Li Xunhuan, freed from the restrictions, immediately asked, "Who are you, senior? Why do you do this?"
"You wouldn't know even if I told you!" Li Er said, pouting.
Li Xunhuan ignored Li Er and pulled Yingying to leave. Li Er, however, said, "Do you think I'm just asking casually? I truly intend to take Miss Yingying's life to save Lin Shiyin!"
Li Xunhuan instantly turned back, his blade spirit flowing, and charged at Li Er!
The blade spirit stopped in front of Li Er. Li Er merely flicked his finger, sending Li Xunhuan's blade spirit flying back.
"Miss Yingying, I apologize. Since you've already agreed, I will take your life now!" Li Er said, reaching out to grab her. Yingying didn't resist. Instead, she looked at Li Xunhuan, smiled faintly, and said, "Brother Li, I love you and am willing to give my life for Lin Shiyin. I only hope that Brother Li will not forget me!"
Li Xunhuan immediately wanted to rush over, but, alas, it was the familiar restriction again. Li Xunhuan couldn't move. Li Er chuckled and left with Yingying.
After a while, Li Xunhuan regained his mobility, filled with regret. His eyes turned cold. He closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, then quickly flew towards the city.
At this very moment, Li Er was in another town, with Yingying by his side. "Miss Yingying, won't you have something? The food in the ghost realm is quite interesting!"
Yingying followed Li Er and said, "Senior, weren't you going to take my life to save Lin Shiyin? Let's go then. I really want to see what kind of woman Lin Shiyin is, that Brother Li is so infatuated with!"
"Uh, you don't resent me?" Li Er asked.
Yingying smiled slightly. "I don't resent you. This was my own choice."
"Tsk tsk, do you think this Li Xunhuan is blind? Such a good girl, and he doesn't cherish her, but goes looking for Lin Shiyin?" Li Er sighed.
Yingying immediately glared at Li Er. "My Brother Li is not blind. It must be that Miss Lin Shiyin holds the emotions that my Brother Li cares about!"
"Alright, you're right. Then, since you're going to die soon anyway, money is useless. Hurry up and settle the bill!" Li Er said with twinkling eyes.
Yingying was stunned for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said, "Senior, is it really good for you to do this?"
Li Er shrugged. "I'm really out of money! You're not suggesting I skip out on the bill, are you? Otherwise, we can just run!"
The shopkeeper's expression immediately changed. This guy was going to skip out on the bill? Not only that, but he was saying it right in front of the owner?
"Guest, it's only fifty ghost yuan stones. Looking at your attire, you don't seem like someone without money!" As he spoke, the shopkeeper waved his hand, and several waiters surrounded Li Er and Yingying.
Yingying's face turned completely red. This senior was a bit unreliable!
"I have it!" Yingying had no choice but to take out fifty ghost yuan stones from her storage bag to pay.
Only then did the shopkeeper leave. Li Er directly waved his hand, and Yingying's storage bag flew into Li Er's hand. Li Er rummaged through it and took out the ghost yuan stones, which numbered around three hundred. He pouted. "Miss Yingying, you're quite poor!"
Yingying's face had already turned completely dark red. She snatched back her storage bag. This senior was treating her as less than human, rummaging through a girl's storage bag like that!
"Give me back my ghost yuan stones!" Yingying shouted.
"Heh heh, as I said, you're going to die soon. What do you need ghost yuan stones for? It's better we spend them quickly. You can't take these things with you when you're born, nor when you die!" Li Er said directly.
Yingying was so angry she was speechless. What he said made so much sense that she couldn't refute it!
"By the way, will your Brother Li come to save you?" Li Er asked with a chuckle.
"Hmph!" Yingying snorted, then her expression turned worried again.
Yes, Brother Li would definitely come. But this was her own choice. Moreover, this person before her had unfathomable strength. He could bind Brother Li, who was a Celestial Monarch, with such ease. This person might have the power of a Celestial Emperor!
"Oh my, this Li Xunhuan keeps thinking about Lin Shiyin. Say, should I get rid of him? That would be quite good, wouldn't it? Since you're also going to die, you two could be a pair of destined lovers!" Li Er suddenly said.
Yingying was completely stunned. What was this guy's thought process? But thinking that he wanted to kill Brother Li, she quickly said, "Don't touch Brother Li, or else..."
Li Er looked at Yingying with twinkling eyes. "Or else what?"
"Hmph, or else I'll self-destruct right now, and you won't be able to save Lin Shiyin!" Yingying huffed. Although she didn't know how Li Er planned to save Lin Shiyin, she definitely needed to live until she met Lin Shiyin. So, Yingying immediately threatened him.
"Well, you've misunderstood. Actually, only your essence, energy, and spirit are needed. Please begin your performance, show me your self-destruction! Once it's done, I'll collect it as I go!" Li Er said directly.
Yingying instantly froze. This person was so annoying! She still wanted to see Lin Shiyin before she died, to see what kind of woman made Brother Li so infatuated. Otherwise, she would feel a sense of unwillingness.
"Women, always saying one thing and meaning another!" Li Er tutted.
Yingying was so angry she wanted to bite him!
"Let's go. Considering you're about to die, we'll go eat something good so you can make a proper exit!" Li Er said with a smile.
Yingying, however, kept complaining internally. Eat again? You just ate! Eat again now? Are you a pig!
"Little girl, it's not good to talk like that! I have mind-reading abilities. Would you like to reconsider my earlier suggestion? You can't be in the same bed when you're alive, but you can share the same grave when you're dead. I can help you!" Li Er said.
Yingying snorted, "As if I'd want your help!"
"What a handsome little lady!" At this moment, a young man saw Yingying and burst into laughter. Behind the young man, quite a few people followed.
Seeing these people, Yingying knew their intentions and quickly hid behind Li Er. She had no choice; her cultivation was not enough.
"Kid, not bad. Offer up the girl, and you can get lost!" the young man said arrogantly, not showing any panic. He spoke unhurriedly.
In Fengdu City, the influence of their Nine Heavens Tower was second only to the Great Emperor of Fengdu, which was why this young man could be so brazen.
"By the way, how have you survived until now? Look, there are so many flies!" Li Er asked curiously.
Yingying snorted. Normally, when she was alone, she had to disguise herself. When she was with Li Xunhuan, she had the protection of the great master Li Xunhuan!
"There are too many of these kinds of scenes. Hey, you, you should leave. I won't bother with you!" Li Er waved his hand. Although he said this, a gust of wind had already swept the young man and his companions away.
