In the haziness, Ye Xiao's ears seemed to hear Situ Yanlan's call.
A scene filled with gunfire suddenly appeared in front of him. On the messy ground, Ye Xiao stood alone, and right in front of him, the male god Situ Yanlan was looking at him with blood stains on his eyes.
"Little Ye Zi, I'm leaving. You won't have to take care of me on the way forward. You have to go on bravely alone. I'm sorry that I couldn't fulfill my promise. I will accompany you throughout my life. Goodbye!"
Situ Yanlan's voice faded, and as soon as she finished speaking, her blood-stained body began to become transparent.
Seeing the person he loved right in front of his eyes, Ye Xiao wanted to step forward and hug Situ Yanlan's disappearing body, but found that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't move forward, as if there was an invisible force pulling him.
, making it impossible for him to get close to Situ Yanlan.
"Yanlan, no! Don't leave, don't leave me alone! No!"
Situ Yanlan's body became lighter and lighter, and at the moment when it completely disappeared, a heartbreaking pain completely penetrated Ye Xiao's body and mind.
"don't want!"
Ye Xiao suddenly sat up in a coma, and Ye Xiao's face was already covered with large beads of sweat.
Ignoring the pain of damage to his internal organs, Ye Xiao looked around, but except for a wooden bed made of animal skins under him and a lonely and dark room, there was nothing else.
"Squeak!"
In a daze, the door was pushed open, and as the dazzling light from the outside world penetrated, Gongshang's figure also emerged.
"Little master, you wake up!"
The first time he saw Ye Xiao, Gong Shang asked with concern.
"Gongshang?!"
Rubbing his eyes, Ye Xiao looked at Gong Shang hesitantly. After confirming that it was Gong Shang himself, he looked around the room again.
"You must be having a nightmare!"
Seeing the sweat flowing on Ye Xiao's cheeks, Gong Shang's words were full of concern.
"Gongshang, I remember we were fighting with direwolves in the ice field, right? Why am I here? And where is this place?"
Because he was seriously injured by the Wolf King, Ye Xiao only had some vague memories of what happened after the ice field.
"You were seriously injured by the Wolf King and fainted. The place we are now is called Snow Shadow Gate!"
Gong Shang explained leisurely.
"Snow Shadow Gate?"
Ye Xiao murmured, trying hard to recall the matter of being seriously injured by the Wolf King. As he was thinking about it, his body suddenly shook, his hands tightly grasping Gong Shang's clothes, and his eyes revealed an indescribable look.
"Gongshang, I seemed to see Situ Yanlan before I fainted. She was standing straight in front of me. Is it true?"
After saying that, Ye Xiao started to get excited.
"you're awake!"
Looking at Ye Xiao's appearance, Gong Shang was about to explain when a woman's voice suddenly came from the door, and along with the voice appeared a beautiful figure wearing a skirt and smiling.
"Yanlan!"
As soon as the woman appeared, Ye Xiao's eyes were all on her. Looking at the woman's face, Ye Xiao was so excited that he lost consciousness for a moment.
"Yanlan?"
Looking at Ye Xiao's loving eyes, the woman was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter.
"Do you see beautiful women in this state? Treat the other person as someone you know in exchange for their attention!"
The sweet laughter suddenly woke up the distracted Ye Xiao, but his eyes still stayed on the woman. After all, the appearance of the woman in front of him was so similar to Situ Yanlan that Ye Xiao reluctantly looked away.
"Hello, this is the first time we meet. My name is Muxue! May I ask what you call me?"
Seeing that Ye Xiao had come to his senses, the woman introduced herself and walked to the wooden bed. The closer she got, the more surprised Ye Xiao became.
He knew clearly that Situ Yanlan had died when he was in the Ziyang Realm and completely disappeared between heaven and earth without leaving any trace.
But the woman named Mu Xue in front of him not only looked similar to Situ Yanlan, but her body and voice seemed to be carved out of the same mold as Situ Yanlan, which Ye Xiao couldn't believe.
"Ye Xiao!"
Although he was surprised, Ye Xiao still told his name truthfully. Although in this unfamiliar virtual world, it was not his style to tell strangers his real name, but Mu Xue had a face similar to Situ Yanlan,
He couldn't bear to lie.
"Ye Xiao! Midnight snacks!" Mu Xue murmured, "It's really an interesting name. Speaking of late night snacks, I was careless. I didn't let anyone serve you any food or drinks. It was my negligence. I'm going to do it now.
If someone brings it to you, please bear with it if you don’t receive it well!"
Before Muxue finished speaking, she had already signaled to the servants outside the door with her eyes.
"Miss Mu, if you can take us in and let us have a safe place to live, we will not be frozen in the ice field. We would be very grateful."
Compared to Ye Xiao's silence, Gong Shang seemed extremely polite, as if he was grateful to Mu Xue for bringing him and Ye Xiao to Xueyingmen.
"I don't think the two of you are dressed like us from Qianxue City. I don't know where they come from or what they learned from. Why did you go to the ice field to practice when there are only two of you?"
Seeing the courtesy, Muxue did not hesitate, changed the topic and asked all the questions in her heart.
"Qian Xuecheng? Isn't it Xueyingmen?"
Ye Xiao was not surprised by Muxue's question and did not answer directly. After all, it was reasonable for Muxue to have questions. If it were him, he would do the same.
"Oh, look at me, I'm so reckless. I haven't introduced you to you seriously yet, so I asked you about your origins. Please forgive me for the rudeness!"
A flash of shame flashed across Muxue's face and she continued:
"Xueyingmen is just the name of the sect founded by my father. The city where the sect is located is called Qianxue City, and it is the most prosperous city in the entire ice field.
Various forces are entrenched in Qianxue City, and they are complicated. There are countless large and small sects, and the Snow Shadow Sect is just a drop in the ocean among these many sects and forces."
Muxue introduced, while the servants outside the door brought the food and then left respectfully.
"Furthermore, the Xueying Sect is just one of the many small sects in Qianxue City. Its strength and territory are far inferior to those of the large sects in the city. To put it bluntly, the many small sects here are just vassal forces of a very small number of large sects."
After Muxue finished speaking, Ye Xiao and Gongshang both showed thoughtful expressions. They had just arrived in the Void Spirit Realm. Although they already knew from the World Destroying Heavenly Lord that the Void Spirit Realm was special, after listening to Muxue's words, they were even more...
in this way.
After all, as far as a city alone is concerned, it is a mixed bag of fish and dragons, let alone the entire virtual world.
"That's the general situation. I wonder if you can help me answer the questions I just asked?"
Soon, Mu Xue brought Ye Xiao and Gong Shang's thoughts back to the previous topic, and there was a flash of light in their eyes.
