Chapter One Hundred: Summoning Beast

  Li Luyu and An Nanxu holding hands together going out has become a very common thing.

  As the heir to the throne of the strongest empire in Tianyun Divine Realm, the hands of Princess Chang are not something that can be held casually.

  "Li Luyu, you're holding my hand, don't you feel honored?" As they walked down the stairs, An Nanxiu decided to emphasize this point with him, because this fool was holding her hand as if it were no different from casually twisting a plastic bag.

  Li Luoyu turned back, curiously picked up Annanxiu's hand and looked at it from left to right, exclaiming: "Is this inlaid with diamonds or made of gold? Could it be Hetian white jade?"

  An Nanxiu's hands were small, soft and delicate. Li Luyu looked at them and felt honored. These were absolutely the kind of hands that would make any hand model feel inferior.

  "My hand is capable of grasping the imperial scepter that symbolizes the majesty of the empire, I am Her Highness the Princess, and you, as a native of this planet, are able to hold my hand... Of course, it's because you're my attendant officer... Even so, shouldn't you be filled with gratitude and reverence?" An Nanxiu felt that Li Luyu was becoming more and more disdainful towards her. At first, he would often address her as "Your Highness" in a very polite manner, but now he was too casual, frequently saying things like "An Nanxiu this" and "An Nanxiu that".

  "Before, your hands were always holding ice pops that cost 50 cents each, now they're just holding bottles of milk that cost 2 dollars each." Li Luoyou grasped her soft hand, exerting a slight force to pull her along, having just been lively and playful, making two jokes before suddenly becoming reluctant.

  An Nanxiu got angry and suddenly shook off Li Luyu's hand.

  Li Luoyu turned around and looked at her with his head down, "Angry?"

  Annan Xiu turned her head away, not letting him see her face anymore.

  "Alright, it's my honor. To be able to hold the hand of Princess An Nan Xiu is an honor for Li Lu You, a servant. As the only native in this world who has obtained eternal life and can accompany the princess forever, Princess An Nan Xiu, would you be willing to give your hand to Li Lu You, holding it with reverence and gratitude forever?"

  Li Luoyu was learning from the nobles in medieval movies, speaking with an air of pretentiousness, then putting one hand behind his back and stretching out the other, waiting for Annan Xiu to put her hand over.

  An Nanxiu wouldn't forgive others so easily, Li Luyou was clearly pretending, she wouldn't fall for it. She pouted and said: "No sincerity, no way."

  Li Luoyou couldn't bear it anymore, and on his own initiative, he took her hand, "Let's go, Princess, we were already at a disadvantage this afternoon, we should leave early... Who knows, maybe there will be a night show tonight, and we can come back late."

  Annan Xiu was still not very satisfied, struggled a bit, of course couldn't struggle free, so just let him lead on.

  Li Luoyu stopped at the entrance of the residential area and let go of An Nanxiu's hand.

  "What's wrong?" Annan Xiu still looked a bit reluctant, and hadn't even left the house yet, but was already annoying Li Ruyu.

  Li Luoyu took off one of his gloves and put it on Annan Xiu's hand, then grasped Annan Xiu's ungloved hand with his own ungloved hand.

  Two hands clasped together, Li Rouyu felt her hand soft and boneless, making him want to knead it gently, An Nanxiu felt his hand warm, the unique feeling of warmth on skin in winter and the chill of the air made An Nanxiu's face flush.

  "Is this fun? In the past, when I went out with Lizzy, it was like this. She didn't like wearing gloves, so to compromise and not let her hands get cold, we would do it like this when we were together." Li Ruyi said to An Nanxiu, whose cheeks were flushed red. The weather had turned cold, and the little girl was fine at home, but outside, her hands easily got chilly.

  It turned out that it was because of Li Banzhen that An Nanxiu felt unhappy, but thinking about it, Li Banzhen would never have children with Li Luyu. In the end, Li Banzhen would marry another man and live in a small house with him, while she and Li Luyu would still live in their own small house. So, An Nanxiu didn't mind Li Banzhen anymore, and instead started to like her again.

  Took a bus to the train station, then transferred out of town and saw Yuanhu Mountain in the distance.

  "Is that the ocean over there?" An Nanxiu saw the water in the distance, seemingly endless.

  "That's an artificial bay, it's blocked by the Yuanhu Mountain and can't see the sea." Li Luyu remembered that he had promised Annanxiu to go to the seaside, but now the weather was bad and there was nothing fun at the beach, so they would go in summer.

  When buying a piano, Li Luyu heard An Zhi Shui say that Yuan Hu Shan also played the piano. He knew what this place meant by Yuan Hu Shan. This artificial bay belongs to Yuan Hu Shan. The bay's harbor is moored with sailboats, white sails rising and gently swaying on the water surface, looking magnificent from a distance. Some large multi-masted sailboats even have strong hardware configurations for circumnavigating the globe.

  As for the large and small yachts, there are even more, and a Lamborghini-designed yacht is also docked, originally rumored to be just design drawings, but unexpectedly arrived in China.

  Yuan Tiger Mountain is a small hill connected to a small island, which is famous for its good sea fishing spot due to the surrounding coral reefs and rich fish species.

