Half a month later would be the day Evil Emperor would appear in the Chinese server. Happy had a feeling that the results of the Chinese players’ fight against Evil Emperor and Class One Hall would come out by then.
But regardless of what the results were, Happy wanted to try and make up to Xu Xin as soon as possible over here and complete the promise he made with her, because he did not know when Chen Kaixin would wake up.
It was precisely because of this that Happy set the date so early.
“Alright…”
When she saw that Happy had promised her and even set the date without hesitation, Xu Xin, who only wished to use her game identity to get a proof of their relationship before she began maintaining some distance between her and Happy became abashed. Her face flushed, and the redness even went straight to her ears.
“That’s too soon.”
“It’s not.” Happy chuckled and gently hugged Xu Xin again. “Now, can you tell me when you arrived, and exactly how long have you been here?”
“One month ago… At that time, I was just a little rash, and I wanted to know whether what you said to us was real.” Xu Xin seemed to have gotten used to the atmosphere and posture between them right now, and her tone became gentle. She nudged her head against Happy’s chest, found a comfortable spot to lean against him, and murmured, “Over the past month, you will only wake up every day when it’s meal time, and with every single day that passes, I would believe in your words even more, and my heart would ache even more. I know that you set a lot of your time over on the other side, and one of these days, you will completely leave us.”
When he heard this, Happy could not help but have his heart clench, he tightened his hold over the girl in his arms, and he mumbled, “I won’t.”
No one in the Chinese plains would be able to believe that Happy, the person with the strongest influence and power in the game, would actually feel a sense of unease that others would never feel.
‘Is this the price that I have to face for having an additional three years of experience?’
Sometimes, Happy would truly think like that in his mind. Was the heavens toying with him? Allowing him to have what he should not have, and when he had to face separation, he would lose all of those things?
As they shared their body heat, they gradually became calm.
After an unknown amount of time passed, the girl in his arms struggled a little before she raised her pretty and adorable face. “Happy.”
Happy gently wiped off a tear from Xu Xin’s face, and he put on an attentive look.
“It’s still too soon for your meal. Did something happen here for you to suddenly come over?” Xu Xin was a lady with a pure heart. She reminded Happy why he came over, and then, he remembered that he came here to search for news regarding Marrow Cleansing Classic.
“Yeah, I do have something to deal with.”
Happy did not want to hide anything anymore in front of Happy, so he told her some of his experiences in the other world.
Xu Xin leaned against him quietly and listened to Happy talk about the events three years later. She was also very curious about those things. When she heard about how Class One Hall had expanded, she widened her eyes in surprise, and it was very cute.
He spent a long time talking about many things, and Xu Xin listened carefully to him.
In the end, Xu Xin bit her finger and stared at the ceiling for a long time.
“Since it’s Shaolin Temple’s matchless classic, it’s definitely unlike a normal martial art manual.”
“I know, but even when I asked three Myth Realm martial artists to hit me, it’s useless. Marrow Changing Classic just won’t level up,” Happy said in a resigned but relaxed tone.
“Of course. They’re three martial artists and the beginning stage of Myth Realm. You mentioned that Tendon Changing Classic can only increase by one level after they hit you multiple times, right? Since Marrow Cleansing Classic cannot be actively used, it’s definitely even harder to train. Besides, didn’t Mad Monk ask you to practice Marrow Cleansing Classic after you mastered Tendon Changing Classic for three years. There’s definitely a reason behind it.”
“But I can’t wait for three years. If I don’t increase my strength as quickly as possible, when Evil Emperor arrives at the Chinese server, Wind Assault Tower will definitely fall. At that time, even One Emperor can’t protect himself, and it’ll be difficult for Wind Chimes to even leave Beijing. I’ll be the only one who will be fighting against Wild Wolves and Class One Hall if that happens!” Happy sighed in anguish.
It was only then that Xu Xin realized that Happy’s situation over there was completely different from this world. In this world, everything was in Mu Clan’s control, but Wild Wolves and Class One Hall were in control over there, which meant that everything was the exact opposite with this place. She thought for a while with a cute frown on her face, and she tried to come up with a solution together with Happy.
Time passed by very quickly.
The two stayed for more than an hour in the prison.
Xu Xin suddenly cried out in the quiet prison. “I have an idea. Why don’t you just ask Mad Monk about it?”
Happy thought that Xu Xin had actually come up with a good idea, and in his shock, he rubbed his shock. “It’s not that easy to ask him. Mad Monk asked me to go to him after I master Tendon Changing Classic for three years, and it’s only then that I can get Marrow Cleansing Classic.”
“But you’re his successor right now, right? What’s the problem in asking him? You might be able to get some clues.”
“But with what excuse am I supposed to use to speak to Mad Monks? I can’t just go there and chat with him.” Happy smiled wryly.
“Idiot!” Xu Xin used her head to nudge Happy’s chin. “What’s the realm for your Tendon Changing Classic?”
Happy found himself speechless. Xu Xin had just dissed him.
He sighed and answered, “Grandmaster Realm.”
“I’m not asking about your realm over there. I’m talking about over here, silly. You already told me that you can’t go out as you pleased over there anymore.”
Happy suddenly found that he was indeed a little stupid. Ever since he had someone in his heart, his thoughts had become much slower than before. He cannot think as quickly as Xu Xin.
But over this period of time, his thoughts were all focused on the other world, and he did not quite pay attention to this side. It had been some time since he paid attention to the level for his Tendon Changing Classic.
With that thought in mind, Happy immediately summoned his martial arts log and looked at it, and he was instantly stunned.
