CHAPTER 159: CHAPTER 142 SEA OF FLOWERS

At a secluded leveling spot in Black Tortoise City, stable as a mountain suddenly said:

"Let’s call it a day. I need to buy some groceries for your sister-in-law later; there’s nothing in the fridge."

Hearing this, Cool Guy promptly replied:

"Alright, I’ll drive you there to make it quicker."

Tian Ci also volunteered,

"Me, me, me, I’ll go too. I’ll get some crabs that Xiaoxue loves."

Everyone burst into laughter upon hearing that.

Everyone usually noticed Ouyang Hao’s unrequited love for Mu Lingxue.

And often teased Ouyang Hao about it.

Initially, Ouyang Hao was a bit embarrassed, but after so many times, he naturally grew much thicker-skinned.

Zhan Chen then said to Tian Ci on the side:

"Bring me some duck heads from Imperial Hall to satisfy my craving."

Tian Ci heard this and thumped his chest loudly,

"No problem."

Then he looked at the others,

"Anything else you guys need?"

At this point, Zhang Xinying suddenly said:

"Bring a fish. We’ll make braised fish for dinner."

Upon hearing this, everyone made surprised sounds.

Tian Ci grinned mischievously and said:

"I heard Feng Boss loves fish!"

Cool Guy chimed in:

"Oh~~ so that’s how it is!"

Seeing the mischievous bunch, Zhang Xinying swung her magic staff at the nearest Cool Guy, teasingly angry:

"Who said it’s for him? It’s for Zixin."

Wang Zixin jumped up joyfully and said cooperatively:

"Zixin loves fish the most."

Despite being hit by Zhang Xinying’s magic staff, Cool Guy learned no lesson and instead laughed:

"Yes, yes, it’s for our Zixin too, we get it."

"You!"

Zhang Xinying was exasperated by what he said, but Cool Guy had already swiftly logged out, leaving Zhang Xinying with no chance for further action.

Everyone exchanged knowing looks and smiles, then all chose to log out.

Wang Sijie said to Wang Zixin:

"Zixin, log out, bro will take you out for a walk."

"Sure!"

Wang Zixin nodded happily, then looked at Zhang Xinying,

"Ying Sister, what about you?"

Zhang Xinying affectionately patted the young girl’s head:

"Zixin, log out first. I’ll come find you later."

"Okay."

Wang Zixin obediently nodded and then disappeared in front of her.

Tian Ci, the last to log out, suddenly said:

"By the way, Feng Sister-in-law, do me a favor and call Feng Boss over later!"

With that, he quickly exited the game.

After everyone exited the game, Zhang Xinying hesitated, opened her contact list, and found Lin Yi.

Just as Zhang Xinying was brewing up something to say, Lin Yi sent a message.

Feng Hua (private chat): "Come to the Elf Race, come alone, don’t let others know."

Seeing this, Zhang Xinying’s face instantly blushed with a rosy hue.

What does he want to do in the game?!

Not sure why, but Zhang Xinying’s heart suddenly started racing, and her face became increasingly red.

After silently cursing herself for being useless, Zhang Xinying took a deep breath.

Then she comforted herself:

Perhaps he just has something he needs help with; I must be overthinking it.

That’s definitely it!

After finally calming her somewhat agitated mood, Lin Yi sent another message.

Feng Hua (private chat): "What are you doing? I saw they all logged out already! Why aren’t you here yet!"

Feng Hua (private chat): "Hurry over, so we can finish the dungeon early and have dinner."

The dungeon? So, he really had something and thought of her.

Seeing this, Zhang Xinying spat fiercely and stomped her foot,

Lemon Bunny (private chat): "Coming, what’s the rush #angry"

Standing inside the Elf Holy Hall, Lin Yi was stunned for a moment,

"Why so aggressive? Did I say something wrong?"

......

After logging out, Ouyang Hao immediately drove the car to the front of the villa.

At this time, Guo Shaojie (Cool Guy) and Fang Zhengrong also came out and got in the car,

"Let’s go."

"Hey, hold on tight."

Ouyang Hao stomped on the accelerator, and the car instantly sped away.

Seeing this, Guo Shaojie, sitting in the front passenger seat, looked on disdainfully,

"How childish."

