"You're saying that the Demon Forest isn't on the Rafam Continent, but on your Nine Nether Continent?"

In reality, Lin Yi was in his room, sitting on the bed with a shocked look, gazing at Aifula in disbelief:

"So that means, then."

"To find the key to open [Paradise Island], the quest location isn't on the Rafam Continent, but I have to head to your Nine Nether Continent instead."

At this thought, Lin Yi suddenly felt a kind of dizziness:

"Holy crap~"

"Isn't this the kind of plot that only exists in novels?"

It's just that in novels, the crossing happens suddenly, whereas my situation is crossing consciously.

Yet, looking at this from Lin Yi's perspective, why does it feel so fantastical?

Lin Yi couldn't help but wonder incredulously:

"Is this possible?"

At this moment, the Jade Qilin lay on the bedding, its expression unchanged, saying:

"What's impossible about this?"

"Didn't you summon me all the way from the Nine Nether Continent, my dear master?"

Hearing this, Lin Yi felt somewhat unreal:

"If I die on the Rafam Continent, I can be resurrected."

Then he thought of a very crucial question:

"But if I go to your Nine Nether Continent, and if I die, will I really just die?"

After all, on the Rafam Continent, I still have the status of a player there and don't have to worry about any death risks.

But according to what Aifula said, the Nine Nether Continent where they are is a traditional otherworldly continent, where resurrection is a legendary thing.

It's something that doesn't exist in reality.

What Lin Yi was worried about was going there and getting killed.

Would I be resurrected on the Rafam Continent, or would I really die in that world?

Knowing that in the Nine Nether Continent, there exists Divine Level and even higher entities.

After inlaying the Brilliant Gem onto Lin Yi's equipment, his current Level is Lv68.

This Level in the Nine Nether Continent is equivalent to a late-stage Sixth Transformation Magic Emperor.

I can't say it's powerful, just average or mid-level strength at best.

However, considering Lin Yi's actual combat ability, even facing a Seventh Transformation Saint Level opponent, Lin Yi could actually put up a fight.

As for Lv80 Demigod Level, that's out of the question.

Demigod Level entities have the Demigod Body; such an existence is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

It's not something someone at Lin Yi's level can challenge.

Back to the point.

After coming out of the game, perhaps because of that gem, Lin Yi didn't feel sleepy at all now.

Unable to sleep, Lin Yi's mind churned out thoughts.

Next up, it's obvious that the goal is to find the key to open [Golden Island].

The importance of [Golden Island] is self-explanatory now.

Currently, other than an official announcement, there's absolutely no information or records on [Golden Island].

Clearly, this new map requires completing this task to be unlocked.

Lin Yi got up from the bed and walked over to the window sill.

Gazing at the bright moonlight outside, his mind was pondering whether he could complete this task.

The main issue is that the information provided by the Guardian was simply too little.

Recalling the Guardian's expression and tone of voice back then, it was just advice:

"Don't let the people there recognize that you're from the Rafam Continent."

This puzzled Lin Yi:

Could it be that people over there know about the existence of the Rafam Continent?

At this moment, the Jade Qilin suddenly jumped onto Lin Yi's shoulder, saying:

"Actually, the Nine Nether Continent isn't as scary as you imagine."

"Although there, too, people have good and evil."

"But overall, as long as you don't cause trouble, it's fairly safe."

The Jade Qilin seemed to know exactly what Lin Yi was worried about, looking at him with determination:

"Once we get there, I'll protect you."

That moment, Aifula also flew over, saying:

"And me as well."

Seeing this, Lin Yi couldn't help but smile:

"Alright then."

"Going there will just be like 'traveling'."

But probably only Lin Yi is capable of cross-world travel like this.

Honestly.

Deep inside, Lin Yi was still filled with curiosity about that so-called Nine Nether Continent.

He wondered what differences that otherworld had compared to the Rafam Continent.

It was already 4 AM, and Lin Yi noticed that lights were on in another villa.

It was apparent that the aunt had gotten up to prepare breakfast for everyone.

Since Lin Yi had nothing else to do:

"Let's go and help them make breakfast."

With that, he headed straight out the door.

When Lin Yi reached the entrance of the villa, he heard the faint sound of machines operating and the cooking aunt's voice:

"Jiaying, you really work hard, waking up so early every day to help me."

