What kind of magic? This is called cultivating immortality!

Chika smiled and waved goodbye.

The two entered the room, which was a twin room. They each found a bed and lay down comfortably.

……

Inside Jiangbei Gymnasium.

A somber figure stood in the center of the venue.

The woman had flowing white hair and was surrounded by an ethereal aura. She held a three-foot-long sword in her hand and faced the enormous creature before her.

Her face was frosty, and she recited the poem slowly and deliberately: "Master Cen, Danqiu Sheng, uh... the shepherd boy points to Xinghua Village! His back is bent, the sunset glows, and his sword shines like frost; one sword once blocked a million soldiers!"

In the distant stands, two girls yawned as they watched the game.

At this moment, one of the petite girls couldn't help but mutter, "It's just that our boss's Chinese teacher died early. Otherwise, if he had seen this scene with his own eyes, he probably would have insisted on taking our boss down with him before he died."

"Other people are bad at studying, but they're bad at math and English." A pretty girl chimed in, teasingly adding, "Only our Jiangbei's top student is bad at Chinese. He's a one-of-a-kind genius in this world."

"Thinking about it carefully, the eldest brother is really unlucky. He has seven completely different magical abilities, but he is restricted. In order to fully exert his power, he must play the role of the person he appears in, which means he has to carry some strange things every day."

"It's my destiny to be blessed; this is the eldest son's inescapable fate."

"Hey, stop complaining, the battle is about to end."

The two immediately stopped joking and looked at each other seriously.

The white-haired girl moved swiftly, slashing down with her sword. The enormous creature was split in two and fell silent.

The girl deactivated her transformation and turned to look at the two people on the platform: "Lu Yusheng! Liu Caiwei!"

"Boss, we were wrong!"

The two promptly slid down to their knees and apologized.

The girl didn't bother arguing with the two and asked, "How's the attendance tally going?"

"We've reached 115 people, and they've all agreed to stay at the hotel under your name," Liu Caiwei quickly reported.

"Have those things sent from headquarters been tested and debugged?"

“Everything is fine, boss,” Lu Yusheng replied.

"Alright, that's all for you. You can go now."

Just as the two turned to leave, the girl suddenly added, "Xiao Yu, get me an even more powerful one. This thing is quite fun."

"Boss, this is for testing."

"You said I'm the boss, what boss doesn't have some privileges?"

Lu Yusheng said no more and left with a smirk.

The girl stretched lazily and looked down at the giant wreckage on the ground, which she had cleaved open with her sword and was crackling with electricity inside.

Chapter 80 The Arrogant and Beautiful Woman

"Didn't you just buy a bunch of clothes yesterday afternoon? Why are you out shopping again today, and why do you insist on dragging me along?"

Inside a trendy clothing store, Zhong Hui, carrying shopping bags of all sizes, looked helplessly at Cang Xing and Qian Jia, who were enthusiastically selecting clothes in front of him.

“Yesterday is yesterday, today is today, they’re two different things.” Cang Xing picked up a navy blue sailor uniform and held it up against the mirror, her eyes full of delight. “Since we’ve come all this way to Jiangbei, we should definitely buy some new clothes, otherwise it would be a waste of our trip. Besides, you’re just sitting in the hotel with nothing to do, how boring.”

"I was meditating and cultivating in the hotel, which was quite fulfilling..." Zhong Hui silently complained to himself.

The two were as close as sisters, carrying a huge pile of clothes into the fitting room. He had no choice but to find an empty seat and wait idly.

He really couldn't understand women's love of shopping. Even though she had so many clothes at home that they couldn't fit them all, Cangxing was always on her way to buy clothes, and she always said that she had nothing to wear.

Unlike many male cultivators in the cultivation world, who can wear a single robe for a thousand years.

As Zhong Hui was inwardly sighing, a sharp, piercing shout suddenly rang out, breaking the silence in the shop.

"This blue one is sold out? I specifically called to reserve it for you, and now you're telling me it's out of stock? Is this your store's service attitude?"

Zhong Hui looked in the direction of the sound.

A woman with glamorous makeup was holding a pink dress and was angrily reprimanding the sales assistant in front of her.

The young sales assistant didn't dare to argue and could only lower her head and sincerely apologize: "Madam, I'm very sorry. The blue version of this item is indeed sold out. The sales assistant you previously worked with has left the company, and the blue version was reserved for you for a whole month, but you..."

Noticing the woman's increasingly gloomy expression out of the corner of her eye, the sales assistant quickly tried to salvage the situation: "This was an oversight on our part, and I apologize again. You can take a look at the spring collection, or our new shimmering silhouette; the style and quality are just as good as this one."

"I don't want anything else, I just want this blue one!" the glamorous woman said domineeringly. "Call right now and get me an exact copy from another store!"

The sales assistant looked troubled, but it was precisely this hesitant and reluctant expression that ignited the customer's anger. The woman stomped her foot forcefully, her expression becoming increasingly arrogant: "I'm a platinum member of your store, spending tens of thousands every month. What, is it so difficult to ask you to adjust the price of a single garment?"

"I'm so sorry, ma'am." The sales assistant bowed deeply, her eyes sincere yet helpless. "This blue version is out of stock nationwide, and we simply cannot get it in stock. I apologize again for the terrible shopping experience you've had."

"What's the use of just apologizing?" the woman rolled her eyes impatiently.

The sales assistant forced an awkward smile: "How about this, ma'am? To make up for your experience, I'll apply for a 15% discount on everything. Is that alright with you?"

