Warning

Stefan cultivated the whole morning and finally felt a wonderful feeling in his body, but, the more wonderful he felt, the stinker he smelled.

Even Li couldn't take it anymore, so he pinched his nose and shouted towards Stefan, "Brother, you smell so bad!''

Stefan woke up from his concentration and suddenly smelled a disgusting stench, after following the smell he realized that it was coming from his own body.

''Eww....'', he pinched his nose and asked Heli, 'What is this? Why am I smelling like this?'

'Host, even if, after arriving in this world, you were given an outstanding vessel, it doesn't mean that it has no impurities at all. These are the impurities that were present in your body. As your strength progresses, your body will secrete the impurities in your body to make it easier for you to cultivate'.

''So that's how it is!'', Stefan exclaimed and got out of the bed.

Before going to the bathroom he instructed Aouli, "Li, if you are feeling hungry you can eat those snacks in the drawers of the bedside table''.

''Yes Brother!'', he exclaimed excitedly and ran towards the bedside table after getting out of the bed.

Li took a packet of potato chips and tried to tear them. He didn't know how to tear them, he pouted sadly. Finally, after observing around him to make sure no one was looking at him, he bought the packet close to his mouth and tried to tear the packet with his teeth.

After it was opened, Li took out one piece from the packet to eat. The moment he finished eating one piece, he couldn't wait to stuff another piece in his mouth. While eating, he could not stop himself at all.

....

The packet was finished when Li reached out his hand for another piece. He sighed like an adult and puffed out his chubby cheeks. While he was in grief for the finished packet of chips, his eyes fell on two pieces of chips that were lying on the ground pitifully.

He licked his lips and stared at them greedily. Just when his hands reached out to pick up the pieces, another big hand carried him over from the ground to someone's arms.

''You are not allowed to eat that, Li!'', Stefan said sternly.

Aouli was shocked when he was picked, he did not realize when his brother came out of the bathroom.

...

About five minutes ago...

Just as Stefan finished showering, he realized that his hair color was changed back to his original one. It was so conspicuous that even Stefan himself couldn't stop himself from observing his beautiful and handsome face that transcended all genders.

He watched for about two minutes, and then he asked Heli if it was okay to show Aouli his true appearance. Heli replied to him that, since Li was someone Stefan wanted to take care of, it was only right to show him his true appearance.

Stefan agreed with Heli on this matter, because he himself didn't know when he would be able to contact Li's parents. It was one of the reasons why Stefan wanted Li to be his younger brother. He did not want Li to be left alone in that town, with no one to care for him. His heart just could not be at peace leaving that amnesiac child with strangers.

Besides, Stefan really liked Li very much. Li was a foodie just like him and would also be able to brighten this cold house.

In his previous life, he always lived alone. Only some of his college batch mates used to visit his house. And two of them were westerners, they preferred to eat with spoon or fork. That was why, he who originally only used his hands to eat food, learned to eat with both the chopsticks and spoon.

He chuckled as his past life's memory flashed by. He remembered now he was not alone. Furthermore, he had Heli and Aouli with him. He will not be lonely anymore.

With that thought and a new determination, he decided to tell Li about his true appearance and why he had to hide it. In this way, he will not have to lie to Li, and he can be open about his investigation on the higher-ups.

He opened the door and was surprised to see Li squatting on the ground. He walked closer towards him and saw the empty packet of potato chips......

..... What else did he not understand?

He picked up Li and told him sternly not to eat things that have fallen to the ground. As the ground contains germs, those germs come in contact with the fallen food and pollute the food with bacteria. After eating that food, one will have a severe pain in his stomach and won't be able to eat snacks anymore for some time.

He cautioned him for a few minutes. When Li realized that the lecture was finally over, he breathed a sigh of relief and finally pointed his hand towards Stefan's changed appearance.

''Brother, what did you do to become this beautiful?'', Li asked according to the existing knowledge in his mind.

''Brother just removed his disguise. Earlier, Brother had to disguise himself in order to avoid the higher-ups'', Stefan replied solemnly.

''Are the higher-ups name of some bad group of people?'', Li asked innocently.

''I still do not know if they are good or bad kind of people. But Li, always remember to hide your strength well in front of anyone. Only use your real strength when your life is in danger. While cultivating magic, there will be many competitors waiting for your defeat, some of them might even want to succeed by destroying your life. You must always be aware of the dangers surrounding you. Also, Li, it is likely that you were purposely left in that town'', Stefan decided to convey his guesses to Li.

''Did my parents not like Li anymore? Is it because Li eats very much?'', Li asked, tears welling in his beautiful blue eyes.
