"Takeout? What's that?"
Li Sushang murmured softly in a volume only she could hear.
"Takeout, you know..."
"Oh, so it's a summoning."
Li Sushang walked down the street, looking left and right, her eyes dazzled by the sights. The architectural style and cultural atmosphere here gave her a sense of familiarity and warmth.
Therefore, there is no sense of loneliness from sleeping for five hundred years, witnessing the vicissitudes of life and the changes of the world.
"These things feel weird."
Li Sushang crossed her arms and spoke with emotion.
She is actually quite quick to accept new things, but things that look familiar on the outside but are completely different on the inside, such as the silk ribbons floating overhead.
Li Sushang naturally recognized Lingluo, but the Lingluo above was transparent and illusory; Yuehen called it a holographic billboard.
A fairy, radiant with rainbow light, is smiling as she holds a bowl of Poria cocos cake. The bottom of the bowl bears the inscription in small seal script: "[Made using ancient methods, enhanced with gene-based preservation technology, shelf life 300 years.]"
Li Sushang could understand it, yet she couldn't.
She had a more direct and profound understanding of her journey through time to another world.
"Moonlight, where do we go next?"
Is there anything you want to buy? Or anything you want to do? You've finally arrived in another world, don't you want to have some fun? My treat!
The moon's shadow is light and graceful, and she smiles sweetly.
"Okay, then I won't be polite."
Li Sushang responded with a carefree laugh.
A chivalrous woman who has roamed the martial world since childhood, she has always been straightforward and unpretentious. If you treat me this time, I'll treat you next time.
Moreover, her relationship with Yuehen was more than just friendship; she was another 'self'.
Li Sushang felt as if she had gained a close twin sister.
"Let's buy some food first, I'm feeling a bit hungry."
Okay, watch carefully, here's how I buy things.
Yuehen took control of the body, found a decent-looking stall nearby, and took out the phone that Qiong had prepared earlier from her spatial equipment.
He handed the cake to Li Sushang to pay with her mobile credit. Then, as he turned around, Yuehen had a steaming hot cake in his hand.
Have you learned it yet?
Moonmark has activated auto-battle again.
"Is that all? That's so convenient! With a mobile phone, I don't have to carry heavy cash when I go out, and it also saves me from being targeted by thieves. Brilliant!"
Li Sushang chuckled as she fiddled with the novel object in her hand.
Try the food here and see if it suits your taste.
Li Sushang's pale lips brushed against the oil paper, her white teeth biting into the pastry, her eyelashes fluttering slightly as she let out a cry of delight and surprise.
Ah! This taste... it's taro cake!
"I never thought there were taro cakes in this world. After so many years, although they don't taste exactly the same as the ones I had when I was a child, they are still very close."
Biting into a taro cake, her brown twin ponytails swayed slightly with the girl's steps.
[When I was a child?]
"Yes, back then, when Master came back from the market early in the morning, he would buy a few taro cakes."
A hint of reminiscence appeared on Li Sushang's pretty face.
Your mentor treats you very well.
Even the moon-like moon could taste the taro cake; it was indeed quite delicious.
"what!?"
Li Sushang lowered her eyelids, gave a rather speechless chuckle, and shook her head:
"No, Master eats it herself."
【Um? 】
"Oh, I was only six years old then. My master was slowly eating taro cakes, and she said, cough cough..."
The girl coughed twice and imitated the words vividly: "Su Chang, you can only eat after you finish practicing."
“But Master ate the last piece, and I haven’t finished the number she set.”
Li Sushang spread her hands: "But Master patted the crumbs on his hands and became even happier, saying, 'Sushang, you're so slow.'"
The incredibly lifelike imitation made Yuehen chuckle softly.
"Oh, Master is really going too far... Don't laugh."
"I was pretty good too. Looking back now, I'm amazed that I didn't cry when my master made me cry. But when it comes to sword practice, I haven't cried since I was three years old."
Li Sushang proudly patted the large pillow.
That's really impressive.
She started practicing swordsmanship at the age of three!
"Hehe, but I made up my mind early that morning that I would ignore her no matter what day it was, whether it was noon or evening."
Li Sushang revealed a cute smile: "Master is also competing with me. Starting from Chenshi (7-9 AM), she seemed to be calmly peeling oranges, but she was actually secretly watching me."
"Ha! In the end, Master couldn't resist anymore. She said, 'Su Chang, let me teach you how to make orange lanterns. When it's done, I'll take you to the market to watch a play and release lanterns, okay?'"
"After making the orange lanterns, my master took me to the largest market in the northern desert. We listened to a play for a while and then bought a lot of taro cakes."
