Start a mysterious island

Chapter 409: Unable to empathize with the natives of another world (two chapters in one)

The competition between Lin Li and Li Qian came to an end when Li Qian admitted defeat.

Although Li Qian was completely defeated in this sparring match, she did not feel depressed at all. Instead, she was happy because she had found an opponent who could show no mercy to her during the sparring session.

She raised her hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead and said to Lin Li who was getting ready to get off the ring.

Mr. Lin, wait a few days and let's find time to have another game.

Okay! Lin Li thought to himself. We all met by chance. After today, it will most likely be difficult to meet again, so he agreed casually.

When Li Qian saw Lin Li agreeing, a bright smile appeared on her handsome face, and then she and Lin Li got off the ring together.

Cousin, are you okay? Zhu Xinru saw the two people coming down from the ring and immediately walked forward. She looked at Li Qian with two panda eyes and asked with concern.

Li Qian, who was full of heroic spirit, saw Zhu Xinru asking her questions with concern on her face. She responded with a big smile, I'm fine!

Zhu Xinru looked at Li Qian with two panda eyes and thought to herself, how can this be better?

hiss……

Suddenly, Li Qian took a breath of air, then raised her hands, rubbing her left arm for a while and her right arm for a while.

When Zhu Xinru saw this, she immediately reached out and grabbed one of Li Qian's arms, and then rolled up the other person's sleeves on her arm.

As her sleeves were rolled up, Zhu Xinru immediately saw bruises and bruises on Li Qian's fair and delicate arms.

Ah, Xinru, why are you acting like this in front of everyone! Let go of my hand quickly. Li Qian gritted her teeth in pain because of Zhu Xinru's action of rolling up her sleeves, and the wound was touched.

Zhu Xinru looked at Li Qian who was holding on, and said helplessly, Cousin, you are so injured, where can you get better?

“When practitioners compete with each other, it is inevitable to get injured.

And it's just a few bruises. I'll go back and apply some blood-removing ointment and sleep. Li Qian said without caring.

Lin Li, who was standing aside, looked at the interaction between the two cousins ​​and raised his hand to touch his nose with some embarrassment. After all, Li Qian's injuries were all caused by him.

Let me treat you! Li Qian wanted to pull back her grabbed arm, but Zhu Xinru held on to it with her left hand and said.

As soon as she finished speaking, she stretched out her right hand and mobilized the spiritual energy in her Dantian. Her five fingers, as slender as onions, merged together, and a light golden aura appeared in the center of her white palm.

The healing ability activates.

Groups of small white light balls immediately appeared in the palm of Zhu Xinru's palm.

These small light balls were only the size of pigeon eggs. After they condensed and formed, they immediately left Zhu Xinru's palm, flew towards Li Qian, and landed on her slender arms covered with bruises.

When these white light balls the size of pigeon eggs fall on the injured location, they immediately blend into the wound.

More than ten seconds later, Li Qian's slender arms covered with bruises were greatly improved. The bruises melted away. Although the bruises did not disappear, the pain was reduced by 70%.

Following the same instructions, Zhu Xinru repeated the same steps and treated all the injured areas on Li Qian's body.

It doesn't hurt anymore, thank you! Li Qian moved her arms with the most bruises, and then raised her hand to touch her eye sockets. The pain that had made her grimace before was no longer there.

Why do I feel like these people are looking at me strangely... Lin Li glanced at the servants and maids around him, and found that these people were looking at him with surprise and confusion.

If he knew that Li Qian was the daughter of the lord of Dongwu City, he would have known why these servants and maids looked at him like this.

In this world, someone who dares to fight a city lord's daughter without mercy, leaving bruises all over her body, is something that ordinary people would not dare to imagine.

But now, they actually witnessed the whole process with their own eyes.

I'm so hungry! Let's go for a walk... Li Qian said, then she turned to look at Lin Li, Mr. Lin, let me tell you! My cousin's chef is very good at cooking. Don’t be polite later, open it up and eat it.”

No one would dislike such a beautiful girl with a cheerful and straightforward personality. Lin Li smiled and nodded, looking forward to the lunch later.

