23. Wind Passes Without Trace

The perspective shifts, and the scene turns to the Death Game, "Wind Passes Without Trace."

The Forest located at the border of "Changqing" and "Qiao".

It was already night on the second day of the Game, and Wind Passes Without Trace and Swallow Among Flowers were drinking and eating meat in Bamboo House in the woods.

Swallow Among Flowers: "Little brother, your grilling skills are absolutely amazing!"

"This wine has a wonderful aroma; it's the first time I've ever tasted anything like it. It's truly excellent!"

Swallow Among Flowers is short in stature, but quite good-looking, with a beauty mark near her eye.

Dressed in black with red swallows embroidered on the cuffs, he was enjoying the meat roasted by Wind Passes Without Trace and the wine he had taken from the system. He was thoroughly enjoying himself.

Wind Passes Without Trace watched Swallow Among Flowers with amusement. Her long black hair swayed in the wind, and the firelight reflected on her face. She was in a very good mood. She raised her glass, took a sip of wine, and said, "Master, this grilled meat of mine was specially developed to make girls happy!"

"Also, just call me Wuhen. After all, you are my master, and we should respect that seniority!"

Upon hearing this, Swallow Among Flowers put her arm around Wind Passes Without Trace's shoulder and said, "Truly a role model for us all!"

"Our Fengliu Sect is already short of talent due to being opposed by Gate!"

"Meeting you today, not only did you offer your help, but we also found we share the same ideals and beliefs. You are a rare talent in our sect!"

"I'm overjoyed that you've joined my 'Fengliu Sect'!"

"I see you have extraordinary Talent, a rare find indeed. I'll first teach you my school's kung fu and secret techniques!"

"When you return with me to the sect that lives in seclusion in the mountains one day, and meet my master who is in seclusion, I will introduce you to my master!"

"Our Fengliu Sect has never cared about worldly formalities. Since we're kindred spirits, let's call each other brothers!"

Wind Passes Without Trace replied, "No, no, I have long admired Senior Swallow Among Flowers. It is already an honor to have received your guidance! How could I dare to address you as a brother?"

"In that case, since Senior Swallow Among Flowers doesn't mind, let's each discuss our own points!"

"I'll call you Master, you call me Brother!"

Swallow Among Flowers burst into laughter upon hearing this. "Hahaha, what a fine example of each person having their own opinion!"

"Good, good, good! Cheers, bro!"

Wind Passes Without Trace: "Cheers, Master!"

Wind Passes Without Trace squinted his peach blossom eyes, raised his wine glass, and drank the wine in one gulp.

What happened before Wind Passes Without Trace met Swallow Among Flowers?

As the Game began, Wind Passes Without Trace was teleported to the heart of the "Changqing" Great Forest.

On the first day, Wind Passes Without Trace encountered a crazy Elder who mistook Wind Passes Without Trace for his son and wanted to teach him the Wind Passes Without Trace Turtle Skill and Toad Skill.

After practicing the Turtle Skill, a thick callus will form on the body, so that ordinary punches and kicks will not hurt or itch. At the highest level, it can even make one invulnerable to swords and spears.

Toad Skill is an internal martial art. It involves placing both hands and feet on the ground, channeling Internal Energy into the legs and feet, and then launching oneself out in an instant with astonishing explosive power. It is an extremely powerful offensive martial art.

Although the name isn't very appealing, it's still a top-tier Martial Arts.

But Wind Passes Without Trace decisively refused.

The Wind Passes Without Trace, thinking to himself, "Both of these skills make me look uglier the more I practice them. If I actually learn them, how am I supposed to pick up girls?"

He's a Wind Passes Without Trace, a complete scumbag who has deceived countless girls.

Although I've only played six Death Game, I relied solely on my looks and eloquence to deceive female NPCs and Player, using them to protect myself and attack my opponents!

In his view, girls were merely a means to an end.

His philosophy of life was also. "To die beneath the Mu Dan blossoms, even as a ghost, is to be romantic."

