Their commission was suspicious.

"What are you doing?" Ye Yunshang, who was walking by, was stunned when she saw Chen Luo suddenly make a move.

You wouldn't be planning to be a beast in broad daylight, would you?

"Waaah..." Liu Huaixi let out a sob, looking at Chen Luo with some grievance.

Who could blame her when Chen Luo was her mother's savior? So, rounding up, he was practically her benefactor too. Therefore, if he hit her, Liu Huaixi wouldn't be angry, but she would feel wronged.

Why did you hit me?

"Did your talent foresee that I would hit you? Or did you foresee that you would be beaten?" Chen Luo suddenly asked.

"Uh...no." Liu Huaixi paused for a moment, then rubbed her head and slowly stood up, shaking her head in confusion.

Yes, why didn't I remind myself of my own talent?

Liu Huaixi subconsciously glanced at the watch on her left wrist.

Liu Huaixi's talent only marks items with PS and affixes when it discovers them, but Liu Huaixi has also figured out a way to communicate with his talent, which is to look at his own body or look at the items on his body.

Why are you looking at me? Look at him. He's the one who hit you, not me.

Upon seeing the word on the watch, Liu Huaixi pouted.

If his talent could materialize, Liu Huaixi would definitely give his opponent two punches.

It wasn't you who hit it, but you should at least have given me a heads-up.

If you can't even defend against attacks, what use are you to me?

【?╭╮? 】（Feeling wronged】

However, after seeing the watch's response, Liu Huaixi could only sigh and rub her head.

"So you see, fate-based abilities aren't omnipotent. Fate changes every moment. If you don't want to check your watch every second, I suggest you find a safe place to stay."

"Fate-type abilities can be used as a reference, but they cannot be relied upon entirely. The notes on this talent are indeed very useful, but the ability to predict good and bad fortune is easily exploited by others." Chen Luo, who is also a fate-type ability user, shared his experience with Liu Huaixi.

I predicted your prediction!

Liu Huaixi glanced at her watch subconsciously.

He's right.

"So? What should I do now?" Seeing that even her own talent agreed with what the other party said, Liu Huaixi panicked a little.

Perhaps relying too much on talent is indeed a bit arrogant.

But Liu Huaixi didn't want to give up on having those three B-level talent users protect her mother.

Chen Luo must have some brilliant ideas!

Chapter 1042 I am the River God, I really am the River God!

"Huh? You mean there's going to be another person in the house? And someone you've only known for half a day? Are you crazy?" The Herrscher of Knowledge was already straightforward, and after eating the cake laced with Truth Essence, she became even more blunt.

But this can't be blamed on the Lawbringer, since Chen Luo's opening statement was, "From today onwards, Liu Huaixi will be living here."

"I haven't finished yet. She's not staying at my house, she's staying at Xiao Yuan's house. You know our family situation, do you think I'd dare bring her in?" Chen Luo rolled his eyes at the Herald of Knowledge.

Ye Yunshang and the others may not know the situation of Chen Luo's family, but how could the Law Masters not know?

It's not a problem at all that Chen Luo's house is infested with demons and monsters.

Demon: Nightmare

Demon: Inner Demon

Oni: Herrscher of Consciousness (The Herrscher of Consciousness without Fu Hua's physical body, originally existing only as a feather)

Strange: The combination of the above three

cough cough...

In short, the composition of this family group is extremely complex.

"Oh, so you're staying at Xiaoyuan's house. That's not a bad idea." The Herrscher of Knowledge nodded in realization.

Although allowing unsuspecting people to approach one's home could pose a risk of intelligence leaks in the vicinity, it doesn't mean that everyone except Liu Huaixi knew everything.

Ye Yunshang, who comes to Chen Luo's house for meals every day, is completely unaware of the situation.

One more or one less makes no difference.

Having Liu Huaixi live nearby would both allow her to take on commissions and build goodwill, which would be entirely detrimental.

The "favorability discount" isn't something that can be instantly increased just by giving it to you. Instead, you need to gradually raise the other person's true favorability level through daily interactions until it reaches the level displayed by their discount.

Improving genuine favorability is a long process, not something that can be achieved overnight.

As for whether their increased favorability would threaten his position?

Those who understand the laws of nature never worry about this matter.

Hey, my favorability rating is already at 10%, what can these losers who are all stuck at 50% compete with me?

It would be better to let Chen Luo gain favor with them and make their talents cheaper.

Buying talent from them is probably not going to happen, but this favorability discount is a must!

"Originally, we wanted her to buy a villa, since spirit stones have considerable purchasing power, and the relevant departments can handle the spirit stones, requiring only a small handling fee. However, after hearing about the exorbitant price required to buy a villa, she chose to rent instead..."

Upon hearing this, Liu Huaixi smiled sheepishly.

After all, buying a house is indeed very expensive.

Even if you have money, you can't spend it like this!

"Later I thought that instead of giving the money to someone else, it would be better to have her move in with us. That way, she would have an S-level talent as a bodyguard, and we wouldn't need to apply to the relevant departments to rent an A-level talent. The money saved can be used for me to spend money on in-game purchases." Ye Yunshang patted Liu Huaixi on the shoulder.

"A win-win situation!"

"You really have the nerve to let others spend money on you?" the Herrscher of Knowledge asked in surprise.

“That’s not how it works. If you add in the cost of rent and hiring an A-level talent, the monthly expenses would definitely be very high. Just spending money in the game can save you these costs, which is already a very small price to pay.” Liu Huaixi rejected the Herrscher of Knowledge’s idea and looked at Ye Yunshang gratefully.

How much money can you spend on in-game purchases?

I really hit the jackpot this time!

