiao used was her most decorated Sorcerer with full-level equipments.
Because it is winter, the environment in the game immediately switched to a snow scene. The greatest skill of a Sorceror is the ability to summon skeletons from the waters. Yu Wan guessed that Hu Jiao has fire charms on her that can melt the surrounding snow into water.
This way, she can take advantage of the topical environment.
After the battle started, the male planner’s skills looked to be no different from Hu Jiao’s. But as soon as they started battling, there was a big gap between them, with Hu Jiao taking the lead. Yu Wan was dazzled by what she saw. She felt that what she and the ace was playing is a completely different game.
The keyboard sound resounded around the house. The sound effects of the game have not stopped. Hu Jiao was calm from beginning to end and used her skills to her advantage.
Like what Yu Wan thought, she does have fire charms on her. It’s just Yu Wan never thought she would have so many. It is practically endless.
The male planner also noticed this and started to sweat.
Maybe it’s because Hu Jiao is a famous high-level player in the game, many players stood around the battleground watching the match in interest. What’s more, people are even placing bets.
Up to this point, Hu Jiao’s winning face is already obvious. After the last round of attacks, the warrior fell to the ground and died.
“Miss Hu is really amazing.” The male planner compliments but his expression was not good. He started at a disadvantage and the next planner was also not too happy.
Because apparently, Hu Jiao is not pulling any punches.
The female planner’s account is a max level that can heal and battle so it is all-rounded. However, the disadvantages are obvious. Because of its comprehensive skill, they are not top-notch.
Hu Jiao didn’t change her account. Because she has used a lot of fire charms, the female planner thought the battle would be easier. However, she has clearly underestimated her.
The supply of fire charms on Hu Jiao never deplete. :)
After the planner fell into a pool of blood, Yu Wan unconsciously swallowed.
En, since it is like this, she can die with peace of mind.
After logging into her level 80 account, a female disciple of the Peach Blossom Sect dressed in red clothes appeared on the screen. When Hu Jiao saw, her fingers froze and she looked up from the screen for the first time and stared at Yu Wan.
Yu Wan was uncomfortable by her stare and doesn't know what’s going on in her mind. She looked up at her and saw Hu Jiao carrying a playful smile on her face, “Fisherman's Song at Eventide?”
“En.” Yu Wan nodded,
“Interesting.” Hu Jiao smiled and looked back at the computer, “I will be changing to another account for this round.”
Ooh. Has HJ encountered Li Shen before? If so, I really hope Yu Wan can hold it down a bit. She's been leveling this account, so she should know something :o
