Their commission was suspicious.

What happened to my master?

"Fine, you forced me to do this." Chen Luo took a deep breath and tossed a copper coin to the other party.

"Oh, what's wrong, nephew? Don't you like this copper coin?" Su Yuan asked curiously after taking back the copper coin she had just given to the other person.

"Now, we might be considered relatives, but we weren't before, right?"

"Uh, I guess so?" Su Yuan said somewhat uncertainly.

"Since I treated you to a meal as a stranger, shouldn't you repay the favor?"

“Yes, but didn’t I give you the copper coins?” Su Yuan nodded and said.

"No, you didn't give it to me. Now take a closer look and see who has the copper coin?" Chen Luo asked, pointing to the copper coin in the other person's hand.

"In...in my hands?" Su Yuan asked, staring at the copper coin in her hand.

"So this means you owe me a favor now, right?"

"No, is there nothing wrong?" Su Yuan was a little unsure.

"So I'm using this favor to get you to call me cousin, and I'll call you cousin," Chen Luo said.

"No way. I don't agree." Su Yuan quickly shook her head, and then tried to stuff the copper coin into Chen Luo's hand, but Chen Luo took a step back and dodged her attempt to give him the money.

"Giving it to me now is useless. If I don't accept it, it means this favor is worthless. Returning a favor requires both parties to be willing," Chen Luo emphasized.

"But, but..."

"There are no 'buts' unless you throw up what you just ate, otherwise you'll definitely owe them this favor!"

"!!!" Su Yuan's eyes widened instantly.

Does this work too?

“But as a cultivator, after eating these things, wouldn’t they turn into spiritual energy to nourish oneself after a while? How could one possibly spit them out?” Su Yuan said with some grievance.

"So you're definitely going to owe this favor. Your master was right, never owe anyone a favor after you go down the mountain." Chen Luo suddenly agreed wholeheartedly with his master's advice.

"Well then, one option is to throw up everything you just ate, and the other is that from now on you call me cousin and I'll call you cousin. Which one do you choose?"

Chen Luo didn't really want things to turn out this way, but he accidentally leaked the information, and he felt he needed to make amends.

Besides, this is also a form of rebuke from the older cousin to his younger cousin.

"I don't want to choose any of them. How about this? I'll give you the sword cultivation techniques I created when I was learning swordsmanship to practice, and that will make up for the favor, okay?" Su Yuan looked at Chen Luo hopefully.

"Sorry, I'm not interested," Chen Luo said directly.

Hilarious, sword cultivators and all that...

Chen Luo was not interested in things that required cultivation.

Besides, if I want to learn your swordsmanship, wouldn't it be better to just buy it from you?

"..." Su Yuan stood there blankly, staring at the copper coin in her hand, lost in thought.

"Alright, alright, I won't make things difficult for you. How about this: when there are other people around, you can call me cousin, and when there's no one else around, I'll call you aunt. Is that alright?" Looking at the other person's completely stubborn little head, Chen Luo finally compromised.

“We’re the same age, I’m even a little older than you, and you still owe me a favor. This is really the biggest concession I can make.”

"Hmm...that's fine. It's settled then, no backing out!" Su Yuan nodded after hesitating for a moment.

"Phew, Master was right after all. Once we get down the mountain, we absolutely must not owe anyone a favor!" Su Yuan said with deep feeling.

“Indeed.” Chen Luo nodded.

LOL, Chen Luo will never meet with the other person in a situation where there are only two of them in the future.

After all, a doll is still a person.

Su Yuan will always be a younger sister.

"Let's go, nephew, let's go home." After resolving this worry, Su Yuan became slightly happier.

"Auntie, have you ever seen an aunt call her nephew 'nephew'? Just like have you ever seen an older brother call his younger sister 'sister'? Or when you were a junior grandmaster, did you never call people by their names, but instead used the titles appropriate for that generation?"

"Uh, no, if it's someone of a lower generation than me, I just call them by their first name."

"So you have to call me by my name, not nephew. Nephew is just a title, not a name."

"Oh, I see. Can I call you Xiao Luo then?" Su Yuan nodded in sudden realization.

"Hmm...you should just call me cousin, let's get to know each other first. Didn't you see I'm already calling you auntie?"

"Besides, you really need to get used to this form of address, because it's the result of a personal discussion between your master and my mother. You should listen to your master, right?"

"This... alright then." Su Yuan nodded after pondering for two seconds.

Su Yuan never expected that if she called Chen Luo "cousin" when no one was around, what difference was there between the agreement they made earlier and directly changing their relationship?

In fact, Chen Luo did not object to the fact that he suddenly had an aunt, nor did he object to calling her aunt.

The main reason was that the other person originally called him "cousin," but suddenly he had to call her "aunt," which made Chen Luo feel a little disappointed.

In short, given enough time, Chen Luo is confident he can completely mold the other person into his cousin.

"Cousin, shouldn't we go home now?" Su Yuan called out quite naturally.

In fact, although Su Yuan had never met Chen Luo, her cousin whom she had never met before, she had called him "cousin" countless times.

After all, Su Yuan didn't know before that she was actually the other person's aunt.

So when asking for directions, I always ask my cousin where he lives, and if he knows which direction it is.

Moreover, the other party's master would often talk about your cousin, where your cousin lives, and what you need to be careful about when you go down the mountain to find your cousin.

So... for Su Yuan, being able to get Chen Luo to occasionally call her "Auntie" is already a huge victory.

Overall... both of them felt they got the best deal.

So, people who stay on the mountain every day aren't entirely without their own ulterior motives.

If the other party really doesn't understand anything, then it won't be the other party going down the mountain to find Chen Luo, but rather Chen Luo going up the mountain to find the other party.

