What kind of magic? This is called cultivating immortality!

"A happy little dinosaur..."

The little girl, holding a candied hawthorn, hummed a nursery rhyme with childlike innocence and joy.

Liu Bufan was filled with fear of the little girl and cautiously asked, "Sir, where are we going?"

"Find a place where you can grow up faster," the little girl replied innocently, licking her candied hawthorn. "You disappoint me so much. That guy bullied you so much, and you still didn't finish eating him. Now you're not fully evolved at all, and I have to help you grow."

"I'm sorry, sir, it's my fault!" the man apologized hastily.

"It's alright."

The little girl took a big bite out of a candied hawthorn, saying, "Anyway, I've found the best target."

"Who is it?"

"Of course, it's those two older sisters from earlier!"

"But...but they are good people," Liu Bufan stammered.

"Huh, that's strange." The little girl tilted her head, her bright eyes blinking. "Don't you hate this society, hate everyone?"

"Besides, good people should die. This world doesn't need good people."

The little girl still smiled innocently, holding the dumbfounded man's hand, and walked in one direction.

That was the home of the two girls.

She would stay there and wait for the two girls to return.

Then, let your pets eat them up, bite by bite.

Chapter 18 Correspondent Li Nianjiao

In the afternoon, warm sunlight streamed into the living room.

After finishing lunch, Zhong Hui nestled on the sofa, her eyes still sparkling with excitement as she intently tapped her phone screen with her fingertips.

After a morning of simple instruction from Cangxing, he roughly figured out how to use the object.

On the bus, Cangxing downloaded various commonly used apps onto the phone and explained them to her one by one.

Following his memory, Zhong Hui tentatively opened a search app with a cat paw icon. He clicked on the search bar and scribbled the words "cultivation" on the screen.

The next second, all sorts of cultivation-related information, movies, and animations popped up like a tidal wave, dazzling the eyes.

“Interesting.” Zhong Hui’s eyes lit up.

Although the cultivation system in this world is terrible, the cultivation atmosphere is exceptionally strong... He scrolled through the screen with great interest and finally selected a movie called "Chinese Paladin".

"Oh? It's still a cultivation story for mortals. I like it."

I listened patiently to the theme song, and the first episode unfolds with a boy's dream.

As the plot unfolded, he became increasingly engrossed, completely absorbed in the story.

Just then, a message popped up on my phone screen.

The source of the information was Destiny's exclusive communication software.

After a moment's thought, Zhong Hui immediately decided to postpone his cultivation and see what the message was about.

He raised his hand and tapped the message pop-up; a line of text caught his eye:

[Hello, I'm your personal correspondent, Li Nianjiao. From now on, I will be responsible for your affairs. Please feel free to guide me in my work.] A smiley face emoji was added at the end of the sentence.

The team leader had mentioned the matter of the communications officer to him during a previous meeting, and Cangxing had repeatedly reminded him of it after they returned.

To put it simply, the communicator is like a magical girl's hidden assistant, a bridge connecting the magical girl and headquarters.

When magical girls encounter a crisis, they can seek help from the communicator. If headquarters issues a mission, it is usually done through the communicator.

Given this, there seems to be no reason to ignore it.

Zhong Hui pondered for a moment, then immediately raised his hand and solemnly began writing on the screen with one finger.

Each stroke was deliberate, crooked, and slow.

now.

Headquarters of Destiny, Communications Department.

Correspondent Li Nianjiao, dressed in a white shirt and a pencil skirt, sat upright at her workstation.

Her baby face, still chubby with soft, baby fat, grew increasingly tense. Her delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly, and her eyes were glued to the computer screen, not daring to look away for even a moment.

Time ticked by, and the chat interface displayed the message "The other party is typing..." for several minutes, but no message was sent.

"Could she... have a problem with me?"

Li Nianjiao tapped her fingers unconsciously on the table, her heart pounding with anxiety.

As a messenger, maintaining a good relationship with the magical girl you're in charge of is of paramount importance.

If she can't even pass this first hurdle, it's enough to show that she's not capable enough, which means she can be laid off directly and shouldn't even think about doing this kind of work again.

Li Nianjiao found this result utterly unacceptable.

She had been striving to become a "magical girl communicator" since high school, worked hard to get into university, and finally graduated with excellent grades. It was only with great difficulty that she was able to get this job.

After three months of training, I officially started my job today.

She thought her dream had come true and she could offer her small contribution to the magical girl who protects the world, but she never expected that she would fail at the opening remarks.

