Chapter 944: Master and Student Meet Again! (2)

“Do you feel pressured?” Si Fuqing asked.

“Not really,” Lin Jihuan shook her head. “I’m just going for the experience. I plan to attend Great Xia University.”

Si Fuqing nodded. “I’ll be going there too.”

After chatting for a while and finishing their meal, Lin Jihuan said her goodbyes.

In Yaonian started cleaning up the dishes.

“What about Qingqing’s hand?” Ye Zhenmian asked worriedly. “She’s a doctor, but doctors can’t treat themselves. Can you talk to her? Convince her to hold off on the esports competition for now…”

In Yaonian placed the dishes in the sink. “Alright, I’ll talk to her. I had the same thought.”

Si Fuqing was in her bedroom, charging her gaming pod. Just as she was about to lie down, she heard a knock and turned around. “Uncle?”

“Qingqing, your aunt and I think you should rest for now. You can postpone the competition.” In Yaonian’s voice was firm. “Your hands are too important. You’re a doctor.”

“I know,” Si Fuqing replied with a smile. “That’s why I’m planning to see my master and have him treat me.”

This time, her hand fractures were more severe than Qin Yusong’s injuries back then.

While daily activities weren’t affected, it did hinder her ability to perform acupuncture and play games.

In Yaonian was surprised. “Your master?”

“Yes, he’s in the Eternity Continent,” Si Fuqing said, opening the door of the gaming pod. “He taught me my medical skills. This injury is a minor issue for him.”

“I see,” In Yaonian said seriously. “Qingqing, be careful. If you encounter any danger, exit the game immediately.”

Si Fuqing had received two new gaming pods from Yu Xiheng, but In Yaonian had refused to log into “Eternity” again.

He was worried that those people were still playing the game. Even with a new login account, a person’s brainwave patterns remained constant.

Fingerprints, retinal scans, and facial features could all be forged, but brainwaves couldn’t be.

Perhaps a Class-S psychic evolved being could forge brainwaves, but In Yaonian wasn’t one of them. He feared being found by those people again, leading to another mishap.

So, the second gaming pod went to Ye Zhenmian.

Ye Zhenmian and Jiang Changning had many common interests, both learning cooking from the in-game chef NPCs.

“Don’t worry, Uncle.” Si Fuqing gave an OK sign. “My master may have a bad temper, but he’s quite skilled.”

Despite her reassurance, In Yaonian stayed by the gaming pod after Si Fuqing logged in, ready to assist in case of an emergency.

[Welcome, S009]

The familiar greeting sounded. Si Fuqing arrived at the login space, checked her initial outfit in the mirror, and then chose a lolita dress from her wardrobe.

The system prompt sounded.

[Appearance changed.]

[Current appearance: Paper Kite]

Si Fuqing whistled at the little girl in the mirror. The best part about immersive games was the ability to change appearances at will.

Today, she decided to play as a little girl.

She hadn’t logged into “Eternity” in many years, yet the Eternity Continent seemed unchanged.

Based on the background, “Eternity” was a game with an ancient, fantasy theme.

It had exotic flora and fauna, various magical beasts and insects, and a unique cultivation system.

Players could cultivate within the game to enhance their abilities.

Si Fuqing headed to Ghost Valley, guided by her memories.

She wondered if the old man was in Ghost Valley today.

The old man had an unpredictable schedule, and sometimes she couldn’t find him.

Before reaching Ghost Valley, she was intercepted by four men wielding knives.

“Hey, little girl, this is no place for you,” the leader sneered. “Do you know what this place is? Ghost Valley! Anyone who enters dies. With such delicate skin, you’ll become nothing but bones!”

The other three men surrounded her with malicious intent.

This little girl seemed quite appealing, and they thought eating her would enhance their powers.

Si Fuqing stepped back, narrowing her eyes as her data panel displayed the NPCs’ information.

[Name: Bandit A]

[Level: 120]

[Combat style: Melee]

[Skill: One Strike Kill]

[Danger level: High]

In the immersive world of “Eternity,” players were often the weakest group.

Messing with one of the top ten villainous NPCs? Dead.

Entering some forbidden area accidentally? Also dead.
