Chapter 17

One by one, the ice-cold glasses of wine were drunk.

Tony, drunk. The woman, drunk, Zheng Xiaotian, showed a dazed look in his eyes, as if he had drunk a bit too much.

"Tony, I'm drunk. I want to go to your place for some tea," the woman whispered in Tony's ear.

"Are we that familiar yet?" Even though Tony seemed to have drunk a lot, he still maintained his usual vigilance.

"First time strangers, second time friends. Besides, we are already somewhat familiar. As for getting even more familiar, we need to find a more suitable place to get closer," the woman extended her tongue and licked Tony's ear.

At that moment, Tony was already aroused. He stood up, holding the woman with his right arm.

Zheng Xiaotian remained seated. He indeed had some doubts about the woman, but then he thought, if the woman got rid of Tony, Tony's armor would become unclaimed. As long as he took the armor, everything would be done, and he could go home. He would even have to thank her.

"Hey!" Tony patted Zheng Xiaotian's shoulder.

"Huh?" Zheng Xiaotian turned his head to look at Tony.

"Why are you still sitting here? The wine is finished, and if you want more, you have to buy it. Do you have money? Oh, right, you do. But can you afford it?" Tony said to Zheng Xiaotian.

"What should I do then?" Zheng Xiaotian asked.

"Come to my place for some tea. If you want to rest, you can sleep in my bathtub or the living room, just don't enter my bedroom and sleep with my woman," Tony said.

This woman is not simple. If there was someone else around, this would be a total loss. Just thinking about it made Tony feel excited. He was already overjoyed inside.

A hint of surprise flashed in the woman's eyes, but it quickly disappeared. She probably didn't expect that Tony, who usually had no one around, would have someone with him now. Not only that, but he even brought this person along. What kind of relationship did they have? This was crazy!

Zheng Xiaotian had no choice but to stand up.

Tony drove them to a villa at the edge of a mountain in the suburbs of San Francisco. Here, the female occupants changed every month. This was Tony's home, a place where he indulged in pleasure with many women. Here...

"Wow, it's so big!" Zheng Xiaotian couldn't help but exclaim. He had seen Tony's house in movies, but he still wanted to say something. It wasn't this big, look, this living room, this magnificent sea view, and this huge sofa. Three people could lie on this sofa, right? Is this a bed?

"Darling, let's go to the room!" Tony whispered in the woman's ear.

"Okay!" The woman nodded.

Tony, holding the woman's waist, walked step by step toward the second floor.

"By the way, Zheng Xiaotian, you can watch TV or do whatever, but don't touch anything with your hands. If you get into any danger or get hurt, it's your own fault. Don't say I didn't warn you." Tony said this and continued upstairs with the woman.

Zheng Xiaotian was indeed planning to search for treasures in Tony's house. Now, after what Tony said, he gave up. If it was a zombie or something, he wouldn't be afraid. Even if there were zombies, he could handle them with an air bullet. The key was that this was Iron Man's world, with all kinds of high-tech weapons and armor. One slap from them, and he would be in trouble.

Zheng Xiaotian sat on the sofa and closed his eyes. He was at the peak of the second stage of Qi cultivation. Although he didn't know what his cultivation could do in Iron Man's world, it was better than nothing. Since he had obtained a cultivation method in his first穿越 (穿越 means "穿越" in Chinese, which can be translated as "transmigration" or "穿越" in this context, but it's better to use "transmigration" for clarity), cultivation should be necessary. So, he should cultivate.

"Sir!"

"Hmm?" Zheng Xiaotian opened his eyes. In front of him was a holographic projector. If it was a beautiful woman, it would be fine. But the projection was just a stiff robot.

"Would you like something to drink?"

"No!" Zheng Xiaotian waved his hand and closed his eyes, continuing to cultivate.

"Sir!"

"Hmm?" Zheng Xiaotian opened his eyes again.

"Would you like something to eat?"

"No!" Zheng Xiaotian waved his hand again and closed his eyes.

Finally, he entered the state of cultivation again.

"Sir!"

"What do you want?" Zheng Xiaotian glared at the projection.

"Are you cold sitting there? Do you need a blanket?"

"No, no, just disappear from my sight," Zheng Xiaotian waved his hand and closed his eyes. He thought he had made it clear. If the projection still called him, it was just looking for trouble.

He continued to cultivate, entering the state of cultivation.

"Sir!"

"Damn it!" Zheng Xiaotian opened his eyes but couldn't see the projection anywhere. He shouted into the air, "Where are you?"

"Sir, you asked me to disappear."

"Yes!" Zheng Xiaotian nodded. The sound came from all directions, making it feel like the projection was everywhere.

"I disappeared as you asked."

"Alright, I didn't make it clear. I don't just want you to disappear, I want you to shut up," Zheng Xiaotian said.

The room became silent. Clearly, the projection had listened and shut up.

Zzzz!

A vacuum cleaner appeared in the room, moving here and there as if controlled by someone. It circled around Zheng Xiaotian.

"Are you looking for trouble?" Zheng Xiaotian angrily stood up.

The room was silent.

"Speak!" Zheng Xiaotian said.

"Sir, I think the air here is a bit damp. You should open the windows when you come back. If you open the windows, you should use a dehumidifier to absorb the dampness, or your body will be uncomfortable."

Zheng Xiaotian thought, what a strong reason. The system's logic was indeed different from a human brain. Human brains come up with ridiculous reasons, while the system's reasons are so powerful. Amazing!

"Please make the room quiet and stop any actions," Zheng Xiaotian said.

"Okay!"

The room returned to silence. Zheng Xiaotian entered the state of cultivation, gradually extending his divine sense outward.
