Lin Xing was sitting cross-legged on the bed, emptying his mind, practicing meditation skills.

“Lin Xing, what’s this thing that’s flying around?”

“Lin Xing, the thing this woman is selling, how do I buy it?”

“Lin Xing, what is this?”

Hearing the increasingly loud television volume and the intermittent questions…

for some reason, Lin Xing felt this was even more annoying than when the Mountain God used to eat people.

Finally, he couldn’t help but open his eyes, and he saw a graceful figure floating in mid-air, with a pair of big eyes intently staring at the TV screen.

Lin Xing always felt that the Holy Daughter of the Heavenly Will Sect had left him with a different impression ever since she arrived here.

“Lin Xing, stop meditating, there’s no spiritual energy here, what’s the point of practicing?”

Jing Shiyu pointed to the TV and said, “Come and explain to me, what is this, where can you buy it here?”

Lin Xing said, “Director Lv said that although practicing here doesn’t directly increase skill progression, it’s not entirely ineffective.

The longer you practice here, the more efficient your skill practice will be once you return to Great Zhou.”

“According to their latest trials, many of our world’s martial arts masters, athletes, and soldiers make quick progress after they go to Great Zhou.”

After speaking, Lin Xing glanced at the TV again and noticed Jing Shiyu was watching a military channel that was introducing a newly launched aircraft carrier.

He said helplessly, “You can’t buy this.”

Jing Shiyu said seriously, “I’m very rich.”

Lin Xing said, “It doesn’t matter how rich you are.”

Seeing Jing Shiyu about to open her mouth to ask again, Lin Xing interrupted, “I’ll ask them to change your room.

Don’t you think it is disturbing to have two people in one room?

I’ll ask them to find someone else to keep you company.”

Jing Shiyu chuckled carelessly, “You are my potential disciple after all, I stay by your side to protect you.”

Compared to others who have come into contact with this world, Jing Shiyu still preferred to stay with Lin Xing.

At least Lin Xing’s face didn’t carry that look she disliked.

After a while, Jing Shiyu pointed at the skyscrapers on the TV and asked, “Where is this?

Is it close to here?”

Lin Xing sighed, thinking that after all, she had helped him a great deal, and he eventually stopped meditating.

Looking at the content on the TV, he thought for a moment and said, “It’s quite far from us, but there’s a similar place nearby.

It would take about half an hour to go and come back.

Do you want to go have a look?”

Jing Shiyu curiously watched the towering skyscrapers on the TV, a flicker of interest passing through her eyes, but she ultimately shook her head, “Never mind, I’m worried I might miss the grand opening of the immortal gates, I need to hurry back.”

Watching the fleeting interest in her eyes, Lin Xing spoke up, “Then how about we go downstairs and walk around?

You’ve helped me out this time, so I can treat you to a meal.”

“Sure,” Jing Shiyu floated over, smiling, “I’ll accept my disciple’s filial piety.”

Lin Xing looked at her in her traditional long dress and said, “Maybe you should change into different clothes, it’s too conspicuous as it is.”

Moments later, Lin Xing looked at Jing Shiyu dressed in a T-shirt and long pants, her long hair tucked under a sun hat.

Though she still looked excessively beautiful, as if she’d applied several layers of beauty filters, she was no longer as eye-catching as before.

He added, “Try not to float around when we go out.”

Jing Shiyu replied, “I’m not stupid.

Do you see me floating around in the Commander Mansion?

It’s just that there are only the two of us here, right?”

Lin Xing looked at Jing Shiyu descending to the ground and asked curiously, “Can you fly?”

Jing Shiyu waved her hand and said, “Can you lift yourself into the sky with your hands?

No, right?

You can only support yourself a few meters off the ground with your hands.

Spiritual thought is part of your body, just like your hands.

So you can only hover a few meters off the ground at most; you can’t truly fly.”

Lin Xing curiously asked again, “Then you’re also a Daoist Child trainee, right?

Do you also know how to use talismans?”

Jing Shiyu explained, “To comprehend the Daoist Child’s inheritance, there are many combinations of skills that meet the criteria, and mastery of talismans is not necessarily required.

Although I can cast talismans, I didn’t learn them for the purpose of understanding the Daoist Child’s inheritance.”

