40: Level up to 50 in seconds

Until dusk gradually fell.

"Ugh, I can't take it anymore~"

Yan Yan was soaked in fine beads of sweat, like a lotus emerging from water, breathtakingly beautiful, but her eyes held a hint of resentment: "Good brother, please let your elder sister go, I beg you~"

Lin Ye's expression darkened.

"You made the formula yourself, and now you're blaming me?!"

Wuwu~

Yan Yan squeezed out a few tears from the corners of her eyes: "Elder sister was wrong, elder sister will never dare again, good brother, how about you sleep in a different room tonight?"

Seeing that she seemed to be serious, Lin Ye didn't push it further. He leaned down and kissed away the tears from the corners of her eyes, smacking his lips: "Alright, then this one's on credit, we'll settle it tomorrow."

He got up and left.

He walked to the next room.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw Bai Shuya holding a paper cup, eavesdropping against the wall.

"Huh?"

When Bai Shuya saw Lin Ye, she seemed to be under a freezing spell, stuck in place, unable to move, but her peachy eyes couldn't help but fall on that towering figure.

The next second, Bai Shuya's already flushed cheeks turned even redder.

"You..."

Before she could finish speaking, Lin Ye casually closed the door and lunged forward, covering her mouth, and whispered sharply.

"Shh, what are you doing?!"

Mmm mmm mmm~~!!

Before she could reply, Lin Ye directly carried her into the bathroom and closed the door.

Only then did he let go.

"Alright, Miss Bai, what exactly do you want to do?!"

"Want... I just want to..." Bai Shuya's mind seemed to be rusty; she couldn't find the words to speak.

Seeing her like this, Lin Ye was speechless. He reached out and turned on the shower.

Whoosh~

He went to take a shower himself, to calm down.

However, after the shower, he felt clear-headed.

But when he turned his head, he found Bai Shuya kneeling on the floor, fully displaying her curvaceous figure and exquisite curves. Her well-defined, cool, and stunningly beautiful face was now even more alluring in its daze.

The slight heat that Lin Ye had just managed to dissipate was now reignited with renewed vigor.

"Sigh, what am I going to do with you? Do you really want to know how many minutes I last?"

Huh?

Bai Shuya slowly came back to her senses, her peachy eyes brimming with spring, giving a shy glance, then suddenly raising her head proudly: "This doesn't count. That woman Yan Yan cheated today. She probably gave you all her best medicinal ingredients."

Still not convinced?

Lin Ye's eyebrow twitched, and a wicked glint flashed in his eyes.

He immediately took a few steps forward, going straight for Bai Shuya's pretty face.

"Come on, why don't you try it yourself?"

I...

Bai Shuya instinctively wanted to turn her face away, but then her stubbornness took over: "Will I be afraid of you?!"

But Lin Ye, with his heart burning, couldn't care less about that.

The next second, Bai Shuya's pupils dilated, and she looked up in shock, glaring at Lin Ye with wide eyes.

......

After a long time, Lin Ye showed no movement, but Bai Shuya grew anxious and pushed him away slightly.

Mmm, ugh~

She took several deep breaths, then frowned and glared at him, complaining: "Are you even human?!"

Lin Ye, however, smiled wickedly: "Miss Bai, did you time it?"

I...

Bai Shuya snorted coldly, then opened her mouth again: "Even if I didn't time it, you still used medicine!"

Lin Ye: "Then next time...?"

"Okay..."

Lin Ye rubbed her head with one hand: "But before next time, we have to solve this time's problem first, right?"

Bai Shuya couldn't even speak now; she could only let Lin Ye bully her.

She was anxious inside, wishing he would hurry up.

But who knew that the rule of this world was that the more you wanted to hurry, the slower it would be.

......

Until the bright moon hung high, Lin Ye finally let out a long sigh of relief.

Bai Shuya was utterly exhausted and glared fiercely at Lin Ye, then prepared to leave.

"Miss Bai, your mouth..." Lin Ye reminded her.

Hmph!

Bai Shuya stomped her foot in anger, then wiped away the traces from the corner of her mouth with her finger, pushed the door open, and left.

Bang~

The door closed.

Bai Shuya couldn't help but lean against the wall, her legs slightly weak.

