Chapter 107: Just Friends
The most important was, after they went in, the waiter activated the Inhibition Formation, the spiritual qi of heaven and earth instantly got richer in the room. It was even comfortable to inhale in the room.
"You can’t resort to forces!"
The waiter thought of something else and continued, "Also, you cannot steal or swindle somebody. If you were to be caught by the Heaven Prison Army, you would be imprisoned. There is not much else to be careful about. It is quite safe in the Heaven Prison City. If someone wants to give you some trouble out of no reason, you can shout out and soon the Heaven Prison Army will arrive. As long as you have legitimate reason, you will be okay even if the other guy is a powerful warrior at the Fate Wheel Realm or the Eternal Realm."
Lu Li nodded. The city was protected by strict law. People would feel safe and secure here.
Lu Li asked more questions, seemingly random ones, but he managed to get a lot of information.

Lu Li let the waiter leave after he questioned for the time it took for two incense sticks to burn. Lu Li now had a basic understanding of the situation. Liu Yi had been sitting there aloof, uttering no word. After the waiter left, she asked immediately, "Lu Li, where do we sell the Blood Caterpillar Fruits tomorrow?"
Besides, their identities would be revealed easily. There were many people from all sides. All the forces would pay their attention to this place. Maybe the fruits were sold on the first day, and the next day, people would know it was Lu Li and Liu Yi who sold them.
Lu Li didn’t spent too much time thinking before he looked up and said, "We will go to the Heaven Prison Chamber of Commerce. I would rather we selling at a lower price than having our information released."
The Heaven Prison Chamber of Commerce was one that belonged to the family of the Old Man of the Heaven Prison, the Overlord of the Thousand-island Lake. Their fortune was enormous. How would they crave some Blood Caterpillar F
ruits?
The acquirement of the secret would mean endless flows of Xuan Energy. Many forces would covet it.
"Okay!"
When they settled this matter, the two did not have much to do. Lu Li sat for a while and realized the atmosphere was a bit awkward, so he just sat on the ground with his legs crossed, ready to cultivate.
Liu Yi felt the same way. Seeing that Lu Li was sitting quietly and meditating, she remained seated for a while before going to the bathroom.
There was only a curtain in the bathroom, which meant that as long as Lu Li stood up and lift up the curtain, he could see a beauty taking a bath.
Lu Li was about to turn 16. He was in the salt of youth. Inevitably, he had some imagination and longings for the body of the fairer sex. It was not so obvious in the average days, but the current situation had made his mind go wild.
While Lu Li was in wild thoughts of fancy, Liu Yi had finished her bath. She lifted up the curtain and walked out. She had changed into a clean robe, and her hair was wet. The sweet smell from her reached Lu Li’s nose.
She slowly walked towards Lu Li on purpose and sat on the bed. Then she said gently, "Lu Li, you go and take a bath as well. We sweated while wandering about the God-down City."
Taking a clean robe out of his bundle, Lu Li went into the bathroom. When he got in, his eyes were wide open, and his body trembled.
The belly wrap and the undergarments were the most private underclothes girls wore. Had Lu Li, a virgin, ever seen this before? In the old days, he would blush while walking pass a store selling undergarments without daring to look at it…
Liu Yi, who was sitting outside, seemed to have realized it. She quickly got up, rushed to the bathroom, picked up the clothes with a blush and ran out.
Liu Yi dried her hair and tucked herself under the cover. She did not respond. She finally managed to summon up the courage after the time it took for half an incense stick to burn. "Maybe… you can get up here and sleep as well? Tomorrow, we are going to sell Blood Caterpillar Fruits. The bed is large enough. We can sleep on two sides. It is okay…"
It was like a thunder body striking in Lu Li’s head. He became tense. He kept swallowing his saliva. Liu Yi’s meaning was quite clear; she was inviting him to be with her.
Lu Li took a deep breath. He forced himself to calm down. He thought about his parents who were still under the Ice Abyss and Lu Ling who was taken away to the Cyan Plains, a faraway place. Soon, Lu Li regained his clear mind.
Liu Yi’s implication was subtle, but Lu Li understood. He could be with Liu Yi but still be friends. He didn’t have to be responsible for her. He was not going to owe the Liu Family anything. It was totally without any strings attached…
