They already have a chat group, why bother with the plot?

“I want to take this opportunity to see the world, so I choose option one,” Xiao Yan said.

"Let's go then. Who knows how long it will take to get back if we just wait around?" Ellie said.

"Row."

Seeing this, Ling Yu nodded.

……

The market wasn't too far from where Ling Yu lived, so Gu Xun'er and Cui Zi arrived in just over ten minutes.

At the entrance, looking at the scale that rivaled that of the Xiao Family Market, Gu Xun'er's face showed slight surprise.

She had assumed it would be like a roadside vendor selling their wares on the ground, but she was surprised to find that there were actually permanent buildings for the business.

"Xun'er, is this your first time at the market?"

Noticing the curiosity and surprise in Xun'er's eyes, Cui Zi tentatively asked.

Upon hearing this, Gu Xun'er nodded slightly, then said somewhat embarrassedly, "Although the Xiao family's market also sells all kinds of vegetables, this is the first time I've seen one on such a large scale."

"I see. Then I'll leave the selection of ingredients to you, Xun'er, how about that?" Cui Zi thought for a moment and said.

Seeing this, Xun'er quickly shook her head: "Sister Cuizi, you should choose. It wouldn't be good if Xun'er accidentally caused you trouble."

"It's alright, it's a rare experience after all, and besides, don't you want to learn it?"

Finally, Cui Zi changed the subject, and under Gu Xun'er's questioning gaze, continued:

"To win a man's heart, you must first win his stomach. Xun'er, don't you want your Xiao Yan brother to eat the food you cook?"

Cui Zi's words were full of seduction, but Gu Xun'er stood there stunned.

She had never thought of cooking a dish for her brother Xiao Yan herself.

Given her special status, she simply wouldn't have access to these things.

Naturally, some small details will be overlooked.

But now, with Cui Zi's reminder, Gu Xun'er's heart was filled with a strong desire.

So she looked at Cui Zi very seriously and said, "Please teach me, Sister Cui Zi!"

Cui Zi smiled slightly: "No problem."

……

"This world is interesting!"

At the same time, Ling Yu and his group left the residential area and came out onto the street.

The old man residing in the Bone Flame Ring looked at the scene around him, which was completely different from the Dou Qi Continent, and his face showed shock.

Judging from the flow of people alone, its prosperity is no less than that of some major cities in Zhongzhou.

Moreover, the wide variety of items sold around him broadened his horizons considerably.

It was truly like Grandma Liu visiting the Grand View Garden—dazzled by the sights.

The addition of various neon lights made it even more difficult for Yao Lao to decide which side to look at.

Of course, Yao Lao's aimbot might be accidentally activated sometimes.

After all, those long, white legs are hard to look away from.

This is something that no man can escape.

However, the old doctor was soon attracted by a fragrance.

It smelled just like the fried chicken he used to eat.

As if savoring the memory, he unconsciously swallowed, his gaze fixed intently on the shop with the old man's portrait hanging on the wall.

Xiao Yan was also amazed.

Although the city he remembered was also very modern, it paled in comparison to the present.

Before he transmigrated, computers were a rare commodity; otherwise, so many people wouldn't have flocked to internet cafes.

But now, he can see at a glance that every store has a computer.

It's hard for him not to be shocked.

He took a deep breath, calmed his excited emotions, and looked at Ling Yu, asking expectantly.

"Brother Yu, did you bring any money?"

Ling Yu: "..."

The last person to ask him this question was, I think, some kind of emperor.

He casually took out a cell phone and threw it at Xiao Yan.

"Just scan the code to pay, there's no limit."

The moment he touched the phone, the instructions on how to use it came to him like a sudden enlightenment, giving him a jolt.

After receiving all the information, Xiao Yan couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement: "Has modern society developed to such a convenient level?"

QR code payment was something he wouldn't have dared to even think about before.

At this moment, Xiao Yan felt like a country bumpkin who had never seen the world.

However, this idea was quickly forgotten.

Recalling Ling Yu's earlier statement about no spending limit, she couldn't help but widen her eyes: "So powerful?!"

Even the dignified third young master of the Xiao family in Wutan City had his share of financial worries, and initially even borrowed a thousand gold coins from Xun'er.

Upon hearing this, Ling Yu smiled faintly and said something that stung Xiao Yan's heart.

"It's just that you're doing so badly."

Xiao Yan's lips twitched.

You're the only one.

So you're really insulting your fellow villager, aren't you?

Deciding to channel his grief and anger into motivation, Xiao Yan immediately picked up his phone and started shopping.

