In Li Yun's old-style house, there was only one bathroom, and it wasn't an ensuite.
Next to the toilet was the showerhead for bathing.
After Xu Mu came in, Li Yun immediately widened her eyes and almost instinctively turned around.
However, she didn't drive Xu Mu out. After what happened between her and Xu Mu last time, she had been thinking about it almost every day.
Xu Mu didn't stand on ceremony and walked straight over to start his practice.
After all, if he wanted her to become an ancient martial artist, how could she make progress without practicing?
Li Yun also began to show increasing affection for him. It was a pity that Xu Mu's double - effect card had already expired.
"Mom! I'm back!"
Just then, Zhao Yingying's voice came from outside.
Li Yun suddenly felt her legs go weak and almost sat on the ground. She looked back at Xu Mu, her voice trembling. "What should we do?"
"It's okay."
Xu Mu whispered.
"Mom! I seem to have seen Brother Mu's car! Is he at home?"
Zhao Yingying threw her backpack on the sofa and walked towards the kitchen, but didn't find Li Yun.
Then she came to the bathroom. Hearing the sound of the shower, she said with a smile, "Why are you taking a shower at this time?"
"Oh, it was so hot this afternoon that I sweated a lot. You sit on the sofa for a while first. Xiao Mu may come soon."
Li Yun said from inside.
"I feel that your voice sounds strange. What are you doing?"
Zhao Yingying directly opened the door.
"You... Why did you come in?"
Li Yun was so shocked that she covered her body, and her face instantly turned red. She didn't expect this kind of thing to be exposed.
"Can't I pee? Why are you being so stand - offish with me?"
Zhao Yingying said with a smile. "I thought there was someone else here. You're so young and beautiful. There must be a lot of people chasing you."
"Ah?"
Li Yun was completely stunned. She looked back and found that there was no one behind her.
There were only her and Zhao Yingying in the bathroom.
However, she could still feel that Xu Mu was still in the house. Then he left the house and then came back again.
Li Yun felt that her head was about to explode.
However, after thinking carefully, when communicating with some big businessmen recently, she learned from them about the power of ancient martial artists.
In the eyes of ordinary people, they were like gods and it was reasonable for them to be able to turn invisible.
Zhao Yingying sat on the toilet and looked at Li Yun with a smile. "What's wrong? Is it really that hot today?"
"No... It's okay. Maybe I've been too tired these days and have a bit of a fever."
Li Yun waved her hand at Zhao Yingying. "You go out first. Don't let Xiao Mu wait for too long."
"What are you afraid of? Brother Mu is one of our own. Let him wait a little while."
Zhao Yingying took out a tissue to wipe herself and then came to Li Yun smiling. "Let me scrub your back."
"No, I'll just take a quick shower. Go and check on the pot."
Li Yun felt like dying at this moment.
"Okay!"
Zhao Yingying washed her hands there and then left, closing the door behind her.
Li Yun finally let out a sigh of relief, but the next moment, her nerves tensed up again.
...
Xu Mu released his shadow from a small window high up and then disappeared from there.
Li Yun also took a quick shower. "This troublesome guy."
Zhao Yingying was in the kitchen. When she heard the knock on the door, she quickly walked over.
When she opened the door, she looked extremely surprised. "Brother Mu!"
[Affection + 20]
"Yingying, I came to see you guys."
Xu Mu said with a smile.
"Come in quickly."
Zhao Yingying pulled Xu Mu's hand and led him into the house. "Brother Mu, wait a moment. My mom is taking a shower."
"Okay."
Xu Mu nodded as he sat on the sofa.
A little while later, Li Yun walked out of the bathroom. She didn't even dare to look at Xu Mu.
[Affection + 20]
"Xiao Mu, you're here."
"Yes, I came to see you all."
Xu Mu nodded with a smile.
"Yingying, you talk to Xiao Mu for a while. I'll go and prepare the meals."
Li Yun said to Zhao Yingying.
"Okay."
Zhao Yingying agreed with a smile. She looked at Li Yun's back and asked curiously, "Mom, what's wrong with your legs?"
"It's okay. I've walked too much recently."
Li Yun gave Xu Mu a sideways glance.
She had never imagined that Xu Mu could be so powerful. Who could sprint from start to finish in a three - thousand - meter race?
A few simple dishes were placed on the table. Xu Mu sat there chatting with the two of them.
