"What's the matter?" Yang Qinglan had been paying attention to him.
"It's been a long ti since I looked at the world through the eyes of an ordinary person," Li Changzhou turned his head and smiled at her, "I'm a bit unaccustod."
Yang Qinglan sized him up; without the imposing aura of mana or the 'godliness' that ca from his Divine Body, he had reverted to the young college student they had first t on the bus in September.
A young man with handso features and an impressive build.
"If you ride an electric scooter now, it won't feel out of place at all," she laughed.
"Have you seen ride an electric scooter?" Li Changzhou asked with a smile.
"When you and Qian Xia first ca to the bookstore, you ca on an electric scooter," Yang Qinglan paused, then said, "I heard you are incredibly fierce, like a wild beast?"

It was when they were waiting for the traffic light; a BMW driver thought Qian Xia was Li Changzhou's girlfriend and asked her how she compared to Li Changzhou. Qian Xia had said that Li Changzhou was incredibly fierce, practically a wild beast.
Such a distant mory wouldn't be known to Yang Qinglan, even if she could read information; it must have been Qian Xia who treated this incident as an "interesting story" and shared it with her.
So was Yang Qinglan here to settle the score?
At that mont, she stepped closer and whispered, "Give a chance to see how fierce you really are."
Yang Qinglan was still dressed in her Song Dynasty attire, with a short coat, a chest wrap, and a long skirt, elegant and stately with a floating air of Immortal Energy about her. Although she wasn't revealing anything, the tight wrapping of the chest wrap accentuated her curves, which was in so ways more provocative than being exposed.
Li Changzhou felt a warmth in his lower abdon and reached out to hold her hand.
"What are you two doing!" While admonishing them, Li Qianxia approached with a grin on her face.
"There are many pedestrians on the road; I was afraid of getting separated, so I held her hand," Li Changzhou gently pinched Yang Qinglan's slippery hand, feeling waves of comfort in his heart.
"I'm your sister, why don't you hold my hand?" Li Qianxia took Li Changzhou's other hand.
Passersby who had been stealing glances at the group finally seed to find a reason to openly stare, pointing and whispering about Li Changzhou.
A man holding hands with two won? Scumbag! Go die! Damn, so jealous!
Turquoise Pool was also eyeing the trio, pondering whether she could also grab a hold of sothing, or perhaps ride on Li Changzhou's back—after all, Li Changzhou was used to being mounted.
A black business van pulled up at the curb, breaking up the sowhat awkward scene.
As the door opened, Qian Xia, who had only ridden on an electric scooter (a rented one at that), imdiately let go of Li Changzhou's hand and marveled as she climbed in.
"Wow, Sister Yao, it's so luxurious! A TV, kettle, refrigerator! How much does this van cost?"
"If you like it, it's yours," Turquoise Pool followed her inside, "But this kind of car usually cos with a driver and a secretary. If you like the car, pick one from my garage later, or tell what model you like and I'll have soone send it over right now."
"This... isn't that a bit much?" Li Qianxia was cautious, but it was clear she was tempted (even if earthworms could see it, and they don't have vision).
"Do you think I would still drive those cars? Leaving them there is a waste." Turquoise Pool turned to look at the two people below, "Aren't you coming up?"
"You go ahead. I'm as weak now as a literary laureate from Ming City; there are too many people on Earth who want dead. If I don't take the ti to recover, I won't feel safe. Once you get to the Special Warfare Bureau, let know, Qian Xia."
"Okay!" Li Qianxia nodded.
Countless players with their bright futures blocked by Human Tribulations possessed a myriad of Skills; no one could be certain soone wasn't monitoring Li Changzhou's status at all tis, waiting for a chance to assassinate him while he was weak.
Li Qianxia, Turquoise Pool, and Yang Qinglan were also weakened, but not below the critical threshold. They could sufficiently protect themselves in front of players below the level of an Immortal.
"I will stay with Changzhou; two people refining Qi Transformation together will be faster." Yang Qinglan said.
"It's a pity that my 'Xuan Yin Coffin' can only accommodate won, otherwise I would have lent it to you." Turquoise Pool said to Li Changzhou with a smile.
He had the feeling there was more to her words, a hidden intention behind her ntion of the coffin.
With a whoosh, the door of the business van closed and, like a black fish, it smoothly joined the stream of traffic.
Not long after it set off, the van beca slightly transparent and passed through an Audi SUV in front of it. Just as it was about to enter an intersection, the traffic lights suddenly spun like a compass, turning into another unfamiliar crossing with red lights.
The black business van disappeared. Looking back at the intersection, it was still the sa old crossing.
"Is that considered a car?" Li Changzhou watched them drive away.
"Next to her, we're so poor." Yang Qinglan said, holding his hand and laughing.
"Favored Concubine, naturally she lives in luxury," Li Changzhou laughed, retracting his gaze.
"Who pampers her?" Yang Qinglan tilted her head and inquired.
"My suggestion is to pamper oneself," Li Changzhou's voice suddenly dropped, "Miss Yang, do you have so free ti right now?"
"...What for?" Yang Qinglan pursed her lips with a smile, appearing eager, a bit shy, and sowhat apprehensive.
"I want to show you how fierce I can be."
Disregarding propriety, Li Changzhou took her and disappeared at the subway station exit.
In the sweet cocoon world, Rabbit and Butterfly, who had already entered the station, were nowhere to be seen, but the two of them didn't care and directly appeared in Yang Qinglan's room.
A faint scent lingered in the air, indistinguishable whether it emanated from Yang Qinglan herself or the room.
On the soft, fluffy quilt, they clung to each other tightly, neither willing to let go.
Both were breathing sowhat hastily.
"Qing Lan, I think..." Li Changzhou swallowed, his heart racing.
"...Now?"
"Yes!"
Yang Qinglan glanced downward, the corners of her mouth curling up with a hint of amusent: "You've been so seriously injured, can you still be as fierce as a beast?"
