“Mmm — this material! This luster!! This sense of technology!!!”
Luo Taozhi held the helmet in her arms, inspecting it incessantly.
Her fingertips repeatedly stroked the smooth shell of the helmet, and the excitement in her eyes was nearly overflowing. She turned and shouted at Xiao Nanchu, who had not yet recovered his senses.
“It’s right, perfectly right! This is exactly the feeling!”
Her delicate little face kept rubbing against the helmet, leaving Xiao Nanchu speechless.
“What’s right? What feeling is so right? What’s there to be so excited about?”
“You don’t know a thing! A giant baby like you, who has enjoyed the benefits of modern technology, will never understand this feeling of mine.”
The young girl didn’t care at all about Xiao Nanchu’s mocking words; her cheek remained pressed tightly against the helmet, which emitted a dark, metallic luster.
What did Xiao Nanchu know?!
Cultivating in the Cultivation World sounded nice, but don’t forget that the environment there was no different from ancient times.
Although those Immortal Cultivators had very long lifespans and high intelligence, did you expect those Golden Core and Nascent Soul old monsters to lead technological development?
Don’t even think about it!
Did they work so hard to reach the Golden Core or Nascent Soul stage just to let lower-level cultivators enjoy themselves?
They cultivated diligently precisely so they could ruthlessly enslave those lower-level cultivators!
Thinking back, even as the esteemed Saintess of her Sect, she had considered developing technology. However, she had immediately dismissed the idea as soon as it crossed her mind.
There were no melodramatic stories about a Sect ancestor coming to stop her or anything like that.
The reason was simple.
It was time-consuming, laborious, and useless.
Besides, she wasn’t the type with particularly high Wisdom Light, so she couldn’t research anything particularly advanced.
Those with high Wisdom Light were all immersed in cultivation techniques, Spiritual Elixirs, and formations, shining in other fields.
The Spiritual Energy technology she had tried to lead as the Saintess had absolutely no obvious progress.
However, before she was struck back by the lightning tribulation, there seemed to be an introductory disciple with very high Wisdom Light who was quite interested in this…
But it was useless now. Everything that happened afterward had nothing to do with her.
Regardless, when she was there, there were absolutely no entertaining or convenient things. It was a purely ancient aesthetic!
Did he understand the significance of the first lesson for a group of Qi Refining disciples — carrying water up from the foot of the mountain?
You might think it was the Sect’s test of one’s character, but in reality, it was purely because the big shots above found their stench of sweat unsightly.
Xiao Nanchu had never experienced it, so he talked big. Had he ever washed clothes for more than 1,000 people or experienced a communal bed for 100 people?!
He knew nothing!
“That’s right, I’m a giant baby who has enjoyed the benefits of modern technology. Now this giant baby is going to ask — Great Fairy Luo, when are you going to release my furniture for me?”
Indeed.
After the two of them bought the helmet Luo Taozhi wanted, they came to this high-rise luxury apartment in the city center provided by Xiao’s Mother.
As a result, as soon as they entered the door…
Luo Taozhi couldn’t wait to hold the helmet in her hands and fondle it vigorously.
Although this house was exquisitely decorated by Xiao’s Mother, Xiao Nanchu’s previous belongings also needed to be taken out!
But this girl, Luo Taozhi, seemed to have forgotten, showing no sign of intending to take his things out for him.
“Hurry up! I spent money on those things too!”
“What’s the rush…” Luo Taozhi’s eyes were currently full of the helmet and her phone; she had long since tossed Xiao Nanchu’s words to the back of her mind.
“Do you still want to eat?!! The ingredients are still in the refrigerator!!”
Seeing that Luo Taozhi seemed to not be listening to him at all, Xiao Nanchu was truly at a loss.
He had been busy all morning, and it was almost noon. Wasn’t this girl hungry?
Even though this house was well-furnished, there was definitely nothing to eat in the refrigerator.
And since the two of them hadn’t bought anything on the way back, the only food was in Xiao Nanchu’s previous refrigerator.
“What is there to eat? I stopped needing to — huh?!” Halfway through her sentence, Luo Taozhi seemed to remember something and immediately let go of the helmet in her hands.
She scurried over to Xiao Nanchu’s side, her peach blossom eyes staring at him waterily.
“What are we eating? Are we eating fried chicken? I want to eat fried chicken!”
“What fried chicken? I still have vegetables in my fridge. I’m telling you, hurry up and take my stuff out…”
“What? No fried chicken…” Hearing there was no fried chicken, those watery peach blossom eyes immediately dimmed. She let out a very disappointed “oh” and then waved her hand casually.
A pile of things appeared out of thin air in the middle of the living room.
“You… arrange them a bit better for me!”
Xiao Nanchu laughed out of frustration.
This girl was definitely doing it on purpose!
“Once you arrange them, I’ll order takeout immediately.”
“Really?!” Hearing Xiao Nanchu’s words, Luo Taozhi instantly perked up.
“Where do you want them?”
As she spoke, the pile of things in the living room floated up into the air behind her. Her peach blossom eyes were wide and round as she excitedly waited for Xiao Nanchu’s next instruction.
“Put this here.”
“As for the refrigerator… let’s put it here for now. I’ll take the things out, and then you can put it back.”
“This one should…”
Xiao Nanchu had never realized that moving could be such a simple matter.
Although he had only moved once before, he had deeply felt the exhaustion of moving that time.
But this time was different with Luo Taozhi around.
Where to move what, what should disappear, what was in the way and needed to be shifted — everything was just a matter of a single sentence!
Furthermore, there wasn’t a speck of dust; it had all been conveniently Purified by Luo Taozhi!
Was Cultivation really such a convenient thing?
As long as Xiao Nanchu suggested it, Luo Taozhi could basically do it!
Immortal Cultivators were truly too perfect at these small matters.
However, at this moment, Xiao Nanchu also realized something.
Luo Taozhi actually didn’t need to eat, right?
He had gone through too much last night and fell asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow.
Neither he nor that girl had eaten a single bite. He was about to starve to death, yet that girl hadn’t made a sound.
She even had the energy to rub against that helmet…
“Let me ask you, have you achieved Inedia, just like in the novels?”
“Hmm?” Luo Taozhi, who was diligently acting as a tool behind Xiao Nanchu, couldn’t help but be stunned when she heard his words.
It was true that she had achieved Inedia a long time ago. After all, the food in the Cultivation World was deathly unpalatable. The meat of demon beasts wasn’t at all the delicacy described in novels.
Every single piece of meat was incredibly tough and fishy!
As for those high-level demon beasts, they could all speak and looked no different from humans, so she hadn’t tried eating them.
Therefore, Inedia was naturally the most important thing. Spiritual Energy was a very versatile thing.
Who would eat that horribly unpalatable meat boiled in plain water when they could rely on Spiritual Energy to fill their stomachs?
Although rice was indeed good after being nourished by Spiritual Energy, eating only rice… Forget it. She wasn’t some Rice Immortal.
It was better not to eat at all.
So, what did Xiao Nanchu mean by asking her this now?
‘Is he trying to cheat me out of my fried chicken?!’
