This Is Not the Female Demon Lord I Remembered

Chapter 117: Chapter 117: It’s You Again, Fatty

"Today the contestants will rest for a day, and tomorrow morning, you guys wait for me here, and I’ll take you all inside."

Liang Yi gave Bai Xiaomo a copy of the Complete Heaven Sect residence address, telling them to come find him tomorrow.

"Thank you, boss!"

Bai Xiaomo couldn’t contain his excitement as he took it, thinking this was written by Liang Yi himself. Wouldn’t those rich ladies go crazy if he posted it on the forum?

Liang Yi stood up, patted the shoulders of the two, and casually checked their levels.

Bai Xiaomo, Level 7.

Ju Xiaobei, Level 5.

Hmm, not bad, they could probably beat the chickens raised by Old Xu in the north of the city.

Liang Yi remembered that in his previous life, the task he took at Old Xu’s place was to help him catch chickens, and those chickens in the yard were generally between Levels 2 and 3.

These levels were actually high among players because current players still mainly focus on exploration, and the level cap during internal testing is only Level 10.

Once the internal testing ends, although some players will be chosen by sects as returnees, it’s just a qualification. Only when the public testing starts will players officially join the sects, learn cultivation techniques, breakthrough the level cap, and have access to sect secret realms and outdoor secret realms.

That will be the real start of the bustling activity; right now is just a bit of minor scuffles.

After briefly sending the two away, Liang Yi planned to wander around the city with his junior sister.

Normally, with Liang Yi’s lazy personality, he would have preferred to go back and fish, but Su Youyi insisted he had been lying down for so many days that he needed to move around a bit.

Left without a choice, Liang Yi reluctantly disguised himself a bit and after bidding farewell to Wu Yangshuo, he planned to take his junior sister to that old lady’s place to buy some more varieties of desserts, and see if they could bump into their senior brother as well.

Hand in hand, they walked down the street with Su Youyi obviously in high spirits, softly humming an unknown soothing tune.

Liang Yi found it somewhat familiar; he seemed to have heard it in a dream, and it was likely something he had taught his junior sister.

This time walking on the street, Liang Yi was much more cautious, not as carefree as last time, focused solely on his junior sister, unaware of being followed.

Although the Devouring Spirit Sect is currently being hunted throughout the city, he wasn’t sure if those lunatics would dare to take such a big risk and stab him in the back again.

Having a joyful time walking through several streets with his junior sister, Liang Yi suddenly focused his gaze.

"What’s wrong, Senior Brother?" Su Youyi looked around seriously but didn’t spot any suspicious characters; she thought the Devouring Spirit Sect had come again.

"Ran into an acquaintance?" Liang Yi smiled and walked forward.

"An acquaintance?" Su Youyi followed him closely; she had just looked around and clearly hadn’t spotted any acquaintances.

Liang Yi then suddenly hugged a chubby man selling flowers at the street corner.

"This... This hero, I... I only sell flowers, not my body!"

This plump man was quite startled by the sudden embrace and stammered out.

"Selling flowers?"

"Mhm!"

"Not selling books anymore?"

"Hero, you must have mistaken me for someone else. I’ve always sold flowers, never books!"

"I don’t want the usual stuff; give me something exciting and a bit inappropriate."

Liang Yi whispered.

Yu Wei was shocked, how did he recognize me?? Was my unbeatable Mirage Talisman swapped?

"Don’t pretend, since fate has brought us together, how about a drink?" Liang Yi smiled. He had heard of Yu Wei’s reputation as a loyal and honorable man among players, which is why he wanted to make friends with him.

"What about these flowers?" Yu Wei didn’t really mind since he was already recognized and had revealed his identity. He was just a bit sad about the goods he had just purchased.

"I’ll buy them all." Liang Yi wasn’t short on money; he directly transferred some spiritual coins to Yu Wei and took all the flowers from him.

Looking at the pile of flowers in his hands, Liang Yi felt it wasn’t right to just leave them scattered. Seeing his junior sister’s interest in these many varieties of flowers, an idea popped into his head.

After borrowing a large, light yellow-colored paper from an auntie next to the stall using his charm, Liang Yi first took a delicate light red rose.

After simply treating it with mana, he used it as a hairpin, gently inserting it into his junior sister’s hair amidst her shy and timid expression.

"Ah, a mistake."

"Ah? Doesn’t it look good, senior brother?" Su Youyi was somewhat flustered.

"Not at all. I thought the flower would make you more beautiful, but it turns out you’re much more beautiful than the flower, making this rose pale in comparison." Liang Yi clapped his hands, satisfied as he looked at his junior sister.

"Is there such a maneuver?"

A player watching nearby was shocked along with Yu Wei. A master! This is a master!

Coach, I want to learn this move!

But Liang Yi wasn’t done yet. He spread out the light yellow paper and neatly placed the treated flowers on it. Liang Yi actually had some experience in floral arrangement in his past life.

After some simple planning and action, the originally disordered flowers that Yu Wei brought became a beautifully structured bouquet.

"Hmm."

Liang Yi collected the bouquet.

"Hey, you’re not giving it to junior sister?" Yu Wei was curious. Liang Yi was really impressive. From his perspective, the value of the flowers had at least doubled after such a simple arrangement.

If marketed towards the high-end, by treating those Spiritual Flowers similarly, the profits could be significant. Moreover, combining different Spiritual Flowers, each with unique effects, could even serve the purpose of Arrays or aid in cultivation with their fragrances, greatly enhancing their commercial value.

Indeed, being the son of a prominent merchant, Yu Wei saw countless business opportunities from just a small act of Liang Yi.

"Giving it to her now, I suspect she will clutch onto it all the way." Liang Yi casually patted his junior sister’s little head, causing her to pout in annoyance.

"Where shall we drink?" Liang Yi asked Yu Wei.

"Let’s go to our Divine Wind Commerce. The best drinks are at our Divine Wind Commerce," Yu Wei decisively planned to swing by his family’s establishment. Why go elsewhere and spend money when you can freeload at home?

But I never agreed to drink, did I? How did things turn out this way; are Liang Yi and I that close? Walking on the road, Yu Wei fell into deep thought, wondering where things went wrong.

Yu Wei led Liang Yi through a special passage directly to the top of Divine Wind Commerce.

The top floor was not as splendidly and extravagantly decorated as the lower floors. Only the highest echelons of the Commerce had the privilege to come here, surrounded by special Arrays, offering an unrestricted view for the ultimate scenic experience.

After arriving at the Commerce, the three no longer hid their true identities.

But facing the exceptionally handsome man across, Yu Wei felt somewhat depressed. Why should he needlessly pose as a rich man? He should have just let Liang Yi invite him directly; why bother returning to the Commerce?

If he lets Liang Yi pay after drinking, he might as well quit his role as Young Master of the Commerce; he couldn’t afford to lose that face.

But thinking about the small amount of money spent on the drinks, Yu Wei felt a series of heartaches!
