Suddenly, Qing Yu Year looked up at Li Xiaonan and knocked three times, saying, "Master Li Xiaonan, I greet you!"
"Ha ha! Good! Very good! Excellent! I finally have a disciple! Ha ha ha!" Li Xiaonan lifted Qing Yu Year with one hand, "Since you've acknowledged me as your master, don't regret it. I'll give you a year to elevate your son... um... grandson, whatever works, just help him rise to power and then come with me."
Qing Yu Year nodded respectfully. Having walked through the gates of hell, he had seen through everything. Although he still felt a bit attached to Qingjing Year, he believed that Li Xiaonan would not neglect Qingyu City. Ultimately, the move he made before was indeed the right one.
After bowing to Qingjing Year, Qing Yu Year stepped out of the room. As the door closed behind him, a sly smile appeared on Li Xiaonan's face. He had gained a wife and earned soldiers—what a delight! Qing Yu Year was his greatest gain, and who was Qing Yu Year? The Qing Yu Emperor! Even if Qingyu City changed masters in the future, the blood of the Qing Yu Emperor would still run in its veins. To put it plainly, the Qing Yu Emperor was his ancestor.
With the ancestor as his disciple, this relationship meant that Qingyu City became an extension of Li Xiaonan's discipleship, which he gladly accepted.
In the days that followed, Li Xiaonan began to strategize his entry into the mortal realm's Trading Market. He directly asked Qing Yu Year for the most bustling and prosperous area in Qingyu City, planning to build a residence even richer than the Emerald Pavilion. In the future, Mei Family's elixirs could be sold there!
Although called a city, Qingyu City was surrounded by towering mountains to the north and east and bordered by the sea to the south; it could still be considered a wealthy small nation. The layout of Qingyu City was simple yet demonstrated the wisdom of its builders: it was divided into five major directions with the imperial city at its center, separated by an artificial river.
After much contemplation, Li Xiaonan finally came up with a catchy name for his shop: Taobao Store! Since they were not on Earth and it didn't involve copyright issues, even though the girls shook their heads in disapproval, they ultimately went along with him.
One day, Li Xiaonan brought his family into the house and waved his hand to set up several restrictions with a serious expression.
"Xiao Nan, what are you planning?" Mei Yingluo asked on behalf of everyone.
"Mass training! Streamlined operations! This is the formation diagram. Yanrong and Xian'er, you two will be responsible for refining materials; Mo Yu and Mother will handle shaping; Grandfather, Ling Kui, and Lu Ni Chang will carve the formations. The first batch of Storage Belts—Vast Starry Sky—will come from our hands!" A joyful smile spread across Li Xiaonan's face.
His inner thoughts were: I want to open chain stores; this one in Qingyu City is just the first. Soon, there will be Taobao Stores all over Starry Illusion Continent under my name—ha ha ha!
Seeing his silly grin, Yun Moyu nudged him and said, "Oh great, you see us all as laborers. What are you going to do?"
Li Xiaonan pinched her little nose and laughed, "Of course I'm going to make new inventions! Taobao products will be number one in the world! Ha ha!"
Yun Moyu pouted her red lips slightly upward and said, "I won't help you!" With that, she picked up some materials nearby and began refining them.
Li Xiaonan smiled lightly as he took out some materials from the Soul Ring. He had always wanted to create a communication talisman but had been short on time.
In his mind, he began to sketch the design of the Big Brother Phone, envisioning two arrays carved on its surface—one for output and one for input, connected by a transmission array and a spirit gathering array. However, he was not very familiar with this type of formation, so he recalled the chapter on communication in the Spirit Capture Technique. He had tried it on Nine Phoenix before with decent results, so perhaps he could draw inspiration from that.
Scratching his head, he ignited two flames of Nine Yang True Fire in his hands and grabbed a handful of materials to refine and purify them, shaping them into the form of the Big Brother Phone. With a push of his hands, he made them float in the air, and as his hands became ethereal, he inscribed the arrays above. Li Xiaonan furrowed his brow as he slowly connected the formations between the two Big Brother Phones with his index fingers. When they touched, a flash of Azure Light erupted from both devices.
The two jade-green Big Brother Phones landed in Li Xiaonan's hands. He slapped his thigh excitedly and squeezed them together, causing both phones to merge back into the Nine Yang True Fire.
This time, Li Xiaonan infused the element of Sound Attack into them. A silent Big Brother Phone was hardly a true Big Brother Phone! Although Li Xiaonan didn't know how to transmit sound through mediums, he understood how to convey an attack. Sound Attack was just that—sound! As long as he reduced the amplitude of the attack, he could achieve a phone-like effect through transmission and reception arrays.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and Li Xiaonan's smile grew wider while those around him gradually paused their work to focus on him.
“It’s done! My Big Brother Phone is ready!” Li Xiaonan exclaimed joyfully as he looked at the two devices in his hands. They were significantly larger than modern smartphones and resembled brick phones from the 1980s.
Mei Qingdan and several other girls leaned in curiously. Li Xiaonan grinned and said, “Grandpa, this one’s for you! I’m going outside to test how well this thing works!”
With a burst of energy, Li Xiaonan flew a thousand meters away and pressed a button. “Hello? Hello? This is Li Xiaonan! Can you hear me, Grandpa…”
“…” Li Xiaonan scratched his head. Did it fail?
