Chapter 24 Li Yao: Death and evil always seem to share a common stench.
After Li Yao left Huang Village, he was taken directly by Angel Yan to a detached villa in the suburbs of Tianhe City.
This property belongs to the female CEO of Angel International. It is located in a quiet and secluded area, and there are several osmanthus trees planted in the yard.
Upon their arrival, they immediately reported the situation to Keisha.
Keisha's idea was for Li Yao to focus on recovering from his injuries and return to Tiancheng only after the formal negotiations with Lanxing were over.
So they settled down there.
Although he was supposed to be recuperating, Li Yao's injuries had actually healed completely long ago.
The regenerative abilities of the third-generation angel are no joke. The blow from the demon's claw only caused his blood to surge at that moment, and he was almost fully recovered after a good night's sleep.
But Angel Yan didn't think so; she insisted on taking care of Li Yao.
Left with no other choice, Li Yao had to stay there for a few more days.
That day, Li Yao was lying on the sofa taking stock of his previous gains.
The risks and rewards of this trip to Huangcun were proportional.
He not only gained a deeper understanding of the demon's methods of reincarnation and resurrection, but also obtained some data on the Demon Claw.
Even when he cut open Morgana's body, he secretly obtained some data about her fourth-generation divine body.
With this data, he can more easily develop ways to strike against Morgana.
After all, fear stems from the unknown.
Just then, Angel Yan's voice came from the direction of the kitchen: "Li Yao."
"Here, drink this."
Li Yao looked up and saw her walking over with a steaming bowl in her hand, stopping in front of him.
The liquid in the bowl was pale gold and had a sweet aroma.
"This is?"
"Nourishing soup".
Angel Yan smiled and said, "I cooked this myself, especially to nourish your body."
Li Yao reached out to take it, but she dodged it.
"Put your hand back."
"Um?"
"Wasn't your hand numb from the shock?"
Angel Yan sat down on the armrest of the sofa, very close to him, close enough that he could smell her faint fragrance.
"Your things have been shaking these past few days. Did you think I didn't notice?"
Li Yao was stunned for a moment.
Is there such a thing?
He looked down at his left hand.
Indeed, when I took the blow from the demon's claw with my shield, my arm was a little shaken. I can still lift heavy objects, but it does shake a bit when I do delicate things like holding a bowl.
He hadn't paid any attention to it himself, but what surprised him was that Angel Yan would notice such a detail.
Angel Yan scooped up a spoonful of soup and naturally brought it to his lips, saying gently, "Open your mouth."
Li Yao stared at the spoonful of soup in front of him, then looked at Angel Yan's stunningly beautiful face, and was momentarily stunned.
"Sister Yan, I can do it myself."
"Stop talking nonsense."
Angel Yan gently shook the spoon, causing the soup noodles to slosh slightly. "Hurry up, while it's hot."
Li Yao had no choice but to open his mouth and drink the spoonful of soup.
Surprisingly, it tasted pretty good.
It has a sweet and smooth texture, and a unique fragrance.
"Is it good?"
"It tastes good."
Li Yao nodded, watching her scoop out a second spoonful, and asked, "What's this made of?"
"Star Dew Grass, a specialty of Angel Nebula, with some gene-enhancing additives."
As Angel Yan fed me, she said, "The Queen fed me like this when I was injured."
Li Yao obediently opened his mouth and drank the second spoonful, but he had a slightly strange feeling in his heart.
So this is a tradition?
But that's not right.
He glanced at Angel Yan furtively, only to see that she looked perfectly normal, as if feeding someone soup was the most ordinary thing in the world.
The slight redness at the tips of her ears betrayed that she wasn't actually that calm.
Li Yao suppressed a laugh and continued to eat one bite after another in compliance.
Angel Yan watched him obediently drink the soup, and the corners of her lips slightly lifted.
However, she then seemed to remember something and said, "By the way, according to your information, Morgana has already upgraded to the fourth generation of divine body this time."
Li Yao swallowed the soup in his mouth and nodded: "Yes, I've experienced it firsthand. It's very powerful, and its recovery speed is frighteningly fast."
Angel Yan scooped up another spoonful and handed it over, her eyes filled with curiosity and contemplation: "That's strange."
"The fourth-generation divine body is not so easy to achieve."
"In addition to the fourth-generation divine body technology, a massive amount of resources are also required."
"But how could someone so down on their luck have the ability to research the fourth-generation divine body, let alone utilize it?"
Li Yao drank the spoonful and said directly, "It must have been sponsored by someone."
"really."
Angel Yan also guessed this possibility.
In the last great war, the Demon Legion was almost completely wiped out by them, and Demon One was also severely damaged.
Morgana's entire fortune was wiped out, and she herself was severely injured, forcing her to lie dormant for thousands of years.
But this time, she suddenly appeared with the body of a fourth-generation god.
Angel Yan would never believe that no one was sponsoring her.
After all, Morgana's poverty is well-known throughout the known universe.
As for how this name came about, that's none of your business.
After taking another sip, Li Yao got straight to the point: "And this person must be Karl of the Styx."
Angel Yan raised an eyebrow slightly: "What makes you say that?"
Li Yao shrugged: "Death and evil always seem to be birds of a feather."
"Pfft~"
Angel Yan chuckled upon hearing this.
That makes sense.
Angel Yan continued feeding him, her tone laced with sarcasm: "Only that guy who hides in the shadows researching the void has the resources and guts to do that."
Li Yao didn't reply, but several thoughts were running through his mind.
The bowl of soup was quickly emptied.
Angel Yan put the bowl on the coffee table, looked down at him, and suddenly stretched out her thumb and gently rubbed the corner of his mouth.
"It got on me."
Before Li Yao could even react, she had already gotten up and gone into the kitchen.
"Alright, don't think about that now. The Queen said your main task right now is to heal your injuries."
"Sister Yan, I'm really all better..."
I don't care if it's done or not.
Angel Yan's voice came from the kitchen, tinged with laughter: "Anyway, since my sister said she'd take care of you, she has to do it properly. Otherwise, how will she explain it to the Queen when we get back?"
Li Yao leaned back on the sofa, looking towards the kitchen, a slow smile spreading across his face.
He yelled towards the kitchen, "Can we still order food tomorrow?"
"Anything is fine with me."
"I want to eat that... star dew grass, and I'd like to try a different way of cooking it."
Angel Yan walked out of the kitchen, laughing angrily, "Trying to push your luck, huh?"
Li Yao didn't reply, but his mood became even more pleasant.
He suddenly felt that it might be alright if the injury healed a little slower.
These past few days of leisurely life are well worth enjoying.
Two days later, once the angels catch up, they will negotiate with Blue Star, and the Liangshan incident will follow.
Then he will return to Tiancheng to prepare for upgrading his third-generation divine body.
Thinking of this, he turned to look at Angel Yan, who had just sat down at the other end of the sofa, and asked, "Sister Yan, shall we go out for a walk tomorrow?"
Upon hearing this, Angel Yan paused in her act of picking up her teacup, looked up at him, and gave him a charming smile: "Is this a date?"
Li Yao met her ambiguous smile without flinching, and instead nodded seriously, saying, "That's right."
"Now that we're on Earth, shouldn't we do as the locals do? Go shopping, watch movies, eat delicious food... let's go through all these routines properly."
"OK."
Angel Yan readily agreed to the proposal.
But after a while, a question began to form in her mind:
Why is this kid being so proactive today? Could it be a trap?
