In the following days, Cheng Zongyang used his invisibility to swipe quite a few things from various places—books, clothes, daily necessities, money, food, drinks, phones, and so on. Whatever he saw humans using, he would learn how to operate, then bring some back to teach the Mermaid so they could progress together.
As for the language, with his exceptional Spiritual Power, it wasn't difficult for Cheng Zongyang to learn. By piecing together the pronunciation of various syllables and grasping their general meanings, he figured it out little by little. After all, he couldn't exactly seek out humans to teach him; he could only take it one step at a time.
Cheng Zongyang and the Mermaid were in no rush, yet they made progress every single day.
A year passed just like this.
