Li Xiaonan stared blankly at the woman in front of him, a silly grin plastered on his face.
"What's wrong with you?" Yuan Xian'er glanced at Li Xiaonan and waved her hand in front of him. When she saw he didn't respond, a smile crept onto her lips as she took his hand and said, "How about I take you for a stroll?"
No! Li Xiaonan struggled internally. Who wants to stroll with you, you little thief? I want to walk with that beautiful girl from earlier!
Perhaps the other Li Xiaonan inside him heard his thoughts, as he cheerfully followed Yuan Xian'er toward East Street.
Damn it! Are you doing this on purpose? It's just your body I'm using; why do you have to oppose me at every turn?
"This place has some really delicious food; it's on me!" Yuan Xian'er pulled Li Xiaonan's hand and led him into a restaurant called Fuxian Pavilion on East Street.
Fuxian Pavilion was quite famous on Starry Illusion Avenue, known as a place for Cultivators to dine and rest. Generally, only members of prestigious Orthodox Sects or wealthy young Cultivators frequented this establishment, as the prices were exorbitant—just a cup of tea could cost several Medium-Grade Spirit Stones.
Li Xiaonan knew he was in trouble; this little thief was definitely here to steal something. Hey! Li Xiaonan, did you hear that? Don't go in there! Hey!
With a silly grin still on his face, Li Xiaonan followed Yuan Xian'er up to the second floor.
"Waiter, bring me a pot of the finest Azure Snail Spring. And two plates of Spiritual Fruit."
Once the tea and Spiritual Fruits were served, Li Xiaonan drooled as he looked at them. Yuan Xian'er laughed and said, "Have you really turned into a fool? Go ahead and eat!"
Li Xiaonan nodded eagerly, grabbing a bright red fruit from the plate and stuffing it into his mouth with an expression of pure bliss.
Meanwhile, the other Li Xiaonan in his Dantian grimaced. Sigh... You fool, if you get into trouble, don’t come looking for me... He helplessly withdrew his consciousness from the surface of his body and focused on cultivating the Martial Soul Technique. If he could make his Yuan Ying as tough as his body, wouldn’t that be impressive? He resolved not to concern himself with the foolish antics of Li Xiaonan anymore. It seemed this guy was still upset about him taking over his body, so he was deliberately opposing him at every turn.
"Is that enough? If not, I can order more."
"Li Xiaonan" chuckled foolishly and nodded.
Yuan Xian'er curled her lips into a smug smile, thinking to herself: I don't care if you're really foolish or just pretending! A woman who doesn't take revenge is not a woman at all. Last time you embarrassed me, just wait and see how I make you suffer!
Yuan Xian'er stood up and walked towards the window, "accidentally" bumping into several Cultivators who were resting along the way. She smiled as she returned to her seat, her hand brushing over the Soul Ring on Li Xiaonan's left hand. Her brow furrowed, and she quickly withdrew her hand, thinking: This Storage Ring is quite special! Never mind, there's still another one. Huh? It even has Spiritual Energy; this person is full of treasures!
Yuan Xian'er touched the Heavenly Jade Ring on Li Xiaonan's hand, smiled slightly, and then sat alone at a table across from him. She glanced at Li Xiaonan, who was still munching on a Spiritual Fruit, pouted her lips, slammed the table, and shouted, "Ah! Where did my spirit stones go?"
"Miss, what's wrong? Is it not enough to pay for the tea? I wonder if I have the fortune to... huh? Where are my spirit stones?"
"My spirit stones are missing too!"
The quiet loft suddenly erupted into chaos as everyone checked their Storage Artifacts with puzzled expressions, except for the fool "Li Xiaonan," who continued to munch on his Spiritual Fruit without realizing the change in atmosphere around him.
The Cultivators in the loft exchanged glances until they finally focused on one person—none other than "Li Xiaonan."
"It must be this kid!" one person exclaimed.
The others echoed in agreement and gradually surrounded "Li Xiaonan."
Li Xiaonan looked up, grinning foolishly with an oblivious expression.
Beside him, Yuan Xian'er crossed her arms and smiled at "Li Xiaonan."
"Still smiling! Brothers, get him!" The crowd surged forward.
Ten minutes later, "Li Xiaonan" crawled out from beneath the crowd with a pained expression.
Seeing his state, the crowd dispersed. He looked up to see Yuan Xian'er still smiling at him. She frowned slightly, sighed, and pulled him up from the ground. "Let's go; your clothes are dirty. I'll take you to buy new ones."
The moment Yuan Xian'er shifted her gaze, a glimmer of light flashed in Li Xiaonan's eyes.
Yes, he was back.
Hmph! Only after being bullied did they come looking for me! Sigh, in the end, it’s still my fault…
Li Xiaonan once again took control of his body. The first thing he did was transfer all the "stolen goods" from the Heavenly Jade Ring to the Soul Ring. Since he had to take the blame, he would do it thoroughly.
As soon as his consciousness entered the Heavenly Jade Ring, he was taken aback. How many spirit stones had this girl stolen? They were piled up like a mountain! No wonder those guys were so heavy-handed earlier. He was still aching all over, but fortunately, she targeted rich second-generation heirs who weren’t short on money. Moreover, they had no solid evidence against him; in the end, they could only let him go.
Just as he was about to move the spirit stones, he spotted a familiar figure sprawled atop the pile of stones, wearing a silly grin.
"Little Jin?" He had completely forgotten about this little rascal after returning, and now this kid had been locked up in the Heavenly Jade Ring all this time. He scanned the Heavenly Jade Ring and found the Jade Eye Tablet that recorded the Swallowing Heaven Avenue. He tossed it directly to Chen Yaojin.
