Dan Buda!

Neatly dressed, Li Banfeng prepared to head out. Zhao Xiaowan advised, "Husband, Critic's algorithm is quite effective. Let your humble servant run the numbers for two more days, and I'm certain I can calculate the optimal solution." "No need to calculate further," Li Banfeng said, shaking his head repeatedly. "There are too many variables on the battlefield. You understand this better than I do, Madam. If we miscalculate even one step, the whole game is lost." Zhao Xiaowan nodded slightly; what Li Banfeng said was indeed true. Li Banfeng walked over to the Heavenly Maiden. "Just create a single boundary. There won't be any problem this time, right?" The Heavenly Maiden nodded slightly. "No problem." Li Banfeng said, "Once the boundary is made, await my command, and contract the boundary to the designated position in a specific order." The Heavenly Maiden pondered for a moment, then shook her head. "That won't work." Li Banfeng was taken aback. "Why not?" The Heavenly Maiden shook her head. "I can't do it." Li Banfeng froze. Nearby, Hong Ying chimed in, "What kind of talk is that? Brother Seven can do it, yet you, the Ancestral Master of Dwelling Cultivators, can't?" Li Banfeng couldn't understand it either. "I already shared the essential principles with you. Something this simple, and you say you can't do it?" The Heavenly Maiden looked somewhat abashed. "I thought it was simple too, but I've tried several times. I can't move boundaries at will like you do. I can move boundaries, but it requires a great deal of preparation—some take days, while others take months or even years!" How could Li Banfeng have that much time to give her? Hong Ying felt the Heavenly Maiden wasn't putting her heart into it. "I've seen Dwelling Cultivators before, too. Which one of them can't create three to five boundaries?" A'yu also felt something was off. "Even Meng Yuchun set up several rings of boundaries around her home! She demonstrated it to me in person!" The Heavenly Maiden said helplessly, "You said it yourself—that was around her own home! How far is Santoucha from my dwelling? If this were around my own dwelling, I could do whatever you asked!" Li Banfeng pressed her no further. He looked at the Heavenly Maiden and said, "Just make a single boundary. It doesn't have to move, but it must be sturdy. Those inside must not be able to break out easily!" The Heavenly Maiden nodded repeatedly. Li Banfeng walked out of the room. The Heavenly Maiden looked at Zhao Xiaowan. "He was quite intimidating just now." Zhao Xiaowan smiled. "He is the master of this household; naturally, he must possess authority!" *** He Yuxiu sat by the edge of the bed, silently watching Shen Rongqing. The ropes on her body had already been untied, but she refused to eat. Shen Rongqing urged, "Sister Xiu, eat at least a little. You suffered so much fighting in this war. Rest well these next couple of days, and don't be hard on your own body." He Yuxiu looked at Shen Rongqing and suddenly gave a cold laugh. "Over the years in Puluo Province, many people argued about who was truly the province's foremost woman of talent—you or Zhang Xiuling. As I see it, there's no need to argue at all. You're no woman of talent; you're a fucking blind fool with your eyes wide open!" Shen Rongqing bit her lip and hung her head in silence. "I called you a blind fool, didn't you hear me?" He Yuxiu pinched Shen Rongqing's cheek. "Don't look indignant. Just keep following He Jiaqing! If he could sell even me out, do you think he'll spare you? One day you won't even know how you died!" Duan Shuqun spoke up from the side: "Sister Xiu, allow me a word. Jiaqing has been fighting the Inner States with his life on the line all these days. You truly have no idea how many people the Inner States sent!" As he spoke, Duan Shuqun lowered his voice: "I heard from Jiaqing that they possess an Imperial Jade Seal and connected our lands with the Inner States. They're sending troops over every single day—who could withstand that? Jiaqing truly couldn't hold out any longer, so he took this step. Wasn't he forced into it? If he kept resisting, the land would be lost, and our lives would be lost too. What did you expect him to do?" "No matter what, he shouldn't become a dog for the Inner States!" He Yuxiu glared at Duan Shuqun. "Old Duan, out of respect for the man you once were, get out of here right now. Go to Black Rock Slope, find a factory, and work there for now. With your skills, you'll always have a bowl of rice in Puluo Province. You don't need to beg like a dog alongside He Jiaqing!" "Sister Xiu, look at the injuries all over him first—" "Get out!" Duan Shuqun said, "Sister Xiu, there truly are difficulties you don't understand." "Get the