What To Do If The Heroine Escapes From The Book

Today, the stir-fried meat that Qiu Wuji worked hard to bargain for was not enjoyed by Chu Ge.

Because after he drank that cup of tea, he entered a deep meditation…

Qiu Wuji sulkily ate alone, stuffing the remaining dishes into the refrigerator. She regretted letting him drink that tea before the meal. She shouldn’t have offered this treasure.

She should have thought about it earlier. Chu Ge wasn’t like her, a cultivator who bathed in spiritual energy long-term. It could be said that he was experiencing a long-awaited rainfall after a prolonged drought. When suddenly exposed to the cleansing power of spiritual energy, it was like taking a breath of fresh air after being in a sealed environment for a long time. The intoxicating feeling of oxygen at that moment was perfectly normal.

He would get used to it in the future. After all, the spiritual energy carried by the purple clay teapot was still diluted. Once he got used to it, it would just be beneficial drinking water.

However, this incident did have significant implications. Perhaps he would have a breakthrough when he woke up from this deep meditation, and maybe he could also break through the bottleneck of his Golden Bell Shield in one go.

By the way, what was the bottleneck for his Golden Bell Shield? It seemed like he had made some changes to the cultivation technique…

Why did he make unnecessary changes!

Qiu Wuji sighed and ultimately didn’t disturb Chu Ge. After thinking for a while, his sudden entry into deep meditation caught her off guard, and she couldn’t judge how long it would last. So she sent a notification in the group chat and pinned it to the book review section: “Chu Da (Brother Chu) isn’t feeling well today. The updates will be the ones from this morning, and that’s it.”

A truly responsible assistant. She would have to give him a raise later!

The group members reacted with surprise: “Ah, Brother Chu has been on fire for almost two months. Could it be that he’s exhausted?”

“Then he should rest well. There’s no rush for one or two days.”

“What illness is he having? A cold?”

Qiu Wuji felt a warm feeling in her heart. Despite the fact that these people cursed Chu Ge as a short and narrow-minded male author every day, they genuinely cared about him when something happened. Perhaps it was also due to the trust Chu Ge had built up. There weren’t many diligent writers like him.

“It’s nothing, just a slight cold.” Qiu Wuji began to lie on his behalf. “He needs some rest, and most likely he’ll be fine tomorrow.”

“Oh, that’s good… Wait a minute!”

A group member noticed a blind spot. “Master Qiu! My Qiu Qiu! Are you really living together with Brother Chu?!”

Qiu Wuji panicked, “What? Are you trying to get banned again?”

The group of fans pointed out, “Otherwise, how would you know so much about Brother Chu’s situation? It’s not just about knowing he’s sick in the first place. You know what illness he has, how severe it is, and when he’ll recover!”

“Tch, what do you think I am?” Qiu Wuji sent a contemptuous expression. “Now you all know, right?”

Group member: “?”

“The author just had a private chat with me, that’s all. Is it so hard to imagine such a simple thing?”

“We still feel something’s not right… Why didn’t he just say it in the group directly? Why did he chat with you privately and ask you to relay the message?”

Qiu Wuji bit her lip, typing with increased force: “Do you know that he wanted to pursue me from day one!”

The group fell silent for a moment and then rebellion began: “Who does he think he is? Just because he’s the author, does that mean he can reserve Qiu Qiu?”

“Let’s rebel! Let’s rebel! I’m rebelling!”

Qiu Wuji activated group-wide mute.

The world fell silent.

Qiu Wuji breathed a sigh of relief, having successfully bluffed her way through… It’s good that she wasn’t caught in a confirmed relationship with Chu Ge.

Her face was still a bit hot. She actually said the words “he wanted to pursue me” out loud…

Maybe muting the entire group wasn’t a good idea. It might have a negative impact on him… Qiu Wuji secretly glanced and then quietly lifted the mute. And fearing a rebellion from the group, she directly closed the app without looking.

She also had things to do now. She couldn’t be bothered with their nonsense.

Qiu Wuji opened her document and continued writing her autobiography, “The Autobiography of Qiu Wuji.”

This autobiography was much more comfortable than Chu Ge’s novel. There was no pressure to update every day. She could write as much as she wanted. Qiu Wuji leisurely brewed herself a cup of spiritual energy tea and grabbed some milk candy, planning to write a thousand words a day.

But just as she had written a few lines and was getting into the flow, Qiu Wuji’s gaze sharpened, and her heart skipped a beat.

Did something happen with the original body?

I was taking a bath! Who’s peeking!

