Chapter 159: Leaving SAO

Just as Lingyun and the others returned to the garden, many players had already begun preparing to head to the 100th floor. Judging by their appearance, they were impatient to leave this world that could take their lives at any moment.

"You actually succeeded!" Argo looked at Lingyun with a face full of surprise. "You even managed to take down the final boss!"

"That goes without saying, you don't even need to think about who we are!" Suguha said with a smile.

"When are you planning to leave this world?" Lingyun asked as he walked out of the kitchen, carrying a huge tray in his hands.

"When? Naturally, after enjoying this grand feast!" Argo looked at the tray in Lingyun's hands, her mouth almost watering.

"Tch, you little mouse, when did you become such a foodie?" Lisbeth, standing to the side, curled her lip at Argo.

"Don't you have even a shred of anticipation for the food Lingyun makes himself?" Argo rolled her eyes at Lisbeth. "Also, I am not a mouse! Call me Argo! You all have been spoiled by Lingyun!"

"Alright, you two stop bickering, it's time to eat!" Asuna said to the two of them.

Lingyun placed the tray on the table, smiled, and then walked back into the kitchen.

"Papa!" Just as Lingyun was preparing ingredients for the next dish, Yui appeared by his side.

Lingyun had already grown accustomed to his daughter's elusive behavior. Ever since the Underworld King Moqi was eliminated, Yui, with the help of nine World Consciousness Projections, had completely taken control of this world. In this world, she could appear anywhere at any time.

"What's wrong, Yui?" Lingyun placed a pot on the stove and began to cook the next dish.

"Just as Ruoxi said, there are indeed people preparing to use the power they gained in this world to run amok in the real world! They have already quietly gathered together and formed a small organization!"

"Hm? What kind of people?" Lingyun frowned slightly.

"According to the information previously stored in this world, the main members are players from the Red Player Guild, and the initiators are players from Laughing Coffin!" Yui reached out and tapped a virtual panel, which displayed various photographs.

"These guys again?" Lingyun frowned slightly. "It's a good thing we were prepared, otherwise who knows how much trouble these guys would cause in reality!"

"Papa, do you need me to keep an eye on them?" Yui asked.

"No need, we have already set up the Power Reflux Array; they will only become ordinary people upon returning to reality, they won't be able to stir up any big waves!" Lingyun shook his head. "If they really think they can do whatever they want once they reach the real world, then they are truly too naive. I think someone will be there to properly entertain them!"

"But, the power within Kirito-mama, Asuna-mama, Suguha-aunt, and Suguha-sister is not affected by this Power Reflux Array. I am worried that they will be troubled by this matter in the Main World!"

"As for this matter, leave it to me!" Lingyun said with a smile.

"Dinner is served!" Following Asuna's voice, everyone in the garden came to the dining table. Not only Argo and Lisbeth, but the members of the Moonlit Black Cats were also present.

"Today's meal is truly sumptuous!" Argo looked at the food on the table and sighed in admiration.

"After all, this is the last meal in SAO, I've taken out all the S-Rank Ingredients!" Lingyun said with a smile.

"Lingyun, are you leaving?" After the grand feast, Kirito pulled Lingyun into her room and asked.

In the room, there were also Asuna, Suguha, and Yuuki, all three of them looking straight at Lingyun.

"Yes, after all, we are not people of this world!" Lingyun nodded slightly.

"Then, can we meet in the real world?" Asuna asked.

"In reality?" Lingyun raised an eyebrow.

"Yes, we hope to be able to meet you in reality!" Kirito nodded.

"I hope Master can go and save my sister!" Yuuki said.

"Your sister?" Lingyun raised an eyebrow, then thought of Yuuki's sister in reality, who suffered from the same illness as Yuuki.

"That works too, let's go to your real world then!" Lingyun nodded slightly.

"However, Lingyun, there is still one very important thing. Our current strength doesn't seem to be affected by the Power Reflux Array. If we return to the real world with this power, we will be very troubled!" Kirito said.

"Rest assured, I have my own plans for this!" Lingyun opened his right hand, and in his palm were four Seal Bracelets. "These bracelets can temporarily seal your power. Originally, I intended to help you solve this immediately. But since we are going to your Main World, we will resolve it then!"

"What a beautiful bracelet!" The women happily took the bracelets, and each put one on their wrist.

After putting on the bracelets, Kirito and the others felt the vast power within them go silent in an instant. The feeling of power vanishing instantly made them feel somewhat unaccustomed. However, Kirito and the others were clearly not ordinary people, and they quickly adapted to their current situation.

"It looks like you've adapted, so get ready, we are heading to your Main World!" Lingyun said.

"Mm, let's go!" Kirito and the others nodded, then took out a Transfer Crystal, "Transfer, Ruby Palace!"

Lingyun and the others appeared in the Ruby Palace. Because quite some time had passed, the players in this world had already returned, leaving the Ruby Palace empty, with only Lingyun and his group present.

"You all go back first, I will follow shortly!" Lingyun said to Kirito and the others.

"But, how will you find us then?" Kirito asked.

Lingyun revealed a mysterious smile: "As for that, you can rest assured, I will naturally be able to find you!"

"Remember, no breaking your promise!" Asuna said to Lingyun earnestly.

"Understood!" Lingyun nodded with a smile.

Kirito, Asuna, and the others walked into the light gate one by one, disappearing into the depths of the radiance. Lingyun stood before the light gate, waiting for something.

"Master, are we not going to Kirito's world?" Luo Yexi asked.

"I had Ruoxi go handle some business, we are waiting here for her to return!" Lingyun said.

No sooner had Lingyun finished speaking than Ruoxi's figure appeared before him: "Brother, I'm back!"

"How was it, did you finish the task?" Lingyun asked.

"Of course, although that big sister has already fallen into a deep sleep, I still managed to get the things you needed, Brother!" Ruoxi giggled and opened her hands; in them were four Light Balls of different colors and a slip of paper.

"Well done!" Lingyun took these items from Ruoxi's hands and said with a smile. "With these things, whether it's finding Kirito and the others or solving their problems, it will be a very easy matter!"

"What are these things?" Alice asked with some curiosity.

"As for that, you will know when the time comes. Now, let's set off!" Lingyun was the first to walk into the light gate.