hell out!" He Yuxiu kicked Duan Shuqun straight out of the wooden cabin. Pacing twice around the woods by himself, Old Duan felt a gust of wind blow past. Perhaps sand had blown into his eyes, but tears streamed down his face. "What the hell is all this?!" *** Chu Shaoqiang stared at Chu Er, asking with a grim face, "Didn't you say you were injured? I even brought wound medicine. You lied to me?" Chu Er hung her head. "Brother Seven said he needed to find you..." Chu Shaoqiang flew into a rage. "Is Li Qi your father?! Did Li Qi give birth to you?! How many times have you screwed me over for him—" Li Banfeng slowly manifested beside Chu Shaoqiang. "You are the General Pingyuan conferred by the imperial court. Doing things for me is only your proper duty, isn't it?" Chu Shaoqiang shuddered in fright, then forced a bitter smile. "Your Highness, the court and Puluo Province have already fought to such an extent. Isn't bringing up past appointments a bit absurd now?" Li Banfeng shook his head. "I don't find it absurd at all. Once this war is over, I still need to take a good tour of the Shang State. If you end up despised by both sides, it will be hard for this to end well for you." Chu Shaoqiang fell silent for a long while, then shook his head. "It's not that I don't want to help you, but I can't do this. There's no way I can deliver Daogui Ridge into the Underground City." Li Banfeng said, "That makes no sense. Who was it that moved Daogui Ridge from Santoucha to Jianrengang back then? You could do it back then, so why can't you do it now?" Chu Shaoqiang replied, "Back then I had the Heavenly Heart Stone. Now I don't!" Li Banfeng puffed out his chest. "I have the Heavenly Heart Stone!" The thought of it still filled Chu Shaoqiang with resentment—Li Banfeng's Heavenly Heart Stone had been swindled right out of his own hands! Even so, Chu Shaoqiang refused to agree. "The circumstances back then were different. It was peacetime. No one paid attention to Santoucha, and no one paid attention to Jianrengang. Right now, a war is being fought at Santoucha, and countless pairs of eyes from both Puluo Province and the Inner States are glued to it. How am I supposed to move it over? You're asking the impossible. I truly have no way." Chu Huaiyuan said, "Dad, you're the grand master of our Chu family. How can you just say you have no way so casually?" "When there's no way, there's no way!" Chu Shaoqiang snapped angrily. "Never mind that Daogui Ridge can't be moved—even if it could, how on earth could it fit into the Underground City? How high is the Underground City, and how tall is Daogui Ridge?! Could it possibly fit inside?!" Chu Shaoqiang wasn't wrong. Given the ceiling height of the Underground City, even fitting a multistory building was difficult, let alone stuffing Daogui Ridge into it. Li Banfeng felt he might truly be asking too much of Chu Shaoqiang, but Chu Er didn't think so. "Dad, you definitely have a way. You just don't want to get yourself involved, right?" "What way could I possibly have?" Chu Huaiyuan said with a resolute look, "Back when dealing with Lühuazi, you could figure out a way even for something that difficult! Now it's just a single mountain, yet you're finding all sorts of excuses and won't offer Brother Seven a single idea. Does that make any sense?!" Chu Shaoqiang's cheeks twitched; he sorely wanted to beat Chu Huaiyuan. But seeing the sincere look in Li Banfeng's eyes, Chu Shaoqiang's tone softened in the end. "I could move only half the mountain over. But even with just half a mountain, the Underground City still won't fit it. I'd have to tear a hole in the ceiling." Chu Er felt that wouldn't do. "If you open a hole in the ceiling, the commotion would be huge—who wouldn't see it? You clearly don't want to do this properly for Brother Seven!" "Even if they see it, there's no other way!" Chu Shaoqiang glared at Chu Er, then turned to Li Qi. "Your Highness, this is the limit of my abilities. If you want to conceal something of this scale, you'll need to find another expert." *** Where else could he find such an expert? "Machine, can you do it?" Back inside the companion dwelling, Li Banfeng first asked the projector. The projector's lens flickered. "Director Seven, such grand art is beyond my scope of capability." Machine couldn't do it, so Li Banfeng went to Yuan Miaoping next. When Yuan Miaoping heard about it, she was dumbfounded as well. "Such a massive mountain—how could I possibly conceal it? Gang Leader, you think far too highly of me!" If even Yuan Miaoping couldn't do it, who else could? The Heavenly Maiden spoke up: "There is someone who might be able to. She is a Grandmaster Thief Cultivator." Hong Ying sat down beside the Heavenly Maiden. "What can