Chapter 2881

Li Ruanyu pointed to the side and said, "That's the place. Let's go."

On the left was a stone house, looking very small, only about ten square meters or so.

Hold a meeting in such a tiny room?

Although Zhao Chi was a little puzzled, he still followed Li Ruanyu over quickly.

Zhao Chi observed his surroundings the whole way and found that this virtual space really did resemble the Chaos Space.

Everything around was white, without a single shadow.

The sky was also white, with no sun and no blue.

Yet the surroundings naturally had brightness, and the view was very clear.

The only difference from the Chaos Space was that here there was a real, solid white floor; in the Chaos Space there was no floor at all, like floating in a zero-gravity space.

After observing for a while and looking back, he found that the little stone house still hadn't been reached.

It didn't look far…

Perhaps with no reference points here, his sense of distance was being affected.

After walking another two minutes, he finally reached the stone house, but just as it had looked from afar, it was still very small.

So many guild-leader-level lords crammed in here for a meeting?

A bit cramped, isn't it?

Li Ruanyu pulled open the wooden door, but behind it was a grey cross-section, with no view of the scene inside at all.

Li Ruanyu said, "Passing through here gets you in. Want me to hold your hand?"

"No need…"

"Then let's go."

Li Ruanyu gave him a quick smile, and her body passed through the grey cross-section and vanished.

Honestly, this virtual space is a bit creepy.

Zhao Chi looked back, then ducked into the grey cross-section as well.

The scene before his eyes instantly shifted.

When he came back to himself, he found himself appearing in a fairly spacious wooden room.

The room was very warm, with the scent of fresh wood.

The area was also very large, at least thirty meters on each side, a total of nine hundred square meters.

That's far, far bigger than it looked from outside.

And outside it looked like a stone house, but inside it's a wooden one…

Virtual space really is free.

Right in the middle of the room stood a very simple round wooden table, very large.

The tabletop was unnaturally smooth, like a mirror.

Twelve seats were arranged around it.

These twelve seats had no hierarchy, or rather every one was a host seat, spaced at least a little over a meter apart from each other.

Behind each host seat were two rows of chairs, six in total.

These chairs were set aside for the attendants.

Zhao Chi and Li Ruanyu had arrived more than ten minutes early, but there were already quite a few people inside, chatting in small groups about this and that, very lively.

But strangely, Zhao Chi couldn't make out what they were saying at all; he could only hear that they were talking, and not quietly either.

He just couldn't make out the specific words — very strange.

But not for everyone.

Zhao Chi could make out some people's conversations, but the content was completely unimportant — all routine pleasantries and flattery.

Besides these, there were also quite a few who sat silently, watching the surroundings coldly, not uttering a word.

Zhao Chi didn't recognize a single person in the room.

Li Ruanyu knew some of them; after exchanging greetings she headed toward Yao Feng's seat.

Yao Feng had already arrived.

She was standing beside her seat, chatting with two lords about something.

When she saw Li Ruanyu and Zhao Chi she smiled, gave a slight nod, then continued chatting.

Behind Yao Feng a woman was already seated, smiling and staring fixedly at Zhao Chi.

Naturally it was Shangguan Ting.

She sat in the front row of the back seats on the left, and gestured to Zhao Chi to sit beside her.

But Li Ruanyu had walked in front, and she deliberately left the middle seat for Zhao Chi, sitting herself on the right.

With that, Zhao Chi was sandwiched between Li Ruanyu and Shangguan Ting.

Although he'd also been sandwiched between the two of them in bed before, being sandwiched like this outside was a first.

The moment Zhao Chi sat down in his seat, Shangguan Ting leaned over and kissed him.

Zhao Chi stared at her in astonishment — Shangguan Ting actually dared to do that?

But Shangguan Ting stopped right in front of Zhao Chi, then said softly, "Don't recognize anyone, do you? Let me tell you who all these people are."

So she wasn't coming in for a kiss — she was going to introduce those people to him.

That really was a misunderstanding.

After all, Shangguan Ting was also a vice captain.

Even if she had already stuck herself to him, in a formal occasion like this she would still maintain the proper decorum and bearing, and wouldn't go too far.
