Gu Xiqiao didn’t sleep that night, going into the virtual space to complete her daily missions instead. She hadn’t been able to level up her calligraphy or ancient martial arts recently, and was getting slightly frustrated at that, so she decided to research more information in the virtual space with the system spirit.

 If anyone else knew her thoughts, they would probably want to strangle her. She had reached Bone Refinement level after just a few months, and that itself was already unheard of, and now she was complaining that it was too slow?

 The database that the system had was comprehensive, and with Gu Xiqiao’s mental power and being able to read ten lines at a glance, they still hadn’t even gone through one-tenth of it. She didn’t know how long she was in the virtual space, and the books around her had piled up like a small mountain, her mind completely occupied by the data and information that she was going through.

 There was also a pile of books next to the system spirit, as the spirit itself was data, all it needed to do was scan the books to extract the information.

 Although, even saying that it was just a bunch of data, it could also get tired. So it decided to sneak a break, and looked over to Gu Xiqiao who was sitting opposite it, but it suddenly realized that something was wrong with her, and issued a warning immediately, [Beauty Qiao, wake up, your mental power is about to collapse!]

 After sounding out the alarm, it booted Gu Xiqiao out of the void with its authority immediately.

 The familiar voice pierced through the haze in her mind, and Gu Xiqiao opened her eyes. Her head hurt, and it felt like thousands of needles stabbing her brain, the pain coming in waves after waves. Her pale lips were pressed together tightly, all the blood had drained from her face. During this time, strands of black mist slowly inched toward her. Just when it was about to touch her body, a golden light flickered out from her, making the mist evaporate instantly.

 Gu Xiqiao’s endurance was extremely strong, managing to calm herself after about ten minutes. Hearing footsteps coming from the corridor, she immediately turned on her computer, opening a game.

 A knock sounded on her door not long after, and although the door was locked, she didn’t get up to open it. Instead, she waved her hands and a click was heard, and the door opened.

 Tang Qinghong stood outside the door, a pair of onyx eyes on his symmetrical face, a gentle smile on his lips. Unlike Jiang Shuxuan’s cold extravagance that made it hard for people to ignore, his was a kind of soft and silent tenderness.

 “Have you been in the room this whole time?”

 “Yeah, is there a problem?” Gu Xiqiao asked, raising her head from the screen to look at him with an indifferent expression on her face.

 “No, nothing.” From where he stood, Tang Qinghong could see the screen was displaying a CG scene which seemed to be ending soon. “Goodnight then.”

 Closing the door quietly, Tang Qinghong looked back at the corridor with a look of confusion on his face. He had clearly felt something unusual in the room just now, how did it just vanish suddenly? Could it be just him overthinking things?

 Seeing that Tang Qinghong had left, Gu Xiqiao calmed down. She looked at the screen and saw a group of characters, one of them was a lolita character with the username ‘For a Millenium’ on top of her head, and she was leading everyone else through the dungeon.

 The lolita character was unlike the others, whenever she struck out, a mini-boss would fall down, defeated. Lashing out to strike again, the bigger bosses health would drop by half, and soon enough, the hardest dungeon in the game was easily conquered by the group of players.