a Grandmaster Thief Cultivator do? Steal the mountain?" Li Banfeng could roughly guess: "This Grandmaster Thief Cultivator you speak of—she's one of your dwelling spirits, isn't she?" The Heavenly Maiden nodded. "Yes, she is one of my dwelling spirits. According to the memories in my body, you should have met her." Li Banfeng nodded. "I have. I know her quite well. For a period of time, I even kept calling her Sister-in-law." The Heavenly Maiden sprang to her feet, her brows raised angrily. "You called her Sister-in-law?! And she answered to it?!" Li Banfeng nodded. "She answered, and very cheerfully at that. Several times, she even invited me into her room to sit." Gritting her teeth, the Heavenly Maiden seethed, "That wretched slut, she simply hasn't been beaten enough! Just ask the Peddler if he ever looked her way! She actually had the face to pose as that! That wench's skin is even thicker than her brother's!" After cursing the Grandmaster Thief Cultivator, the Heavenly Maiden turned a furious gaze toward Li Banfeng. "Why did you call her Sister-in-law? Is 'Sister-in-law' a title you can just throw around casually?!" Li Banfeng said, "I didn't know how else to address her." The Heavenly Maiden sat back down by the bed. After composing herself for a long while, she said, "Her name is Dan Buda." "A fine name!" Li Banfeng praised. "Does she have any connection to Lian Buda?" "What do you think?" The Heavenly Maiden sneered in disgust. "My body was split into halves—one half with A'yu, and the other with Dan Buda. Who do you guess did that?" Lian Buda did it? Li Banfeng saw Lian Buda in a whole new light. The craft of sawing living people in half—he had actually used it on two heavyweight figures of Puluo Province! The Heavenly Maiden continued, "Dan Buda is Lian Buda's younger sister. In her mastery of thief cultivation, she is in no way inferior to Smiling Thousand Hands, though their styles are entirely different. Smiling Thousand Hands prioritizes speed and steadiness, whereas Dan Buda delves into greed and audacity." Li Banfeng thought Smiling Thousand Hands was greedy enough. "You mean Dan Buda is even greedier than Smiling Thousand Hands?" "Far greedier!" On this point, the Heavenly Maiden gave Dan Buda her due. "Smiling Thousand Hands' way of stealing is like a pickpocket snatching a wallet on the street. Dan Buda's way of stealing is wishing she could carry off someone's entire house. And she truly has stolen people's houses before! It was a prominent family of over a hundred people, all sleeping inside their compound. When they woke up the next morning, every single one of them was stripped naked, lying out on the street—the house, the belongings, everything was gone, without even a stitch of clothing left on their backs!" Li Banfeng was astonished for a moment, then praised repeatedly, "She's remarkably skilled." "Skilled she may be, but she's difficult to deal with!" The Heavenly Maiden looked at Li Banfeng with slight helplessness. "Getting her to do anything is extraordinarily difficult." Li Banfeng looked at her. "Why don't you ask her? She's your dwelling spirit, so you two must be close." "Close? Heh heh heh!" The Heavenly Maiden laughed through gritted teeth. "She turned my body into that state, and you think we're close?" "Turned into what?" "Haven't you seen it?" Li Banfeng thought for a long while and shook his head. "I only saw your body at A'yu's place. I haven't seen it anywhere else." The Heavenly Maiden tilted her head, watching Li Banfeng. "Back when you suffered from an excess of popularity and nearly lost your life—have you forgotten that?" Li Banfeng's eyes widened. "Wasn't that a statue of you?" Cold light flashed in the Heavenly Maiden's eyes. "To steal popularity, that wretched slut modified half of my body into a statue! Tell me, how could I be on good terms with her?" "The popularity on the statue was stolen?" Having suffered twice because of it, Li Banfeng had always wondered where the popularity on that statue originated. "What did you think?" Propping her chin on her hand, the Heavenly Maiden looked at him. "Did you think I could just give birth to popularity?" Li Banfeng shook his head. "I didn't think you could give birth to it. I was just wondering how something like popularity could be stolen—" "I can bear children! Don't go spouting nonsense—if your senior brother hears that, I'll never be able to explain myself!" the Heavenly Maiden cried in a panic. "What I meant was, popularity cannot be generated out of thin air; it requires the will of the people to acquire! You've seen the methods for stealing popularity before. He Jiaqing is one example. He stole plenty of popularity in the Outer States, and you even brought back the tools he