"Hanmo, take these Spirit Stones," Luo Shu handed one third of the remaining Spirit Stones to Lu Hanmo, planning to split the rest between herself and her family.
"Okay!" Lu Hanmo accepted the Spirit Stones. There was no need for courtesy between him and Shushu. Likewise, if he had been the one with the Spirit Stones, he would have given them to her without hesitation.
After Lu Hanmo stored the Spirit Stones, Luo Shu said, "Let’s cultivate in the Spiritual Spring." Now that she had so many Spirit Stones, she felt even more confident about cultivating.
Lu Hanmo smiled and nodded. "I’ll set up a Spirit Gathering Array first." His rapid progression was not just due to his aptitude, but also greatly attributed to the Spirit Gathering Array.
"Okay!" Luo Shu replied with a smile.
Lu Hanmo took out the Spirit Stones given to him by Luo Shu and rapidly began to set them up around them.
As the Spirit Gathering Array finished setting up, Luo Shu immediately felt the surrounding Spiritual Energy intensify by several times, and she looked at Lu Hanmo with pride beaming on her face.
"It’s ready," Lu Hanmo said as he walked over, took Luo Shu’s hand, and together they headed towards the Spiritual Spring.
Yun Han paused outside Luo Shu’s room, looking at it for a long time before slowly heading to his own room.
"Shushu, I’ve advanced!" Lu Hanmo looked at Luo Shu excitedly. After one night of cultivating with the Spiritual Spring and Spirit Stones, his Cultivation had leaped from the Qi Refining Mid-Late Stage to the Mid Foundation Establishment. Such a surge in progress was beyond his expectations.
"I’ve also advanced to the Foundation Establishment Mid-Late Stage," Luo Shu said joyfully. Cultivating with the Spirit Gathering Array indeed made a difference; she had advanced a level in just one night.
"That’s wonderful!" Lu Hanmo happily embraced Luo Shu, sharing the joy together.
Yun Han set the breakfast on the table, wondering whether to call Luo Shu and the others down for breakfast.
Reaching the foot of the stairs, he turned back to the dining room, sitting there silently watching the outside.
After the previous night, his memory had mostly recovered. He had sustained such severe injuries this time because he had discovered a treasure near Jinchen. When he found the treasure, an elder with Golden Core Cultivation suddenly appeared and began to fight him for it.
With only Late Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivation, he naturally couldn’t match the elder. The other party was bent on not letting him escape, intent on killing him. In the end, he had to use an Escape Talisman to flee.
He had been unconscious for several days and when he awoke, he couldn’t remember anything. All he could do was think, and think, until his thoughts became muddled and his mind went completely blank.
If it weren’t for meeting Luo Shu, his only fate would have been waiting for death. Even if someone took pity on him and sent him to a hospital, the doctors would have been helpless with his injuries.
Hearing footsteps, Yun Han looked up to see Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo sweetly walking hand in hand down the stairs.
Suppressing a faint sourness in his heart, he turned his head away.
"Yun Han, how are you feeling now?" Luo Shu approached Yun Han and asked.
"Much better," Yun Han nodded to Luo Shu.
"Have you remembered anything?" Luo Shu scrutinized Yun Han closely, noticing that his complexion was still somewhat pale.
Yun Han wanted to say that he had remembered, but the words choked in his throat and he swallowed them down, shaking his head instead. If he admitted his memory had returned, he would inevitably have to leave. He didn’t want to leave, so he had to lie.
Luo Shu handed him a cup of Spiritual Spring, "Don’t worry, take your time." But his injuries were indeed a cause for her concern.
"Mm!" Yun Han nodded, took the Spiritual Spring, and drank it in one gulp. He could tell that their relationship was good, and he didn’t want to destroy it. He stayed here only wanting to accompany her a little longer. When he had convinced himself to let go, he would leave. As for his injuries, now that his memory had recovered, such wounds naturally wouldn’t trouble him.
"I’ve made breakfast; you two go and eat," Yun Han gestured towards the table filled with dim sum.
"Sure!" Luo Shu smiled, nodding, and walked towards the dining table.
Lu Hanmo watched Yun Han thoughtfully, then followed Luo Shu’s steps. Fortunately, Shushu had decided to live at school; otherwise, he really wouldn’t be at ease with her and Yun Han together every day. He wasn’t worried about Shushu being fickle, because he trusted her, but he didn’t trust Yun Han. This man felt too dangerous to him.
"Yun Han, Hanmo and I are going to the school later; will you be okay at home by yourself?" Luo Shu put down her chopsticks and turned to ask Yun Han.
Yun Han thought for a moment, pursed his lips, and gazed at Luo Shu with hope, "Can I go with you? Maybe seeing more of the outside will help me remember."
Lu Hanmo frowned slightly. His instincts told him that this man definitely had intentions towards Shushu. No, he must get Shushu away from him quickly.
Luo Shu looked at Lu Hanmo; he nodded, "That’s fine, too!"
"Luo Shu, are you home?" Yang Mujing’s voice came from outside.
Luo Shu stood up and walked towards the outside.
Lu Hanmo looked at Yun Han and warned in a stern voice, "I don’t care who you are, I hope you’ll keep your distance from Shushu." If it were just friendship, he naturally wouldn’t stop it. But this man was clearly not just a friend; there was a hint of affection in his eyes when he looked at Shushu.
Yun Han’s lips curled into a smile, "Are you afraid of losing to me?" Lu Hanmo also gave him a complex feeling, a man with sharp instincts and insight.
"I believe in Shushu," Lu Hanmo said, picking up a glass of soy milk and taking a sip, confidence spreading across his resolute face.
Footsteps came from outside, and Luo Shu walked in side by side with Yang Mujing.
Seeing Yang Mujing following close to Luo Shu, Lu Hanmo couldn’t help but smile bitterly to himself. His Shushu was indeed too attractive; one suitor hadn’t been dealt with when another appeared.
Noticing Lu Hanmo and Yun Han seated at the dining table, Yang Mujing was taken aback, "Who are they?" He had thought Luo Shu lived alone, but unexpectedly, there were two men in the house. He wondered what their relationship with Luo Shu was.
"Lu Hanmo, Yun Han, this is my neighbor, Yang Mujing," Luo Shu introduced them.
"Young Master Lu! I never thought I’d have the honor to meet you here," Yang Mujing said with an excited and admiring look at Lu Hanmo. In Jinchen’s elite circle, there was no one who didn’t know Lu Hanmo. He had always admired Lu Hanmo, who, unlike Yan Lixing and Song Xiran, rarely attended social events. He was elusive.
