"I said I don't need your information. If you didn't hear me just now, then I'll repeat myself one last time." Perhaps having reached her limit, the woman issued her final ultimatum.

However, Scarface was unaware that he was in deep trouble: "Hey...Miss, how can someone your age have no common sense at all?"

"It's not a question of whether you need it or not. You just need to obediently take out the money and hand it over to us."

Upon hearing this, Ryou's lips twitched involuntarily.

No matter how you look at it, that woman was a rare beauty. Not to mention her outstanding looks, her curvaceous figure alone was enough to arouse the envy and jealousy of countless women.

But what did they do? They had no interest in her whatsoever; they only wanted the money on her.

Sigh, the world has really changed. Even such a despicable person has such high standards.

"I..."

The woman was about to say something when she was interrupted by the scarred man.

"Don't try to deny it! I saw you have money. First, you went to Liuli Pavilion and ordered a table full of dishes, but you only tasted a little bit. Then you went to Xinyuexuan and Wanmintang and ordered all the signature dishes, but you only ate a bite of each one."

"If you weren't a rich heiress, how could you have such extravagant habits? Since you're so wealthy, why don't you share some with us?"

Good heavens, these two are not only blind, but also complete stalkers. And how can that guy say such things with such self-righteousness? It's truly incomprehensible.

"Although my master warned me not to take action in Liyue Harbor... oh well. Perhaps this is fate..."

With a soft sigh, Ryou Miyako clearly sensed that a unique aura was beginning to emanate from the woman's body. If one were to carefully sense it, one could even detect a trace of killing intent within it.

She's about to take action. If she just teaches those two guys a lesson, that's fine, but if she kills them, things won't be so easy to resolve.

But it doesn't matter, Suzumiya Yu has already brought the Chiiwa Army with her.

"Why is it you again?" The soldier from the Chiyan Army brought by Ryoumi was named Old Zheng. Judging from his appearance, he seemed to know the two guys.

So that's how it is. They're repeat offenders. No wonder they're so skilled. But their mistake was choosing to do it in a place like Yujingtai. Were they afraid of not being discovered?

"The Thousand Rock Army? Why is the Thousand Rock Army here..." Scarface couldn't help but be startled. If the Thousand Rock Army came, then their plan would be ruined.

"Did you do this?" Soon, he noticed Liang Gongyou standing next to Lao Zheng. Just as he was about to threaten him with a fierce tone, an extreme sense of oppression spread from Liang Gongyou's body, making him unable to speak.

This oppressive feeling was directed at Scarface alone, but the woman standing behind him couldn't help but frown.

Ryou Suzumiya naturally noticed this, which made him even more certain that the woman was not as simple as she appeared, after all, no mortal could have such an aura as that of an immortal.

"You two, come with me."

Subsequently, the two men were forcibly taken away by Old Zheng. Because he was a member of the Thousand Rock Army, even though he was alone, the two men dared not do anything.

If you offend the Thousand Rock Army in Liyue, do you still want to stay in this business?

After the three left, only Suzumiya Yu and the unfamiliar woman remained.

Because of her character design, Suzumiya Yu didn't approach her to talk, but instead turned around to leave.

"Wait!" But the other party suddenly called out to him, which surprised Suzumiya Yu.

Could it be that she noticed the oppressive aura I had just exuded?

"You... could it be that you also have the constitution of the Lone Star Calamity?"

"Uh..."

As it turned out, Suzumiya Yu was wrong, because the other party's opening remarks left him completely baffled.

Lonely Star Calamity? Is that a constitution? Could it be that Liyue also has special constitutions that people are born with, similar to those in cultivation worlds? If so, can mortals also cultivate to become immortals?

Realizing that her thoughts were drifting further and further away from reality, Ryou shook her head and immediately became more clear-headed.

"I don't understand what you're talking about. I just couldn't stand what those two guys were doing, so I stepped in to help them," Ryoumi Yu replied in a calm tone.

"Is that so... If it's not the Lonely Star Calamity, then why... do you give me such a unique feeling?"

Suzumiya Yui had been told this more than once; besides her, Granny Ping and Xiao had also said similar things.

Immortals possess keen senses. Even though Ryougu used the Transparent World to conceal all her aura, she could still be detected by them, though not very clearly.

Chapter 177 An Encounter with the White-Haired Fairy at Jade Capital Terrace

"Are you an immortal?" Suzumiya Yu asked the question that concerned her the most.

