Chapter 42: Chapter 42: The Hairless Monster
Translator: 549690339
In the evening, at Fanhua Shopping Center.
Jiang Cheng kept his promise and brought Liu Qing here to buy clothes.
The bright lights of the shopping center, the flowing crowd, and the dazzling array of goods made one’s head spin and eyes dart around.
Liu Qing seemed to be curious about everything in the shopping center.
She followed behind Jiang Cheng, her beautiful eyes constantly sweeping over the surroundings.
Although she hadn’t been in human society for long, through her observations during this time, she had begun to understand why this single human race could continuously develop and eventually suppress the entire Demon Race with one hand.
Creativity.
Liu Qing felt that the problem lay in creativity.
Whether it was the various cultivation techniques or the dazzling array of goods, human creativity was something the Demon Race couldn’t even come close to matching.
While the Demon Race still took pride in the “ancient ways of their ancestors,” humans had already started a revolution in Immortal Law.
Not to mention other humans, just her “male friend” Jiang Cheng alone possessed exceptional creativity unlike ordinary people.
Even though Jiang Cheng’s cultivation level was only at the third level of Qi Practicing, Liu Qing inexplicably felt that Jiang Cheng was more formidable than many high-level cultivators. He would surely accomplish something earth-shattering in the future.
Jiang Cheng’s sense of smell was not keen at all, unlike Liu Qing who could directly smell information in the air, so he didn’t notice the cunning thoughts of the great demoness beside him.
His attention was mainly on selecting stores.
The prevailing trends in modern Liang Kingdom had become relatively open. Clothes that revealed more skin or were tight enough to accentuate the figure were available in every clothing store.
Liu Qing was already very beautiful, and if she dressed even more attractively, Jiang Cheng feared that he would be dragged into some undeserved disasters.
Just like Lin Yao.
Even if Jiang Cheng did nothing, as long as Lin Yao was by his side, he would inevitably become the focus of everyone’s attention, with no chance of living a peaceful life.
After careful selection, Jiang Cheng set his sights on a store selling “New-style Ancient Fashion” for women.
The clothes in this store were mainly modified ancient dresses that were dignified and elegant, not revealing the slightest bit, which was perfect for the physique of the Snake Demoness baby.
“Let’s buy from this store,” Jiang Cheng said.
“Mm,” Liu Qing simply followed Jiang Cheng.
As soon as the two entered the store, a female cultivator sales associate came up to greet them.
Without waiting for the sales associate to speak, Jiang Cheng preemptively said, “She’s my friend, we’re not in that kind of relationship.”
The female cultivator was startled and thought to herself: The pot calling the kettle black? You’re not in that kind of relationship yet you’re buying clothes for her? Do people really believe that there’s such a thing as a platonic relationship between men and women?
No matter what the sales associate thought internally, her face was still brimming with enthusiasm as she greeted, “Welcome. What can I help you with? We have fairyland styles, former dynasty styles, and…”
The sales associate rambled on while Liu Qing looked at Jiang Cheng with a perplexed expression on her face.
Subsequently, the sales associate could only turn to Jiang Cheng.
Jiang Cheng cleared his throat and said, “Find some simple and proper clothes. She doesn’t like ones that are too progressive, preferably more conservative.”
The sales associate went off to work.
Meanwhile, Liu Qing softly said, “Jiang Cheng, progressive.”
“No, you’re not going to be progressive,” Jiang Cheng interrupted bluntly.
Liu Qing furrowed her brows slightly, apparently dissatisfied with Jiang Cheng’s decision.
In her own eyes, she was certainly part of the progressive faction within the Demon Race, without a doubt. ÚpTodated 𝒏ov𝒆ls on 𝒏o(v)𝒆l()bin(.)c𝒐m
Jiang Cheng knew what she was thinking and explained, “The progressiveness of thought and that of the body are two different things. Wearing conservative clothes does not conflict with doing progressive things. If you don’t understand the contradiction and unity of opposition, then it means you’re still far from true progressiveness.”
