Ye Qingxian rode her hunting dogs through the wilderness. Several hours had passed since she left Youjing Longyuan. During that time, she encountered a group of players, but they didn't dare to provoke her after seeing the hunting dogs she was with.

In this completely realistic setting, the world is the real world to Ye Qingxian. After sitting on the back of the hunting dog for several hours, her buttocks started to hurt. Coupled with being hungry and thirsty, she decided to rest by a stream.

Apart from one hunting dog that stayed behind, the other hunting dogs went hunting on their own. Ye Qingxian couldn't feed them, so she had to let them fend for themselves.

She sat down in front of a huge tree, then took out the food she had prepared in advance from her backpack and began to eat. Compared to the cheap and hard bread she had eaten before, she was now eating shrimp and glutinous rice balls that she had exchanged for with faction contribution points from the catgirl.

Ye Qingxian was completely unaware that a "voyeur" was hiding by a tree not far away; that voyeur was none other than the silver dragon girl, Estya.

At this moment, Esther concealed her presence and hid behind a tree, secretly observing Ye Qingxian who was eating. Because she was worried about Ye Qingxian going out alone, she quietly followed her.

However, with Fenrir's hounds protecting him, Ye Qingxian rarely encountered dangerous situations. But Estya still didn't leave. Ever since she became interested in Ye Qingxian, she had enjoyed observing his every move.

Now, let's take this opportunity to see what Ye Qingxian does when she's alone.

Ye Qingxian had long since switched her profession to that of a bard, and her attire certainly fit the image of a bard. After the meal, while the hunting dogs were still waiting to return, Ye Qingxian took out her zither and began to play.

She was playing and singing an ancient song from Earth called "Farewell".

Outside the long pavilion, along the ancient road, the fragrant grass stretches to the horizon.

The girl plucked the strings with her fingers and hummed softly along with the melody.

She had practiced this song countless times, intending it as her farewell song to the world, but her life did not end; instead, it became more hopeful than before.

The silver dragon girl behind the tree heard Ye Qingxian sing for the first time. She carefully savored the lyrics and melody, but she couldn't fully understand the meaning of the song since it was her first time listening to it. She only felt a little sad, as if there was a sense of parting.

Will she break up with Ye Qingxian?

In fact, ever since Ye Qingxian left Youjing Longyuan, Esther had been missing her.

As for a permanent separation from Ye Qingxian, Esther would never allow that to happen.

Nearly half an hour later, the hunting dogs returned with full bellies. Ye Qingxian packed her things and prepared to continue her journey.

Her destination was the nearest human town, but Yai Shan City was still under high alert due to the attack, and Ye Qingxian wouldn't go to such a place to cause trouble. This time, she chose to go to a city near the sea called Linhai City.

Having a hunting dog as a mount made the journey countless times faster than walking. While sitting on the dog's back, Ye Qingxian didn't stop, keeping an eye on her friends list, waiting for her mother to come online.

She can no longer even access player forums, which means she has completely severed ties with players and become an NPC.

While she was eating and resting, her mother's status changed to "online". Ye Qingxian was both surprised and delighted. She hurriedly edited a private message and sent it to her mother, but what worried her was that her mother did not reply to her message immediately.

-------------------------------------

In the tavern outside the Moonsea Guild's headquarters.

Chu Jinlan felt extremely embarrassed when she saw the "mother" at the beginning, because the other person was actually just her younger sister who was 7 years younger than her.

But since she had decided to keep the truth from her sister for the time being, Chu Jinlan could only continue to play the role of a mother.

However, compared to before, the feeling she has when writing the word "daughter" is completely different now.

Have you contacted your daughter? Could you tell her that she no longer needs to join a guild?

Yun Yue sat opposite Chu Jinlan, and next to her sat Mo Yuhan. The two of them had been explaining the current situation to Chu Jinlan.

The federal government compensated Moonsea Guild for all its losses with 1.5 times the amount. After the accounts were reconciled, it was found that the extra compensation was enough to cover Moonsea Guild's annual revenue. This made all the members of Moonsea Guild very happy. At the same time, taking this opportunity, the annoying vice president also voluntarily left the guild. The world where no one was injured was completed.

Chu Jinlan found Yun Yue's friendly attitude very unbelievable, and only after the other party explained the situation did she finally understand what was going on.

“I told her, uh, I feel you don’t need to use the formal ‘you’ when you’re talking to me.”

