Jiang Nan got home and flopped onto his bed.

Looking at his radiant smile in the photo, he still felt it wasn't quite right.

He even touched it up a little with a photo-editing app before sending it to Xia Yao.

Jiang Nan: "Sister Xia Yao, who's this guy? He came looking for me at the night market today! Do you know him?"

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Xia Yao to reply.

Message from "Wolf Queen":

"Pfft... Hahahaha! What happened? How'd Luo Tianxiang end up looking like that?"

"Why are his pants wet? And that expression!!!"

"(Image)???????????"

It was a sticker of a little white rabbit clutching its stomach, rolling on the ground and kicking its legs as it laughed!

"Xiao Nan! I love you so much!???!"

Jiang Nan looked at Xia Yao's username and profile picture, and felt completely thrown off...

He replied, "He came to the night market with some people and told me to stay away from my sister. I sent him packing!"

Xia Yao: "Are you okay? Luo Tianxiang's a piece of trash, but he's really strong! Bronze, eight stars, and his ability lets him transform into a beast!"

"Worried!"

South God: "What do you think? Look how brightly I'm smiling!"

Xia Yao: "Hahaha! I'm so curious how you pulled that off!"

"But don't let your guard down. He's a real creep and loves making trouble behind people's backs! Your sister and I have both suffered because of him!"

Jiang Nan furrowed his brows. "What exactly happened? What were you going to tell me over dinner that day?"

Xia Yao: "You know how most Spirit Warriors enter the Spirit Ruins in teams!"

"I'm a close-combat fighter, your sister's a magic-type damage dealer, and Luo Tianxiang's also a close-combat fighter. There's another guy, Han Cheng, who's a Shield Warrior!"

"Luo Tianxiang likes your sister! The Luo Family is powerful and influential throughout the north, and Old Master Zhong also wants to bring the two of them together!"

"At first, things were pretty harmonious in the team! But after Luo Tianxiang got support from his elders..."

"He started going too far! He kept using any excuse he could find to get close to your sister in the Spirit Ruins! He even tried to stop Xue Xue from interacting with other guys!"

"Xue Xue would never get together with someone like him, of course. It really stressed her out!"

"But the Zhong Family had done her a great kindness, and with the old master saying that, she was caught between the two sides!"

"Once, at a group dinner, he actually went so far as to drug the drink Xue Xue was having!"

"If I hadn't noticed in time, it would've been over!"

"After that, things in the team got more and more tense. Now, just seeing that guy makes me sick!"

Jiang Nan looked at the screen full of messages from Xia Yao, his expression turning completely cold.

He had never been a good person!

Zhong Yingxue was arguably the only person in this world who mattered to him!

Life at the orphanage had been hard, and the two of them had relied on each other.

Jiang Nan remembered every little kindness Zhong Yingxue had shown him!

He could never let go of that bond!

Now, after all this time, they had finally reunited!

And that guy had gone after someone he cared about?

He didn't care what kind of family the Luo Family was! He'd make sure Luo Tianxiang paid for it!

He replied right away, "Tomorrow's Saturday, so there's no school! Sister Xia Yao, want to go on a date?"

"(Image)! Can't wait!"

Xia Yao: "What do you want to do to me??'?'?"

Jiang Nan, sprawled on his bed, shuddered and broke out in goosebumps.

Thinking of Xia Yao's short silver hair and incredible figure, he swallowed hard.

Was this gorgeous girl really going along with it?

"I wouldn't dare! I'm scared of your Invincible Big Throat Lock!"

[Resentment Points +333 from Xia Yao!]

"Hmph! I don't put a lock on just anyone! ( ̄^ ̄)"

"Quick, tell me—why are you asking me out tomorrow?"

Jiang Nan: "Obviously, to stir up some trouble! An eye for an eye, right?"

"After what he's done, why let him off? We should strike first!"

Xia Yao: "Are we going after Luo Tianxiang? You have a plan? Count me in! Count me in!"

Jiang Nan didn't know that Xia Yao, who was lying on her bed playing on her phone, had already jumped up in excitement!

Jiang Nan: "Ahem... It's a covert operation. Don't tell my sister..."

