Sunset Cliff

"Speaking of which, I've heard there are fairies in the wild? Have you ever encountered one?"

Qiao Shanzi glanced at Fang Zelin and then asked a question somewhat casually.

Upon hearing this question, Chu Xike also raised her head and subconsciously looked at Fang Zelin.

"I have encountered that before."

Fang Zelin responded to this question almost instinctively.

He'd encountered fairies more than once, including water ghosts and underworld messengers.

In terms of knowledge and experience, he should be much more knowledgeable than others.

"And then nothing else happened?"

Upon hearing this, Qiao Shanzi immediately asked a question with some curiosity.

She was also thinking about something at that moment. Many people on the posts were saying that they risked being seduced by fairies or something like that.

He also encouraged others to try it out.

So she wondered if Fang Zelin had done the same thing.

Chu Xike knew what her friend wanted to ask as soon as she heard it.

This is clearly an attempt to find out if Fang Zelin also went to see the female demon and something happened.

"What happened?"

Fang Zelin was taken aback by these words, then subconsciously said, "I almost got killed by that vixen."

Speaking of fairies, I never encountered one when I was at the foot of Ten Thousand Blades Peak.

It seems that running into them on a regular basis isn't so easy.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Shanzi frowned slightly, her eyes filled with suspicion as she looked at Fang Zelin.

After all, she had heard that the game was incredibly realistic.

Many people even went to places like Spring Radiance Pavilion.

Before she could ask any more questions, Chu Xike kicked her.

What's this guy doing? He's asking so many questions on our first meeting, like he's checking someone's background.

After being kicked like that, Qiao Shanzi swallowed back the words that were on the tip of her tongue.

Fang Zelin didn't think much of it. After finishing his meal with the other person, he was about to pay the bill.

But then they saw Chu Xike pay the bill directly.

"If my best friend hadn't come today, it wouldn't have been a problem for you to treat us to dinner, but since she's here, I guess I'll treat her."

Seeing Fang Zelin looking over, Chu Xike smiled.

It was just a meal; she didn't think much of it.

Seeing this, Fang Zelin thought for a moment and said, "Then next time when I have time, I'll invite you back."

"OK."

Chu Xike smiled, then pushed Fang Zelin back into the residential area.

After seeing Fang Zelin into the elevator, she turned around and left with her best friend.

What kind of questions were you just asking?!

Once the elevator was up, Chu Xike immediately asked in a low voice, her words carrying a hint of dissatisfaction.

"Well... I heard that nowadays men seem to like going into the game 'Ask Tao' to have fun and stuff, so I just asked out of the blue."

Seeing that Chu Xike was somewhat dissatisfied, Qiao Shanzi immediately felt a little embarrassed.

Chu Xike rolled her eyes upon hearing this. "He's not related to us at all. Even if he went in to have fun, it's none of our business. Besides, he has some difficulty walking."

The conversation ended there; no further words were spoken, but the meaning was very clear.

The gist is that since it's unlikely they'll find a girlfriend here, having a virtual girlfriend in another world isn't so bad.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Shanzi glanced at her friend and said, "You used to be like that, but you've never eaten alone with a man before."

"I saw you having dinner with him alone, and he seemed reluctant to let me come. I was worried you'd get too sentimental and start thinking about taking care of him in the future, so I thought I could help you find out more about his character."

Chu Xike almost laughed in anger when she heard this.

My best friend really has a vivid imagination!

I had already mentioned it to her before; I felt guilty about what I said last time and wanted to make amends.

By treating the other party to a meal, I've already considered it an apology.

They shouldn't have any contact anymore.

How could my best friend think like that?

"What nonsense are you talking about? Even if I have some compassion, I wouldn't stoop to such thoughts."

Chu Xike finished speaking helplessly, turned around and walked towards the supermarket in the distance. She was going to buy some food, as she might not be able to go downstairs to eat much more often in the future.

Qiao Shanzi thought about it carefully and felt that it made sense.

Feeling secretly embarrassed, she pretended nothing had happened and chased after him.

He asked the question.

When Fang Zelin came back in, it was already dawn.

When the waiter brought hot water, Fang Zelin washed himself and glanced at the sword beside him.

"No one came in last night, right?"

It was unclear whether the sword understood what Fang Zelin said; it simply hummed.

Fang Zelin shook his head upon seeing this. When he got up, he didn't see any damage to the window, so he figured no one had come in.

The remaining silver is still there.

After washing up, Fang Zelin looked out the window and saw that the eaves in the distance were covered with a layer of white frost.

Yesterday, however, it frosted over.

It's getting cold.

Thinking of this, Fang Zelin rolled up his sleeves, but didn't feel the slightest bit cold.

"Cultivating immortality is still the best!"

No, perhaps even martial artists wouldn't be afraid of this bit of cold.

Fang Zelin turned around, wrapped the sword in cloth, slung it over his back, and then went downstairs and left.

Walking to a nearby steamed bun shop, Fang Zelin ordered a few buns and ate them while preparing to continue his journey.

There is no immortal abode on Ten Thousand Blades Peak, so we should go there.

Fang Zelin carefully recalled some famous rivers and lakes he had recently heard about.

If we're talking about well-known large marshes, Yunmeng Marsh is quite famous.

However, there is clearly no immortal abode here in Yunmeng Marsh. After all, the Great Marsh Dragon King has been here for who knows how long. If there were an immortal abode, the other party would have known about it long ago.

Recalling the conversation he had overheard between the two dragons, Fang Zelin made a judgment in his heart.

But if it's not available here, then where would be a better place to look?

Sunset Cliff

The more famous one seems to be Sunset Cliff.

Fang Zelin glanced at the map and determined the best place for him to go.

I've heard this place is extremely famous, and it seems to be associated with immortals.

Let's go check this out.

Fang Zelin made up his mind and immediately set off with his sword on his back.

When Fang Zelin left Yueyang City and headed towards the sea, he saw many people dressed as knights traveling together on the official road.

These people were either wearing tight-fitting clothes or flying fish robes, with long knives hanging at their waists.

Each of them appeared imposing and dignified.

Compared to these people, Fang Zelin naturally seemed rather inconspicuous.

"Strange, it seems like all these people are heading in the same direction."

Fang Zelin looked around at the crowd and noticed that they all seemed to be heading in the same direction, which puzzled him.