  Most of the houses on the mountain are hidden in dense forests, and there is a helicopter landing pad at the top of the mountain. The longest outdoor escalator in Asia has been built from the top to the foot of the mountain.

  "What are you sighing about?" Annan Xiu looked at Li Luyu's somewhat astonished expression.

  "If you want to settle down here, ordinary people need to work from the birth of our earth civilization until now." Li Luyu just sighed simply, in fact, if he really took these houses as his goal, Li Luyu thought that he might not be unable to achieve it, although he didn't know where to start, but he knew that he had more courage and capital than others to seize opportunities.

  Mortal beings pursue the enjoyment of all good things in their limited lives, bursting with unique sparks. As for Li Luyu, he likes these things, but doesn't envy them at all, let alone feel jealous, because in his long years, there are more things to do, without having to seize time like ordinary people, struggling and enjoying, then the short life is already over.

  "It's okay, I've been living in that small house with you all along..." Annanxiu thought for a moment and said softly: "I won't mind either."

  If it were someone else, Annan wouldn't care. Some people can easily get some things, while others can't get them no matter how hard they try. This is just a very ordinary thing, whether in the Tianyun Divine Realm or on Earth, it's all the same. But she didn't want Li Ruyi to be down because of these insignificant things.

  Annan Xiu glanced at Yuan Hu Shan with disdain and continued, "My bedroom and garden are much larger than this place. I even have a giant butterfly that is as big as half a bay, which can capsize those broken ships to the bottom of the sea with just one flap."

  But no matter whether it's Ning Gong or Yuan Hu Shan, why does Li Luoyu's rented small house always feel more comfortable?

  Because Annanxiu will treat that place as home, there is a Li Luyou who doesn't understand boundaries but is good at taking care of people.

  "What's with such a big butterfly? Why are you raising it?" Li Luyou was attracted by the giant butterfly.

  "I can sit on it and fly away. It flies very fast, and is also very obedient. When I lie down on it to sleep, it remains still and quiet, maintaining its floating state." An Nanxiu missed the Butterfly a bit, but didn't know when she could return to the Tianyun Divine Realm. Although she always told Li Luyu that she was confident about going back, in reality, it wasn't an easy thing to do.

  "How can it listen to you? Butterfly, isn't your IQ a bit low? Even dogs are better than that." Li Luyu suddenly thought of the Saint Bernard dog Little Cat from An Zhi Shui's house, which couldn't speak but could understand human language.

  "In the field of divine arts, one of the largest branches is contract magic. Different contracts have different effects, and a wise-level divine artist can even sign a contract with a rainbow butterfly spirit beast like this one. The master and the spirit beast can communicate through telepathy." An Nan Xiu glanced at Li Luoyu, "It's much easier than communicating with you."

  It's obvious that every time Annan Xiu stared at Li Luyu, Li Luyu didn't understand what she meant, or simply didn't care about her meaning, and still acted arbitrarily, thinking he was right.

  "I'm not even as good as a lowly creature!" The butterfly's brain capacity is so small, the giant butterfly has a big head, but its brain capacity and body proportion are too small, just like the dinosaur's head is bigger, but its body is even bigger, so they're all relatively stupid.

  Li Luyu felt indignant upon hearing her strike at people like this.

  "Why don't we make a contract instead? That way, you can become my summoned beast and I can summon you anytime." An Nanxiu suddenly thought this was a great idea.

  "When did I become a spirit beast? Summoning beasts again!" Li Luyu would never do such things.

  "Give it a try, who knows if it'll work? Although you're also human, but you were born from a woman, whereas I was plucked from a tree. As a higher being and a lower being signing a contract and enslaving each other, isn't that just the way things are?" An Nanxiu grasped Li Luyu's hand, shaking it excitedly with an expectant look on her face.

  "I'm sorry, as a lower being, our revolutionary predecessors have said that life is precious and love is even more valuable. If it's for the sake of freedom, both can be discarded." Li Luyu wasn't interested, and being with An Nanxiu was likely to come at a great cost and risk one's life. What's more, summoning beasts and enslaving them was too humiliating. Although he and An Nanxiu often insulted each other, this kind of humiliation might not give him a chance to fight back, so it was better to forget about it.

  An Nan pouted, what's the point of this?

  "Higher organism, get off the bus." Happy Valley was the terminal station, others got off first, Annanxiu was still there sulking, Li Luyu held the hand of the higher organism and got off the bus.

  Happy Valley is also doing Christmas activities, and Westernization isn't all bad, at least there are more discounts.

  "Couples' special offer, 60% off... Can participate in various thrilling activities with a couple's ticket, a romantic Christmas, all at Happy Valley..." Li Luyu read the notice.

  Sixty percent off, that's really going to save a lot of money, Li Luyou looked down at An Nanxiu.

  Higher organisms are looking around, discovering Li Rouyou staring at her, with wide eyes, "What's wrong?"

  Li Rouyu pointed at the notice for her to see.

  Thank you for your support, Greedy Bookshelf classmates are too powerful, it seems that tomorrow's daytime refresh will advance the reward total list, and the princess's position will move forward again.