used to steal it. That method was taught to him by Dan Buda. For He Jiaqing to reach his current level of cultivation, Dan Buda helped him a great deal." Li Banfeng indeed recalled the tools He Jiaqing used to steal popularity—headphones, an antenna, circuit boards, and even a fox tail... "It seems He Jiaqing didn't use a statue." The Heavenly Maiden shook her head. "He Jiaqing hasn't mastered the craft completely yet. Certain methods of Dan Buda's are beyond his ability to use." "Who did Dan Buda learn these methods from?" Recalling those events, the Heavenly Maiden's memory was vivid: "She comprehended the method on her own. At first, Dan Buda used my body directly to steal popularity, but my body couldn't hold too much popularity, so the amount she could collect was limited. Thus, she brought in an Artisan Cultivator Chief to remodel me into a stone statue." The others didn't quite grasp it. Hong Ying asked directly, "Can a stone statue collect more popularity? Wouldn't a living person work better?" The Heavenly Maiden looked at Hong Ying, wondering how to explain it to her. "If I were a celebrity in the Outer States, I might gather vast amounts of popularity. But if I'm merely an unfamiliar woman, even if good-looking, how much popularity would you give me if you saw me on television?" Hong Ying still didn't understand. Before meeting Yuan Miaoping, she had rarely watched television. Li Banfeng was quite familiar with television. He asked the Heavenly Maiden, "You've been on television?" The Heavenly Maiden nodded. "I have. You've seen me, too." "I've seen you?" Li Banfeng didn't believe it. The Heavenly Maiden was absolutely certain: "Anyone who watches television regularly has seen me in certain programs—those statues that look beautiful, somewhat majestic, yet of unknown origin. Such statues might appear in television dramas, documentaries, commercials, or even completely random behind-the-scenes clips. Seeing such a statue, people assume they are looking upon a deity, and to varying degrees, they grant a measure of awe and reverence. The awe granted by each individual is minuscule, and the corresponding popularity is tiny as well. But there are billions of people in the Outer States, and all of them have seen such statues on television, almost daily. With such a massive base, coupled with high-frequency appearances, the popularity harvested is something ordinary people cannot even imagine." Li Banfeng racked his brain trying to recall scenes from television. He truly had seen some nameless statues. Yet when trying to recall the appearance of the Heavenly Maiden statue, he couldn't think of any that matched her likeness. To be precise, Li Banfeng couldn't even remember what those statues looked like. The Heavenly Maiden shook her head. "Don't bother trying. You won't remember the statues' features. You and I are both Dwelling Cultivators; even if you saw them and felt a flicker of awe at the time, you would overlook it afterward. Relying on this method, Dan Buda harvested an untold amount of popularity from the Outer States. A single glance at the statue nearly killed you, and another glance was still unbearable. Even if you had ten lives, the popularity stored in that stone statue would be enough to finish you off ten times over." Li Banfeng touched Yuan Miaoping's antenna and asked the Heavenly Maiden, "How could you appear on television so frequently?" Yuan Miaoping spat out a bubble of gum and hung her head. "Gang Leader, I'm completely loyal to you!" The Heavenly Maiden glanced at Yuan Miaoping, then looked at Li Banfeng. "You already know the answer; there's no need to ask me. Song Shu is Yuan Miaoping's disciple. She is so young, yet her cultivation is so high—where do you think her popularity came from? And Song Shu isn't Yuan Miaoping's only disciple. She has many subordinates in the Outer States, all of them formidable experts. Where did the cultivation of those people come from?" Li Banfeng stroked the back cover of Yuan Miaoping's television set. "You still have many disciples in the Outer States?" Yuan Miaoping looked up at Li Banfeng piteously. "Gang Leader, don't listen to this crazy hag's instigation! Her man is gone, her mind has gone bad, and she's speaking nothing but nonsense!" The Heavenly Maiden flew into a rage. "Who are you saying is gone?!" Zhao Xiaowan hastily changed the subject. "Did Dan Buda collect all this popularity just to win over Yuan Miaoping?" The Heavenly Maiden shook her head repeatedly. "The world bustles for profit. This is a massive business—how could it be just for Yuan Miaoping? Far too many people want to buy popularity! How many local gods spend their entire lives unable to ascend even to the second tier above the clouds? Over