“Wow! Brother Xiaonan is in the square!” Lu Nishang's voice came from the other end. Li Xiaonan shouted excitedly, “Yes! It worked!”
In a flash, Li Xiaonan returned to his small room in Qingyu City Palace.
“Brother Xiaonan, this is so much fun! I want one too!” Lu Nishang exclaimed as she bumped into Li Xiaonan's younger brother. He shook his head helplessly but picked her up with a laugh. “Of course! Everyone gets one! One for each person!”
“Xiao Nan, what is this called?” Ling Kui asked as she took the Big Brother Phone and poked it with her delicate fingers out of curiosity.
“It’s called the Big Brother Phone! It’s way better than the communication talisman my adoptive father gave me! Not only can it be reused multiple times, but you can also clearly know what’s happening on the other end,” Li Xiaonan replied with a smile. However, his smile soon faded as thoughts of the Outer Academy's Scholar Principal crossed his mind. He wondered if he had calmed down yet and thought about his master, Master's Wife, and senior brother—he hoped they were all doing well.
For a brief moment, Li Xiaonan was lost in thought. With things having come this far, he couldn't just turn back. He might as well stay in Qingyu City.
The others began to craft Storage Belts, but Li Xiaonan found himself in a dilemma. Although it sounded simple to have one for each person, how was he supposed to establish the network of connections? If he connected each pair, how many formations would he need to set up? It would drive him insane... The key issue was that he couldn't even set them up.
He furrowed his brow and pondered for a day. Finally, a spark of inspiration lit up his eyes as he took out a pile of materials and began crafting.
Three days passed. Including the two Big Brother Phones he had made earlier, Li Xiaonan had crafted a total of eight. Except for one that had numerous buttons, the rest looked identical.
Li Xiaonan sighed; this was the only method he could think of. One would serve as the main unit, while the others would be extensions. He picked up the Big Brother Phone with many buttons, which had seven keys labeled: Mother, Outside, Spirit, Beauty, Rain, Rainbow, and Immortal. This meant he could connect with seven people, while those seven could not connect with each other.
However, considering that functionality should suffice, usually it was only Li Xiaonan who wandered off; the other girls mostly stayed together.
Mei Qingdan touched the Big Brother Phone and smiled, "Xiao Nan, do you plan to sell this?"
"Of course!" A voice as sweet as honey and like celestial music flowed from Li Xiaonan's lips.
Everyone was taken aback.
Li Xiaonan swallowed hard, parted his lips lightly, and slowly said, "Hello... umm... hello..." His voice became increasingly ethereal and melodious. He snapped angrily, "What is going on!" Even his angry tone sounded pleasant.
Ling Kui looked at Li Xiaonan with a frown and said, "Could it be? Harmony Technique... has broken through?"
Li Xiaonan gritted his teeth in frustration and collected the hundreds of belts scattered on the ground. He exclaimed angrily, "Find Father-in-law!"
Lu Nishang tilted her head and pouted, pointing at Li Xiaonan's chest. "Look! Xiao Nan... brother... he's swollen..."
Li Xiaonan looked down at his chest where two large balloons were forming, wearing a bewildered expression. He pinched them with both hands and let out a couple of hums before shouting, "Ah!"
Ling Kui clenched her fists and hurried outside to pull Spirit Weapon in from watering flowers. With a wave of her hand, she closed the door with a loud "bang!"
Spirit Weapon was still in a daze, holding a water bottle, and muttered, "What happened to you, girl?"
"Father-in-law!" Li Xiaonan lowered his head, fiddling with his fingers. His long Azure Silks cascaded over his shoulders, and his long eyelashes cast shadows over his watery eyes. His thin lips resembled cherry blossoms in full bloom, gently pursed. The ample curves of his chest had already strained against the collar of his shirt, revealing an alluring cleavage that made all the women present envious.
Standing at 1.87 meters tall, with a perfect nine-head body proportion, he boasted an impressive 36D bust.
While Li Xiaonan's appearance hadn't changed much, his aura had transformed into an incredibly delicate beauty, exuding a charming demeanor that instantly overshadowed all the other girls in the room.
He merely took a small step, and his soft waist swayed slightly, causing Mei Qingdan's heart to race as if it might leap out of his chest. He hurried forward to check on Li Xiaonan, only to be utterly devastated; his grandson had turned into a granddaughter. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that fashion could be so absurd.
Inside, Li Xiaonan felt a deep resentment. He had finally seen and even touched 36D breasts, but unfortunately, they were on his own body! What kind of nonsense was this?
Spirit Weapon swallowed hard and looked at the only man in the room, Mei Qingdan, asking, "What is going on?"
Li Xiaonan rushed forward, two bunnies bouncing in front of Spirit Weapon. Startled, Spirit Weapon took two steps back and stammered, "You... you..."
With a mournful expression, Li Xiaonan said, "Father-in-law, haven't you encountered anything like this while practicing the Harmony Technique?"
Spirit Weapon shook his head vigorously. "I've heard that special things might happen during breakthroughs, but I've never experienced anything like that!"
The bitterness in Li Xiaonan's heart was overwhelming. Why was it that he had to encounter such things? And both times during breakthroughs! What kind of Soulmate probability was this? Was he not allowed to live?
Tears seemed to well up in his eyes as he blushed (out of anger) and murmured, "What... what should I do? I... I don't want to be... a woman..."