"No, it's just that I happened to learn some magic from an immortal and lived in an immortal's cave for a while." After saying that, she introduced herself, "My name is Shen He. Thank you for helping me out of that situation earlier."

"You're welcome, it was nothing." Ryoko Yu carefully observed the woman named Shin-ho in front of him. For some reason, he felt that she seemed to be deliberately suppressing something.

"You just mentioned the Lonely Star Calamity, can you explain to me what that is?" The Lonely Star Calamity is a type of constitution, but Liang Gongyou had never heard of it. If Shen He hadn't mentioned it, he wouldn't even have known that such a thing existed.

Moreover, just hearing the name "physical constitution" makes it clear that it's not a good thing. However, Ryouko is a little curious about what's so special about this physical constitution.

"That's a special constitution that you're born with, the Lone Star Calamity Beast. They possess a rare and intense killing intent, so they are destined to be lonely and will bring calamity to those around them... So please don't get too close to me."

Destined to be alone, and bringing calamity to those around her? This special constitution is not the first time Liang Gongyou has seen it; similar plots have appeared in various cultivation novels.

Moreover, most people with this physique are extremely powerful and influential, but... Shen He's strength doesn't seem very strong, at least not as strong as Liang Gongyou.

"I see. If that's the case, then why did you come to Liyue Harbor? Aren't you afraid that you might cause a major disaster?"

Since Shen He was afraid of hurting the people around her, she shouldn't have come to a place like Liyue Harbor. Not only is it densely populated, but there are also many people with ill intentions, like those two guys from earlier.

If Shen He were to be provoked and go berserk here, the consequences would be unimaginable, and even the Seven Stars might not be able to deal with her immediately.

"Well... because my master gave me a red string to suppress my bloodlust, I can usually remain rational." Shen He pointed to the red string he was wearing.

After hearing this, Suzumiya Yu was somewhat puzzled. The red string could actually suppress a person's murderous intent? Wasn't that something the Old Man Under the Moon used to arrange marriages? It actually had such a special function? This was something she had never imagined.

However, this also explains why Suzumiya Yu always felt that Shin-haku was able to suppress something; it turned out to be her murderous nature.

Indeed, if his murderous instincts are suppressed, Shen He's Gu Chen Jie Sha constitution will not easily manifest. In that case, Shen He can freely enter Liyue Harbor. Even if he is provoked, he will not go berserk. At most, he will just teach them a lesson.

"So... why did your immortal master send you to Liyue Harbor?" Shen He had been living in the Immortal Cave for a while, and because of her Gu Chen Jie Sha constitution, she was definitely unwilling to interact with too many people.

But she is, after all, a mortal, not a true immortal. So her immortal master would definitely help her find a way to integrate into human society, because for Shen He, that is where she truly belongs.

Immortals possess endless lifespans, but they must endure solitude, which is why they reside high in the mountains and are unwilling to associate with mortals. Shen He, however, is different; she does not have endless lifespans and will pass away at most in her early thirties.

Therefore, she did not need to endure the loneliness that immortals endure. For her, life was too short, and if she did not experience the beauty of the world, she would surely feel regret at the end of her life.

Her immortal master may have known this, which is why he sent her down the mountain to Liyue Harbor under the pretext of carrying out a mission, in order to help her integrate into human society.

"The Jade Pavilion is about to be rebuilt, but one of the materials is a talisman that only immortals can make. My master sent me down the mountain this time to deliver the immortal talisman to Ningguang."

"Also, she said that besides delivering immortal talismans to Ningguang, she also wanted me to find a way to integrate into human society this time..."

Just as Suzumiya Yu thought, Shin-haku's immortal master's real purpose in coming down the mountain was to help her find a way to integrate into human society.

But... can she really manage on her own? Ryou Miyako couldn't help but have doubts. The way of life of immortals is completely different from that of mortals. If Shin-haku wants to integrate into human society, it probably won't be that simple.

Just then, an unexpected voice rang out. Ryouko was taken aback at first, then focused her attention on Shin-haku's stomach.

"Uh..."

If he wasn't mistaken, Shen He was probably hungry.

"I'm not full, I should find something to fill my stomach." Shen He looked around, seemingly searching for something to eat.

But where can you find that around here? It's all mountains, water, or wood. You can't exactly make her eat grass, can you? Even immortals probably wouldn't eat that kind of thing.

"Didn't that guy say before that you go to many restaurants and order food, but only eat one bite of each dish... even though you're not full, why would you do that?"

