"You've killed all the people, who will drive the carriage?" Ling Yurou said.
"If I don't get rid of him, he will get you pregnant." Wang Xiaohai explained.
"You... little rascal!" Ling Yurou's face flushed red as she suddenly stared at Wang Xiaohai intently. "You're so young, you must still be a virgin. Do you want me to teach you?"
"...No need." Wang Xiaohai turned his head. He was just a big talker, but he would be helpless if he really met a woman who was thicker-skinned than him.
Ling Yurou giggled. She discovered Wang Xiaohai’s weakness - his emotional intelligence was too low.
When Wang Xiaohai took the genetic test, the only thing he failed was his emotions.
"The carriage is too slow, there's no need to drive. We're already out of the city, so I'll take you to the neighboring country." Wang Xiaohai thought of a way. He originally rented the carriage just to get out of the city.
"You can fly, but you can't hold my hand, it's almost broken." Ling Yurou said, "I'm an ordinary person, how can I withstand such a strong pull!" Her shoulder still hurts slightly.
"If not holding hands, where else can we hold hands?" Wang Xiaohai didn't understand.
"You can carry me."
"How can that be possible?"
"I'm a woman, I'm not afraid, so why are you afraid?"
"This is too intimate. I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself and do something extremely excessive. I can't resist temptation." Wang Xiaohai looked at the carriage and suddenly had an idea. He reached out and tore off all the curtains of the carriage, then wrapped Yu Rou up with the cloth like a dumpling and carried her on his shoulders.
"Ah—what are you doing!" Ling Yurou hit Wang Xiaohai with her hands.
"I'll take you flying!" Wang Xiaohai carried Ling Yurou, who was wrapped in layers of clothes, used the Qi Control Technique, flew into the sky, and flew in a random direction.
"Wait, don't fly around randomly. There are several dangerous countries around here." Ling Yurou raised her head and warned, "There's a country nearby that's hostile to Cotton Country. I suggest you take me there."
"Which country and direction?" Wang Xiaohai hovered in the air.
"Anti-cotton country, southeast."
"Anti-Cotton Country, such a strange name, it sounds like the enemy of Cotton Country!" Wang Xiaohai was shocked when he heard the name. There is a country named like this, is the emperor of Anti-Cotton Country an idiot?
"There's a story behind this," Ling Yurou said. "You fly first, and I can tell you on the way."
Wang Xiaohai carried Ling Yurou and flew upwards, above the clouds, until people on the ground could no longer see them.
"The Anti-Cotton Kingdom was originally called the Sheep Kingdom. As the name suggests, its economy relied on sheep farming. However, after the Cotton Kingdom developed, their woolen clothing became difficult to sell, and ranches were closed one after another. Furthermore, their emperor at the time was killed by Cotton Kingdom's tribute while personally leading an expedition. The crown prince, upon ascending to the throne, was furious and immediately changed the country's name to the Anti-Cotton Kingdom, implying that the country was the Cotton Kingdom's eternal enemy and would not be defeated until it was destroyed!"
"If the worshippers can act at will, then what's the point of having an army?" Wang Xiaohai said, "Even an army of ten million regular warriors is no match for a single Martial Saint."
"Martial Saint? You mean the awakened strongman. When one side is wantonly slaughtering the other side's civilians, the other side's awakened strongman can take action." Ling Yurou explained.
"Can I take action?" Wang Xiaohai understood the meaning of this word, "Do you mean that awakened strong people also have to abide by certain rules?" He always thought that the strong people could run rampant on this planet and do whatever they wanted.
"Indeed, weren't you born here?" Ling Yurou said. "People in our world, once they reach a certain level of power and status, will learn that there's an organization larger than a nation called the Awakening Federation. All awakened individuals on the continent must join this organization, or they'll be considered heretics and eliminated."
"Oh, there is such an organization. Does that mean all its members must abide by the organization's rules?" Wang Xiaohai said.
"Of course. I heard that the president is the strongest person on the continent. He has lived for more than a thousand years and is extremely terrifying." Ling Yurou said.
"Over a thousand years? A Martial Saint... No, aren't awakened warriors only around five hundred years old?" Wang Xiaohai asked, "How could this guild leader live so long?"
"I don't know the reason either. I wish I knew." Ling Yurou's tone was full of longing. "If I live this long, I want to have an ageless face. Otherwise, I wouldn't want to live with wrinkles all over my face even if I were given ten thousand years!"
Wang Xiaohai thought that women’s minds were really strange. Could it be that appearance was more important than life in their eyes?
Because he was carrying a person, Wang Xiaohai could not fly very fast, and it took him almost an hour to reach the edge of the border.
“Where are you going!”
When Wang Xiaohai was falling from the clouds, a voice sounded from behind him, "Little thief, where are you going to escape!" The voice was as loud as thunder, and Yu Rou was so scared that her body trembled.
Wang Xiaohai descended quickly. Below him was a valley with strange rocks and a rugged mountain road. He put Ling Yurou next to a rock, turned around and flew up to meet the person who was chasing him.
The pursuer was an old man with gray hair, a withered face, withered skin and skinny bones. He was in his twilight years and looked like he would die at any moment.
"Who are you?" Wang Xiaohai stopped in the air and asked from a distance of three hundred meters.
"The tribute from the Cotton Country, Ding Sishui." The old man also stopped flying. "If you return the stolen treasury silver, I will let you go, and I will also let you take the woman in the valley below." The old man narrowed his eyes and stared at Wang Xiaohai. He heard about Wang Xiaohai's strength from the surviving guard commander, that is, he was in the Golden Martial Realm and had not yet awakened. However, he had never heard of an unawakened person being able to fly in the air. This kid is weird!
"I'm sorry, I've already spent all the money in the treasury and can't pay you back," Wang Xiaohai said. "You have so much money anyway, you won't mind losing it this time. You can slowly replenish the treasury over the next few years."
