Qi Zixiao's talent is unmatched; otherwise, she wouldn't have reached the peak of the Spirit Severance Stage at her age.
Her talent isn't just reflected in the speed of her cultivation progress but also in her comprehension of Daoist techniques.
At this moment, watching the 'Divine Sword Control Thunder True Technique' on TV, Qi Zixiao had a flash of insight by chance!
But...
Just then, with a momentary blur of consciousness, Lin Fan and Qi Zixiao's souls crossed over again, returning to their respective bodies.
"I'm back..."
Lin Fan's eyes were bright, filled with anticipation.
"I've memorized the entire Eight Desolations Six Directions Only I Am Supreme Skill. I'll try to cultivate it later to see if I can succeed."
"But... for now, I'll check what that Tigress, Qi Zixiao, has been up to these past few days. Hopefully, she hasn't caused any trouble."
In Lin Fan's mind, Qi Zixiao is far from being someone who doesn't cause worry.
The TV was still playing, and the note on the coffee table was quite noticeable.
"She's learned to binge-watch dramas? That's good; at least watching TV won't cause any trouble..."
He picked up the note and took a closer look.
The first line had ten characters, written with such force that the paper was pierced.
"You forgot to tell me the phone password!!!"
It wasn't hard to tell that Qi Zixiao must have been very frustrated, even a little frantic, when she wrote this line.
"Uh..."
Lin Fan touched his nose, slightly embarrassed. "So, I actually forgot to tell her the password?"
"It seems I did..."
Thinking back, he had indeed forgotten to leave the unlock password. He had set one of the phones to keep the screen on, so Qi Zixiao could operate it to watch videos after crossing over, but after she locked the screen...
It was unusable!
For Qi Zixiao, a 'high-tech product' like a phone was one of the most interesting things after she crossed over, but she couldn't use it because she didn't have the password...
"Ahem, no wonder she left me a note instead of a video."
Lin Fan remembered this and continued reading.
"Instant noodles taste good, but I'm getting tired of them!"
This was the second sentence Qi Zixiao left.
Lin Fan: "..."
He roughly checked his cash and the money in his phone, finding that none of it was missing, and couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.
"Did she really eat instant noodles for three days?"
"... I told her to avoid running around, but I didn't say she couldn't go out to eat."
"Maybe I should buy her some rice, vegetables, and other things to put in the kitchen next time?"
After thinking about it, Lin Fan rejected the idea.
What a joke!
Would the lofty Saintess cook?
She'd probably set the house on fire before she even made a meal!
Qi Zixiao's third line.
I need information about the cultivation world. How do I get to the cultivation world from this world?
Lin Fan: "..."
"You're asking me? Who am I supposed to ask?!"
"I think this Tigress is just trying to make things difficult for us!"
Clearly, Lin Fan misunderstood.
Qi Zixiao was thinking about finding information about the cultivation world so that this body could also cultivate, at least to protect herself in this strange world.
But Lin Fan mistakenly thought that Qi Zixiao wanted to find a way home or something...
But no matter what the idea or meaning was, where could he find news about the cultivation world?
How to get to the cultivation world?
Who knows?
The note left by Qi Zixiao only mentioned these three things; nothing else was said.
After all, with Qi Zixiao's personality, she wouldn't say much unless necessary. Did he expect her to write down how many buckets of instant noodles she ate, how many circles she walked in the room, and how many times she went to the bathroom?
That's simply impossible.
"Fortunately, there were no accidents this time."
Lin Fan breathed a sigh of relief after roughly understanding the situation.
The money wasn't missing, proving she didn't run around. She didn't run around trying to escape, and she was in the mood to sit here and watch dramas, proving she didn't cause trouble.
"So, I need to make plans for what to do next as soon as possible..."
At this moment, there were three major issues in front of Lin Fan.
First, return to school!
The holiday was over, and tomorrow was the time to return to school. He had to check in.
Of course, checking in only took an hour, but the problem was, what would happen when Qi Zixiao was in control of his body? Let her go to class? That would be too easy to expose...
So, he had to find a way to solve this.
Second, make money!
Adding up all the money he had on him, it was only three or four hundred yuan. Even if he ate instant noodles every day, it wouldn't last long, not to mention how could he possibly eat instant noodles every day?
Third, practice cultivation!
He had already memorized the Eight Desolations Six Directions Only I Am Supreme Skill. As someone who grew up watching martial arts movies, how could Lin Fan not try to cultivate?
What if... he succeeded?
After thinking for a long time, Lin Fan still couldn't figure out a way to return to school.
"If I don't want to expose this, there are only two options: one, don't let her know about school and skip class directly; two... be more direct and drop out."
Lin Fan was reluctant to do either, but there was really no other way.
"Forget it, forget it, I'll go check in, and if I have time, I'll go to class. As for when Qi Zixiao takes over... just let her stay at home. Skipping class is skipping class, and we'll deal with the rest later."
The boat will naturally straighten when it reaches the bridge. There's no need to keep dwelling on things that can't be solved right now; it's better to jump straight to the next item.
"I'm short on money right now, so... doing daily-paid work is actually better." Lin Fan began to ponder.
Of course, not the kind of daily-paid work that the Sanhe Great Gods do.
"There's no other way, I can only go back to carrying bricks."
When he first entered university, his family was really struggling and couldn't afford to give him money, so Lin Fan relied on his strength and worked on construction sites carrying bricks for a while.
Later, as he gradually became decadent, he rarely went, but he still had the foreman's contact information, so it wouldn't be difficult to carry bricks if he wanted to.
"But..."
"Excluding today, I still have to go to school to check in tomorrow, so there's only one day left after tomorrow. Even if I work all day, I can only earn one or two hundred yuan, which isn't enough."
"Should I... let Qi Zixiao control my body to carry bricks too?"
Lin Fan's eyes rolled, and he suddenly had a good idea.
There were too many people who knew him at school, and he often had close contact with his tutors, so it would be easy to get exposed.
But construction work is different! On the construction site, everyone is busy, who has time to pay attention to you? If no one pays attention, and everyone is unfamiliar, won't that prevent exposure?
"I'm so clever!"
This guy was a little smug.
But... for some reason, just thinking about the scene of the dignified Saintess carrying bricks on a construction site made him want to laugh.
"For now, let's decide on this. Next... I'll try cultivating the Eight Desolations Six Directions Only I Am Supreme Skill!"
