The girl stood up with a flushed face, took a few deep breaths, and finally slowly opened her eyes.

Jiang Lianqiu was lying on the bed. Although he had his eyes closed, he could still "see" the steamy bathroom, and the pair of fair arms that were constantly waving in front of him.

"It's very uncomfortable to feel soaking wet but your clothes are dry."

"You can't blame me...!"

The girl mumbled, quickly applying bubbles to her head and rubbing her hair.

She applied some more shower gel, and after hesitating for a while, she bit her lip and started.

"Let's make a promise beforehand, no, no making any weird noises!"

Jiang Lianqiu: “…”

What does it feel like to be constantly scrubbed by a girl with a pair of soft, delicate hands?

Jiang Lianqiu knew it very well - because before his body grew big enough to take care of himself, it was Belfast who took care of everything for him, including bathing.

But the feeling coming from Su Chang's side was completely different, because the feeling of being touched by someone else was different from touching yourself.

What Jiang Lianqiu felt was the feeling of Su Shang "touching herself".

The moment the foam-covered palm touched his chest, Jiang Lianqiu clearly felt the tremors caused by the arc drawn by the fingertips on his skin.

He bit the tip of his tongue subconsciously.

Su Shang paused, the tingling sensation on the tip of her tongue making her realize something. Her face instantly flushed red as if blood was about to drip, but she didn't dare to make a sound, so she could only move her hands faster...

……Dividing line……

In a blink of an eye, many days passed.

Before we knew it, it was the night of April 3rd.

Inside the editorial office of the office building of the Fuzugawa Bunko.

Although it was already nightfall, Machida Sonoko, the editor at the birthplace of the term "corporate slave," was still sitting at her workstation, reviewing the light novel manuscripts sent by her authors.

The fluorescent light from the computer screen cast a shadow on Machida Sonoko's face. When Machida Sonoko stretched her body backward, the friction between her black hip skirt and stockings made a rustling sound, and the tight shirt button was dangerously tight at the third position.

She rubbed her nose bridge, and the ends of her short hair brushed across her slender neck. The remaining drops of sweat were evaporating with the cool air from the air conditioner, emitting a mist mixed with the scent of irises.

When the computer prompt sounded, she skillfully opened her email.

The title of the new email, "Love Metronome Volume 2," made the fingertips with burgundy nail polish pause three millimeters above the enter key.

"Shi-chan is amazing!" Machida Sonoko exclaimed, "You actually submitted the manuscript for the second volume so quickly!?"

Machida Sonoko suddenly had an urge to cry. She has led many new authors and now has some well-known veterans under her, but no one can be like Kasumigaoka Utaha, who submitted the manuscript of the second volume not long after the first volume was sold.

"It would be great if everyone was like Shi-chan!"

While sighing, Machida Sonoko downloaded the document.

The moment the document was decompressed, the LED light hanging from the ceiling suddenly flashed.

Machida Sonoko and several other editors who had not yet left work looked up.

"What happened? The light is broken?"

"Is the voltage unstable?"

"Is there going to be a power outage?" an editor muttered, and quickly saved his revised document.

When Machida Sonoko saw that the lights had returned to normal, she started looking at the manuscript submitted by Kasumigaoka Utaha again.

The platinum pendant on the editor's chest swayed slightly in front of the screen. When she read the paragraph where the hero and heroine met at the shrine, the "vermilion torii" in the document suddenly split into countless compound eye-shaped pixels.

The edges of the display were oozing with the distinctive indigo glow of The Book of Eibon, but when she moved the mouse to highlight something, the cursor only left a normal highlight.

"The sound of Sayuka's footsteps counting the stone steps seemed to be mixed with the heartbeat of the 32-sided figure..."

The text suddenly began to scroll on its own. The moment Machida Sonoko noticed it, she discovered that the original description of love was being covered by some strange typesetting method - each kana was twisting and rotating.

Her plump lips unconsciously whispered: "Oth'glinY'harnath, CarcosaUlnY'ai! Vak'th'glaHastur, Zharothl'ebumnaUlnY'hor! (Carcosa beyond the veil, your yellow seal whispers in the abyss where the stars fester. The name of Hastur, the corrupt truth, rends the veil of pale dreams)..."

Editor Yamada at the next desk suddenly knocked on the partition.

