Entering the Dream of Lin'an City

After Lin Qishuang finished packing everything, Lin Xiao glanced at the map again.

After the previous major battle, the number of red dots on the map has decreased.

Even so, the entire map is still densely covered with red dots.

If things continue like this, Lin Qishuang will likely be too busy coping to continue her cultivation.

Therefore, Lin Qishuang had no choice but to leave.

After thinking for a while, Lin Xiao repeated his thoughts to Lin Qishuang.

Upon hearing this, Lin Qishuang's expression immediately darkened. She knew that if what her senior said was true, then it would indeed be inappropriate for her to stay here any longer.

only……

After a moment's thought, Lin Qishuang looked up at the sky and respectfully said, "Senior is right, but this junior doesn't know where to go."

"Where to go? That is the question!"

Lin Xiao opened the world map, then stroked his chin as he pondered the question.

Then he saw the map shrouded in a thick fog.

On the map, apart from the area near Cangyun Ridge, the rest of the map is shrouded in thick fog.

At the foot of Cangyun Ridge lies a city called Lin'an.

What puzzled Lin Xiao was that the city of Lin'an was shrouded in a black halo.

[Ding: Lin'an City is the main city; all fighting is prohibited!]

Lin Xiao, who was originally worried about Lin Qishuang's problem, couldn't help but widen his eyes when he saw this prompt.

This is truly a case of finding a pillow when you're sleepy.

Right now, what both Lin Qishuang and I need most is time!

"Heh, there's always a way out!"

Seeing the notification pop up on the screen, Lin Xiao's worries vanished instantly.

His fingers flew across the keyboard as he typed, his voice steady as he said, "Little girl, don't worry, I've already found you a place!"

In the small courtyard, a glimmer of hope flashed in Lin Qishuang's eyes. She quickly bowed and asked, "Please give me your guidance, senior. I am willing to follow your arrangements."

"There is a city called Lin'an at the foot of Cangyun Ridge. You can go there!" Lin Xiao's voice echoed through the courtyard, his tone filled with unquestionable certainty.

"This city forbids all fighting; no one can make a move once inside. It's perfect for you to stay temporarily!"

He paused, then added, "Now that things are turbulent in Cangyun Ridge, you should go to Lin'an City to avoid trouble."

"So, while we rest and recover our strength, we can also familiarize ourselves with our surroundings. We'll make further plans once things calm down."

Lin Qishuang felt relieved and bowed again, speaking respectfully: "This junior obeys. Thank you for your guidance, senior. This junior will pack my things and head to Lin'an City now."

"Okay, go ahead, be careful on the road," Lin Xiao typed, his eyes fixed on Lin Qishuang on the screen.

"Although fighting is forbidden in Lin'an City, there might still be wandering cultivators along this stretch of road down the mountain. Try to avoid trouble. If you really encounter someone who doesn't know what's good for them, just kill them!"

"I will keep your teachings in mind," Lin Qishuang replied.

He turned back to the small cabin where he was temporarily resting and quickly packed his belongings.

Actually, there's not much to pack up; it's mainly the treasures we seized today and the repaired Qingping Sword.

She carefully put everything into her storage bag and gripped the Qingping Sword tightly.

One last look at this small courtyard where I had briefly stayed and witnessed a battle for revenge.

The next moment, Lin Qishuang flashed and sped down Cangyun Ridge.

Lin Xiao, watching from outside the screen, kept his eyes glued to Lin Qishuang's figure the entire time.

Only after watching her carefully avoid a few scattered red dots and successfully arrive at the gate of Lin'an City did he finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Lin Xiao closed the game interface and stretched out a big yawn.

After a whole morning of tinkering, spending money on in-game purchases, and commanding battles, he was exhausted.

After his body was transformed by the Marrow Cleansing Pill, and having embarked on his cultivation journey, he was somewhat exhausted.

He decided to lie down on the bed and get some rest, then check on Lin Qishuang's cultivation progress that evening.

Lin Xiao slept exceptionally soundly that night.

Firstly, Lin Qishuang had safely arrived in Lin'an City and was no longer in danger.

Secondly, he knew that as long as Lin Qishuang could successfully recover her cultivation, he could bring her more benefits in the future.

Curing stomach cancer and making money are just around the corner.

Before we knew it, night fell, and the bright moonlight cast a gentle glow.

Lin Xiao woke up from her sleep, rubbed her sleepy eyes, and subconsciously picked up her phone and opened the game interface.

On the screen, Lin Qishuang was already meditating cross-legged in a room at an inn.

A faint aura of spiritual energy surrounded him, and his aura was much more stable than before.

Clearly, the collected Qi Gathering Pills played a significant role.

Just then, another notification popped up on the phone screen, instantly energizing Lin Xiao.

[Ding: Detected that the female protagonist Lin Qishuang has entered Lin'an City, opening a new map. The host can directly enter Lin'an City.]

The duration of this dream entry is still six hours. Would the host prefer to enter the Cangxuan Realm, Lin'an City?

"We can actually enter Lin'an City directly?"

Lin Xiao's eyes lit up, and a look of surprise appeared on her face.

I was wondering what would happen if I entered the dream again and ended up in Cangyun Ridge.

I never imagined that I could now enter Lin'an City directly!

"I was afraid of the danger before and didn't dare to enter the dream, but now fighting is prohibited in Lin'an City and it's very safe. It would be a shame not to go in and take a look!"

Moreover, I could meet Lin Qishuang, give her some advice in person, and maybe even see if I could get some benefits out of her. Why not?

Without the slightest hesitation, Lin Xiao immediately clicked the "Confirm Dream Entry" button.

Instantly, a strong sense of dizziness struck him, and everything went black before his eyes.

A moment later, the dizziness subsided, and Lin Xiao slowly opened his eyes.

What comes into view is an old-fashioned street, brightly lit on both sides, lined with shops, and bustling with people.

The streets were bustling with people, mostly cultivators dressed in various clothes, as well as some ordinary mortals, creating a peaceful and lively scene.

The air was filled with a faint spiritual energy and the aroma of food, a stark contrast to the cold and desolate atmosphere of Cangyun Ridge.

Lin Xiao looked down at her body, which was still the same as in reality.

There was only a faint spiritual energy lingering within him, perfectly blending with the atmosphere of this world; clearly, this was his dream-entering body.

"This is Lin'an City? It's definitely different from Cangyun Ridge; it's quite lively." Lin Xiao couldn't help but exclaim, looking around at the shops on both sides of the street with curiosity in his eyes.

"This crappy game is pretty realistic, even the street food looks authentic."

He headed toward the inn where Lin Qishuang was staying, following the location shown on the game map.

Along the way, he saw many cultivators traveling in twos and threes, chatting and laughing.

There were also some cultivators selecting treasures and elixirs in the shops, all with peaceful expressions and no hostility whatsoever.

At least, that's how it appears on the surface.

Clearly, the restrictions imposed on Lin'an City were effective.
