Chapter 39

The person wearing the Copper Dragon mask watched Li Yao leave and suddenly asked, "Has anyone seen a 'Servant' who can manipulate objects?"

No one had!

No one had ever heard of a Servant displaying abilities similar to superpowers at a low level. Yet, the aura emanating from him didn't suggest he was a "Traitorous Disciple" who had killed his "Contract Master." It was a bit strange. So, the Copper Dragon Warrior shook his head, "Forget it, let's not pursue it."

At least he wasn't an enemy.

Just keep an eye on him for now. In the current situation, it's best not to create unnecessary complications.

The Copper Dragon Warrior said, "Call the relevant departments and have them come clean this up."

Xiao Wang's mask nodded, "Okay."

Li Yao carried Lin Xiaoxi to the highway at the foot of Azure Dragon Mountain. The area was deserted, making it difficult to get a taxi. Fortunately, there was a bus stop, though the wait might be long.

Li Yao was anxious at the bus stop.

What if the masked people drove by and saw him? Oh! Isn't that the masked guy from before? He's waiting for the bus? How down-to-earth! That would be incredibly awkward.

If that happened, Li Yao would want to silence them – for speaking the truth.

Luckily, the masked people didn't appear by the time the bus arrived. The desolate highway had very little traffic, and the masked people escaped this encounter.

Well, good luck.

Back in the city, Li Yao didn't take Lin Xiaoxi back to his apartment. The various Magic Stones, Alchemy tools, and the Alchemy table made it look like a medieval wizard's workshop. Instead, he booked a hotel room in the city. As for whether bringing a comatose girl would attract attention... not really. The receptionist just assumed Lin Xiaoxi was drunk.

Fortunately, Lin Xiaoxi had her ID with her, which saved a lot of trouble.

After checking in, Li Yao tossed Lin Xiaoxi onto the bed and collapsed on the sofa to rest.

He was exhausted, both physically and mentally.

The events on Azure Dragon Mountain had almost drained his mana.

... Still too weak.

If he could advance to a Formal Mage and inscribe a Magic Source within his soul, he could greatly increase his mana capacity.

Unfortunately, such things had to be done step by step, and couldn't be rushed.

Li Yao was rubbing his temples when his phone vibrated. He opened it to see a message from Lin Xiaowei: "What happened to my sister???"

Li Yao replied, "Your sister is too reckless."

Lin Xiaowei: "Watch your tone! Why are you saying that about my sister!"

"???"

Li Yao exploded, "So you're already protecting her? Do you know what she did? She got involved in the Earth's mystical side conflict through her own investigation. If I hadn't arrived in time, she would be dead, you know?"

Lin Xiaowei felt guilty, "Oh, she... might not be my biological sister."

Li Yao: "..."

Which one of you isn't biologically related? Lin Xiaowei said unhappily, "I'm just teasing you, why are you so angry? Really."

Li Yao rolled his eyes. If I hadn't been clever, I would be dead too.

Lin Xiaowei relented, "Okay, okay, I know my sister is mischievous. I'll apologize to you on her behalf! When I officially advance to Mage, I'll send you some good stuff as compensation. By the way, I'll send you some Alchemy knowledge. Actually, I could send you something using the Mage Tower to anchor coordinates, but the risk is too great."

She still remembered the last anchored coordinates.

But every time she teleported supplies, the Earth was at greater risk of exposure! Li Yao sighed, "Alright, alright, I'm just complaining."

Lin Xiaowei: "Okay, let me see my sister, is she okay?"

Li Yao took a short video of Lin Xiaoxi sleeping soundly and sent it to Lin Xiaowei, who then exploded:

"Did you sleep with my sister???"

Li Yao's face darkened, "What are you looking at! Can't you see she's wearing clothes!"

Lin Xiaowei: "Why didn't you get another room? Do you have ulterior motives towards my sister?"

Li Yao pursed his lips, "Damn it, she's drugged, shouldn't I take care of her? Fine, I'll go open another room, I'm not serving anymore!"

It's so hard to be a person! Lin Xiaowei: "...Don't, I believe in your character!"

Li Yao: "I don't even believe in myself!"

Lin Xiaowei sent a crying expression: "Daddy, I was wrong, I lost my composure. After all, you haven't even slept with me, and my sister doesn't even have a better figure than me, you definitely won't sleep with her."

Li Yao: "???"

Damn, I can sleep with her if she has a better figure than you?

Think about it...

That's impossible!

Love hurts too much, no way, no way.

After reading too much Mi Meng and various feminist rants, Li Yao now sees women as terrifying monsters... He also wants to be in love, but being in love is really tiring.

Today's women...

Are so dramatic.

Li Yao took a deep breath and replied, "Don't think wildly, your sister is fine, it's just that your sister is very strange, her luck is unbelievably good... I haven't even encountered so many strange things, how can she always run into them?"

Lin Xiaowei fell into deep thought: "This may be the difference between a pay-to-win player and a regular player."

Li Yao replied with a wooden face, "So, I'm a regular player?"

Lin Xiaowei: "Without me, you'd definitely be a regular player."

Li Yao replied with a dark face, "That hits the spot, old buddy."

Lin Xiaowei: "Don't worry, with Daddy here, you'll be a cheating player from now on, don't be scared! I'm so awesome, let me put my hands on my hips and rest for a while. JPG."

Li Yao: "Look at how capable you are! By the way, send me the Alchemy related knowledge, I'm quite interested in this stuff."

Lin Xiaowei: "Alright, I'll go study it first, and send it to you in a couple of days!"

Li Yao: "Okay, that's it then."

Lin Xiaowei: "Then I'm logging off, cross-border connection is such a waste of electricity!" After saying that, Lin Xiaowei's avatar went gray.

Li Yao lay back on the sofa again, as if Ge You had possessed him.

Ah~ So comfortable.

Fighting and killing is too tiring.

Isn't it good to be a salted fish with leisure and money? This is simply the most wonderful thing in the world! So Li Yao made up his mind not to get involved in similar incidents in the future, it's too dangerous! Just as he was thinking, Lin Xiaoxi slowly woke up, she was a little dazed, looked around, and found that it was an unfamiliar environment, and... it seemed to be in a hotel? Then she looked at Li Yao on the sofa, and found that Li Yao looked tired, lying on the sofa looking like he had been emptied.

She thought about it, and suddenly felt a bolt of lightning strike her mind! "Li Yao, you bastard, did you sleep with me???"

Li Yao didn't even have the strength to lift his head: "Can't you check if you're wearing clothes before you shout?"

Just two chapters, I also recognize the large-scale true fragrance scene. The feeling of being drained of brainpower, although there is still enough time, but writing more would be perfunctory. I'm not perfunctory. Please forgive me.
