Godslayer: At the start, the power of the Five Elements transforms into Iron Fist Tiger.

Ling Yue led Ning Bing to the adult women's clothing store, and the various women's clothes they saw along the way made Ning Bing blush.

"Hey~ This young man is here with his girlfriend to buy clothes~ Please come in~" At this moment, a shop assistant standing outside a store saw Ling Yue and Ning Bing and immediately lit up. He quickly walked up to Ling Yue.

"Your girlfriend is simply naturally beautiful, the most beautiful girl I've ever seen. We happen to have a few outfits in our store that would be perfect for her..." The saleswoman's praise was so effusive that not only Ning Bing but also Ling Yue felt quite flattered.

"Come on, let's go inside and take a look." With that, Ling Yue took Ning Bing's hand and walked towards the unnamed shop behind the shop assistant.

Unintentionally, Ling Yue looked up and saw a very old, but still spotless, signboard hanging in the very center of the shop.

It clearly says "COS Costume" on it??

Upon seeing this, Ling Yue made no attempt to hide his intentions and directly asked, "COS? You sell cosplay costumes here?"

The woman became even more excited upon hearing this, a strange glint in her eyes: "This gentleman also knows about cosplay?!"

Ling Yue found this strange. Isn't cosplay something that all young people should know? You can see it by just scrolling through a couple of videos online.

"What, are you selling some kind of bizarre clothes for cosplay? Otherwise, how come there are people who don't know about it?"

The woman sighed upon hearing this, a bitter smile appearing on her lips: "This gentleman probably doesn't know anything about cosplay clothing stores, does he? You know, before the fog descended, cosplay clothing was selling very well, but now the fog surrounds Great Xia."

Furthermore, it's already 2021, and much of the culture surrounding cosplay has declined, so people now have no idea about the stories behind cosplay costumes, making it difficult for them to sell...

As the woman reminisced, she led Ling Yue and his companion into the shop. The shop was very small, even smaller than Ling Yue's bedroom.

"Although I've always loved these cosplay costumes, business at the shop has always been very slow. My shop is probably the only cosplay costume shop in the entire Cangnan area..."

The woman drew back a bright red curtain, revealing several lifelike mannequins dressed in strange costumes standing behind it.

The most eye-catching one is the one in the very center, dressed in purple with the collar half open, revealing the mannequin's chest cavity, resembling the attire of a village girl.

"This is... a cheesy movie?" Ling Yue squinted, carefully recalling the characters in his memory, and finally remembered the character represented by the clothes in front of him.

"Sir, you also know about Lei Movie?!" the woman asked incredulously, clearly surprised by Ling Yue's reaction.

"Hmm, this character still left a deep impression on me, but the pride of domestic games back then has ultimately declined." Ling Yue closed his eyes, recalling the past of this game.

When Genshin Impact burst onto the scene, it carved out a niche for itself in the gaming world. Unfortunately, its success was short-lived. With its explosive popularity came a host of controversies and a diverse range of personalities. Ultimately, whether it was the company's growing disappointment with players or simply the nature of human nature, the game faded into obscurity, eventually becoming completely forgotten...

After a long while, Ling Yue opened his eyes, his gaze once again becoming calm and still.

"Take me to see something else, this dress doesn't suit Ningbing." Ling Yue's tone was completely calm. What happened in his past life had nothing to do with him. Now, he just needed to do his best.

"Oh, okay." Although the woman didn't know what Ling Yue was thinking, she was used to this feeling. Perhaps these clothes would eventually be forgotten, but at least she had tried, and at least some people would remember the story behind the clothes.

"This one! This is the most prized possession in my shop!" the woman said, taking out a black tin box in front of her.

"You two can rest assured, no one has ever worn this garment before, or rather, no one has ever been able to wear it." The woman struggled to lift the black iron box and place it on the table.

Upon hearing this, Ling Yue immediately became interested: "Oh? What does that mean?"

The woman remained silent, but struggled to open the tin box.

The woman opened the iron box, and it seemed as if flames were flowing inside, or as if the black iron box had imprisoned its light. At this moment, the shop, which was originally dim and never exposed to the sun, was unusually bright.

Upon seeing the outfit, the bewildered Ningbing froze, unable to resist reaching out to touch the red dress.

"Careful! This dress feels very hot..." The woman had barely finished speaking when Ningbing's hand touched the dress, and a cool, fine silk texture spread through her hand.

As if the garment possessed sentience, the firelight emanating from its red surface grew ever brighter, causing the woman next to Ningbing to instinctively shield her eyes and take a few steps back.

Ling Yue's eyes narrowed, and he recognized who the outfit was supposed to be cosplaying.

"Yan Ling Ji!"

As if the clothes had heard Ling Yue's voice, the fiery red light they emitted grew even brighter, and flames even ignited on the surface of the clothes.

Ning Bing seemed oblivious to the heat, one hand still clutching the corner of her clothes. She turned her head, her eyes pleading as she looked at Ling Yue, her voice sounding almost like a pleading whisper:

"Master, I want this~!"

After confirming once again that Ningbing would not be affected by the clothes, Ling Yue looked at the woman behind him.

"We'll take this dress. Name your price."

"No, no need..." The woman seemed to hear the word "master" amidst the sound of flames, but she gently patted her head, doubting that she had misheard.

"This garment was never going to sell anyway, so it's lucky that it's found its destined owner. I'm giving it to you for free."

The woman's answer was unexpected by Ling Yue, yet also reasonable. However, Ling Yue clearly didn't have the habit of taking advantage of others, and asked a seemingly irrelevant question:

Are you a native of Cangnan?

After two seconds, the woman finally answered, "Yes, I have lived in Cangnan since I was a child."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ling Yue took out the Five Elements Lock, which he had made very small after subduing Ning Bing last time, and handed it to the woman.

"I have a good impression of you, so I'll give this to you."

As someone who specializes in studying the products of the 20th century's anime and manga, the woman easily recognized the Five Elements Lock in Ling Yue's hand, but to her surprise, the Five Elements Lock in Ling Yue's hand appeared out of thin air.

"No—" The woman wanted to refuse, but the next second, the Five Spirit Lock automatically put on her wrist.

"Huh??" The woman's eyes widened, not understanding what was going on.

However, the next second, the woman was suddenly enveloped by the fire elemental power of the Five Elements Lock, but to her surprise, she did not feel any burning sensation. On the contrary, she felt warm and comfortable, as if her whole body had been cleansed.

From Ling Yue and Ning Bing's perspective, the woman's figure suddenly flickered in place, and then the miracle that made up her body suddenly dissipated and flew into the sky, towards the direction of the Peace Agency.

Then her dissipating body was enveloped by the power of the fire spirit, which was rebuilding her flesh and blood!

Seeing this, Ling Yue felt that his energy consumption was not too great, smiled slightly, and turned to look at Ning Bing beside him.

"Go change your clothes, I'll wait for you here."

"Okay!" Ningbing's eyes lit up upon hearing this, and she couldn't wait to put on the clothes.