Inside the Bone Flame Ring, Yao Lao perked up at Xiao Yan's actions and quickly pointed in Ken Kunkun's direction, saying, "Little Yanzi, that smells pretty good, buy some and try it!"

"Teacher, don't rush, let me finish looking around this shop first."

Having returned to modern society after seventeen years, Xiao Yanke had so many things to buy.

While Dou Qi Continent is not bad, it lacks the corresponding conveniences of modern society.

He didn't have the chance before, but now he's determined to get everything he needs.

Faced with a dazzling array of shops.

Xiao Yan and Yao Lao were like two children, looking at this and touching this, and finally taking out their phones to scan the QR code to pay, all in one go.

Ling Yu glanced at the two of them and then ignored them.

Xiao Yan is, after all, a transmigrator, so getting lost or his personal safety isn't something he needs to worry about.

After sending a text message to Cui Zi, Ling Yu took Xiao Yi Xian and Ai Li for a stroll on the street.

When it comes to shopping, girls are definitely more motivated.

Ling Yu only made a brief start, and then completely became a supporting character.

At first, Little Fairy Doctor was a little awkward, but later she completely let loose and dragged Ling Yu around to various shops.

Among them, I bought several outfits for Ling Yu.

Of course, there was also a reward. As a reward for Ling Yu's hard work in following him, he also bought all sorts of beautiful clothes for Little Fairy Doctor.

As the saying goes, clothes make the man and a saddle makes the horse. With Ling Yu's help, Little Fairy Doctor also left behind a series of touching photos on Ling Yu's phone.

During this period, Ling Yu was involved in the purchase of both outerwear and underwear.

While enjoying the visual feast, she would occasionally try her hand at it, which made Little Fairy Doctor angry out of embarrassment and indignation.

……

Before long, Gu Xun'er and Cui Zi came into view.

Because of the text message translated by Ling Yu, Cui Zi, after finishing her shopping at the market, brought Gu Xun'er to meet her in front of the mall.

"Brother Ling Yu."

Upon seeing Ling Yu, Gu Xun'er took the initiative to greet him.

The young lady from the ancient clan was still as polite as ever.

Thinking to himself, Ling Yu nodded with a light smile and then handed over a cell phone.

"Just buy whatever you want."

Gu Xun'er was taken aback, and quickly said, "This is too much trouble for you."

Although she didn't know what a cell phone was, it didn't stop her from guessing the general meaning from Ling Yu's words.

"It's okay. Money is just a string of numbers to me. Besides, who knows when I'll get it again? Let's not have any regrets," Ling Yu said with a smile.

"Well, thank you, Brother Lingyu."

Seeing Ling Yu say this, Gu Xun'er stopped refusing and took the phone.

Thus, just like Xiao Yan, she also received a profound awakening.

"Your brother Xiao Yan is there, don't worry about us. You probably don't have much time left to spend with Xiao Yan."

"Seize the opportunity and don't let yourself have any regrets."

Seeing Gu Xun'er still standing motionless in front of him, Ling Yu pointed out the direction where Xiao Yan was.

Upon hearing this, Gu Xun'er looked helpless: "As expected, Brother Ling Yu, you know everything."

"I only know a little bit," Ling Yu said with a smile.

Without delving into why Ling Yu knew so much, Gu Xun'er simply bowed slightly to Ling Yu.

"Thank you for taking care of Brother Xiao Yan all this time. I hope you will continue to support him while I'm away!"

As she finished speaking, a hint of melancholy flashed in Gu Xun'er's eyes.

As she gets closer to adulthood, the time for her to leave Xiao Yan also draws ever closer.

Although she didn't want to leave her Xiao Yan brother, she also understood that it wasn't a decision she could make on her own.

A temporary delay is fine, but in the end, the clan will definitely send someone to pick her up.

And that was the time of parting.

"I am very grateful to you for suggesting that Brother Xiao Yan return to Canaan Academy," Gu Xun'er said.

“Actually, what you’ve been searching for is right here at Canaan Academy,” Ling Yu suddenly said.

The inexplicable words left Xun'er puzzled, but after carefully considering them, Gu Xun'er's pupils contracted.

"Could it be... the thing I've been searching for?!"

She cast an inquiring glance at Ling Yu.

The latter gave a mysterious smile.

"I can't say anything else, but I can guarantee one thing."

"My younger brother Xiao Yan has the potential to become a Dou Di!"

"Aqiu!"

Xiao Yan, who was shopping, sneezed loudly, wiped his nose, and looked around.

He muttered under his breath, "Who's making fun of me?"

At this moment, Gu Xun'er was stunned.

Dou Di!

What an ancient word.

It has been many years since a Dou Di has emerged in the Dou Qi Continent.
