Lying on the soft water pillow, Ye Chuan actually fell asleep without realizing it.
He slept soundly until dawn.
The night passed uneventfully, XX.
"I actually slept that deeply," Ye Chuan murmured as he sat up, then stretched his neck, which emitted a series of cracking sounds.
Perhaps due to the different heights, Luo Xi's pillow was definitely the most comfortable to rest on, while Lan Xiaoke's was a bit too high; burying his face in it for too long made his neck uncomfortable.
After a simple wash-up, Ye Chuan left his room. Since the Adventure World had refreshed last night at midnight, he was considering whether to enter a one-time Strange World or go to the Tianxuan Continent to continue making money.
Undoubtedly, making money was definitely not a loss. At the very least, the money exchanged for those spirit stones could allow him to enhance and upgrade his weapons and magical treasures, effectively improving his combat power.
"Going to earn spirit stones isn't a bad idea either." Just as Ye Chuan was thinking this, his nose caught the pleasant aroma of food.
He looked up and saw that Luo Xi was already making breakfast, wearing an apron. Unusually, there was an extra figure sitting at the dining table.
"Lilith, good morning." Seeing Lilith sitting on the chair, Ye Chuan greeted her with a smile.
Lilith didn't speak, just looked at Ye Chuan with a certain expression.
"What's wrong?"
"I suggest you install some soundproofing magic at home," Lilith said, sipping the hot milk tea in front of her. "Every night, almost every single night, there isn't a single quiet day."
"Especially that Lan Xiaoke is the loudest! Always going on about 'I'm coming, I'm coming'," Lilith pointed a small finger. "The soundproofing is just too poor!"
"Uh..." Ye Chuan's mouth twitched.
But there was nothing Ye Chuan could do about it. Often, it wasn't that he took the initiative; rather, when the other party goes all out, what can you do?
"Huh? Who's calling me?" By the wall, the just-awakened Lan Xiaoke, also wearing loose pajamas, scratched an itch with her hand inside her clothes, her face still dazed.
"Mmm."
Lan Xiaoke's head of white hair was as messy and disheveled as ever, still maintaining its usual slacker vibe.
"Lilith, you should be able to use soundproofing magic, right?" Ye Chuan asked with a smile.
"I'm currently under a 【Magic Ban】, can't use magic," Lilith replied, crossing her arms and slightly raising one leg.
"Magic Ban?"
"It's a method to maintain high magic power within the body, lasting about a week," Lilith explained. "It's up to you."
"I don't really have a problem with it," Ye Chuan said, glancing at his walls, which were actually quite thick.
If one wasn't using spiritual sense or magic perception, they shouldn't be disturbed, right?
"But this isn't really an issue." Ye Chuan directly opened the renovation function. Soundproofing could be set separately; adding more soundproofing material wasn't a problem.
"Come have breakfast first?" Luo Xi, unaware of what Lilith and Ye Chuan were discussing, was wearing a cute Pikachu apron and holding breakfast sandwiches in both hands.
"Thanks, Xi Xi." Lan Xiaoke held out her plate.
"Haven't washed up yet, have you?" Luo Xi bent over slightly, pinching Lan Xiaoke's chubby cheek with one hand. "Go brush your teeth~"
"Brushing after eating is cleaner..." Lan Xiaoke made muffled sounds from being pinched.
"No, go brush your teeth now." Luo Xi let go and shook her head.
"Oh." Lan Xiaoke could only toddle off to brush her teeth.
"Is Qian Shuang not up yet?" Ye Chuan asked after sitting down.
"Qian Shuang got up very early. She already went to the training room to cultivate a while ago," Luo Xi said. "Is it okay? Lately, Qian Shuang has been cultivating extremely diligently."
"It's fine," Ye Chuan said. After all, Bai Qianshuang's great vengeance was not yet avenged, and she had also received the Female Emperor's inheritance, so it wasn't strange for her to work a bit harder.
More effort now meant more reliable strength for destroying the Qingyun Sect in the future.
"Good morning, everyone!"
Just then, Ye Chuan noticed Wang Yanran also emerging from her room. However, compared to everyone else's pajama attire, Wang Yanran was dressed in a small white professional suit and had already done her makeup.
"Is the room satisfactory?" Ye Chuan asked after taking a sip of milk.
"Extremely satisfactory!" Wang Yanran smiled.
This certainly wasn't just politeness. Ye Chuan's rooms were all independent spaces; the inside and outside were completely different in size. It was like no one would guess that a training room inside a small house could be tens of thousands of square meters.
The rooms Ye Chuan prepared for everyone were also quite large, at least several tens of square meters. Wang Yanran was utterly amazed after moving in.
But that wasn't the main point. The key was that Wang Yanran had spent the entire night cultivating, absorbing spiritual energy, and simply couldn't stop.
"It's fantastic. I never thought I could cultivate non-stop one day," Wang Yanran also marveled. If everyone hadn't gotten up, she would have wanted to stay in her room and keep cultivating.
But since the boss was out, Wang Yanran felt it would be impolite to stay holed up in her room without coming out to say hello.
"As long as you like it." Ye Chuan didn't say more, as Wang Yanran was someone he acknowledged.
Of course, Yanran moving in, like Luo Xi, came with no rewards; it was purely just living at home.
And it had been a while since there was a new tenant at home.
Considering there were quite a few extraordinary people at home, Ye Chuan was also curious about what kind of character the next tenant would be.
They might not necessarily be very strong.
But they definitely needed to have some useful skills.
"Miss Yanran, come have breakfast." Luo Xi had also prepared breakfast for Wang Yanran. Seeing there was a portion for her, Wang Yanran quickly stepped forward to take it.
"Thank you, you're too kind. I could have made it myself."
"It's no trouble. I prepare most of the meals at home anyway. One more person doesn't matter," Luo Xi replied, being the one who most enjoyed doing household chores.
"What time did you get up, Xi Xi?" After washing up and returning, Lan Xiaoke plopped down and started eating breakfast.
"Hmm, around five, I think?" Luo Xi pondered.
"That early?" Lan Xiaoke was curious. "What do you get up that early for?"
"Ever since starting cultivation, sleep isn't really that necessary anymore, right?" Luo Xi said with a smile. "I get up in the morning to absorb some spiritual energy first, then go for a run, afterward check out the market for ingredients, and then come home to take a bath and cook."
Lan Xiaoke counted on her fingers, then looked at the clock on the wall.
It was only a little past nine now.
It felt like everything Luo Xi did in one morning could match Lan Xiaoke's activity level for an entire day.
"Xi Xi, you're too high-energy, too dazzling," Lan Xiaoke said, acting as if blinded. "My eyes are going to fall out!"
"You could take Xiaoke along for your daily runs from now on," Ye Chuan's gaze fell on Lan Xiaoke's little belly.
"Perfect timing, Xiaoke could stand to lose some weight."
Lan Xiaoke's legs were fleshy, she had a slightly protruding little belly, and her face was chubby. Although she couldn't be called fat, she really could slim down a bit.
Lan Xiaoke looked utterly startled: "OvO?!"

