Chapter 45 Overlord's Daydream (Part 5)



Li Ling'er, naturally beautiful, possessed rosy lips and pearly white teeth, exquisitely beautiful features, and flawless, porcelain-like skin. With such beauty, her high status and great fame were astonishing and attracted countless admirers.

As the only daughter of Li Yan, the mayor of City B, Li Ling'er was pampered and carefully protected by her parents from a young age. This sweet environment fostered Li Ling'er's innocent and naive nature, unaware of the harshness of the world.

In the original owner's memory, Zhao Batian happened to see Li Ling'er being bullied and humiliated by a few hooligans. The righteous young man stepped forward to help, quickly driving away the hooligans and creating a beautiful story of a hero saving a beauty.

City B, the economic, cultural, and political center of Country Z, has a resident population of ten million. If a brick were to fall on someone, nine times out of ten, that person would be either a minor official or a relative or friend of a high-ranking official.

Even a minor official has to serve the prime minister. As the only daughter of Li Yan, the mayor of City B, Li Ling'er's affairs are far from trivial. Before the newspapers even had a proper report the next day, it was already known to many in high society who had favors to Li Yan. The hungry wolves who flocked to her, their eyes gleaming, expressed both pity for Li Ling'er and scorn for her roguish nature.

Good deeds are rewarded. Taking advantage of Li Ling'er's reputation as his savior, Zhao Batian not only became famous throughout B City, but also used his handsome looks to win her heart. Li Ling'er, simple-minded and naive, saw Zhao Batian's extraordinary appearance and talent; it was obvious to her that her pure heart would fall for him.

With Li Ling'er's favor, it's equivalent to having Mayor Li Yan of City B's support. Zhao Batian can easily run rampant in City B. Even if he commits murder or arson, as long as it doesn't become public knowledge, Zhao Batian will at least be locked up for a few days, if not completely unscathed.

The original owner pieced together the events from newspapers and Zhao Batian's gossip. Ji Xiaoxiao repeatedly reviewed the memory of Zhao Batian rescuing the damsel in distress, remembering the time, place, and people clearly. After a hearty meal, Ji Xiaoxiao hid early in the alley where no one usually frequented.

Ji Xiaoxiao waited for two days and two nights.

On the night of the incident, dark clouds covered the sky and a strong wind blew. The pitch-black alley was like a ghostly holiday on the 14th of the seventh lunar month, eerie and terrifying, with faint ghostly howls and wails, just waiting for the foolish person to turn around, extinguish the three flames on their body, and then they would swarm and devour the food.

"Who are you? What do you want? Ah... no... let me go!" A trembling female voice, accompanied by the sound of wind, woke Ji Xiaoxiao from her drowsy sleep.

As the saying goes, with new love comes forgetting old love; with the arrival of the beautiful Li Ling'er, the sleeping god was immediately banished to the cold palace. Ji Xiaoxiao jolted awake, her spirits lifted, and she opened her sparkling eyes, a big smile spreading across her face.

"Don't mess around, my father is Li Yan." Li Ling'er was simple-minded, but not stupid. Knowing that a weak woman with no strength could not deal with five blond thugs, she quickly brought up the famous Mayor of City B, Li Yan.

The thugs had heard of Li Yan's reputation and were tempted to back down, but the die was cast. They had no choice but to go, whether they took five or ten steps. Hesitation was not an option, so they decided to go all in to avoid regret later.

Look at the mayor's daughter, so fair-skinned and beautiful, she's incomparable to the ordinary beauties on the streets. To die beneath a peony is to die a romantic death. Even if she's discovered, her life will have been worthwhile.

Concerned only with their immediate, petty gains, the thugs became even more ruthless and swift after learning Li Ling'er's identity. A short while later, sobbing and cursing could be heard from Li Ling'er.

At the opportune moment, Ji Xiaoxiao made a dazzling appearance.

"Stop! Let that woman go right now, or you'll be sorry!" Ordinary girls often have some beautiful fantasies about princes and princesses, but Ji Xiaoxiao is different. Her beautiful fantasy is to be a great hero who saves the world and is worshipped by everyone.

Just as the excitement was about to begin, a surprise unexpected turn of events extinguished the thugs' enthusiasm, making their spirits wil like leaves under the scorching sun. Turning around, they saw a pretty young woman with a fresh and delicate appearance. They looked at each other and burst into laughter. "Brothers," they exclaimed, "we're in for a treat! We've eaten delicacies, and now we're enjoying some simple fare. Who could be happier than us!"

Listening to them, not only is Li Ling'er a fat sheep in their tiger's mouth, but Ji Xiaoxiao, the hero who stood up for justice, is someone they can subdue with a flick of their fingers.

Ji Xiaoxiao didn't waste any more words. Let's see who's the boss and who's the coward through our skills!

Zhong Xiaohua's body wasn't very malleable, but the "White Lotus Holy Technique" provided a significant boost. Ji Xiaoxiao, with her initial stage of the First Transformation of Evil, was more than capable of dealing with five outwardly strong but inwardly weak thugs. In no time, the five grown men were sprawled on the ground, clutching their bodies and crying out for their parents, tears and snot strewn all around.

Ji Xiaoxiao helped Li Ling'er get dressed. In the strong wind, Li Ling'er's black hair was disheveled and fluttered in the wind. Whether it was from the cold or not, Li Ling'er hugged Ji Xiaoxiao tightly. A loud cry, filled with grievance, poured out.

After Ji Xiaoxiao helped Li Ling'er leave the alley, a tall, burly man appeared dazed, his limbs connected like a puppet, and unknowingly they arrived at the gloomy alley from the grand hotel.

After escorting Li Ling'er back to the Li family home, Ji Xiaoxiao received a warm welcome from Li Ling'er's parents. Li Ling'er didn't have many friends, and since Ji Xiaoxiao had bravely saved her life, Li Ling'er genuinely considered Ji Xiaoxiao a friend. Before long, Ji Xiaoxiao became a frequent visitor to the Li family home.

A month later, seeing that she had already won over Li Ling'er, Ji Xiaoxiao's clever mind began to think about how to seize another great opportunity from Zhao Batian.

Zhao Batian has seven wives on the surface, known as the Seven Fairies. Li Ling'er is one of them, and Situ Yutong, who is also one of the Seven Fairies, is exceptionally capable.
