Chapter 171: Back to Hong Wu Sect (1/2)
Alex set up his new, expensive laptop. He was really fascinated by how good the laptop was. He quickly set up everything required for his school and used it for a bit.
At around 3 PM, Hannah asked him to go eat something.
”Oh, this is quite tasty,” Alex said as he ate the stir-fried noodles.
”Right, Vinny taught me this recipe. I try to eat this whenever I can,” Hannah said.
”Oh yeah, sister, when is dinner? By what time should I log out?” he asked.
”Dinner? Don't worry about it. I will set quite a lot of it now and put it in the fridge. You can heat it up in the microwave whenever you want and eat it,” Hannah said.
”Oh, That is quite convenient,” he said.
”Yeah, we've been doing that ever since the game arrived more than 2 months ago.”
After finishing his food, Alex went back to his room, while Hannah remained for a little longer to prepare the dinner. Alex took out his new helmet and quickly found a socket to plug it into. With everything set, he laid down in his comfy bed, put on his helmet, and logged in.

Alex opened his eyes inside the house. He looked around, and then looked at the time. ”I guess it's time for me to leave,” he thought out loud.
”Master, I'm leaving soon.” He sent out a message on a communication talisman meant for his master. He expected his master to come and give him a farewell, but instead, he just got a message telling him to meet his senior brother before leaving.
”Guess, I'll just go say my farewells to Senior Sister, or who knows how much she will beat me when she meets me next.” He laughed to himself and made his way to Luo Mei's house.
There was barely anyone on the mountain, and those that were didn't bother with him. Only after walked higher up the mountain did he have to change his aura to not be noticed by others.
He found Luo Mei still inside her house, learning some sort of book.
”Oh, Junior Brother, you're here,” she said. He looked around and didn't find Meng Yun, who usually was with Luo Mei. 'Is she logged out?' he wondered. Based on her speed of cultivation, she could only be a player who had joined the Tiger sect from very early on.
As to give her her privacy, he hadn't asked or even talked about it with Meng Yun. After, she was just playing a game like him.
”Are you ready to leave, Junior Brother?” she asked.
”Yes, that is what I came to say, Senior Sister,” he said.
After a couple of exchanges, he bade farewell walked down the large, main road straight to the gate. There, he asked an Elder and was taken to his Senior Brother.
”Oh, you're leaving already?” Liu Xun asked when he saw Alex ready to leave.