Then, he opened his mouth and said to Li Qian, You can just call me by my name! Mr. Lin calls me Mr. Lin. It sounds weird to me...

Okay, then you can just call me by my name! We will be friends from now on. Li Qian said with a smile.

Yes. Lin Li nodded. At this time, he found that the eyes around him turned to envy.

Not long after they met, he developed a relationship with the city lord's daughter. If word of this spread, anyone would inevitably feel envious.

But at this moment, as the object of envy, Lin Li was completely unaware of this matter.

Of course, even if he later found out that Li Qian was the daughter of the lord of Dongwu City, he would only be slightly surprised and it would not make him think too much.

After all, he is not a native of this world and cannot empathize with it.

Zhu Xinru looked at Li Qian and Lin Li who were chatting and laughing happily, a strange look flashed in her eyes, as if she wanted to say something, but when the words came to her lips, she swallowed them back.

Just as the group was about to leave the practice ground and go to have lunch, something in He Manyu's pocket suddenly vibrated, so she reached into her pocket and took out a very small and exquisite metal token.

The surface of the metal token is engraved with beautiful patterns, with a big 李 character in the middle.

At this moment, this small and exquisite metal token stopped vibrating, but its surface would flash with light golden light every few seconds, and spiritual energy fluctuations would emanate from it.

Obviously, this small and exquisite metal token is a spiritual weapon, but I don't know what its specific function is.

Lin Li looked at He Manyu, his eyes falling on the metal token in her hand. After a few seconds, the other party put the metal token back into his pocket, and then turned to look at Li Qian.

Miss.

Aunt Yu, what's wrong? Li Qian asked.

My wife sent a message saying that she has something to tell us and that we should go back immediately. He Manyu said.

Mom, didn't she tell you what happened?

No.

Okay! Li Qian nodded, and then said to Zhu Xinru and Lin Li, I have something to go back to, so I can't have lunch with you. I'll come visit you again when I'm free.

Well, go back quickly! Don't keep your aunt waiting for a long time. Zhu Xinru said.

Afterwards, Li Qian and He Manyu left the Zhu Mansion quickly. They asked their servants to bring their two horses, mounted them, and rode towards the City Lord's Mansion at high speed.

Mr. Lin, after the fierce fight just now, you must be very hungry. Let's go have a meal! After the two of them left, Zhu Xinru invited Lin Li to go to the banquet place at home for dinner.

It was finally time to have lunch... Lin Li, whose stomach was already growling with hunger, nodded, and then followed Zhu Xinru out of the practice ground.

…………

City Lord's Mansion.

Li Qian, who hurried back home, felt numb all over after seeing her mother.

It turned out that her mother, Zhao Xin, said she had something to do and asked her to go home. Unexpectedly, what she wanted to say was not a big deal at all, she just asked her to come back and drink chicken soup.

Mom, can you stop being like this! It's just a chicken soup. It's so mysterious. I thought there was something important, so you were anxious to get me back!

Zhao Xin, the wife of the city lord of Dongwu City, with her glossy black hair tied up high, plump figure, and graceful temperament, had a look of surprise on her face. She quickly stood up from her chair, came to her daughter, and asked hurriedly.

What happened to your eyes? Who gave you such a blow?

Oh, it's a small matter! Li Qian said nonchalantly.

He Manyu, what's going on? Seeing that her daughter didn't explain to herself, Zhao Xin turned her head to look at He Manyu standing aside and asked with a serious face.

Madam, the thing is like this, just now the lady went to Zhu's Mansion... He Manyu explained in detail what happened in Zhu's Mansion.

... After Zhao Xin heard this, she immediately fell silent. She was surprised that someone dared to beat her daughter up, and she was also surprised that the other person was about the same age as her daughter, but had better cultivation than her daughter. for.

His daughter inherited her husband's talent for cultivation and was one of the few cultivation geniuses in Dongwu City.

Now that he is defeated so easily by the opponent, it is conceivable that his cultivation talent must be above his own daughter.

As the wife of the lord of a city, her mind is not far off. Now that she knows that her daughter was injured due to sparring, she has nothing to say.

