Li Wei revealed a confident smile and said, "Then, I will break the cage that Qian Dong is in."

Chifuyu Orimura is warm-hearted, but as a member of the family, she knows her own situation. The predicament she faces is not something that a young man like Li Wei can solve.

“I am very grateful that you are willing to help me, Li Weijun, but my problem is not as simple as you think, and it will also cause you trouble,” Chifuyu Orimura said.

"I know that helping you, Sister Qiandong, will definitely cause trouble. But I'm a stubborn person, and I'm not afraid of trouble at all," Li Wei said with a smile.

Chapter 1. Mental Defense

Chifuyu Orimura wasn't a naive girl lacking social experience, and Li Wei didn't expect to win her over easily. He just wanted to steadily advance the process. Besides, he was the only male in the academy, except for Natsumi Orimura, which was his biggest advantage.

With Natsumi Orimura already socially dead, and with the Genie's clone keeping an eye on her, he wasn't worried about her making any trouble. After all, Natsumi was just an ordinary person and couldn't cause any problems under his nose.

Li Wei said, "I have quite a bit of experience in being a good listener. If you have any troubles, Qian Dong, you can tell me. Maybe I can find a solution."

Chifuyu Orimura smiled, then chopped Li Wei on the head and laughed, "You're just a kid, yet you're talking like an adult. The problems I'm facing aren't the kind of teenage troubles you guys have. They're not so easy to solve."

Shinonono Houki said from the side, "How can we know such a thing? There is an old saying in Chongguo, 'Three cobblers are equal to one Zhuge Liang.' There are advantages to having many people. Maybe we can find a solution to the problem."

Chifuyu Orimura sighed, "Hou, there are some things that you shouldn't know at your age. These things are too early for you. Let's talk about them when you go to university. By then, I think you will be mentally prepared to come into contact with the dark side of this world."

Cecilia raised her hand and said, "Can I know in advance? I come from a noble family, after all. I've seen plenty of messy intrigues and schemes. I should be qualified to know about things, right?"

Chifuyu Orimura delivered a chop to Cecilia's head, successfully forcing her to crouch and cover her head in defense.

“You, Houki, and Li Wei are just kids. Those things are too early for you. I will tell you when the time is right,” Chifuyu Orimura said with a smile.

Li Wei knew that the time was not yet ripe. Chifuyu Orimura did not have absolute trust in him yet, and at present she only regarded him as a junior with whom she had a good relationship, and treated him like an older sister to her younger brother.

Li Wei understood that Chifuyu Orimura had transferred her feelings for her younger brother, Natsumi Orimura, onto him, but this was not the kind of relationship he wanted. What he wanted was something more progressive, a closer relationship in a romantic sense.

During the barbecue, Li Wei was also secretly observing the teachers. Although Yamada Maya was petite, she was quite well-endowed. Today, she was wearing a two-piece bikini with light green and warm yellow stripes. This unusual color scheme was probably to match her already rare emerald green skin.

To be honest, green is a very rare color, even in all dimensions. The green-haired female characters that Li Wei remembers most are Tatsumaki and Fubuki from "Punch Man", Ranka Lee from "Macross Frontier", C.C. from "Code Geass", Princess Hatsune Miku and her sister GUMI from "The World's Number One", and Lucoa from "Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid". Strictly speaking, Lucoa's color is not pure green, but rather a mixture of yellow, green and purple, but she can still be classified as a green girl.

As for the other green-clad female characters, Li Wei didn't have a deep impression of them, so he didn't mention them. Although there are many beautiful female characters in anime, Li Wei still had options. Some of these beauties, due to their personalities or other flaws, were, in Li Wei's opinion, only to be admired from afar and not to be touched. Bringing them home would be a hassle.

Li Wei glanced at Yamada Maya out of the corner of his eye. Because of the angle, Yamada Maya was unaware that Li Wei was looking at her. Although he had already scanned every part of Yamada Maya's body with his senses, and Li Wei had more authority than Yamada Maya herself about her body data, some things are still more comfortable to appreciate with the eyes.

(The so-called legal loli must be someone like Maya-nee, right? Not only is she beautiful, but her figure is also terrifyingly good. It's hard to believe that such a petite girl could have such a figure. Hmm... I guess it's just like the dimensional world. Hmm, Chifuyu-nee is also quite good. The black bikini is really cool and aloof. If Chifuyu-nee could take better care of her hair, it would be even better.)