these years, Dan Buda has reaped far too many benefits from this popularity trade. In that little pavilion atop the clouds, the treasures are piled so high they can barely fit inside." Zhao Xiaowan sighed. "The name Dan Buda was chosen wrongly. Her courage is absurdly vast! I have never seen such a greedy thief. Even Smiling Thousand Hands falls far short of her." "It depends on how you compare them!" The Heavenly Maiden recalled Smiling Thousand Hands' prowess. "In a face-to-face fight to the death, ten Dan Budas might not be a match for Smiling Thousand Hands. But as for a business of this scale, Smiling Thousand Hands couldn't touch it in a lifetime—he wouldn't even dare dream of it." A'yu felt something was fishy. "With such a lucrative way to make money, why would Dan Buda teach it to He Jiaqing?" "I forced her to!" Speaking of this, the Heavenly Maiden wore a look of smug satisfaction. "She made so much off me; I had to claw some back no matter what! Even though I was trapped in the Outer States, that house atop the clouds is mine—it's the home of him and me. When we were inside that house, we loved each other the most..." At this point, the Heavenly Maiden suddenly broke into sobs. Li Banfeng quickly handed over a handkerchief. "Cry later. Let's talk business first." The Heavenly Maiden wiped her tears. "She is my dwelling spirit, so I could use the dwelling to keep her in line. I forced her to teach her craft to He Jiaqing!" A'yu asked, "Why were you so good to He Jiaqing? Did you think he could rescue you?" The Heavenly Maiden sighed. "If it were you, trapped for so long, wouldn't you try to find a way out? Back then, weren't you also so desperate to get out of here that you joined forces with me to deceive them?" A'yu lowered her head. "What's in the past is best left unsaid." The Heavenly Maiden hung her head, looking miserable. "Back then, I wanted to get out too. Granny Ku and the others laid down conditions, and I had no choice but to agree. For that, I painstakingly crafted a fake Red Lotus. Who knows how much blood and sweat I poured into it?" Fifth Miss gritted her teeth. "I can't say how much effort you poured into it, but the flesh and blood on that fake Red Lotus belonged to me!" The Heavenly Maiden frowned. "What kind of talk is that? Didn't the flesh and blood of the real Red Lotus belong to you as well?" Fifth Miss pondered for a moment and nodded. "That does make some sense." No sooner had the words left her mouth than Fifth Miss lunged before the Heavenly Maiden and bit down hard on her cheek, cursing incoherently around her mouthful, "I'll fucking kill you!" Zhao Xiaowan grabbed Fifth Miss and pulled. "You're a student! You're a woman of refinement! Let go with your mouth first!" Hong Ying and A'yu rushed over to help as well. The three of them pulled for quite a while before finally separating the two. A bloody set of teeth marks was left on the Heavenly Maiden's cheek, yet she didn't seem to feel the pain. "That real Red Lotus was something he and I made together. Whenever I think of that real Red Lotus, I think of him. He and I—" Zhao Xiaowan also passed over a handkerchief. "Don't cry. Business first! Then how did you end up in my husband's hands?" After calming down for a moment, the Heavenly Maiden said, "I deceived Song Shu, telling her I would give Red Lotus to He Jiaqing. Song Shu believed me, pulled numerous strings, rounded up a bunch of people, and joined hands with Yuan Miaoping to finally find a way to get the fake Red Lotus out of the Dark Star Bureau. But none of them knew that my soul was inside that fake Red Lotus. That time, I truly got out. "Yet in order to leave the Dark Star Bureau, I relinquished all my combat strength. At the time, I couldn't do anything, so I could only stay by He Jiaqing's side and help him concoct pills. He Jiaqing didn't look very smart, so while concocting pills, I took plenty of cuts for myself, hoping to return to Puluo Province once my strength recovered. Who would have thought that I underestimated that wretched thief He Jiaqing?" Zhao Xiaowan guessed what followed. "He Jiaqing stole all the cuts you took." The Heavenly Maiden looked at Zhao Xiaowan. "You are far too clever. Not only did He Jiaqing steal my cuts, but he even stole my pill-refining craft." Fifth Miss gritted her teeth. "That was my craft!" "Yes, it was all your craft; we'll argue about that later," Zhao Xiaowan said, before asking the Heavenly Maiden, "He Jiaqing was actually able to steal your cuts right under your nose? And you didn't notice?" The Heavenly Maiden's expression turned solemn at once. "One truly cannot underestimate him on that front. I never spoke in front of him, never made any superfluous moves, and whenever I occasionally