(MC's POV)

There are times when a man has got to act.

… Especially when it involves money and benefits.

"Such a good-looking lad, yet such strange fetish. *sigh*"

Old lady A of the shop next to me sighed regretfully.

"Don't be a pervert like that guy when you grow up."

A mother said to her kid while pointing at me.

ヽ(;▽;)ノ

Currently, I was walking down the street with an unconscious loli at my back and an unwilling teary-eyed loli at my behind.

It was a scene which could easily be misunderstood.

But I was not willing to back down.

After all, the loli at my back was no normal loli.

She was probably the young mistress of one of the four major clans in the Spiritual plane.

An inference which could easily be made by checking her cultivation which seemed to be sealed at the peak of Spiritual Arrival.

And from her instant teleportation which could only be the work of a mortal transportation stone that was currently in possession of three of the four major clans of the spiritual plane.

Well, I suppose two from now on.

To add on, she teleported in front of Lily who had the primordial spirit root which was well known for its sensitivity towards nature and vice-versa.

Thus, there was no doubt about my hypothesis.

She was indeed a rich girl.

A rich girl who was my hope to gain a nice and relaxing life in the spiritual plane.

One filled with riches and beauties.

o(^▽^)o

...…

(Lily's POV)

H-How could this be?

I wondered with a sense of loss.

'My teary-eyed technique was ineffective?'

Up until now, whenever I filled my eyes with tears or used my puppy eyes, master would do whatever I said.

But now.

"Hehe. I am gonna laze around."

He kept repeating the same words again and again without pause.

Initially, I was just jealous.

But now, I am a bit worried.

'Master has not gone mad, has he?'

I wondered as I gazed at the figure of master talking to himself.

...…..

(MC's POV)

After reaching our temporary residence, I placed the unconscious girl at the bed located in our guest room.

As glimmers of setting sunlight passed through the window, I finally understood why Lily did not allow me to glance at the girl's face while we were walking.

The fainted girl was beautiful.

In fact, she was almost too beautiful.

With a yellow blonde hair that glistened like daylight and a face which was otherworldly, this was the type of girl who would grow to become a blah blah shocking/shattering beauty in the future.

It was a fact I could confirm since I realized the identity of this girl.

She was Ling Xiaoya.

The heaven-destined child from Ling clan who would grow up to become one of the top ten young talents of heavenly plane alongside Lily.

As a matter of fact, she was also the best friend of Lily in my past life.

A fact, which I always found strange since their past life personalities were totally different.

On one hand was Lily who was as cold as ice. (past life)

On the other was Ling Xiaoya who was a well-known sexy sword maniac.

But I finally understand the reason now.

No.

To be precise, I understood it the moment Ling Xiaoya crash landed in front of me.

Most probably, a similar incident must have occurred in my past life as well.

Attracted by Lily's spirit root, Xiaoya must have fallen in front of her.

Perhaps, it may have been in the slums, or kingdom, or anywhere else.

But she must have had fallen in front of Lily.

Realizing her potential, Xiaoya probably taught Lily cultivation in her past life so that she could ascend with her.

But somewhere along the line, Xiaoya most likely started genuinely caring for Lily and hid her existence from the rest of Ling clan.

This could explain why I never knew Lily originated from lower planes in my past life and why the Ling clan never used this experience as a leverage to gain any advantages from Lily.

Of course, the Xiaoya from my past life is different from the loli in front of me now.

But, I am placing my hopes on the fact that she and Lily share some Karma ties with each other.

Because, what Lily needs now is a friend rather than just me.

A friend to share her burdens and difficulties, so that they can walk together throughout their journey.

And although Lily tries to hide it, I can see that she is highly insecure.

Which is why she has a great dependence on me.

But, continuing to stay in that state will never let her progress.

There is a fine line of difference between protectiveness and possessiveness.

While I am protective towards her, I hold no aims towards binding her to me.

She needs to grow and develop her own path because I cannot always be there for her.

Perhaps interacting with Xiaoya will help her move from her small bubble and be more confident.

Similarly, I need a non-stress life as well.

Along with a good waifu.

Ling Xiaoya's sister is a great candidate for that.

Smart, sexy, and curvy.

Saving a little sister is gonna be a great entry to my credentials.

Who knows, maybe she will even free me from my wizardry.

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

As a responsible future brother-in-law, I will take care of sister-in-law till then.

...…..

Meanwhile in the spiritual plane, Ling Clan.

The entire clan was in panic because of the descent of their genius into the mortal plane- Ling Xiaoya.

However, there was one figure who was not only in panic but in a state of hysteria.

"I need Xiaoya energy. I need to pat her, hug her, pamper her."

A beautiful girl who seemed to be in her early twenties with a nice curvy body was muttering some dangerous stuff lifelessly like a broken robot.

Looking at her eldest daughter's state, the mother consoled her.

"Don't worry too much. If situation turns dire, we can give some benefits to sects with branches in mortal plane to have their people ascend with her."

Perhaps to relieve her own anxiety, the mother then questioned.

"By the way, what will you do if she ends up falling in love with someone?"

Hearing her words, the sister laughed eerily.

The entire residence was shrouded in a deep sense of fear for a few days.
