There's Something Wrong With This Account-Chapter 406 - : 406, 【Not as good as him】

Chapter 406: 406, 【Not as good as him】

“The south wind knows my thoughts, blowing my dreams to the West State.” This verse came to mind for Lu Xun.

This poem originated from the Southern and Northern Dynasties, but unfortunately, the author is unknown.

“This verse seems quite fitting now.” He looked at Lu Yu before him, musing to himself with a warm smile.

Xiao Long Bao, as always, was familiar and at ease, her mouth never ceasing during the meal.

Her lively chatter was a great help to Lu Xun.

Since he had decided to take things slow and approach Lu Yu in a different way, having someone like Xiao Long Bao around actually lessened his efforts.

The meal was finished quickly, with Lu Xun not consuming much. Most of it was eaten by the two women.

He could tell that the dishes were to Lu Yu’s liking. She ate conservatively, but her chopsticks never stopped moving.

After the meal, the three of them sat together chatting for a while. Both Lu Yu and Lu Xun spoke sparingly, but thanks to Xiao Long Bao’s talkativeness, the atmosphere didn’t become awkward.

Twenty minutes later, Lu Xun stood up, seeing it was about time, and said, “Let’s go. I’m going to teach you how to use energy properly.”

With that, he stood up, led the two women to one side, and began to instruct them meticulously.

Lu Xiaoyu and Xiao Long Bao were both very diligent students, and Lu Xun taught them earnestly.

At this moment, he felt as if time was rewinding, back to when Lu Yu was still in junior high school.

At that time, in Little Yu’s eyes, he was extremely knowledgeable.

There wasn’t a problem that her older brother couldn’t solve!

“Shua—” A Sword Qi from Lu Yu flew forward, under her control, it precisely curved in mid-air and hit a fist-sized stone.

“Ah! Xiaoyu, you learn so quickly!” Xiao Long Bao was stimulated.

She had been surpassed! How annoying!

Hearing Xiao Long Bao’s words, Lu Xiaoyu glanced at Lu Xun. Somehow, she felt a sense of joy.

In the past, whenever she behaved confidently in front of her brother, she was both happy and proud.

Today, for some reason, she felt the same emotions.

Lu Xun noticed her hands behind her back, lightly tapping her toes. Her long ponytail swayed gently with her movement, like a small animal’s tail.

He smiled warmly and said, “Both of you have more or less grasped the knack of it but still need to practice tirelessly. After all, actual combat and daily practice are two different things.”

Upon hearing his words, the two women nodded in unison.

Lu Xun continued, “At midnight tonight, there may be the reappearance of the Ghost King. Both of you need to pay close attention to your surroundings while I deal with the Ghost King. Don’t let other ghosts get too close to me to avoid any mishaps.”

After saying this, he assigned them a task.

To be honest, what Lu Xun feared the least was group combat. He could easily defeat a group of low-level ghosts by himself.

The reason for assigning this task was simply to indirectly give them experience points.

He had plenty of experience points available every day. There were countless ways to help them quickly increase their abilities.

With his help, Lu Xiaoyu and Xiao Long Bao could level up rapidly. While others were still slowly advancing, they had already been carried ahead by Lu Xun.

Apart from experience points, Lu Xun also planned to give each of them a paper crane.

The paper crane was included in the task rewards, which noticeably brightened their eyes!

They had all seen this iconic flying magical treasure of the Demon Sect’s rear mountain on the forum. It was incredibly delicate and beautiful.

The girls were simply unable to resist the paper cranes. It had a full-blown attraction towards them!

It felt as if by owning it, they had truly become little fairies.

In comparison, learning little tricks from Lu Xun was not as joyful as receiving a paper crane.

Lu Xun was someone who understood the thoughts of girls. In his previous life, that was why he had so many women cry and fight for him. Seeing their brightened eyes, he felt a slight sense of accomplishment.

Meanwhile, he glanced at the longswords in the hands of the two women.

Both of the swords were superior yellow weapons.

The rest of their equipment was yellow grade as well, with a few items not even being superior ones.

Given the average level of players nowadays, having a few pieces of Superior Yellow Armour can already put one ahead of many.

But in Lu Xun’s eyes, Superior Yellow Armor doesn’t mean much.

Not to mention the Spirit Stones in his Storage Ring alone could be used to buy several pieces of Blue Equipment from Treasury Pavillion.

“Take it slow, I’ll find a way to give her some equipment later. There’s no rush.” Lu Xun laughed and thought to himself.

…

…

As night fell, Ye Sui’an, standing on the city wall, felt a bit uncomfortable.

He knew that Elder Lu had a habit of having three meals a day.

He had been following Lu Xun around these past few days, enjoying free meals and drinks, making life pretty carefree.

Though Ye Sui’an was accustomed to tasting delicacies, it mattered who was the cook!

That was Elder Lu! Elder Lu who personally cooked!

Elder Lu, a figure exalted in the cloud, seemed to enjoy these mundane activities. Even this made people feel he had fairy vibes.

This made him reflect upon himself, was he too preserve sometimes?

Was he perhaps too aloof?

In any case…such spirit and posture, I am far from it.

Ye Sui’an felt like he learned plenty from being around Elder Lu, it was indeed quite rewarding.

However, he didn’t get to eat the dishes cooked by Elder Lu today, that was what felt off.

He quickly condemned himself, “Ye Sui’an, Elder Lu is your senior. He doesn’t owe you a meal!”

Though this was true, he still felt uncomfortable.

Not until sunset did he see Lu Xun again.

“Elder Lu!” exclaimed Ye Sui’an.

The cheerful Lu Xun gave him a friendly smile, instantly filling Ye Sui’an with warmth.

As for why he was not beside Lu Yu, it was simply because Lu Yu had logged off.

Though they had a full meal in the game, they were still hungry in reality. These were two different things.

They were probably going out to eat. When they returned from eating, it would already be midnight in the game and that’s when the ghosts would appear.

Thus, the idle Lu Xun came over to chat with Ye Sui’an.

And indeed, as Lu Xun thought, Lu Xiaoyu and Xiao Long Bao logged off together and went out to eat.

They had planned to eat fish out and chose a small restaurant they often visited.

The prices at the small restaurant were not expensive, but the taste had always been good, and the environment was also quite clean.

After they sat down, they ordered their usual dish, braised fish.

“Owner, serve the dishes quickly, we still have to rush back to play the game!” Xiao Long Bao cheerfully said.

And when the dishes were served, she asked curiously while eating, “Xiaoyu, do you think the fish cooked by the boss of this restaurant is good, or is Purple Palace’s better?”

When the two of them were together, they typically referred to Lu Xun as Purple Palace, like other players.

In Xiao Long Bao’s opinion, after all, Purple Palace shares the same name with Xiaoyu’s brother, it’s better to call them separately.

Lu Yu picked up her chopsticks, took a bite of the braised fish, and said flatly, “They’re about the same.”

As she said this, she stirred the rice in the small bowl with her chopsticks and slightly pursed her lips.

She was not telling the truth.

“It’s not as good as what he makes.” she thought to herself.