If you can't flirt with girls in Death Game, what's the point?

Therefore, it is entirely understandable.

That night, Wind Passes Without Trace found a Bamboo House in the Woods with an old woman inside. After completing a simple Type-B Mission and obtaining the Bruise and Injury Pill Recipe and 50 Points, he continued his journey through the Woods the next day and encountered Swallow Among Flowers!

At that moment, a woman was chasing Swallow Among Flowers. The two looked like they had been running for a long time and were clearly exhausted!

Wind Passes Without Trace saw that the woman was quite pretty and became lustful, so he went to harass her.

Perhaps it was because Wind Passes Without Trace was indeed handsome, eloquent, and good at charming girls that the woman was distracted.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Swallow Among Flowers successfully ambushed the woman, drugged her, tied her up, and escaped the pursuit.

Swallow Among Flowers, seeing the Wind Passes Without Trace a trace and the elegant appearance of the woman, couldn't help but chat with her, finding her talent rare.

This conversation was like finding a kindred spirit from the ends of the earth!

Those two perverts met and hit it off incredibly well.

As a result, Swallow Among Flowers and Wind Passes Without Trace became sworn brothers, Wind Passes Without Trace directly became Swallow Among Flowers's disciple, wanting to learn the flower-picking techniques of the Fengliu Sect!

After several rounds of drinks, Swallow Among Flowers, exhausted from escaping the Woods had been chasing her, began to meditate and rest.

Wind Passes Without Trace then began studying the books that Swallow Among Flowers had given him.

It turns out that the martial arts techniques of the Fengliu Sect are not as evil as those depicted in movies and TV dramas.

Its main focus is on internal energy cultivation, lightness skills, Hidden Weapon, and Drugs!

Internal energy cultivation can strengthen the body and improve health. During sexual intercourse, it can have the effect of replenishing yin and yang, but the effect is not as good as imagined.

The lightness skill "Shadow Fragrance" is truly exceptional; the user is as light as a swallow and can easily scale walls and rooftops!

After all, doing something that everyone would condemn is basically a death sentence if you get caught!

The fact that the Fengliu Sect is still barely surviving to this day is largely thanks to the successive sect leaders who have been researching and improving their lightness skills.

The Hidden Weapon are designed for both poison-like attacks and escape, and are used for ambushes and getaways.

The Drugs consisted of various sedatives and Drugs.

The main method of flower picking still relies on the original alluring fragrance.

The purpose of the Drugs is to keep the disciples of the sect physically strong, so that they won't be too weak to run when being chased.

After reading a few books, Wind Passes Without Trace found them increasingly interesting and felt he had found the right mentor.

Looking at the two tasks he had already accepted in the system, he couldn't help but smile happily.

If he helps Swallow Among Flowers complete the "flower picking" task, he can leave the Game at any time within 50 days. Wouldn't that allow him to indulge in all sorts of pleasures?

Haha, if you really encounter danger, you can just leave the Game —it's so awesome!

Then you can even use the reward to directly kill two Player!

Wind Passes Without Trace had already made up his mind: to kill Lu Fengzi and Qiyu!

The former is because he embarrassed himself at the beginning of the Game.

The latter was because Wind Passes Without Trace saw Yimo and Qian Baitao being affectionate, and because Qian Baitao was pretty, he became jealous!

Qian Baitao's Location has now disappeared from the System Map.

In Wind Passes Without Trace's opinion, it must be because Yimo didn't take good care of the seriously injured Qian Baitao, who died right at the start of the Game!

Wind Passes Without Trace: "Hey, look, even those Strawberry aren't interested in me."

"The falling flowers are full of affection, but the flowing water is heartless!"

"You're dead now, so that's fine."

"However, your lover Qiyu is still alive!"

"Don't worry, Strawberry, I will definitely kill Qiyu and let you two meet down there."

"Haha, I'm so gentle!"

Is the Wind Passes Without Trace of gentleness?

