Early morning the next day.
"Tian Tian, it's time to wake up. The sun's almost up."
"Wuu … no … I still need to sleep for a bit more …" Tian Tian resisted in her sleep, but she still slowly opened her eyes as she slowly woke up. In her vision was an unfamiliar ceiling. Only then did she remember that this was her new home and her new bed. Today was the first time she had woken up in her new home.
Ling Chen carried her to the edge of the bed and brought her clothes over, "Come, put on your clothes and go eat breakfast. After breakfast, I'll take you to see the big sisters you haven't seen in a long time. "
"Ah? Really? "Tian Tian immediately woke up. Of course, she knew who the 'big sisters' Ling Chen was talking about were. She hadn't seen them for more than 10 days, and she had missed them. She raised her head and looked at Ling Chen's face … Ling Chen was wearing light-coloured casual clothes, and he looked much more lively and lively than yesterday. He had a slight smile on his face, and although it was very light, it was a very natural and warm smile … yesterday, Ling Chen had smiled at her the entire time, but that smile had been incredibly forced and shaky, and it didn't have the warmth and carefreeness that she was familiar with. Instead, it had caused her to feel fear and heartache …
Looking at the current Ling Chen, Tian Tian couldn't help but fall into a daze. Tidy hair, gentle and loving eyes, handsome clothes, and a warm and doting smile … She felt as if she could see her older brother in front of her again.
Facing Tian Tian's dazed gaze, Ling Chen tapped his nose, "Tian Tian, why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face? "
Tian Tian shook her head as she said in a daze, "Big brother, you … you're different from yesterday."
"Really? What's different? "Ling Chen asked as he smiled.
Tian Tian's eyes became hazy as she earnestly said, "Big brother today looks even better than yesterday, and I like him even more."
"Haha!" Ling Chen laughed. Of course, he knew what had changed. Last night, his state of mind had greatly changed. When Ruoruo left, his heart followed her. When he obtained that sliver of hope, he took back all of his heart, all of his pain and depression. This was because Shui Ruo wanted him to smile every day and be truly happy. Only by maintaining this sort of perfect state would he be able to create miracles and bring Shui Ruo back one day. Only then would he be able to truly take care of Tian Tian.
He picked up Tian Tian and placed her on his knees, hugging her as if she was a baby, "Tian Tian, Ruo Ruo's gone, so of course we'll all be very sad. But I believe that even if Ruoruo loses her life, she will still be by our side, watching over us. Because how could she bear to leave us? So, if we are depressed and in pain every day, Ruoruo, who is always by our side and watching over us, will be just as sad as we are. What she wants most is for us to be happy and happy all the time. Only then will she be as happy as we are. As such, Tian Tian, we need to think of Ruo Ruo and be happy every day, alright? "
Before Ling Chen could finish speaking, Tian Tian's tears had already started to fall. After he finished speaking, Tian Tian buried her head in his embrace and started to cry. Right now, Ling Chen was her only support, her only family. What she was most afraid of was that he would one day do something stupid because he missed Shui Ruo too much. What she was most worried about was that he would never be truly happy again. Now, as she listened to his words and watched him smile as usual, she felt as if her heart was about to melt …
For Ling Chen to be able to think like this and say like this, to her, was the happiest thing in the world.
… …
Mystic Moon world.
The number 1 player on the Player Level Rankings was LV28, but there was no longer the 'Ling Tian' on it. In fact, even the Sword Emperor 'Feng Xie Yu' had disappeared from the Player Level Rankings.
The previous number 1 player on the Heaven Rankings, and the current number 1 player on the Heaven Rankings, had all stopped advancing, and had even been removed from the Heaven Rankings. This caused countless players within and outside of China to discuss and speculate. These days, the chaos in Beijing had calmed down a bit, but the news of a person called 'Ling Chen' had never stopped. Now, almost everyone in Hua Xia knew this name. However, the fact that Ling Chen was the 'Ling Tian' of the virtual world had not been spread by the Long family. Apart from a limited number of people, not many people knew about it. This was because Ling Tian's fame and influence in the virtual world was too great. The Long family had to consider the consequences of publicizing the relationship between Ling Chen and Ling Tian.
On the Guild Rankings, the number 1 player was the Yan Huang Alliance.
As for the "Heart's Dream" that Ling Tian had created, there was no longer a trace of it. The top 10 Guild Rankings were now full. This meant that even if Heart's Dreams obtained another Guild Creation Token and rebuilt Heart's Dreams, it would never be able to enter the Guild Rankings again. However, on the day that Heart's Dreams was destroyed, Ling Tian did not appear. Even now, there was no news of Ling Tian appearing, let alone taking revenge on the Yan Huang Alliance. It was as if he had disappeared from the Mystic Moon world. As such, the news that Ling Tian's real life identity had been discovered by Long Tian Yun and that he was taking revenge quickly spread. As time passed, more and more people believed it.