After listening to Jiang Cheng, Liu Qing’s beautiful brows did not relax; instead, they furrowed even tighter.
She could faintly feel that within Jiang Cheng’s words, there was a power belonging to the Great Way. If she could grasp it, her cultivation level might reach an even higher level.
“Don’t overthink it. Just live in the moment. The world will keep spinning without anyone. Please believe in the power of programmers,” Jiang Cheng comforted.
“Programmer, is that some kind of monster?”
“A very weak kind of monster, and also hairless.”
Liu Qing: ?
Before long, the sales clerk found many clothes that met Jiang Cheng’s requirements.
Liu Qing looked at these clothes, blinked her clear eyes, and turned to look at Jiang Cheng.
Jiang Cheng felt that Liu Qing was a bit too dependent on him.
After all, she was the one with sky-high cultivation powers, a tremendous cultivator!
Why does she always need him, a noob, to make decisions?
Unfortunately, Jiang Cheng was a data planner and didn’t know much about the plot or the character settings for leading ladies, so he couldn’t guess what the enchantress was thinking.
But one thing he was sure of—he should never underestimate Liu Qing.
Liu Qing was an impressive Level 83 boss, a creature who had lived for more than two thousand years, definitely not a fool!
“You choose for yourself. If you like something, take it to the fitting room and try it on,” Jiang Cheng said. Then he quietly instructed the sales clerk, “Please take extra care of her while she’s changing. She might not be very good at putting on clothes. I mean, she is quite clumsy.”
“Sure, no problem,” the sales clerk agreed cheerfully.
Even if Jiang Cheng hadn’t mentioned it, the sales clerk would have paid extra attention to Liu Qing. After all, female cultivators might be even more fond of a pretty female cultivator, and Liu Qing was definitely in the very pretty category.
Watching the sales clerk lead Liu Qing to the fitting rooms, Jiang Cheng sighed silently.
Taking a woman out to buy clothes is really not easy.
If he was going to look for a partner in the future, he’d better find someone who was less trouble.
While Jiang Cheng was waiting, bored, two unexpected people also came to the women’s clothing store.
“Are you… Jiang Cheng?”
A female cultivator’s voice suddenly rang out by Jiang Cheng’s ear.
Jiang Cheng frowned slightly, finding the voice quite familiar.
Turning around abruptly, he saw a young man and woman. The woman was beautiful, and the man was handsome, and Jiang Cheng happened to know both of them.
“Xie Linshan? Chen Shuai?”
This Chen Shuai was the son of Chen Qiming.
He, too, was surprised: “Jiang Cheng? What are you doing here?”
Just like every class has a top student and a bottom student, every class has a class belle and a wealthy handsome boy.
In Lin Yao’s class, the class belle was naturally Lin Yao, and the wealthy handsome boy was Tang Qian’s boyfriend, Zhou Yiwen.
When it came to Jiang Cheng’s class, the class belle was Xie Linshan, and the wealthy handsome boy was the generous son of the Forestry Bureau director, Chen Shuai.
If Jiang Cheng remembered correctly, Chen Shuai was once one of the many valiant suitors chasing Lin Yao. With the academic performances of Zhou Yiwen and Chen Shuai, they were highly likely to attend the same university as Lin Yao. Then at university, they would continue to be led on by Lin Yao, acting as her lapdogs.
However, what was strange was that after the college entrance exam, both Zhou Yiwen and Chen Shuai inexplicably gave up on Lin Yao and chose other female cultivators instead.
This was somewhat incomprehensible to Jiang Cheng.
Lin Yao hadn’t changed during that time. Why did they both give up on her?
Could it be that the enchantress of the Demonic Tao had suddenly become kind-hearted and didn’t want to string them along anymore?
She was an enchantress of the Demonic Tao, after all.
Could she really be that benevolent?
