"I haven’t been to this ce ever since Brother Tian stopped participating inpetitions..." Yu Rou sighed while surrounded by hundreds of golden trophies.
"Then why did the Young Lady suddenly decide to return to this ce?" Meixiu couldn’t help but ask her out of curiosity.
Hearing her words, Yu Rou turned around with a beautiful smile on her face, and she said, "Because he’ll be participating in apetition soon!"
"Participating... in apetition? The Young Master?" Meixiu looked at her with a dazed look on her face, unsure of how to think or feel about this.
"Yes! Brother Tian will be participating in a musicpetition inside Cultivation Online! Although it’s not a realpetition, it’s the closest thing we’ll get!"
"The Young Master... participating in apetition..." Meixiu mumbled with a profound look on her face, seemingly in deep thoughts.
Sometimeter, Yu Rou pped her hands together and bowed to the trophies in the room before mumbling in a sincere voice, "Good luck, brother... Let the cultivation world know of your musical talents..."
After spending a couple more minutes admiring Yuan’s trophy room, Yu Rou locked the doors before returning to her own room.
"By the way, do you want to y Cultivation Online with me?" Yu Rou suddenly asked Meixiu.
"Me? y games with the Young Lady? I wouldn’t dare..." Meixiu quickly shook her head with a scared look on her face.
"Why not? You can consider it as work since you’ll be ’serving’ me inside the game instead of the real world. Furthermore, I know how hard you work for me, so I want you to rx and have fun sometimes." Yu Rou said to her.
"But... my mother..." Meixiu sighed.
"If you’re worried about your mother scolding you, I will personally talk with herter."
"Thank you, Young Lady..." Meixiu nodded.
Although she doesn’t show her emotions often orin at all because of the way she was raised as a maid, Meixiu is also a youngdy just like Yu Rou who has desires and aspirations, and while she doesn’t show it, she’s actually quite jealous of Yuan who can y games all day, not including his condition.
"Don’t even mention it! I should be the one thanking you!" Yu Rou said as she entered the bed.
"Goodnight, Young Lady." Meixiu closed the lights before leaving Yu Rou’s room and returning to her own and immediately going to sleep, as she has to wake up earlier than Yu Rou and prepare breakfast for her.
The following morning, after his morning routine, Yuan returned to Cultivation Online and waited for Disciple Fei to arrive at his house so that they could practice with the zither.
Meanwhile, after she’d prepared for the day, Disciple Fei left her home with her zither in her hands. While she can store the zither in her storage pouch or spatial ring, she preferred carrying it around more, as it made her feel more authentic as a zither expert.
"Look! It’s Fairy Fei! She must be going to the Dragon Pavilion today!"
The disciples immediately jumped in joy when they saw Disciple Fei in the Outer Court, and because it has been many days since herst performance, it made them feel even more excited.
"Finally! I have been waiting for her to return to the Dragon Pavilion! Her zither arts must have improved even more since herst performance! I cannot wait to listen to her y!"
"Me too! I was going to train my sword techniques at the practice area, but I’ll save that for another day!"
Thus, news of Fairy Fei returning to the Dragon Pavilion spread throughout the sect like wildfire, causing disciples from around the sect to gather at the Dragon Pavilion, crowding the ce.
However, little did these disciples know that Disciple Fei had no intentions of going to the Dragon Pavilion anytime soon and that she was actually going to an Outer Court disciple’s house today which would definitely cause mayhem if found out.
"Where’s Fairy Fei? I heard that she was going to show up here today!"
"I don’t know, I saw her in the Outer Court carrying her zither, but I came here as fast as possible to get a decent seat so I don’t know where she actually went."
"Fuck! You mean to tell me that you’d only seen her walking around in the Outer Court!? She could’ve gone anywhere! What made you think she wasing to the Dragon Pavilion?!"
"Don’t ask me! I was not the one who spread the rumor!"
Amotion urred in the Dragon Pavilion when Fairy Fei hadn’t shown up even after waiting for over an hour.
While the disciples that could not afford to dine in the Dragon Pavilion could notin because they were all standing outside for free, the disciples that’d paid to sit inside the Dragon Pavilion were livid about Fairy Fei’s absence and even looked like they were bloodthirsty afterward, as they’d wasted contribution points due to some unfounded rumor that Fairy Fei would show up, feeling like they’d been yed.
Meanwhile, Fairy Fei strolled in the opposite direction of the Dragon Pavilion, slowly approaching Yuan’s building.
"Hmm? Who’s that?" Min Li noticed Fairy Fei’s beautiful figure in the distance from the window, mostly because of her Core Disciple uniforms that stood out.
"T-That’s a Core Disciple! What’s someone like that doing in the Outer Court?" Min Li mumbled to herself as she watched Disciple Fei approach her building.
"Huh? Is she here for me?" Min Li raised her eyebrows when Disciple Fei suddenly stopped in front of her house to look around, looking like she was searching for something.
A few momentster, Disciple Fei began moving again, but she’d only walked a few more steps before stopping again.
"T-That’s Disciple Yuan’s house! Is she here for him? But why is a Core Disciple looking for him?" Min Li pondered with a frown on her face.
"W-What if she’s his partner? Maybe this is about my offer to him!" Min Li cried, feeling somewhat paranoid.
Meanwhile, Fairy Fei approached the doorsteps and knocked on the doors.