"Who do you think you are? Do you even know who my husband is? Call your store manager here!"

Zhong Hui frowned. This woman was far too unreasonable and domineering. If she weren't an ordinary person, he would have wanted to teach her a lesson.

Not long after, a middle-aged female store manager in a suit rushed over.

Surprisingly, instead of mediating fairly, she publicly reprimanded the sales assistant, then turned to the unruly customer and apologized in a low voice. In the end, she even gave the pink dress to the customer as an apology, free of charge.

After the customer left satisfied, the store manager coldly reprimanded him: "Zhang Yun, did you waste your entire onboarding training? I'll deduct five hundred from your salary this month!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she didn't give the girl a chance to explain and turned to leave in her high heels.

The saleswoman stood there, biting her lip tightly, her eyes filled with grievance, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Alas, whether in the mortal or immortal realm, it is always the people at the bottom who suffer in the end," Zhong Hui sighed.

Just then, Sousei and Chika, who had finished trying on the clothes, walked out side by side.

Cang Xing changed into a pink, fitted dress, which made her look light and lovely. She twirled around on the spot, looking at Zhong Hui with expectant eyes: "How is it? Does it look good?"

“It looks very good,” Zhong Hui replied truthfully.

A simple compliment made Cangxing smile broadly, her eyes crinkling with joy.

Qianjia, dressed in a British retro workwear outfit, looked even more dashing and capable. She glanced around the store and asked in confusion, "What happened in the store just now, what was all that noise?"

Zhong Hui briefly recounted the events that had just transpired.

"How could this be? This is so unfair!" Cangxing couldn't help but feel indignant on behalf of the little girl.

Qianjia saw things clearly, and said in a calm tone: "On one hand, there are customers who spend tens of thousands every month, and on the other hand, there is an ordinary entry-level position that can be replaced at any time. The value of the two is self-evident."

After saying that, she raised her hand and waved to the sales assistant: "Hello, could you come over here for a moment and help us introduce a few clothes?"

Upon hearing the greeting, the young woman immediately forced a professional smile and quickly went to greet them, skillfully and professionally introducing the styles to the two.

Things seemed to be moving in a positive direction, but Zhong Hui was the only one suffering.

The two had already finished trying on clothes and were about to pay, but after this introduction, their interest was reignited, and they picked out more than a dozen new clothes, happily carrying the clothes into the fitting room.

"I'm afraid I'm going to waste my day completely..." Zhong Hui felt a headache coming on.

Just then, the sales assistant came over with a bottle of water and said with a gentle smile, "Miss, thank you for your hard work. This is a complimentary bottle of soda water provided by the store."

Zhong Hui took the water bottle, glanced at it, and, without much interest, tentatively asked, "Can I have Sprite instead?"

The young woman paused for only a moment before quickly recovering: "Excuse me, miss, we only offer soda water. If you'd like Sprite, I can go out and buy it for you. Would you prefer bottled or canned?"

"Never mind," Zhong Hui waved his hand.

"Okay, please let me know if you need anything." The young girl bowed and took her leave.

Zhong Hui sat and waited patiently for more than twenty minutes until Cang Xing and Qian Jia finished trying on the clothes and finally came out satisfied.

After paying the bill, the two spent a total of 36,000 yuan. The three of them left the store carrying large and small bags, their purchases plentiful.

Zhong Hui thought he could finally go back to the hotel, but he was clearly mistaken.

Undeterred, the two continued their stroll through jewelry and cosmetics stores, stopping frequently until their legs began to ache. Only then did they find a coffee shop to sit down and rest.

Inside the café, Cangxing and Qianjia chatted happily about their next destination, while Zhong Hui rested his chin on his hand, looking utterly dejected as he quietly gazed out the window.

Just then, a familiar figure came into view in the distance.

It's that glamorous woman who was being unreasonable and throwing a tantrum in the clothing store just now.

At this moment, she was no longer the arrogant and domineering woman she had been before. She was disheveled, with bruises and swelling on her face, and her wet hair was stuck to her face, as if she had been beaten up.

Her face was filled with terror, as if she were being pushed by something, and she staggered toward the floor-to-ceiling glass.

The next second, she braced herself against the glass, flipped over, and jumped off the high-rise building.

All the changes happened in just three seconds. By the time the passersby realized what was happening, it was already too late.

Several sharp screams followed.

"Something's happened, let's go!" Zhong Hui stood up and strode outside.

Although Sousei and Chika didn't know what had happened, they quickly followed after hearing the piercing screams.

When the three of them arrived on the first floor, a large crowd had already gathered around them, discussing the matter animatedly.

In the very center of the crowd stood the glamorous woman who had jumped from the seventh floor. Her eyes were bulging, her head was shattered, and red and white liquid was slowly flowing on the white porcelain floor. She was no longer alive.

Chapter 81 The Missing Zhang Yun

"How could a perfectly healthy person suddenly jump off a building!"

"It's such a pity that she's so young and beautiful."

"Don't just stand there, call the police right now!"

The first floor of the mall was already crowded with onlookers, who were discussing the bloodied corpse on the ground.

Some people looked regretful, some filmed videos to join in the fun, and many others took out their phones and dialed the police.

Among the crowd, Zhong Hui silently gazed at the corpses on the ground.

Based on the woman's fearful and helpless expression before jumping, he was certain that this was not suicide at all.

Cangxing turned to look at him, and asked with a puzzled look, "Isn't there something wrong with this suicide case?"
