It was clear that Lan Xiaoke locking the door had also cut off her own retreat. In the end, she didn't even have the strength to make a sound turning the lock.
We lost. We couldn't take this zone.
"Our attack failed," Lan Xiaoke said unwillingly, clutching a pillow.
Luo Xi also had her eyes closed at this moment, as if she had resigned herself to fate.
√√√×
"What's wrong, can't stand up anymore?" Ye Chuan looked at Lan Xiaoke and Luo Xi, simply shaking his own controller.
"If the future belongs to you, prove it to me!"
But Lan Xiaoke slowly raised her face, a fighting spirit igniting in her eyes, determined to seize that future.
"We... we still have our final assault..."
"Don't get all smug on your own, don't look down on us!"
Luo Xi also struggled to prop herself up, seeming to catch the fighting spirit as well. "It's not over yet, Chuanchuan..."
Final Assault!
Ye Chuan was stunned. He saw the locked door beside him being twisted open, and a black-haired young woman gracefully stepped out, emanating an icy aura.
Seeing the chaotic battlefield, she said calmly, "You've worked hard. Leave the rest to me."
We received reinforcements from Bai Qianshuang.
Ye Chuan was stunned. From his perspective, Bai Qianshuang also carried a sense of pressure, ready to crush him.
"To go this far, huh?" Ye Chuan subconsciously wiped a cold sweat from his brow.
"I may have gotten weaker, but that doesn't mean you've gotten stronger!"
"Take down Little Ye Chuan!" Lan Xiaoke grabbed her weapon and charged directly!
...
The night passed without further ado, XXXX.
The next day.
"Ouch, ouch..."
Ye Chuan sat at the dining table, drinking milk from his cup. Even though healing magic had restored his physical fatigue, the mental exhaustion still required proper rest.
"Being a kid is pretty tough too, though I'm not really a kid." Ye Chuan looked at his slender arms and legs. If not for his good constitution, he wouldn't have been able to handle staying up all night playing games like that.
"I was supposed to go to work last night, but I didn't make it to the Tianxuan Continent."
Ye Chuan took out a pill that restored mental energy, casually tossed it into his mouth, and then finished the breakfast in front of him.
Pulling out his phone, Ye Chuan took a look.
Claim the daily sunflower rewards.
It was still cash plus item rewards. However, since everyone's cultivation realm hadn't changed, it was the same old three types: pills, talismans, ores, etc.
"Hmm, nothing special today."
Ye Chuan took another look at the Adventure Worlds—
Tianxuan Continent, Aiser Continent, Bizarre World: Death Train...
"Hmm, I'll clear those one-time adventure worlds once I get a bit stronger."
Ignoring the others, Ye Chuan directly selected the Tianxuan Continent.
Whatever, just start!
...
...
After entering the Tianxuan Continent, Ye Chuan's appearance naturally remained that of a child. However, he didn't mind, proceeding as usual to wake up Hu Li.
The just-awakened Hu Li, upon seeing Ye Chuan, immediately perked up her fox ears. "You... are you the boss's son?!"
"It's me," Ye Chuan said, seeming somewhat resigned as he saw that even the little fox girl in front of him was taller than him now. "I practiced a cultivation technique yesterday, unfortunately suffered a deviation, and ended up like this."
To be precise, it was Lilith who had the deviation; storing up too much nearly blew up the whole world.
So the World-Ending Witch was actually a bomb.
"You're the boss?" Hu Li stared blankly at Ye Chuan for a good while before nodding woodenly. "Such a cute boss."
Hearing the word "cute" again, Ye Chuan twitched the corner of his mouth. "Never mind. Hu Li, come have breakfast with me."
"O-okay!"
But after thinking for a moment, Ye Chuan didn't feel like going out, so he said, "Go out and pack something to bring back for yourself."
"Understood, boss." Hu Li trotted out of the shop.
Watching the little fox girl run off, Ye Chuan went to the sofa in the shop and directly lay down in his usual spot.
"Feels like the sofa got bigger."
"Last night really wore me out." Ye Chuan touched his treasured golden tool. No matter what, stirring up those waves just wasn't powerful enough.
After a while, little Hu Li returned, having packed a serving of crystal shrimp dumplings for Ye Chuan.
"Mmm."
Perhaps because the ingredients were different, Ye Chuan quite liked the food here.
"Hu Li, open for business."
"Okay, boss, I'll go open the door!" Hu Li, holding a steamed bun in her mouth, trotted to the front to open up.
In fact, quite a few cultivators were already waiting outside the shop. After all, Ye Chuan's reputation was growing, and it was said he had attracted the attention of many major sects.
With a creak, the shop door slowly opened. The waiting cultivators outside instantly surged forward, clamoring, "Master! Please forge for us!"
Hu Li hurriedly stopped the crowd, saying crisply, "Everyone, don't rush! The boss is inside. Please come one at a time!"
Just then, two familiar figures squeezed out from the crowd. It was Xuanye and Xuan Yan from the Xuanyue Sect.
The moment they appeared, the crowd parted. Their faces were full of urgency, and they were just about to call out "Master" when their gaze swept over the sofa inside the shop and instantly froze.
On the sofa, a little boy who looked no more than five or six years old was sitting with his legs crossed, eating crystal shrimp dumplings with great relish.
The little boy wore oversized robes that made his frame appear even more petite. But that face, aside from being a bit more childish, looked exactly like the Master's!
Xuanye and Xuan Yan exchanged a glance.
Who was this? Could he be the Master's personal disciple? But the resemblance was too strong!
His son?
"Ahem... young friend, may I ask if the Master is in?" Xuanye stepped forward to ask, cupping his hands towards Ye Chuan as he spoke.
Ye Chuan swallowed the dumpling in his mouth, glanced up at them, and said flatly, "It's me. Fellow Daoist Xuanye, here for an enhancement?"
"You... you are the Master?!" Xuan Yan beside him exclaimed, his voice changing pitch. Seeing Ye Chuan's familiar demeanor, he seemed shocked. "But your... your appearance..."
The surrounding cultivators also erupted in chatter, looking at the boy-form Ye Chuan with disbelief.
Ye Chuan couldn't be bothered to explain. "Enhancement, crafting, or repair? Keep talking nonsense and I'll give you the special offer of doubling the price."
Although Xuanye and Xuan Yan were full of doubts, hearing Ye Chuan's utterly shameless remark left no room for doubt.
Hmm, it's him.
No one else has this flavor. You can't even act out that uniquely shameless aura Ye Chuan exudes.
Xuanye and Xuan Yan took out a treasure from their storage pouches.
The treasure was entirely translucent blue, shaped like a crescent moon.
"Master, this is our Xuanyue Sect's treasure, the 'Sinking Moon.' We heard you could repair high-grade treasures, so we've come specially to ask for your help in repairing and enhancing it," Xuanye said respectfully.
After all, Ye Chuan's name was now like thunder in the ears of the powers within Xuanjing City.
"Oh?" Ye Chuan glanced at it. "Sect treasure, huh? Ten million low-grade spirit stones."

+【Epic Battles!】 "Your Highness, they say Linxi Temple is miraculous. Won’t you make a wish?" "A wish? It should be making wishes to me." "That may be so, but since you’re already here..." "..." "Fine. Then grant this princess a consort to play with." "He must be obedient, devoted, and utterly infatuated with my body—so much so that he’d kneel and kiss my feet." "Your Highness, that’s not a consort. That’s a dog." "Then add clever, witty, heroic, ambitious yet pragmatic..." "Hmm, that’s enough for now. I’ll add more later."
