When the early morning sunlight rises, covering the boundless sea of clouds in golden radiance, Liang Yi finally stirs awake within the courtyard. After a long-missed good sleep, Liang Yi woke up and did two sets of military boxing, feeling refreshed and invigorated. After reaching a higher realm, monks generally replace rest with meditation, and Liang Yi is no exception. Although he doesn't have much experience meditating overnight, the accumulation over days and months can still be considered substantial, thus a spirit of thrift and frugality must be maintained. In his previous life, when Liang Yi was a top player, he practiced when normal players leveled up, and was still practicing when night owls came to play while others slept. Twenty-four hours a day, he was busy with tasks, grinding, and leveling for forty-eight hours, his self-discipline made him stand out from millions of players, becoming a top player employed by countless other players and guilds. Thus, having slept soundly for a rare night, especially with his junior sister's lap as a pillow, cleared all the frustration and annoyance from Liang Yi's heart, making him feel completely refreshed. Liang Yi turned around, looking apologetically at his junior sister who hadn't moved all night. He had only intended to rest for a short while last night, but because it was too comfortable and the feeling of security his junior sister provided, he unconsciously fell asleep. Even though with their current realms, sitting quietly for a month wouldn't tire them, Liang Yi still felt somewhat guilty. Upon rising with Liang Yi, facing the morning glow, Su Youyi lazily stretched her beautiful body and smiled at her senior brother. Being so relied upon by her senior brother, she didn't feel tired at all, and watching him sleep so peacefully, she even wished this could happen every day. She was blissfully unaware of whatever was causing her senior brother's anxiousness, but she was glad she could help alleviate his restlessness in this way. Meanwhile, the little white creature that had curled up and slept at Liang Yi's feet the whole night now opened its bleary eyes, knowing it was time for breakfast! "Let's go consult Elder Zi about the 'Shadow' matter, the sooner we get the Abnormal People involved, the sooner Wan Tinggui can start the next step of the plan." Liang Yi turned to his junior sister with a smile. "Alright, but I think Elder Zi might be a bit upset with us." Su Youyi remembered Elder Zi's gruff expression when angry and couldn't help but giggle. "It shouldn't be... right?" Liang Yi shrank his neck, feeling uncertain. Elder Zi also being in Abyss Battle City was something Liang Yi knew long ago, and there was even a Purple Cloud Sect stronghold here. Besides handling affairs related to Purple Cloud Sect disciples and Purple Cloud Sect in Abyss Battle City, Elder Zi was also a frequent combatant on the battlefield, ruthlessly slaying Abyss Cultivators. Fınd the newest release on 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵~𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖~𝙣𝙚𝙩 None fell by Elder Zi's hand any less than by others. But Liang Yi, due to various circumstances, hadn't been able to visit Elder Zi, and knowing that the Sect Master was also too busy with matters there to greet Liang Yi. Compared to passing by the sect stronghold without visiting, Liang Yi really had no proper excuse to face Elder Zi. "It is fortune, not a disaster; if it is a disaster, it wouldn't be avoidable, let's go!" Liang Yi mentally cheered himself on. Neglecting an elderly person left to deal with various affairs at the sect while he, the Sect Master, acted as a hands-off shopkeeper, was precisely why Liang Yi felt too guilty to meet Elder Zi. Some people are just ; missing the first opportunity to meet makes it somewhat awkward to try later. It's not that he was thin-skinned, Liang Yi was very aware of his own thick skin; it was more the fear of being entangled by Elder Zi with sect affairs that made Liang Yi apprehensive. With his junior sister and little white, Liang Yi cheerfully stepped out of the Secret Realm towards the Purple Cloud Sect's stronghold in the east of Abyss Battle City. Crossing the city center's boundary, Su Youyi could distinctly feel an increase in the number of Abnormal People around them, as if they liked to gather in the eastern part of the city. Liang Yi found this unsurprising, as the east was where the sect strongholds were clustered, where players would pick up tasks, receive rewards, and trade with other players; thus, it was natural for there to be more players in the east. However, even in this part of the city, the distribution of sects was clearly demarcated, with Complete Heaven Sect and Senluo Wanxiang Sect being quite distant from each other—one at this end, the other at that. Though many sects' main battlefields were not here, they still maintained a presence, allowing for quick communication of any emergency situations back to the sect. The stronghold of Purple Cloud Sect was neither large nor small, with elegant and lavish buildings, truly resembling a radiant stream of purple mist, unique to the mysterious charm of Purple Cloud Sect. At least at first glance, Liang Yi found himself genuinely liking it. Now with the gates wide open, native cultivators and players of the sect were bustling in and out, the scene bustling and lively. There were those excitedly rushing to the battlefield after just accepting a sect mission, and those returning with satisfaction to collect rewards, update their equipment, or skills. They exchanged stories of amazing battlefield experiences and were also recruiting teammates to undertake certain tasks together.
