282 The New World’s Number One Beauty
The next morning.
The rising sun shone on the land of Shenxia.
The chirping of the birds woke Ling Yi up from his sleep.
When he opened his eyes, he was greeted by the clear blue sky.
“Ah…”
Ling Yi propped himself up from the wooden chair and moved his neck slightly. And the sound of giggles beside him tickled his ears.
He turned over and got down from the chair to stretch his body. He felt that he was in very good condition.
“You’re up?”
Lin Shurou, who was watering the flowers, asked with a smile.
“Yes.”
Ling Yi responded softly. He saw that there was a new carpet on the grass beside the wooden chair and asked curiously, “What is this?”
“Oh, I slept here last night. I just woke up.”
She put down the water bottle and walked to Ling Yi’s side. She pulled him to the carpet and said, “I can see that you still have some tension hidden in your body. Let me help you.”
“Alright,” he said.
Ling Yi took off his shirt and lay down, allowing Lin Shurou to massage his head, neck, and back.
These three parts were the main accumulation of fatigue in the upper body. Massage could effectively dredge the channels and collaterals, improve blood circulation, and relieve fatigue.
A few minutes later…
Ling Yi let out a long breath. His essence, Qi, and spirit were all at their peak.
He stood up and looked down at the girl who was still kneeling by his legs and looking up at him with a happy smile. He couldn’t help but reach out and touch her cheek.
The latter closed her eyes and affectionately and lovingly rubbed her head against his palm, her beautiful snow-white face blushing.
“You’re getting more and more beautiful.”
She had been bathing in the spring of Holy Angels for a long time, and now she was a completely different person from twenty days ago.
That shy woman who could be considered an ordinary beauty had now turned into a woman who was even more beautiful than Lin Xian.
Her skin was as white as snow and crystal, even emitting a faint glow. If you looked at every part of her body carefully, it was so exquisite and perfect.
Hearing this, Lin Shurou opened her beautiful eyes and smiled lovingly. She looked at him with eyes that were filled with love.
“Do you still remember what I told you?”
“I’m going to charm you to death so that you’ll never be able to leave me.” Lin Shurou smiled sweetly.
As she spoke, she stood up and tiptoed on her fair feet. She cupped Ling Yi’s face with her fair hands and placed her fragrant lips on his.
…
After a while, both of their needs were solved.
After she put on her clothes, Lin Shurou suddenly remembered something and turned to him, “By the way, after you revealed your identity, Firefly Town in Qianjiang City has become a world-famous town. Not only are they known as ‘the town of legends’ and ‘the town of heroes’, but they’re also on the verge of becoming a Holy Land for players worldwide.”
“We received the news in our town group yesterday that the city plans to renovate our town and make it a town worthy of your name.”
At this point, Lin Shurou seemed to have become his fan. She threw herself into his arms and whispered, “You are so powerful! Ling Yi, my God~”
Ling Yi didn’t reply..
After acting as his ‘fan’, Lin Shurou chuckled and took a step back to regain her balance. She continued, “Everyone knows that you live here, so they asked for my opinion. I think it’s fine. What do you think?”
“Of course, no problem.”
“Good. The other thing is also related to your exposed identity. Yesterday, after you fell asleep, Nangong Li came over. She talked to us about the official bestowment ceremony for you. Since you haven’t revealed your identity in the past, it was okay to postpone it. But now that you have made yourself public… they won’t feel good if they don’t hold the ceremony for you.”
“Huh? That’s…”
Ling Yi felt that this was a little troublesome.
“The venue has been set up. As long as you’re willing, you can go at any time before 12 o’clock.”
“Alright, alright.”
Ling Yi looked at the time and saw that there were still more than ten minutes before 10. Ling Yi thought that 10 would be just right.
Hence, he contacted Nangong Li in advance.
[Vermilion Bird: Okay. Ten am is a very good time. However, you should know who awarded you the medal, so don’t think too much about it.]
