Novel Bin Chapter 373 The Real Player Yuan
"Yes, I want to stay here." Xi Meili nodded.
"Do as you please..."
The Dragon Emperor left with the others shortly after.
"What happened to her? It’s like she’s obsessed with him." The Dragon Empress asked her husband after they left, as she was unaware of the bet he made with Yuan.
"She likes him." The Dragon Emperor said with a slight smile on his face, and he continued, "And she wants to marry him."
"What?"
Everybody there turned to look at him with wide eyes filled with shock, especially Wang Xiuying and Xi Murong.
"She wants to marry that human?! A dragon with royal lineage?! That’s blasphemy towards our bloodline!" Xi Murong exclaimed, clearly disapproving of her decision.
Meanwhile, Wang Xiuying wondered what would happen if a player marries an NPC.
’There are plenty of players out there that are currently in a romantic relationship with an NPC, so I guess marriage isn’t too far-fetched...’ She thought to herself.
"I think it’s cute." The Dragon Empress said, and she continued, "I couldn’t care less if she wants to marry a human or a dragon. I only care about one thing— his qualifications. And from my understanding, Yuan is more than qualified to join our Royal Family."
"Y-You too, mother?" Xi Murong looked at her with disbelief.
"Anyways, it’s her decision, and I will respect it." The Dragon Empress said.
Then she looked at Xi Murong and said, "If you have a problem with it, why don’t you confront her about it?"
"I... I would rather not..." Xi Murong responded in a reserved voice.
Despite being the older one, he feared Xi Meili a little, especially whenever she’s angry.
Sometime later, the Royal Family returned to their business whilst Wang Xiuying returned to her room before logging off.
"Since it’s going to take some time before he wakes up, I’ll take a small break from the game and help grandpa out at the hospital." Wang Xiuying mumbled to herself after leaving the game.
After stretching her body, Wang Xiuying left her room and went downstairs to watch some television.
In this day and age that’s dominated by video games, it was only natural for television to be heavily involved with video games. In fact, the most popular channels in the world are gaming channels that talk about the current trends and whatnot for certain video games.
"Let’s see if there are any new trends for Cultivation Online..." Wang Xiuying went to the channel that was dedicated to Cultivation Online news.
"Today, we will be interviewing one of the players in Cultivation Online who claims to be Player Yuan!" The speaker on the television spoke while a young man wearing a black mask sat beside him.
Wang Xiuying immediately raised her eyebrows after seeing this ’Player Yuan’ who was obviously a fake.
"Another one? How many people have come forward as the real Player Yuan now? I have already lost count. These people clearly know he’s a fake, yet they are still giving him a spotlight. What are these people thinking?" Wang Xiuying shook her head.
Because of Player Yuan’s fame and the fact that nobody knows his real identity, it was only natural for people to try and claim they were Player Yuan and steal his fame, but alas, not a single person has managed to prove themselves to be the real one despite dozens of people coming forward as the real one.
"Tell me— and the audience watching this— why should we believe you when you claim to be Player Yuan? What kind of proof can you provide us that proves you’re the real one? And if you are indeed the real one, why have you suddenly decided to reveal yourself after remaining lowkey for so long?"
The man with the black mask then spoke in a confident voice, "I simply got bored of hiding, so I decided to come out of hiding. As for whether I have proof or not— of course, I have proof. Why else would I come all the way over here?"
The presenter then said with a stiff smile on his face, "You sound so confident that I am already starting to believe you."
And he continued, "Let’s start with the easy questions first."
"Why did you decide to play Cultivation Online?"
"Because I was bored."
"What cultivation are you currently in Cultivation Online?"
"First level Spirit Master."
"How old are you?"
"Eighteen years old."
"What are you currently doing in the event known as Mystic Realm?"
"Nothing too crazy. I’m just farming some magical beasts for points."
"Why have you refused to come out despite so many offers to reveal your identity?"
"I was skeptical of them, and I still am."
Wang Xiuying shook her head again.
"This is all common knowledge by now. What a waste of time."
Ever since Yuan’s age and cultivation level was revealed right before they entered the Mystic Realm, it was spread throughout the internet like wildfire.
Many people couldn’t believe how far ahead he actually was compared to the top players, much less the average players, and even more people were shocked by his young age.
After asking ’Player Yuan’ a dozen useless questions that didn’t directly prove that he was the real Player Yuan, the presenter then said, "This is all for today. Follow us on the next episode tomorrow for more proof! Find out whether he’s really Player Yuan or just another phony tomorrow here, Cultivation Online Daily News!"
"What an idiot." Wang Xiuying closed the television afterward, no longer feeling any will to continue watching.
"Guess I’ll go to the hospital now and see if grandpa needs any help there."
Thus, she took a few minutes to prepare herself before leaving the house.
