The old man's voice was deep, no longer concealing the sharpness that seemed out of place with his ailing body.

"In all my years, I have never seen such miraculous medical skills."

"Who exactly are you? What is your purpose in getting close to our Xiao Ci?"

Before she finished speaking, her hand had already swiftly pulled a small glass test tube from under the pillow.

Inside the test tube was a viscous liquid that emitted an ominous, dark purple glow.

This is a forbidden drug she brought from the Silver Dimension!

It was bestowed upon her by the former head of the family; it was called Hellish Fantasy Essence.

Once consumed, one's strength will increase dramatically.

But all of this comes at a price.

It will shorten your lifespan!

If one's lifespan is insufficient, they will die suddenly.

Before coming to the Gold Dimension, Yehenara Siti had sent assassins to hunt them down, and she killed all of them using the Hell Fantasy Essence.

But this also shortened her lifespan by more than ten years; otherwise, she wouldn't be so old, nor would she have been bedridden for so many years.

Now, a stranger has come to our home, whose background we can't quite figure out.

Just in case, she must drink it to gain immense power.

She didn't care even if she died afterwards.

Because this is her life's duty.

We are willing to pay any price to protect the patriarch's only daughter!

A resolute glint flashed in her eyes as she prepared to uncork the bottle and drink it all in one gulp.

Lan Tianyu frowned slightly upon seeing this, and his fingers twitched almost imperceptibly.

The spell [Azure] is activated instantly.

The test tube containing the liquid vanished instantly, flying steadily into Lan Tianyu's palm.

The whole process was so fast that Xiao Ci didn't even see what happened.

【041】Having such a young master is truly a blessing for the Lan family!

"grandmother?"

Xiao Ci was stunned, not understanding why her grandmother suddenly acted this way.

"Grandpa, don't be nervous, I mean you no harm."

Lan Tianyu fiddled with the test tube in his hand, his tone calm.

"If I really wanted to do something, with my methods, do you think I would need to go through all this trouble?"

He put the test tube into his pocket.

Although I don't know what it is, with the super vision granted by the [Six Eyes], I can see that it contains extremely strong energy.

Once consumed, it will inevitably cause a surge in combat power.

Consider this payment for the treatment; you never know when you might need it.

This action caused the old woman's pupils to shrink sharply, but she dared not move again.

"Grandma, what are you doing!"

Xiao Ci realized what was happening and was both anxious and angry.

She quickly recounted how Lan Tianyu had rescued her when she was robbed by thugs and how he had promised to find her a job.

"The uncle is a good man. He just saved me and healed you. How can you treat him like this?"

The old woman listened to the young lady's story, looking at Lan Tianyu with complicated emotions, and then at the young lady who was on the verge of tears.

She was a shrewd and experienced woman, and she always felt that Lan Tianyu's appearance was too coincidental and that his motives were definitely not pure.

But you can't fight city hall; in the end, this world is ruled by force.

Lacking the power to overturn the table, one can only humble oneself and act subserviently.

The old woman sighed inwardly, forcing a weak smile onto her face.

"So that's how it is. I was delirious from my illness and worried about Xiao Ci, so I misunderstood my benefactor..."

"I'm so sorry, so sorry!"

"Thank you for saving my life, and thank you for helping my little Ci..."

She thanked him repeatedly, keeping a very humble posture, but the wariness and doubt deep in her eyes had not completely disappeared.

Lan Tianyu took in her reaction and knew that the old woman couldn't really believe him; she was just bowing down because of the situation.

Of course, he had no interest in explaining.

"It's alright, sir. You've just recovered and need to rest, so I won't disturb you."

Lan Tianyu didn't linger any longer and looked at Xiao Ci, saying...

"Tomorrow morning, when you arrive at the Lan Group, give me your name, Lan Tianyu, and someone will arrange everything."

After saying that, he stopped looking at the two people with complicated expressions and turned to leave.

The old woman stared in the direction he had disappeared, her eyes flickering, before finally letting out a heavy sigh.