Chen Yaojin was stunned. He rubbed his eyes; he had just seen his boss's face appear in the sky, and then suddenly, everything beneath him vanished. In an instant, a jade cylindrical object appeared in his hand. He scratched his head; although he hadn’t cultivated before, he had seen cultivators and quickly guessed Li Xiaonan's intention. He began to study it carefully.
Li Xiaonan quickly made plans. The Seven-Level Pagoda needed to be reforged; there were many Demon Soldiers and Demon Generals inside that required management. Being lazy by nature, it was only fitting to assign such tasks to his underlings. Moreover, Chen Yaojin, being a Ghost Body, couldn’t appear during the day anyway. So he decided to toss him into the Seven-Level Pagoda to give him some purpose.
Once he sorted everything out, Yuan Xian'er led him to a clothing store. The array of silks and satins dazzled the eye. Yuan Xian'er picked out a yellow dress adorned with feathers and pearls; it was quite beautiful.
Li Xiaonan pouted. Seriously? Is this for you or for me? He looked up just in time to spot a colorful robe and a pure white silk that added liveliness to the scene. Hmm, it was time to buy something for Lu Ni Chang. Just as he raised his hand, his consciousness was pulled back into Yuan Ying.
He fumed inwardly: What are you doing!
"Li Xiaonan," grinning foolishly as he stroked a red leather skirt.
"Get out of here! Where did this poor beggar come from?" The shopkeeper saw him in tattered clothes with messy hair touching their garments and grabbed a feather duster to swat at him.
Li Xiaonan winced in pain but still refused to let go.
"Dammit! As if I'm a vegetarian! Just watch me beat you!" The Shopkeeper exclaimed, raising the feather duster once more.
Yuan Xian'er swayed slightly, grasping the feather duster with one hand. She turned to Li Xiaonan and said, "Do you think this looks good on me? Then I'll take it. Boss, wrap it up for me, and I want that goose-yellow dress and that black long shirt too." After speaking, she touched his Heavenly Jade Ring, her brow furrowing slightly. Inner Thoughts: Huh? Where did it go?
At the Dantian, Yuan Ying was laughing heartily. You little scheming thief, you've come to bully me now; I'll make you understand what it means to lose both the lady and the soldiers.
Yuan Xian'er took out some silver coins from her waist and tossed the black long shirt to Li Xiaonan. However, he grabbed the red dress instead and stuffed it directly into his Soul Ring, returning the black long shirt to Yuan Xian'er.
Both Yuan Xian'er and Li Xiaonan were taken aback. Yuan Ying's Inner Thoughts: What is this kid up to? Is he a cross-dresser? If you dare wear women's clothes, I'll beat you to death!
Yuan Xian'er frowned and calmly said, "Put it on." She threw the black long shirt back at Li Xiaonan.
Li Xiaonan chuckled and obediently started putting it on. Unfortunately, with his intelligence... he slowly pulled the pants over his head, unable to get his head out. He stumbled and tripped over the threshold, falling straight out of the shop.
Seeing this, Yuan Xian'er covered her mouth and laughed. This guy really is something; one moment he's fine, the next he's foolish. Perhaps I can show him to my master. That ring on his hand is truly magical; it must be a rare treasure!
Li Xiaonan saw himself wriggling on the ground like a silkworm pupa and couldn't bear to watch any longer. He covered Yuan Ying's eyes with his hand, but unfortunately, he couldn't block it; his divine sense was broadcasting in every direction without any blind spots!
Yuan Xian'er shook her head, pulled Li Xiaonan up, and helped him change clothes. Li Xiaonan laughed even more joyfully, his eyes squinting into slits.
Meanwhile, at another location in Xiao Hai City, an esteemed guest was about to arrive.
"What! You mean Big Brother is coming?" Melt exclaimed in surprise.
The Ice Maiden withdrew her hand from the crystal ball with a sigh. "Yes, he will arrive in Xiao Hai City soon. It seems he's coming for that kid. Melt, you hold Big Brother off; I need to find that kid. Once Big Brother arrives, all our plans will go down the drain."
Melt nodded as the Ice Maiden instantly teleported away. She had been keeping a close watch on Li Xiaonan's movements; in fact, the entire Xiao Hai City was under her control.
"You stay here; I'll be back shortly. Don't go anywhere, okay?" The newly dressed Li Xiaonan grinned foolishly and nodded before plopping down on the steps by the street.
This is South Street in Xiao Hai City, the slum of Xiao Hai City. No matter how prosperous a city may be, there is always a place where sunlight cannot reach, and South Street is such a place, home to all the beggars, thugs, and rogues in Xiao Hai City.
"Hey! That kid's clothes look pretty good!"
"Yeah! I want the clothes; you can have the pants!"
"Alright! Go!"
Li Xiaonan was sitting there in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking. Perhaps with his limited brain capacity, he couldn't think of anything at all.
Suddenly, two people rushed out from the end of the street and tackled him without a word, tearing at his clothes. Li Xiaonan was frightened and couldn't utter a complete sentence, mumbling incoherently until he realized his clothes and pants had been stripped off. Only then did he react and call for help from another person within his body.
Damn it! Next time, call me out earlier. My clothes have been stolen, and they've run off without a trace. Where am I supposed to chase them?
Li Xiaonan finally understood that this fool was indeed very foolish and weak, completely lacking any sense of resistance. However, as the original owner of this body, he had a significant advantage in using it. This was something Li Xiaonan could never compete with.
"Little brother, what a coincidence! We meet again. Oh? Where are your clothes?" A water-blue veil concealed the Ice Maiden's delicate features, but her long, watery eyes still captivated Li Xiaonan's heart.
I must be incredibly lucky to see this beautiful sister again!
