"Why are you pretending? You think I can't see you did it on purpose? Little Beaker... You deliberately used fighting to arouse my instincts, and then deliberately lost to me..."
"I didn't lose on purpose. I was clearly fighting very seriously...it's just~ah? It's just that I couldn't withstand your rough brute force..." Li Sijie argued cunningly.
Soon, with a low roar, both of them reached the climax of happiness.
Chapter 431 See the light of day again
The next day, Li Si stayed in Li Xuan's bedroom for the whole day. Li Xuan gave her some medicinal wine to reduce the swelling, and Li Si frowned in pain.
"I won't dare to do it again next time...it's a bit weird." Li Sijie said while rubbing her belly.
"How can I start a harem without the necessary skills? If I didn't have this ability, I would be squeezed into dregs in minutes." Li Xuan said with a smile.
"Ah, actually, if I have to blame someone, it's all because Miss Cecilia is too attractive. I got aroused and wanted to borrow a glass of water from you to cool down, but I didn't expect the fire truck to come..." Li Sijie said regretfully.
"Pfft~ Your metaphor..."
"Okay! This is so embarrassing. You go out, I will apply it myself..." Li Sijie covered her legs with the quilt in shame and stretched out her foot to kick Li Xuan out.
"Don't be so anxious to get rid of me. I have something else to tell you." Li Xuan grabbed her feet with a smile and started playing with them in his hands.
Even though her skin was swollen like a bun, Li Sijie refused to take off her socks, as if socks were a necessity for her survival and could not be separated from her for even a moment, like air.
"I just want to lie down now and don't want to do anything..." Li Sijie said as she lay down.
"It's about the Lost Land. I plan to use this place as a rear base, but it would be too troublesome if I need you to open the shield every time. Besides, your whereabouts are uncertain, and I can't find you at any time." Li Xuan said.
"It's not impossible if we spend some time. But the problem is that if the shielding is opened, it will no longer be safe here." Li Sijie said doubtfully.
"This is what I think: the False Evil Land is an independent world. It can connect to the Lost Land and the outside world. But because of the existence of the shield, the two cannot exist at the same time. So I wonder if there is a way to use the False Evil Land as a transit station to connect the Lost Land and the outside world in disguise?" Li Xuan asked.
Li Sijie's eyes lit up when she heard this: "Good idea! This way we can avoid the risk of the Lost Land being invaded by magical girls."
"How is it? Can it be done?"
"Mr. Li, actually this plan does not require my help. You only need a stable space channel to connect the two worlds. In this way, even if you leave the Lost Land, the channel will not be closed. But considering the isolation effect of the 'world', this channel must be extremely strong in structure. The usual portal that can be opened and left at any time will definitely not work." Li Sijie said.
"I can open a space channel. As for whether it is sturdy, we can only know after trying it." Li Xuan nodded.
So, while Li Sijie was recuperating, Li Xuan mobilized the authority of the False Evil Land and created three permanent, two-way spatial passages. The entrances were placed on the huge platform that had been temporarily used by the monsters, and the exits were located near the royal cities of the wolf, fox, and spider tribes. Each entrance and exit was restricted, and no one could pass without his permission.
This permanent channel had indicated "current mental strength cannot support" when Li Xuan checked it last time, but now it can not only be opened, but the preparation time that originally required 144 hours has also been shortened to 24 hours, which shows how much his mental strength has improved.
After the tunnel was built, Li Sijie had almost finished her rest. Seeing that everything was ready, Li Xuan opened the portal and came to the Black Crystal Research Institute.
Wang Li was here studying his new weapon with Tang Xi. He had already drawn more than a dozen sketches and made several models.
"My benefactor!" When Wang Li saw Li Xuan, he put down his work and rushed over enthusiastically.
"Do you have a sketch yet? Has the material problem been solved?" Li Xuan asked curiously.
"The materials have been found. Miss Tang Xi helped improve the refining process, allowing me to produce stronger materials. Coupled with the reinforced barrier engraved by Grandma Xingbai, it can theoretically withstand the power of the master." Wang Li nodded.
"Let's put the work on hold for a while, we are about to leave the Lost Land." Li Xuan said.
Wang Li shuddered upon hearing this: "Really? I can see the legendary blue sky!"
"That's right, but you can't transform like a witch. Even if you reduce the level of evil energy to the lowest, you can't be completely unnoticed, so I can't take too many people out at once." Li Xuan said.
"If there are not enough places, I can stay in the Lost Land and give the opportunity to Sister Peroxia." Wang Li said nervously.
"It's not that few." Li Xuan smiled: "I plan to take you, Perosha, Xingbai, Qianji, as well as Reiga and Perol. In addition, let's add another thirty places." Li Xuan said.
