Returning To The Cultivation World Through A Game

Chapter 237 - Ask Old Edward

"Not as simple as how, brother Qin?" Xue Ying asked once again.

Qin Tian looked at him, wondering if he was just pretending not to understand.

He then shook his head before answering. "Well, I'm not sure how to explain it. Either way, you'll find out for yourself sooner or later."

After that, he stopped talking about it.

The trip turned out to take a long time, Qin Tian finally used that time to return to the real world. There were still some things he needed to take care of there.

He went to a small room on the ship and pretended to cultivate.

Of course, before he went out of the sixteen heavens, he told Xue Ying to go to the ship of the Giant Bamboo Sect first.

For safety's sake, he needed to do that. The man may be very young, but obviously his mind is very sharp, he even knows how to pretend.

When players leave the sixteen heavens, it is a chance to kill them, every player knows that.

If Xue Ying was not far from him and he suddenly thought of killing him, it would be a disaster for him.

Even though the system will give a warning before it happens, but does one have time to hold on before the killer launches his action?

Therefore, hiding the body in a safe place was a must before exiting the game.

In his current state, he had no safe place, so the only solution was to send Xue Ying away.

...

He wakes up in a cruise ship room.

Beside him, Clara lay with the virtual reality device covering her head.

She obviously knew he was out of the game, so she was out too.

Immediately she opened her eyes and looked at him.

"Qin, how is the situation in the Red Tears Sea?" She then asked.

As a CIA agent who enjoys playing virtual games, she definitely has an adventurous spirit. After knowing that the sixteen heavens were the real world, her curiosity about that world naturally increased drastically, especially for the strange places in that world.

"There are a lot of people coming, conflict is something that is inevitable. Well, now the place is full of excitement, although it's a bit bloody, hehe."

"Bloody huh..." She seemed to fall into contemplation after hearing the word bloody.

Qin Tian who couldn't bear to see her expression quickly wiped her face.

But before he could speak, Clara suddenly smiled as she pulled his hand away. "Don't underestimate me. The things that have happened at Olympus may have affected me a lot, but that's only because I'm part of the victims that the conflict there has produced."

"Sooner or later, I will form a new me! That will be my true self, of course."

Her smile and words dispelled Qin Tian's worries.

He smiled and said, "I'm sure I'll really like your new you."

"Hahaha, that's for sure."

"So why did you come out?"

"To take care of some things."

"That devil?"

"Yes," Qin Tian nodded. "But I suggest you don't see it, it's dangerous."

"Huh, you think I don't know, you just don't want me to know too much," she replied with a slight frown.

Qin Tian could only helplessly smile.

"Don't worry, I am a wife who is very tolerant of her husband," she added.

After she said that, she moved her face to his.

Pluff...

Her soft lips then kissed his cheek.

"Do your job well, baby." She said before putting the virtual reality equipment back on her head.

Soon after that she fell back asleep.

Qin Tian couldn't help but touch the cheek that Clara had kissed.

It might just be a simple kiss, but it was done with love. The sensation he received from it truly made him feel like he was floating above the dome of heaven.

The pleasures that result from lust seem very insignificant compared to that.

After feeling love, he couldn't help but feel sorry for those who were still single.

He shook his head before standing up. He then walked to the balcony of the room.

It was the presidential suite, even the balcony was spacious enough to be used as a playground.

The sunlight shone on his face as soon as he arrived on the balcony.

It was now around 3pm, the sun in the Atlantic ocean was warm enough at that hour that the people on the boats started going out onto the decks to sunbathe.

Qin Tian looked around for a while before waving his hand.

After that, Edward's old figure appeared in front of him.

The old man looked confused for a moment before realizing what had happened to him.

Seeing Qin Tian standing in front of him, he quickly saluted.

"Your Majesty Immortal..."

But before he spoke any more, Qin Tian stopped him.

"Enough with your bullshit, and stop calling me Immortal. I called you here because I have some questions."

Being called by the word Immortal might seem very impressive, but the weight of that word was also too heavy.

In his past life, he also didn't dare to accept that call even in front of mortals.

"Ehmmm," the old man cleared his throat with an embarrassed smile. "Then I'll call you young master, how about it?"

"That's fine! But don't act like you're my subordinate, I didn't kill you just because Clara didn't ask me to do it."

Qin Tian looked at him with piercing eyes as he said that, causing the old man to shiver in fear.

"I dare not," he replied. He almost kowtowed in front of him because of his gaze.

"Alright, let's get started. First, the thing I want to know is: did you know the Abyss Demon before it appeared?"

The moment the creature appeared, Old Edward's reaction looked like he already knew about it, so Qin Tian was quite suspicious of him.

He just didn't have time to ask because last night his thoughts were focused on helping Clara.

"So it's called the Demon Abyss?" Old Edward said in a low voice.

But after that he looked left and right. He seemed hesitant to answer the question.

His attitude caused Qin Tian to knit his brows.

"Quickly answer…" He finally scolded the old man once again.

The latter was frightened once again due to his anger.

Seeing the expression on his face that looked like he could easily kill people, Old Edward quickly replied.

"I did know the creature before the encounter, but I also knew very little."

"Oh?"

"The creature first appeared in America, its appearance was first discovered by several agents, I then went to meet him."

"I managed to meet him, he then asked me some questions that confused me, so I told him to go to Olympus. It happened the day before the night of the meeting."

"I really don't know much more than that."
