One person: Starting with the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, his grandmaster uncle emerges from seclusion.

As if changing his expression, the wronged look on Zhang Chulan's face vanished instantly.

Instead, it became a kind of nauseatingly sycophantic, heartfelt, and extremely obsequious...

A radiant smile.

"Master!"

This cry was so poignant and heartfelt, it moved all who heard it to tears.

Zhang Chulan did not stand up.

He used his knees as a fulcrum to perform a difficult "knee slide" on the smooth floor.

With a "whoosh," he slid to Zhang Tianyi's side.

Tiger Crouching Pose!

Then, under the watchful gaze of the old Celestial Master's twitching eyes.

Without hesitation, Zhang Chulan stretched out his hands and hugged Zhang Tianyi's thigh tightly, like an octopus.

This is a classic case of sucking up to someone powerful.

"Second Master! Waaah! My family!!"

Zhang Chulan buried his face in Zhang Tianyi's ripped jeans and howled loudly:

"Chu Lan has suffered terribly! For the past ten years or so, Chu Lan has lived a life worse than that of a pig or a dog!"

"I've missed you so much! I never knew I had such a wise, handsome, and powerful advisor in this world!"

"Why did it take you so long to come out! If you had come out earlier, would I have been bullied like that? Waaah..."

While crying, Zhang Chulan secretly rubbed his snot- and tear-covered face against Zhang Tianyi's expensive limited-edition sneakers.

The movements were fluid and effortless, without the slightest psychological burden.

What dignity?

What face?

Compared to such a thick thigh, that's nothing!

This is a top-tier big shot who can stand on equal footing with the Old Celestial Master, and is even younger, more domineering, and more protective of his own!

Moreover, this second master seems different from the old master who always puts on airs and talks about "unspeakable things".

This second advisor... he's got some serious connections!

That skull hoodie, those ripped jeans, those sunglasses... this guy is definitely one of us!

"Hey! Let go! Let go!"

Zhang Tianyi was caught off guard by this sudden enthusiasm, and spilled a few drops of tea from his hand.

He nudged Zhang Chulan's forehead with his toe in disgust:

"Snot! Snot got on my shoes! These shoes cost over 30,000 yuan! They're a limited edition worldwide!"

"Pay up! Your grandson will pay you back!"

Zhang Chulan refused to let go, raising his head, his face streaked with tears, yet he smiled like a flower:

"Don't even mention 30,000, as long as you're happy, I'd sell myself to buy you shoes!"

"Master, your legs are really strong! Those muscle lines, that's what you call powerful beauty! And those pants, they're so stylish! They're practically tailor-made for you!"

"It's only because you, Master, have the charisma to pull it off. If it were one of these young heartthrobs these days, they'd look like beggars!"

Zhang Zhiwei, who was standing to the side, couldn't bear to watch any longer. He covered his face with his hands, feeling that the grandfather and grandson had completely disgraced Longhushan.

"Chu Lan, stand up and speak."

Zhang Zhiwei said helplessly, "What kind of behavior is this, a grown man of seven feet tall?"

"I do not!"

Zhang Chulan retorted confidently to the old master, "I'm going to stay by Second Master's side! I feel safe here! It feels like home!"

As he spoke, he scooted closer, looking at Zhang Tianyi with adoration:

"Master, you just said you'd tear a hole in the sky and patch it up for me, is that true?"

Looking at the shameless thing at his feet, Zhang Tianyi originally wanted to kick it away, but he couldn't bring himself to do it.

He laughed.

This kid is interesting.

Zhang Huaiyi, that taciturn fellow, though full of wicked schemes, had to put on the facade of a virtuous gentleman.

But this grandson...

That's like wearing your badness and cowardice on your face, and being bad in a frank way and cowardly in a sincere way.

This is what they call... shameless.

But it must be said that this kind of personality is what allows one to survive the longest in this cannibalistic world of superhumans.

"Alright, stop flattering me, I only fall for that... well, it does sound quite nice."

