The fairies I flirted with in the game became real?!

Li Muyang, who had been supporting Yan Xiaoru as they left, didn't relax his tightly tensed body until they walked quite a distance away.

He let out a long sigh of relief.

The feeling of being surrounded and watched by the Elders of the Refinement Demon Sect in a 360-degree circle was immensely pressuring for him.

Even if the top-notch strong auras weren't targeted at Li Muyang, they still caused his heart and mind to be greatly shaken.

At the same time, he also marveled at Yan Xiaoru's wisdom.

This woman, although cold and expressionless, was sharp-minded.

The moment she returned to reality, she urged Li Muyang not to mention anything about the Immortal Sword, which was simply the smartest choice.

Li Muyang hadn't initially thought of this aspect at all.

If they mentioned that the Startling Swan Immortal Sword was in the secret realm, no matter how they explained its mysterious disappearance, it would provoke unnecessary speculation from others.

Thus, Yan Xiaoru concealed the fact about the Immortal Sword being in the secret realm, claiming it had been lost from the beginning, avoiding the possibility of suspicion and completely clearing herself of involvement.

To become an Elder of the Demon Sect at such a young age, this Elder Yan was not only skilled in cultivation but also very meticulous in her thoughts.

Indeed, those who become Elders of the Demon Sect are all cunning individuals.

Li Muyang supported Yan Xiaoru as they walked under the moonlight in the Demon Sword City.

The figures of Inner Sect Disciples in white robes wandered around the city.

But soon they received orders from the Sect Master of the Demon Sect, and these Inner Sect Disciples left Demon Sword City one after another, heading into the mountains outside of the city.

They were to search outside the city for the whereabouts of the ancient Immortal Sword.

The Elders of the Demon Sect began to search for the entrance to that secret realm within Demon Sword City.

However, Li Muyang had his doubts about their ability to find the entrance to the secret realm.

Yan Xiaoru's entrance into the secret realm was likely because the Startling Swan Immortal Sword had actively opened the entrance to return, and she had taken the opportunity to follow it inside.

Now that the Startling Swan Immortal Sword wasn't opening the secret realm, and without anyone to guide them, these people simply couldn't enter the secret realm.

As he walked down the street supporting Yan Xiaoru, Li Muyang's tense body gradually relaxed.

Yan Xiaoru didn't talk much with him, instead, she allowed herself to be weakly supported by Li Muyang.

She leaned almost her entire weight on Li Muyang, and his right arm that supported her could clearly feel the resilient weight pressing firmly against his arm.

Elder Yan indeed had substantial strength...

Li Muyang's breathing became slightly hurried.

Yet he dared not let his expression falter.

He vaguely sensed that the woman beside him was looking at his face, and should he display any lewd expression or thoughts... the Yan Xiaoru of the moment would kill him as though he were a mere insect.

Li Muyang tried hard to calm his emotions, striving to ignore the soft and numbing touch against his arm.

The two of them quickly arrived at the courtyard where Yan Xiaoru had previously stayed.

In the brilliantly lit courtyard, several Inner Sect Disciples in white robes were delivering Spiritual Medicine to treat injuries and remove demonic poison. Continue reading at empire

Ning Wan'er, who had already received the news, was anxiously standing at the entrance of the courtyard.

Seeing Li Muyang supporting her master, the young girl rushed over in a mixture of shock and joy.

"Master!"

The girl approached excitedly, steadying the unstable Yan Xiaoru.

Seeing Ning Wan'er, the Direct Disciple, come forward to support her, Li Muyang prudently took a step back and let go.

He, an Outer Sect Disciple, could finally return to his original inconsequential status.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

But as he let go of Yan Xiaoru, the cold and detached Elder Yan gave him a cold glance.

Li Muyang scratched his head and said, "Well then, Elder Yan, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave..."

Yan Xiaoru's demonic poison had penetrated deep into her bones, and she had taken the highly toxic Black Poison Heartbreaking Pill to prolong her life.

Now that she was back in reality, she needed to remove the poison immediately and stabilize her condition.

Li Muyang obediently chose to leave, making it clear he had no intention of exploiting the debt of gratitude.

He had saved the life of this death-seeking Elder Yan in the secret realm, but such a deed must be kept strictly confidential and not divulged carelessly.

Who knows how Yan Xiaoru would view her near-death escapades in the secret realm after returning to reality? Would she consider it a dark past, something to keep secret?

Li Muyang timely displayed his understanding and made his intentions clear.

In the biting cold, Yan Xiaoru gave Li Muyang a cold glance.

As their eyes met, time seemed to freeze.

Li Muyang's eyes were sincere, and his face was open, showing his compliance and cleverness.

Yan Xiaoru, on the other hand, had a complex look in her eyes, sharp as knives.

After a long while, Yan Xiaoru coldly closed her eyes, no longer looking at Li Muyang.

"...You may leave."

With a single icy comment, Yan Xiaoru indicated that Li Muyang could get lost.

Li Muyang obediently took his leave.

The atmosphere became somewhat stiff.

Having witnessed the interaction between her master and Li Muyang, Ning Wan'er couldn't help but shrink her neck, not daring to say another word.

Had Li Muyang... offended the master?

After helping her master into the courtyard and remaining silent the whole way, Ning Wan'er finally couldn't hold back and spoke up.

"That… Master, Li Muyang is still young, and often he's not very tactful in his actions..."

Ning Wan'er suspected that Li Muyang hadn't taken good care of the master in the secret realm, which could be why the master's tone was so poor.

She subconsciously wanted to say a good word for Li Muyang, her fellow villager.

To a person of the master's stature, a casual expression of disgust could determine Li Muyang's future.

But before Ning Wan'er could finish, Yan Xiaoru coldly interrupted her.

"It's not that he lacks astuteness..."

Yan Xiaoru, with an expressionless face, pushed open the door and entered the house, her voice cold as she spoke.

"The boy is too clever for his own good."

At such a young age, where did he get all these sly tricks?

Truly...

Yan Xiaoru let out a soft breath, pushed away Ning Wan'er, who was supporting her, and walked into the house as usual.

"I will be in closed-door healing, and I won't receive any visitors during this period."

"Also, keep an eye on Li Muyang, monitor all of his movements, and if anyone seeks to trouble him, you must come back and inform me immediately."

Yan Xiaoru, who stepped into the house, had a stable aura and walked normally; where was the weakness that needed support just a moment ago?

She directly closed the door and started her solitary healing.

Ning Wan'er, left outside, was somewhat shocked.

Are the master's injuries... not as serious as they seemed?

Then why did the master let Li Muyang help her all the way here?

When she saw the master, she was practically draped over Li Muyang, as if she had lost all ability to move.

And now the master could actually walk on her own?

Uh... Was the master showing weakness on purpose?

Ning Wan'er frowned slightly, although she didn't quite understand, she still took her master's instructions to heart seriously.

For her, the master was all she relied on in the Refinement Demon Sect.

Now that the master had come back safely, it was the best possible outcome.

Not only had she reclaimed the status and privileges appropriate for a direct disciple, but because the other three senior sisters had turned to other teachers, she was now the only one under the master, meaning she would receive even more resources!

In any case, now that the master was back, everything was going well again.

A long-missed smile appeared on Ning Wan'er's face.