What was originally a normal situation has become quite awkward for Chu Jinlan now, because she is not a real elder. In the days to come, she must accept that she is a young person and should gradually adjust her mindset.

"What exactly is the relationship between Ye Qingxian and the silver dragon Estya?" Yun Yue asked, a question she had been pondering day and night for some time.

The incident where Silver Dragon Estia and Black Dragon Fufuna destroyed the Moonsea Guild's headquarters caused a huge uproar and remains a hot topic. Some players have started a poll to find out what people think is the relationship between Ye Qingxian and Estia.

Ye Qingxian is dead in reality. Although some people recognized her, they could only express their condolences. The maid girl in the game is actually an NPC created based on Ye Qingxian's personal information.

Even the relationship between two NPCs sparked heated discussions among players.

According to the collected data, more than 500 million people voted, and the poll post is still on the homepage of the player forum.

What do you think is the relationship between the maid and the silver dragon?

The top three voting options accounted for almost 90% of the votes.

"①Is that even a question? It's definitely yuri (49%)."

"②Perhaps it's just that Silver Dragon is protective of his own? That maid might be her personal maid (21%)."

"③Estella, my wife, sob sob sob... (20%)"

It can be seen that almost half of the voters believe that Esther and Ye Qingxian have a special relationship.

The third option is a defense-breaking option, because many players regard Estia as their dream lover and are thinking about conquering the Netherworld Dragon Abyss dungeon as soon as possible to bring Estia home as their wife.

Unexpectedly, before they could successfully complete the dungeon, their Silver Dragon Princess was suspected of being seduced by another NPC, who had only recently appeared.

However, no one has concrete evidence yet; everyone is just speculating and making jokes.

Section 118, Chapter 111: The Wilderness and Torrential Rain

When Esther saw Ye Qingxian's expression change from calm to joy, she guessed what had happened; Ye Qingxian's mother must have come online.

Although Chu Jinlan is Ye Qingxian's mother, Esther felt very uncomfortable when Chu Jinlan hugged Ye Qingxian or stroked Ye Qingxian's head.

Miss Silver Dragon's possessiveness is beginning to emerge; what she considers precious must belong only to her.

She wasn't sure what Ye Qingxian and Chu Jinlan were talking about. Maybe they had arranged to meet at a certain time and place? She had to find out later.

Recently, something has been bothering Esther: the mission she accepted from the world's AI is about to fail.

"The bet: If you don't get conquered within a year, you'll obtain clues related to the destruction of the Dragon Kingdom."

At this moment, a large red character appeared in the mission description: "Danger".

Estia was certain that the players hadn't even defeated her first boss, let alone her, the Lord of the Netherworld. But Estia wasn't stupid; she now realized which strategy the system was referring to.

So, is being "conquered" also a form of love strategy? Less than a month has passed since the one-year agreement was set, but if things continue like this, the mission will inevitably fail, because Esther knows very well that she has fallen in love with Ye Qingxian.

She remembered what Yunia had said when she said goodbye, telling her to look for answers in Ye Qingxian's astrosis. Before, she could say that she couldn't find any clues in her research, but now it was different. Estia believed that the turning point might lie in the profession of astral hunter.

It seems necessary to thoroughly investigate information about Star Crystals. As the saying goes, there is no end to learning. Estia knows that there is still much she doesn't know. Fortunately, she now has everyone's help. There are many knowledgeable members in the Netherworld Dragon Abyss, some of whom have read more books than Estia and can be of great help.

Yunia had warned her to be wary of the world's AI, and she had already begun to take precautions, so it didn't matter if the mission failed.

She couldn't give up her current relationship with Ye Qingxian for some unknown intelligence that might not even be useful a year from now; she could still tell what was more important.

Time passed by unnoticed, and the setting sun hung in the sky. Ye Qingxian found a sheltered spot at the foot of a cliff to set up camp. It seemed that they wouldn't be able to reach Linhai City today.

Estya felt that if it were her, she could reach Linhai City quickly by flapping her wings a few times in the sky. Even if she didn't travel by road, finding a way to access the teleportation network in the ley lines would be a very quick method.

However, it must be said that Estia herself has followed Ye Qingxian for so long, which can perhaps be considered as experiencing life.

She rubbed her chubby tail with her hands, hoping that the exercise would make it a little thinner.

Estia was troubled by her tail. For some reason, a lot of her fat was concentrated in her tail. Although the rest of her body was not fat, her tail was much larger than other dragons'.

