“Hey, pretty. Why are you sitting here by yourself? Why don’t you come sit with us. It’ll be our treat.”
“Come sit with my friends, young fairy. We just got accepted into the Seven Spirit Academies, so we’re celebrating.”
“It’s a crime for a beauty such as yourself to be alone, come with me. I’ll spend the whole night with you.”
The white-haired beauty sighed, “I’m waiting for my friend, so you’ll have to entertain yourselves without me.”
However, the young men did not leave and became even more motivated.
‘Why must the men be even more annoying in this world…’ The white-haired beauty sighed inwardly.
“Excuse me, I’d like to get through.” A calm voice suddenly resounded amongst the dozens of voices there.
“Huh? Who the hell are you? Can’t you see that there’s a line here?”
“I know you’re horny, but wait for your turn, buddy.”
It was at this moment a powerful pressure suddenly enveloped the place, startling everybody there.
Although the pressure was only directly at certain people there and lasted only a second, it was strong enough to completely silence the entire place.
The white-haired beauty then watched as the people around her moved to the side with terrified expressions on their faces, creating a path for someone.
“Hello, you must be White Lotus.” Yuan greeted the white-haired beauty when he approached the table.
White Lotus looked at Yuan with her eyes slightly widened, and she subconsciously swallowed nervously.
“Are you Player Yuan?” She asked after a moment of silence.
“You can just call me Yuan.” He nodded.
“Can I sit here?” He then pointed at the chair on the opposite side of her.
“Please.”
Once he was seated, the people around them started to disappear, and the music resumed. However, the overall noise in that place remained quite low, almost as though the people there were afraid of disturbing someone.
“I hope you didn’t wait too long for me.” Yuan said to her.
“It’s fine, I wasn’t expecting for you to show up this early, either,” she said.
And she continued, “I was surprised when Chairman Lee called me. I never expected to be contacted by the famous Player Yuan who has remained a mystery since the start of Cultivation Online.”
“A mystery, huh? I just never had a reason to speak with other Players, I guess.” Yuan said.
“Nevertheless, I’m glad that you’d reached out to me. I have always wanted to meet you.” White Lotus said with a slight smile on her face.
“You wanted to meet me? Why?” Yuan raised an eyebrow.
“I was very proud to become the first player to have a servant, yet you’d made my achievement completely obsolete with your Divine-grade servant. Do you have any idea how that made me feel? I have never felt so humiliated before.”
“Sorry, that wasn’t my intention.”
“I know, and I am not blaming you.” White Lotus shook her head.
“Anyways, why did you want to speak with me?”
Yuan raised his eyebrows in a puzzled manner.
“Chairman Lee didn’t tell you?” He asked.
“It’s not that he didn’t tell me. I just figured that it would be better if I heard it directly from you rather than through another person. That would be more sincere, after all.”
“I see…”
“Then before I tell you, allow me to give you this.”
Yuan retrieved the Silver Spirit Grass and placed it on the table.
White Lotus looked at the bundle of grass with a confused face.
‘Why is he giving me grass?’ She wondered to herself.
“Since you’re the first Player to have acquired a servant, I figured this would be a perfect gift for you. It’s called Silver Spirit Grass. If you feed it to your servant, it will boost their cultivation speed by 50 percent until they reach the strength of a Spirit Master.”
“What?!” White Lotus exclaimed in a shocked voice.
“I know it’s not much since I didn’t have enough time to prepare—”
“I-I cannot accept such a gift. It’s too valuable.” White Lotus suddenly interrupted.
And she continued in a nervous voice, “I saw a treasure with similar effects before, but it was only at 10 percent, and it was already worth a million spirit stones. I cannot imagine how much this treasure with 50 percent effect is worth…”
“Don’t worry about it. If you don’t use it, I will have to give it to someone else since I have no use for it.”
White Lotus stared at the Silver Spirit Grass with a pondering face.
However, before she could even come to a conclusion, a shadowy figure suddenly shot out from her body and started gnawing on the Silver Spirit Grass.
“X-Xu Hei! Stop!” White Lotus shouted in a panicked voice when she realized that it was her servant that was eating the priceless Silver Spirit Grass.
But alas, the Silver Spirit Grass disappeared almost immediately.
“N-No way…” White Lotus could feel all of her strength leave her body as she watched millions of spirit stones disappear into her servant’s stomach.
“A cat with two tails? So this is your servant, huh?” Yuan stared at the cat with interest.
“I-I’m so sorry!” White Lotus suddenly stood up and apologized with her head lowered.
*Meow*
The Two-tailed Black Cat looked at Yuan with a thankful gaze.
“I will accept your apology if you listen to my request.” Yuan smiled.
“Anything!” White Lotus quickly said.
“You see, my little sister, Yu Rou, is actually a member of your faction. It is going to be her birthday soon, and I’d like to surprise her with a visit. However, I heard that your faction doesn’t allow men to enter, so I wanted to see if I could work something out with you, the leader of the faction.”
White Lotus stared at him with a dumbfounded face.
‘T-This is the reason he wanted to contact me?!’ She cried inwardly.
“Wait… Did you just say Yu Rou? You’re her brother?” She asked him after a moment of silence.
“Yes, I am. Do you know her?”
White Lotus nodded in a dazed manner.
“Hey, pretty. Why are you sitting here by yourself? Why don’t you come sit with us. It’ll be our treat.”
“Come sit with my friends, young fairy. We just got accepted into the Seven Spirit Academies, so we’re celebrating.”
