That Terrifying Front Armor! / Master, Shall We... Have a Date Tonight?

Li Sushang chuckled as she looked at Ling Xi, and deliberately leaned closer to Ling Xi.

Ling Xi "..."

"Sushang, Memorial on Sending Out the Troops 'Memorial on Dispatching the Troops' ten times and bring it to my room before I go to sleep tonight."

Ling Xi looked at Li Sushang with a smile.

"Ah? No, Master!"

Li Sushang burst into tears. The Memorial on Sending Out the Troops to the Throne on the Eve of the Northern Expedition... writing it was not only agonizing, but also...

It's full of rare and difficult-to-write characters!

"Keep it up, I believe in you."

Ling Xi still gave Li Sushang a gentle smile. "If you don't finish, you won't get your phone, computer, comics, or snacks for a month."

"Master, you... I..."

Li Sushang really wanted to curse, but she was afraid of being punished more severely by Ling Xi. As for hitting someone...

Nonsense! If I could beat him, I would have already turned the tables and ridden Ling Xi under my feet. Unfortunately... I can't beat him!

Of course, Li Sushang had also considered running away from home, and she had even used this tactic to threaten Ling Xi before, but...

Without saying a word, Ling Xi packed all her belongings, even hailed a carriage for herself, and gave herself a farewell gift...

"I understand... Master..."

In the end, Li Sushang could only reluctantly agree, looking at Ling Xi with a resentful expression...

He wanted to use the "The Return of the Condor Heroes" move, but his master directly used the "righteousness kills family" move.

Damn it! Once I've mastered all of Master's skills and can defeat him, I'll definitely avenge this humiliation. At that time...

Ten times? Hmph... at least a hundred times!

However, it seems that Master hasn't changed at all since he met me...

When the two met ten years ago, Ling Xi looked just like this, barely an adult. Ten years later, her master should have become an uncle, but... he seems to have changed completely.

Chapter 569: Terrifying Frontal Armor!

"Um?"

At this moment, Ling Xi also noticed Li Sushang's gaze and asked in an annoyed tone, "Why are you looking at me instead of eating properly?"

"Eh..."

Li Sushang chuckled and said, "Master, I'm just a little curious, why haven't you aged in the past ten years? No... it seems like your facial and body data haven't changed at all."

"Oh..."

Ling Xi chuckled and said, "I told you long ago that I'm your mother's martial uncle, do you believe me now?"

"Ugh..."

Li Sushang seemed hesitant to speak. To be honest, she was reluctant to believe it, after all, Ling Xi's appearance was too outrageous, but...

In the ten years that I've spent with Ling Xi really hasn't changed at all, which is just ridiculous, you know?

"I said, this is the power of science."

Ling Xi put a piece of meat in Li Sushang's bowl and said with a smile, "I always told you to read more and study hard, but you didn't believe me. Now you're dumbfounded, aren't you? You don't know anything when I ask you questions."

Li Sushang: "..."

"Gene technology, right..."

Li Sushang pursed her lips. Over the years, besides teaching her martial arts and literacy, Ling Xi Li Sushang had also gradually introduced her to some scientific knowledge, such as...

As for Honkai, Li Sushang now understands the essence of internal energy; to put it bluntly, it's Honkai Energy!

This is one of the reasons why Li Sushang was Honkai Energy so quickly.

"Um."

Ling Xi smiled slightly and said, "Do you still remember the injection I gave you five years ago?"

"Hmph, how could I not remember..."

Li Sushang's face darkened. Ling Xi had clearly said it wouldn't hurt, but... the injection itself didn't hurt much, but the pain afterwards was something she still remembered very clearly.

"That is also a product of gene technology."

Ling Xi calmly said, "Otherwise, why do you think your strength has increased so quickly? After all, the human body has its limits. The injection I gave you last time was Hypervariable Factor that suddenly pushed the limits of human genes. It is precisely because of this that your strength has reached the level of the second strongest in the world in just five years!"

At this point, Li Sushang's Honkai Energy Adaptability had exceeded 1500HW. Excluding himself and other people from the Previous Era, she was undoubtedly the world's number one. However, if she were by his side, she would only be the world's number two.

"Can I stay young forever like my master?"

Li Sushang asked this question out of curiosity. Although she was still young, for girls, staying young forever was an eternal temptation.

"Cannot."

Ling Xi smiled slightly and said, "The Hypervariable Factor you used is a mass-produced, conventional Hypervariable Factor. It only has the effect of enhancing Honkai Energy activity and has no other special effects. So at most, you can extend your life by one or two hundred years. When the time comes, you will still return to the small box."

Li Sushang: "..."

"Master..."

Li Sushang suddenly adopted a coquettish tone, saying with a fawning expression, "Master, could you make me like you too? Like... forever young or something."

Ling Xi "..."

Although Ling Xi had already made plans for Li Sushang's future, seeing the girl's appearance, she still couldn't help but want to complain...

You see, in the original story, Little Li Zi is an honest girl who doesn't know what lying means, is easily fooled, and has a very straightforward personality. And then...

Since this girl started following me, it seems that apart from her still straightforward personality, all her other characteristics from the original story have completely changed. The current Li Sushang, while not necessarily intentionally deceiving me, is...

He often tries to trick me into accepting her, and occasionally when we go out, he'll pretend to be dizzy or tired so I'll carry him. And as for being deceived...

While she wouldn't say she's particularly shrewd, at least she won't be so easily swindled out of her pocket money by professional beggars like she used to be.

Why should I help you?

Ling Xi smiled slightly and deliberately said, "After all, we're not related. Also, let me say it again, I'm not your master. Last time I gave you a Hypervariable Factor injection, that was more than enough, wasn't it?"

"Eh..."

