Chapter 172: 172
Chapter 172: Daoist Yi, you actually have a crush on me!
Li Family residence…
Qin Ruyan couldn’t help shaking her head when she saw Yue Jianli working hard. “Chief Yue, aren’t you too diligent?”
Apart from eating and sleeping these few days, she was basically meditating and cultivating. Her hard work was a bit excessive.
Yue Jianli opened her eyes and exhaled like a white arrow.
“Xiao Qingge’s progress is too fast. I must work harder!”
The Jade Maiden Rakshasa Technique was an Emperor-level cultivation technique, and it was not much inferior to the Burning Heaven Technique.
Xiao Qingge’s innate talent was extraordinary. Coupled with her cheat ‘cultivation method’, she might really be able to catch up to her after a period of time.
Yue Jianli couldn’t accept it.
“What a silly girl!” Qin Ruyan smiled. “Xiao Qingge’s improvement was due to her dual cultivation with Li Ran. If you accompany Li Ran every night, wouldn’t she be unable to ‘cultivate’?”
Yue Jianli whispered, “I’ve tried this method.”
“Hm?” Qin Ruyan asked, “How is the effect?”
Yue Jianli’s face was red as he stammered, “In the end, Xiao Qingge succeeded in dual cultivation.”
“Why…”
Before Qin Ruyan could finish her sentence, she suddenly reacted and her face turned red.
“You two actually…” Yue Jianli was so shy that she couldn’t even raise her head.
Qin Ruyan looked out of the window at Li Ran, who was basking in the sun. Her throat was dry.
“This, this is too outrageous!”
Li Ran was lying on a recliner in the courtyard, lazily basking in the sun. Meanwhile, Xiao Qingge was peeling grapes from the side and feeding him from time to time.
Her black hair was coiled into a bun, and her originally pretty face was now even more clear and beautiful, revealing a pure and holy aura.
After the two of them ‘cultivating’ for the past few days, her cultivation base had become more and more stable, almost reaching the peak of the Golden Core Realm.

“Li Ran, Emperor Sheng has revealed your merits to the world. You really have become a great hero of the human race!” Xiao Qingge’s eyes were filled with worship.
Li Ran shook his head. “It’s just some fake names.”
What World Suppressing Heavenly Devil, could it be eaten?
It was true to quickly send the heavenly treasure over.
At this moment, a voice suddenly rang in his ear. “The Rain Pavilion in the south of the city, come and meet this poor Daoist.”
“Who’s talking?” Li Ran quivered as he sat up.
“No one said anything?” Xiao Qingge asked.
Li Ran dug his ears and muttered, “Could it be that I’m hallucinating? I seem to have heard that old nun’s voice…”
“If you haven’ t arrived within the time it takes an incense stick to burn, then this lowly Daoist will personally pay a visit!
“Also, this lowly one is a Daoist priest, not a nun!”
The voice seemed to be slightly infuriated.
Li Ran gulped.
It really was Yi Qinglan!
Why did she come to Wuyang City? Was it to avenge Lin Langyue?
“Forget it. It’s only a matter of time before we face.” Li Ran sighed and stood up.
Xiao Qingge asked, “Li Ran, are you going out for something?”
Li Ran nodded. “If I haven’t returned after four hours, remember to ask Master to avenge me.”
After saying that, he walked out dejectedly.
Rain Pavilion…
This was the largest teahouse in Central City. Regardless of its location, decoration, or atmosphere, it could be said to be of high quality.
Naturally, Li Ran was also a frequent visitor here.
“Aiyo, Lord Heavenly Devil is here. Come in, come in!”
When the boss saw him walk in, he hurriedly welcomed him.
Ever since the Emperor announced to the world, Li Ran’s reputation in Central City was incomparable. Moreover, everyone’s attitude towards him had changed from fear to reverence.