This was a bolt from the blue.

In order to build a good relationship, she had been carefully considering her opening remarks since last night and even asked a few senior colleagues for advice.

I deleted and revised it repeatedly, and finally, this afternoon, I nervously pressed the send button.

She believed her tone was gentle, her attitude was appropriate, and even her emojis were just right.

"What could be making her uncomfortable that she hasn't been replying?" Li Nianjiao was completely baffled.

She gritted her teeth again and tentatively typed another message and sent it:

【Lord Zhong Hui, I've seen the photos of you fighting in Red Cherry City. You're so beautiful and amazing!】

P.S.: (The captain did not report Zhong Hui's true gender.)

She took a deep breath and kept her eyes glued to the screen.

Meanwhile, on the other side...

A new message popped up in the chat interface. Zhong Hui, who had just finished writing half of his reply by hand, froze instantly.

What's going on? So what if you can type?

He gritted his teeth and could only delete all the words he had painstakingly written over the past half day. After pondering carefully for a while with a serious face, he finally wrote down a single word and quickly pressed the send button.

【Um. 】

The moment she received the message, a smile bloomed on Li Nianjiao's face.

Although the reply was extremely brief, it was still much better than being ignored.

Her confidence soared, and her fingers flew across the keyboard:

[Lord Zhong Hui, thank you for your recognition! I will definitely do my best to help you in the future!]

【Um. 】

"So aloof!" Li Nianjiao's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but mutter to herself, "I really want to see Lord Zhong Hui in person... She's so beautiful when she transforms, her real form must be exceptionally beautiful too."

Upon hearing this, Li Nianjiao smiled and shook her head, realizing that she was simply indulging in wishful thinking.

The true identities of magical girls are strictly protected; even communicators cannot know their specific identities.

【Then I won't bother Lord Zhong Hui any longer. Please feel free to send a message if you need anything; I'll be available 24/7.】

【Um. 】

After dealing with the correspondent, Zhong Hui was about to continue watching the TV series "Chinese Paladin".

At that moment, Sousei, who had finished washing the dishes, came out.

She dried her wet hands with a washcloth, walked straight behind Zhong Hui, glanced at her phone screen, and said, "Chinese Paladin, why are you watching such an old TV series?"

"The visuals are a bit dated, but the storyline is good, and some of the cultivation theories in it have merit," Zhong Hui replied quickly, his eyes never leaving the screen.

The game "Chinese Paladin" is currently showing a scene where a sword immortal teaches the art of sword control, and he is very interested in this move.

The swordsmanship itself isn't particularly powerful, but its strength lies in its exquisite and varied moves, and more importantly, it doesn't consume much spiritual energy.

Zhong Hui possesses very few low-level magical techniques, and he is currently only at the Qi Refining Realm. If he cannot quickly defeat his enemies using powerful spells and supernatural abilities, he will easily become easy prey.

However, if he could learn the sword control technique, he would have another means of fighting enemies while still in the Qi Refining Realm.

As for whether I can learn it?

Just kidding, he's the Heavenly Emperor!

He had read countless ancient books in his life. There was one ancient book in which he only read about the life of the person who wrote it, and from that he learned a unique skill called "Buddha's Wrathful Lotus".

Such comprehension is terrifying!

Now that a sword immortal is personally demonstrating the technique, it would be incredibly easy for him to learn it.

Seeing that Zhong Hui was engrossed in watching, Cang Xing didn't disturb her any further. She quietly sat down on the other side of the sofa, put on her headphones, and began watching "The Strong Woman," ranked tenth on the list of the 100 most tragic historical dramas.

Chapter 19 Murder Case

As time passed, the afternoon sun moved slowly and steadily, its warm rays filling the entire living room. The soft light fell on Cangxing's fair face, giving it a faint rosy glow.

She leaned back on the sofa, wearing a floral dress, her slightly curled hair flowing smoothly over her shoulders.

At this moment, she tilted her head slightly, her eyes were slightly red, and her gaze was fixed on the phone screen, unwilling to look away for even a moment.

With her girl-next-door attire and pitiful expression, anyone who saw her would feel a surge of tenderness.

Zhong Hui, standing to the side, was already completely mesmerized.

Silently watching the game "Chinese Paladin" playing on my phone.

The person in the drama who calls himself a sword immortal, although his cultivation level is only at the Foundation Establishment stage, has a unique cultivation philosophy and his sword control technique is extraordinary.
