Chapter 49 – Gaming Helmet?
Lu Changtian was stunned.
In his memory, when did he start becoming impatient when his junior sister asked him to practice swordplay? Clearly, he was the one who often asked her to spar, so why did everything change?
He no longer patiently guided her, no longer waited for Li Qingran at the training grounds every day.
Even when Li Qingran was clumsy, he used to smile and encourage her, carefully reviewing their sessions. But later, no matter how hard she tried, all he saw were flaws, stupidity, and a lack of talent in swordsmanship.
Ha...
So that's how it is.
It wasn't Li Qingran who changed.
It was him.
If Li Qingran, at the Foundation Establishment stage, truly wanted to harm Mu Baishuang, they wouldn't be able to stop her.
From beginning to end, they were just venting.
Venting their dissatisfaction because they couldn't get more.
Li Qingran always treated them as senior brothers, as family.
But they lost themselves in her repeated calls of "senior brother."
Everything became taken for granted...
Lu Changtian understood.
"Do what you will, kill or maim me, it's what I owe you." He couldn't face Li Qingran anymore, only lowering his head with a sigh.@@novelbin@@
"You, cripple your own dantian."
Li Qingran sheathed her sword and turned away, leaving only a slender, straight back.
Lu Changtian pursed his lips, clenched his fist, then slowly released it: "If... if I cripple my own dantian, can you forgive me? Qingran, can you return to Crimson Sky Peak?"
The swaying figure didn't look back.
The cold wind was biting,
Carrying two resolute words.
"No."
...
"Awesome!" In front of his phone, Chen Huaian, who had been a bit nervous, slapped his thigh, "That's exactly the feeling I wanted, a hard slap in the face, smack it all back! Hahaha! My dear Qingran, the money was well spent!"
He was really worried the game developers would pull some nonsense, like making Li Qingran soft-hearted and forgiving, coaxing her back to Crimson Sky Peak, turning it into a drama where all the senior brothers repent and chase after the junior sister.
Then he, as a senior, would probably become a tool to support Crimson Sky Peak and the Azure Cloud Sect under the influence of the plot... Just thinking about it was damn disgusting! How is that any different from NTR?
Fortunately, the game developers were sane.
[Thank you for supporting our game, your exclusive gaming helmet has been delivered!]
A window popped up.
There was a 'thud' at the door.
Chen Huaian sprang to the door, opened it, looked around, then skillfully bent down, chuckled, and picked up the box to return to the sofa.
Opening the box, inside was a black gaming helmet shaped like a motorcycle helmet but with a more futuristic look, with the game logo of "Virtual Girlfriend" on it, and a chibi version of Li Qingran beside it.
Chen Huaian slowly typed out a question mark.

The black cat beside him also slowly typed out a question mark.
Chen Huaian: "Wearing this thing on my head, it won't explode, right? Seems a bit suspicious, this game doesn't look like it requires a gaming helmet..."
Black Cat: [If I'm not mistaken... this thing is a broken immortal artifact. What's up with this boss? What's his relation to the Ancestral Dragon?]
Chen Huaian glanced at the black cat beside him, puzzled, "Why are you shivering?"
The black cat meowed, lowered its head, and awkwardly licked its paw.
It's just a little kitty, it will always just be a little kitty.
What does it know?
It knows nothing!
In the end, Chen Huaian still put on the helmet. He might not trust the game developers, but he trusted the over three hundred thousand he spent.
[Connecting to "Virtual Girlfriend"...]
The dark screen flickered.
Chen Huaian was dumbfounded, seeing Li Qingran walking step by step towards him, looking around, wasn't this the Azure Cloud Sect's plaza?
"Damn! Is VR technology this advanced?"
Chen Huaian had previously tried the latest VR helmet at an experience center, and while the visuals were realistic, there was still a noticeable disconnect.
But the "Virtual Girlfriend" game was different.
He truly felt immersed!
If there was any disconnect... there was.
Although the visuals and environmental sound effects were incredibly realistic, as if Li Qingran was really standing in front of him, with even the tiny blood vessels under her skin visible, and the sound of sand rolling audible.
But there was still a sense of a barrier.
Unable to touch the world inside the game.
Even so, Chen Huaian was satisfied.
Three hundred thousand, not a loss!
Not a loss at all!
In the future, buying a thermos for use on a plane, it would directly take off.
...
"Today, I, Lu Changtian, cripple my own dantian, first to atone for my sins, second to gain the forgiveness of Junior Sister Qingran, though I die without regret, I ask Master to fulfill my wish!" Lu Changtian stood up, just about to cripple his own dantian, when a loud shout came from above, and his body couldn't move.
"Wretched disciple! I painstakingly cultivated you to this point, and you want to cripple your dantian and cultivation for one person? Useless waste, go to Reflection Cliff and reflect on your actions!"
As his personal disciple was about to cripple his own dantian.
Daoist Qingxuan finally couldn't sit still.
Lu Changtian was his favorite disciple, with Xiao Yifeng being second, and Mu Baishuang third, not because Mu Baishuang had any extraordinary talent, but because she was good at talking and likable.
As his first disciple, how much effort had he invested in Lu Changtian? How could he watch him cripple himself?
Chen Huaian saw this and thought this was unacceptable.
The game developers couldn't resist feeding him crap in the end.
[Your character projection has been activated, you can move freely, Divine Transformation Great Perfection state remaining 21 hours.]
[You can converse freely! Please note, all your words and decisions will affect the plot's direction, your words and actions represent your image, think thrice before speaking!]
Chen Huaian saw this.
Swallowed back the words on the tip of his tongue.
Straightened his face, and coldly snorted:
"This sovereign has said, no one shall interfere in today's matters!"
"Daoist Qingxuan, don't say I didn't warn you!"
What do you think?
