Chapter 168: Huaxia Abused Aliens When They Went to the Moon
Mu Qiu’s exclamation didn’t startle herself, but rather startled the System.
“Don’t scare me, why are you so jumpy.”
Mu Qiu: “…”
She didn’t have time to bicker with the System, because she had indeed heard a faint sound just now, the kind of dinging sound when a needle drops.
It sounded like… it was coming from the passage ahead.
This passage was too dark; even with the flame burning on Mu Qiu’s finger, she couldn’t see anything beyond a meter.
Even with Mu Qiu’s courage, such an environment was a true test of a person’s mettle.
She used Spiritual Energy to protect herself and felt her way forward step by step. Before the darkness had completely vanished, she didn’t know if she had triggered some switch.
Her eyes suddenly lit up.
It truly lit up.
A normal bedroom, like that of a human woman’s boudoir, suddenly appeared before her.
To her right, against the wall in the middle, was a large carved bed. It was pink, and silk-like curtains hung down, completely obscuring the scene on the bed.
In the center of the bedroom was a wooden round table, with a pair of red candles burning on it.
Aren’t red candles usually displayed for festive occasions?
The environment here was already eerie. It was quite sudden to transition from the Sacrifice Plaza to this.
Mu Qiu asked the System, “It hasn’t been three days yet, I haven’t switched worlds, have I?”
System: “No, you’ve only been here for half an hour.”
The System’s time was not affected by the Small World, so Mu Qiu was still in that mysterious Small World.
Mu Qiu glanced at the curtain hanging by the head of the bed. She still didn’t have the courage to lift it, fearing that a sleeping woman might be lying inside.
If this were a horror scenario, perhaps a bride with a red veil would be more likely.
On both sides were bookshelves, filled with many books. This looked like the room of a young lady.
Mu Qiu walked to the bookshelf. Ancient books didn’t have side labels for their titles.
However, the books here weren’t arranged densely, and some titles could be seen from the side.
They were actually in the local script of the Yunzhou Continent.
《Empress Daughter’s Autobiography》
《Empress Daughter’s Autobiography Two》
《Empress Daughter’s Autobiography Three》
《A View on Impeaching Elder Huang Shui of the Wu Di Sect》
《Wu Di Sect Management Approval Document》
Mu Qiu: “?”
She instinctively reached out to grab this book, as the Spirit Body outside had mentioned the strange Sect, the Wu Di Sect.
As soon as she touched the book, the environment before her changed drastically.
A gust of wind blew against her face.
She suddenly felt a moist sensation.
She looked down and saw herself standing by the stairs of the plaza, with churning clouds and mist beneath her feet.
And before her, a colossal beast’s head, with a pair of golden pupils, was coldly staring at her from within the clouds.
At her size, she only reached the beast’s pupils.
It was so close that she could clearly see the tough, bark-like skin texture on the beast’s face.
System: “This is scarier than a horror story, right.”
Mu Qiu: “…”

“Fellow Daoist, what dish is this? How can it be so delicious!”
“Ah? This? This is just a regular roasted chicken wing.”
Inside the Moon City Ruins, Lin Yuyu and Li Qianqing were sitting together.
The Moon City Ruins were vast, and they had walked for half a day without encountering anything. Even in a Small World, one would feel some loss of energy.
However, such a small loss had no impact on Cultivators. It was just that Lin Yuyu was still Live Broadcasting, and she also found it boring to just chat with Li Qianqing, so her mouth got greedy, and she took out some snacks from her Mustard Seed Bag.
Mustard Seed Bags in the Cultivation World had preservation skills, allowing one to take out food to eat at any time.
Lin Yuyu was roasting them over a fire, and even the seemingly ethereal Li Qianqing was attracted by these roasted wings.
Lin Yuyu naturally gave a skewer to Li Qianqing and, while chatting, subtly inquired for information.
Li Qianqing’s attention was easily captured by the roasted wings before her.
Cultivators indeed did not place much importance on cravings for food, but they would still have a bite or two of delicious things.
It was Li Qianqing’s first time tasting such delicious roasted wings, and she couldn’t help but feel a bit amazed, so she asked where these wings were purchased.
“A friend of mine made them.”
She had initially wanted to mention her Sect, but considering they had Smuggled their way in, Lin Yuyu deliberately avoided words like “Sect.”
Li Qianqing listened with a hint of realization, “Your friend’s culinary skills are truly excellent. Few people are willing to delve into such Mortal Food.”
Lin Yuyu shook her head, “People only live for so long, and Cultivators only live for so long. As long as one hasn’t Ascended, there will always be an end. Life is so long, so why not do some enjoyable things? Eating delicious food is also a way to bring happiness.”
Li Qianqing was slightly taken aback, and then her expression became serious, “Fellow Daoist, your words have some truth to them, but do not belittle yourself. The path to Ascension is uncertain until the very end.”
Of course, people live for happiness.
But the source of happiness is for better Cultivation.
Everyone strives their hardest for their Cultivation. Only when one is certain of their hopelessness do they become carefree.
Lin Yuyu, being so young, surely hasn’t given up hope for her own Cultivation.
Lin Yuyu: “Ah?”
She seemed a bit lost, but she could still tell that Li Qianqing disagreed with her words, so she went along with Li Qianqing’s sentiment, “Qianqing, you’re right, I was being too literal.”
【Hahaha, literal, I never thought I’d hear such a cultured word from the leader of the Imperial Guard】
【Damn it, why do my words automatically become so eloquent once I enter the Cultivation World?】
【Pure fan, I haven’t been online recently, I can’t believe this is actually a Holographic Simulation Game…】
【This game is simply too awesome. What’s the difference between this Li Qianqing and a real person?】
【It’s a shame I can only watch Lin Yuyu. I heard from Han Tian that there are more than one Player who entered the Secret Realm. What kind of Secret Realms did the other Players enter? Why aren’t they Live Broadcasting?】
【Based on the current Live Broadcast information, the story background of this Yunzhou Continent is incredibly vast. I can’t believe any game company could achieve this. Other countries must be completely baffled.】
As Lin Yuyu also started Live Broadcasting, the more information she revealed, the more people believed that this was truly a Game world.
This was because every item that appeared within it, including the special effects, was something that current Technology companies could not support long-term.
If this were a scam, could the current world afford such a cost?
Of course, Huaxia had gradually come to believe it, but for countries that had just received some vague news, it was no different than a nuclear bomb.
【Huaxia Suspected of Developing Black Technology – Discussion on Whether Huaxia Abused Aliens Upon Landing on the Moon】
【Holographic Technology OR an International Scam? Is it a Huaxia Conspiracy? Or did they obtain alien heritage on the Moon!】
【I am a Chinese-American, and I testify that my grandmother told me Huaxia indeed obtained super technology from aliens after entering the Moon, and they have been hoarding this technology!】
Huaxia people seeing foreign reports: “…”
Oh no, did our moms really abuse aliens when they went to the Moon?