Xiao Ci was immersed in the joy of her grandmother's recovery and the promising future, and did not notice anything unusual about her grandmother.

……

Tianhe Hospital.

Outside the ICU ward.

Lan Tianyu reappeared.

Lan Wenhua and several clan elders immediately surrounded them, their faces full of questions.

"Father, elders, I killed all those black-robed men who attacked the warehouse and injured our clansmen."

Lan Tianyu spoke concisely and to the point, without uttering any unnecessary words.

"Okay! Good job!"

Lan Wenhua slapped his son's shoulder hard, his face showing a ruthless relief. "Anyone who dares to touch a member of the Lan family deserves this fate!"

"The hidden danger has been resolved so quickly, young master is truly awesome!"

"Having such a young master is truly a blessing for the Lan family!"

The surrounding elders realized what was happening, and their faces lit up with excitement, with praise rising and falling in waves.

Lan Tianyu's swift and decisive actions and formidable combat power undoubtedly gave them a strong boost of confidence.

Lan Tianyu nodded slightly, accepting the praise.

Lan Wenhua looked at her son, her eyes filled with satisfaction:

"Go and get some rest. We're here watching over things, nothing will happen."

"Okay, then I'm leaving."

Lan Tianyu did not refuse and instantly left Tianhe Hospital.

……

apartment.

Lan Tianyu appeared in the bedroom silently.

Tian Xin didn't seem to be sleeping soundly. Sensing a familiar presence approaching, she murmured groggily:

"Tianyu, you're back?"

"Yeah, you're back. Everything's alright now. Go to sleep."

Lan Tianyu's voice carries a soothing gentleness.

He gently lifted the covers and lay down, pulling Tian Xinxiang's delicate body into his arms.

The soft, sweet fragrance unique to mature women instantly enveloped him, dispelling the hostility of the night.

Tian Xin snuggled against him, finding a comfortable position.

It let out a contented purr like a kitten, and soon fell into a deep sleep again.

Lan Tianyu held her close, feeling this rare tranquility and warmth, his tense nerves slowly relaxing.

He closed his eyes, his consciousness sinking into the system panel.

[Host: Lan Tianyu]

【Combat Power Index: 22790】

Number of fishing attempts: 0

[Luck: 18.89%]

[Template: Five Insights]

Occupation: Priest

[Abilities: Azure, Six-Eyed]

[Skills: Hall of Radiance LV10, Haste LV10, Angel's Blessing LV1, Healing LV1]

[Affection Level: Lancelot (Ultimate), Qian Laiye (Very High), Jin Baosan (Very High), Tian Xin (Ultimate), Wang Dadong (Very High), Wang Yase (Very High), Xiao Ci (High)]

Lan Tianyu did a quick mental calculation and found that the luck collection efficiency had reached 1500%.

Compared to the previous 950%, efficiency has increased by approximately 1.57 times!

"When we did the statistics before, it took about six days to collect enough luck."

"If we calculate it now, it will only take about four days to complete."

"Although some unpleasant things happened today, I still gained a lot."

Lan Tianyu sighed, feeling quite satisfied.

Of course, he actually knew that too.

I want to have achieved what I have today.

It's almost impossible without finding a new protagonist.

Even so, he will not be satisfied with the status quo.

He then opened the job panel and lowered [Hall of Radiance] to LV1 while raising [Blessing of Angels] to LV10.

After doing all this, I felt mentally and physically exhausted.

After all, he had been working for almost two hours.

He tightened his arms, gently rested his chin on Tian Xin's head, and drifted off to sleep.

The city outside the window is still bustling, but in this small space, there is only the peaceful breathing of each other.

The next day.

Today is Saturday, so there are no classes at school.

The two slept until noon.

Lan Tianyu opened his eyes and saw Tian Xin's peaceful sleeping face.

He couldn't resist placing a light kiss on her smooth forehead.

Tian Xin's long eyelashes trembled a few times before she slowly opened her eyes.

Meeting his smiling eyes, two blushes instantly rose on her pretty face, and she shyly buried her face in his chest.
