After complaining, Linghu Lan sighed and then coaxed the restrictions on her body in a low voice, "Restriction Master, I know I was wrong, please let me go!"
The restriction was arrogant and completely ignored Linghu Lan.
Linghu Lan looked up. It was already dark outside, and her shop door was still wide open. She was stuck there and couldn't close the door, so she could only draw a barrier on the door to prevent people from coming in and asking about her posture. It was really troublesome.
She drew the barrier with her mind very quickly, and in the blink of an eye, only a small hole remained. Just as she was about to fill the hole, someone crawled in from the hole and exclaimed, "That was close! I almost got locked out!"
The newcomer landed and stood up. Linghu Lan recognized him at a glance. He was an acquaintance, the very same monster who had come to the shop during the day to steal her purple crystal.
The monster was now bruised and swollen, and the black clothes that covered his whole body were torn, making him look dirty and tattered.
Linghu Lan had once been a demon, so she didn't have any ill feelings towards this demon. However, she was very tired today and really wanted to rest.
However, knowing that he would never be able to rest until he got rid of this guy, he could only ask weakly, "What are you doing here?"
In the darkness, the monster discovered Linghu Lan pressed against the wall in a strange posture and immediately burst into laughter.
"Why are you in that position? It looks awful!"
Linghu Lan's face darkened: "..." What to do? She no longer cared about family ties and wanted to cripple him!
The demon was a third-rank Spirit King, and Shenji's level was far higher than his. He couldn't even see that Linghu Lan had been placed under a restriction. He looked at Linghu Lan with some disdain and pouted, "Get down quickly. Next time, try a different welcoming posture. I don't like this one."
Linghu Lan: "..." I want to kill him!
Unwilling to listen to the monster's nonsense any longer, she coldly asked, "What are you doing here? Trying to steal something from me?"
"Pah!" The monster spat fiercely. "You stole my things! Give them back to me right now! Where is my cultivation manual? Give it back to me immediately!"
"A cultivation manual?" Linghu Lan was taken aback.
The monster exploded. "Don't tell me you didn't know! When I was fighting those two, my book, a green-covered book, flew right to your feet! Don't pretend you didn't see it! That's my sect's cultivation manual! You're not allowed to look at it! Give it back to me now, and obediently hand over your amethyst, and I'll spare your life! Humph!"
Linghu Lan suddenly remembered the book "The Monster Survival Handbook - 100 Rules You Must Know to Integrate into Modern Society"!
"Are you talking about that book that teaches you how to integrate into modern society?"
"Yes, that's the book! Give it back to me! It must be on you." The monster's red eyes lit up, and he reached out to touch Linghu Lan.
Linghu Lan tensed up; she felt like a fish on a chopping board!
She immediately tried to change the subject: "That book is no good. A lot of the things it says are wrong. If you really want to integrate into human society, following that book will only lead you astray."
The monster paused, then roared in fury, "You really did read that book! I'm going to kill you!"
"Killing me would be too much trouble. I'd have to hide my body, and if I left any clues that revealed my identity, I bet your monster association wouldn't let you off the hook!"