Li Wei's thinking is off the charts, his thought process is far beyond that of ordinary people, and his mind is always running a roast session, of course, in a stand-up comedy style.

Li Wei's gaze fell on Chifuyu Orimura beside him. Today, Chifuyu Orimura had chosen a plain black bikini, a traditional style without any fancy details. It could be said to be both conservative and bold, merging two completely extreme attributes into one.

It sounds complicated, but it's actually quite simple to understand: Chifuyu Iriza chose the most classic and retro traditional bikini style. While this traditional style may not be as eye-catching as some of the more unconventional new designs, it's incredibly timeless and its retro beauty is evident from every angle.

However, this style, which lacks any distinctive features or recognizability, places the highest demands on the wearer. Both appearance and physique must meet certain standards; otherwise, such a style will only accentuate one's imperfections.

(Usually, Chifuyu wears either a teacher's uniform skirt or loose sportswear, with a rather rigid style. Surprisingly, even her bikini at the beach is a retro style, which reveals a bit about her personality. But then again, her figure is just right—any more and she'd look too plump, any less and she'd look too thin—and she even has a subtle hint of muscle definition. That's amazing!)

Li Wei has no prejudice against protein queens who like fitness, but if girls build too much muscle, it will have certain negative effects on their bodies. These negative effects include excessive weight-bearing on the bones and forced compression of the heart's blood supply capacity, which can easily lead to heart failure.

A physique like Chifuyu Orimura's, which balances endurance and strength, is, from an ordinary person's perspective, a near-perfect body.

Chifuyu Orimura placed the novel she was reading on a bookmark, put the book on the recliner, and focused on arranging the food on the grill. The food was now half-cooked, and it was easy to burn it if she wasn't careful. It's easy to make a mistake if you're not paying attention.

Li Wei fiddled with the skewers of food he had placed on the grill and said, "I didn't expect to run into Sister Qian Dong and Sister Zhen Ye here today. I didn't know they also did barbecue. If I had known they did barbecue, I would have prepared the ingredients in advance. I have mastered a lot of secret recipes for barbecue ingredients. Whether it's dipping sauce or brushing on seasoning, they are much better than ordinary ready-made ones."

Chifuyu Orimura said, "I don't know much about cooking. This crab sauce was bought directly from outside the academy. As for the taste, I can only say it's okay."

Chifuyu Orimura doesn't have much free time on weekdays, so things like cooking, which cultivate her mind and spirit, are a luxury for her.

If you ask her to cook, she can only guarantee that the food is cooked through and won't cause any health problems. As for the taste, it's just ordinary home cooking, nothing to do with culinary enthusiasts or professionals.

Chapter 1. Relaxation Moments

Enjoying barbecue, drinking iced cola, and admiring beautiful women, Li Wei found this kind of life quite comfortable. However, as a cultivator, Li Wei knew that the biggest test he would face was actually time.

Cultivators are immortal beings. The lifespan of ordinary people is like a station on the journey of life that cannot be reversed. Once it is passed, there is no way to go back.

The theory of lifespan is inherently cruel. Without his help and protection, even a beauty like Chifuyu Orimura would gradually wither with time. The beauty of a woman has a very short shelf life.

Li Wei found an option to exchange for traditional cultivation novels in the system, so he exchanged for a few to read, wanting to experience the feelings of a traditional cultivator. Then he was overwhelmed.

The reason why time is said to be the greatest enemy of cultivators is that after embarking on the path of cultivation, the cultivator's family and friends will leave one by one, until in the end, the cultivator will become a lonely person.

It was precisely because of this that Li Wei felt fortunate that the introductory cultivation method was the "Yellow Emperor's Ascension Scripture," which allowed his partner to keep up with him and prevent the situation of "beauty turning to bones."

Traditional cultivators are often perceived as heartless, not because they are truly heartless, but because their emotions are so abundant and easily wounded, that they dare not open their hearts to others.

Just like ordinary people, when a cat or dog leaves after a few years, they feel sad. But when a loved one leaves forever, that sadness and pain are doubled, leaving a feeling of sudden emptiness. For cultivators, such things will only happen more and more often. Ultimately, cultivators will transcend time, becoming individuals forgotten by time. Even if they achieve "great freedom," they will ultimately be left alone to face loneliness.

Therefore, the idea that cultivators are becoming increasingly ruthless is merely a facade. The truth is that cultivators simply don't want to get hurt. As long as they don't interact with each other, they won't develop feelings, and without feelings, they won't feel sad when the other person leaves.

