Xiaomi came to visit Wan Qinxiu. She had a motive in mind. She wanted Wan Qinxiu to send her to the Dark Realm. She does not know but with his skills, she just knew he was the right person to talked to. She wanted to talk to Demon Prince Mu Yuhan regarding of Wang Xiaolian. She wanted to ask for his help and solve the situation of him mistaking her for Wang Xiaolian.
“What makes you think I will send you to that dangerous place?” Wan Qinxiu question her as he sat leisurely, “I do not want trouble all I want is to live peacefully without offending any realm.” He said smelling the air.
Xiaomi kneel to him, “Brother Wan I know you have a way! I am doing this to find my sister only please help me!” She kowtow to him. He helps her up and sigh, “Miss Wang… The Dark Realm is not a place you can go and leave as you like. I am afraid I cannot help you on this.” He turn around and walks away but she suddenly grab onto his leg and cries, “Brother Wan! Please help me! I have no other choice but you’re the most knowledgeable so I have no choice but to beg for your help!” She started crying out loud.
He covers his ear and shout, “Stop!” She stops and he continue, “Alright, get up first.” She got up and look at him with tears in her eyes. He removes his hand from his ears and sigh, “I cannot take you but I can contact Hei Bai for you.” Xiaomi wipes off her tears and her mood seems to be lighten up a lot.
A few hours pass by, Hei Bai and Prince Mu Yuhan personally visited Wan Qinxiu’s residence. Only the two of them came this time with no ill intention. Hei Bai knocks on the door and Wan QInxiu opens the big double bolted door for them to enter. “Please come in,” he invited them in then shut the door after they enter, “Have a nice chat, I will be taking a nap. I am sure this time you won’t kidnap her,” he yawn and turn around to head back to his chamber to sleep.
Mu Yuhan order Hei Bai to keep watch and don’t approach them until he is being call. He headed to the square yard to sit across from Wang Xiaomi. He smiles, “Ah Lian, I am finally here. What is it that you wanted?” He looks at her pretty face and smiles.
Xiaomi looks at him and looks away, “Prince Mu Yuhan, please call me Xiaomi. I know this is sudden and you must be wondering why I want to see you but it is because it is very important to both you and I.” She started off, “I just found out from my parents not too long ago that I have a twin sister…” She pauses, “and the girl you’re searching for is not me but her. I’m also looking for her and thought maybe we should join hands to look for her.” She turn back to look at him, but found him lean so close to her face almost too close. She backs away immediately in shyness.
“What kind of tricks are you trying to pull this time?” He grins as he looks at her.
She said shyly, “I know you won’t believe me… but have you ever thought I am nothing like her? How was she like? Was she exactly like me, act like me, talk like me, walk like me?” She pushes her questions.

Mu Yuhan’s grin slowly fades away and he thought about it for a while. He looks at her and then thought of the Xiaolian he knew, he found them way too different apart. He ask her, “Do you garden? Do you know herbs? Do you know martial arts?”
Xiaomi shook her head, “I don’t know any of those… I am the Great General Wang’s daughter, I don’t do chores, farm, or know any martial arts. I tried but I failed again and again…” She said feeling guilty remembering of Lan Shuixin’s situation, “I even caused harm to Brother Lan…” She pursed her lips.
In the middle of the night, Wan Qinxiu woke up feeling thirsty. He got up and went to the kitchen but found Mu Yuhan still there sitting at the table in his courtyard. “She left already… you should too…” Wan Qinxiu yawns, “I need to get back to bed.” He ignores Mu Yuhan and walks off to the kitchen to get water and head back to his chamber but to his surprised, as soon as he walks in Mu Yuhan was sleeping in his bed already. “What are you doing? Hei Bai, take your prince and get the heck out of here.” He said glaring at Hei Bai. Hei Bai was standing outside his chamber not moving an inch. He only listens to Mu Yuhan’s order and no one else. “Get off my bed. What do you want? Say it and leave!” He went straight to the point and went to sit on his study table glaring straight across the room at Mu Yuhan, whose lying down on his futon.