Moreover, the other party's master is no ordinary person.

For example, a special move that Su Yuan's master taught her before she went down the mountain...

That means whenever you encounter trouble, just stand there blankly, looking very aggrieved, and the person who should give in will eventually give in.

"Who can blame me when my little Yuan'er is so beautiful and adorable?"

Huh? You mean someone who won't back down?

That's when it's time to let the other party understand why a sword immortal is called a sword immortal.

What does it mean to have sword energy that stretches across 30,000 miles and a single sword's light that chills 19 provinces?

"Force is not the best way to solve problems, but it is the fastest way. Yuan'er, do you understand?"

"We can't go home yet." Chen Luo glanced at his aunt, who already considered his home as hers.

"Hmm? So, should we go and duel those three S-rank talents first? That works too. Although I don't know how strong they are, half an hour is enough for me to take care of those three S-rank talents." Su Yuan said confidently after thinking for a moment.

"Not at all."

"Then what are you going there for?"

"Buy some ice cream. You just ate all my ice cream, so I need to buy some more, otherwise some people at home won't be happy," Chen Luo said, holding his bag, which was now empty of ice cream.

Just now, when Chen Luo was taking the other person to find a place to eat, he saw that the other person was really hungry, so he gave her the ice cream so that she could have something to eat first, and then... she ate all the ice cream.

"Oh, are my cousin and brother-in-law home too?"

"...Not at home." Logically speaking, Chen Luo calls the other person his aunt, while the other person should indeed call Chen Luo's mother his cousin.

However, Chen Luo felt something was off when he heard the other person call him "cousin" and his mother "cousin".

"Speaking of this, you have to sign something with me before you go home later."

"what?"

“A contract, a confidentiality agreement,” Chen Luo said firmly.

If the contract wasn't clear, Chen Luo wouldn't feel comfortable letting his aunt move in.

Although, rationally speaking, the other party is an S-level talent sword immortal who has cultivated in the sect for so long, what kind of storms hasn't he seen?

But Chen Luo felt that the other party had never seen the storms and waves that had swept through his family.

Therefore, signing a contract is really necessary.

As my future self was right, the Book of Contracts is indeed a very important item.

If that's the case, can Yun Xia, Yun Lian'er, and Liu Wenxuan also reveal some information?

Yun Lian'er seems quite interested in Mora...

Chapter 384 Su Yuan: Inner Demon? Take this sword!

"Huh? You mean you went out and brought back a little aunt?" The Herald of Knowledge looked at the woman Chen Luo brought home with disbelief.

To be honest, if you bring a woman back, that's fine, but why make up such a lame excuse?

That's not right either; judging from the other person's expression, it shouldn't be made up.

Besides, no one can fool the Lawgiver of Knowledge.

But this is also outrageous; he went out and brought back a little aunt.

“It’s my cousin, my cousin. I ran into her on the way,” Chen Luo corrected.

"Alright, alright, let's not talk about your cousin for now. You just brought her home like that?" The Lawbringer was a little confused.

Logically speaking, Chen Luo is extremely strict about protecting his privacy. He would resolutely prevent anything that might reveal his personal information. Bringing a aunt he had only known for a few hours home is not something Chen Luo would do.

"Don't worry, am I unreliable? I signed a contract with her." Chen Luo said, taking out the contract.

"Are you sure everything will be fine after you sign the contract?" Shi Bao looked at the other party suspiciously.

Well, it seems Shi Bao still doesn't quite believe in that Book of Contracts.

“Of course I had done the experiment beforehand. I even had her sign an experimental contract before the formal contract, which was highly mandatory, so you can basically rest assured,” Chen Luo said.

"So that means she'll be living with us from now on?"

“No, she lives next door.” Chen Luo shook his head and pointed to the villa next door.

"Ok?"

"I don't know the specifics either. I only know that my neighbors moved out less than a month ago. I thought they went on vacation, but it turns out they sold the house. I have to say, the sect is really rich," Chen Luo exclaimed.

The house that the other party sold was naturally bought by the sect and then given to Su Yuan.

Therefore, the other party does not need to share a house with Chen Luo.

If it weren't for this, the contract Chen Luo signed with the other party would have been much stricter. However, considering that the other party wouldn't be living in the same house as him, the contract Chen Luo signed was slightly more lenient.

Of course, correspondingly, the other party will also know very little.

After signing the contract, all Chen Luo told her was that he actually had another S-level talent, which was the lowest standard Chen Luo could imagine.

After all, even if your talent level is low, it can't be lower than S-level, right? The other party is also an S-level talent user, and has a more accurate set of judgment standards for evaluating talent than others.

S-class talents are already rare enough.

Chen Luo and Su Yuan signed a mandatory contract, which means that there is no penalty for violating the contract, but rather that the contract cannot be violated.

When the other party speaks the contents of the contract, a special force will force them to shut up.

If there are special coercive situations or if the other party insists on saying something, a special force will erase all of the other party's memories related to the contract, destroying all evidence and leaving no way to verify the truth. At the same time, the other party will also be punished accordingly.

Out of consideration for the fact that the other party was his aunt, Chen Luo didn't impose any clauses on her that would result in her death if she revealed the secret. Firstly, because their relationship was somewhat special, and secondly, because doing so would have made the contract much more expensive.

Unlike the contractual contracts like those of Raven, mandatory contracts are very expensive. Chen Luo spent 10 Honkai Crystals to sign the contract at the beginning.

That's right, it's 10.

Moreover, all 10 Honkai Crystals have been used up.

The good news is that this permanent mandatory contract does not require any further expenditure.

This prevents a situation where the other party is searching for the other's memories somewhere, and Chen Luo is frantically investing in Honkai Crystals here to preserve this secret.
