There was no good solution to the ancient god's problem in the short term, so everyone turned their attention to Li Changzhou.
"How is it?" Yaochi asked.
Her silky eyes gazed at him curiously, it was hard to tell whether it was because her aura had changed after visualizing the black mist, or simply because Li Changzhou now looked like he was seven or eight years old.
Li Changzhou relayed the message about the [Black Mist] to the three of them, while inwardly marveling at how S-level teleportation could truly enhance a player's happiness. If it were available for purchase, it would probably be a million times more popular than a dishwasher.
The three fell silent, carefully perusing the memories sent by Li Changzhou.
"Little brother—what I mean is, your body is small, so can the Honey Pot World devour it? Devour it and then give it to me!" Li Qianxia said.
"You're beautiful, and you think beautifully too," the young man replied with a smile.
"Qinglan~"
“That’s my and your brother’s property. We’re already being kind by letting you live there,” the sister-in-law said even more ruthlessly.
Li Qianxia looked pitifully at Yaochi.
This is Yaochi's future property, so she said, "Don't come here to humiliate yourself."
"Brother~ They bullied me!" Li Qianxia returned to her brother's arms... no, she hugged Li Changzhou, pressing her face against his. "Damn it, his face is even more tender than mine!"
After arguing for a while, Li Qianxia said, "This is at least S-level, right?"
“Perhaps it’s more than S-rank.” Yaochi pondered, “After ‘8’ comes ‘…’, and the evaluation is ‘unable to evaluate’. This is the first time I’ve seen such an introduction.”
Yang Qinglan took out a bottle of pills from her storage bag. The bottle, made from the corpse of the Frost Queen, shone with a diamond-like brilliance in the sunlight.
“I was going to give this to you,” she handed the pill to Li Changzhou, “but now you can only cultivate by devouring. Give it a try.”
When Li Changzhou took the medicine bottle, she added, "Don't swallow the bottle."
...Li Changzhou was just about to do that.
He poured the pill into his palm. The pill was about the size of his little fingernail and was entirely jade-colored—this was the mark of the Little Jade Cauldron, but only finished pills had this mark. The Little Jade Cauldron did not recognize things like vegetable pills (in fact, refining these kinds of pills did not require the use of the Little Jade Cauldron's core power, so they were not stained with jade color).
Black mist overflowed from his palm, staining the pill. When the black mist disappeared, the pill was gone.
Making something disappear suddenly is something any player can do, but for some reason, even a celestial being like Yaochi felt uneasy about this kind of disappearance.
"How was the result?" Yang Qinglan asked.
"It's grown a little bit." Li Changzhou gestured to a spot about the size of his little fingernail.
"It's good that it works." Yaochi smiled. "Later, let me go out and I'll go get some unused props for you."
"No need. The universe is vast and boundless, why would I be afraid of not having enough material to improve? I'll go to Jupiter first... never mind, I'll leave it for now, I'll go to the Great Wall of Divine Will and try it out on the hydrogen planet where I replenished my energy last time."
As he spoke, Li Changzhou was about to teleport away. Without the watchful eye of the ancient god, restoring his strength was the top priority.
"Wait!" Yaochi called out to him, slightly reproachfully, "I didn't go out just for you. Things must have gotten chaotic outside these past three days. I'm going to check on things."
They also need to protect the Zhao family.
With the appearance of the immortal, the benefits will inevitably be redistributed. The Zhao family previously relied on her to expand their wealth, and this time there will inevitably be some blind fools who want the Zhao family to give it back.
Yaochi was already getting impatient with these mundane things, which is why she started training her cousin.
Once her cousin becomes an immortal, she will immediately sever ties with the Zhao family and will never associate with them again unless there is a life-or-death crisis.
Upon hearing Yaochi mention the outside world, Li Changzhou temporarily put aside the matter of restoring his strength.
“This is troublesome,” he said.
Each of the immortals possesses the power to overturn mountains and seas. Once they start fighting, every move they make is like a thermonuclear bomb. Earth, which is left over as scrap, may be able to barely withstand it, but the humans living on it will face annihilation.
During the Immortal Tribulation, the palm strike from the [Divine Body] was the best proof; the entire city of Egypt disappeared and turned into a great lake.
The clash between those with supernatural powers has always been the most difficult problem to handle in the world. During the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods, the world was almost shattered simply because the sages were enraged.
Even Guanyin (the Bodhisattva of Compassion) is troubled by this problem.
Yaochi thought for a moment, then looked at Li Changzhou and said, "Should we establish a rule, invite all the immortals over, and have them sign a contract prohibiting them from fighting on Earth?"
It's so troublesome... and thankless work.
Li Changzhou felt that he only needed to defend Mingcheng and the lunar base—the Xia Kingdom's territory outside Mingcheng was naturally left to the Special Operations Bureau.
"I am a giant of light, and I never interfere with human choices," he said.
Li Qianxia thoughtfully explained this joke to the two stunning beauties.
Yang Qinglan just smiled when she heard that.
Yaochi rolled her eyes at Li Changzhou after hearing this: "So, in the end, you're just afraid of trouble?"
She then changed the subject, saying, "Forget it, I'm too lazy to care anyway. Some things you only regret after they happen. It will be much easier for us to step in and finalize the agreement once they've destroyed most of the earth."
"Wouldn't it be bad if it was mostly destroyed?" Li Qianxia said cautiously.
“These things are for the big shots to worry about,” Li Changzhou waved his hand. “We small players who have been targeted by the ancient gods should think about how to save our lives first.”
This is the most urgent matter, the one that's right on our lips.
If they die, for a short period of time, no one will be able to suppress these "smuggled" immortals on Earth.
“That makes sense. Qianxia and Qinglan’s problems are the most important right now.” Yaochi nodded. “However, we can’t just leave things outside unattended. I’ll go kill a second-class immortal to bring these people to their senses.”
