958 Legacy Ranking

"Do you want to try it?" Yuan suddenly asked.

"Try? Try what?"

"Flying."

White Lotus swallowed nervously after hearing his words, and the scene of Yuan soaring through the clouds while carrying her like a princess appeared in her mind.

"Are you sure? I might be a little heavy…" White Lotus said with a stiff smile.

Although she really wanted to experience flying in the sky, she didn't have the courage to accept his offer, especially when she's wearing such a revealing dress.

"Don't worry, it'll be fine." Yuan smiled.

After a moment of silence, White Lotus nodded in a bashful manner, "Then I'll accept your offer."

Hearing her words, Yuan summoned the Empyrean Overlord and pointed at it, "Go ahead. Stand on it."

"Huh?" White Lotus looked at him with a dumbfounded face.

"I'll carry you around with my flying sword. It'll feel much better than having me carry you in my arms."

"Oh… All right…" White Lotus nodded, feeling a little disappointed that Yuan will not be carrying her.

Once she was standing on the Empyrean Overlord, White Lotus asked, "By the way, where did this sword come from?"

Yuan chuckled, "I will explain it another day since it's a bit complicated."

White Lotus nodded and didn't question any further.

"Is this your first time riding a flying sword? Have you done it before in Cultivation Online?"

"This is my first time," she said.

"Then I will hold your hand until you're comfortable with letting go." Yuan offered his hand to White Lotus, who immediately accepted it without hesitation.

"I will be back in a bit." Yuan said to Meixiu and Chu Liuxiang.

"Have fun!" Chu Liuxiang waved at them.

Yuan flew into the air with White Lotus shortly after.

White Lotus immediately tightened her grasp on Yuan's hands after feeling the sword move.

They started out slow, gradually increasing their flying speed until they maxed out at 20 miles per hour.

"What do you think about flying?" Yuan asked White Lotus.

"It's a little scary being this high up, but I really enjoy it."

"How long can you maintain being in the air?" She then asked.

"I can fly for an hour straight if I were by myself, but since I am also carrying you, I will only be able to fly for about half an hour." Want to see more chapters? Please visit p a n d a -n o v e l .c o m

"I see…"

"Are you ready to let go of my hand?" Yuan asked her a few moments later.

"Yes." White Lotus nodded, and she slowly relaxed her hands.

"How am I doing?" She asked him afterward.

"You're doing great. Do you want me to speed up more?"

"Sure."

Yuan increased their speed by another 5 miles per hour after White Lotus' approval.

"How fast does this thing go?" White Lotus asked out of curiosity.

"Do you want to see for yourself?" Yuan smiled at her.

White Lotus swallowed nervously, but she nodded her head regardless.

"Brace yourself. I will go at maximum speed in three… two… one!"

Whoosh!

The flying sword suddenly quadrupled in speed, going at nearly 100 miles per hour.

"Ahhhh!" White Lotus shouted, as she was not expecting such an explosive boost.

After remaining on the sword for a few seconds, White Lotus could no longer keep up with the speed and actually fell off the flying sword, and she started plunging towards the ground.

"Yuan!" She cried out loud.

Yuan quickly went to catch her.

"Are you okay?" He asked her.

"Yes… But that was horrifying… I now understand how Zheng Weimin felt when you dropped him…" White Lotus sighed in relief.

Once she calmed down, she realized that Yuan was carrying her like a princess, and one of his hands was even touching her breasts.

"…" White Lotus blushed when she felt Yuan's fingers firmly pressing against the side of her breasts, but she kept her mouth closed and didn't say anything, silently enjoying the situation.

"By the way…" Yuan suddenly spoke, "The Zheng Family might try to cause trouble for your family after what happened today. If that happens, you can let me know and I will do my best to assist your family. I hate people who think they can do anything because of their status— people like Zheng Weimin."

"Thank you, Yuan. I will remember your words, but my Bai Family is not weak. If the Zheng Family wishes to bully us, we will not stay silent and fight back."

After pondering for a bit, Yuan said, "I was not lying when I said that I don't know much about the Legacy Ranking. While I prefer staying out of their business, I have a feeling that I will encounter more people like Zheng Weimin in the future, so I might as well gather information now."

"You want to know more about the Legacy Ranking, right? I will tell you everything you need to know whenever you want." White Lotus said.

"Thank you."

After flying around for a few more minutes, Yuan returned to the hotel with White Lotus still in his arms.

"Thank you for the wonderful experience, Yuan. I will never forget it for the rest of my life." White Lotus said to him with a beautiful smile on her face.

"I had fun, too."

Sometime later, they returned to the table.

After ordering some drinks, White Lotus began explaining to them the Legacy Ranking and how it works.

"There are 100 slots in the Legacy Ranking from Rank 1 to Rank 100. In order to join the Legacy Ranking, you must have one thing— results."

"As you probably know, video games have been immensely popular even before Cultivation Online's existence, so much so that it has ingrained itself into the majority of peoples' lives, where over half of the world's population play games to make a living."

"With how important video games have become in our world, it was only natural for people to want to monetize it. One thing led to another, and the Legacy Ranking was born, where families from all over the world fight for the top rankings in whichever video game is chosen to be the focus for that decade."
