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

Chapter 317 Black Mud Swamp



“Brother Li, Sister Yu Chan, I’m leaving now.”

A Flying Boat hovered above the sea of clouds, below was a remote small city, where the governing place of the hometown of the border town youth Guan Xiaoshun was located.

The mountain village where Guan Xiaoshun’s family lived was even more remote, nestled in the depths of rugged mountains.

Originally, Li Muyang and Ning Wan’er had decided to personally escort Guan Xiaoshun to the doorstep of his village with the Flying Boat, delivering him home under the watchful eyes of the villagers and kin.

Under the rule of the Refinement Demon Sect, even the villagers in the mountains held deep awareness of the might of the Demon Sect.

Having two Direct Disciples transport Guan Xiaoshun home with such a rare Magic Artifact as the Flying Boat was a treatment that undoubtedly meant returning home in glory, making a grand impression.

Li Muyang didn’t like showing off, as he was more reserved by nature.

Yet he didn’t mind helping a friend make a grand entrance and shine for their family.

But although Guan Xiaoshun was grateful for this kindness, the youth still declined.

“It’s too grand, I’m afraid it might scare them.”

Guan Xiaoshun, scratching his head embarrassedly, said there was no need to specifically take him back to the village. It would be fine to set him down near their village when passing by the nearby county, from where he could return on his own.

Since the youth had declined, Li Muyang no longer insisted.

So, upon arriving at the remote Black Swamp City, the Flying Boat made a temporary stop, and after Guan Xiaoshun earnestly bid everyone farewell, he rode the Escaping Light down towards the ground.

Even without the privilege of being sent home by a Direct Disciple, Guan Xiaoshun’s status at the Foundation Establishment Realm was enough to make a shining return to his village.

Moreover, Guan Xiaoshun, who had been frugal for years and had a shrewd business mind, had saved quite a sum of money.

One could imagine that his return home this time would certainly be in high spirits, bringing joy to the entire family.

Watching the cheerful departing figure of Guan Xiaoshun, Li Muyang sighed with mixed emotions.

While others returned home in joy and delight, he had no home to return to.

His affordable sister Li Yuechan came over with a giggly smile, saying, “What’s wrong? Bro, you can’t bear to see Xiaoshun leave?”

“I and Sister Ning, two charming and stunning beauties, are keeping you company. Aren’t you happy?”

Li Muyang glanced sideways at his affordable sister, saying, “Beautiful sure.”

But as for great… well, let’s just say, she’s still young, the future is promising.

After seeing off Guan Xiaoshun, Li Muyang and the others set off on their Flying Boat once again.

This private Flying Boat belonging to Yan Xiaoru was extremely fast.

In the blink of an eye, the Flying Boat cut through the sky and disappeared into the sea of clouds, leaving the simple border town youth far behind.

Guan Xiaoshun, who had descended with the Escaping Light, didn’t enter the city, but instead walked towards the village along a familiar mountain path.

The small mountain village where he lived was incredibly secluded, hidden in the vast deep mountains shrouded in clouds and mist.

The villagers were all strong-bodied men, hunters who kept the company of wild beasts.

Wearing a white vestment robe of the Refinement Demon Sect, Guan Xiaoshun, who was riding the Escaping Light through the mountains and forests, quickly returned to the village, causing a sensation throughout.

Nearly everyone in the village came out, encircling the youth with happiness and excitement, the boy fortunate enough to have been chosen by the Demon Sect from their remote village.

“Xiaoshun! What do the big shots in the Demon Sect look like? I heard those big shots can swallow the clouds and spew fog, scorch mountains and boil seas!”

“Xiaoshun! How long can you stay this time?”

“Bro Xiaoshun! Come to my house for dinner later!”

The familiar villagers encircled the youth joyfully. As the sole child from the village who had stepped out of the mountains and been selected by the Demon Sect, Guan Xiaoshun’s return had even alarmed the elder village chief.

Guan Xiaoshun also jovially shared his life at the Demon Sect over the past two years with everyone, answering all their questions.

That day, Guan Xiaoshun’s home was incredibly lively.

Although the youth originally brought many items in large and small packages, Li Muyang saw how numerous his belongings were and gifted him a Qiankun Ring.

When the boy seemingly conjured items out of thin air, the villagers surrounding Guan Xiaoshun’s home let out a chorus of gasps and exclamations.

Guan Xiaoshun happily distributed the gifts he had brought to his fellow villagers.

When he had initially left home to go to the county city outside to participate in the Demon Sect disciple selection, the travel expenses were gathered by the villagers.

The boy had remembered all these acts of kindness in his heart.

Now, returning to his hometown, he brought many gifts. They might not have been expensive, but they were definitely what the villagers needed most.

Guan Xiaoshun’s parents sat beside him, smiling, as they watched their son distribute gifts with pride and joy.

The commotion continued until late into the night, when the villagers began to disperse gradually.

Lying in his small wooden bed, Guan Xiaoshun inhaled the familiar scents in the air, and listened to his parents’ joyful conversation in the next room, which lasted until after midnight, before the honest frontier youth quietly got up.

He quietly pushed open the door and stepped outside, making his way into the vast, wild mountains behind the village under the cover of the dark night.

Following a strange river in the mountains, filled with sludge and blackened water, Guan Xiaoshun steadily ventured deeper into the mountain range.

He didn’t fly on Escaping Light but rather walked through the river, stepping on the muddy bottom, advancing into the mountains.

After walking for more than an hour, the boy finally saw the familiar black lake.

The surface of the pitch-black lake was covered with a thin veil of white mist.

The villagers said that there were terrifying demons in the black lake that one should not approach, for fear of losing one’s mind.

But Guan Xiaoshun was not afraid.

He stood by the desolate and silent lake, rubbing his hands together, and called into the depths of the fog.

“Senior! Are you still there? It’s Guan Xiaoshun, I’ve come back!”

Guan Xiaoshun stood by the lake and shouted for a long while.

However, the pitch-black water remained still, and the fog on the lake’s surface seemed to freeze, motionless.

The boy felt a little disappointed. “Has Senior already left…”

The reason he had mustered the courage to go beyond the mountains to participate in the Demon Sect disciple selection was because the mysterious senior in the black lake had said he possessed a little bit of cultivator talent, albeit very poor.

But having any cultivator talent was enough for the boy.

He didn’t want to be a great person; becoming a Demon Sect disciple, even just an Outer Sect Disciple, was enough for him.

It could be said that it was the casual comment from the senior that had changed his life.

If he hadn’t steadfastly gone to participate in the Demon Sect disciple selection, he never would have gained his current cultivation level.

Disappointed, Guan Xiaoshun stood by the lake for a long time with no response, and finally, he decided to turn and leave.

But the moment he turned around, he saw a pale man standing there, an appearance he hadn’t noticed before.

The man had a deep, bone-deep wound on his chest, through which one could even vaguely see his beating heart.

Their eyes met, and Guan Xiaoshun was overwhelmed with surprise.

“Senior! You haven’t left!”

The joy of finding what was thought to be lost made the boy break into a brilliant smile.

He happily hopped over, saying, “I shouted for you for such a long time with no reply, I thought you were gone…”

The boy expressed his joy excitedly.

The man looked at Guan Xiaoshun in astonishment, dressed in his white robe, sensing the aura of a cultivator from him. Read the latest on My Virtual Library Empire

He said, “You little fellow… actually went to the Refinement Demon Sect?”

“And became a white-robed disciple?”
