Behind her, Guinaifen was juggling and breathing fire.
And Sushang, sitting by her jade amulet, wasn't idle either.
"Why was yesterday's video taken down? The Xianzhou has clear regulations on that."
"Does Si Ding have someone he likes? How would I know that? Actually, I'm quite curious myself."
"What do I think about the next General of the Xianzhou Luofu? You'll have to ask that closed-eyed General ~"
"Do I support Si Ding becoming the next leader of the Xianzhou Luofu? That doesn't seem like a topic I can discuss."
"Asking what I think of Si Ding? Do I like him or dislike him? Si Ding is a very good person; I like him very much."
Sushang could be said to be very forthcoming.
Of course, for some more private questions, or some secrets about the Luofu, she didn't answer directly, merely giving evasive replies.
As time passed, a large crowd of onlookers had gathered around the area where Guinaifen was livestreaming her performance.
It's worth noting that Nan Li and Lestia were also among them.
Huh?
You want to ask if he doesn't need to rush back to work at the Dan Ding Division?
Hmph, you wouldn't think he's really busy, would you?
He has already handed over all the major and minor affairs of the Dan Ding Division to Dan Shu and Yu Fei to manage.
He has also entrusted ordinary patients to his subordinate medical practitioners and the renowned "Healer Dragon Lady."
Only when encountering matters that cannot be handled will Nan Li step in.
That is to say...
Currently, apart from the matters related to treating the Mara-Struck, which require his personal attention and focus, Nan Li is quite idle most of the time.
Later, once Ling Sha is called over from the Zhuming Starcruiser and he hands over the work of treating the Mara-Struck to her, Nan Li will be able to spend every day at leisure.
Slacking off?
Who said he couldn't slack off?
Little Qingque is still too young to appreciate the convenience that power brings.
What Nan Li didn't know was that a certain young Qingque was currently being dominated by something called "power" and was working tirelessly...
More and more onlookers gathered.
And in the bustling crowd, Nan Li spotted a familiar young figure.
So he called out to Lestia, who was engrossed in watching, and then walked over.
Approaching his target, Nan Li called out to the other party.
"Yanqing."
Yanqing heard someone call him, looked in the direction of the voice, and then he saw Nan Li.
"Oh, it's Teacher Nan Li."
Saying that, he squeezed through the crowd and jogged over to Nan Li.
"Hello, Teacher Nan Li."
"Don't you have a mission today?"
"Hmm, I'm off today. I just went to the Artisanship Commission to pay the final installment for the flying sword I custom-ordered last month, and I came here to watch the performance on the way."
Hearing Yanqing say this, Nan Li couldn't help but murmur.
"No wonder Jing Yuan asked me to treat him to dinner last night."
He had been wondering why Jing Yuan didn't even have money for dinner, despite his salary having just been paid a few days ago, and had to ask him to treat him.
It turned out that it was all given to his disciple, Yanqing, to buy a flying sword.
Because the person just spoke too softly, Yanqing didn't quite hear what Nan Li said.
He only vaguely heard "dinner" and "treat."
"Huh? Did you say something just now, Teacher Nan Li?"
"It's nothing, don't worry about it."
Seeing this, Yanqing didn't ask any more questions; instead, his gaze turned to the beautiful dark elf maiden beside Nan Li.
"Teacher, who is this, if I may ask?"
"Oh, I forgot to introduce her. Lestia is a friend I met online, and she plans to live on the Luofu for a while recently."
As soon as Nan Li finished speaking, he saw Lestia gracefully curtsy to Yanqing, lifting her skirt slightly.
"Hello, my name is Lestia."
Seeing this, Yanqing also bowed his head, respectfully cupped his fists, and replied, "Hello, my name is Yanqing."
Just like that, after both of them had introduced themselves, Nan Li spoke again.
"Don't let Yanqing's youth fool you; he is the youngest Cloud Knights Xiaowei in our history. Even many older generations can't defeat him."
He boasted about Yanqing to Lestia like a proud father.
And Lestia, at the appropriate moment, widened her eyes slightly, a hint of admiration in her expression.
"Oh? That's impressive, Yanqing is indeed talented at a young age."
Praised by Nan Li and under Lestia's seemingly adoring gaze, Yanqing scratched his head a little shyly.
"Haha... not at all, compared to Master Jing Yuan and Teacher Nan Li, I still have a long way to go."
Yanqing's words sounded very humble.
But a discerning person could tell that an uncontainable arrogance emanated from within his words.
Because he only compared himself to Jing Yuan and Nan Li.
Yanqing indeed had the right to do so.
After all, among the younger generation of the Luofu, and even among many of the older generation, none could match Yanqing's achievements in martial arts.
For this, Jing Yuan sighed constantly in front of Nan Li.
He was deeply afraid that his disciple would gradually turn from being proud to arrogant.
He had finally managed to transfer Sushang from Yaoging recently, thinking that Yanqing would have a rival in the future.
But he didn't expect that Sushang was a girl who was equally lacking in both scholarly and martial arts.
The clarity and foolishness in her eyes made it seem as if she had never been tainted by knowledge.
In terms of swordsmanship, she always slacked off and dragged her feet.
Yanqing thought, "Is this all there is to the young prodigies of other Xianzhou? Heh heh!"
Now, while Nan Li was thinking in his mind about how to make Yanqing suffer a setback, he spoke to the latter.
"Alright, I won't disturb your rare day off any further. I'm taking Lestia to the Earth Entrust Division to apply for a temporary ID card."
"Okay, Teacher Nan Li, take care."
Nodding, Nan Li turned and walked towards the opposite side of the plaza.
Lestia, meanwhile, smiled and waved goodbye to Yanqing, then trotted after Nan Li.
Once they had walked a considerable distance, Nan Li asked Lestia behind him without turning his head.
"Lestia, what do you think of Yanqing?"
Regretfully withdrawing her gaze from the crowd behind them, Lestia carefully assessed the feeling Yanqing gave her.
"Hmm... he's exceptionally sharp, but too much rigidity breaks easily."
"Hmm, a very accurate assessment."
Even Lestia, who had only met Yanqing once, could see it, which meant that Yanqing's problem was already quite significant.
It was time to put a stop to it.
For this, Nan Li already had a suitable candidate in mind.
That would be Bai Heng.
In the original plot, three of the High-Cloud Quintet imposed sanctions on Yanqing.
Jing Liu, Blade, Dan Heng.
If Bai Heng was missing, Nan Li always felt something was off.
Moreover, Bai Heng should not object to educating the younger generation of the Luofu.
In fact, with her personality, she might even be very willing.
Sorry, Yanqing, to ensure your proper growth, you'll just have to endure some hardship recently.
This is all our profound love for you as elders!
... The process of helping Lestia apply for a temporary ID card went smoothly and didn't take much time.
After all, with Nan Li's recommendation and guarantee, the Earth Entrust Division gave them the green light all the way.
After completing the process, Lestia even made it in time for Guinaifen's "Great Live Person Transformation" performance.
Amidst the cheers of many spectators in the plaza, Nan Li noticed a notification popped up in the Chat Group.
He split off a portion of his attention to check and found that a new person had joined the group.
[Welcome Expense Warrior and Sword Saintess to the Chat Group. The concept of myriad realms has been sent into the souls of the two group members. Come chat quickly.]