Mu Yuhan slowly gets up and stare at Wan Qinxiu across the room. He grins, “Brother Wan, why are you so impatient? I am tired so I thought perhaps I should rest for a while.” He chuckles, “You’re the only being on this Earth that love to sleep with your mask on. I am impressed on how long you can keep a mask on.” He added, “Now I am curious what kind of face is underneath that mask of yours…” He made a playful expression.
Wan Qinxiu yawns, “It is late, you should head back. I need to sleep. You can take this mask off of me if you wish but then the only condition is you must marry me. If you want the whole world to know then go for it. I wouldn’t mind it much since you’re a beauty yourself. I promised myself to marry the first person whom took off my mask so… get away from me,” he said walking to his bed kicking him off his bed and lie on his bed going back to sleep.
“Interesting…” Mu Yuhan said as he watches Wan Qinxiu, “Then I won’t ruin your marriage life. You take care.” He said leaving out the door, “I will see you again.”

Mo Qingfeng had sent an invitation over to Wan Qinxiu to go with him to Tao Sect as they are holding a get-together feast that year. Wan Qinxiu felt that it is not appropriate for him to tag along, but Mo Qingfeng dragged him along anyways ignoring his thoughts. Wan Qinxiu have no choice but to tagged along a as a guest. He does not like it as every feast every year they would held a competition for whose the best and every year seems to have a big commotion at last that is what he heard and if it is like last time with Qingyun Sect then he does not want to go.

Mo Qingfeng was instructed to go first to Tao Sect and make a stop at Yueshui Town to rent a hotel for the sect to rest when they reach there. Mo Qingfeng summon his sword and told Wan Qinxiu to get behind him. They are going to ride his sword to get there. This method at most will be a day then by sundown they should get to Yueshui Town. Mo Qingyan tag along with them but she ride her own sword. Given men and women, Wan Qinxiu did not ride with her but with Mo Qingfeng.
“Brother Mo, I am tired… I will take a rest for a while,” Wan Qinxiu yawn and lean his head against Mo Qingfeng’s back and started dozing off. Mo Qingyan looks at her brother and was so envious, ‘Hmph, why can’t it be me that he lean against? But why my brother?!’ She gave Mo Qingfeng an ugly stare. It made Mo Qingfeng uncomfortable but he continues to ignore the look his sister grave him. They took off right away like a shooting star you couldn’t catch. That technique of travel is hard especially flying all day without resting. Only students that can travel by their swords are allow to leave Mt. Qingyun.
By sunset, they finally reach Yueshui Town. Mo Qingfeng said he will head to the most luxurious inn to book the hotel for the sect while Wan Qinxiu can bring Mo Qingyan to look around the town. Wan Qinxiu brought Mo Qingyan to a a luxurious looking shop that made clothes. The three-story high clothing shop was so busy that nobody came to greet them upon their arrival. Mo Qingyan turn to Wan Qinxiu and ask, “Brother Wan, why did you bring me here?” She looks at him passionately.
Wan Qinxiu looks at her and half smile replying, “I want to buy you a new set of clothes, wouldn’t it be nice to get you the most beautiful outfit in this town?” He looks around and found an associate and approaches the associate and asks, “Miss, may I ask what is the most expensive and beautiful clothing this store offer? However the price, I will buy it,” little did he realize the associate was drooling upon seeing him approaching her. She was at a loss for words as she blushes not knowing what to answer. Mo Qingyan realized the female associate was blushing shyly and got in front of Wan Qinxiu and ask, “What are you looking at?” The female worker shook and turn to run away not answering her. “How weird… is she not selling clothes or what?” Mo Qingyan wonders.
“What a beautiful man!” A rich lady exclaims looking at Wan Qinxiu and this causes the whole store to freeze and turn to Wan Qinxiu’s direction.
