I transformed into a cute girl and lived a carefree life in the apocalypse.

Yes, that's right, it's envy.

While the group chatted, they boarded the elevator, swiped their key cards in the sensor area, and the elevator began to ascend to the hidden floor.

"Are you insulting yourself?" Yan Ziming asked with a mysterious smile.

"What do you mean?"

Yan Ziming didn't answer Mo Xin's question, but instead asked, "How much do you think Xian'er paid for this presidential suite?"

"I don't know, but it won't be cheap."

"Starting at a million US dollars?"

"I guess it was a barter."

"Oh~~ Mo Xin, you got it right, it was indeed exchanged for items." Yan Ziming patted the little girl's head and answered their questions: "An SSS-grade obsidian."

While answering, Yan Ziming felt his lips twitch slightly. After all, who would trade an SSS-grade obsidian crystal for a presidential suite?

"Big sister, are you kidding me?" Ye Qianxue asked incredulously. This was too shocking. An SSS-grade obsidian crystal? Is this the world of the Soul Heaven Boss?

"How much money must that be!" Tian Tian exclaimed.

S-grade was already beyond her reach, yet Liu Mengxian casually took out an SSS-grade obsidian to exchange for a presidential suite—that's too extravagant!

"It's not something that can be measured in money..."

Yan Ziming looked distressed. She also felt that Xian'er was too wasteful. Although it was not their property, she still felt heartbroken.

"The reason I'm so slow is because their representative wanted to discuss cooperation with us, which took some time. She said that the entire hotel now belongs to us, and we can ask the Lofiel conglomerate for help if anything happens."

Ding--

The elevator doors opened, revealing a luxurious living room with crystal tableware and floors made of some kind of high-grade wood. It had almost every imaginable luxury feature.

On the upscale sofa in the living room, Liu Mengxian was perched on it, fiddling with the tablet computer provided by the hotel, her little feet swinging back and forth, everything about her was so bright and beautiful.

"Coming."

Liu Mengxian greeted him without turning her head. Yan Ziming came closer and looked at her jade-like lotus feet, a desire stirring within him.

Holy crap, I don't think I'm a foot fetishist, so why am I staring at that place?

Shaking his head vigorously, Yan Ziming noticed a pile of tablets under the sofa, clearly worn out from overuse. With a strange expression, he said, "Xian'er... never mind, whatever makes you happy..."

Yan Ziming originally wanted to talk to her about the SSS-grade obsidian, but after thinking about it, he decided against it. Liu Mengxian's outlook on life was different from theirs, and it wasn't something that could be easily understood by simply mentioning it. To make her truly understand, she would have to start by getting used to modern life.

"Qianxue... Huh? Where is she?"

Hearing the laughter coming from inside the room, Yan Ziming sighed helplessly. It's just a presidential suite, they already own the whole hotel, there's no rush to enjoy it now.

"Oh, right, I almost forgot to call Mu Mu." Yan Ziming took out Ye Qianxue's phone from his pocket and dialed to call Mu Mu over.

To avoid revealing their identities, they had Mu Mu wait in a secluded place until they found the room, at which point Mu Mu would be teleported over using his spatial abilities.

"It's so slow! It can't even get a simple task done properly!"

Suddenly, a crack appeared in the space behind her, and Mu Mu emerged from it. Her shiny silver hair was as brilliant as the Milky Way in the sky.

"Something happened."

"Hmph, I'll let you off the hook for now. I have something I want to talk to her about," Mu Mu said calmly, glancing at Liu Mengxian.

"Just call me Fairy."

Liu Mengxian's gaze shifted over, her eyes calm as a lake, revealing no emotional fluctuations. She sat up straight, wanting to hear what Mu Mu had to say to her.

Yan Ziming immediately became anxious, as the current situation was simply too serious to ignore, and advised from the side:

"Um... let's talk this out calmly, don't be impulsive, impulsiveness is the devil, you have to—"

"What are you thinking? What kind of image do you have of me? Do you think I'm a tigress?" Mu Mu said irritably.

"Eh...? Ahem, I misunderstood. Goodbye, goodbye." Yan Ziming coughed awkwardly twice, thinking to himself, "Isn't this how you always do things? You can't change this image!"

To create a good environment for the two of them to talk, Yan Ziming decided not to be a third wheel and went to the room to keep Ye Qianxue and the others company.

"Big sister, this bed is so big and so soft!"

"What a big ball... oh no, what a big bed!"

Ye Qianxue bounced around on top of him, causing her full breasts to ripple. Yan Ziming blushed as he watched, his mind wandering to inappropriate thoughts, and he almost blurted out some embarrassing words.

"What did you just say, Master Mo?" Tian Tian asked疑惑地. She was close to Yan Ziming and heard clearly. It seemed like she was saying something about something very big...

"It's nothing, don't mind it. Just take a good rest today. The Civilization Cup is in two days, so remember to memorize the rules and don't embarrass yourself in the official competition."

"You speak so righteously, but have you even remembered everything yourself?" Mo Xin teased, leaning on Yan Ziming's shoulder.

"Ah! Mo Xin is so cunning, that's Qianxue's spot!"

"Isn't your seat at the front, Sister Chiyuki~~"

"Ah ha~~" Qianxue seemed to have been shot again, and collapsed onto the bed in a daze. It seems that the title of 'Sister Qianxue' is still too stimulating for her.

"But that's quite rare, Zimo, you leave the master alone in the living room."

Mo Xin recalled that after Liu Mengxian arrived, Yan Ziming stayed by her side almost every step of the way, which made Mo Xin a little jealous.

