“Why are you still here?” Jiang Shuxuan walked over slowly and took the basket in Gu Xiqiao’s hand.
Gu Xiqiao chose to put Li Yanmei that still hadn’t reacted aside for a moment because she felt that explaining things was going nowhere, so she chose not to. “Brother Jiang, this is Li Yanmei. We grew up together and went to school together too in the past.”
The ink orbs turned over to look at Li Yanmei before he nodded politely. “Hello, Miss Li.”
Even though there wasn’t much emotion in his words, it was easy to feel his sincerity. In contrast to people like Tang Qinghong that put on masks and facades, he didn’t think of himself as a higher being in the slightest, humbling himself and placing everyone he talked to on the same level as him.
“Hello, Mr. Jiang.” While that was the case, Li Yanmei still didn’t know how to react, because some people had naturally intimidating auras, regardless of their intent.
Seeing that Li Yanmei still wasn’t quite used to him, Jiang Shuxuan lagged behind them by a few steps and let the two girls walk in front of him, letting Li Yanmei relax and think about how the basket that looked so out of place in his hands.
Li Yanmei looked back again, before whispering to Gu Xiqiao, “Little Gu, this guy is not bad.”
Jiang Shuxuan was dressed tidily, polite, and every word he spoke was educated and dignified, thought Li Yanmei, racking her brain to think of the appropriate adjectives to describe him.
After listening to her description, Gu Xiqiao paused for a bit before she glanced at a certain someone in the back that had a strange smile at the corner of his mouth before she looked back at Li Yanmei with a serious expression. “Don’t you think that he’s as cold as ice, emotionless and completely unapproachable?”
“You think? He doesn’t seem to be a talker, and he isn’t very expressive, sure, but I think he’s a good man…” Li Yanmei trailed off, before giggling as she suddenly realized that a certain Gu Xiqiao was being a tsundere. “Do you have any more complaints about him, Little Gu?”
A low chuckle came from behind them, and while it was almost unnoticeable, Gu Xiqiao still managed to pick it up, so she closed her mouth and didn’t speak anymore.
Thankfully, they arrived at their destination quickly, and Gu Xiqiao went upstairs to get the computer to check on the online forums.
Jiang Shuxuan sat down by her side as she did so that he could answer any questions that she had.
Gu Xiqiao typed the link into the address bar and pressed the enter key, and what popped up wasn’t the ancient martial arts forum but instead a login page. No one would be able to enter this website without a member’s ID, and her ID was written on the identification plaque that Jiang Shuxuan had given her.
Gu Xiqiao quickly registered an account with the name ‘For A Millenium’, before clicking into the forum expectantly.
In terms of looks, it was just a regular forum with several different categories—’Community Area’, ‘FAQs for Newbies’, ‘Quest Board’, ‘Rewards’, and several others.
Gu Xiqiao immediately clicked on ‘FAQs for Newbies’, which had a whole bunch of posts that she checked on and read through, before getting a certain understanding of the Ancient Martial Arts Forum.
This was the central hub of the ancient martial arts world with more than twelve thousand members, and while that sounded like a fine number, it was a pitiful amount in proportion to the population of Hua Xia, barely surpassing a millionth of the population, even if they counted the ancient martial artists that didn’t have families and sects.
