When Li Xuanzu returned to his residence, it was already past eleven o'clock, the middle of the night.
He pushed open the door and went in, only to find everyone sitting in the living room chatting, with no one sleeping.
"What's going on? It's so late at night, Qian Li is still growing, why aren't you two going to sleep and instead you're making her go crazy?" Li Xuanzu frowned slightly.
Ouyang Ningxue looked embarrassed and did not answer.
"Brother, it's because I can't sleep, please don't blame Sister Ouyang." Qian Li spoke cautiously, like a child who had made a mistake.
Li Xuanzu was taken aback, then seemed to realize something and found an empty seat on the sofa to sit down.
"Because of your brother?"
Qian Li was not mature enough and couldn't hide many things, especially from Li Xuanzu's divine sense; no one could hide anything from him.
Qian Li didn't speak, but she nodded.
She rarely acted coy or pretentious, and she knew exactly how to behave when interacting with Li Xuanzu.
"I won't go back on my promise. Let's settle this tomorrow. We have time now. Don't think too much about it. Go to sleep." Li Xuanzu always treated Qian Li this way. Even when he was in a bad mood, he wouldn't let his emotions affect his conversations with Qian Li.
Qian Li remained silent, but it was clear that she had felt much more at ease, and her anxiety had subsided. She went to her room to sleep.
Ouyang Ningxue had only intended to keep Qian Li company and chat with her for a while, but after Qian Li left, she turned around and went back to her room.
Fu Yu was left in the living room looking completely bewildered; she clearly had no idea what was going on.
"What's going on? Weren't we supposed to relax and have some fun after dealing with the weird stuff? What happened?" Fu Yu's brain was about to explode.
She actually started chatting with him.
"Aren't you curious about what Qian Li was talking about?" Li Xuanzu was amused by Fu Yu's attitude. Now that the misunderstanding was cleared up, there was no need to put on airs anymore.
"No, no, no, I'd better go to sleep." Fu Yu quickly shook her head, but the gossip in her eyes betrayed her.
"You're getting shy? It's not really a secret. I'm just telling you in advance so you can be mentally prepared." Li Xuanzu grabbed Fu Yu's hand, stopping her from going back to her room.
Fu Yu's mind went blank, and she obediently sat down next to Li Xuanzu.
"You should be able to tell that this body is only eighteen years old, but it doesn't have the behavior and judgment that an eighteen-year-old should have. You should be able to guess what I mean by that."
"This body originally belonged to Qian Li's brother, Qian Gang, but he was dying and I saved his life. His body is temporarily mine, but now that I have new abilities, it doesn't matter whether I keep this body or not."
"Tomorrow, I will create a body myself, so don't mistake me for someone else," Li Xuanzu explained briefly.
Fu Yu stared at Li Xuanzu with her mouth agape in shock.
Clearly, she hadn't guessed it.
However, Fu Yu nodded as if she understood, indicating that she had heard.
"Then... when you create your body, can you change your appearance?" Fu Yu's perspective on the problem was indeed very novel.
"Sure, what's wrong? Do you want to see what I originally looked like?" Li Xuanzu saw through Fu Yu's thoughts and asked with a smile.
"I guess so. Let me ask you one more question, but don't get angry." To Li Xuanzu's surprise, he hadn't guessed Fu Yu's true intention.
Tell me about it.
"No, unless you promise I won't be angry." Fu Yu quickly shook her head, as if to say, "I won't tell you unless you promise."
"Okay, I'm not angry." Li Xuanzu had no choice; he was genuinely curious about what Fu Yu was thinking.
"Are you really not angry?" Fu Yu asked again, still a little uneasy.
"If you don't tell me, I'll beat you up."
"Okay, okay, I'll tell you." Fu Yu was frightened by Li Xuanzu.
"Yeah, could you create a female body? I'd like to see it..." Fu Yu chuckled.
Li Xuanzu's face turned black.
"You're quite the thinker. Go to sleep now, you have to get up early tomorrow." Li Xuanzu was really angry, and felt a pang of regret when he thought about his promise.
"Hehe, getting angry will give you wrinkles, goodnight." Fu Yu walked briskly back to her room.
"What a quirky girl," Li Xuanzu muttered, then fell asleep on the sofa.