Ouyang Hao didn’t feel awkward,

"I’m just in my early twenties, saying I’m childish isn’t really an insult."

Guo Shaojie rolled his eyes: "You’ve killed the conversation."

As the car passed the villa where Lin Yi was, Fang Zhengrong suddenly said:

"Something’s off."

Guo Shaojie burst out laughing:

"See, even the uncle thinks you’re off."

This time it was Ouyang Hao’s turn to be speechless.

Ouyang Hao looked in the rearview mirror, about to ask Fang Zhengrong why he was siding with Guo Shaojie against him.

But he saw Fang Zhengrong’s serious expression.

At this moment, even Ouyang Hao knew that those words weren’t meant for him.

While driving the car out of the neighborhood, Ouyang Hao curiously asked:

"What’s up with you, uncle?"

Fang Zhengrong hesitated before asking:

"Did you see the two men sitting by the road just now, wearing black trench coats?"

Upon hearing this, Ouyang Hao vaguely recalled,

"I saw them, is there a problem?"

At this moment, Guo Shaojie also sensed something amiss,

"Uncle, could the ’something’s off’ you mentioned be about those two guys?"

Fang Zhengrong frowned, as if pondering something, and after a while, he expressed his guess:

"I’m not sure if I’m overthinking."

"At first glance, they seemed like they were just chatting, everything looked normal."

"But I noticed that although they were talking, their eyes kept glancing at the villa where Lin Yi lives."

Hearing this, Guo Shaojie and Ouyang Hao exchanged looks.

Ouyang Hao thought for a moment, then pulled the car over to the side and said:

"It’s always better to be careful with some things. I’ll call that kid Tianpeng and ask him to keep an eye out."

...

"You’re finally here."

Seeing Zhang Xinying walk out from the Teleportation Array, Lin Yi quickly stepped forward and sent a team-up request:

"Hurry, hurry, I’ll take you to the next dungeon."

Looking at the clueless Lin Yi in front of her, Zhang Xinying felt quite helpless inside.

System: Welcome Lemon Rabbit to the team.

Upon successfully forming the team, Lin Yi ignored the gazes of those around and activated the [Clan Leader Authority], then said to Zhang Xinying:

"Close your eyes."

Zhang Xinying was puzzled,

"Aren’t we going to the dungeon? Why close my eyes?"

Lin Yi urged:

"Just do as I say."

Zhang Xinying rolled her eyes at Lin Yi. Although she didn’t understand what Lin Yi was up to,

she complied and closed her eyes.

Because Zhang Xinying was hoping to finish the dungeon quickly and then go make braised fish.

Just after she closed her eyes, a gentle breeze blew through.

In the breeze, there was a faint fragrance of flowers, which was very pleasant.

It was the first time Zhang Xinying had smelled such a fresh and elegant floral scent.

Zhang Xinying suddenly asked:

"Where is this place?"

At this moment, Lin Yi’s voice came from beside her,:

"Open your eyes and see for yourself."

Before Zhang Xinying opened her eyes, she imagined all sorts of scenes for this moment.

But when she really opened her eyes, she was deeply amazed by what she saw.

A sudden breeze blew past Zhang Xinying, lifting red, yellow, purple, and blue petals, swirling them into a rain of flowers gently falling from the sky.

In the warm sunlight, Zhang Xinying felt as if she was in an ocean of flowers, surrounded by vibrant blossoms.

She closed her eyes once more, stretched out her arms, tilted her head back to feel the intoxicating fragrance and the refreshing breeze, and couldn’t help but exclaim:

"It’s so beautiful here!"

After a while, Zhang Xinying finally recovered from the initial shock and looked at Lin Yi:

"Where is this?"

Lin Yi quickly averted his gaze from the girl and instinctively said:

"Flower Ocean."

Zhang Xinying was puzzled, and Lin Yi silently cursed himself as an idiot before quickly adding:

"This is the Elf Secret Realm."

Seeing Lin Yi’s embarrassed expression, Zhang Xinying secretly found it amusing.

But outwardly, she maintained a curious look and asked:

"Elf Secret Realm? What’s that?"

"The Elf Secret Realm is a special dungeon, by the way,"

Lin Yi looked at the girl who appeared even more charming amidst the flowers and smiled:

"Do you want an Elf pet?"