"If that's the case, there are still plenty of places available." Wang Li breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes full of anticipation.
Wang Li and Peroxia discussed the matter, and thirty spots were quickly drawn up. Besides their most loyal subordinates and maids, other races were also allocated spots based on population proportion. Wang Li, understanding Li Xuan's intentions, thoughtfully gave all the spots to attractive monster girls, adding a touch of spring to the trip.
Li Xuan asked these people to gather in a hall, put on collars that could conceal their breath, and then he and Li Sijie came to the edge of the Lost Land and opened the shield of the world just as they did when they came in.
As soon as Li Xuan came out of the evil land of illusion, he immediately felt his vision opened up. The long-lost blue sky and white clouds and the infinitely vast sea made him quite excited. He even felt like he had just been released from prison.
The two of them took a few deep breaths, then took out the map and began to discuss where to stay.
After some discussion, Li Xuan chose an inconspicuous uninhabited island in the southeast of the New Sun Kingdom as the address. Although this island is also the territory of the New Sun Kingdom, it is very desolate and remote, and there are no usable resources, so it doesn't even have a name.
If we gather here, it will probably be less likely to attract the attention of magical girls.
After selecting the place, Li Xuan opened the space channel, connected the island with the illusory evil land, and teleported the witch and the reserved monsters over one after another.
The witches had not been outside for a long time and were extremely excited; most of the monsters had never seen such a beautiful sky and bright environment since they were born, and they danced with excitement and could not stop for a long time.
Since so many people had gathered, they naturally couldn't just sit there and do nothing. Li Xuan had the maids bring in all kinds of food, drinks, and fresh vegetables from the garden, and they held a grand banquet.
This time, there were over a hundred witches in attendance, making it a truly grand gathering. Everyone drank and chatted, and the witch band performed their signature repertoire, creating a truly joyful atmosphere. Li Sijie also donned a maid outfit and served as a waitress at the banquet. Despite the bitterly cold weather, the enthusiasm of the attendees couldn't be dampened.
Chapter 432 Pretending to be a boyfriend
At the banquet, Li Xuan also gave Perrol and Rega the status of maids, allowing them to stay and work in the Evil Land of Falsehood, and issued them black crystal nameplates - although they were made of the same material, they were not as exquisite as the nameplates of senior members and were also smaller in size.
After the banquet, Li Xuan announced the list of witches who stayed in the Lost Land: Tang Xi, Tan Xiang and the five members of the Witch Band were stationed in the Lost Land and worked in the Black Crystal Research Institute - of course, because of the establishment of the space channel, Li Xuan could also dispatch them when he needed them.
By this time, everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, so Li Xuan sent them to the Evil Land of Illusion to rest. Lilika remained aloof throughout the entire banquet, flitting around with Lonai and the two newly promoted sisters, handling various matters at the banquet until they were sure everyone was safely in bed.
"Being a maid is really hard. Miss Lilika is really great." Li Sijie had changed out of her maid outfit and put on her original clothes without her knowing. She cast a magic spell and erased all traces of the banquet on the island.
"You are so free. I didn't arrange for you to be a maid, but you insisted on joining in the fun." Li Xuan smiled, opened the portal, and brought Li Sijie back to his bedroom for some warmth.
"Anyway, we're about to part ways, and I want to do something for you one last time. Besides, it's a happy thing for me to shuttle between banquets and admire the drunken look of each witch." Li Sijie said with a smile.
"Shall I take you back to Qinghe City tomorrow? I have some small things to do there as well." Li Xuan said.
"Even if you don't ask, I would still ask you to send me back. Without your teleportation, it would be a bit conspicuous for me to fly back like this. And besides that, there is something I am considering whether to ask you for help." Li Sijie said.
"I can't help you with your thesis."
"It's not that serious yet. It's my aunt. Ever since college, she's been urging me to fall in love, telling me to find a reliable boyfriend while I'm still young. If I go back to school, she's afraid she'll bring this up again, so I think..."
"Wait, you don't want me to pretend to be your boyfriend, do you? Do I look reliable?" Li Xuan asked.
"It's not reliable at all, but at least you have a legitimate job, age, appearance, and behavior. At least on the surface, you meet the definition of a high-quality human male. As long as you don't look into your inner world, no one would think that you are a pervert who only thinks about magical girls." Li Sijie smiled.
"I have given the shop away, so I am now unemployed." Li Xuan spread his hands and said.
"If you don't agree, I'll find someone else~"
"Whatever, and I don't believe you would do that." Li Xuan said with a wicked smile.
"Okay, there's really nothing I can do about you - if you do me this favor, I'll do you one too, how about that?" Li Sijie asked.