"I could do this by myself, you know. Didn't I hear you say you were going out with that Xiaohua today?"

"Go back and rest a little more, leave this to me."

When Lin Yi opened the door and walked in, he saw Jiang Jiaying at the workbench, wrapping wontons while smiling:

"Nothing to worry about, Aunt Liu."

"You're up just as early, aren't you?"

"There's so much to do, I'll help you make it quicker."

Auntie chuckled upon hearing this and said:

"This is my job, silly child."

"Your boss spent so much money hiring me; if I can't handle these small tasks well, I wouldn't deserve the trust of this young boss."

At that moment, Jiang Jiaying suddenly asked:

"Auntie, you've been doing this for so many years, how does our boss compare to the ones you've worked for before?"

Upon hearing this, the fifty-something auntie sighed deeply:

"I've been fussing around my whole life, not knowing how much luck I've accumulated to meet such a boss!"

"Not only is the salary high and the benefits great, but the work is also easy."

"Have you seen any boss willing to give insurance and contributions to a dishwashing and cooking auntie?"

Jiang Jiaying chuckled:

"That's called five insurances and one fund."

"Yes, yes, exactly that!"

Perhaps Auntie had kept some words suppressed for many years.

Speaking them now was like opening up a chatterbox, she continued:

"Had I not met him, I would still be worrying about my son's college tuition."

"Xiao Ying, you wouldn't know."

"My eldest son got married recently."

"But my eldest daughter-in-law's family insisted on having a house in Binhai City."

"Given our family's situation, how could we afford a house in this big city?"

"When the young boss found out, he immediately lent me two million to make up the down payment, and didn't even ask for an IOU."

When she said this, Auntie's weather-worn face showed a heartfelt smile:

"Since Lin the boss trusts me so much."

"I plan for the rest of my life, as long as I'm able, to take good care of Lin the boss and his family."

"Where could you find such a good person in this world!"

"Lin the boss deserves to be wealthy."

Hearing all this made Lin Yi feel a bit embarrassed, his ears turning red.

Just when the conversation was at its peak, Lin Yi pushed the door open and entered saying:

"Hey, what's going on, so lively here."

Jiang Jiaying looked up and was surprised to see Lin Yi, saying:

"Brother Lin Yi, why are you here so early today!"

Aunt Liu, who was grinding soybean milk, quickly turned off the machine, wiped her hands, and hurriedly went up to greet Lin Yi, saying:

"Boss Lin, what brings you here."

And she said with an awkward face:

"Look at this."

"The ingredients have just been put in, let me know what you'd like, and I'll make it for you now."

Seeing Auntie's expression, Lin Yi felt both pity and helplessness, saying:

"Auntie, I've said many times."

"When you see me, don't be so restrained. We are all family, no need to be so formal."

After saying this, Lin Yi rolled up his sleeves and said:

"I couldn't sleep, so I came over to see if I could be of any help."

Auntie was startled and said:

"How can this be."

At this point, Jiang Jiaying was much more natural, saying to Lin Yi:

"Brother Lin Yi, can you wrap dumplings?"

Lin Yi's eyes lit up:

"I can do that." 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

At this time, Jade Qilin and Aifula also joined in:

"We'll help too."

"And me."

Auntie was helpless at the sight:

"Boss, you..."

Lin Yi casually waved his hand and said:

"You keep busy with yours, don't mind me."

As for Jade Qilin and Aifula, seeing them was already commonplace for Auntie.

After all, confidentiality agreements were signed before entering.

She had long since been transformed from initial shock to today's accustomed familiarity, even able to bond with them.

Just as Lin Yi was about to sit down, Jiang Jaaying pulled Lin Yi up saying:

"Brother Lin Yi, wait a moment, wash your hands first."

"And you Ian, Aifula, go wash your hands too."

Jade Qilin couldn't help but tease Aifula's palm-sized figure:

"She might as well take a bath, haha."

"Smelly Qilin, what are you saying."

"What! I am the noble King of Qilin, where am I smelly?"

"Move aside, I'm washing first."

"I got here first, I wash first."

Seeing those two about to fight by the sink, Lin Yi turned on another faucet and said:

"What are you fighting for? There's another one here."
