"Treat to dinner?"
Zhou Haoyu raised an eyebrow, they had only t twice in total, barely even acquaintances.
Offering kindness for no reason, either treachery or theft!
"Tell what it is you want first, and then I'll consider whether I have ti." Zhou Haoyu said directly.
"Uh…"
On the other end, Mu Ye was instantly choked, it was his first ti being spoken to in such a blunt manner without any beating around the bush.
He was montarily unaccustod.
Mu Ye could only speak honestly, "I wanted to ask you to look after my younger sister."
Mu Nu Jiao had successfully stood out in the nomination battle, and with the full backing of the Mui Family, had beco one of the official mbers of the National Team.
This year's National Team had a very good chance of winning the championship — especially with Zhou Haoyu leading the team.
Once they won the World Tournant, the Mui Family would naturally receive plenty of resources, and attract many young mages to join.
However, while Mu Nu Jiao had obtained her official slot, there was still the risk of being kicked out.
As her older brother, Mu Ye naturally didn't want to see Mu Nu Jiao removed.
Zhou Haoyu very quickly understood Mu Ye's intentions, replying calmly, "As captain, I naturally will take care of every team mber."
"Brother Zhou, no need to be so distant. I know you and my sister are renting together — who knows, in the future we might all beco one family." Mu Ye laughed.
The Zhou Family was currently thriving and no weaker than the Mui Family.
Zhou Haoyu possessed incredible talent, and with the high prestige he'd earned in the Ancient Capital, his future was limitless.
Mu Ye would be more than happy to have such a promising brother-in-law.
"One family?"
Zhou Haoyu showed a surprised look — did Mu Ye seriously not know he already had a woman?
The Mu Family had been kicked out by the Mu Clan and had already joined the Zhou Family — this was public knowledge.
He had underestimated Mu Ye's shalessness — this man was undoubtedly a dandy young master.
However, this might be an opportunity.
Zhou Haoyu didn't plan to give up on Mu Nu Jiao's treasure chest.
If he wanted to beco the Mu Family's son-in-law, the simplest and most straightforward way was to bring the Mui Family enough benefit.
"Forget the dinner — as for what you said, I'll give it so thought." Zhou Haoyu said.
"Uh — actually, one more thing, my grandfather wants to cooperate with your Zhou Family," Mu Ye added.
"This sort of things, don't ask . I'm not interested in dealing with that."
Magic City.
"Brother Haoyu, my Shadow Elent Nebula broke through to Level 2!" Liu Ru excitedly clung to Zhou Haoyu's arm.
"I actually cultivated to Level 3!" Liu Xian couldn't believe her face.
In only seven days she had jumped from Beginner Level 1 all the way to Beginner Level 3.
Thanks entirely to the Earth Holy Spring.
Several months earlier, Zhou Haoyu had taken Liu Xian to the Magic Association to awaken — she had succeeded in awakening the Water Elent.
While Water wasn't a rare elent, it was still very useful across early, mid, and late stages.
"Brother Haoyu, just what treasure is this — it's unbelievable." Liu Ru lifted her eyes to ask.
Zhou Haoyu pinched Liu Ru's cheek and didn't bother to explain.
He had only diluted a single drop of the Earth Holy Spring, yet it had delivered terrifying results.
Which showed how diluted the Bo City Fountain had beco.
He still had around seven or eight drops left — enough to cultivate his Space Elent to High Tier Perfect.
"Right — this is for you."
Zhou Haoyu took out the Dark Matter he'd obtained from a treasure chest and explained, "Absorb it — it's useful to you."
Dark Matter — Shadow Fiend. Zhou Haoyu didn't know its exact effect, but it shouldn't be weak.
Liu Ru suddenly kissed Zhou Haoyu on the cheek, then ran back to her room, face red.
Leaving Zhou Haoyu staring speechlessly at Liu Xian.
Liu Xian's eyes dodged — she didn't dare et his. "Brother Haoyu, thank you for helping us — I really don't know how to repay you."
"Since you sisters have already joined our family, as Young Master I naturally must take good care of you." Zhou Haoyu said.
Of course, this was just politeness.
The Zhou Family wasn't as big as the Mu Clan, but it still had many mbers — Zhou Haoyu couldn't treat everyone equally.
Toward Liu Ru and Liu Xian, he was more like cultivating loyal aides — essentially personal secretaries.
Since the Zhou Family's industries in the Imperial Capital had shrunk, Zhou Haoyu planned to build a new city in the future.
By then, there would surely be countless affairs to handle.
As the saying goes: when there's work, the secretary does it — when there's no work…
"Brother Haoyu, is your shoulder sore? Should I give you a massage?" Liu Xian offered.
Compared to her younger sister's innocence, Liu Xian felt she owed Zhou Haoyu far more.
Debts she could never repay.
Before Zhou Haoyu could answer, Liu Xian had already moved behind him and begun massaging.
Her technique was a little clumsy, but overall it felt quite decent.
After finishing the shoulder massage, Liu Xian shifted her position again, half–kneeling in front of the sofa as she began massaging his thigh.
At first everything seed normal, but very quickly Zhou Haoyu sensed sothing was wrong.
Those soft and slightly cool fingers were gradually creeping upward.
Before long, Zhou Haoyu suddenly widened his eyes and looked at Liu Xian.
At this mont Liu Xian was already stamring, unable to speak.
Zhou Haoyu had not expected Liu Xian would actually be willing to go this far, far beyond what he had imagined.
After so ti, Liu Xian coughed twice, her cheeks crimson, keeping her head lowered and not daring to et Zhou Haoyu's gaze.
Just then Liu Ru ca out from her room, and upon seeing her sister's inexplicably red face, imdiately asked:
"Jie, why are you blushing?"
Liu Xian didn't know how to explain — fortunately Zhou Haoyu reacted quickly.
"Your sister was helping massage and pound my back just now."
"Massage?"
Liu Ru looked puzzled — was that really sothing to blush like this over?
Suddenly she noticed a little sar at the corner of Liu Xian's mouth, frowning as she asked, "Jie, did you drink sothing?"
Liu Ru already faintly had so guesses, but didn't dare believe them.
Her sister wouldn't eat secretly behind her back, would she?
"Ahem — Liu Ru, you should already have absorbed that Dark Matter. Did it give you any special effect?"
Zhou Haoyu shifted the topic.
Liu Ru stared between Zhou Haoyu and Liu Xian for a mont before finally opening her mouth: "It gave a new ability — I can control shadows to attack."
"Control shadows?"
Zhou Haoyu raised his brow — that sounded extraordinary, but it was rather broad, so the exact effects weren't clear.
"Control your own shadow, or control soone else's shadow?"
"Both. The shadow's strength is similar to the main body — it just consus quite a lot of mana."
Hearing that, Zhou Haoyu was instantly shocked — this was basically a divine ability.
With this skill, Liu Ru might very well beco the world's number one Shadow Mage in the future.
He had originally intended to give her the Blood Ancestor Origin Blood, but now it seed unnecessary.
