Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
In the Yuanyang City Shop, Half City Shop, and Jiuhua Shop, most of the senior players with high cultivation strength had obtained breakthroughs after a long time of accumulation. The people who hadn’t obtained breakthroughs had acquired some understandings and inspirations.
The effect was more obvious on the old and experienced cultivators and warriors such as Gu Tingyun who had accumulated strength for a long time and experienced many regrets and powerlessness in life. In comparison, the young people obtained fewer inspirations.
However, since the old shops had many players, even a small percentage of them breaking through right there caused a great upheaval.
The long howl shocked the two nonplussed black-cloaked messages so much that they almost turned and ran. What kind of weirdos are these people?!
We’ve not come to this place for many years. How come things have changed so much in this place?! How can people make breakthroughs like this?!
The newcomers in the Canglan City Shop obviously had the same feeling.
“What… what are you doing here?” the two asked immediately.
“We are watching the livestream.” Old Man Gu Tingyun was also puzzled. “I was watching Mr. Fang’s livestream and suddenly felt the knots in my heart completely unraveling when I saw the part where Yun Tianhe took the control of his destiny from the Heaven and shot down Qionghua. Um… Then, I just…”
“What… livestream? What’s do you mean by ‘I control my destiny and not the Heavens’?” The two people looked even more baffled.
“Do you want to try it…? The Legend of Sword and Fairy 4!” Gu Tingyun said.
“Let’s try it…” They walked toward the counter in doubt.
In the Canglan City Shop, a group of people were watching the scenes on the big screen with curiosity.
On the big screen, fire rained down while the Qionghua Faction exploded into many chipped rocks and debris in the high sky. While burned by blazing heavenly fire, everything falling down the sky turned into ash before landing on the ground.
Despite some damages, they were much less serious than what they could have been.
“I never recommended mystical realms that weren’t made by the Elf Clan.” Elder Sewell still looked emotional. “But you must try this Legend of the Sword and Fairy 4!”
“How can we try it?” Adolf immediately asked.
“Um… how do we pay?!” Dwarf Elder Sauk asked loudly.
Elder Sewell pointed at Mr. Fang who was livestreaming with his virtual reality headset. “Ask the shop owner to buy a membership card!”
“Sir! I want to by a membership card!” As soon as Mr. Fang put down his virtual reality headset, he saw a large group of people swarming to him.
“Get in line! One by one! Everyone can have one… Get in line!” Soon, such shouts sounded in the shop. “I’m afraid that the new shop will soon need to be expanded again.”
Tang Yu, Xun Yuan, and other disciples of the Heavenly Academy mumbled, “Let’s go! Let’s go! Let’s go to the bathroom…”
…
As mentioned before, in the Legend of the Sword and Fairy 4, Gou Mang wouldn’t unleash his full force, and Yun Tianhe could still lose to Xuan Xiao, which meant that the only difficult battle was with the shadow of the godly dragon in Buzhou Mountain.
Obviously, it was less difficult to play than the Legend of Sword and Fairy 3 if the players didn’t want a perfect ending. With the previous training of skills, the veteran players could complete the game without much hassle.
With the strengthened items and spiritual treasures, the new players could also stumble to the end with success.
A few days later, the first group of players cleared stage one after one.
-100 years later in the Legend of Sword and Fairy 4-
Amid the crisp bird chirps and fragrant floral fragrance, the familiar and melodious notes of the flute song, Immortal Dream, sounded in Green Bird Peak. A White-haired Murong Ziying stood on the edge of the cliff, looking out into the drifting clouds in the valley.
The gorgeous sword immortal had grown into a grand master.
Liu Mengli walked over slowly, looking the same as she did 100 years ago.
Life was like a big dream. Youth turned into white hair in one instant. The only constant thing was the Heavenly Dao which permanently moved in cycles.
100 years later, the four people gathered again. On Green Bird Peak stood two tombs beside the sacrificed object, the Wangshu Sword. On one tombstone was engraved the words [Beloved Wife Han Lingsha’s Tomb] while the other tombstone was blank, and a pair of butterflies danced around the sword. The two looked back and saw a figure pushing open the door to the small wooden house and walking out. He still looked like the youth he had been 100 years ago, but his bright eyes were no longer there.
His eyes were tightly closed and couldn’t open. He changed the lives and destinies for many people. In the end, he had to pay the price.
Seeming to sense the presence of his old friends, a smile gradually appeared on his face.
Despite the many troubles in the world, it was a moment of happiness that his best friends could still come together after so many years.
For a moment, they seemed to return to the Nest Lake, Huainan King’s Tomb, Jimo Town, and Boxian Town…
Those were the best memories in their lives.
…
Without them knowing, tears came to their eyes and wetted their faces.
Messages appeared in the Legend of Sword and Fairy 4 group chat.
Song Qingfeng posted, [(Screenshot) It’s the end!]
“(Screenshot) Scattering flower petals for the ending!” Jiang Xiaoyue still had tears in her eyes.
– In the Canglan City Shop –
The group of elves had tissues in their hands. “Wuu… so touching…”
“I never knew that such a stirring story exists in this mystical realm…”
“Hiss-! Why did Lingsha die like that…”
“It seems that she died of old age, but I’m still sad…”
“It seems like we can finally return to Silver Moon Forest in peace…” Elder Sewell murmured.
At this moment, Commander Elven of the Golden Griffin Knight Legion asked leisurely, “Sir… will you host new games from the East Continent in the future?”
“New games…?!” What new games?!” Elder Sewell and the other elves perked up their extremely pointy ears.
…
Obviously, the melancholic elves needed something new to divert their attention and ease their sadness.
“New games?!” Many players who had cleared the game also looked over.
“Sir, will you host and run new games?”
“Or… do you have sequels of Assassin’s Creed or Resident Evil?”
The players in the old shops were also speculating.
Song Qingfeng said, “What do you think the next game in the shop will be?”
“Whatever it is…” Su Tianji rested her head on the computer desk in her Qzone and said, “I’ll buy it anyway!”
Su Tianji’s Qzone was completely different compared to before after meticulous care. Her residence was now a luxurious mansion, and the large fields of spiritual vegetables and spiritual fruits were flourishing under the care of the semi-automatic machines that she had bought.
She had several computers in her house and a small laptop for her to play and chat on QQ while lying on her bed.
Beside her lay a jade flute, and the sheet music for Immortal Dream was still displayed on the computer screen. Obviously, she had been practicing this song a while ago.
In the Yuanyang City Shop, Jiang Xiaoyue sat among her peers from the Heavenly Academy. Yue Bai stretched her back with force and said, “I’m bored! I finished the new game!”
Jiang Xiaoyue said in the group chat, [I think the next game must be a sequel of an old game.]
[I think it will be a brand-new game.] After all, the shop had released a sequel of Resident Evil, Brotherhood was a sequel of Assassin’s Creed, and the Legend of Sword and Fairy 4 was also a sequel. Nalan Mingxue said in the chat group, [I think the next one won’t be a sequel.]
[It’s more fun to speculate on the creator of the game, Blizzard, Ubisoft, or Soft Star.]
[We can use the process of elimination and rule out Soft Star first. After all, the Legend of Sword and Fairy 4 has just ended.]
Meanwhile, the new shop’s reputation had been growing, and it seemed like the task wasn’t so difficult to complete after all. Therefore, Mr. Fang gave the players a clue and said, “The new game will be an online game named World of Warcraft.”
“World of Warcraft?” The players in the new shop looked curious. “And what is an online game?”