ts me of treason?" "Correct. The host must return to the capital and gradually build up influence." "Wait—I have half a million soldiers, and you want me to go back to the capital to 'build influence'?" "Host, you are currently the Northern Garrison General, loyal to the Great Xia Dynasty." "Of course I am loyal to Great Xia! Absolutely loyal!" "But you keep referring to yourself as 'We'..." "Never mind the details! Summon all the regional commanders and military officers! We suspect treacherous officials are manipulating the court! They shall march with Us to the capital and purge the corrupt!" "......"

s the Eldest Princess, renowned for her cold and aloof detachment, became the most docile of lambs, obeying his every command without question. But when the final move was played on the chessboard, as Gu Chenghan seized everything and ascended on the verge of apotheosis, that very Princess suddenly embraced him from behind, her tone carrying a dependence never heard before: "Wait... you haven't yet... commanded me to love you forever." Gu Chenghan froze abruptly. She... hadn't been hypnotized?! ...

to panic—he has a system. As long as an investment target dies, he can claim a reward. And since he is immortal, the one thing he has plenty of is time. ... Countless years later. “Immortal Emperor of Longevity? I invested in him.” “Supreme Celestial Venerable? I invested in him.” “Undying Empress? I invested in her.” “...” “Heh. Once they’ve all died, even the Heavenly Dao will have to kneel and call me Dad.”

uld barely embark on the path to immortality. Just as he was on the verge of death, his golden finger awakened. No matter whether it was poison, drained blood and vital energy, diminished lifespan, or any other physical debuff caused by paying a price—once midnight passed, everything would be refreshed. From then on, whenever someone asked what kind of person Chu Ran was, the answer was simple: Forbidden arts that other cultivators dared not learn? Chu Ran would learn them. Prices that even demonic cultivators dared not pay? Chu Ran would pay them. Lifespan that even righteous cultivators dared not burn? Chu Ran would burn it. All the blood essence in his body? Take it. Want both his hands and feet? He would cut them off and send them to you. You say he’s finished? He wasn’t built to sit idle. You think he’s gone mad? No—he was simply waiting for midnight. From that day onward, Chu Ran would respect neither Heaven nor Earth, bow to neither gods nor ghosts. He had only one wish: For midnight to arrive a little sooner.
