Chapter 234: A Small Change (1/2)
”Wait a second… You knew? How did you know that I was Player Yuan? And how long have you known about it?” Yuan asked Meixiu after a moment of silence since Yu Rou was too shocked to speak. ”I'm pretty sure we'd kept it hidden pretty well… I think…”
”The musical competition— that's how I learned it,” Meixiu said in a calm voice.
”The Young Lady said the Young Master was participating in a music competition, and then Player Yuan managed to obtain first place in a music competition sometime later.”
”When I asked the Young Master what kind of instrument he played during his competition, he said it was the zither, which happened to be the same competition Player Yuan had won first place, so I assumed that the Young Master was Player Yuan. It was only after the Young Lady's words just now that confirmed my suspicions.”
”So you've only known about it for a day or so?” Yuan asked her.
”That's correct.”
”Y-You didn't tell anybody else about this, did you?” Yu Rou finally asked her.
”Of course not, Young Lady. It was only a suspicion until just now, anyway.” Meixiu shook her head.
”Well… Since you already know, this will make things much easier for us. Brother Tian will need to earn money in the future, and he intends on selling some things in Cultivation Online for real money. However, it's obvious that he won't be able to do that by himself, so you'll do that for him, hence why not just anyone can do this job.”
Meixiu nodded, ”I understand.”
”By the way, Brother Tian, while you've already decided to leave the family, let's wait until the last day so we have more time to prepare. Although we've found someone to take care of you, we still need to look for a new home for you. It's the weekend tomorrow, so I'll call some people and see if they have a place. After all, I'd rather you stay with someone I know.”
”Okay,” Yuan said.
Yu Rou and Meixiu left the room to prepare dinner for Yuan.
An hour later, Yu Rou returned to the room to take care of his needs.
”Yu Rou, I want to play tonight. I've slept enough this morning.”
”Okay.” Yu Rou said as she fixed his long hair and placed the console on his head before turning the power on.
While Yuan entered the game, Yu Rou cleaned the place and left his room.
Meanwhile, Yuan summoned Xiao Hua.
”Xiao Hua, I have a question regarding something you'd said before. When a cultivator reaches peak Spirit Apprentice, they must experience 'enlightenment' before they can breakthrough to Spirit Warrior, correct?”
”That's right.” Xiao Hua nodded.
”What exactly is this enlightenment? Are there any tricks to it?”
”Why do you want to know, Brother Yuan? You're already a Spirit Warrior and even about to become a Spirit Master.” Xiao Hua asked him.
”Well… I am just curious about it since I never got to experience it for myself. Furthermore, it might help me if I need to experience enlightenment for Spirit Master.”
Xiao Hua nodded and then said, ”Close your eyes, Brother Yuan.”
