The Strong Female Lead Versus The Most Miserable Male Lead

Chapter 23: Chapter 23 Stakeout



Liu Cheng exerted his B-grade physical ability to the limit, and his Second-level spiritual power also reached out to check outside the door.

When he appeared at the doorstep, he immediately braked hard, his body leaning forward, his arms excitedly hugging the robot.

"Liu Cheng's package?"

"Distinguished guest, please control your emotions. We do not provide other services. Please verify your identity." The robot's monotone response caused Liu Cheng to hurriedly retract his arms and unfold his Light Computer to verify his identity.

"Beep! Identity verification successful. Please check your package, Mr. Liu Cheng."

The robot stepped back a few paces and, with a wave of its hand, the big rock was placed on the ground.

Liu Cheng first blinked his eyes, struggling to glimpse "corn" through the cracks. He then put the big rock into his Space Button, gave a positive review to the robot, and hurried upstairs.

Returning to his room, Liu Cheng pressed a sequence of buttons to activate the barrier.

The barrier is something interstellar humans use when they do not want to be disturbed during cultivation.

However, at this moment, it became Liu Cheng's perfect cheating method for sneaking a snack.

He couldn't wait to lift the rock lid on top, and the unique aroma of corn intoxicated Liu Cheng as he reached out to take an ear of corn that was still slightly warm.

"Ah—this is the feeling." Liu Cheng devoutly placed it in his mouth. At this moment, he didn't want to say anything else.

Delicious.

Super delicious.

Liu Cheng sat alone on the floor, eating twelve ears of corn.

He kept eating until he could eat no more and then gave up.

Nevertheless, Liu Cheng organized his Space Button and found an insulated box inside, loading the remaining corn into it to ensure it would taste the same the next time he ate it.

Having eaten his fill, Liu Cheng finally had time to think.

Such delicious food, sold so cheaply, must be because it's a new store.

Moreover, he suspected it was surely the handiwork of some top-clan family member practicing their culinary skills.

Only they could afford to distribute delicious food so generously throughout the entire interstellar region.

Liu Cheng had bookmarked the store, determined to buy out all their stock before anyone else discovered the shop.

"Nine fours, that's easy to remember."

Satisfied, Liu Cheng went to sleep, leaving matters of cultivation for tomorrow.

The next day, Nian Shutong replaced her sleep with a night of cultivation and woke up on time, brimming with energy.

Without great strength, she simply could not sleep.

Nian Shutong woke up early, carried her small spade, and headed out. When she reached the potato field, she first took out a second-hand robot she had acquired.

This robot, according to Fu Yunhe, was nothing but a metal frame and completely unusable.

"I've spent money on this... it better work." Nian Shutong stretched out her hand over the robot, running her cultivation technique.

From the robot's ancient golden skeleton, an endless stream of toxins was absorbed by Nian Shutong, filtered, refined, and transformed into spiritual power gathering in her Dantian.

Nian Shutong had thought there wouldn't be much toxin, but now the robot was continuously supplying it.

Her cultivation at the Qi Cultivation First Layer, which had just stabilized, gradually increased and was on the verge of breaking through to the Second Layer.

As for the robot, originally earth-gold in color, its outer shell began to peel off, revealing the dazzling golden color underneath.

"Not bad at all..." Nian Shutong didn't want to end up with a robot she worked hard on just to have it run off, so without caring about its functionality, she attempted to directly form a Divine Sense contract.

"Crack—"

The barrier broke.

Qi Cultivation Second Level, achieved.

The contract was made... or perhaps not, it was uncertain.

"Mechanical Clan, Rubble."
