The Summoning of the Lazy King's Throne!

Only now has Li Yao realized that he actually has the potential to be a master conman...

I heard this is the standard trait of scumbags and scumbags.

but,

People shouldn't confuse scumbags with scumbag men and women.

A scumbag is someone who lies in bed and tells you the moonlight is beautiful tonight, then leaves a rose on your desk before leaving; a scumbag is someone who promises you a future together in bed, discusses names for your future children, and then steals a pickled chicken foot from your desk before leaving.

The scumbags are good-looking and have sweet words; they're perfect in every way except for not belonging to you.

Li Yao was fooled by Jiang Zhiying, so before she could react, he quickly put her in the car...

After Jiang Zhiying got into the car and started the engine, she poked her head out and said, "My little sister said she wants to go back to the provincial capital with you. You can arrange the rest. Will you stay here tonight?"

Li Yao: "No, let's give her some peace and quiet tonight."

Jiang Zhiying nodded.

That works too.

Finally, she stared at Li Yao and said, "Remember to let me know when everything is settled, otherwise I'll be very worried."

Li Yao: "No problem!"

Jiang Zhiying: "Thank you very much."

The mature and virtuous woman smiled, her gentle smile as warm as the evening breeze in June.

After receiving Li Yao's assurance, she drove away, and Li Yao returned to his hotel.

After everything was settled, Li Yao took out his phone and sent a message to Lin Xiaowei: "I told Jiang Zhiying about the situation, and she is willing to go to your place to help you."

Lin Xiaowei did not reply.

The phone was silent.

Li Yao was already used to it, smiled, and put his phone aside.

Chinese New Year is almost here!

Does Lin Xiaowei miss home a lot over there?

What if she makes dumplings and glutinous rice balls but has no one to share them with? And then enjoys them alone under the strange gazes of the otherworldly beings? Oh, she probably can't make dumplings, after all, she's a master of terrible cooking.

But she's a mage.

There's always a way.

Wang Wei wrote, "Alone in a foreign land, I am a stranger; on every festive occasion, I miss my family all the more." If one feels this way even while in the same country but in a different place, what must it feel like to be in a different world? It must be very lonely and sad.

So, wouldn't it be nice if Li Yao sent a fellow villager to Lin Xiaowei so they could eat dumplings together during the Spring Festival, hang a lantern, and paste up a couplet?

At the very least,

It's not so deserted anymore.

It's just that Jiang Zhiying has had a hard time, which is why Li Yao said he's also a selfish person... He took a deep breath, cleared his mind of distractions, and began to cultivate.

Li Yao waited until dawn before returning to Jiang Zhiying's home in Little Stone City.

With the help of her nanny, Jiang Zhiying packed her luggage early in the morning. The luggage was simple: a few clothes, some daily necessities, and quite a lot of cosmetics. Jiang Zhiying had put on makeup today, and the powder and rouge covered up the paleness on her face, making her look much brighter.

She said happily, "Let's go then."

Li Yao looked around. "Where's your sister? Isn't she going to see you off?"

Jiang Zhiying smiled and said, "I won't see you off, so as not to make you sad."

Li Yao nodded. "Alright."

After that, I took a taxi to the train station, bought a ticket, and was able to return to the provincial capital around the afternoon.

On the high-speed train, my best friend finally replied to my message: "Holy crap! Really? How did she come to terms with the question of soul belonging?"

Li Yao glanced at Jiang Zhiying, who was feigning sleep beside him, and replied, "For a mage, the soul is the foundation of power, and it's something they would never give up. But it's not like that for her; she'll perish sooner or later anyway. Why not try a different way of living? By the way, should I extract her soul and transfer it to you, or should you summon her along with her body?"

Lin Xiaowei pondered for a moment and said, "Anyway, her body is failing. We can extract her soul, create a Soul Vessel for her to reside in, and then I can summon her back."

so,

The subject of the summoning changed from the soul to the Soul Vessel.

