Chapter 48: Chen Jing's Invitation

Lingyun stood by the bus stop, waiting for the arrival of Huang Luo and the others while communicating with Ruoxi.

"Ruoxi, have you finished the task I gave you?" Lingyun asked.

"Don't worry, it was just a small information shielding, which is a piece of cake for me," Ruoxi's cute voice rang out in his heart.

"That's not right. This world has an avatar of the Heavenly Dao Light Wheel. Given its rigid and ruthless state, as well as the grievances between it and me, how could it easily allow Busujima Saeko and Alice, who do not belong to this world, to appear here, and even let you perform information shielding? Are you hiding something from me, or did you pay some kind of price?" Lingyun asked with some suspicion.

"No, no, Brother, you can rest assured. I didn't pay any price. As for why the matter was resolved so easily, you will know later. Um, well, I'm going to analyze the Law Information that the world gave me first, bye-bye." Ruoxi said in a bit of a rush, then cut off the communication between them.

Lingyun shook his head with a smile: "Really, this little girl. Oh well, if she won't say, then so be it; I'll know eventually."

In the Cloud Realm, Ruoxi patted her chest and let out a sigh of relief: "Good thing Brother didn't keep asking, otherwise I would have slipped up. I wonder how that little girl Youruo is doing with integrating the power of this world. Forget it, this isn't something I need to worry about, better leave it to Sister to handle."

Lingyun himself does not yet know that the Heavenly Dao avatar of this world has already been destroyed by someone, and a brand-new World Consciousness has been born. This also means that from now on, this world is no longer managed by the Heavenly Dao of the Primordial World; after all, a single world will absolutely not have two World Consciousnesses.

"Hey, Fourth, I knew you would be waiting for us here." Huang Luo and the other two got off the bus and smiled at Lingyun. "But, speaking of which, it's been so long, and we haven't seen the place you rented yet. You better not let us brothers down."

Lingyun looked at his buddies in front of him and smiled: "Alright, today I'll let you go to my place and see."

When Lingyun pushed open his door, he smelled the fragrance of a meal wafting from the kitchen.

Huang Luo's nose twitched, and a flash of brilliance couldn't help but cross his eyes: "Damn, Fourth, who cooked this meal? It smells so good!"

Han Yu and Liu Feng, who were behind Huang Luo, also nodded repeatedly; it was clear that this fragrance had already whetted their appetites.

"Brother, you're back?" Alice, who was watching TV on the sofa, jumped down and hopped over to Lingyun.

"Brother?" Huang Luo and the other two all looked at Lingyun with strange expressions.

"Fourth, be honest, when did you get another little sister?" Han Yu poked Lingyun with his elbow, "And such a top-tier little loli at that?"

"Did you ever ask about my family situation? Why can't I have such a cute little sister? Are you guys just envious, jealous, and hateful?" Lingyun swept a glance at Huang Luo and the other two, replying in a rogue's tone.

Huang Luo and the other two looked at each other and were just about to retort when a pleasant voice came from the kitchen: "Ling-kun, have your friends arrived?"

Hearing this voice, Huang Luo and the other two were shocked and looked toward the kitchen. A woman carrying a plate walked out; who else could it be but Busujima Saeko? However, Busujima Saeko's hair color had turned black, which was clearly Luo Yexi's handiwork.

"Ling-kun?" Hearing how Busujima Saeko addressed Lingyun, Huang Luo and the other two were stunned for a moment, then their gazes shifted in unison to Lingyun. "When did you get such a beautiful R Country girl here?"

"About that, didn't I say it before? I went to pick people up; those two are the people I went to pick up." Lingyun shrugged.

"Alright, Fourth, you're impressive. Since when did you even know such top-tier beauties? I thought it was amazing enough that you had Ye Xi as a disciple, but it seems we still underestimated you." Liu Feng gave Lingyun a thumbs up.

Lingyun smiled at them: "Let me introduce you. This is Busujima Saeko, and as for this little girl, she is Xili Ailisi. They are my roommates, Huang Luo, Han Yu, and Liu Feng."

"Nice to meet you, please take care of me." Busujima Saeko placed the plate on the table and bowed slightly to Huang Luo and the other two.

Facing Busujima Saeko, Huang Luo and the other two couldn't help but become serious and returned the bow: "Please take care of us too."

Watching this scene, Lingyun couldn't help but smile slightly. It seems the information shielding is quite useful; at least Huang Luo and the other two didn't associate them with the female leads from High School of the Dead.

"Ahem, no need to be so formal." Luo Yexi walked out of the kitchen carrying a plate. "The food is ready. Since you're here, stay and eat."

"Sounds good." Hearing that they could stay for dinner, Han Yu, the foodie, already had his eyes glowing.

At the dinner table, the people present felt much less constrained. Liu Feng asked Busujima Saeko with interest: "Classmate Busujima Saeko, what exactly is your relationship with our Fourth?"

"About that, I am currently learning by Ling-kun's side," Busujima Saeko replied.

"Learning by Fourth's side?" Huang Luo and the other two looked at each other in dismay. They previously knew that Lingyun was Luo Yexi's master in Guqin, and now such a beautiful girl was saying she was also learning by Lingyun's side. It seems Fourth really is full of hidden talents!

However, all three of them tacitly chose not to ask what Busujima Saeko was learning by Lingyun's side; since Busujima Saeko didn't say, they felt embarrassed to ask.

After the meal, Huang Luo and the other two sat on the sofa with no regard for their image, their right hands rubbing their abdomens; it was clear they were stuffed.

"Fourth, you really are lucky, having two girls with such superb culinary skills by your side. You won't have to worry about food in the future," Han Yu burped and said to Lingyun with an envious look.

"My culinary skills were all taught to me by Master," Luo Yexi suddenly spoke up from the side.

"Really?" Liu Feng looked at Lingyun with a surprised expression. "Fourth, I'm getting more and more curious now. What other talents do you have that haven't been revealed yet?"

Lingyun just smiled and didn't answer.

Suddenly, Luo Yexi's phone rang. She smiled apologetically at everyone present and then went outside to answer the call.

Before long, Luo Yexi returned and placed the phone on the table.

"Master, the student council just called me, inviting me to perform at the school's freshman welcome party," Luo Yexi said to Lingyun.

"Student council? The school's freshman welcome party?" Lingyun frowned slightly. "Aren't the programs for the welcome party supposed to be self-registered? You didn't seem to sign up at the time, right? By the way, who called?"

"It was Sister Chen Jing."

"Chen Jing?" Lingyun raised an eyebrow, "You know her?"

"Yes, we met a while ago. I also met a sister named Su Wanyue at the same time. Both of them are very kind to me. I had demonstrated my Guqin skills in front of them before, and I guess that's the reason she invited me." Luo Yexi nodded.

"So, do you want to participate? If you don't want to, I can help you decline."

"Master, you know Sister Chen Jing too?" Luo Yexi asked with some curiosity.

"High school classmate!" Lingyun said indifferently, completely ignoring the disbelieving expressions of Huang Luo and the other two beside him.

"No need, Master. I want to participate. I want everyone to see the Guqin skills you passed on to me!" Luo Yexi smiled.

"Is that so? That's fine, go ahead and participate," Lingyun said to Luo Yexi with a smile.