Oh no, another jealous person has joined the family!

Yan Ziming sighed, thinking, "She only cares about Xian'er a little bit, why is she so jealous?"

I've spent more time with each of them than with Liu Mengxian. I only care about Liu Mengxian so much because I want to deepen my relationship with her as soon as possible.

The main reason is that Liu Mengxian is too elusive, as ethereal as a fairy, as if she would dissipate at the slightest carelessness. In addition, the master and disciple have only known each other for a few days. Without some emotional foundation, Yan Ziming is really afraid of losing her.

Just then, the door opened.

"Little Mo Mo... Xian'er wants you to go out, and so does Tian Tian. You should go out too; it will be good for you."

"My master wants to see me?!"

Tian Tian was flattered and overwhelmed. She knew that Liu Mengxian was a super big shot in the Soul Heaven Realm, and a Soul Heaven big shot who controlled lightning. It was already the greatest fortune of her life to become Yan Zimo's disciple. If she could learn something from Liu Mengxian, it would be an opportunity that she could not wait for!

"Stop talking nonsense and get out of here. Do you expect Xian'er to wait for you?"

Although Yan Ziming was eager to know what Mu Mu and Xian'er had talked about, there would be plenty of opportunities in the future. So he dragged Tian Tian out and saw Xian'er standing in the living room with her eyes closed.

"Xian'er." Yan Ziming called out, and Liu Mengxian responded.

"I'll teach you something."

Upon hearing this, Tian Tian and Yan Ziming were overjoyed!

Chapter Twenty-Three: Elementalization

Yan Ziming and Tiantian swallowed hard, their eyes shining as they looked at Liu Mengxian.

“First, it’s you, Mo’er.” Yan Zimo’s expression hardened, and Liu Mengxian continued, “Your use of the realm is too monotonous. Let me teach you a little trick first, and you should see results in a few days.”

A few days? Why the rush?

Yan Ziming was puzzled. Isn't it usually done step by step? You can't rush things!

Why did Xian'er suddenly want to teach them something new? Yan Ziming had hinted at this a few days ago, but Xian'er was engrossed in fiddling with electronic devices and ignored her.

If there's any connection, it's her conversation with Mu Mu just now. I really want to know what they talked about.

Is the technique of using the boundary monotonous...? Well, my own use of the boundary is indeed too monotonous. Apart from releasing it as an area-of-effect attack and using it as a single entity, I haven't tried any other variations.

But are there any other uses for the boundary? Yan Ziming had never heard of them.

Ah, I think I saw it before. It was the battle between Mu Mu and You Ming. I remember Mu Mu condensed her domain into a band of light that was even more dazzling than the Milky Way, which surrounded her. It could be used for both offense and defense, and it was incredibly mysterious and powerful.

If Yan Ziming were to fight Mu Mu now, Yan Ziming felt that his chances of winning would not exceed 10%. The gap was too large, not only in terms of strength, but also in terms of the use of techniques.

Mu Mu's use of spatial abilities is probably already at the ninth level. Yan Ziming also knows that she is making a final sprint for the second path. Once she fully walks it, she will be a true ninth-level expert.

Speaking of the band of light that Mu Mu condensed, Yan Ziming recalled how, with Liu Mengxian's help, he had successfully imbued his will into his lightning spear, only to be easily defeated by Liu Mengxian.

Yan Ziming vividly remembered that scene. She had never heard of anything that could be grasped completely. The terrifying power contained within it was something that even Yan Ziming herself dared not touch, and could only manipulate it from a distance.

Moreover, maintaining the form of the boundary lightning spear is not easy, and it cannot be maintained for too long.

If I'm not mistaken, this is what Xian'er is going to teach me.

"And Tiantian, you can now start trying to forge your own path."

Liu Mengxian looked at Tiantian with a scrutinizing gaze that made Tiantian's scalp tingle: "Your own path?"

She was unaware of the three requirements for condensing a domain, and Yan Ziming hadn't taught her either. At that time, she was only at the fourth level, and it was too early for her to come into contact with domains. Moreover, this process required constant self-comprehension; it could only be understood intuitively and couldn't be explained in words. Relying on others to teach her was useless.

"You still don't understand what a 'road' is? That's even better. It means your mind hasn't been bound yet. It's a long process, so take it slow. Let me show you Mo'er's first."

Upon hearing this, Yan Ziming, just like last time, consciously released his Thunder Domain. However, it was still restricted to a certain range by Liu Mengxian. The power to burn mountains and boil seas caused Tian Tian's body to tremble. Yan Ziming's lightning quality was too strong, suppressing her so much that she couldn't lift her head.

Subsequently, the Thunder Realm underwent a transformation. It first condensed into a single point, stretched, and became a straight line, then gradually transformed into the shape of a spear. Lightning flowed calmly across the spear, occasionally unleashing bolts of lightning that pierced the air and also pierced Tian Tian's heart.

This was the highest level of lightning ability she had ever witnessed. Liu Mengxian had never officially shown it to them before. What Yan Ziming had done was the pinnacle that Tian Tian knew so far.

After about ten seconds, the shape of the lightning spear became somewhat unstable, and it began to generate more and more lightning, showing signs of disintegrating.

"Have you forgotten what I taught you last time?" Liu Mengxian said calmly, and Yan Ziming reacted in the next second.

Her eyes were tinged with a bluish-purple light, forming two tiny dots, as if two pupils had appeared in her eyes. Tian Tian felt a chill run through her body just from looking at her, enveloped by immense fear, and her body stiffened.