"Forget it, if you've reached an agreement, there's no problem. Anyway, you're not staying at my house." The Herald of Knowledge stopped worrying about it.

"It's Xiao Luozi's house, not yours," Ye Yunshang kindly reminded her.

"This is my house, this is my house. Be careful, or I'll make you dream tonight about a brat ruining your figurines."

"Hiss, we're both civilized people, why be so vicious?" Ye Yunshang gasped.

“Then I must remind you, even Abby has a designated room in this house, but you don’t.” Ye Yunshang decided to retaliate.

"..." The Lawbringer of Knowledge blushed.

Reading, the affairs of scholars...

However, what Ye Yunshang said was indeed true; the Law Master did not have a room at Chen Luo's house.

Because the identity of the Herrscher of Consciousness is too sensitive, and because the Herrscher of Consciousness has indeed not slept in any other room at night, but has always lived in Chen Luo's sea of ​​consciousness, the room that the Herrscher of Consciousness initially arranged for herself has been cancelled.

As Abi is a formal resident who has moved into Chen Luo's house, she has a fixed room.

And the dolls?

They initially had assigned rooms, but after the Doll World was upgraded, they moved to the Fire Moth Dormitory.

To be fair, the facilities in the Moth Chasing Flames dormitory are indeed better than those in Chen Luo's home.

However, they don't often need to use the Moth of Fire dormitory, because most nights, those dolls sleep with Chen Luo—serving as body pillows.

After Chen Luo got a new super-sized double bed, the practice of only choosing a maximum of two dolls per night has now changed to everyone attending!

Then, Chen Luo randomly selected one or two dolls and held them in his arms, kneading them gently.

It's just that Ye Yunshang can't see it, otherwise Ye Yunshang, who also loves figurines, would be so envious she'd cry.

"By the way, Xiaoshi, are you prepared on how to explain to Xiaoluozi's parents who you really are?"

"You don't need to worry about this. The Law of Knowledge can do anything!" The Law of Knowledge was speechless about the previous question, but for this one, it was just a piece of cake.

Just kidding, I'd turn the tide the moment I went up there!

How could a Herald of Consciousness who can alter consciousness be stumped by the issue of identity?

"Starting today, we're roommates? That's great! My master stays home all day and never goes out, so I have no one to play with. By the way, do you want to practice your sword skills? I can teach you." Su Yuan became interested after hearing that she would have a roommate other than her master.

"No, no need. I don't think I'm cut out for swordsmanship." Looking at the large characters above Su Yuan's head, Liu Huaixi quickly shook her head.

She's a skilled swordswoman, but not a good teacher. I wouldn't highly recommend learning swordsmanship from her. Otherwise, you'll be visiting Chen Luo five times a day.

As for why they sought out Chen Luo, is there any need to guess?

Of course, it's because I'm injured and need treatment.

Could it be that they went to Chen Luo to complain?

Therefore, Liu Huaixi was very resistant to learning swordsmanship, especially learning from Su Yuan.

You should think of other ways to protect yourself.

"Chen Luo, come here for a moment." Seeing Liu Huaixi and Su Yuan chatting happily, Ye Yunshang had an idea and called Chen Luo over.

"What are you doing?" asked Chu, sounding somewhat puzzled.

"Come upstairs, I have something to tell you," Ye Yunshang said.

"...I'm sorry, I sell my body, not my art." Chen Luo covered his chest.

"Really selling yourself?" Ye Yunshang was stunned for a moment.

"?!?!" If he was just joking before, Chen Luo was genuinely shocked now.

What do you want to do?

"You're not thinking about anything inappropriate, are you?" Ye Yunshang asked after a long silence, seeing Chen Luo's intense reaction.

"Let's go to the second floor. But I want to warn you, I have big fists, you can't beat me." Chen Luo was still quite confident in Ye Yunshang.

The key point is that Chen Luo doesn't think Ye Yunshang can beat him.

Moreover, Chen Luo was curious about what Ye Yunshang wanted to say to him, so he obediently followed Ye Yunshang upstairs.

Ye Yunshang originally wanted to open the room on the left, but Chen Luo dragged her to his own room.

You can't open that door. If you do, you'll see your nemesis.

Ye Yunshang was initially puzzled by Chen Luo's attitude, but after recalling the scene she had witnessed of Shi Zhilu and Chen Luo "flirting" in that room, she suddenly understood.

Young people these days are really creative!

If you're not going to spend money, why are you afraid to let people see it?

"Why do you need such a big bed for yourself?" Ye Yunshang asked, puzzled, after entering Chen Luo's room.

Because the bed in Chen Luo's room was just too big.

"To build a harem," Chen Luo said expressionlessly.

"Oh, I remember now, this bed was custom-made for you by Bai Zhi, right?" Ye Yunshang suddenly realized.

"You already know, why are you asking?" Chen Luo rolled his eyes at Ye Yunshang.

This bed was custom-made. If it weren't for the storage space that allowed the large bed to be moved in, this bed would have had to be cut into pieces and then assembled piece by piece.

However, this bed was indeed a great help, allowing Chen Luo to sleep while hugging many dolls.

nice!

But just as Chen Luo rolled his eyes at Ye Yunshang, Ye Yunshang's gaze suddenly sharpened. She kicked the door shut, then pinned Chen Luo against it, forcing him into a wall-slamming position.

"What's wrong?" Chen Luo was genuinely surprised this time.

How could Ye Yunshang, such a weakling, have a moment when she turns the tables and becomes unusually serious?

As for one's own safety?

Ha, if Ye Yunshang could lay a finger on Chen Luo, Chen Luo would blow up the Immortal Realm!