From Zhao Yingying, he learned that she had met Ye Yubaiyi at school.
The three of them had even had a meal together.
Xu Mu also told them the purpose of his visit and then took out the pills.
"One of them is for cleansing the marrow and purging the bones. Take this one first and then use the other one later."
Xu Mu simply introduced them. "I'm giving you these pills so that you can protect yourselves. In the future, when facing bad guys, you won't be completely helpless."
[Affection + 20]
"Thank you, Brother Mu!"
Zhao Yingying said excitedly.
Li Yun also had a big smile on her face.
[Affection + 20]
After having a simple meal here, Xu Mu said goodbye and left.
Sitting in the car, he also let out a sigh of relief. This was the first time he had experienced such a thing.
He didn't expect the invisibility barrier to have such a use. Especially when he was with Li Yun, he even saw Zhao Yingying.
This scene was different from what he perceived through his senses. This was really seeing with his own eyes.
Looking at the sky, it was still early. So he drove to Lu Xueyao's house.
Anyway, her house wasn't far from here. For Lu Xueyao, he had a different way of training her.
He could give her some powerful pills and help her reach the stage of Gang Qi or even stronger.
Xu Mu first came to Lu Xueyao's house. Through his senses, he found that Lu Xueyao wasn't there.
Only her grandma, Wang Xiuzhen, was at home watching TV.
However, through his senses, he found that Wang Xiuzhen's house had obviously been renovated again.
The original small TV had now been replaced by a big one.
He walked over and knocked on the door. Soon, Wang Xiuzhen opened the door.
When she saw it was Xu Mu, she was very surprised. "Is it Xiao Xu?"
"Grandma, I'm here to find Xueyao."
Xu Mu showed a smile.
"Xueyao? She goes to work at a KTV at night recently. Thanks to you for getting her that job. This child is very filial. She renovated the house and said she wants to save money to buy me a big house."
Wang Xiuzhen said gratefully.
Xu Mu nodded slightly. She must have said that on purpose to prevent her grandma from worrying.
"Grandma, which KTV is she working at? I own quite a few entertainment venues."
He didn't expose Lu Xueyao's lie and didn't plan to call her directly.
People's personalities would change with their status.
He definitely had to observe Lu Xueyao's current state secretly. If she became complacent because of getting power, he definitely wouldn't help her improve further.
"You're really promising at such a young age, Xiao Xu."
Wang Xiuzhen said with a smile. "She's working at the Dynasty KTV at the end of this road."
Xu Mu nodded.
After saying goodbye to Wang Xiuzhen, he drove non - stop to the destination.
When he arrived there, he used his senses to cover all the KTVs in front of him.
But he didn't see Lu Xueyao. Obviously, she wasn't here. However, on the lawn outside the KTV, he saw several men forcibly dragging a woman.
The woman was clearly drunk, but still had some sense, yet she was unable to deal with those men.
"What's going on?"
Xu Mu walked over and asked, "What are you guys doing?"
"This woman is my girlfriend. It's none of your business!"
One of the men, a crew - cut tattooed guy in a vest, shouted coldly.
"Brother Ma, this guy seems to be the young master of the Xu Group," a young man beside the tattooed guy whispered.
"I'm Sister Lu's man. The young master is nothing! Sister Lu can make him disappear!"
This tattooed guy sneered. He pointed at Xu Mu and said, "Get out of my sight in three seconds, or I'll cripple you!"

Su Bai smirked—cash was the one thing he’d never run out of. Years later, when people traced the rise of the AI prodigy beauty, who was the man behind her success?

u Chenyuan transmigrated into a female-oriented novel about a real and fake heiress, becoming the CEO elder brother of both. Unfortunately, the entire Lu family—including himself, the CEO—were mere cannon fodder in the story. Determined to save himself, Lu Chenyuan took action. The spoiled, attention-seeking fake heiress? Thrown into the harsh realities of the working class to learn humility. The love-struck real heiress? Pushed toward academic excellence, so lofty goals would blind her to trivial romances. As for the betrayed, vengeful arranged marriage wife… the plot hadn’t even begun yet. There was still time—if he couldn’t handle her, he could at least avoid her. "CEO Lu, are you avoiding me?" Mo Qingli fixed her gaze on Lu Chenyuan. For the first time, the shrewd and calculating Lu Chenyuan felt a flicker of unease.
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
