May you have a wonderful love.

May you have a wonderful love.
He shook his numbed wrist caused by the python’s quiver, as Lu Li hurried to scavenge the spoils of battle.
First, he picked up all the guns.
Aside from the one in his hand, there were two M1911s and a Glock 17, all classic and durable killing tools.
He then rummaged through the belongings of several people, finding 2000 pesos, 500 Star Alliance knifes, and four chanical wristwatches.
Finally, he arrived at their pickup truck and scavenged several boxes of spare bullets.
Lu Li’s haul was substantial, he stuffed everything into a tattered backpack and disappeared into the narrow alley.
The city was like a jungle; whenever soone died, it beca a gift from nature.
Not long after Lu Li left, people rushed out to grab everything from the bodies, not even sparing their underwear.
The scene was ravaged, cleaner than if it had been washed by a heavy rain.
It would be several days before Beheading Gang realized Toby and the others were missing.
But secrets don’t stay hidden; the Black Gang would eventually co knocking.
Though called a gang, they were truly just ruthless ard thugs, and they were nurous.
But Lu Li felt not a trace of fear in his heart, instead, he contemplated settling old scores.
His father’s cancer was mostly provoked by “Heidi,” Toby’s mother.
This woman was malicious, taking advantage of her son and his brothers being in Beheading Gang to bully and extort to the extres.
“I, a helpless cripple, originally had no way to deal with them, but now it’s different!”
[Concentrating]was rely an entry-level realm, yet it brought such formidable combat power.
What wonders then would ditation, Zuowang, and Fetal Breath bring!
At this mont, Lu Li couldn’t wait to return to the Otherworld and continue his Spirit Refining Cultivation.
But before that, there were so things to do.
~~~~~~~~~~
Returning to the basent, Lu Li dragged his suitcase, leaving without a second glance at the place he had lived for the last five years.
He arrived near Tijuana High School, where he was a student, and rented an apartnt as his new residence.
The apartnt was spacious and well-equipped, far better than his previous basent.
Moreover, it was on the edge of a wealthy area, with so security provided by police patrols.
Of course, the rent wasn’t cheap; the 500 knives he had captured would only cover two months.
After settling his suitcase, Lu Li hurriedly went to the street corner that had been bombed by a tank, looking for the flower-selling girl—Jessica.
Today happened to be Danielle Festival, a traditional Valentine’s Day in Latin Arica.
But the streets that should have been festive and bustling were now desolate and quiet, with pitifully few tourists.
Tijuana was a border city, mostly reliant on tourists from Star Alliance Country.
With drug lords firing tanks in the streets, who would dare to visit?
Jessica also had no business and was crouched on the ground with her cheek in her palm, her face tinged with worry.
She was mixed-race, possessing a delicate and charming face.
Though her body was still developing, it only made her appear sweeter and cuter.
Suddenly, the girl noticed that the sunlight in front of her was blocked by soone.
Looking up, it was Lu Li.
“Ah, it’s you!”
A delight crossed Jessica’s face, mixed with a puzzled thought: why does big brother seem more handso?
Lu Li’s appearance hadn’t changed, but his whole aura was much crisper, especially his eyes, which were cold as frosty stars, extraordinarily bright.
But when he smiled, his whole deanor beca gentle and warm.
“Can I buy a bouquet of flowers?”
“I’ll give you one~”
Jessica was about to pick out the biggest, prettiest flower.
But Lu Li had already handed over 1000 pesos, placing it discreetly in the flower basket.
Jessica paused slightly, surprised, “You’ve made so money?”
Lu Li laughed, “You could say that.”
The young girl’s face brightened with joy, and she quickly asked, “Can you help with sothing then?”
“Of course,” Lu Li imdiately nodded in agreent; he had co here to repay a favor.
“Co with ~” Jessica pulled his hand, ducking into a nearby deserted alley, “Wait here for ~”
The young girl dashed away in a flurry.
But before long, a heavily made-up woman was brought back.
Moreover, she appeared to be over 40 years old and was dressed in cheap fishnet stockings and a mini skirt, her loose skin exposed.
Lu Li frowned, clearly recognizing her as an aging prostitute.
Jessica, however, pulled out 100 Pesos and gave it to her.
The woman repeatedly thanked her, “Thank you, dear Jessica Angel…”
Jessica shook her head, “Don’t thank , thank this gentleman here for his rcy.
Sincerely thank him.”
“Thank you, young sir, may you have a beautiful love.”
The woman deeply bowed to Lu Li, thanking him repeatedly before turning to leave.
Jessica then ran out again, soon bringing back another prostitute dressed similarly, again offering money.
Perhaps due to the Danielle Festival, the woman offered Lu Li the sa sincere blessing:
“Sir, may you have a beautiful love.”
By now, Lu Li understood what was happening.
Jessica explained as well, “They are old and can’t earn enough money, and they will have their limbs cut off.”
Prostitutes in Tijuana are uniformly “managed” by the Black Gang, and if they don’t earn enough money…
their limbs will be cut off, and in so cases, they are directly beheaded.
In tough tis, this serves both as “team optimization” and as a brutal warning to the newcors to work hard.
Jessica brought these people here pretending to “do business,” allowing them to live a few days longer.
Lu Li opened his mouth to say sothing, but ultimately held back, knowing the brutally bloodthirsty nature of the local customs.
In succession, Jessica brought back several aging prostitutes, each receiving 100 Pesos, depleting the money Lu Li had given her.
And these won, without exception, uttered the sa blessing: “May you have a beautiful love.”
Lu Li heard this blessing ten tis over, his heart filled with bitter laughter.
Himself being disabled, where could he find such a beautiful love…
~~~~~~~~~
After the event, the two walked out of the alley.
Jessica was in a good mood, hopping and skipping along, cheerily saying, “Thank you~”
“It’s nothing, just lending a hand.
Oh~ I haven’t bought my flower yet.”
Lu Li took a “Dali Flower” from the basket and also put 1000 Pesos into it.
Seeing his generosity, Jessica’s amber eyes widened with surprise, “You’ve really struck it rich~”
Little did she know, this was all the money Lu Li had left.
He ruffled the girl’s head, smiling and saying:
“Jessica, I’m really glad to have t you.
I have so things to attend to, so I must go.”
“Sure, let’s add each other on WhatsApp~”
The young girl took out her phone, and Lu Li also took out his, exchanging contacts.
“Goodbye then, good luck!”
After saying farewell, Lu Li turned and left.
Watching his slightly staggering figure, Jessica softly said, “Good luck to you too, Lu Li.”
But at that mont, she frowned, noticing several nacing gazes.
A few heavily tattooed big n were looking at her, their right little fingers adorned with uniform skull rings – the symbol for mbers of the Beheading Gang, also the “managers” of many streetwalkers.
They ogled the girl’s undeveloped tender body, displaying unmistakable malice!
~~~~~~~~~
Lu Li returned to his new ho, activating the Cross-border function with the Kunlun Mirror.
With a flash of blue light, and in just the blink of an eye, he returned to that dim narrow alley.
“It seems where I walk out, I will return.”
Going back and forth between two worlds, Lu Li gained a deeper understanding of the Cross-border function.
However, the Kunlun Mirror clearly appeared exhausted and now lay listless within the Sea of Consciousness, no longer moving.
Obviously worn out, it was ti for so Soul Refining.
Recalling the experience when he had almost passed out last ti…
Lu Li thought it best to have Wanqing watch over him for safety.
He picked up his backpack containing a watch and a pistol and quickly walked towards Mo’s Clinic.