…

The details of Chu Ge’s current meditation were somewhat secretive.

Since receiving nourishment from spiritual energy, his cultivation soared rapidly, and Chu Ge instinctively felt that breaking through would be a matter of moments.

But then he encountered a peculiar bottleneck.

His foundational technique was the Golden Bell Shield, and the flow of Qi followed the route of the Golden Bell Shield. However, at this moment, even the Golden Bell Shield had reached a bottleneck and because of his adjustment about the ‘invincible golden spear’, it required refinement.

How does one refine it? Stab it with a durian fruit?

Or get beaten up? Definitely not getting beaten up.

As a result, his Qi went berserk, surging wildly through his meridians and acupoints, causing Chu Ge to become congested, in pain, and swollen.

It felt like this barrier was simply impassable…

During this passive meditation, his consciousness was hazy, with only the circulation of Qi and nothing else. Not to mention stopping it, he didn’t even think of the idea of stopping. Instead, he subconsciously searched for a solution.

Chu Ge’s first instinct was to think of Qiu Wuji.

If he could be close to her, it would surely alleviate… and if they could… well, it might even lead to a breakthrough in various ways…

However, Qiu Wuji wasn’t by his side, and in his hazy consciousness, he couldn’t even imagine what Qiu Wuji looked like.

Lost in a foggy state of mind, he seemed to see the scene he had observed while writing just now: Chu Tiange was talking to someone and was about to enter a secret place.

Chu Ge felt disdain in his heart. What are you men doing? Where’s my Qiu Qiu? Oh, right, Qiu Qiu exists in this world too!

With a thought, the scene changed as if he had directly locked onto Qiu Wuji’s location. His gaze reached the mountains of Cloud Horizon, behind the main peak of Qiu Wuji’s residence, a serene courtyard with a pool formed by a murmuring stream.

Amidst the mist and clouds, the sound of rushing water could be heard faintly, and a hint of snowy whiteness was visible.

Is Qiu Wuji taking a bath?

Chu Ge’s eyes lit up.

“Splash!” A sound of water echoed in the mountains as the original body of Qiu Wuji submerged in the water, raising her head with an angry gaze, searching for the source of the voyeurism.

Then, she seemed to see the excited face of Chu Ge faintly appearing in the void.

Qiu Wuji: “?”

The pervert is actually you?

Chu Ge was very excited, but Qiu Wuji didn’t react immediately. Seeing him here clearly made her panic. Not only that, she was in the water without any cover, unable to block the gaze of the heavens. Even her protective techniques were useless. The heavens saw everything!

You’re still looking! Still looking?

Qiu Wuji’s head was steaming with anger, and her original body flew up and stabbed a sword towards the sky.

Passed through, without causing any harm.

Moreover, that figure was even closer, as if not only wanting to look but also wanting to get close. The expression was just like the drooling emoticons those fools send in QQ group chats.

“Do you really think I can’t deal with you, you pervert!” Qiu Wuji sneered and stopped using her protective techniques altogether.

“Bang!” In the rented room, Qiu Wuji forcefully kicked open Chu Ge’s door, grabbed him, who was meditating, and delivered a punch to his face. “Wake up, you pervert!”

A faint golden light shimmered, and Chu Ge’s head tilted, still wearing a smiling face as if he was drooling, but he didn’t wake up.

Seemingly sensing Qiu Wuji’s touch, he unconsciously embraced her and murmured, “Qiu Qiu~ My Qiu Qiu~”

Qiu Wuji’s seven apertures were emitting smoke.

They were just fooling around in the group, and he took it seriously!

She grabbed the groping hand that came over and viciously performed a shoulder throw, “Die!”

“Thud!” Chu Ge heavily fell to the ground, hitting a certain spot on the floor, which immediately woke him up from the pain. He curled up on the ground like a shrimp.

In the world of the book, the heavenly dao transformed into a phantom, with its hands clasped in front of Qiu Wuji.

Qiu Wuji raised her arched brow, covered her chest with her left hand, and slapped the phantom with her right hand, dispersing it into smoke and dissolving it into nothingness.

Chu Ge opened his eyes while curled up on the floor.

The golden light solidified, and the breakthrough was completed. The Golden Bell Shield was perfected.

Cautiously looking up at Qiu Wuji, who was glaring at him with anger, Chu Ge understood what had happened. He carefully smiled and said, “Um… I had a breakthrough and need energy replenishment. I’m a bit hungry.”

A women’s slipper sole enlarged in front of him, “Go to hell, Chu Ge!”