“Brother Wan, you’re too handsome perhaps we should leave before,” Mo Qingyan advises turning around and was about to walk away when a sweet female voice can be heard from the third floor, “I never knew such a beautiful man existed for I thought Lan Shuixin is the most beautiful and handsome man, who knew there is another man that can rival his appearance.” Her figure appear on the third floor right in the center staring down at them with a fan in her hand blocking her face revealing only the top half of her face. She was a beautiful woman even Mo Qingyan can tell her look is extraordinary. “Just that… he have an unfortunate fortune to be blind…” She acting pitifully.
Wan Qinxiu looks up at her and reply not smiling nor showing any sign of emotion, “Brother Lan is fortunate he will be cure soon. For what fortune do I owe for receiving your great greeting.” He did not give her a chance to speak and he continues, “We are here to shop for Miss Mo so please excuse us and continue whatever you’re doing.” He pulls Mo Qingyun’s hand and was about to walk out the door, but the beautiful lady on the third floor interrupted, “We have one,” then he turn to look up at her again waiting to see what she has to say, “But money cannot buy it,” she smirks, “You can call me Boss Yue you see I own this store and anything will have to go through me. I invite my two guest upstairs for a chat.” She wave her hand and instructed her servants to bring them up to third floor. Everyone was stunned and shock that Boss Yue actually personally invited two unknown people they know of nothing upstairs for a chat. That has never happened before in public. They were quite envious of the two guests.
Wan Qinxiu did not comply. He shook his head, “Unfortunately, we’ve changed our mind. We do not want anything from your store. Your clothes are just ordinary clothes we can look elsewhere.” Upon hearing this, Boss Yue’s expression turn ugly because she seems to be humiliated just now in front of her customers, guests, and workers. Wan Qinxiu grab Mo Qingyun’s hand and walks out the door, “Stop that man! He must apologize to me!” Her guards ran to block he entrance and exit and stood before Wan Qinxiu and Mo Qingyan’s way.
Wan Qinxiu smirks, “Get lost,” his voice is as cold as ice. His expression changed instantly to an emotionless glare and he seem to have a killing intent even the guards were quite afraid to stop them from leaving. With that, they left the store not giving the store another look. Mo Qingyan was so happy seeing Wan Qinxiu stood up for her once. She laughs into the night, “Brother Wan I cannot believe you have the gut to offend anyone. But why didn’t you comply to her request?” She obvious wonder what the deal was.
“Hmph,” Wan Qinxiu smirks, “She just want me to submit to her unfortunately she have to talk bad about Brother Lan. Insulting my friends are like insulting me,” he walks off to a side restaurant to dine outside. The restaurant was not the busiest and seems like there were no customers, but out of all places, he chose that restaurant to dine in. Many people just look at them like they are crazy. They seem to be rich but only dine at a rundown restaurant that is about to go out of business.
“Brother Wan, why do we dine in this restaurant instead of more extravagant one?”
“Because it is quiet here and in this uphill restaurants we can see the whole town, isn’t it for the view and food?” He half smile turning his face to look at the view. Tons of lights light up, there were buildings, lanterns, firecrackers being set off, like a celebration into the nights with the streets buzzing with people as if the town never sleep. Mo Qingyan looks at the view and suddenly agree with him and sat with him. They order foods waiting for Mo Qingfeng.

Living in Paradise
The first thing I saw when I woke up was a group of people standing over me shouting "Happy Birthday!!!". Immediately after they start debating what type of world I came from and calling me 'William'. Later on I would learn that everyone here is reborn from another world and many children come with magic or superpowers or other gifts leftover from their old lives. I came from a world that was, to me, typical modernity. To them it was pretty boaring with the only thing interesting about my world being was a higher than average tech level for a non-spacefaring civilization; technology that wouldn't even work in this new world. All I brought with me was a peculiar mindset and the strong suspicion that there must be something more to life. Once everyone started to clear out my mother took me up in her arms, explained how the world works, and then stabbed me in the neck with a knife. I got better. -------------------- This story was written from the central idea of a simple question: What if a videogame like world, with all the normal video-game staples and tropes, was actually a real world? How would that work? How would people understand the universe around them? What sort of weirdness would the world appear to have from the point of view of someone who recognizes the odd nature of the place? And finally, if left to its own devices, how would this type of world ultimately develop?
