Chapter 72: Break Off The Marriage Engagement
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
In the next three days, Li Xianyu and others visited the spacious Long Manor, which was full of aesthetics of the ancient era. Magnificently carved pillars and eaves, and luscious greenery were abundant. Walking in the Long Manor was like travelling back in time to the ancient eras.
Lady Killer was right, if they did not consider that they may sleep here for a long time and have to put on diapers in reality, the virtual world was really pleasing to the eye and relaxing if it is just a holiday or a trip.
But Thunderbolt Battle Lady and Li Xianyu did not want to take his advice. This flippant fellow had already been wearing diapers, as he was trapped here one week ago.
Then again, the nanny who was responsible for changing adult diapers, had reached the peak moment of her life. The demon descendants community had many beautiful and handsome guys and girls, at least their figures were absolutely first-class.
Li Xianyu can understand Thunderbolt Battle Lady’s anxiety. Being taken care of by the babysitter to change diapers regularly, is unacceptable to any adult.
At the thought of the old aunt taking off his pants and changing diapers for him, her weary face showing an appreciative expression... Li Xianyu shuddered.
In the sunny afternoon, the four people sat in the yard to drink tea. Long Aotian who had completed his physical training, was cultivating his breathing persistently, even though he could not gather spiritual energy in his core.
Li Xianyu often thought, If he were to use this persistence in reality, then would he have to worry about not attaining the peak of his life?
“After three days of peace and silence, I think something’s about to happen, judging from how such novels go.” Li Xianyu drank a cup of tea and a bitter taste spread in his taste buds.
No one had any chance in the past three days, and they did not negotiate a better solution. They could only take one step at a time.
The main character’s gift of gab was useless here. If one talked too much, one might attract a lightning strike, which was a lesson from the past. A senior tried to deny the virtual world with his snark to undermine Long Aotian, and ended up getting hit by a lightning strike which turned him mentally retarded.
The senior succeeded in joining the vegetable team.
Thunderbolt Battle Lady looked at Lady Killer and asked, “Don’t you know the development of the plot?”
“Many colleagues have experienced and played through the previous part where Long Aotian left Wuji City, and there is not much valuable advice gleaned.” Lady Killer said, “It is that when he goes out to practice, he often encounters battles of life and death, and that is our chance.”
“It feels like a chance to die,” Li Xianyu muttered.
The door of the room opened, and a beautiful and delicate girl, Miss Linglong sashayed elegantly, and bowed to the group.
No matter how many times he looked at this girl, Li Xianyu was always impressed. But at the same time, he also found the drawbacks of 3D simulated characters, which was easy to produce aesthetic fatigue after looking at them for a long time. Over the past few days, Li Xianyu felt that San Wu and Thunderbolt Battle Lady were more tolerant to look at.
Lady Killer hurriedly said, “Miss Linglong, come sit and have some tea.”
Linglong declined politely. “I’m here to see Cousin Aotian, please go ahead.”
Lady Killer smiled and winked at Linglong, “Come on.”
Linglong frowned, her small face showing a struggling look, as she nodded with much difficulty, “Alright.”
Lady Killer snapped his fingers, and immediately three flowers appeared in front of him. “Flowers for an exquisite beauty, here you go, Miss Linglong.”
A struggling look appeared on Linglong’s face again, and under Lady Killer’s tender gaze, she blushed and replied gently, “Thank you, Young Master.”
“Where are your parents, Miss Linglong?”
Linglong’s expression turned downcast, “My parents died when I was young and I grew up in Long Manor. Cousin Aotian is the only person I can rely on.”
This has nothing to complain about. It’s the same tropes. I’m used to it. Li Xianyu thought.
“Well.” Lady Killer lamented, “I don’t know if it’s appropriate to say this.”
“Young Master Zhao, please go ahead.”
“You like Brother Aotian, and he likes you, but... It’s exciting for a relationship between close relatives or something, but genetically, it’s not desirable.” Lady Killer spoke with great emphasis, “What if you give birth to a child who is mentally retarded?”
“How insolent!” Linglong’s face turned red, and anger flashed in her eyes.
Lady Killer clasped his fists together and coaxed, “I’m joking, I’m joking. Please don’t be angry, Miss Linglong. With a beauty beside me, I could not resist myself and was too forward. A fair lady is a perfect match for a gentleman, do you know my intentions, Miss Linglong?”