The two then left the ward, and Jing Shiyu followed Lin Xing to begin touring the Quantum Intelligence Research Institute.

Inside the elevator, watching the elevator doors open and close, Lin Xing said, “Don’t randomly press the buttons with your spiritual sense…”

In the parking lot, watching Jing Shiyu circle around the car non-stop, Lin Xing asked, “Want to give it a try?

I can have them send over a driver.”

Sitting in the car, Jing Shiyu, gazing at the scenery flying by, exclaimed with delight, “Lin Xing!

This is so much more vigorous than a horse-drawn carriage!”

In the cafeteria, looking at the hundreds of types of meat dishes, pastries, and a wide variety of side dishes, Jing Shiyu said in amazement, “Do you all eat this every day?

Just take whatever you want?

Eat as much as you like?”

Lin Xing nodded and said, “This is my first time coming to this cafeteria too, after all, it’s an institute’s cafeteria, the conditions are quite good, and it’s buffet style.”

Potato beef brisket, fish-flavored shredded pork, Kung Pao chicken, sweet and sour pork loin, spicy boiled fish…

To Lin Xing, these could only be described as ordinary everyday foods, but when Jing Shiyu tasted them, experiencing the unprecedented flavorings and additives exploding on her taste buds, she felt a sense of happiness she had never felt in the Mirror World before.

For the first time, she felt that eating could be such a joyful experience.

While Jing Shiyu was happily feasting, a young man approached her, his face flushed as he said, “Hello…”

Lin Xing had seen several similar attempts to strike up a conversation that day, after all, Jing Shiyu’s appearance was indeed very noticeable, and most of the Institute’s ordinary staff were oblivious to any information about the Mirror World.

Skillfully, Lin Xing dispatched the young man for Jing Shiyu, and watching her clear another plate, he couldn’t help but say, “Eat slower.”

Jing Shiyu picked up a piece of cake and stuffed it into her mouth, her smile growing even brighter, “This is so delicious, I want to bring a few pieces back for my disciples.”

That evening, Jing Shiyu floated in the hospital room, filled with emotion as she said, “This secret realm is nothing like what I saw in the books before, your place is really nice.”

Lin Xing said casually, “If you like it, you can stay a few more days; I’ll go back first on my own.”

Jing Shiyu sighed, “There are people waiting for me over there.

Having been gone for so long, the situation has surely gotten a lot worse.”

Lin Xing recalled what she had said last time and asked, “Aren’t you, the Holy Daughter of the Heavenly Will Sect, the most powerful in the sect?

According to what you said last time, is the infighting really that fierce?”

Jing Shiyu seemed to remember something, a hint of melancholy crossing her face as she spoke softly, “Let me tell you a story.”

“Long ago, there were three little kittens in the forest.

They were small and weak, surviving only on grass and insects.

But how could they live on like that?

Just when they were cold and starving, on the brink of death, a family took them in.”

“But the family had too many cats, and as soon as the three kittens arrived, they were bullied by the others.

Thin and small, they had to scavenge the leftovers of other cats.”

“Yet, to them, this was already a blissful life; after all, they didn’t have to suffer the cold and hunger of the wild, living in constant fear.”

“But the family that took them in didn’t care for them for nothing.

Soon, the three kittens were sent out to fight with stray dogs.”

“However, the smallest of the three kittens was really too small.

She was so frail, so thin; a single bite from a stray dog could have killed her.”

“So, the two bigger kittens protected the smallest one, always hiding her from those stray dogs, far away.

They wanted the kitten to never know what was happening outside, to live happily ever after.”

“But the stray dogs were just too big, and there were too many of them.

The wounds on the two larger cats grew more numerous, their movements slower, until finally one day…

they died.”

“From that day, the smallest kitten was left alone.”

Jing Shiyu paused, seeming to signal the end of her story.

She glanced at Lin Xing and said, “Lin Xing, with your talent and temperament, it’s a waste to stay under Zhang Tiande.”

“Upon my return, I’ll always welcome you to join us.”

“But Zhang Tiande won’t last long.

The entire Dongya Prefecture can’t tolerate him anymore.

You must make haste to decide.”

The next afternoon, the familiar sensation once again surged through Lin Xing’s heart.

As the portal opened, Lin Xing and Jing Shiyu stepped in, entering once more into the Mirror World.
