Two floating souls appeared in Qian Gang's mind.

"Who are you? Why can you control my body? Aren't I going to die?" Qian Gang spoke first, a series of questions tumbling out.

“I am from another dimension, named Li Xuanzu. Your planet is about to face a great calamity, and I have carefully chosen your body as my temporary home. As for why I can control your body, it is because I am stronger than you,” Li Xuanzu replied.

Qian Gang was very grateful to Li Xuanzu after hearing this, but he was still unwilling to give his body to Li Xuanzu.

"Thank you for your help, but I'm afraid I can't comply with the request to hand over my body." Qian Gang didn't believe that an ordinary person like himself could receive the treatment of a protagonist in a novel, with an old man saving him in his time of need.

And the old man isn't in the ring either.

Li Xuanzu didn't rush to explain anything, and directly sent Qian Gang back into his body.

Qian Gang had been pulled back from the brink of death by Li Xuanzu, and his soul was already very weak, so how could he continue to control his body?

After several unsuccessful attempts, Qian Gang gave up.

"Well, you can't go back to this body now. If I leave, you'll really die. At least while I'm here, I can keep your soul from dissipating." Li Xuanzu wasn't lying to him. If he really left Qian Gang's body, then Qian Gang would really have to reincarnate.

After thinking for a while, Qian Gang had no choice but to hand over his body to Li Xuanzu.

"Alright, then I'll entrust my body to you, senior. Thank you for helping me." Qian Gang's soul bowed to Li Xuanzu.

Qian Gang was a little worried about his sister Qian Li, so he looked at Li Xuanzu.

Li Xuanzu was speechless at his gaze and said, "Don't worry, I will take good care of that little girl. After this great calamity is over, I will find a way to increase the strength of your soul and then change your body."

Li Xuanzu did not intend to remain permanently in Qian Gang's body. He wanted to create a perfect body of his own to fulfill the unfulfilled wish of his predecessor—to become an immortal!

As for exploring the root of the great calamity, that depends on him having the strength to do so.

With some time still remaining before the great calamity, Li Xuanzu planned to first use some herbs for a medicinal bath to improve his physical condition, and then try to cultivate his skills using Qian Gang's body.

However, the current problem is...

Li Xuanzu turned to look at Qian Li, who was sitting on the ground trembling.

This is a problem.

"Sister, sister, it's all over now. Let's clean up the house first." Li Xuanzu didn't know how to address Qian Li, so he simply decided not to reveal his identity and just called her sister.

Qian Li nodded, went to the bathroom, picked up a rag made from torn clothes, and was about to wipe up the blood on the floor.

Li Xuanzu quickly grabbed Qian Li, took the rag from her hand, and wiped the area himself.

It's already very bad to let a child see blood.

Qian Li could only tidy up the room that had been ransacked.

Once everything in the room was back to normal, the two sat on the sofa.

The two remained silent, and the scene became quite awkward.

"You, you're not my brother, right?" Qian Li had recovered quite a bit from the shock, but she was still stuttering, probably quite frightened.

Li Xuanzu was taken aback. He hadn't expected the little girl to have such a sharp eye, so he straightened his posture.

"Yes, in a sense, your brother is dead, but don't worry, he'll have a chance to come back later. This body is mine for now." Li Xuanzu didn't lie to Qian Li. She had experienced the loss of her parents when she was young, and her senses were very sharp. A white lie might not be so kind at this time.

Qian Li nodded and asked no more questions, and an awkward silence filled the room once again.

Li Xuanzu was getting restless and stood up to stretch, but then remembered that his waist wound hadn't fully healed, so he didn't.

Qian Li also stood up, her hands unsure of what to do, and followed Li Xuanzu with her head down.

“Sigh, your brother asked me to take good care of you, and I agreed. You don’t need to be afraid that I will abandon you or anything. A month from now, something big will happen that will affect the entire planet. Stay with your landlady for the next few days, okay?” Li Xuanzu learned all of Qian Gang’s memories from him.

Only after seeing Qian Li nod did he feel at ease enough to leave.

The problem now is that we don't have money.

Li Xuanzu learned about the price of Blue Star herbs from Qian Gang's memories.

The herbs he needs cost tens of thousands of yuan each. Qian Gang used to work part-time on weekends and during his spare time, and he only earned two thousand yuan a month. That was only because the restaurant owner took care of him, providing him with meals and even letting him take some home.

Otherwise, Qian Gang wouldn't even be able to afford the tuition.
