Thus, many players have watched Crane among the Clouds going through over 90 times of being killed.
There are even players who recorded it and put it on the forum with descriptions and background music:
100 Ways of Dying.
Shock! What’s the Secret behind Revenge started by an Old Friend?
A Guide of Game Guru: A Sword from the West’s Heroic Bearing!
Ah Zhao isn’t interested in abusing rookies so she goes to every corner of the game for all kinds of instances, playing with bosses and NPCs so when A Sword from the West finished his 100 revenges and puts all his spoils up the trading house, she gives him another load of good stuff.
“Here, take them.” Her eyes are glinting.
A Sword from the West looks at her as he says: “Actually, you don’t have to run all over the places. It must be tiring. I am not short of anything at the moment…”
She blurts out: “I’m not tired. It’s in fact very funny. Besides, I have to take the opportunity to get you more stuff when I’m still here…”
His expression changes and says: “What does ‘when I’m still here’ mean?”
Ah Zhao: “…Ah? I mean… well, I need to get you more good stuff before the competition to increase your opportunity of winning.”
However, he doesn’t really believe her.
He tries to hear her thought but finds he couldn’t anymore.
He’s suddenly in a state of panic.
He feels like she doesn’t mean what she has just said.
Is she going to leave?
He goes off into flights of fancy and can’t help thinking what he is going to do if she does vanish one day.
In fact, it has only been a few days since she appeared in his world.
However, these few days has made her a staple of his life who is now as important as breathing to him.
If she does disappear one day…
He refuses to think about it but he can’t help himself.
He wonders how he’ll go and look after her if she does go missing.
She is like a spirit only he can see. She’s an existence beyond the game’s recognition.
She appears in his world so suddenly which means if she does disappear one day, he won’t have a clue as to where to find her.
“Hey! A Sword from the West?”
Her voice pulls Ji Yunting out of his fancy.
Ah Zhao waves her hand in front of him and only stops when he responds.
“What were you thinking? I’ve called you several times…”
She pauses since Ji Yunting suddenly grabs her hand.
She’s startled: “What are you doing?”
Ji Yunting takes a step forward and gets closer to her.
He lowers his head and asks below his breath: “Do you like good-looking guys?”
Ah Zhao is at a loss as to his sudden change and she nods, dumbfounded.
“Well… do you think I’m handsome?” He asks again.
Ah Zhao nods again, too. The male lead is indeed a good-looking man, in every world she has been to.