That's because they simply thought Qian Baitao was G-ranked and there was no hope, so they directly shifted their focus to other pretty NPCs.

He wouldn't give up an entire Forest for a single flower.

Of course, this is only a tentative goal.

Wind Passes Without Trace, this plan is only temporary.

According to Wind Passes Without Trace's analysis, if anyone could complete this Number One Under Heaven task, then Lu Fengzi has the highest probability of succeeding!

His current goal is to learn the skills of the Fengliu Sect as soon as possible, and then help Swallow Among Flowers find Princess of Houyun and successfully seduce her!

He'll go to Huashan Sword Debate Tournament himself and join in the fun. If any Player manages to win the title of number one in the Number One Under Heaven and complete the task, he'll immediately use the system reward to kill that Player!

The thought of other Death Game going to great lengths to become Number One Under Heaven, only to be killed by him at their most joyful moment, filled Wind Passes Without Trace with a little pleasure. "Hahaha, that's so wicked!"

"That's decided!"

"Qiyu and Lu Fengzi, you just wait!"

"No matter how powerful you are, can you Resistance being wiped out by the system?"

Wind Passes Without Trace muttered to himself, then quickly looked at Swallow Among Flowers: "Master, I've long heard that you're interested in that Princess of Houyun!"

"I've also heard that Princess of Houyun is a rare beauty!"

If you pull off this job, you'll truly be remembered for all time!

Swallow Among Flowers: "Hahaha, I'm afraid he'll be infamous for eternity!"

"But for our 'Fengliu Sect,' the angrier the world gets, the more comfortable we are!"

"The greater the reputation of a thief, the greater the honor!"

Wind Passes Without Trace: "Master, do you now know the location of Princess of Houyun?"

First and foremost, we still need to find Princess of Houyun; otherwise, there's no point in thinking about it anymore!

Swallow Among Flowers narrowed her eyes upon hearing this, revealing a smug smile, "Little brother, although our Fengliu Sect has a bad reputation, we do have some admirers!"

"Don't worry, Princess of Houyun is already in the 'Qiao' Kingdom!"

"Next, I'll show you the connections of our Fengliu Sect!"

"Soon, we'll find the location of that 'Shiyue Yunmiao'!"

"Once we find it... hehehe!"

"After this job, I might be able to retire!"

Upon hearing this, Wind Passes Without Trace chuckled as well, as if victory in the Game was already within reach.

Three days later, there are 29 days left until the Huashan Sword Debate.

Location: Outside "Chama City".

Yun Yi and Mo rode their horses ahead, while Zhenling drove the carriage behind them, with Yimo in the passenger seat chatting with Zhenling.

Why did they switch from riding horses to riding in a carriage?

Because Yimo's butt really couldn't take it anymore!

He truly never imagined that in this Game set against Wuxia backdrop, his own buttocks would become the biggest Game!

The carriage was "borrowed" from Horse Bandits.

Yimo felt bad letting Zhenling drive the carriage outside, so he sat next to Zhenling, chatting with her to keep Zhenling company and occasionally showing off his hidden Sleeve Universe to relieve her Zhenling.

Yimo, being a virtual streamer by profession, told stories with great skill, making the three-day journey not only not boring but also exceptionally interesting.

Even Yun Yi would always eavesdrop, and would join in the fun whenever he had a spare moment.

They finally arrived at "Chama City," but before they could even enter, they were surrounded by a group of people at the city gate. One of the burly men shouted at the crowd, "Help! Help!"

"Look at the spectacle! Another Martial World arts master has challenged a duel at the city gate tower!!!"

P. S. Just a quick rant: I wrote over 3,000 words yesterday, all about the plot after Wind Passes Without Trace started the Game.

I looked at them myself and thought they were really boring, so I deleted them all. Today's chapter is a new one, so it's shorter.

Compared to a minor character like Wind Passes Without Trace, writing about Yimo feels much more meaningful!