"Bai Shuya, oh Bai Shuya, what exactly are you doing?!"

"Are you crazy?!"

Bai Shuya secretly hated herself for being so weak, but her gaze inadvertently fell on her fingertips. After a moment's pause, she couldn't help but feel curious and lightly licked it.

Eww, this isn't sweet at all~

Indeed, the books are all lies!

......

The next day, Lin Ye was woken up by hunger.

Fortunately, Yan Yan and the others were already up and had prepared breakfast.

Bai Shuya immediately gave him a glare: "Miss Yan, did you use the wrong formula yesterday? The effect looks like a sleeping pill."

Oh, still not convinced?

Lin Ye smiled: "When a duck dies, only its mouth is hard."

You...

Bai Shuya's pretty face flushed, and she immediately gnashed her teeth in hatred, but she couldn't say anything, so she changed the subject: "It's past 10 AM now. Newbie Village completed its merger a few hours ago, but since it hasn't been recognized by the Astra Empire, there's no PK protection, so the entire village is now considered a wilderness area, do you understand?"

Lin Ye nodded, slowly eating his breakfast.

"Are there many people?"

"Do you even need to ask?" Bai Shuya rolled her eyes impatiently: "Dozens of guilds, along with a large number of military personnel, the entire Newbie Village is completely surrounded!"

Hmm.

Lin Ye thought for a moment and said: "Then we need to pay attention to controlling the flow. The Forgotten Land currently has a limit on the number of players it can accommodate. Also, for that cliff BOSS area, send someone to guard it, don't let players snatch it. I'll go kill it later."

Bai Shuya nodded.

"I've calculated that the Forgotten Land is quite large. Including the exploration area, it can accommodate thirty to fifty thousand players without a problem, but considering the complex terrain, it's more appropriate to temporarily limit it to ten thousand."

She had basically considered most matters; now she was only worried about one thing.

"My Demon Lord, do you have a plan now? If a battle starts later, my small number of people will at most be a decoration, you..."

Lin Ye smiled calmly, gently patting the back of her hand.

"With me here, there's no need to panic."

Bai Shuya's delicate body trembled, and her heart inexplicably felt much more at ease.

Yan Yan, on the other hand, didn't care at all, her eyes full of sweetness as she continuously put food on Lin Ye's plate.

"Alright, alright, I'm full, let's go online."

Lin Ye put down his chopsticks.

The girls had also prepared their helmets long ago.

Going online.

......

eternal.

On the border of the Astra Empire.

Looking down from the mountain range, there was a dense mass of black, all figures of players.

"Is Demon Lord scared?"

"Now that Newbie Village is designated as a wilderness area, with no PK protection, he doesn't dare to go online?"

"Probably."

"Look at these guild leaders, one by one, their eyes are red, they probably want to swallow him whole."

At this moment, hundreds of thousands of players were gathered around the outskirts of Newbie Village.

All the monster-spawning areas were crowded with people.

But, players here were also divided into factions, forming different square formations of varying sizes.

The closest in position, of course, was the Qitian Guild.

But the largest in terms of personnel was the military's Blood War Rivers and Mountains.

As for ordinary players, although they were the most numerous, they were scattered and disorganized.

Moreover, they couldn't enter Newbie Village.

Now, all the major forces seemed to have agreed, leaving a large number of people on the outskirts, with only the guild leaders and their elites allowed into the village.

Fountain Square.

Qi Feng wore a dazzling set of legendary equipment, riding a majestic golden lion, looking exceptionally mighty.

Beside him, Bian Yuerong sat atop a black unicorn, coupled with a set of black Suanni Xuanjia armor, her aura was truly extraordinary.

"When I met him yesterday, he didn't seem like someone who bluffs or is blindly overconfident, so why isn't he here now..."

At this point, Bian Yuerong couldn't help but recall the beautiful women in the room yesterday, and an incredible thought suddenly arose in her mind. Could he have overdone it?

Crazy? Or arrogant to the point of being conceited?

Suddenly, several figures landed accompanied by a teleportation light.

Bian Yuerong's pupils constricted.

"Demon Lord, he really came!"

Lin Ye's gaze swept across the entire scene.

All the guild leaders, fully equipped with top-tier gear, mounted on their rides, were all staring at him.

This aura was like the eve of an epic battle.
