Wait, How Did My Digital Girlfriend Become a Sword Immortal?

Chapter 72: That’s It? Just Some Grass? 

Although this game was pretty outdated, Chen Huai’an instantly recognized that the Cave Residence System was just a reskinned version of the classic QQ Farm.

"If I set up this so-called Beast Pen, I bet I could even raise some Spirit Chickens and Spirit Cows in here."

Chen Huai’an scoffed, then upgraded Li Qingran’s cave residence to Level 2.

With a flash of golden light, her small wooden hut expanded, now larger by an entire section.

Two new side rooms appeared as well—

One with a bathing tub, the other with a stove for cooking.

"Can’t forget the Spiritual Qi."

Chen Huai’an took a moment to observe the terrain.

The mountain itself already had a Basic Spirit Gathering Formation.

But if he added another Basic Spirit Gathering Formation inside the house, the effects would nearly match those of an Intermediate Formation.

And the best part?

It didn’t require extra materials—perfect for a spendthrift like him.

Charge!

Basic Black Armor Formation—gotta keep Qingran safe.

Charge!

After a few more microtransactions, the cave residence had completely transformed.

It still wasn’t a luxurious pavilion, but it had refined aesthetics—clean, elegant, and fully equipped with all essentials.

In Qingyun Sect, this would be considered a high-class residence.

In Sword Pavilion?

A literal dream mansion.

Just as Chen Huai’an was considering what else to charge for—

A soft, hesitant voice came from the game.

“M-Master… please, that’s enough… this is too much…”

Li Qingran stood at the edge of her bed, her small hands nervously gripping her sleeves, her delicate face flushed bright red.

She had already witnessed Master’s mystical abilities before, so she wasn’t shocked.

But now—

Her cave residence had changed so much—how was she supposed to explain this to her fellow disciples?!

She couldn’t possibly say she built all this herself, right?!

"Qingran says this is enough?"

Chen Huai’an thought otherwise.

A girl saying "I don’t need it" means she definitely wants it.

【"Qingran, everyone else has Spiritual Fields. Master will set up some for you too!"】

“Ah! Master, no, please—!”

【"Ten large plots should be enough, right?"】

“Ten?!”

Li Qingran vaguely remembered that Senior Sister only had two plots.

And she had boasted about them, since cultivating a fertile Spiritual Field was no easy feat.

Now, Master just casually offers her ten?!

【"Alright, ten it is!"】

BOOM BOOM BOOM—!

The land surrounding the wooden hut trembled.

Ten glowing plots of fertile Spiritual Fields emerged from the ground.

Chen Huai’an even upgraded them a bit.

Now, they were all Level 1 Spiritual Fields.

"Alright, that should do it."

"Any more and I’ll be broke."

"Gotta save some emergency funds."

Li Qingran trembled as she opened the door.

She stared at the vast stretch of fertile fields, then her knees gave out.

She collapsed onto the ground, eyes shut in despair.

"I’m done for. Completely doomed."

Once Master gives something, there’s no taking it back.

She could already see the future.

She was about to become Sword Pavilion’s biggest legend.

Would the other disciples start calling her "Master’s Favorite Disciple" behind her back?!

Meanwhile, Chen Huai’an Wasn’t Done

【"This outfit looks nice. Wear it to sleep!"】

A piece of clothing dropped onto the bed.

Li Qingran picked it up—

And her face turned as red as a tomato.

It was a white silk nightgown—

The back was completely open.

The waist and hips were tightly fitted.

There was a slit up to the thighs.

One look, and it was obvious—

This dress would perfectly showcase every curve.

No way she could wear this outside.

Did Master… want her to wear this to bed?

Could that mean…

Master wants to see her in it?!

Ahhhh, she couldn’t think about it!

Too embarrassing!!

Her face burned, turning so red it reached her ears.

"I’ve never worn anything this revealing before!"

“…But if this is Master’s request… maybe it’s okay…”

As Li Qingran spiraled into her own thoughts—

Chen Huai’an had already logged out of the Virtual Girlfriend Shop.

In reality—

He hadn’t thought that deeply at all.

The shop had randomly refreshed this discounted sleepwear for only 18 yuan.

"Might as well buy it."

Quest Update

【Main Quest 2.0: Help Your Virtual Girlfriend Establish Herself in Her New "Foster Home"—COMPLETED】

Rewards:

Nine-Turn Spirit Orchid (Delivered)

A Pot of Nuwa’s Earth (Delivered)

【Main Quest 3.0: Zhongzhou Secret Realm Instance opens in 30 days! Increase your Virtual Girlfriend’s Survival Rate in the instance! Every 30% increase earns a "Heavenly Insight."** Current survival rate: 0%.**】

THUD!

A familiar sound echoed at the door.

Chen Huai’an was unfazed.

Another mysterious delivery.

He wasn’t in a hurry—those items could be picked up anytime.

Right now, he was more focused on Main Quest 3.0.

"Finally, the first dungeon is about to start."

He had long suspected that this MMO-type game would have instances.

With such a massive map, there had to be plenty to explore—maybe even World Bosses!

Leaving Wanqing Mountain was just leaving the tutorial.

Joining Sword Pavilion was where the real game began.

From now on, he would experience the Cangyun Realm’s power struggles through Li Qingran’s perspective.

And with that—

Endless dangers.

Some would be scripted events.

Some would be triggered by players.

And Zhongzhou Secret Realm seemed to be a scripted event.

"What if I just don’t let Li Qingran go?"

Chen Huai’an stroked his chin.

With their high favorability, he might actually convince her to skip it.

…Of course, he’d soon realize how naive that idea was.

"Doesn’t matter if she goes or not—her survival rate needs to increase either way."

He checked Li Qingran’s status.

【Status: Daydreaming】

【Cultivation Progress: 399/800 (Qi Refinement 3rd Layer)】

【Remaining Lifespan: 143 years】

【Favorability: 85 (Budding Affection)】

She was blushing, lost in fantasy, surrounded by pink bubbles.

Her cultivation had reached Qi Refinement 3rd Layer.

And with 0% survival rate, that meant her current strength wasn’t enough for the Secret Realm.

She needed rapid improvement—both in techniques and power.

"Looks like I need to hurry up and master the Green Lotus Sword Manual myself…"

Then again, there was a full month left.

He should have plenty of time.

As a pay-to-win player, he just needed to charge money and enjoy the game.

It was the developers and game designers who had to worry about balance.

"Alright, time to grab my delivery."

Chen Huai’an opened the door.

As usual, two boxes sat outside.

One had a tiny sprout peeking out.

The other was heavy with a faint earthy smell.

"Nine-Turn Spirit Orchid? Nuwa’s Earth? Sounds kinda mystical…"

He brought the dusty boxes inside and grabbed a pair of scissors and wet wipes.

On the coffee table—

Baji, who had been half-dead from spicy duck, suddenly flipped over.

Its cat eyes glowed, locking onto the boxes.