"That's because... while earthly food is certainly delicious, if I were to return to the mountains in the future, the lingering taste of that food would become an obstacle to my cultivation."

Shen He believes that he may return to the immortal cave in the future. If that happens, if he tastes the flavors of mortal delicacies, he will probably linger there and become an obstacle to his cultivation.

Thinking about it that way, it's true. As long as I never taste the sweetness, I won't be afraid of suffering. That's extreme self-discipline.

“But aren’t you going to integrate into human society? If that’s the case, shouldn’t the most important thing to do be to abandon your old habits and imitate the lives of ordinary people?” Ryou said.

If Shen He wants to integrate into human society, she must give up her former lifestyle habits, such as eating immortal herbs and drinking dew, which are things that mortals would never do.

“That makes sense…” Upon hearing Ryou’s words, Shin-haku immediately realized, “Only by imitating the lifestyle of mortals can I integrate into human society. Otherwise, I will be regarded as an oddity by people, right?”

"You're not exactly an anomaly, but your demeanor is too similar to that of an immortal, which might make people afraid to approach you. So it's best to start by looking at how ordinary people communicate with strangers."

Ryou gave Shin-haku a suggestion, and only after saying it did he realize that Shin-haku had been watching him the whole time, with a strange look in his eyes.

"What's wrong?" He was puzzled. He hadn't done anything, so why was Shen He looking at him like that? It was as if he was surprised by what Shen He had said.

Chapter 178 Shen He, Lacking Common Sense

He didn't say anything he shouldn't have; he just made a very ordinary suggestion. Besides, if she doesn't learn how to communicate with people, she will never be able to successfully integrate into human society.

"No, I just feel... your constant use of 'mortals' and 'human society' gives me the impression that you're not human." Shen He explained why he was staring at Liang Gongyou.

Indeed, Yui Suzumiya kept talking about mortals and human society, as if she didn't include herself in it at all.

Moreover, Suzumiya Yu was not human to begin with; she had been a demon for several years and only retained the seven emotions and six desires that only humans possess.

If he really became like Muzan Kibutsuji, his name would probably have spread throughout the entire continent by now. After all, that scumbag boss has no humanity and never shows mercy to anyone.

Furthermore, Muzan Kibutsuji himself seems to have a great disdain for humans, which is why he has not been able to find the Blue Spider Lily even after a thousand years.

"I'm just analyzing things from your perspective. Besides, I'm a weirdo, so it's not surprising that others might mistake me for a being other than human," Ryou said, his calm tone as if he were stating something perfectly natural.

This reminded Shen He of how she had also been treated as an oddball, and that person was her own father.

Memories flooded back, and Shen He's body began to overflow with extreme killing intent. Fortunately, she had the red rope bestowed by her immortal master, so she quickly suppressed the killing intent.

"It seems we have something in common."

"Really? That's my honor... Never mind, I'd better not say that, lest you think I'm an ostentatious person."

“Your demeanor is far from being ostentatious, so how could I possibly think that way?” Shen He glanced at his rumbling stomach. “Now, let’s find somewhere to fill our stomachs first. Do you have any restaurant recommendations?”

As the core city of Liyue, Liyue Harbor has countless restaurants and inns, but the most famous of them are probably the Glass Pavilion and the Crescent Moon Pavilion.

These two restaurants represent the two major cuisines of Liyue: [Li Cuisine] and [Moon Cuisine]. They are also the two most expensive restaurants in Liyue, and ordinary people may never be able to afford a meal at either of them in their entire lives.

Even so, Ryougu would not recommend these two restaurants to Shin-haku, because their cuisine styles are too extreme, and most importantly, they are very troublesome; you have to make a reservation three months in advance to eat there.

"There's a restaurant called Wanmintang in Huyan. It doesn't have a specific cuisine. It's very good at both Licai (a type of pickled vegetable) and Yuecai (a type of pickled vegetable). It doesn't have any complicated customs, and its dishes are very versatile. It should be perfect for you."

Suzumiya Yu recommended Xiangling's family's Wanmintang. Although Wanmintang is not as well-known as Liuliting and Xinyuexuan, it is still a long-established brand in Liyue.

He had eaten there twice before when he had nothing to do, and the food was quite delicious, plus the cost wasn't too high.

If there's any downside... it's that the menu occasionally features some strange dishes, like stir-fried slime or lizard tails with seafood.