He saved his niece and defeated his daughter easily. Such a young man with excellent cultivation talent is the talent that his husband needs, so...

Li Qian, go and ask your new friend later. If he is willing, the City Lord's Mansion can arrange an errand for him.

Li Qian heard this and immediately said, Xinru said that Lin Li is a traveler who has traveled around the world. After he finishes handling the matters at hand, he will leave Dongwu City...

Silly girl, people's hearts are fickle. He said he is a traveler who has traveled around the world. Will he be a traveler all his life?

Even if you ask him now and say that our house can arrange an errand for him, he will still say that he wants to continue traveling, which is fine.

When the day comes when he no longer wants to travel and wants to find a place to settle down, maybe he will return to Dongwu City because you told him that you can arrange an errand for him.

Among his peers, he can easily defeat you, and one can imagine his talent in cultivation.

Even if we fail to successfully recruit such a talent now, we may have unexpected gains in the future if we establish a relationship with him. Zhao Xin taught her daughter earnestly.

Although Li Qian has a carefree and straightforward personality, she is not stupid, she is very smart!

After hearing what her mother said, she nodded understandingly and decided to tell Lin Li about her appointment in the City Lord's Mansion next time she saw him.

Okay, let's not talk about him anymore. Come and drink the soup. I stewed this soup with my own hands. It took a long time.

Seeing that her daughter had listened to her words, Zhao Xin smiled happily and then asked her to sit down.

Reaching out to open the lid of the casserole on the table, a pot of fragrant chicken soup appeared in front of Li Qian. The alluring aroma wafted from the casserole in front of her, making people salivate immediately after smelling it.

Gululu...

The fierce battle just now consumed a lot of money, and she hadn't eaten lunch yet. Looking at the tempting chicken soup in front of her, Li Qian picked up the chopsticks on the table and reached out to pick up the chicken in the pot.

I'll serve it for you. Zhao Xin saw her daughter's eager look and said as she picked up a bowl to serve her daughter chicken soup.

call……

Li Qian took a large bowl of chicken soup from her mother. She first blew a few breaths into the chicken soup in the bowl, and then tasted the soup.

How is the taste?

It tastes good, Li Qian said, then she picked up a piece of chicken and ate it with relish.

Zhao Xin saw her daughter eating deliciously, with a loving smile on her face.

Huh? After eating a few large pieces of chicken and drinking a few mouthfuls of chicken soup, Li Qian suddenly noticed a stream of psychic energy appearing in her body.

These spiritual energies that appeared out of thin air quickly replenished the spiritual energy in her Dantian that had been nearly depleted just now due to her sparring with Lin Li.

Zhao Xin noticed a look of confusion on her daughter's face, and she explained with a smile, The chicken that is making the soup is a colorful flying-feathered chicken and a strange beast, with some peak second-level cultivation.

No wonder! I just ate a few pieces of meat and drank a few mouthfuls of soup, and I felt that several strands of spiritual energy appeared in my body out of thin air. Li Qian said.

The stronger the alien beasts wandering in the wild, the more spiritual energy their bodies contain. When humans kill them and eat their meat, they can obtain the spiritual energy contained in the meat for their own use.

Where's my brother? Are you asking him to come and eat together? After finishing a bowl of chicken soup, Li Qian asked when she saw her mother serving her another chicken soup.

He's not at home. I've left a portion for him. Eat it quickly! It won't taste as good if it's cooled... Zhao Xin said, putting a large bowl of chicken soup on her daughter's bed. before.

Oh. Li Qian nodded, and then continued to eat meat and soup.

After a while, Li Qian ate up all the chicken soup in a large casserole. She burped in an unladylike manner, and then patted her belly.

I'm so full, Mom, I'm going to take a shower.

Go!

Li Qian stood up and left the restaurant. At this time, He Manyu did not leave with her.

When only Zhao Xin and He Manyu were left in the living room, Zhao Xin asked He Manyu.

What do you think of the young man who competed with Xiaoqian?

Madam, that young man is very strong. He Manyu said.

Extremely strong? Over the years, no one among the younger generation in Dongwu City has been rated like you. Zhao Xin said in surprise.