Xia Yao: "Oh no! I just got too loud, and your sister came into my room!"

Jiang Nan: "???"

Too loud? Wait, did the two of them live together?

Since when?

Had Xia Yao already made a move?

Jiang Nan felt like he'd just learned something he shouldn't have!

"Gotta go! I'll pick you up at your place tomorrow morning!"

Zhong Yingxue, wearing a cool, white nightdress, rubbed her sleepy eyes and pushed the door open. "Xia Yao, why are you yelling in the middle of the night? Go to sleep already..."

But Xia Yao wasn't wearing pajamas at all! She was completely bare up top, with only a pair of black panties on below...

Zhong Yingxue got a headache just looking at her.

Xia Yao whined, "I had a nightmare! I was so scared. Xue Xue, sleep with me!"

Zhong Yingxue's face was expressionless. "In your dreams!"

She turned around and shut the door behind her!

So heartless!

Jiang Nan lay on his bed, thinking about tomorrow.

He already had the beginnings of a plan in mind!

"Heh heh heh!"

The more he thought about it, the more mischievously he smiled.

When he checked his Resentment Points, he found he had more than 700,000!

Most of them had come from those adorable classmates of his!

Detoxifying Small Yellow Beans really packed a punch!

Time for Ten Consecutive Draws!

[Thank you for your patronage!] Consolation prize: one jin of Detoxifying Small Yellow Beans! ...

After seeing "Thank you for your patronage!" over and over, Jiang Nan had gotten used to it!

Five rounds later, he'd gotten three Marrow Cleansing Fruits and forty-seven jin of Detoxifying Small Yellow Beans...

Then the Detoxifying Small Yellow Beans had been added to the System Store, too!

They cost 200 Resentment Points to buy!

Jiang Nan was too exhausted to even complain.

In the remaining two rounds of Ten Consecutive Draws, he got another Marrow Cleansing Fruit! Of the other nineteen draws, he got a new consolation prize!

[Thank you for your patronage!] Consolation prize: one bundle of Spiritual Energy Leeks! [Spiritual Energy Leeks!] Effect: Once eaten, they make you last longer and grow more magnificent! The effect lasts three days and three nights! Suitable for both men and women! A must-have for studs and beauties!

Jiang Nan was stunned!

Spiritual Energy Leeks?

Wasn't this just an aphrodisiac?

Three days and three nights! Three days and three nights! Nonstop the whole time?

That was incredible!

On a whim, Jiang Nan immediately wanted to whip up some Stir-fried Chives with Eggs and see how it tasted!

But then he chickened out!

This was serious business!

How could he casually try it? What if something went wrong?

It concerned his lifelong "happiness," after all!

Still, Jiang Nan took out all four of the Marrow Cleansing Fruits he'd won.

Like a hamster munching sunflower seeds, he ate every one of them!

Jiang Nan could feel his talent improving, and his cultivation had reached the peak of Black Iron, ten stars!

He was just one step away from reaching Bronze level!

So far, Jiang Nan had eaten six Marrow Cleansing Fruits!

By the time he'd eaten the fifth, he'd already felt that his talent wasn't improving at all!

He'd hit the limit of what pills could do!

Even something like the Marrow Cleansing Fruit had its limits!

Sure enough, the Marrow Cleansing Fruit had also appeared in the System Store, priced at 100,000 Resentment Points!

Not cheap at all!

Looks like the next time he did Ten Consecutive Draws, the regular prize wouldn't be a Marrow Cleansing Fruit. He wondered what it would be!

Jiang Nan took a deep breath, then suddenly remembered something.

He hurriedly opened the Other Dimension Space to check!

Then he let out a heart-wrenching wail!

The 100,000 yuan he'd gotten from selling Farmer's Three Fists had, sure enough, been split 99:1!

He had only 1,000 left!

His Skill Points, meanwhile, had reached: 1,013!

His miserable wail even woke Zhou Yuqing.

"Mmm... Brother Jiang Nan, what's wrong?"

The sound was just like...

Banging your shin on a table leg!

Kicking your toe against a cabinet door!

Getting your chin caught in a zipper!

Dropping your phone on your face!

Just as miserable...