Even if something unforeseen happens in the future, Jiang Zhiying will have a place to call home.

Lin Xiaowei continued, "It's a pity that the Summoning Law filters things very meticulously. Anything with a soul will be branded as soon as it passes through the Summoning Altar. Otherwise, it would be perfect to put the Soul Vessel in Space Ring and teleport it over. Oh well, I'll just protect her for life!"

Li Yao found these words rather strange!

Are you acting in some third-rate historical romance drama?! But Lin Xiaowei couldn't care less about any of that. "I'm not talking to you anymore! I'm going to make some arrangements. I have to make sure my fellow villagers feel right at home!"

Li Yao could almost picture Lin Xiaowei jumping around excitedly on the other end of the line.

So he laughed and said, "Alright, go ahead."

After a journey of more than an hour, Li Yao and Jiang Zhiying arrived in the provincial capital.

Looking at the bustling South Station, Jiang Zhiying sighed, "The last time I came to the provincial capital was more than two years ago. Now that I'm here again, it seems that many places are different."

Li Yao laughed and said, "That's right, things are developing so fast now."

They took a taxi from the South Station back to the Lost Tavern on Drum Tower Road.

As soon as I got off the bus,

Seeing the tall, ancient ginkgo tree and the lush, verdant Osmanthus Tree in front of the Midnight Bar and Lost Tavern, Li Yao felt instantly refreshed! Damn, finally home! Li Yao could even feel the Lazy King's Throne in front of the fireplace beckoning him!

He hadn't felt any urgency while in the carriage, but now that the tavern was right in front of him, he felt an irresistible urge to lie down on his throne!

He glanced at the Midnight Bar next door; its doors were closed even in broad daylight.

Whether they were on a mission or simply too lazy to open due to declining business, Li Yao was even wondering if he should ask Lin Xiaoxi to give the shop next door a drink.

After all, they've had a long-standing relationship, and we can't just watch Boss Zhou's business decline like this.

Li Yao gave a passionate speech at the entrance, then pointed smugly at the Lost Tavern and said, "Look, this is my world!"

Jiang Zhiying smiled and said, "The sea of suffering is boundless, but I can cross it... It's quite stylish to pair it with the Lost Tavern."

Li Yao laughed, "Right!"

Although the tavern's name comes from a book called "Dragon and God," and the couplets were found in a pile of old stuff... they just go so well together!

Sometimes, you have to believe in fate!

Li Yao helped Jiang Zhiying into the tavern, where the hustle and bustle immediately enveloped them. The tavern was heated, and a fireplace was burning. Li Yao Li Yao a deep breath; the familiar surroundings and atmosphere were intoxicating!

Chen Xi has sharp eyes,

Li Yao was the first to be discovered.

So he put down the dry cloth and wine glass in his hand and said happily, "Hey, boss, you're back!"

She was completely unaware that there was a sickly-looking girl next to Li Yao.

Li Yao nodded happily. "You're back!"

He glanced around and saw that besides Chen Xi, there was also Wei Dadong behind the bar, who was 1.9 meters tall and had a muscular build like a black bear. He was wearing a white shirt and a black vest with armbands on his arms. He was flipping through a bartending tutorial, learning about the different types of alcohol, and he looked quite refined as he studied hard.

This thing,

That truly defines what a suit-wearing thug is, right?

never mind,

He is not important.

Li Yao glanced around again and noticed that Lin Xiaoxi and Feng Li were both in the tavern...

Feng Li was already a little drunk. She glanced at Li Yao Li Yao and quickly noticed the girl next to him. "Hey? Where did you pick up this girl, bro?"

Li Yao: "..."

Immediately,

The eyes of many acquaintances in the tavern immediately focused on the girl next to Li Yao.

This is the second update, and I'm feeling a bit exhausted. That's all for today. I hope you enjoy reading.