He had a handsome face, a gentle smile and was very approachable, as if a spring breeze,
Linglong’s pretty face blushed as she said in a timid voice, “Young Master, please be self-respecting, I belong to Cousin.”
Li Xianyu was speechless.
Wait, the characterization is wrong. The female lead shouldn’t be like this, you have already blushed multiple times. A female lead who blushes at other men is not a good female lead.
Linglong bid farewell and left.
Lady Killer smiled and said, “Thinking that she is the harem of Long Aotian, I can’t help flirting and teasing with her.”
Li Xianyu said, “Don’t court death, senior. You even dare to flirt with Long Aotian’s woman? If you want to die, go ahead, but don’t drag us into this.”
Thunderbolt Battle Lady remarked, “Interesting, your superpower is also useful towards NPCs?”
Li Xianyu looked at her and asked curiously, “Battle Lady, what superpower?”
“Do you know why he’s called a Lady Killer?” Thunderbolt Battle Lady tucked her hair behind her ear and explained, “His superpower can cause mental interference and enforcing psychological cues. It’s silent, invisible, and intangible, which is a very powerful ability. He can unwittingly enforce psychological cues in people, but the subject himself is unaware of that, and cannot help but say and do some irrational words and deeds.”
Li Xianyu summed up, “Making someone stupid?”
Thunderbolt Battle Lady nodded. “This is a very effective ability to hit girls up. If you reinforce psychological cues such as ‘very handsome’, ‘perfect’ and ‘best spouse’ on women, women can’t help but fall in love with him.”
Is he the illegitimate son of the Jade Emperor? Apart from the son of a plane, Li Xianyu really couldn’t figure out why a small supporting character has such a power that gives him so much welfare.
“Speaking of powers, Li Xianyu, what kind of abilities do you have? Oh, have you awakened?” Lady Killer asked.
“I just awakened a few days ago, my superpower is self-healing,” Li Xianyu answered.
“Self-healing?” Lady Killer was surprised. “This ability is quite rare, we Baoze have tens of thousands of demon descendants, and there are less than 50 members with this kind of ability.”
“My flesh is just a little thicker.” Li Xianyu said modestly, “I’m currently serving as a sandbag for Battle Lady.”
“Don’t say that with a look of resentment, do you think you can defeat Ryder without my training?” Thunderbolt Battle Lady harrumphed.
“Ryder? That Ryder of the American Association of Superpowered Beings?” Lady Killer was shocked.
Thunderbolt Battle Lady nodded. “He had a little conflict with Ryder, and when we heard it, we all thought he was done for. Who thought Ryder would be hammered by this kid?”
“Oh wow, that’s not bad at all.”
“Lightning King also said he had a good talent for fighting.”
“What is the United States doing in Baoze?”
“Both parties have reached an attack and defense alliance. They are actually coming for the Great Deities Palace.”
“Oh my God, these Americans intervene when they have something to profit out of it. Do they think we are a certain oil country? If Ryder’s here, did his sister Victoria come?”
Li Xianyu finally found the opportunity and interrupted decisively. “Yes she came, she’s an incredibly beautiful Caucasian girl.”
Lady Killer was overjoyed, “I love blonde and blue-eyed Caucasian girls, I occasionally want to eat rich western food.”
Li Xianyu thought about it and glanced at San Wu, “What do you think?”
San Wu gave an honest answer, “You can’t eat western food with chopsticks.”
Thunderbolt Battle Lady and Li Xianyu were baffled.
Lady Killer was speechless.
San Wu was still annoying, but her sarcastic approach has become much sharper.
In the arched door of the courtyard, a little servant girl rushed in, her skirt fluttering. Her black hair was tied up in twin buns, and there was a panicked expression on her fair face. She walked past the group and went straight to Long Aotian’s room.
A moment later, Long Aotian came out with a gloomy face, with Linglong beside him. He strode away, taking big steps.
Li Xianyu beckoned the little servant girl over and asked, “What happened?”
The little servant girl told him truthfully, “There are a few esteemed guests that came to the manor. One of them is the Eldest Young Lady of the Dongfang family. She came to find Master Aotian to break off the marriage engagement.”
Break off the marriage engagement?!
Li Xianyu instinctively felt that they could strike. After three days of peace and calm, did they finally have a chance?
“Lead the way ahead,” he said.
