Lin Mao took a moment to stretch his back, feeling the strain in his hands from the continuous writing.
"Ah..." he sighed. "Not used to this kind of work, but it turned out better than I expected."
He glanced at the pile of pages he had written and couldn't help but feel a small sense of accomplishment. He had been immersed in the story for the past six hours, and his mind was still racing with ideas.
"And to think, I had a continuous boner for the past two hours while writing this... definitely didn't see that coming."
He gathered the pages and stacked them accordingly.
"This shit is going to be like showing an airplane to a medieval peasant. They will have no idea what hit them. Hahahahaha," he said, his grin widening.
"I'm about to change the game,"
However, his excitement dimmed as he glanced at his persistent boner.
"I have to do something about this before it puts me in a worse position."
He adjusted his robes awkwardly, trying to calm himself. "Writing like this might be dangerous for my health," he added with a smirk.
"First erotica, then… who knows? Maybe I will revolutionize this whole sect one horny scroll at a time."
The time slipped by, and soon night had fallen. Lin Mao lit the candles in his room, lost in his thought.
Since the moment he had entered this world, he felt an overwhelming sense of calmness and satisfaction.
Was it because of the escape from the reality of his past life? Or perhaps the pure thrill of experiencing something that, until now, had existed only in the novels.
He stood up and stretched. "Whatever it may be, this is my new reality."

Lin Mao made his way down the stairs to the lowest floor of the pavilion.
"According to Ti Xhin, this floor serves food," he muttered to himself.
"Wonder what the food's like here. Hope it's not too different from Earth."
As he walked, he spotted Ti Xhin. He grinned and approached him. "Yo, sup bro, you going to eat?"
Ti Xhin was not impressed and shot him a sharp look. "Lin Mao, mind your manners. You are a scholar, not a bandit. Talk properly."
Lin Mao shrugged and waved his hand dismissively. "Chill, bro. Why you so mad?"
Ti Xhin glared at him even harder, and Lin Mao instinctively flinched.
"Senior Brother, are you going to eat?" Lin Mao he asked with a slight bow.
Ti Xhin finally smiled and nodded. "Yes, let's go."
Lin Mao quietly followed behind him. Ti Xhin's not a bad guy. He might have a tough exterior, but deep down, he is caring, typical tsundere.
They eventually reached the lowest floor, and Lin Mao was struck by the atmosphere. The entire space was glowing in the warm glow of lanterns and lamps, making the sight almost dreamlike.
They took a seat at one of the wooden tables. It's like a canteen back on Earth, but with a medieval twist to it.
Ti Xhin noticed Lin Mao glancing around, taking in the atmosphere like a young child, and a small smile formed on his lips.
"Did this bring back any memories?"
Lin Mao paused for a moment, then shook his head. "No, but everything here feels like a dream."
Ti Xhin nodded with pride smile. "Right. This is the center pavilion of the Sky Moon Sect. Of course, it feels dreamlike."
The hall around them was lively with the chatter of the disciples and the delicious scents of the meals that drifted from the kitchen.
As Lin Mao's gaze wandered across the hall, it froze when it landed on a heaven-defying jade beauty. Her presence was like a shiny pokemon in the group of normal one, drawing all attention effortlessly.
Her beauty rivaled even that of Chu Ha, leaving Lin Mao momentarily breathless.
She wore a striking green hanfu that flowed gracefully around her as if it were a part of her body. Her brown hair swayed gently, moving in harmony with her every step.
The combination was mesmerizing, to the point where she could be easily hailed as one of those fairy immortals from xianxia novels, for whom many would wage war.
Two young girls were following gracefully behind her. Back on Earth, either one of them would have been hailed as a goddess. Yet, standing beside the jade beauty, they seemed basic as hell.
"Damn... what kind of world is this where goddesses walk around like it's nothing?"
His focus was broken when Ti Xhin, sitting across from him laughed.
"Do you like her?" he asked.
Without hesitation, Lin Mao nodded like his life depended on it.
"Yes! Yes! Can you set me up with her? Please, bro! Help a brother out."
Ti Xhin laughed even harder this time, clutching his stomach as tears welled in his eyes.
"What are you laughing for?" Lin Mao asked, frustrated by the sudden tease.
Ti Xhin finally wiped away his tears and calmed himself. "That's the girl who rejected you, Lin Mao."
