1357 Searching for the Huang Family
After spending three hours in the bathroom, Huang Xiao Li came out looking like she''d experienced rebirth.
Her brown skin had returned to its smooth jade-likeplexion. Her sticky and messy hair became as straight as a sword with each strand shimmering like an ocean basked in sunlight. The worst part, her foul smell that was caused by her ident waspletely gone, reced by a sweet fragrance.
"Thank you for the fresh clothes. I washed the old one for you." Huang Xiao Li handed him the first pair of uniforms he gave her in the very beginning.
"Also, hurry up and wash yourself. You smell like a beggar," she said while pinching her nose.
Because she also smelled like a beggar before her shower, she didn''t notice the foul smell. However, now that she waspletely cleaned up, Tian Yang''s odor became very distinct and intense to her.
"As you wish, princess." Tian Yang jokingly said as he entered the bathroom.
He came back out half an hourter to see Huang Xiao Li lying on the bed, seemingly deep asleep.
Not wanting to disturb her, he sat on the cold floor and returned to his cultivation.
Huang Xiao Li would not wake up for another two days.
"Ah! I fell asleep by ident!" she eximed when she woke up.
"Don''t worry, it was only two days this time," he smiled.
"T-Two days?!"
"I didn''t try to wake you up this time if you''re wondering."
"..."
Huang Xiao Li felt really guilty for wasting so much time when it could''ve been spent looking for her parents, but she couldn''t help herself, as she was exhausted from all that traveling.
"Are you ready to look for your parents?" Tian Yang asked.bender
"Of course," she said as she jumped off the bed.
"Wait, before we leave, I think you should disguise yourself a little."
"Huh? What''s wrong with my appearance?" she raised an eyebrow.
"You will attract too much attention if you go out in that appearance," he exined.Content ? N?velDrama.Org.
Huang Xiao Li blushed after hearing his words.
''Does this mean he actually finds me attractive? He''s not blind, after all!'' she felt relieved to know that Tian Yang was not someone who couldn''t see beauty.
lightsnvl He''d been acting so normal around her that she''d begun to doubt her own beauty.
"Give me a minute."
Huang Xiao Li retrieved a box of makeup and proceeded to apply it to her face.
In mere minutes, Huang Xiao Li changed her appearance from that of a peerless beauty to an extraordinarily handsome young man.
This shocking transformation that was done with pills greatly surprised Tian Yang, who didn''t know the capabilities of a woman''s makeup until this moment.
To make her disguise even more convincing, Huang Xiao Li tied her hair into a ponytail just like Tian Yang.
"What do you think?" she asked him afterward, her tone carrying a hint of pride.
"Makes me wonder if I''ve been looking at your real face or not this entire"
Huang Xiao Li suddenly swung her leg at him, interrupting him.
"I''m just joking."
Tian Yang released her leg shortly after catching it.
"You look like an actual man, I''m quite impressed."<novelsnext></novelsnext>
"I wanted to look a little less beautiful, but it''s hard to do so without making my face look unnatural," she said, unknowingly sounding narcissistic.
"..."
Tian Yang did not respond to such words.
Sometimeter, they left the room and went downstairs.
"Oh, perfect. I was going to let you know that you only have one day left." The manager said to them.
"If you want to continue using the room, you have to pay for another three days right now. If not, you won''t be able to keep the room if someone else were to rent it even if you are still living in it."
"You can check us out now since we won''t being back." Tian Yang said.
"If you say so."
Tian Yang returned the room key before leaving the building.
"How should we go about finding my family?" Huang Xiao Li asked.
"We can start by asking around. We should start with the merchants since they have been here the longest and would have seen the most people," he suggested.
"Sounds good."
They approached the merchants and began their search.
"Hello, I am looking for some people. Have you seen a family of three around recently? They should have a young boy around ten years old with them." Huang Xiao Li asked.
However, the merchant remained silent, only throwing up a money sign using his hand.
Huang Xiao Li didn''t hesitate and handed him 5 spirit stones.
"I haven''t seen them." The merchant said.
"..."
Huang Xiao Li felt like she got scammed again, but there was nothing she could do.
She repeated the same thing with the other merchants.
"Have you seen a family of three with a young boy recently?"
"Have you seen a middle-aged man at the 3rd level Spirit Lord recently?"
"You have?! Really?! Was he with a woman and a young boy?!"
"..."
At the end of the day, Huang Xiao Li had spent almost 300 spirit stones without obtaining any information about her family.
"I knew it wouldn''t be easy, but this is" Huang Xiao Li had a dejected look on her face.
Then she became angry, "Half of them were scammers and the other half were liars! I can''t believe the people in this ce! Is there not a single decent person in this ce?!"
"You aren''t used to the real world, are you?" Tian Yang could tell that she had lived a sheltered life and was still naive about how the world operated
"Is it really that obvious?" she sighed.
"Yes." He nodded without hesitation.
"I have spent most of my life at home with most of my knowledge taught by my parents. I''ve only started seeing the outside world when I joined the Immortal Monastery as a disciple," she admitted to having ack of experience.
"You may be naive now, but you have plenty of time to learn and grow." Tian Yang tried tofort her.
"Thank you" she responded with a forced smile.