"Machida-san, would you like some midnight snack?"

The male editor wearing round-frame glasses leaned over and happened to see her fingertips hovering over the delete key.

"No, no need."

She gathered her drooping hair, and her knees wrapped in stockings touched lightly under the table.

When the scroll bar reset, the squirming Pnaktic manuscript text had returned to normal font - now the screen clearly displayed "The moss on the stone steps has the wetness of first love."

Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, the three stars in Orion's belt slowly shifted positions to form a yellow seal pattern.

Another editor named Suzuki, who was walking towards the coffee machine with a mug in hand, suddenly stopped and asked, "The stars are so bright tonight!"

"It's spring after all." Machida Sonoko moistened her lips with the tip of her tongue, which was stained brown by coffee, and her nails tapped the keyboard unconsciously.

"Phew, I'll read the rest tomorrow. Shi-chan's writing style seems to be getting better and better. I feel like I'm completely useless as an editor."

"If this keeps going, maybe that kid can really make a name for himself in the world of traditional literature in the future?"

With a slight smile on her lips, Machida Sonoko thought of the beautiful girl with long black hair, and the admiration in her eyes was not concealed at all.

Machida Sonoko stood up, packed her belongings, said hello to her colleagues, and left in her high heels.

At the same time, the three stars in the constellation Orion, which were distorted in the night sky, returned to normal.

Chapter 17: A strange switch was turned on in Beifa

April 4th.

morning.

When the sun just broke through the horizon and cast the first rays of light, Jiang Lianqiu had already started his morning exercise in the basement of the villa.

With the help of the autonomous machines transferred from the star port working overtime, no one noticed. However, at noon on the second day after sharing the five senses with Su Chang, a training ground as large as half a football field appeared in the basement of the villa thanks to space expansion technology.

The floor, walls, and even the ceiling were all constructed with battleship armor-grade alloy. Not to mention Jiang Lianqiu at this moment, even if Su Shang, the new Cloud Cavalry recruit, came and struck with his sword with all his strength, he would probably only be able to leave a shallow dent on the armor-grade alloy floor.

At the same time, in the Yaoqing Immortal Boat, in Suchang’s own martial arts training ground.

"Huh! Huh! Ha! Hey!"

The little girl with twin ponytails in an apricot-yellow dress swung her sword with both arms, using the heavy sword to move her petite body, dodging and moving around constantly.

Her sword swings seemed ordinary, but each strike carried enough power to subvert ordinary human cognition.

In the underground martial arts arena, Jiang Lianqiu was holding a giant sword that Belfast had rushed to, which was exactly the same as Su Shang's heavy sword, and his movements were completely synchronized with the little girl.

At this moment, the two of them were 100% synchronized in their movements, expressions, and even breathing rates.

"Cloud Riding Sword Scripture: Suni!"

"Cloud Riding Sword Scripture: Mountain Falling!"

"Cloud Riding Sword Scripture: Knocking the Formation!"

The heavy sword in Su Chang's hand emitted a golden sword light.

Jiang Lianqiu in the underground martial arts arena also had a faint halo on his sword.

A clear sound was heard. Although the phenomenon when the sword was swung was not as conspicuous as Su Chang's, it was definitely not a miracle that an ordinary person in such a world could perform.

finally--

"Tai! Xu! Sword! Qi!!!"

“Hey!!!”

Following Su Chang's delicate cry, Jiang Lianqiu held the sword in both hands, and the swung blade brought up a strong wind, and the buzzing sound was endless. In the void where the sword blade passed, golden light lingered like the special effects of game skills. Dozens of sword blade phantoms diffused in all directions, and finally all the sword shadows merged into the giant sword that Jiang Lianqiu/Su Chang held high above their heads. The sword body suddenly expanded into a phantom several meters long, and was chopped down by the two with completely synchronized movements.

clang--! ! ! !

boom--! ! ! !

Jiang Lianqiu maintained the posture of swinging his sword to the ground, breathing heavily.

These seemingly simple movements instantly soaked his clothes with sweat. His wet black hair stuck to his face, and the sweat that slid down from his forehead flowed down along his brow bones, with some even falling on his eyelashes, making his vision blurry.

"It hurts so much, it hurts so much!"

Su Chang's wailing sounded in my mind.