Li Sushang talked on and on about her childhood, while Yuehen listened quietly, occasionally interjecting. Their already close relationship grew even closer.
Since that's the case, and we've already eaten taro cakes, how about we go see a traditional opera?
Moonmark suggested.
"Hey, is there a theatrical troupe here too?"
Li Sushang paused slightly.
Of course there are, but I'm not familiar with this area either...
Before Yuehen could finish speaking, Li Sushang puffed out her chest and said, "That's easy. There are so many people here, just ask anyone."
【Forehead……】
Yuehen wanted to say that there was a mobile phone navigation, so Li Sushang walked towards the counter clerk standing outside the store.
Upon seeing the brown-haired girl approaching, the woman at the counter, dressed in a white shirt with a distinctly fairy-tale style, immediately smiled.
"Little sister, would you like to try our newest face mask?"
"Steamed buns?"
Li Sushang was stunned, and muttered to herself, "It's all noodles and steamed buns, but there's not even any meat filling. What kind of taste can it possibly have?"
"Thanks, I just ate and I'm not hungry yet. Excuse me, where is a stage around here?"
The saleswoman slowly typed a question mark.
What does not feeling hungry have to do with face masks?
A little confused, she still kindly gave Li Sushang directions: "It's in that direction, turn left after passing Wanxiang Street and go to Jiuqufang... It's in the place with lots of people at the beginning of Danxia Lane."
Li Sushang politely performed a traditional Jianghu salute, thanked them again, and then turned to leave.
"See, it's very simple."
The most important thing when venturing into the world is to be able to speak openly and confidently.
Can you remember this?
Yuehen has no sense of direction; he can't leave the house without his phone's GPS.
"Of course, even if you can't find it, you can always ask again."
With her cloud-patterned soft boots lightly touching the bluestone slabs, Li Sushang demonstrated what true agility looked like.
As she passed a roadside stall, the owner bumped into it while busy with his work. Just as he was about to hook the jade pendant around her waist, she nimbly twisted her body and even helped a nearby vendor straighten a jar of pickled sauce that was about to tip over.
[Great positioning!]
This movement technique is enough for Yuehen to learn for a while.
As it turned out, Li Sushang did not inherit Yuehen's terrible sense of direction from sharing a body with him; she quickly found her destination by following the directions given by the shop assistant.
"Danxia Lane... this should be it. There are quite a lot of people here, but where's the opera troupe? I don't see any opera troupe."
Li Sushang stood on tiptoe to look around, but still couldn't see anything. She increased the pressure on her feet and nimbly leaped to the rooftop.
The illusionary performances here might be slightly different from the operas you're familiar with... Hmm?
Just as Yuehen was about to explain to Li Sushang, she suddenly saw a commotion coming from afar, and the crowd on the street gradually became chaotic.
Li Sushang immediately turned her head and looked up.
"That is!?"
A delicate, purple-haired little girl with tender dragon horns on her head, a dragon tail, and a gourd hanging from her waist, ran wildly, fiddling with her chubby little legs.
"dragon?"
As a native of China, Li Sushang immediately recognized the little girl and widened her eyes in surprise.
There are dragons here?
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"
Excuse me! Excuse me!
The little girl with purple hair had a tense face, as if she was using all her strength to run away, leaving a trail of smoke behind her as a group of burly men chased after her.
Li Sushang's brows furrowed instantly.
As the eldest disciple of the Supreme Freedom Sect, she travels far and wide, upholding justice and never tolerates those who bully the weak.
Moreover, this happened in public.
Without much thought, Li Sushang pushed off with her feet and jumped.
【etc!】
The sudden voice in her mind made Li Sushang's ankle twitch.
"what happened?"
[She actually...!?]
Li Sushang could hear the hesitation in Yuehen's tone, but after a sudden two-second silence, it took a 180-degree turn.
She needs help right now, let's go save her!
"...?"
Li Sushang blinked, looking somewhat puzzled.
But now was not the time to pry; she leaped toward the little girl who was being surrounded.

Chapter 244 The Imprisoned Dragon Clan Saintess
The moment Yuehen heard the purple-haired little girl's voice, he knew who she was.
Like you, UFO!
Ahem... Bai Lu, the current Dragon Lord of Luofu, is an extremely famous doctor in Luofu, known for her ability to cure all diseases with her medicine. She is also known as the Dragon Girl Who Carries Medicine.
From the fan-made videos, Yuehen remembers that the little guy was often chased.
It wasn't that they were being chased, but rather that they had secretly escaped from the Dan Ding Si and were then pursued by guards and ladies-in-waiting arranged by the Chi Ming clan.
