Chapter 51: Seeing Cai Yutong and Gao Huan Again

The next day.

After breakfast, Li Youyi hid alone in his room, counting the silver coins from looting the corpses and those sent by the Long Lin Bang, filling a box to the brim.

Zhao Meng had been practicing the breathing technique from last night until now.

Every time, it was his junior brother who stood in the front, forced to kill and fight, while he, as the senior brother, could only hide in the back. Originally, it was the master who told him to take care of his junior brother, but now it had become the junior brother taking care of him.

He naturally had to work twice as hard.

More importantly, the current peace was only temporary, not stable.

He had to cultivate to be stronger so that the risk of exposing his true skills would be smaller.

"It turns out ten thousand silver coins are so many; it seems necessary to exchange them all for Gushing Spring coins. One thousand Gushing Spring coins would be much easier to carry and hide."

Just as Li Youyi was thinking this in his heart, Old Liu's voice came from outside: "Little Brother Li, come out quickly, someone is visiting... I can't understand what they are saying..."

Li Youyi closed the money box, put it into the Evil Camel Bell, opened the door, and stepped into the front courtyard.

Old Liu and Old Guan were repairing the courtyard wall. Outside the main gate stood a well-dressed noble lady in her fifties and three young and beautiful women.

The three women were all only sixteen or seventeen years old, wearing elegant skirts, some fresh and comfortable, some with lively eyes, some holding fans to cover their faces, looking slightly shy.

After some questioning, Li Youyi learned that they were actually the "mother" and the three most popular "daughters" of the Baoyue Building next door.

They came to visit to send housewarming gifts, hoping to be taken care of in the future.

As for whether this "taking care of" meant taking care of their business or helping out when there was trouble at the Baoyue Building, Li Youyi did not pursue the question. He originally wanted to refuse, but after the three "daughters" put down the gifts, they left with the "mother" without staying long.

After they walked a few dozen paces, they dropped their reserve and started chattering and discussing.

"Seeing him kill in the street from afar last night, I was a bit afraid when I came to visit today, but I didn't expect him to blush just now, looking so embarrassed, hehe."

"Others have skills, and they killed the bad guys of the Long Lin Bang. I didn't expect him to be so young, and he is quite handsome, but it's a pity he is not a pure immortal body."

"Do you think he has never slept with a woman? He looks like a fledgling."

Li Youyi naturally took their discussion into his ears, showing a bitter smile, and felt a sense of helplessness in his heart.

If he had a choice, he wouldn't want to kill; that feeling was not good.

Old Liu and Old Guan looked at the graceful backs of the women from the Baoyue Building as they left, leaned over to Li Youyi's side, their eyes shining.

Old Liu sighed: "The quality of the brothels in this world is really high; there is no feeling of vulgarity at all. Brother Li, you showed great power last night and can be considered famous in this district. Did they say anything like you can visit for free?"

"If you two want to have some fun, you can apply to me for silver coins. Just don't report my name and then run up a tab, or eat a free meal; I can't afford to lose that face," Li Youyi joked.

Everyone has desires; he could understand.

In this world, he had no foundation, and toward enemies, he had to be cold. But toward the friends and companions around him, he was twelve points sincere. Since Old Liu and Old Guan had always been helping with the hard and tiring work, he would never leave them behind.

"Haha, Brother Li is righteous!"

Qin Ke, who was washing bloodstains in the distance, snorted coldly, having a big opinion of the three people laughing loudly over there.

The sound of a carriage came and stopped outside the main gate of the residence.

The three immediately stopped laughing and looked over.

The one driving the carriage was actually an acquaintance, the old servant Li Qi who followed by Cangli's side.

Li Qi put down the horsewhip and was the first to get off the carriage, his gaze falling on Li Youyi, no longer with the previous contempt, but instead carrying a trace of respect.

Li Ling, in a white silk dress, was like a blooming begonia flower, lifting the carriage curtain.

She had a peerless appearance that did not lose to a pure immortal body woman, her skin glowing white, her waist slender with jade belts, her ornaments gorgeous, and her red lips crystal clear like gems. After getting off the carriage, she walked over with a smile: "I heard in the city that someone used their own strength to suppress the Long Lin Bang last night, killing until blood was flowing in the street. I originally wanted to rush over overnight, but the city gates were closed... The scene of a beauty saving a hero ultimately couldn't be performed."

She walked to the opposite side of Li Youyi, stopping only when she was one step away.

She sized him up with apricot eyes, gentle and concerned: "How is it, you brute, are you injured?"

Li Youyi smelled the elegant fragrance on her body and really couldn't set up defenses against her like this, so he smiled and shook his head: "Just a few minor injuries."

Li Ling didn't quite believe it, pinched his arm, and hammered his chest, confirming that it was very solid and that he was really not seriously injured before she felt relieved, her eyes filled with curious brilliance: "How did you do it? I heard that the seven-spring magic martial arts experts and Insect Controllers on the other side were all dispatched, and the gang leader and deputy gang leader of the Long Lin Bang are both in the Five Seas Realm."

"What you heard must have been exaggerated!"

Li Youyi added: "It was Old Zhao who reported the Young Clan Leader's name, and the Long Lin Bang retreated. How could I have such great ability?"

"Kang Shaomin of the City Defense Battalion did indeed go to find my brother overnight last night."

Li Ling was half-believing and half-doubting, and added: "Forget it, you are too good at hiding things; this young lady won't ask. Eh, the gifts on the ground, such a heavy smell of powder, and from more than one woman. Where did these demons come from?"