Having learned this, Li Wei saw cultivating immortality as a bittersweet experience. He also knew how fortunate he was to have so many gentle and considerate beauties by his side; he would never feel lonely, and the floating island was his home.

As for his parents, Li Wei had a good plan. If they were willing to accept superhuman powers, he would find a way to help them embark on the path of cultivation. If they were not, he would let them pass away peacefully. However, Li Wei hoped that his parents would choose the path of transcendence, and he was already able to pave the way for them. As long as they nodded, he could guide them step by step on their journey of cultivation.

Li Wei stopped his racing thoughts. Thinking too fast also has its downsides, namely, it makes it easy for all sorts of strange and bizarre imaginings to occur. In addition, he has to control so many puppet clones at the same time, so Li Wei is now prone to falling into a state of "delusion".

Li Wei pressed down the wielder that was waving in front of him and said, "I wasn't daydreaming, I was just thinking about something."

"Is it something important?" Shinobu asked softly. She wasn't an immature girl and knew that she was disturbing Li Wei's serious thoughts, which was not a good thing.

Li Wei placed his hand on Shinonono Houki's head, gently stroking her black hair, and said softly, "It's just some trivial matter of life, but I was distracted while I was with you all, and that was indeed my fault."

Shinonono Houki placed the grilled skewers she had prepared in front of Li Wei and said with a smile, "Although I didn't do the preparation work beforehand, I personally handled the grilling stage. Please taste them and see if they're cooked to perfection."

Li Wei took the skewer without hesitation, put it in his mouth and took a bite. As for the taste, it was relatively weak compared to his own cooking skills, but by the standards of an ordinary person, it was already above average.

"It's pretty good. As for the heat, you could try cooking it for a little longer. After all, this is food that was taken out of the freezer, so even if it's cooked for a long time, it shouldn't be a problem." Li Wei gave a relatively fair evaluation.

After all, there's no point in lying about this kind of thing. Shinonono Houki's cooking skills are just so-so, and her barbecue skills are even worse. Even if he praises her to the skies, others will know what's going on once they taste it.

"Hmm, it seems there's still room for improvement." Shinonono Houki gently slapped away Li Wei's hand that was on her head. She didn't feel any resistance to Li Wei patting her head, but Li Wei's actions made her feel like she was being treated like a child. What she wanted was to be treated as an equal with Li Wei, not to be taken care of by Li Wei like a younger sister.

Li Wei handed the skewers he had grilled to Shinobu. Shinobu took the skewers and began to taste them. Then she realized the difference in their skills. She felt that she had lost, that she had actually lost to Li Wei, a man her own age, in cooking.

Li Wei said, "I am indeed much more familiar with barbecue than you are with it. After all, when I travel around the world, I often encounter remote and desolate places with no village or shop in sight. Barbecue is probably the cooking skill I am most familiar with. I can say that I am an expert in controlling the heat when barbecuing."

Shinobu realized that she had forgotten that Li Wei had once lived in the world. As someone who had been traveling around for a long time, it was normal for her to have all sorts of random skills. Losing to Li Wei in barbecue skills was not something to be ashamed of.

The sumptuous barbecue feast put everyone in a great mood. However, apart from Li Wei, everyone present was a girl, and they were all very conscious of their figures, so they did not indulge their appetites.

After resting for a while, Cecilia said, "How about we play a watermelon-smashing game now? Levi specially bought two watermelons."

Chifuyu Orimura saw the watermelon under Li Wei's recliner and laughed, "I remember I loved playing this game when I was a kid, but back then, watermelons were quite expensive in Japan, and I was even scolded by my parents for it."

Chifuyu Orimura thought of her past. Her family was just an ordinary middle-class family. They could afford to buy a few watermelons occasionally to satisfy their cravings, but if she wanted to play the watermelon-smashing game on the beach, she wouldn't be able to, even if she got a good spanking. Now, although she could easily fulfill her childhood wishes, the joy she felt back then was hard to find again.

Chapter 1. Little Secret

Cecilia grabbed Levi's arm and laughed, "When can the game start? I can't wait!"

Seeing Cecilia grab Levi's arm and press it so hard it was deformed, Houki Shinonono felt a surge of resentment. She quickly grabbed Levi's arm from the other side and pressed herself against it as well.

Seeing this scene, Chifuyu Orimura smiled like an aunt. She already regarded Li Wei as her younger brother. Seeing Li Wei trapped in such a small Shura field, she found it quite interesting. This scene was full of the bittersweet feelings of youth, giving her the illusion that she had traveled through time.

