Gu Family, residential district. A cluster of four tall buildings formed the shape of the character for "tool", with an aerial corridor traversing the center.
At this moment, in a duplex apartment, one of the widowed swordmasters of the Gu Family—Gu Yue Ming, just took off her office lady outfit and enjoyed a nice bath, now donning a bathrobe as she stepped out, lying on the sumptuously elastic sofa.
While drying her wet hair, she touched her ring and activated the leveling-up network.
"Widowed sword servant" was an in-house joke within the Gu Family, referring to the servants of sword masters who had died, with a similar term for widowed sword masters.
The Gu Family ancestral teachings did not support dating, so family members who were four generations removed would be paired according to a drawing of lots—a "Martial Artist" sword master and a "Doctor" sword servant. Without significant objections from either party, they would typically marry by default to continue the lineage.
