Nobody told me this wasn't a game.

Zuo Chang turned his head: "What's wrong?"

"Hmm... how should I put it?"

Melville looked at the heavily armored warrior, who was faintly visible in the mist: "How do you know he won't attack us?"

Zuo Chang, with his hands in his pockets, said, "I'm not sure if he'll make a move. The only thing I'm sure of is that if he does, he'll die. With his skills, I could easily teach him a lesson."

"Y-yes, that's true! I've witnessed your strength, senior."

Melville glanced back again.

"His four teammates seem to be unconscious? Who did this? I didn't hear a sound!"

It was Zuo Chang who made it.

As the Yin Sword transforms into the Yang Sword, everyone who has been harmed by the Yin Sword must consume a "Yin Jue" (a type of poison).

The damage dealt by the Ancient Tree Guardian, which inherits the "Shadow Sword Form," is also Shadow Sword damage.

Of the five, only the heavily armed warrior survived; the rest were fatally cursed during the transformation of the Yin Sword!

Without needing to lift a finger, Zuo Chang easily took their lives.

but……

Zuo Chang did not intend to reveal this information to Melville; this move might be the one that sends her to her doom.

Zuo Chang remained silent, and Melville did not press the matter.

She gave him a disapproving look and changed the subject: "Senior... there's one more thing. Wasn't your wording inappropriate just now? What do you mean by 'you and your puppy'? Who does 'your puppy' refer to, me?"

Zuo Chang nodded: "Yes."

"you……"

Melville stared wide-eyed and pursed his lips, looking—

Not angry.

On the contrary, she was secretly pleased.

She bent down, partly to emphasize the scenery in front of her, making it seem even more rugged, and partly to look up at Zuo Chang, highlighting her playfulness and cuteness: "Hey senior! Have you ever seen a puppy as cute as me? You've offended me!"

Zuo Chang remained calm. Meeting Melville's gaze, he said, "It was offensive for me to call you a dog, but wasn't it offensive for you to call me a commoner? This is my reasonable retaliation against you, and you shouldn't protest."

“…Okay, I can accept that.”

Melville suppressed her coquettishness and curled her red lips into a smile.

She blinked and said, "However, this title can only be used in private, and cannot be revealed in front of others, okay? In return, cough cough. If you wish, I can call you... Master. Just secretly."

Zuo Chang turned to look at her, somewhat embarrassed: "Huh? Not everyone can be my dog. I'm just barking randomly. I have no intention of raising you. Don't take it seriously."

Melville's smile vanished.

Chapter 200 Theme Park Guide

Zuo Chang and Melville retraced their steps, spotting a few glimmers of light in the mist along the way, but they did not make contact; instead, they let them escape.

Upon reaching the shrine, a burst of cheerful laughter suddenly rang out.

It seemed that someone was chatting and laughing with Lu Zheng, and the two were having a very pleasant conversation.

Zuo Chang and Melville were slightly taken aback, wondering what had happened.

They cautiously approached and saw...

A picnic blanket was laid out on the ground, covered with fine wine and food. Next to it was a barbecue grill, with skewers of meat sizzling and dripping oil on the charcoal fire, looking very tempting.

"Oh! You're back!"

Lu Zheng sat on the picnic blanket and introduced one of them with a smile: "Your Highness, these are my two companions, Zuo Chang and Melville."

"They are?"

There was another person sitting opposite Lu Zheng.

This woman had fiery red hair and an air of nobility about her. A smile played on her lips as she glanced at Zuo Chang before fixing her gaze on Melville: "This Miss Melville is quite charming. Lu Zheng, is she your friend?"

Lu Zheng smiled and nodded: "Yes, Melville is my friend."

"is it?"

The redhead was clearly very interested.

She looked at Lu Zheng and asked, "How do you know her? Which community does she come from? Whose offspring is she?"

A barrage of questions!

Lu Zheng remained calm and answered each question one by one.

"hiss……"

On the other side, Melville whispered to Zuo Chang, "It's her! It feels illogical, yet perfectly normal."

Zuo Chang, puzzled, asked, "Who is she? Is she famous?"

"I don't know if she's famous... In short, this person comes from Community 3 and is known as the 'Romantic Princess.' She has an unusual obsession with handsome men, and she's probably got her eye on Lu Zheng now."

Upon hearing this, Zuo Chang's first reaction was dissatisfaction.

What kind of aesthetic does this romantic princess have?

Zuo Chang admitted that Lu Zheng was indeed a rare handsome man.

But is Zuo Chang really inferior to Lu Zheng?

After much thought, the only possible answer is that Lu Zheng arrived first. The princess, upon seeing Lu Zheng, was blinded by her own limited perspective and could not see anything better.

My second feeling was one of surprise.

He asked, "They didn't know each other before?"

Melville shook his head and then nodded: "I don't know. I only met Lu Zheng once. How would I know about his social circle?"

Romantic was immediately relieved to learn that Melville came from a humble background and had only met Lu Zheng once.

She said to the servant beside her, "Sit down for the two guests and treat them well."

"Yes."

Romantic, and not alone.

Standing to the side were four burly men with identical features, each robust and handsome. The leader, upon hearing the order, immediately extended his hand—

Ripples appeared in the air.

Half of his arm disappeared before Zuo Chang's eyes, reaching into another dimension;

When it was pulled back, both chairs had already been removed.

The man walked up to Zuo Chang, carrying a chair in one hand: "Please sit down, gentlemen."

"What a magical power."

Zuo Chang nodded and offered a flattering remark.

The man's expression remained unchanged, and he didn't respond with a single word; he simply returned to his original spot.

Melville, sitting next to Zuo Chang, asked, "What kind of skill is this? Manipulating objects from thin air, is it a spatial spell?"

Zuo Chang wasn't quite sure, and he said softly, "It might be 'theme park guide'."

"...What is theme park guidance?"

A very powerful skill.

The Paradise Guide is a skill that can interfere with parts of reality; it can turn soil and stone into jade. Everything that Zuo Chang, Melville, and Lu Zheng are seeing now is an illusion.

The chair you're sitting on isn't a chair.

Although it looks and feels no different from a real chair, it may actually just be a rock.

Or——

It is a human limb.

The four strong and handsome servants before him, including the seemingly beautiful "romantic princess," might differ from the image Zuo Chang had in mind.

The Paradise Guide is utterly useless in the game; it's less of an illusion and more of a powerful, permanent buff that's not very useful.

Princess Romantic had clearly heard Zuo Chang's words.

She turned to look at him, her peach blossom eyes gleaming: "Does Your Excellency know about the amusement park's guidance?"

Zuo Chang, head held high and chest puffed out, said, "I've heard a little about it."

"You also know about the effects of the amusement park?"

She is aggressive.

Zuo Chang pretended to be confused and waved his hand, saying, "I only have a vague understanding, I don't know much about it."

"..."

Princess Romantic didn't say much. She looked at Lu Zheng and smiled, "Lu Zheng, your friend is very knowledgeable. Do you know anything about amusement park guidance?"

Lu Zheng shook his head: "Is it a skill? This is the first time I've heard of it."

Romantic reached out and picked up a skewer of juicy meat, handing it to him: "It's cooked just right, please enjoy."

Lu Zheng, without any suspicion, took it and took a big bite.

He looked pleasantly surprised and said, "That's great!"

Romantic smiled and said, "Of course. My servants are very skilled."