"Hiss... I didn't even scream, why did you scream?"

Jiang Lianqiu's lips were almost trembling as he forced himself to laugh despite the pain of his muscles being torn apart.

Su Chang rubbed her arms and groaned bitterly, "It's been a long time since I've felt this kind of pain, like my muscles are about to tear apart from swinging a sword... Xiao Qiuzi, you still need to keep training!"

That’s right, the pain that the two shared came from Jiang Lianqiu’s own body.

No matter how reckless Su Shang was, she grew up in an interstellar civilization and had been practicing sword since childhood. She even successfully passed the assessment of the Yunqi Army and became a recruit.

Since the Cloud Cavalry can use cold weapons - at least weapons that look like cold weapons - to fight all kinds of vicious enemies on the interstellar battlefield, it means that any one of these soldiers would be considered a superman if he were to come to Earth.

Although Jiang Lianqiu's body had been receiving targeted conditioning from Belfast using the technology of the mechanical servant civilization since he was a child, he had never received real systematic training. It would have been fine if he had followed Su Shang's path step by step to practice bit by bit, but he was able to rely on the plug-in that shared the five senses to achieve complete synchronization with Su Shang when she practiced sword.

Starting from 0 frames, the difficulty of practicing is relatively hellish. Fortunately, Jiang Lianqiu asked Belfast to place a medical cabin in the basement of the villa, otherwise his body would have collapsed long ago.

Even so, Belfast was amazed at Jiang Lianqiu's body's terrifying adaptability and growth potential.

"So, I still think you should start by strengthening your body from the basics, Xiao Qiuzi. Try training your body for a hundred years first~"

Jiang Lianqiu: “…”

Jiang Lianqiu rolled his eyes and didn't intend to speak.

He is not an immortal, so who are you looking down on for taking a hundred years to train his body?

Belfast appeared silently beside Jiang Lianqiu, took the heavy sword from his hand, and then picked up his master horizontally.

"Hiss... Befa..."

"Master, you have worked hard." Belfast hugged Jiang Lianqiu gently and walked quickly to the medical cabin on the side.

After being sent to the medical cabin, before the repair fluid submerged his body, Jiang Lianqiu asked again, "What exactly is that energy that gradually emerged in my body while I was practicing with you? Was it cultivated by me myself, or was it shared with you?"

"You must have cultivated this yourself, Xiao Qiuzi, right? Just like me, I never thought that Taixu Sword Qi could be cultivated in another universe."

Su Shang waved her sword and frowned cutely.

"Ugh, it's so uncomfortable to be soaked all over!"

Half an hour later, Jiang Lianqiu walked out of the medical cabin refreshed, returned to his bedroom, and went straight into the bathroom.

Through shared vision, he "saw" that Su Shang in another world was also taking a bath after morning exercise.

At first, the two were very embarrassed, but practice makes perfect. Now, both Su Shang and Jiang Lianqiu can accept doing some private things in this state.

In Su Shang's words, this is called: the children of the Immortal Boat are not particular about trivial matters, and the soldiers of the Cloud Cavalry are upright and honest. As a girl, I have accepted it, so why are you, as a man, still hesitant?

as well as--

"If we ever meet again, Xiao Qiuzi, you must take responsibility for seeing her naked! Otherwise, I'll tell Mom and have her beat you up!"

When Su Shang said this a few days ago, it seemed that she had never thought about whether it was really possible for them to meet each other since they were in different universes.

Soaking in her own bathtub, Su Shang rubbed the bubbles on her hands and sighed, "Xiao Qiuzi, you learn too fast. I have a feeling that you will be able to fully master the form essence in a while."

"Then, won't it be me who leads you into the next stage of Taixu Sword Qi?"

Jiang Lianqiu answered with a smile, which made Su Shang slightly stunned, and then her eyes suddenly lit up.

That’s right!

Although I don’t know why Jiang Lianqiu seems to learn so quickly, this is a huge opportunity for her when the five senses are shared.

Just like Jiang Lianqiu is making rapid progress under her guidance now, will she also be able to quickly become the world's number one female hero under Jiang Lianqiu's guidance in the future?

"Hehe, when the time comes, I will definitely work hard in secret, and then make my mother look forward to seeing it!"

“…That’s called looking at someone with new eyes.”
