- Liuyun Daoist Palace -
Fenghua and Yuexin returned to Tianji Palace shivering all over, and they couldn't sleep for most of the night.
Meanwhile, Xiao Yulv was reading under the light. Recently, he spent no more than six hours in the internet cafe each day. Since he didn't have to worry about waiting in line for a computer, he came and went freely.
The pattern had begun since the day that Dong Qingli came into the shop. In the last two days, he didn't even go to the internet cafe at all. Right now, he had an exquisite jade slip in his hand, and there were two ancient characters on it - Shape Transformation!
"Haha! The spiritual spells of our Liuyun Daoist Palace are indeed profound and mysterious!"
He stood before a brass mirror and used a spell with his hands, murmuring to himself, "I just don't believe that you can see through me this time!" Xiao Yulv had spent lots of time and energy on this, and now he was finally able to use it.
Shape Transformation was a high-level spiritual spell of the Liuyun Daoist Palace. It could change one's looks and alter one's aura!
While he used the spiritual spell, Xiao Yulv's eyes looked bright with intense light. "This time, I shall watch the fifth and the sixth episodes of Jade Dynasty! Then, I'll eat instant noodles and drink Coke..."
When he remembered the rich aroma of the instant noodles in the internet cafe, his stomach growled. He hadn't eaten today, but he felt elated just thinking that he could eat the delicious instant noodles in a little while.
Soon, he experienced a transformation under the effect of the spiritual spell! Not only his looks but his aura all changed; he transformed into another person!
- The Tianji Palace, the next morning -
"Good morning, Master..." Fenghua and Yuexin looked haggard, and it was obvious that they didn't sleep well last night.
Although cultivators like them didn't need much sleep, it was still torture for them to keep imagining that some monster would crawl out from somewhere during the night.
After greeting their master, they walked out of the Tianji Palace.
"Junior Sister, let's go back and get some sleep..." While they walked toward the disciple residence, Fenghua suggested.
"Aren't we going to Jiuhua City with our master today?" Yuexin asked.
"Since we don't have to wait in line in Mr. Fang's shop, we can go there later."
At this moment, Xiao Yulv walked to the front of the palace.
Xiao Yulv glanced at them and overheard them.
They won't go to Jiuhua City now? His rolled his eyes and remembered that the shop had been nice to women...
They'll lower their guard when dealing with familiar female customers! Xiao Yulv slapped his thigh when he suddenly realized whom he should pretend to be! It was a god-sent gift!
A while later, a girl wearing the high-level disciple uniform of Liuyun Daoist Palace walked from a remote corner toward a huge spiritual boat which was about to set off from the huge launching platform.
"Senior Sister Fenghua?" The guarding disciples looked a bit baffled.
"Doesn't she follow Elder Su every day? How come she's alone today?"
"Are you going to Jiuhua all by yourself?" The disciples bowed to her.
This person grinned smugly. No one recognizes me! And this new female disciple uniform is quite fitting... Well, it's a good start!
Sometime later, Fenghua and Yuexin still looked a bit sleepy but felt much better now. While they walked toward the spiritual boat, they chatted.
"Senior Sister, how do you feel now?" Yuexin asked.
"Much better!" Fenghua said.
"For some reason, I don't feel as scared as before..."
"I have the same feeling."
"At the beginning, I was so frightened. But after the scariest part, I feel less afraid..." Fenghua covered her mouth in astonishment.
"This game is designed to toughen our minds, and we played yesterday..." They exclaimed together in joy, "Does it mean that our mental strength has increased?!"
"I didn't kill any monsters yesterday..." Fenghua said.
"I just ran around aimlessly in the game!"
"But our master didn't gain any levels after killing monsters..." They looked at each other and were pleasantly surprised. "Does it mean that we don't have to kill monsters to gain mental strength in this game?!"
"Right! Didn't you notice that the shop owner rarely killed monsters during the whole play through?" They chatted while they walked toward the spiritual boat.
"Feng..." The guarding disciples greeted them and froze as they watched Fenghua and Yuexin walk toward the spiritual boat.
"How come she looks like Senior Sister Fenghua so much?!"
"Didn't she set off for Jiuhua earlier?"
"Maybe we saw it wrong..." They looked at each other and said, "The disciples who take spiritual boats must have their identities checked by Manager Yang. Since he didn't find any problems, we must have seen it wrong..."
Fang Qi opened his shop quite late around 8:30 AM. Fortunately, after yesterday's shop upgrade, the players didn't come so early since they knew that they didn't have to wait in line.
Listless, he opened the door and only saw two to three old customers coming in; one of them was Fenghua who had been scared out of her wits last night.
"You're early today," Fang Qi greeted her.
"Where's your master? How come she's not with you today?"
Hahaha! The person laughed inside, remembering how he had been recognized by Fang Qi by his voice and then got tossed out last time. It was a humiliating incident!
But now, he was standing in front of Fang Qi, and the latter didn't recognize him!
The spiritual spells of our Liuyun Daoist Palace are indeed mysterious and powerful! My hard work paid off!
Fang Qi rubbed his eyes and found that Fenghua's smile looked a bit cold. He wondered if it was just an illusion.
"Sir! Activate the fifth and the sixth episodes of Jade Dynasty for me!" He had been furious when the story ended at a massive cliffhanger in the fourth episode!
Today, no one can stop me from watching the TV series!
"Oh? You haven't watched the fifth and the sixth episodes yet?" Fang Qi took the money and looked up, but he quickly blinked and murmured, "Where's she?"
"Forget it. Xiaoyue, take the money!"
Jiang Xiaoyue walked up and looked at a figure who had swiftly dashed to a computer area.
"Isn't that Sister Fenghua? How come she came here all by herself?" she asked.
"How would I know?"
Hahaha! Xiao Yulv lounged on the computer chair and double clicked the Super Theater while crossing his legs, feeling extremely smug.
Even the shop owner couldn't recognize me. This time, I'll see who can stop me!
Suddenly, words appeared on the computer screen, [You are on the blacklist of the shop. Please exit the game and get a refund at the counter.]
"Ahh!" Instantly, he screamed like a heart-broken groundhog.
