I'm Home

Chen Xi, who had a great figure, displayed her explosive battling powers.

After killing that man with a single punch, she stood there and scanned the group of men in black coldly. "Who else is there?"

The men in black were stunned for a while.

One of the men in black said, "She's already exhausted. Let's kill her."

"…" Chen Xi was speechless.

She had been exposed.

This was very awkward.

Chen Xi was a bit frustrated. Just now, she exhausted too much of her energy for that attack. Her entire body ached, and even escaping seemed tiring… Hope that this group of men can soften their blows?

Boom!

One of the men in black, who charged the quickest, dashed over with a fist. Chen Xi raised and crossed her arms in front of her, yet she flew back from the punch. The man in black was stunned. Are you so resistant?

Later, a few men in black surrounded her simultaneously.

That's it.

She's going to die.

Chen Xi looked at the direction of the bar. She had just found a place where she could return. There was still someone waiting for her. Did she have to end things here?

How unwilling.

At this moment, a cane fell from the sky.

It stabbed the ground in front of Chen Xi with a "ching" sound.

The cane was like a sword and stood upright on the ground.

Chen Xi was in a bit of a trance.

She remembered that her boss had a cane. Did her boss sense that she was in danger and come to rescue her? No… Her boss was just an ordinary human. How could he have such a cool entrance? Chen Xi stared at it. Indeed, the cane was different from the cane that her boss usually held.

Her boss's cane had a light blue gem with a restrained glow at the top of the cane.

However, at the top of this cane, there were intertwined heads of a silver dragon snake.

The sudden appearance of the dragon snake cane caused the men in black to retreat in fear. They immediately started running away…

"Ha. Why are you running?"

A gust of cool wind suddenly blew in the Qing Ren Alley, blowing up a few fallen autumn leaves. They fluttered and started attacking in the direction of the men's escape. The speed of the falling leaves was evidently not fast, but it flew to the men's side quickly.

The fallen leaves drifted past.

The men in black stumbled and dashed forward for a few steps before falling straight onto the ground. Their blood, which was so red that it seemed almost black, spread out slowly below their bodies.

The five remaining men in black died immediately.

Chen Xi let out a breath.

It looked like she did not have to die today.

After the men in black died, Lu Xingshen, who was wearing a presentable suit, walked out from the shadows. He nodded and smiled at Chen Xi. "Are you okay?"

She was not okay at all. Her entire body was in huge pain.

However, Chen Xi crawled up from the ground and thanked Old Lu calmly. "Thank you."

Old Lu said smilingly, "You are welcome. Was I impressive just now?"

"Impressive."

Chen Xi walked towards the bag of things that she had bought earlier. Old Lu's smile deepened. "Then do you want to learn it?"

"No."

Chen Xi carried her items and felt that it was a bit challenging. However, she still walked to the outside of the Qing Ren Alley with difficult steps. The smile on Lu Xingshen's face froze. He walked to Chen Xi's side and said, "Why don't you want to learn even though I'm so impressive? I'll tell you that I have even more amazing techniques… Why don't you learn and see?"

"There's no need. Thank you."

Chen Xi walked while carrying her stuff. She was not very bothered by Old Lu, who kept bothering her.

Old Lu became anxious.

He started turning around Chen Xi.

He was like a salesperson from many years ago… He was almost excessively passionate. However, Chen Xi's face was constantly calm. She even seemed dead.

"If you learn my skills, you can go anywhere under the sky!" said Old Lu proudly.

Chen Xi shook her head.

She did not want to go anywhere under the sky.

It was good enough to have a safe, warm place.

"Girl, don't you desire power?"

No.

Actually, girls desire breasts… But I have them already.

Chen Xi lowered her head and looked.

She was a bit proud.

She was not bragging. If she were to compare breasts… she did not intend to target anyone, but everyone else was trash.

"Wealth, power, and reputation!" Old Lu still did not give up.

She had all of those before.

She laughed.

Her gaze was full of exhaustion after all desires had been satisfied—this was probably the so-called 'high-class' look.

Old Lu became really anxious.

Why can't anything reach you, girl?

After turning the corner of the road, Chen Xi saw the Lost Bar.

At the bar entrance, Li Yao sat on the steps and was counting the stars in the night sky listlessly. There was a huge problem with the air quality in the provincial city. He could not see many stars at night. The neon lights around him shone on Li Yao's body, making him look a bit pathetic.

Chen Xi laughed happily.

Her entire self immediately became lively and bright. Old Lu saw this and was in a trance—this beauty that bloomed in layers would cause even an old man like him, who had been accustomed to the world, to be stunned.

Chen Xi bowed down to Old Lu and said, "Mr. Old Man, I'm home."

She stressed the word "Home".

Old Lu asked, "What?"

He looked at his surroundings and realized that he had also returned to the entrance of the late-night bar.

No wonder the journey with her was so smooth.

He was going in the same direction… No!

He was right beside, okay?

Then, Old Lu stared as Chen Xi walked to the entrance of the Lost Bar.

Chen Xi said, "Boss, I'm back. You must have waited for long."

When Li Yao saw Chen Xi, he stood up. "Yeah, I wanted for a long time. Why are you so late… You're hurt? I'll carry them for you!"

They started busying around at the entrance.

Old Lu looked and was in a trance.

Their busy appearance made them look like a young couple who had gotten home after a day of work and were consoling each other for their hard work. Then, they would open the door and go home together. The atmosphere between the two was so harmonious and natural… Once upon a time, there was a girl who would treat him so gently as well.

He tightened his scarf around himself in the cold winter night.

When Old Lu arrived home, he sat by the stove and ate hotpot. The rising heat wrapped itself around the warm, yellow light, making everything seem blurred.

"Damn it!"

Old Lu cursed.

He could not forget that incident from so many years ago… He tightened his grip on his dragon snake cane, turned around, and returned to the late-night bar.

Anyway, she was right beside him.

Let's take it slow.

…

At the lost bar, Li Yao went to the back of the bar table, made a fake gesture, and took out the Vitality Elixir from his space ring… He thought about it again and changed the Vitality Elixir to a Healing Potion. He stood up from the bar table, retrieved a clean wine glass, poured the healing potion in, and passed it to Chen Xi. "Drink this."

The healing potion had a thick jade-green color.

It looked…

A bit disgusting.

It still had that thick and pungent smell of chameleon plants.

The taste of the detoxification medicine and the Vitality Elixir had been improved by Li Yao. Hence, they tasted good. However, the refinement process for the healing potion was even more complicated. Li Yao was still in the midst of analyzing it. Presently, he could only produce the original version… the strong-tasting healing potion.

Hence, Chen Xi was in a tough spot.

What was this?

Why did she want to vomit when she smelled it?

Li Yao said embarrassedly, "This… Although it smells bad, when you drink it… it tastes even worse. But it's good for your injury… Trust me."

Okay.

I trust you.

She accepted the healing potion and drank it in one gulp!
