New member: Wu Liuqi has joined the chat group!
New member: Zhang Chulan has joined the chat group!
Yang Tao looked at the notifications. An assassin, Wu Liuqi? And Zhang Chulan from The Outcast?
After picking up the dropped items, Yang Tao returned to My World and didn't stay in the Terraria dimension any longer. When he opened the chat group, it was already in chaos because of the newcomers.
Everyone was welcoming them enthusiastically.
Ren Fa: "@Group Leader, get out here and greet them!"
Zhang Wenjing: "Why is the leader so quiet this time? Don't they usually show up right away when a new member joins?"
Tony: "@Group Leader, hurry up!"
Wu Liuqi: "Wow! Is this the latest technology from Stan Country? By the way, does anyone need a haircut? I'm offering a 9.8% discount!"
Zhang Chulan: "A chat group... like the ones in novels?"
Seeing Zhang Chulan's reaction, Yang Tao wasn't surprised. Someone from a modern world would naturally have read novels before.
Yang Tao: "Welcome to the group, both of you! Same rules as always—whoever knows their stories, upload them to the group archive for some points!"
Zhang Chulan: "Wait, are you saying I'm just a character in a story from your world?"
Ren Fa: "Not a character, exactly. It's just that your life happened to be recorded as a story in another world. Now that you're in this chat group, you can change things if you want!"
Zhang Wenjing: "I know the story of Scissor Seven! Uploading it now!"
[Zhang Wenjing has uploaded Scissor Seven to the group archive and earned 100 points.]
Ren Fa: "Then I'll upload The Outcast!"
[Ren Fa has uploaded The Outcast to the group archive and earned 100 points.]
Yang Tao: "You two should check it out. Pretty interesting stuff, especially Zhang Chulan! Too bad they censored it back then!"
"Hey, Zhang Chulan, how about sharing an uncensored HD version for us?"
Ren Fa: "Yeah, we need that HD version!"
Tony: "No idea what you guys are talking about, but it sounds amazing. HD version, please!"
Everyone was joining in, even Zhang Wenjing. Meanwhile, Zhang Chulan, who was currently on his way back to his hometown, was completely confused. Why was his story censored?
Following the group leader's instructions, he opened the group archive, found The Outcast, and started watching.
Before long, Zhang Chulan finished watching the story. His face looked completely defeated.
This was way too embarrassing!
And not just embarrassing—his story had spread to other worlds!
He quickly opened the chat group and saw that everyone was still asking for an HD version.
Zhang Chulan: "Please, I'm begging you all to drop this! I swear I didn't know about any of this!"
Yang Tao: "Don't worry about it! We're all friends now. It's just for fun and to expand our knowledge!"
Zhang Chulan: "[Image]"
Yang Tao: "Wow!"
Ren Fa: "Wow!"
Tony: "Wow!"
Zhang Wenjing: "She just sent a crying emoji. What's with all the 'wow'?"
Yang Tao: "Oh right, Zhang Chulan, there's a cultivation technique in the group's shared files. You guys can try practicing it too. Since joining the group, your body has been modified to suit any kind of cultivation."
Wu Liuqi sat on a barber shop chair, deep in thought after watching the storyline unfold.
Triggered by what he saw, his lost memories started coming back.
Wu Liuqi muttered to himself, "I can't believe I used to be this handsome!"
"Just... the hairstyle could've been better!"
Even though his memories had returned, Wu Liuqi's original personality was still in control.
At that moment, Chicken Da Bao walked in with a cigar in his beak. "Ah Qi! School's almost out! Time to sell beef offal!"
Hearing that, Wu Liuqi jumped up and dashed outside. "I'm late!!"
With that, he completely forgot about the group chat.
Zhang Chulan looked at the cultivation technique in the group files and started practicing.
He once thought that as long as he avoided cultivation, trouble wouldn't come knocking.
But after seeing the storyline, he realized—there was no escaping it.
He had endured for so many years, and now that he had a chance for revenge, he had to uncover the truth of what happened back then!
...
After welcoming the newcomers, Yang Tao didn't head to the Terra world right away.
Instead, he planned to gather some Pokémon.
Right now, he realized that Pokémon were his greatest source of power.