"You're not going to give me another pair of socks, are you? I've saved several pairs of socks you changed recently." Li Xuan said.
"What's a pair of socks? I'll give you an offer you can't refuse." Li Sijie said confidently.
"Oh? Tell me."
"Remember what I said: I found a way to avoid the metaphor machine? I would like to share this discovery with you." Li Sijie said with a smile.
"Hiss - this is a good thing. It seems I have to agree to it." Li Xuan nodded - this was indeed something he could not refuse. If he could really avoid the detection of the Yu Shi Ji, then he would be able to move freely in the outside world.
"If you trust me, then please do me this favor first, and then I will share the method with you. Is that okay?" Li Sijie asked.
"I'm trustworthy, I'm trustworthy. I'll inject you with some genetic material first and let you take it home, okay?" Li Xuan said with a wicked smile.
"You are such a bad person..." Li Sijie was halfway through her words when Li Xuan blocked her mouth and started to be gentle with her again.
The next morning, Li Xuan was awakened by Li Sijie's good morning bite while he was half asleep. After enjoying the breakfast carefully prepared by the latter, he opened the portal and brought her to Qinghe University, which she had not seen for a long time.
Although it is winter, Qinghe City's latitude does not snow and the temperature is not too cold. Therefore, many girls who love beauty still choose to go out with bare legs, but with thicker tops and socks.
It was the weekend, and Li Sijie said goodbye to her roommate and left the school with her things.
All she had was a suitcase, besides a school bag. To play the role of a good boyfriend, Li Xuan took the initiative to help her pull the suitcase and took a bus from school to her home.
"Can you tell me what kind of person your aunt is? I also need to be prepared in advance." Li Xuan said.
"She is a very responsible person. My father died of illness when I was a child, and I became a burden after my mother remarried. My aunt didn't want me to suffer any grievances, so she took the initiative to take me in and raise me. She was very young at that time, and she wasted her entire youth for me, and she had never even been in love." Li Sijie sighed.
"She is even better than her biological mother. It's hard to imagine that this kind of thing would happen in real life. I usually only see such plots in novels or comics." Li Xuan sighed.
"She did give a lot for me, but mom is not completely heartless. She gave most of the property she got from my father to my aunt, and she almost left the house with nothing. This can be considered as compensation to me, right? Although I don't agree with it, I respect her idea of living her own life." Li Sijie said with some sadness.
Li Xuan put her head on his shoulder at the right time. Li Sijie didn't cry, but her eyes looked a little lonely.
"However, my aunt wasn't very kind to me. She was very strict with me. Before I came of age, I had to take on a lot of housework, learn a lot according to her ideas, and keep up with my grades in school. My daily schedule was packed. If I didn't do what she wanted, I would be punished."
"So, she doesn't actually love you, and only raised you for the sake of the fortune?"
"No, on the contrary, she cares about me very much, so she is strict with me - just like she is strict with herself. As for the property she inherited, how much savings can our small family have? That money has been spent on me a long time ago, and I still have to pay for it." Li Sijie explained.
"That's true. Even if it's for money, it's not easy to spend so much time raising a nine-year-old child." Li Xuan nodded.
Chapter 433 The Meaning of the Name
"So my feelings towards her... are quite complicated. It can be said to be a mother-daughter relationship, but there is a sense of alienation; it can't be said to be hatred, but it's not. However, she and my father have a good sibling relationship, which should be one of the reasons why she is willing to take care of me." Li Sijie said.
"Could she be a brother-con? She thinks of you as your father's meal replacement." Li Xuan said with a smile.
"How could that be? If I were a boy, who knows, I might be able to get some meal replacement from a girl." Li Sijie also laughed. Because of this joke, the depressing atmosphere just now was relieved a lot.
"Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you my aunt's name: her name is Li Manya. It's a bit troublesome to write, but you don't have to call her that anyway. It's enough to just know it." Li Sijie said, typing the three words on her mobile phone and holding it in front of Li Xuan.
"Fuck, what's this word? Li...Manjie? No, I'm confused. I didn't hear it clearly just now - can you say it again? How do you pronounce this word?" Li Xuan laughed at himself.
"I don't blame you. This name is indeed a bit uncommon. It is pronounced 'manxie', and the third character is pronounced in the second tone." Li Sijie read it again, and Li Xuan finally heard the pronunciation of the two characters clearly.
"Why such a weird name?"
"Then I'll probably have to ask my grandparents who are buried in the cemetery. But she has explained the meaning of the name: 'Man' means fabric without patterns, and 'Xian' means fabric with patterns. Putting the two together, it refers to all kinds of textiles. I heard that my grandparents both run textile factories, so I guess giving her this name is related to her industry," Li Sijie explained.
