Killing two late-stage Golden Core cultivators earned him 20,000 experience points, which was incredibly satisfying. Liu Xiaoyuan was overjoyed, thinking that at this rate, he would soon be able to advance again.
However, this time it was a calculated move that caught the two elders of the Heavenly Pole Sect off guard. Next time they encounter other late-stage Golden Core cultivators, they probably won't have such a good opportunity.
After putting away the two golden pills, Liu Xiaoyuan deactivated the Thousand Kill Formation. Although he had lost a lot of spirit stones this time, he had gained a lot, and the gains were greater than the returns.
When Su Xue got home, she heard a noise and immediately came out of her room to ask Liu Xiaoyuan where he had gone.
Liu Xiaoyuan told Su Xue that he had gone out to take care of some things, and Su Xue stopped asking.
Liu Xiaoyuan originally wanted to pull Su Xue to bed to practice her martial arts, but Su Xue refused because she was afraid that Tan Wanyi would see her early in the morning, which would affect family harmony.
Seeing that Su Xue was unwilling, Liu Xiaoyuan did not force her. Tonight's battle with the two elders of the Tianji Sect, even with the help of the Thousand Kill Formation, would not be easy. It would be better to get a good rest for the night.
Lying in bed, Liu Xiaoyuan quickly fell asleep. When he woke up, it was already past seven in the morning.
Su Yun and Tan Wanyi had already gone to school, while the two Su sisters were helping their parents with housework, and their mother was standing aside giving them instructions.
After breakfast, Liu Xiaoyuan wanted to go for a walk outside, but seeing the bright sun, he gave up the idea and played at home with the Su Xue sisters.
Su Yu suggested that since the three of them were free, how about playing cards? Liu Xiaoyuan thought that was a good idea, as it would be a good way to pass the time.
But just as Su Yu returned with a deck of cards, Liu Xiaoyuan received a call from Lu Siyao, who asked him to come to her place.
Since Lu Siyao had called in person, Liu Xiaoyuan naturally couldn't refuse. He could only let the Su sisters play by themselves while Liu Xiaoyuan drove to the police station where Lu Siyao worked.
After getting off the bus, Liu Xiaoyuan went into the police station, found Lu Siyao, and asked her what was wrong.
Lu Siyao said, "Xiao Yuan, I may have to go to another place to handle a case, and I will be away on business for a while."
Liu Xiaoyuan quickly asked, "Siyao, where are you going to handle the case? Why is your station sending you out to handle a case? Are there not enough police officers in other places?"
Lu Siyao shook her head and said, "I don't know either. I was just following orders."
After saying that, Lu Siyao saw the worried look on Liu Xiaoyuan's face and said, "Xiaoyuan, it's okay, I'm fine, you don't need to worry about me. I'm a cultivator now, so don't worry."
Indeed, as Lu Siyao herself said, she is now a cultivator, and ordinary criminals have no way to deal with her. Even if bullets come at her, Lu Siyao is fully confident that she can avoid them.
After this period of cultivation, Lu Siyao's cultivation level has finally reached the mid-stage of Qi Refining, which makes her a true master in the eyes of ordinary people.
"Okay, then you need to be careful too. If anything happens, let me know immediately, okay?" Liu Xiaoyuan said to Lu Siyao.
"I know, don't worry, my phone will be on 24/7. If I'm in danger, I'll call you first!" Lu Siyao said with a smile.
After a pause, Lu Siyao continued, "Xiao Yuan, I'm leaving tomorrow, so can you come with me for a nice shopping trip today?"
Lu Siyao didn't know how long the mission would take, because the director hadn't given a timeframe, only saying that she would be back after the mission was completed.
Such ambiguous statements are the most frustrating. What does it mean to say that you'll come back once the mission is completed? What if the mission takes several years to complete? Does that mean you can't come back for several years?
Liu Xiaoyuan immediately nodded in agreement and said, "Okay, Siyao, I'll accompany you shopping today."
There wasn't much to see in the town; only the county seat had shopping streets and the like. So Liu Xiaoyuan took Lu Siyao to the county seat.
Liu Xiaoyuan and Lu Siyao parked their car in front of a supermarket and went inside.
But how big can a supermarket in a county town be? After all, it's a county town of unknown tier, so how big can the supermarket be?
After walking around for a while, Lu Siyao felt bored and said she hadn't seen enough and wanted to go to the shopping street outside. Liu Xiaoyuan had promised to accompany Lu Siyao to have a good shopping trip today, and as a grown man, he couldn't go back on his word.
So Liu Xiaoyuan accompanied Lu Siyao to the commercial street. The shops on the commercial street were either selling clothes, snacks, or internet cafes.
Anyway, this is a street full of food, drinks and entertainment. If you come to the county town, this is the place to go.
Lu Siyao immediately went into a clothing store to try on clothes and excitedly asked Liu Xiaoyuan if they looked good.
"She looks good! My Siyao looks good in anything!" Liu Xiaoyuan said with a smile. This wasn't a compliment, but the truth. There's no way around it; beautiful women look good in anything.
Lu Siyao asked with a smile, "It's really beautiful, so I bought it!"
Liu Xiaoyuan nodded and said, "Buy it, no problem, I'll pay for it." As he spoke, Liu Xiaoyuan took out his bank card, which had eight figures in it, so buying Lu Siyao a few clothes was no problem at all.
In one go, Lu Siyao bought three pieces of clothing, spending over a thousand yuan on Liu Xiaoyuan.
At this moment, another young couple in the store saw this and the woman said enviously, "Honey, look how generous they are. They want to buy it too. Why don't you pay for it?"
"Baby, I haven't received my salary yet. I'll definitely buy it for you after I get paid, okay?" The guy was under immense pressure; flirting with girls wasn't easy, especially during this economic crisis!
Upon hearing this, the woman immediately became unhappy and said, "Hmph, if you don't want to buy it, just say so. Don't make up this excuse. I'm not going shopping!"
Upon hearing this, the man immediately tried to persuade her to buy it, suggesting she use her credit card. Only then did the woman smile.
Upon seeing this, Liu Xiaoyuan and Lu Siyao exchanged a glance, smiled, and walked out of the clothing store.
"Xiao Yuan, if I were that girl from earlier, would you still like me? Tell me the truth," Lu Siyao asked, linking her arm with Liu Xiaoyuan's.
To be honest, from a certain perspective, that girl wasn't a good girl. She didn't consider her boyfriend's feelings at all; she only cared about her own needs and never cared about his feelings. You'd be better off marrying her than keeping her around for the holidays.
But boys too, if you don't have any money in your pocket, you shouldn't agree to go shopping with a girl. You should stay at home and have a good time talking about love, isn't that better?
