"Uh, yes." Xu Chen nodded.
"We also have the antidote, but you won't get it easily."
Xu Chen said solemnly, "Senior, please feel free to test me!"
"Smart!" Feng Xia clapped her hands, then skipped over to Long Hua's side and whispered something in his ear. Long Hua nodded repeatedly. The two of them decided on Xu Chen's next test.
"Little Qi Refiner, you may leave now. Your test will begin."
Before Xu Chen could react or ask what the test was, a fiery light flew towards him. After a dizzying spin, he found himself at the foot of the cave.
Longhua glanced at Xu Chen's condition and said helplessly, "Why did you burn his clothes?"
"This leaves a storage bag for people, doesn't it?" Feng Xia stuck out her little tongue.
Xu Chen, who was at the foot of the mountain, was dumbfounded. "Does that female senior have some kind of fetish?" he muttered as he took out his storage bag, put on a set of Tianquan Sect uniform, and carried the backpack that was placed in the small array at the foot of the mountain. He then walked back towards the return route.
Passing by Wang Hui and her daughter's small house, Xu Chen took out all the snacks from his backpack and went inside.
"Xiaorou, do you still recognize your brother?" Xu Chen asked the little girl softly. The little girl was doing her homework at the time. She looked up and saw a brother in ancient costume. She was startled and was about to call for her mother to help.
"Who are you?! Is it you?" Wang Hui recognized Xu Chen's appearance but wasn't sure if he was the same young man from a year ago.
“It’s me, big sister. A year ago, I escorted you home in the mountains. Do you remember?”
Wang Hui breathed a sigh of relief. "Young man, please sit down. I'll make you a cup of tea." Wang Hui turned and went into the kitchen, while Xu Chen brought the snacks to Xiao Rou's table.
"Xiaorou, this is a reward from your brother for doing your homework diligently," Xu Chen said with a serious expression, like an elementary school teacher.
"Big brother? Are you big brother?" When Xiao Rou saw the table full of candy and snacks, she thought of the big brother who gave her chocolate a year ago. The image in her memory overlapped, and the little girl recognized Xu Chen.
"Yes, did Xiaorou study hard when her older brother wasn't around?"
"Yes!" Xiaorou walked into her mother's bedroom and took out her perfect math test paper. Wang Hui was standing at the kitchen door. Seeing her daughter showing the test paper to Xu Chen, and Xu Chen squatting down to carefully examine it and praise Xiaorou, she couldn't control her emotions and hurriedly turned around and went into the kitchen. She didn't want her daughter and this kind young man to see her tears.
"Xiao Rou is such a good girl." Xu Chen patted the little girl's head, and then thought of something: how he could help the mother and daughter.
After hesitating for a while, Xu Chen helped Xiao Rou with her homework for a bit, declined Wang Hui's invitation to dinner, secretly put a wad of cash under Xiao Rou's schoolbag, and quietly left.