"No wonder your family all have names with the character 'twisted silk' in their names. By the way, does your name have any meaning? Although it sounds nice, it always feels a bit strange. Aren't girls usually named Jie, which means 'pure and white'? Do you have a rule that names can only have characters with the character 'twisted silk' in their names?" Li Xuan asked curiously.
"There's no such strange rule. The 'jie' in my name means end." Li Sijie said with a smile.
"I'm here to personally put an end to this band?"
"It's the same character, but the meaning is different. The ending of my name is taken from an ancient meaning. It means 'to wear, to dress up'. Of course, it also means restraint, but I bet a pair of socks that my father definitely didn't think of this meaning when he named me." Li Sijie replied.
"So your name, when put together, means wearing stockings?" Li Xuan said with a smile.
"It's pretty much the same. My aunt said that several generations of our family have run textile factories and have been working hard to study textile technology. However, the industry has been in recession in recent years, so my aunt switched to running a clothing store."
"Will the clothing store be busy?"
"Yeah, this is a job that never has a day off. If I hadn't contacted her this morning, she probably wouldn't have stayed home to rest."
As they were talking, the car had already arrived at the station. The two of them got off the car with their luggage and walked for a while before arriving at the downstairs of Aunt Li Sijie's residential complex.
This wasn't a high-end neighborhood, but the environment was acceptable. It seemed Li Sijie's family was lower middle class, far from the wealthy like Lilika, but still comfortable compared to the average family.
The two of them arrived at the door. Li Sijie took out the key from the compartment of her schoolbag and opened the room. What came into view was a spotless room and neatly organized furnishings - it seemed that Li Sijie liked to clean the room, which she must have learned from her aunt.
Two pairs of slippers, one large and one small, were placed at the door, obviously preparing for their arrival.
"Auntie, I'm back." Li Sijie put on slippers and shouted loudly inside.
"You're cooing as soon as you come in. Are you a pigeon?" A mature and steady voice came from inside, and then a woman in an apron walked out.
"Aunt, let me introduce you. This is my boyfriend ~ Li Xuan - this is my aunt, Ms. Li Manya ~" Li Sijie introduced both sides.
"Hello, auntie~" Li Xuan bowed obediently and tried to look at the woman in front of him with normal eyes.
According to Li Sijie's description, Li Manya is probably in her early thirties, but she probably takes excellent care of herself, so she doesn't look thirty at all. Even with a little makeup, people would believe she's a college student.
She's a bit shorter than Li Sijie, and has a very steady demeanor. Though thinner, her bust is estimated to be an F cup, a testament to the fruitfulness of a slender branch—it seems Da Lei's genes are inherited from his father's side.
Li Manya took off her apron, and Li Xuan noticed that she was wearing a gray knitted sweater, black cigarette pants, ordinary white socks and velvet slippers, and her hair was tied up at the back of her head. Although she had never been married, she had the air of a good wife and mother.
This series of outfits were obviously prepared after knowing that she was coming. The purpose seems to be to appear more solemn, to cover up the woman's sexiness as much as possible, and to make herself look more like an elder.
In fact, this conservative outfit did give her a virtuous and dignified look. However, no matter how conservative her clothes were, they couldn't hide her figure. Add to that a face that looked very similar to Li Sijie's—he had been affectionate with the owner of this face until last night—and it was impossible not to have some fantasies.
Fortunately, he had many years of experience and was able to suppress the gun without letting his aunt notice anything unusual.
"Auntie, we are in the house. Aren't you hot wearing long pants?" Li Sijie asked.
"What I wear is none of your business?" Li Manyi said, turning around and warmly welcoming Li Xuan into the house and sitting him down, bringing him a plate of washed fruits and melon seeds.
"There's nothing prepared at home. Please eat some fruit first. The dishes will be ready soon." Li Manyi said with a smile.
Li Xuan naturally followed the Golden Country's tradition of politeness. The angle of her smile was almost identical to Li Sijie's, but she lacked Li Sijie's mysterious aura, instead appearing somewhat gentler and more easygoing. As for the harshness that Li Sijie mentioned, he didn't notice it.
"Hey, stop pretending. He's my boyfriend. We're family, why are you being so polite? Go change your clothes quickly~" Li Sijie had already quickly changed into a small tank top and yoga shorts that exposed her thighs in the bedroom, and pushed Li Manyi into the bedroom.
"Wait, the food is still in the pot, let me turn off the fire first..." Li Manyi tried to struggle, but was forced into the pot by her niece.
"Leave the dishes to me, you can take a rest." Li Sijie closed the door, turned around and looked at Li Xuan with a smile.
"Hey, this is your home, what do you want to do?" Li Xuan asked.
