"Hmph—let's make this clear first! Each to their own, don't think just because the little darling calls you 'Daddy' that I have anything to do with you!" Xiao Mo said to Lin Zheng with a proud expression, though the corner of her eye clearly showed shyness! Alright! Actually, everyone knew that this young miss probably had some feelings for Lin Zheng, but given her proud personality, touching a raw nerve at this moment was obviously a foolish choice! So Lin Zheng nodded silently, and Xiao Mo, feeling that her secret was safe, also smiled happily, playing with Xia Mo, seemingly having forgotten what she came for!

Before long, Youxi and the other two also arrived. Before they even got close, Tifa waved at Lin Zheng and the others with a beaming smile, "Shengun! Haven't seen you for days, you scoundrel, you've leveled up so fast!"

"Of course! Don't you know who I am?!" Lin Zheng said with a somewhat smug smile.

"Hmph—he's just a Shengun!" Xiao Mo said ungraciously, but when facing Tifa, she showed a smiling face, saying happily, "Guild Leader! Long time no see! I've missed you so much!"

"Hehe! After leaving Dragon Garden, I became a shut-in, rarely going out to play with everyone!" Tifa tapped her forehead apologetically. Lin Zheng really wanted to retort, "Acting cute is shameful!" But Tifa's somewhat natural attributes really made him unable to retort! Speaking of which, he already had a beast next to him who was charmed by cuteness! He glanced at Yang Qi, 'Please, when facing a girl, can you not look so thirsty, as if you're afraid others won't know you have lesbian tendencies!'

"Oh!" Tifa suddenly cried out in surprise, rushing forward and picking up Xia Mo, "Is this Xiao Jiahuo Xia Mo? She's really so cute!" Lin Zheng also remembered then that Tifa was a double-controller for lolis and shota, and had the least resistance to them! And Xia Mo was affectionate with everyone, calling them 'big sister' in such a sweet voice! Even Xiao Meng loved her immensely, let alone Tifa.

Suddenly, Lin Zheng noticed Youxi. She had been staring at Xia Mo intently, her calm eyes not looking like she had much affection for Xia Mo, but rather as if she was pondering something! And Lin Zheng also noticed that Xia Mo had secretly glanced at Youxi, seemingly a little afraid of Youxi!? Lin Zheng's heart tightened instantly. Could it be that Xia Mo was another one of those abnormal life forms? As soon as he thought of this, Lin Zheng felt his heart ache. Xia Mo was so cute, everyone liked her so much, how could it be…

Lin Zheng couldn't help but walk over to Youxi and quietly asked, "Youxi, Xia Mo, she, is she…" Lin Zheng found that he couldn't bring himself to ask further. He was very afraid of hearing a bad answer! He was sure that even when facing the strongest enemy, he had never been so nervous!

"No!" Youxi replied softly. These simple two words sounded like heavenly music to Lin Zheng's ears! Instantly! All his nervous emotions were thrown to the wind!

"Really?!" Lin Zheng asked somewhat excitedly, "Then, why have you been staring at Xia Mo? She seems a little afraid of you!?" After hearing Lin Zheng's question, Youxi looked up at her older brother. Amidst Lin Zheng's expectant gaze, Youxi lowered her head, opened the book in her hand, and quietly replied, "I won't tell you!"

"Huh?!" Lin Zheng instantly froze! This!? Was this really something Youxi would say?!

"Damn it!" Lin Zheng slapped his thigh in great regret. Why hadn't he recorded it just now? He hadn't managed to capture that adorable moment of Youxi! Lin Zheng unwillingly glanced at Youxi, only to see that Youxi was already deeply immersed in her book, as if that playful moment had never happened!

With everyone assembled, Lin Zheng immediately shared the quest with everyone. Seeing the quest's content, everyone became a little nervous. The difficulty of this quest was not small, and the crucial point was the tight time limit! Knowing the time was pressing, the group stopped chatting idly and immediately started working on killing monsters! Among the six people, the fastest at single-target killing was undoubtedly Xiao Mo! Her 14 Chain Strikes were truly terrifying! However, when it came to overall damage efficiency, Lin Zheng and Yang Qi were more formidable! Lin Zheng's Celestial Star Shattering Moon and Explosion, and Yang Qi's Golden Crow Slash and True · Flame Slash, were all ridiculously powerful area-of-effect skills! They could instantly wipe out a whole group! Especially Lin Zheng, with his Star Moon Power skill, his area-of-effect killing efficiency was even more pronounced, and his monster-killing speed far surpassed the others!

Soon, it was already dark in reality, and it was time for dinner, so they all went offline to eat. Lin Zheng and Yang Qi simply made two instant noodles to solve the problem, then went back online to continue fighting! Xiao Mo and the other girls naturally couldn't compare to them, and only came online one by one after about 40 minutes, continuing their endless monster-killing journey! However, luckily there were many people, so chatting while grinding monsters wasn't boring, and the 1.5x experience bonus definitely kept their enthusiasm high, making the killing very enjoyable! Another thing that kept the group very enthusiastic was that the Tear Clan Vengeful Spirit Elites didn't just drop the Han Ling Set for leather armor; they also dropped sets for metal armor, which greatly excited Xiao Meng and Tifa, who didn't have good defensive gear yet! Although they knew from Lin Zheng that the most important battle armor would only be dropped by the High Priest, and there likely wouldn't be any hope for it later, getting 5 pieces of the six-piece Han Ling Set for the set effect was still very good and worth collecting!

However, enthusiasm can be extinguished by fatigue. Although the girls persevered and killed until past 3 AM, they still couldn't resist the weariness and went offline to sleep one by one! The only exception was Youxi; she seemed tireless, constantly performing powerful operations of reading while casting spells. However, the energetic Youxi was still pulled offline by Xiao Meng to sleep! So, only Lin Zheng and Yang Qi were left fighting among the six people!

For a professional gamer, staying up all night was a perfectly normal thing! Although Yang Qi had just experienced an all-nighter, facing the huge temptation of an Epic quest, this guy was even more excited than if he had been injected with chicken blood, showing no signs of fatigue! This made Lin Zheng, who was exploiting this labor, feel no guilt at all!

Time passed little by little. The six people went online and offline several times, and finally, it was the third day of the quest. By now, even Yang Qi, if she were made of iron, would feel some fatigue. Red lights constantly flashed in her vision, reminding Yang Qi to go offline and rest! But Yang Qi was very stubborn, always holding her breath and fighting until now. During this time, besides going to the bathroom and eating, she actually didn't rest for a single minute! Lin Zheng was the same, but he was much better than Yang Qi. That guy had just pulled an all-nighter before, and his spirit hadn't fully recovered before he was forced to pull another all-nighter, and for two days! It was truly rare that he hadn't collapsed from exhaustion!

However, the quest was finally coming to an end! When Lin Zheng unleashed a Celestial Star Shattering Moon onto a large group of Tear Clan Vengeful Spirits, the quest completion notification finally sounded. Instantly, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Six people, killing 60,000 monsters in two days, this quest was truly not an ordinary burden! But what was worth being proud of was that they had completed the quest with 3 hours left on the timer!

"Quick! Let's turn in the quest! After finishing this quest, I, your grandma, am going to sleep for a whole day before getting up!" Thinking about turning in the quest, the tired Yang Qi also perked up. Lin Zheng nodded. It was time to turn in the quest quickly. Look at Yang Qi, she was almost at her limit. Don't let her be forcibly kicked out of the game by the system; otherwise, they wouldn't get the rewards, and that would be a tragedy!
