Chapter 315 The Poetically Beautiful Qing Qian
I finally decided to walk right up to them. Once I stood right in front of Yue Qing Qian, she stared at me in shock. Her beautiful eyes carried her pleasant surprise along with a small fraction of embarrassment. After a few moments, she carefully asked, “Are you… Brother Xiao Yao?”
I stuck my hand out with a smile and said, “I’m Li Xiao Yao, my ID is Xiao Yao Zi Zai. And you are?”
“I…” Yue Qing Qian stuck her hand out as well to shake mine. Her face was bright red as she said, “I’m Nan Gong Yong Cun, ID Yue Qing Qian. Brother Xiao Yao, you’re just as handsome as you are in the game……”
I rubbed my nose awkwardly and said, “Not really, I just didn’t change my appearance… Qing Qian, are you hungry? You were gnawing on such a big cucumber in the middle of the street…”
Yue Qing Qian made a big smile and said, “Cucumbers can be used to beautify yourself. It’s good to eat a lot… um…”
She tilted her head to look at the two beauties next to me, and said in a stunned voice, “Woah, those two… are Cang Tong and Cang Yue? Wuwu… to think that Brother Xiao Yao has such beautiful girls with him…..”
Wan Er reached out and said, “I’m Cang Tong, Lin Wan Er!”
Dong Cheng Yue also stuck her hand out and said, “I’m Cang Yue, Dong Cheng Yue!”
Yue Qing Qian shook each of their hands and said, “I must have great luck today, meeting Fan Shu City’s two most beautiful women. Brother Xiao Yao, you should’ve told me earlier…”
“Oh, that… I forgot. Oh right, where’s Wei Liang?”
“She went to buy some drinks, she should be coming soon…”
“Ok!”
Nearby, someone called out “Big sister!” A girl wearing a pink dress similar to Yue Qing Qian’s appeared. On top of that, the two looked exactly the same. As expected, they were identical twins in real life!
“Ah…” Yue Wei Liang looked at me, and the drinks in her hand fell to the ground. “This… this is Guild Master Brother Xiao Yao? How handsome, just like in the game…”
I nodded and smiled, “Good afternoon, Wei Liang!”
Yue Qing Qian suddenly smirked mischievously and started tugging my arm as she said, “Brother Xiao Yao, turn around and don’t look. How about we play a game?”
“Uh, a game?”
Although quite a few people stopped to watch what the four pretty girls around me were doing, I wasn’t disheartened yet. I turned around; behind me, Yue Qing Qian and Yue Wei Liang whispered a few times. After a few seconds, one of them laughed and said, “Alright, Brother Xiao Yao, turn around!”
When I turned around, Yue Qing Qian and Yue Wei Liang stood there coyly, looking at me. They giggled in unison and asked, “Can Brother Xiao Yao still guess who’s Qing Qian, and who’s Wei Liang?”
“This…..”
I muttered to myself, then walked closer. Among the two of them, one held a drink while the other held a cucumber, but it was definitely not that simple. Then, I stood in front of the two and stared into their faces. I smiled and tapped the left girl’s shoulder and said, “This is Qing Qian, without a doubt…”
Yue Qing Qian’s beautiful eyes widened as she said, “This… How did Brother Xiao Yao tell Yue Wei Liang and I apart with just one look? Even our uncle wouldn’t be able to tell the difference between the two of us instantly…”
I pursed my lips and said, “Although you switched the things you were holding, Yue Qing Qian, you can’t change that smell of cucumber in your mouth. Aren’t you underestimating my intelligence a bit too much?”
Yue Qing Qian burst into laughter and said, “Alright, Brother Xiao Yao is just too amazing! When should we go in? Mama said that Yue Wei Liang and I have to return to the hotel by 6, or else she’ll come looking for us…”
I turned around toward the ticket booth and bought 5 tickets. Afterwards, I gave one to each girl, and the five of us entered the newly opened Xixi Wetlands.
There were quite a few people inside the park. Perhaps because of the fact that it had just rained, the grass on either sides of the road was partially submerged. The smell of musty autumn mud filled our noses, enchanting us all. We had all been immersed in the game for a whole month, so going to a park like Xixi Wetlands was a rare chance to relax. Thus, we thoroughly enjoyed the chance to get outdoors.
On the rivers of Xixi Wetlands, there was a sightseeing boat, but we decided to not ride it. Instead, we walked along the banks as we talked about the game——
Yue Qing Qian said, “Brother Xiao Yao, do you know about the Rise of the Heroes event?”
“Yup! I registered before coming. How about you and Wei Liang?”
“We’ve already registered.” Yue Qing Qian smiled and said, “The hotel my sister and I are staying at is right beside this park, so it’s really close. That’s right, now that Brother Xiao Yao has the Emperor Qin’s Sword, the Magic Spite Armor, and the Flaming Tiger God pet, you’re pretty much all set. I think that it’s a great opportunity for you. If Brother Xiao Yao can fight up to the top four, it will be an immense boost to the morale of our guild!”
I nodded and smiled, saying, “Not just for me, it’s the same for you and Wei Liang. You guys need to do everything in your power to get a good rank. If 3-5 of [Zhan Long]’s elite players end up in the top 15, then [Zhan Long]’s name would be renowned throughout the world. After all, [Zhan Long] is only well known in Ba Huang City. There are probably very few people outside of Ba Huang City who have heard of us.”
Wan Er toyed with a piece of grass in her hand and wryly smiled, “That’s not true. [Zhan Long] is already pretty famous in Fan Shu City. At least, everyone knows that [Vanguard], the third biggest guild on the Chinese Server, has a thorn in its eye; that’s [Zhan Long], whose Guild Master is Xiao Yao Zi Zai, ranked 22nd on CBN. That pretty much sums it up.”
Dong Cheng Yue chuckled and said, “Yup, Xiao Yao’s strength has improved by leaps and bounds. It has exceeded everyone’s expectations and that’s something that I can vouch for!”
Yue Qing Qian said, “Brother Xiao Yao is the strongest, and he’s very smart as well. From all the videos of his battles that I saved, I can almost guarantee that in every battle he’s been in, from the battle in Green Qilin Valley against [Wrath of the Heroes] to the battles in the City of Ancients, Brother Xiao Yao’s skills and battle tactics have been constantly improving. Brother Xiao Yao has already transformed from a normal expert to an elite master. He’s not far from the apex of elite players, but he just lacks the opportunity to make the last jump……”
I was amazed and said, “What kind of a jump?”
