Infinite Realms: From Resident Evil and Beyond

　　…

　　"Let's talk about it later." Shen Ye touched Lu Linxuan's head again, and then said: "Let's go out, don't let your senior brother wait too long."

　　"Don't worry about him." Lu Linxuan really enjoyed the feeling when Shen Ye touched her head. She squinted her eyes and said, "It's okay to let him wait a little longer."

　　"But I'm hungry." Shen Ye patted his stomach. He was indeed hungry. Although he had eaten a lot of food yesterday, he drank even more wine.

　　When Lu Linxuan heard this, she immediately said, "Then let's go out and have breakfast."

　　As she said that, she turned around, opened the door, then took Shen Ye's arm and went out with him.

　　At this time, Li Xingyun was chatting with Zhang Zifan who had just gotten up. When he heard the door open, he turned around and waved at the two of them: "Brother Shen, Junior Sister, are you done?"

　　"If you can't speak, don't speak." Lu Linxuan glared at him.

　　Li Xingyun touched his head and said awkwardly, "I mean, are you guys done talking?"

　　"That's it." Shen Ye nodded, his eyes fell on Zhang Zifan beside him, but he saw a flash of surprise and disappointment in his eyes. He couldn't help but think, good guy, he really wants to take advantage of Lu Linxuan.

　　"But you are a step late." He thought proudly again.

　　At this time, Li Xingyun suddenly came between the two of them and asked them in a low voice: "Brother Shen, Junior Sister, um...did you have that last night..."

　　"What that?" Lu Linxuan was confused, but saw Li Xingyun with a smirk on his face.

　　Then Li Xingyun gestured again: "That's the one we saw in Master's collection of books when we were little."

　　Only then did Lu Linxuan understand what Li Xingyun meant. She immediately raised her scabbard and smashed it on his head with a red face, and shouted in shame and anger: "Brother! If you keep talking nonsense, I will report it to Master."

　　"Hey, junior sister, stop hitting me. Brother Shen, please discipline her!" Li Xingyun didn't dare to fight back or dodge. He could only hold his head and ask Shen Ye for help.

　　Shen Ye smiled and reached out to grab Lu Linxuan's arm: "Okay, Xuan'er, stop fighting."

　　"Oh!" Lu Linxuan put down the scabbard obediently.

　　"Brother Shen, you are a role model for our generation!"

　　Seeing this, Li Xingyun gave Shen Ye a thumbs up again, but when he saw Lu Linxuan glaring at him, he quickly closed his mouth.

　　After calming down, Lu Linxuan said, "Brother, Brother Shen is hungry. Let's go downstairs for breakfast."

　　"Okay!" Li Xingyun touched his head which was hurt from being hit, turned around and shouted to Zhang Zifan, "Brother Zhang, let's have breakfast together."

　　Zhang Zifan closed the folding fan in his hand, smiled and nodded, "Thank you very much."

　　He didn't bring much money with him when he went out, and he spent it all long ago. Now he can only eat and drink for free.

　　Then the four of them went downstairs and chose a seat by the window. Li Xingyun waved his hand and asked the waiter to bring the delicious food.

　　Soon, delicious breakfasts were served and the four of them began to eat and chat.

　　Of course, Lu Linxuan spent most of the time talking to Shen Ye, while Li Xingyun had a very pleasant chat with Zhang Zifan.

　　However, just as several people were chatting happily, someone suddenly walked in from outside the door.

　　The man was short and had a mustache. After taking a quick glance at the lobby on the first floor, he walked towards Shen Ye and his companions.

　　"Gentlemen, I am honored to meet you." The man bowed to the four people.

　　So the four of them stopped chatting, and Li Xingyun asked in confusion: "Who are you? What's the matter?"

　　The man chuckled and said, "It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that my master wants to invite you to have a chat outside Yuzhou City."

　　"Your master?" Lu Linxuan also asked in confusion: "Who is your master? What do you want from us?"

　　"You'll know when you go there." After the man said this, he turned around and left without caring whether Shen Ye and the others agreed or not.

　　Looking at the person who disappeared in the crowd, except Shen Ye, the other three were a little confused.

　　After a long while, Li Xingyun said, "What a strange guy, Brother Shen, Junior Sister, and Brother Zhang, do you think we should go?"

　　"I don't care." Zhang Zifan was the first to answer. He tapped his palm lightly with his folding fan, looking indifferent.

　　"Let's not go." Lu Linxuan shook his head and looked at Shen Ye: "Brother Shen, what do you think?"

　　Shen Ye was drinking porridge. He looked up when he heard this. He wiped his mouth without any image and sneered, "Why should we go? They will take the initiative to find us anyway."

　　"They?" The three of them were stunned when they heard Shen Ye's words.

　　"Brother Shen, it seems you know who they are?" Zhang Zifan asked tentatively.

　　"Of course." Shen Ye nodded, then glanced at Li Xingyun and Lu Linxuan and said, "Think about who you have offended recently."

　　"You mean... the Xuanming Sect?" Li Xingyun is not stupid. He just came down the mountain yesterday. The only sect that they have a grudge against is the Xuanming Sect.

　　"This group of lingering guys are still pestering us even though we don't have the Fire Ganoderma." Lu Linxuan was furious.

　　Shen Ye shook his head: "They are not after the Fire Ganoderma this time."

　　"What's that for? Is it for me?" Li Xingyun said dissatisfiedly.

　　Then, he saw Shen Ye looking at him with a smirk on his face...

　　…

　　At the same time, Fengxiang Prefecture.

　　After a long journey of a day and a night, Ji Ruxue finally returned to Huanyinfang. At this time, she was holding a box containing the Fire Ganoderma lucidum and walking slowly up the stairs built against the mountain.

　　When she reached a waterfall, she stopped, took a deep breath, looked at the building with flying eaves and brackets in front of her, and continued to climb the stairs.

　　After a while, she walked up the last flight of stairs and stopped again.

　　At this time, a female voice as melodious as water and as beautiful as the sound of nature came from the building.

　　"Is Xue'er back? Come in!"

　　Ji Ruxue then quickly walked into the building.

　　"Empress, I have fulfilled my mission and successfully brought back the Fire Ganoderma."

　　As soon as she entered, Ji Ruxue half-knelt in front of a curtain and spoke respectfully to the woman behind the curtain, while raising the box containing the Fire Ganoderma with both hands.

　　A maid from Huanyinfang took the box from her hand, walked through the heavy curtains, bent down and held it in front of the beautiful woman known as the Empress.

　　"Thank you for your hard work, Xue'er."

　　Behind the curtain, the empress raised her eyes slightly, but did not even look at the box. Instead, she looked at Ji Ruxue through the translucent curtain and continued:

　　"I heard that a base of Huanyinfang in Yuzhou Branch was attacked by assassins of Xuanming Sect. Several sisters in that base died in the battle. I was worried that something happened to you too. Well, I'm glad you came back alive."

　　"I almost got into trouble, but was helped by an expert and was able to escape." When Ji Ruxue said this, she naturally thought of Shen Ye, and her voice became unusually soft and affectionate.

　　As the woman in charge of Huanyinfang and Fengxiang, the empress could tell that Ji Ruxue's voice was different, and she immediately said in a cold voice: "That expert... is he a man?"

　　…