talked to myself, I avoided him completely. I thought I hadn't shown a single flaw, yet he had been guarding against me all along. When he moved to steal the cuts, I was caught completely off guard. That man is a prodigy of thief cultivation—no wonder he absorbed the best from both Smiling Thousand Hands and Dan Buda! "After the cuts I'd hoarded were stolen by him, I was still trying to figure out how to steal them back. But instead, he found a raw beginner to deliver me to Puluo Province. Returning to Puluo Province was a good thing, and I was quite happy about it. Who knew that raw beginner had no sense? As soon as he arrived in Puluo Province, he made a beeline for the Peddler, nearly getting me killed. After that, that person locked me inside Little Train, locking me away for all those years! At the beginning, my life was so bitter—every bite of food depended on reading others' faces, and that vicious woman only gave me her leftovers to eat! Later on, my life was even more bitter—your entire family only gave me what was left over after you finished! I was someone who used to be the grand master of Puluo Province, and you treated me like this! Whenever I think about it, my heart aches with grievance—" Hong Ying slapped the handkerchief onto the Heavenly Maiden's face. "Didn't we tell you? Stop crying! Business first!" The Heavenly Maiden wiped away her tears. "I've told you all the business. Dan Buda is someone who can get things done. Whether you seek her out or not is for you to decide." Li Banfeng stood up. "I'll go find her. With her and Chu Shaoqiang joining forces, this will definitely work." The Heavenly Maiden blinked. "What if she refuses to help you?" Hong Ying stood up and rolled up her sleeves. "What's so hard about that? In a moment, I'll drag her out and beat her half to death. Would she still dare refuse?" The Heavenly Maiden looked at Hong Ying. "You might not be able to beat her." Hong Ying gave a scornful laugh and turned to pick up her spear. "Are you joking? Didn't you say she was no match for Smiling Thousand Hands? Smiling Thousand Hands has already died at our hands—what does she amount to?" The Heavenly Maiden sighed. "You act too rashly. I just told you, she has an entire room full of treasures, and quite a few of those treasures can fight. They're not easy to deal with. What's more, she possesses my statue. Li Qi has already suffered twice from it. Do you think you can endure that much popularity?" Li Banfeng was already prepared. "I'll guard against the statue. What other treasures does she have? Give me a rough rundown." The Heavenly Maiden shook her head. "Over the years, many people wanted to get some popularity from her—some wanted to steal it, some wanted to rob it, and the Peddler couldn't guard that house every single day. Yet after so many years, of those who entered the house, hardly anyone came out alive. This isn't as easy as you think. If you go find her alone, she definitely won't help you. Even if you fight to the death and force her out, she'll slack off and deliberately cause trouble, and the matter still won't be settled. Take my advice: bring three extra people with you to find her, and she will definitely help you." "Which three?" The Heavenly Maiden rose to her feet. "The first person is me! I am a Dwelling Cultivator, and she is a dwelling spirit. Without my permission, she cannot leave the dwelling." Li Banfeng nodded. "Then I'll take you along." "Think it through carefully. If I return to that dwelling, I will see the other half of my body. What I will become afterward, even I cannot say for certain." The Heavenly Maiden was indeed somewhat crazy, but being crazy had its perks—at least she spoke with sincerity. Puluo Province had already reached such a dire state, and Sea Market was constantly receiving reinforcements. Li Banfeng deliberated for a moment, then agreed. "I'll take you! What about the other two?" "The second person is her older brother. The siblings share a good bond. If Lian Buda advises her a bit, she should listen." Li Banfeng nodded. "I'll go find Lian Buda; he will definitely agree." "The third person is Dan Buda's good friend. Dan Buda doesn't have many friends, but she definitely counts as one!" The Heavenly Maiden looked toward Yuan Miaoping. Yuan Miaoping had already cut her bangs, stripped off her denim jacket, changed into a tracksuit, and wiped away the heavy makeup on her face. Looking up with tears in her eyes, she gazed at Li Banfeng: "Gang Leader, I'm actually an obedient and sensible girl. Dan Buda and I are just nodding acquaintances. Bringing me along won't do much good..." Li Banfeng hoisted Yuan Miaoping onto his shoulder and said to the Heavenly Maiden, "Pack your things. Let's move!"
