Yunhua Residential Area.

The night was dark.

Lu Chuan returned home and locked the door from the inside.

After a quick wash, she immediately took off her coat and sat cross-legged on the bed.

"call……"

He exhaled a breath of stale air.

Close your eyes and let your mind sink into your body.

Although Yao Ye was just a weakling, killing him was no different from killing a chicken.

But the system rewards are still quite generous.

Twenty years of pure true essence.

They directly upgraded him from a four-star Grand Martial Master to an eight-star Grand Martial Master.

If word got out about this rocket-like upgrade speed, all the martial artists in the South City would probably go crazy.

"Strike while the iron is hot."

Lu Chuan had a sudden thought.

In his mind, the profound meaning of the "Reversed Blood and Remnant Life Technique" began to circulate.

Now, with the bug-level passive buff of "unparalleled comprehension," those originally obscure and difficult scriptures are now simpler than plain language in his eyes.

I used to think that this technique was too ruthless in some aspects and could easily damage one's own foundation.

Now, at a glance, it's full of flaws, but also full of solutions.

The internal energy began to circulate along a new route.

Once.

Twice.

He absolutely had to cultivate the Residual Blood Reversal Technique to the corresponding eight-star Grand Martial Master level.

……

time flies.

Silently.

I don't know how much time passed.

"Knock knock knock".

A rapid knocking sounded suddenly.

Upon hearing the noise, Lu Chuan immediately opened his eyes and frowned.

who is it?

Enforcement team?

So they've come knocking on our door already?

Upon realizing this, Lu Chuan instantly leaped off the bed and grabbed the third-grade magic sword he had been hiding under his pillow: the Fishbone Sword.

I walked to the door.

I peeked out through the peephole.

Upon seeing this, he was taken aback.

The person standing outside the door wasn't an assassin, nor a policeman.

It was a girl.

Wearing the blue and white school uniform of Nancheng Martial Arts Academy, carrying a shoulder bag, and dragging a huge pink suitcase.

Her high ponytail was a little messy, with a few strands of hair sticking to her cheeks.

That usually cool and delicate face was now streaked with tears, her eyes red and swollen, making her look pitiful.

Liu Fuyao?

My sister-in-law?

Why is she here?

Why are you dressed so disheveled so late?

Lu Chuan quickly sheathed the fishbone sword, opened the door, and asked softly,

"Soaring high?"

"What are you doing here in the middle of the night?"

The door opened.

Liu Fuyao looked up instantly.

For some reason, the moment she saw her brother-in-law, the tears that had been welling up in her eyes burst forth instantly.

"Brother-in-law..."

She exclaimed in surprise.

Immediately afterwards, the girl threw her suitcase aside and buried her face in Lu Chuan's arms.

"Waaaaah..."

Soft jade and warm fragrance fill my arms.

Lu Chuan froze instantly.

My hands, instinctively raised in mid-air, were caught between a dilemma: whether to put them down or hug them.

This girl is only eighteen years old.

But it developed quite well.

Especially her legs; even in loose school uniform pants, their astonishing length and straight lines were still evident.

The school uniform shirt was stretched taut and bulging.

At this moment, it was pressed tightly against Lu Chuan's chest, trembling with each sob.

A faint scent of jasmine wafted into Lu Chuan's nose.

"Okay, okay, stop crying."

After a long while, Lu Chuan sighed and gently patted her back.

"Let's go inside first. There are so many people coming and going in this hallway. If someone sees us, they might think I'm bullying you."

They pulled Liu Fuyao into the house.

Then they brought in that incredibly heavy suitcase.

Lu Chuan then poured her a cup of hot water and asked softly,

"What happened?"

"Did you have a fight with your sister?"

Liu Fuyao took the tissue and blew her nose hard.

Her eyes, red and swollen from crying, were fixed on Lu Chuan as she gritted her teeth and said...

"Brother-in-law, I have nowhere to go."

"I can't stand that apartment upstairs for even a minute longer!"

"What's wrong?"

Lu Chuan found it somewhat amusing.

This girl usually seems quite aloof, but she only shows this little girl side to me.

"It's all because of Liu Ruyan!"

Liu Fuyao called him by his name directly, clearly indicating that she was extremely angry.

Immediately, she crumpled the tissue in her hand into a ball and slammed it hard on the table.

"Brother-in-law, do you know what really happened tonight?"

"That Su Yan, he's a complete freak."

"He's the one who caused all of this, how can he still feel at ease about it?"

"My sister is the most disgusting one!"

"She didn't react at all, and even wanted me to ride in his car, and kept calling me 'Little Brother Su Yan'!"

"I'm so angry!"

"I asked her to get off the bus, but she wouldn't listen. She even said I was being unreasonable and that I didn't understand her difficulties."

"Pah!"

Liu Fuyao became more and more excited as she spoke.

His chest heaved violently, and the buttons on his school uniform were about to pop off.

"Brother-in-law, you didn't see the look in Su Yan's eyes. He was so smug, like he was showing off to me."

"I felt like throwing up right then and there!"

"When I got home, I saw Liu Ruyan's clothes on the sofa, and I felt disgusted."

"I want to throw all her things away, but I'm afraid of upsetting my parents."

"So I have to walk by myself."

At this point, Liu Fuyao's tears welled up again, and she looked at Lu Chuan with a pitiful expression.

"Brother-in-law, am I particularly useless?"

"I wanted to help you get revenge, but in the end I could only slink away myself."

She actually didn't want to come to her brother-in-law's place.

After all, they were alone together, and there was that kind of relationship between them.

only……

After leaving home, Liu Fuyao walked around the streets for a long time with her suitcase, not knowing where to go.

She didn't have many friends at school because of her aloof personality.

As it got later and later, I had no choice but to stay at my brother-in-law's place.

Lu Chuan felt a warmth in his heart as he listened.

He didn't expect it.

This sister-in-law ran away from home, all because of herself.

At home, Liu Ruyan is a bit clueless. Although her parents-in-law treat her well, they still tend to side with their daughter when it matters.

Only this sister-in-law.

They are truly on my side, and they are genuinely feeling wronged on my behalf.

"Silly girl."

Lu Chuan smiled and reached out to pat her head.

He gently pulled Liu Fu to her feet, ruffling her already messy ponytail until it became even more disheveled before speaking.

"alright."

"You're not useless, you're sensible."

"If you don't want to stay in that house, then don't stay."

"Anyway, although my place is small, it's still fine for one more person to stay here."

"real?"

Liu Fuyao's eyes lit up instantly.

"Brother-in-law, will you take me in?"

"nonsense."

Lu Chuan smiled.

"If I don't take you in, am I supposed to let you sleep on the streets?"

"The guest room has been empty, and the bedding is all new. Please make your own room."

"Thank you, brother-in-law! You're the best!"

Liu Fuyao stopped crying and started laughing.

She stopped crying.

She jumped up, dragged her suitcase, and ran towards the guest room, beaming with joy.

Watching her retreating figure, Lu Chuan shook his head helplessly.

This girl.

In other words, they are stubborn on the outside but soft on the inside.