Since meeting Fufuna, her fellow dragon, although she knew that the other was a smaller hatchling, the difference in the size of their tails was like the difference between a tree trunk and a branch.

The silver dragon girl was also hungry. She jumped to the nearest tree and picked fruit to eat, not caring whether the fruit was poisonous or not, since she, as a dragon, had very high poison resistance.

Fenrir's hounds were very loyal and especially fond of Ye Qingxian. They sat around Ye Qingxian's tent and warmed themselves by the fire with her.

In the late autumn season when winter is approaching, one could easily freeze to death if one is not careful while spending the night in the wild. This is because the entire Kingdom of Fania is located near the Arctic Circle. Although there are many other kingdoms established by various races 200 kilometers further north, that region is cold all year round and covered in snow all year round.

During the imperial era a thousand years ago, that region was the northern border of the empire, and the climate was far harsher than it is now, but the tenacious various races still managed to establish settlements there.

Therefore, the Kingdom of Fania, which is close to the northern border, experiences colder temperatures in late autumn than other regions.

Ye Qingxian threw the branches she had gathered into the campfire, making it burn even brighter. As darkness fell, she still trembled slightly as she sat by the fire.

She chose the wrong place. Although it was under a cliff, it only provided shelter from the wind on one side, while the wind was blowing from the other side. She would have been better off finding a cave or something similar to sleep in.

To ward off the cold, Ye Qingxian crawled into the tent early and wrapped herself in a thick quilt until she finally warmed up.

Closing the tent from the inside and shrinking into the small space, Ye Qingxian felt a strong sense of happiness and security.

Outside the tent, Miss Silver Dragon was considering whether she should crawl into the tent to sleep together. As lovers, this behavior should be normal, but in order to avoid revealing her presence, Esther chose to spend the night outside.

At night, the temperature drops to a very low level, but Miss Silver Dragon just loves the cold. She even looks forward to winter coming soon so she can lie comfortably in the snow and roll around, turning her body into a snowball.

As the lord of the Netherworld, Estia has hobbies that are unusual for her status, such as cuddling with a doll to sleep at night, or enjoying playing in the snow and water...

Lying on a thick tree branch, Esther idly browsed the player forum. She already knew about the poll that the players were conducting and cast her vote for the first option without hesitation.

After finishing her daily online battles with other players, Esther closed her eyes, thinking about the human girl sleeping in the tent, and wondered what a human body pillow would feel like.

As the nightingale sang in her ears, the silver dragon girl slowly drifted off to sleep. If nothing unexpected happened, the next day would arrive as usual.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned. In the middle of the night, Estia was awakened by a strong wind and torrential rain. Before she knew it, a torrential downpour began, accompanied by a violent tornado. Some trees that weren't too thick were snapped in half and sent flying high into the sky.

Such unusual climate changes, could it be that some old, immortal great magician is researching magic again?

Precipitation and wind are related to water and wind elements in the air, respectively. At this moment, Estia can sense the huge amount of wind and water elements contained in the atmosphere, indicating that the current storm must be caused by human activity.

The reason why suspicion was directed at the magician was that during the thousand years that Estia lived in the Abyss of the Netherworld, she had witnessed many more severe climate disasters, all caused by an imbalance of atmospheric elements.

Ye Qingxian and her tent were nowhere to be seen.

Section 119 Group: 10②00③7⑨9② 112 Using stickers for warmth

Estia used her magic to create a large bubble barrier, then wrapped herself in the bubble to prevent the rain from getting on her.

Even as a powerful magical beast, she couldn't find Ye Qingxian's location under these circumstances.

The torrential rain severely reduced visibility and obscured Ye Qingxian's presence as a living being, rendering the magical beast's prized ability to track presence completely ineffective.

If only I had placed the magic mark on Ye Qingxian beforehand, now I can only search for her by chance.

Even if Ye Qingxian couldn't see the road in the torrential rain and accidentally fell off a cliff to her death, it wouldn't matter, since Ye Qingxian has the ability to revive.

However, the other party was her beloved, and she could not possibly turn a blind eye when she knew he was in danger. The torrential rain in the wild was quite terrifying. If a mudslide or landslide occurred, she could harvest a bunch of Ye Qingxians growing from the ground the following year.

Hmm, that seems better?

Estia summoned her hidden dragon wings from her back and then soared into the sky against the torrential rain. The amount of feng shui elements in the atmosphere was so terrifying that it kept impacting her bubble barrier.