Li Sushang smiled slightly and said, "Then... Master, don't you want us to be together forever? Master, think about it, if we get married in the future, Master can stay young forever, but I will grow old day by day. Wouldn't Master be sad then? So..."

Li Sushang said in a serious tone, "In order not to make Master sad, of course I must stay young with Master forever, so that we can... be eternal!"

"This little girl is quite old, but she thinks a lot!"

Ling Xi said irritably, "Besides, I have no intention of being with you right now."

"Hehe, that's only temporary."

Li Sushang leaned closer again and said with a smile, "Master, look at me, a cute, pretty, talented, and clever girl like me is a rare find in this world. If you don't seize this opportunity, and I happen to fall in love with someone else later, then Master, don't regret it."

Ling Xi speechless. She could agree with the first two adjectives, but clever and quick-witted? Uh... with your intelligence, which is comparable to that of Kiana, you call yourself clever and quick-witted?

Ling Xi didn't answer, but just silently drank her Happy Water. Mmm, sure enough, you have to drink Happy Water in the summer.

"Master..."

Li Sushang called out again, saying in a coquettish tone, "Can you really bear to let my lovely disciple grow old and leave us?"

"Not now."

Ling Xi took a sip of her drink, shook her head slightly and smiled, "Because you're still too young, let's talk about it later."

"It's not small anymore."

Li Sushang put her hands on her hips, proudly puffed out her chest, and snorted, "Master, do you think I'm really that young? Besides... Master, you should also know that girls from ordinary families can get married at thirteen or fourteen. I'm already considered late in marriage and childbirth, you know?"

As Li Sushang spoke, she proudly raised the front armor plate; its scale... well...

The Immortal expressed that he had been offended.

But...

That's not what I meant!

Ling Xi rubbed his forehead, gave Li Sushang a disgruntled look, and said, "What I mean is, you're too young right now, your body isn't fully developed yet, so you can't withstand the impact of stronger Hypervariable Factor. If I inject you with the most powerful Hypervariable Factor right now, then..."

Ling Xi looked at Li Sushang with a mischievous smile and said, "If I want to see you in the future, I'll probably only be able to do so once a year when I come to offer incense for you. Do you... still want to?"

"Eh... this..."

Li Sushang's lips twitched, and in the end, she could only nod helplessly, "Alright, I understand, Master..."

Chapter 570: Master, shall we... go on a date tonight?

After hearing Ling Xi's explanation, Li Sushang was somewhat disappointed, but she didn't dwell on the matter any further.

Li Sushang didn't believe Ling Xi was lying to her, because over the years, Ling Xi had proven one thing, which was...

Her master was truly good to her; he almost always thought of her first when he had something good. And as for the Hypervariable Factor ... Li Sushang believed Ling Xi would definitely give it to her, after all, Ling Xi had already given it to her once, so...

Li Sushang knew that Ling Xi was not lying to her. Right now, she might really not be able to withstand the backlash from that thing!

After all, when Ling Xi injected him with the Hypervariable Factor last time, he almost died from the pain, and even thought that his master thought he was too annoying and was going to kill him to silence him!

However, it turned out that although his master usually liked to tease and bully him, he also...

When there are good things, Ling Xi is really willing to give them away!

Because of Ling Xi's kindness to her, Li Sushang never doubted anything. So after knowing the answer, Li Sushang stopped bothering Ling Xi and obediently returned to her seat to eat.

However, less than ten seconds after sitting down, Li Sushang spoke up again, saying, "By the way, Master, there seems to be Qixi Lantern Festival in the city tonight. Shall we go and have a look?"

"No, what's so fun about the lantern festival?"

Ling Xi pursed her lips, looking uninterested. A Qixi Festival party? She'd rather stay home and study than waste that time!

"Let's go for a walk, Master..."

But Li Sushang seemed very interested and said with a smile, "Master, you've been staying at home for months without going out. You'll be getting moldy if you don't go out soon."

"Why are you so excited?"

Ling Xi chuckled deliberately, "Are you trying to find a handsome young man at the Qixi Festival party?"

"Tch, what's so interesting about those guys?"

Li Sushang looked disgusted and laughed, "After all, Master is the most handsome. In front of Master, they are all a bunch of trash who can be easily defeated by Master. Whether it is strength or appearance, Master is the number one in the world!"

"Mmm... that's what I like most about you, you always speak the truth."

Ling Xi also showed a satisfied smile, but... that was indeed the truth. After all, Li Sushang in the original work seemed to be a bit of a looks-obsessed person. However, in the past ten years, Li Sushang's standards seemed to have risen a lot. Anyone who was inferior to her master, Li Sushang wouldn't even bother to glance at...

Wait a minute, why did I call myself a master? No, no, absolutely not!

"Then, Master, shall we go?"

Li Sushang looked at Ling Xi with an obedient expression, her eyes filled with anticipation, as if she really wanted to go.

"If you want to go, then go ahead."

Seeing how expectant Li Sushang looked, Ling Xi couldn't refuse, so she agreed.

Besides, staying at home all the time without internet is indeed a bit boring, so...

Let's go for a walk with this girl tonight, just to relax.

"Yay! Master is the best!"

Li Sushang immediately spun around happily. After all, she hadn't been out for a long time. Although Ling Xi hadn't restricted her freedom, going out alone was boring, and the mountain was still a bit far from the city!

"Oh, by the way, remember to copy all ten Memorial on Sending Out the Troops to the Throne on the Eve of the Northern Expedition'."

Ling Xi added with a smile, "We'll set off whenever you finish copying."

Li Sushang: "..." Master is a bad person...

In the evening, Li Sushang finally finished copying the Memorial on Sending Out the Troops ten times. Afterwards, she quickly took a shower, changed into a new set of clothes, and finally hurriedly set off with Ling Xi!