East of the Azure Dragon City, at the edge of the Forest Region, in a deserted corner.
It had been 11 days since they had last seen Ling Tian.
In the first three days of these eleven days, Ling Tian, his siblings, and Mu Bing Yao seemed to have vanished into thin air. They grew more and more terrified as the days went by. Three days later, the news that they received was like a bolt from the heavens …
The nightmares came one after another. Ruo Ruo was dead, and no one knew if Ling Tian and Tian Tian were dead or alive. Afterwards, even their Heart's Dreams had been destroyed …
They didn't know how they had survived these past few days. Perhaps the only consolation was that Mu Bing Yao's injuries were getting better day by day.
Today, they had agreed to meet in the game to search for tomorrow. However, they did not choose to meet in the Northern Residential District, where they had previously met. That place still belonged to them, but now that they saw that small house, their hearts ached to the point of suffocation.
Yun Meng Xin arrived first, still wearing a white veil. This had become a habit that she could not change. Then came Su 'Er, Xiao Qi, and Mu Bing Yao. Although Mu Bing Yao's injuries had not fully healed, she was in good spirits, and entering the game world was no problem at all.
This was the first time that they had officially met up after hearing the bad news. These days, none of them were in the mood to do anything. Their hearts were filled with the pain of Ruo Ruo's death, and they were deeply worried about Ling Tian and Tian Tian's safety.
"Big sister Mu, are your injuries better?" Yun Meng Xin softly asked when she saw Mu Bing Yao. Originally, the four of them had countless things to talk about, but now that they had reunited, the atmosphere was quite heavy. Originally, she had been quite surprised as to why Mu Bing Yao had joined them. Now, she understood that Mu Bing Yao and Ling Tian had known each other for a long time. However, none of this mattered anymore. At the very least, no matter if it was Ling Tian or Mu Bing Yao, they had both come to help her.
Mu Bing Yao nodded. Her expression and eyes were even colder than before.
"Big sister Mu's injuries have healed quite quickly, and she doesn't need me to take care of her anymore." Xiao Qi said, a deep look of worry on her face, "I just don't know how big brother Ling Tian and Tian Tian are doing …"
"Big sister Mu, is big brother Ling Tian really alright? Is he safe now? "Su 'Er asked timidly. Over the past few days, she had lost count of how many times she had secretly cried. Two days ago, when she received the news that Ling Tian was not dead and had disappeared in the Central Plains, she had cried her heart out, causing her parents to be flustered and confused.
That day, after Ling Chen had arrived in Zhong Zhou and contacted Gui Ya, Gui Ya had immediately told Mu Bing Yao so that she wouldn't be worried. After Xiao Qi found out, Su 'Er and Yun Meng Xin also found out. To them, this was the best news they had received in the past few days. However, despite this, they were still deeply worried …
This was because Ling Chen was now the most wanted criminal in the entire country. Even a 3 year old child would know his face and 'crimes'. Now, in the vast land of Hua Xia, it would be difficult for him to find a place to live. How would he spend the rest of his days …
"He's fine, and he's in a very safe place right now." Mu Bing Yao said. If it wasn't for the fact that her body hadn't fully recovered, she would have rushed to his side to make sure that he was fine and protect him at all times. She knew that although he didn't die, Shui Ruo's death had given him a blow that would make him feel more pain than death for a very long time.
"That's great … I just don't know when we'll be able to see him again …"
The girls all fell silent. It had been 11 days, but it felt as long as 11 years. Just when would she be able to see him again … When she saw him again, would he be dispirited beyond recognition? Would he never smile again? Would he never have that spirited expression again? Would he never have that loathsome arrogance and flamboyance that made people infatuated with him …?
Just then, an identical sound system beeped in every girl's ears.
"Ding … your friend 'Ling Tian Tian' has come online."
"Ding … your friend 'Tian Tian Tian Tian' has come online."
This was a normal system announcement, but to the 4 girls, it was like a dream from another world. They were all stunned, and then they did almost the same thing in unison … They picked up their communicators and hurriedly connected the call to that familiar name that seemed to have left them for a long time …
"Big brother Ling Tian … big brother Ling Tian …"
"Big brother Ling Tian … where are you … I'm Qi Qi!"
"Ling Tian, you … you …"
"Master …"
These 4 girls all had very different personalities, but their expressions were all very similar. Their voices were all slightly trembling, and their eyes were all slightly misty.
Just as Ling Chen came online, his communication device continuously sounded out, but they were all very familiar voices.
Bing Yao's, Meng Xin's, Qi Qi's, Su Su's …
Everyone's voice was so agitated that they were at a loss. There were too many emotions and throbbing in their voices. These voices formed a warm current that slowly flowed into Ling Chen's heart. In just 10 or so days, everything had changed … he picked up his communication device and smiled as he said, "I'm back, I missed you guys. How are you?"
