This spirit stone was the biggest and the best.

However, only half of it was left after Qiao Yanjue held it.

Such a speed of absorption gave Xia Xibei mixed feelings.

It was not an illusion, Qiao Yanjue’s talent was really exceptionally strong!

Even if he missed the best period of cultivation, the strength he showed was much stronger than others.

“What’s wrong?”

Looking at Xia Xibei’s strange expression, Qiao Yanjue got anxious and threw the spirit stone away, hugging her and looking her up and down.

“What’s wrong? Are you okay?”

Xia Xibei nestled in his arms, shaking her head and sighing, “What if you bully me in the future?”

“I bully you?”

Qiao Yanjue pointed to his nose, his face full of incredulity.

“Yeah,” Xia Xibei nodded. “If you bully me, how can I fight back?”

Qiao Yanjue sighed and exposed his back, which had a number of scratches. “Come on, do you see this?”

Xia Xibei choked, annoyed, and slapped his back.

“Shut up!”

Qiao Yanjue laughed and held her in his arms, “Don’t worry! If I dare to bully you, you can bully me back!”

Xia Xibei glared at him and got out of his arms, “Humph!”

Looking at her arrogant appearance, Qiao Yanjue felt comfortable.

It wasn’t that he didn’t like Xia Xibei’s strength.

If he didn’t like her strength, he wouldn’t have liked her in the first place.

It was just that sometimes, Xia Xibei was so powerful and strong that he felt useless.

Now, he could feel the changes in his body and had a vague idea in his mind.

He would soon be stronger than Xia Xibei, and then he could protect her.

Moreover, he was happy to see this arrogant reaction of hers.

After a day and a night of activity, with just the spirit stones to renew their energy, the two of them were starving.

Qiao Yanjue got up and went to the kitchen to prepare food.

Only after the two of them finished eating did they go to see Liu Manhong.

They still had half a spirit stone left in their hands, so they were not in a hurry to use it up.

Even if this half-sized spirit stone was found, there was no need to worry.

After all, this spirit stone was now totally different from the stone they had stolen before.

Even if the Lu family wanted to settle the score, they wouldn’t find a shred of evidence.

After putting the spirit stone away, the two of them went to Liu Manhong’s house in high spirits.

Right after knocking on the door, the door opened, and inside was a man wearing an apron and holding a spatula.

“You’re here.”

Lu Xiaohang smiled as he looked at the handsome guy and beautiful girl in front of him, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

In just two days, the two of them seem to have changed a lot!

He speculated to himself but did not ask questions.

Looking at how Lu Xiaohang was dressed, Xia Xibei and Qiao Yanjue couldn’t help but glance at each other, their eyes full of surprise.

He was really here? And what was he wearing?

“I’m cooking for Hong Hong,” Lu Xiaohang shook the spatula he was holding.

Hong Hong?!

Xia Xibei and Qiao Yanjue looked at each other.

Wouldn’t Sister Hong be upset at being called by this name?

Lu Xiaohang welcomed them in, “Sit down. What do you want to drink?”

Xia Xibei and Qiao Yanjue were even more surprised.

How long had it been? How come he looked like the host here?

Where were the health aides and nannies?

Xia Xibei couldn’t help but look around, but didn’t see anyone else in sight.

“I told them to go take a break and come back later.”

Lu Xiaohang answered without their asking.

The corners of Xia Xibei and Qiao Yanjue’s mouths twitched as they looked at him in admiration.

This guy was too powerful!

In just two days, he had entered the house and become the host?

Incredible!