"Okay, okay, I understand. Let me go now, I can't get the watermelon." Li Wei said.

Although Shinobu and Cecilia were very reluctant, they still let go of Levi's arm.

Chifuyu Orimura looked at the two slightly reserved girls with a playful smile. She wasn't blind; how could she not see that both girls had feelings for Li Wei? To be honest, if she were ten years younger, she would have been just like them, captivated by Li Wei's gentleness. However, now she was the students' teacher and their protector; she had her own identity and stance.

Chifuyu Orimura sighed inwardly. She recalled an ancient saying from the Kingdom of Okinawa: "I was born before you were born, and you were born after I had grown old." Although the age difference between them wasn't a generation, it was still close to ten years, which, if not strictly calculated, was already half a generation.

Knowing this, she understood that even if she was attracted to him, she could only exist as his older sister. After all, women age more easily than men. When Li Wei was in the prime of her life, she had already begun to age. Time is the cruelest thing in the world. Even she, who was known as the world's strongest IS pilot, was powerless and humble in the face of the torrent of time.

However, being able to watch Li Wei grow up like this is a good thing for her. After all, liking someone doesn't mean you have to possess them. Keeping this feeling deep in your heart is the best choice for both of you.

Li Wei noticed Chifuyu Orimura's inner thoughts and was somewhat surprised, but he didn't care about the age issue. To him, age was the most boring problem, and he had a way to solve it.

Moreover, as the saying goes, "A woman three thousand years older than him will be among the immortals, and a woman thirty thousand years older will be fed by the Queen Mother of the West." He doesn't mind if the woman is older than him, as long as she is beautiful and kind-hearted, he thinks it's suitable.

The actual age difference between Chifuyu Orimura and Levi is only a few years. If you take into account the time spent adventuring in various worlds, Chifuyu Orimura and Levi are the same age. Chifuyu Orimura's worries are completely unnecessary.

Li Wei took out the watermelon he had placed under the beach chair, gently patted off the sand stuck to it, and placed it in front of everyone.

Li Wei took out the blindfold and said, "I've prepared all the game props, and we can start anytime."

Because they needed to start the game, Li Wei and Chifuyu Orimura carried the barbecue grill back to the rental shop.

On the way back to the beach, the two of them were not walking very fast. Just as they were walking side by side, Li Wei suddenly reached out and took Chifuyu Orimura's hand.

Chifuyu Orimura's body trembled almost imperceptibly, but she did not immediately shake off Li Wei's hand. She simply said, "Is there something you need, Li Wei?"

Li Wei gripped Chifuyu's hand tightly, their fingers intertwined. Chifuyu, realizing what was happening, tried to pull away, but she was no match for Li Wei's strength. She tried to shake him off several times but couldn't. Instead, she acted like a little girl being affectionate with her boyfriend.

Li Wei said, "Sister Qiandong, I have a special ability to roughly sense changes in other people's emotions. I sensed sadness in you just now."

Chifuyu Orimura was slightly surprised, but she didn't take Li Wei's words seriously. After all, she had dealt with intelligence agents who could observe the target's situation through micro-expressions before, and there weren't that many magical things in this world.

Li Wei said, "I know you won't believe it, Qian Dong, but what if it's like this..."

Li Wei gently brushed the hair behind Chifuyu Orimura's ear with his other hand. Chifuyu felt a slight tickle on her ear, and then she saw something surprising out of the corner of her eye: a flower wreath suddenly appeared above her head. She could not only see the beautiful flowers, but also touch them and even smell their faint fragrance.

Chifuyu Orimura looked surprised. She took off the flower wreath from her head. The wreath seemed to be alive, and it kept blooming more flowers. She looked around, but no one around her noticed anything unusual.

Li Wei said, "Sister Qian Dong, as one of the few men in the world who can activate IS armor, it's not too much to say that I have some special abilities."

Looking at Li Wei's sunny smile, Chifuyu Orimura didn't know what to say, but this situation was something she hadn't expected.

Chifuyu Orimura took a deep breath to calm herself down and said, "...Is this a superpower?"

Li Wei smiled and said, "This is a power that far surpasses superpowers. The reason I dare to travel the world alone is because I have enough power to protect myself, and I will also use this power to protect the people around me. Although I don't know what you've been through, Qian Dong, no matter what, I will stand firmly by your side."

Chifuyu Orimura asked, "Are there any other people in the academy who know about your abilities?"