Zhang Tianyi reached out and roughly ruffled Zhang Chulan's hair, which was covered in hairspray, turning it into a mess.

"Get up. Since you've called me 'Master,' I can't let you call me that for nothing."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Chulan's ears perked up instantly, more sensitive than radar.

"Any benefits?"

He scrambled to his feet, moving as nimbly as a monkey, and then fawned over the table, picking up the teapot and refilling Zhang Tianyi's teacup.

"Master, please have some tea! Be careful, it's hot!"

Zhang Tianyi took the teacup, took a sip, looked at his eagerly awaiting grandson, and slowly said:

"I see that the lightning magic within you is poorly cultivated."

"You've turned what should have been a perfect Yang Five Thunder Technique into a half-baked one. That Golden Light Mantra is also far from perfect, and the rest... you've simply disgraced Huaiyi."

Zhang Chulan scratched his head sheepishly: "Master, it's not my fault. My father disappeared early, and I've had to hide in the world of supernatural beings for over ten years, so I haven't dared to practice at all. Besides... I also have to guard that..."

At this point, he subconsciously covered his crotch, looking resentful.

"Alright, let's not talk about your virginity mark anymore."

Zhang Tianyi rolled his eyes. "That thing was indeed a life-saving charm left to you by your grandfather, but in my opinion, it's also a burden."

"True strength does not require external forces to restrain desires."

As he spoke, Zhang Tianyi suddenly extended a finger, with a strange purple lightning crackling at its tip.

"Stretch out your hand."

Without saying a word, Zhang Chulan immediately stretched out his hands, palms up, as respectfully as if receiving an imperial edict.

"Zi!"

Zhang Tianyi gently touched Zhang Chulan's brow with her fingertip.

Zhang Chulan felt an unimaginably vast flow of information, accompanied by an extremely pure, domineering yet protective thunderous power, instantly rush into his spiritual platform!

"Boom—"

It was as if a thunderbolt had exploded in his mind.

The previously somewhat mixed and unstable Yang Five Thunder within his body began to be compressed and purified frantically under the guidance of this power!

The impurities that had accumulated from years of not cultivating at full strength were instantly burned away by this purple lightning!

more importantly.

In that instant, he saw another realm of thunder magic.

That transcends the simple concepts of "yang" and "yin," pointing directly to the origin of the Dao...

"This is... an innate lightning attraction?"

Zhang Zhiwei, who was standing to the side, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Zhang Tianyi with some surprise.

"Second brother, this is a bit too much of a gift for us. Can this kid's body handle it?"

"I can handle it."

Zhang Tianyi withdrew his hand, his expression unchanged, but his eyes held a hint of expectation for the younger generation:

"This kid's meridians are more resilient than I imagined. Although he hasn't practiced his internal energy much in the past ten years, he has honed his skills in taking a beating to perfection, and his foundation is quite solid."

Zhang Chulan was trembling all over, with wisps of white smoke rising from his body.

But he did not feel any pain.

On the contrary, he felt better than ever before!

The flow of Qi within my body was more than twice as fast as before, and the feeling of blockage completely disappeared, replaced by a powerful sense of fullness!

"Is this... is this what it feels like to be carried by a max-level character?"

Zhang Chulan opened his eyes, and a faint purple light flashed in his eyes.

He looked at his hands, feeling the surging power within him, and was so excited he almost knelt down again.

"Thank you so much for your merit, Master!"

"Thanks my ass."

Zhang Tianyi put his sunglasses back on, slumped into a chair, and resumed his nonchalant demeanor.

"I just helped you unclog the drain and left you a seed along the way. As for how well it will sprout, that's up to you."

"but……"

Zhang Tianyi changed the subject, her tone becoming slightly playful:

"Since you've taken my benefits, you'd better perform well at this Luo Tian Grand Ceremony."

"Stop thinking about playing dumb and throwing matches all the time. I want you to win every single one of them."

"If anyone dares to stop you, strike them with lightning. If you can't beat them..."