[01: Ah, I know]
…
About an hour later…
Ling Yi let out a long sigh of relief when he got home and lay on the sofa.
Beside him, Lin Shurou, who was wearing a long red dress and red high heels, naturally started massaging his shoulders.
“Wow! Shurou, you’re famous!”
In the hall, Yunji and the others, who were still replaying the ceremony, looked at Lin Shurou up and down as if they had a new understanding of her beauty.
In order not to let the world misunderstand that 01 was single, she decided to follow Ling Yi.
For formal occasions, she changed into a relatively conservative long dress, which reached her ankles.
Even though only her face and arms were exposed, she was still the focus of countless viewers as she stood beside Ling Yi most of the time. This grand ceremony was naturally broadcasted live to the entire country.
“The entire forum says you’re the world’s most beautiful woman.”
Xia Wanqing flipped through the forum and was slightly surprised.
She turned her head and sized up Lin Shurou. She covered her mouth and laughed. “But I think you look better at home than outside.”
“Mm… It’s mainly because she’s wearing too much outside.” Yunji agreed with Xia Wanqing’s words.
She also felt that Lin Shurou was more beautiful at home.
Lin Shurou glanced at the two of them and then turned her gaze to Xiao Ya. She said in a calm but stern tone, “You have to know what you’re wearing. You have to be conservative in front of others. You can’t show anything below the neck except your arms.”
Yunji and Xia Wanqing were both protected by God’s Path, so she was not worried.
Therefore, she only told Xiao Ya this time.
“Alright,” Xiaoya nodded.
The other party was actually warning her main body. After all, everyone knew that she had no intention of going out as a clone.
Ling Yi opened the forum as well, curious about what the outside world thought of her.
The third hot search on the forum was about her…
[The Woman Behind 01 Has Appeared. She’s Even More Beautiful Than Lin Xian!] (HOT)
He clicked on it, skimmed through the content, and slid down to the players’ comments.
[A Goddess!]
[I didn’t expect 01 to hide such a beautiful woman. He must be Living a good life every day.]
[She took great care of herself. She’s fair and healthy. Even a woman like me can’t take my eyes off you.]
[I’m sorry to tell everyone that a friend of mine told me that this woman is a lustful one. She might be the one who takes the initiative in private…]
[Impossible! Goddesses must be as pure as ice and as pure as jade. You’re deluding the public with lies!]
[I think that she’s still a little young. If she’s a little more mature, she can really bring disaster to the world with her beauty alone.]
[…]
Ling Yi shrugged his shoulders, indicating that the massage was done.
Lin Shurou released her hands and bent down to take off her shoes. She said softly, “I’m used to wearing light clothes at home, so I feel a little uncomfortable wearing this.”
She took off her high heels, then her red dress and other clothes. She put on an apron around her neck and walked into the kitchen barefooted.
Among the few of them, only Xiao Ya’s cooking Skills could be compared to hers.
Lin Shurou accompanied him the entire morning. After she left, he finally turned his attention back to his backpack.
A lot of things happened yesterday, and the rewards were a little too much. Now he had to sort out his thoughts.
‘First, I’ll use the [System’s Prompt]’s three chances. I’ll use them on slow light, the heart of attributes, and courage badges.’
‘Next are the five items from the announcement reward.’
‘Finally, last night’s identity and title.’
Although he said that, he planned to look at his identity and title first before using the system prompt. He was not in a hurry to get the other five items.
Xia Wanqing, who was at the side, shrank into his arms at this time, bringing him a fragrance.
Looking at her, Ling Yi suddenly remembered that he hadn’t given her the star transformation stone and the stone of Reformation yet. Thus, he gave both of them to her.
“Aren’t you about to challenge the 1.5x illusion? Hurry up and change. It’ll be more stable after you change.”
The cultivation challenge lasted for a week, and it was almost time.
“Alright!”
Xia Wanqing nodded and immediately started to operate.
