Online Dating with Long Aotian in a Game

The old woman who had taken Lu Jinghan in died, and the village folk seized the mud-brick house she'd left him. At seven years old, he had nowhere to go, with only three taels of silver and a few copper coins in his hand.

As it happened, the Lingxiao Sect was recruiting disciples. He spent two taels of silver on a sword and set off on the path of cultivation.

Life in the mountains was harsh and lonely. He was quiet and awkward, and people didn't like him. Fortunately, his iron sword stayed by his side as he grew up.

At seventeen, Lu Jinghan was both happy and troubled. He was happy that his sword had awakened a sword spirit,

but troubled because the sword spirit was always saying things he didn't understand.

"We took this photo at the club. Do I look handsome?"

"I won first place in a long-distance race. Would you accept my medal?"

"You've seen my photos, so why are you being so stingy and not showing me yours?"

Yan Fengchun had recently been both blissfully happy and troubled. He was happy because he'd found himself a cute boyfriend.

The problem was that his boyfriend refused to show his face.

After half a year of dropping hints, both subtle and direct, to no avail, he decided to come right out with it.

"Wifey, can we video chat? (‵▽′)/"

His boyfriend was silent for three seconds, then spoke in a voice that trembled faintly despite his attempt to sound stern. His bluster carried a hint of embarrassment: "Insolence! I'm your master. How dare you call me that?"

Yan Fengchun froze for less than half a second, then chuckled, his voice full of playful teasing. "Wifey, so that's what you're into."

Reader's Guide:

1. Part of the same series as "The Comments Are Shipping Me with the Male Lead," and it shares the same worldbuilding.

2. The main story combines a cultivation world with a modern-world full-immersion online game. At the end, the bottom will break through the void and come to the top's world. The extras take place in the modern world.