“Today, Young Master Li is here. All guests will be free of all expenses!” The boss shouted excitedly.
“Good!”
“Young Master Li is here!”
“Young Master Li is still as elegant as ever!”
“As expected of a World Suppressing Heavenly Devil!”
The guests all stood up to greet him.
Li Ran nodded and finally responded.
At this moment, he saw a white figure on the second floor, causing his heart to tremble.
He quickly walked upstairs and saw Yi Qinglan wearing a veil sitting quietly by the window.
“Daoist Yi, we meet again.” Li Ran walked over and sat across from her.
Yi Qinglan glanced at him and her eyes narrowed. “You’ve broken through again?”
Last time, he was at the early Nascent Soul stage, but now, he is at the middle stage.
Moreover, his muscles and bones were strong, and his qi and blood were like dragons. It was as if his body had been rebuilt!
Even she was stunned by the terrifying speed of her cultivation.
Could this person really be the son of the Heavenly Dao?
Li Ran smiled. “I broke through just by casually training. Perhaps I am a genius, right?”
Yi Qinglan shook her head. “If you can be a little less arrogant, you might really be able to reach the peak.”
Li Ran shrugged. “What Daoist Yi means is that you want me to be a heartless ice cube just like you? It doesn’t matter if I don’t reach the peak then.
“An ice cube without love…”
This was the first time Yi Qinglan had heard someone describe her like this.
She didn’t get angry and said indifferently, “Do you know that this arrogant and conceited personality might lead to death for you?”
“If anyone can kill me, then I’ll just kill them.” Li Ran didn’t care, “A dead man is like a bird in the sky. If he doesn’t die for tens of thousands of years, he’s afraid of an egg…”
“Stop.” Yi Qinglan couldn’t help but interrupt.
What they were talking about was a mess. Why was it that every time she chatted with him, it would be led away…
Li Ran asked, “Why did Daoist Yi come looking for me this time?”
Could it really be that she was here to kill him?
“This humble Daoist came here to remind you. You absolutely must not put yourself in a dangerous situation. No matter what, you have to live well.”
Yi Qinglan said, “If you encounter danger and Leng Wuyan doesn’t appear, you can go to the Youluo Temple to find me.”
“Ah?” Li Ran was taken aback and couldn’t believe it. “Is Daoist Yi concerned about me?”
Yi Qinglan nodded. “Remember, your life isn’t just yours, it’s also related to me…”
Before she could finish her sentence, Li Ran’s face was filled with fear. He clutched his collar tightly as if he was facing a group of strong and weak young girls.
Yi Qinglan frowned. “What’s wrong with you?”
Li Ran gulped and said in a trembling voice, “Daoist Yi, you don’t like me, do you?”
Why else would he come to Wuyang City just to care about him?
He even said that he would go to the Tianshu Institute to find her if he ever faced danger.
What a fierce pursuit!
Yi Qinglan was speechless. “……”
Li Ran said nervously, “Don’ t think that you can force me to submit just because you’re an Emperor Realm expert. I’m mighty and I won’t yield… Why don’t you take off your veil first? I’ll consider it after I see you.”
“Forget it. I’ll kill him,” Yi Qinglan said to herself expressionlessly.

Entangled Fates Book 1 - Quantum Beginnings
“By far, the greatest danger of Artificial Intelligence is that people conclude too early that they understand it.” —Eliezer Yudkowsky Hey all, we're moving over to book 2. This content is in a state of transition. The book is now availble on Amazon (includes extra chapters): https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07W1534R8 Artificial intelligence was nearly mankind’s last invention. AI took off like a rocket, then when it racked up an impressive death toll, it crashed before it could blossom and took most high-tech industries with it. Resistance and fears became deep-set. Two decades after the infamous Rev. 4.6 incidents, humanity hasn’t quit dreaming of the wealth and power that could be at their fingertips. A new generation of mega-corporations rose from the ashes. When one melds a quantum computer to a barely functional mental patient as a PR move, there are those who seek to profit, those who want to destroy it, and Alex. Alex Sage is a typical college student trying to keep up his grades and maybe find a meaningful connection with the fairer sex. Then, an automated semi crashes into his home, killing his family and turning his head into a pin cushion in the process. Alex awakens to find most of his memories gone and an illegal AI hidden in his brain implant. Now the pet project of a tech billionaire and heavily in debt, Alex struggles to stay valuable enough to be kept online. Still grappling with the repercussions of his injuries, and threats from a dangerous anti-augmentation political movement, there are no easy answers and threats loom around every corner. Alex must use whatever resources he can to escape from under the thumb of a ruthless corporation, while keeping those he comes to love safe. Chapters will stay up on RRL until Aug 10. It'll go up on Kindle Unlimited after that. How do you get those extra chapters I didn't have planned for RR? If you want them, they'll be in the published book. Book 2 will still make sense without them - I made sure of that. But... isn't $3 a lot for extra chapters? Think of it as tipping me for a good job and you'd also be getting my eternal thanks. If you enjoyed it so much that the idea of missing out a few chapters haunts you, I did my job as an author and made an engaging story. What's in those extra chapters? Resolving a few issues, set up for the cybernetic revolution, a rather intense sex scene with a new partner, revelations of who's really pulling strings, and a bit of set up for book 2. Complaints that people missed out on it when it was published here won't help (sorry!). I posted this for the folks who helped me shape the book, which is you all! (Again, yay!) But... Why! Why not keep it all on RR forever? My editor likes being paid for one. For two, I'd like the ability to get broader readership. If I break even on editor costs, I'll be incredibly happy. What about book 2? Drafts for Book 2 will go up around Sept 10. My draft of Book 2 is done, and it will be handed to the editor once Book 1 is published. Feedback has been even more positive. Beta readers devoured it and wanted more. I'll add a link to Book 2 once it's up on RR. I'm more or less, using you all for Beta Readers, so you get it before it's "canon" and edited. I invite active and meaningful feedback during this process. In return, you get early access to chapters. That does mean that the book content or plot might be adjusted before it gets published as I refine it. Sex Y/N? Yes. I heard the feedback, 90% wanted it explicit. You all will get the "full" experience. Will I dump all of book 2 here? Honestly, I'm not sure yet. At a minimum, it'll be up to the 75% mark as we collect feedback, much like what I did with book 1. It really depends on how good the feedback is and how nice people are. Lots of support + meaningful feedback to make it better = higher likelihood you get all the book. Will be it up here indefinitely? No, it'll probably go up on KU at some point, but I'll make sure there's enough time for a large readership to grab it here. Then we move to book 3 which already is around 60K words already. What about other adventures in the same universe/characters? Yep. Absolutely. Nothing ready to share yet though. I plan to keep those side chapters and more slice of life stories as RR exclusive. Since I'm carving this off in book-sized segments, I'll have to figure out where those disconnected story arcs belong. I'm open to suggestions.