Li Youyi looked toward the Baoyue Building across the street.

Li Ling immediately showed annoyance: "Li Qi, send someone to flatten that brothel for me."

Li Qi showed a bitter face: "That is the property of the Yang tribe."

"Isn't that just right? Yang Qingxi went to find my brother this morning to apologize and plead for the Long Lin Bang; this brothel is the price she has to pay," Li Ling said.

Li Youyi said hurriedly: "Fourth Miss Li, don't make things difficult for a few women; they are also miserable people. Why don't you go and flatten the Long Lin Bang?"

Li Ling called out hurriedly: "Gao Huan, Yutong, come quickly and see your companion; he is now on intimate terms with a group of brothel women. Did he do this before?"

There was more than one carriage parked outside; it was a motorcade.

Gao Huan and Cai Yutong walked into the residence gate one after another, followed by many servants and maids of the Cangli tribe.

Seeing the two, Li Youyi was in a great mood and hugged Gao Huan.

Qin Ke also surrounded them, wiping her tears constantly, having a deep moving emotion of meeting an old friend in a foreign land.

Cai Yutong wore a white veil on her face and was dressed in the complicated skirt of this world. Even without seeing her peerless face of a pure immortal body, just by her tall and outstanding figure and cold temperament, she made people feel like a fairy descending to earth.

She was originally a character who was indifferent to everything, but at this moment, her eyes were also filled with water, holding hands with Qin Ke to share her experiences over the recent period.

"You seem to have already learned the language of this world?" Li Youyi was a bit surprised, not understanding why the two of them could communicate with Li Ling, and their relationship seemed very close.

Gao Huan said: "It was Fourth Miss who pointed out our language wisdom; it only took a day or two, and there is no obstacle to communication."

Li Youyi looked at Li Ling, not expecting her to have such ability, and suddenly wanted to ask her to point out language wisdom for Old Liu, Old Guan, and Qin Ke.

In the past, he would never have thought in this direction naturally.

This thought was too dangerous!

It meant that in his subconscious, he had already begun to accept Li Ling's kindness, and even become accustomed to Li Ling's kindness.

Li Ling said: "For a Nether Lamp Guide, pointing out language wisdom is nothing big. Do you know why this young lady only came to find you today? Because I spent the last two days busy breaking through realms. I am now a Mind Master in the Earth Fire Realm, and I can compete with weaker Five Seas Realm martial cultivators."

Zhao Meng crawled out of the main building when he heard the sound, and seeing Gao Huan and Cai Yutong, he was naturally extremely excited.

"First Mate... you are also too tall... why don't you share some with me..."

Gao Huan walked over, his head only reaching Zhao Meng's knees.

Zhao Meng said: "Each has their own path, each has their own flaws; there is no other way. Dr. Cai, why are you and Gao Huan the only ones here? Where is Dr. Qi?"

Li Youyi had also wanted to ask this question for a long time. Where was Chan Hai Guan Wu?

Cai Yutong said: "She... has important business to attend to now; I'm afraid she doesn't have time to see you old friends."

Li Youyi didn't care what important business Chan Hai Guan Wu was busy with; as long as his own cultivation could continue to advance rapidly, he wouldn't be afraid of her coming to his door again. Anyway, Senior Sister Cai had returned safely, and that was the most important thing.

Li Ling said: "My brother heard about what happened last night and originally wanted to rush over personally, but he was temporarily blocked by Yang Qingxi and had more important things to deal with, so he might see you a little later. However, Fourth Uncle came with me."

Li Ling's reminder suddenly sounded in Li Youyi's ears: "My Fourth Uncle is the number one expert of the Cangli tribe in this sixty-year cycle, also known as the Cangli First Head. You should be honored enough, right? Don't lose your manners."

Li Ling was clearly standing several steps away, but the voice just now was like a close whisper, which others didn't hear at all, which was very strange.

"Fourth girl, what secret words are you whispering?"

Li Songlin, the Cangli First Head, was fifty-two years old this year, but perhaps because of his thick magic power, he looked like he was in his thirties.

He wore a green shirt and gray cloth shoes, looking like a down-and-out scholar, with no momentum on his body.

He gave people an extremely natural sense of relaxation.

Li Youyi knew that the Cangli tribe would react, but he really didn't expect such a big figure to come, so he hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "Greetings to the Cangli First Head."

The rest of the people in the courtyard also bowed and saluted.

"Don't salute, everyone relax a little."

Li Songlin's gaze fell on Li Youyi, and after sizing him up carefully: "Young man, shall we talk alone?"

Without entering the house, Li Songlin sat on a stone stool under the old poplar tree, releasing a cloud of magic energy to wrap the two of them, thereby preventing the following conversation from being overheard.

Seeing Li Youyi still standing, he ordered him to sit down quickly.

"Fourth girl told me about the battle in Burial Xianzhen; the Cangli tribe owes you a huge favor. Later, it was in Burial Xianzhen again that you saved her and helped her uncover the conspiracy of the Earth Wolf King Army."

"You are afraid of the revenge of the Earth Wolf King Army and dare not get involved with us. I understand; I shouldn't have come to disturb your peace."

"But last night, you reported the name of Cangli and used the identity of the Cangli tribe. I think we can contact you normally. Because, even if you don't want to get into trouble anymore, you are now tied together."

"What are your thoughts for the next step? Do you want to enter the Nine Li Dao Academy to cultivate?"
