Luo Chen, having just finished shaving and tidying himself up, trimmed his hair a little shorter. He actually quite liked his long hair; in his past life, he had always wanted to grow it out, but he was constantly lectured by relatives and friends, which he found incredibly annoying.

In this life, there was finally no one to lecture him. He walked out of his room and saw his parents and that adorable little girl already sitting at the dining table.

You really have to admit, Luo An'an was just so cute!

Luo Chen had always wanted a younger sister. In his previous life, he was an only child, and he had assumed he was still an only child in this life. He never expected his parents to be so quiet about such a big development!

Luo Chen took his seat, and looking at his parents, who seemed to have aged, he couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt.

"Mom, Dad, your son has been unfilial, making you wait so long." Luo Chen kept his head down, not daring to look at them.

Luo Dashan and Lin Xiaomei spoke in unison: "Oh, it's alright! As long as you're back, that's all that matters!"

"Brother, are you really my brother? Brother, why are your eyes two different colors?" Luo An'an asked, looking at Luo Chen, who looked a bit different from her, with a puzzled expression.

Luo Chen's heart nearly melted at the sight of Luo An'an. He said softly, "Your name is Luo An'an, right? How about I call you An'an from now on?"

Luo An'an liked this brother, too. She felt a sense of security around him, so she replied in a milky voice, "Okay~!"

"Brother's eyes are like this because I have a very powerful martial soul!"

Luo An'an nodded as if she understood, then pointed at Luo Chen's hair: "Then why is Brother's hair white? Just like an old grandpa."

Luo Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He was only seventeen, and his own sister was saying he looked like an old man.

"It's not white, it's silver-white," he explained patiently. "Brother stayed in a very, very cold place for a long time, and my hair turned this color."

"Will Brother's hair turn black again in the future?"

"No, it won't."

Luo An'an wrinkled her little nose, reached out with her small hand to touch Luo Chen's hair, then touched her own to compare, and said earnestly, "Brother's is still better looking."

Luo Chen's heart melted all over again.

Lin Xiaomei's eyes turned red again, and Luo Dashan said softly, "Xiaomei, our son is back. It's such a wonderful day, why are you crying?"

Lin Xiaomei sobbed, "Didn't you hear our son say he stayed in a very, very cold place for a long, long time?"

Luo Chen felt a bit helpless; it was true that the Far North was freezing, but he had actually been quite warm inside the Time Hourglass.

He comforted his mother, telling her that he was a spirit master and didn't fear the cold, which finally put Lin Xiaomei at ease.

Luo An'an looked at Luo Chen with a sweet smile: "Brother, can you feed me~?"

"I can, of course I can!" Luo Chen agreed without a moment's hesitation, but Lin Xiaomei interjected, "Luo An'an! Your brother just got back, and you won't even let him rest? You just learned how to eat by yourself, and now that your brother is home, you're making him feed you again. You're quite something!"

Seeing this, Luo Chen said, "Oh, Mom, don't scold An'an. I'm happy to feed her!" As he spoke, he picked up Luo An'an and began feeding her with her little spoon.

Lin Xiaomei huffed, "I give up. You spoil the old one, and you spoil the young one."

Luo Chen and his father exchanged a glance, and Luo Dashan immediately went over to comfort his wife.

Luo Chen held Luo An'an and watched how his father coaxed his mother; the siblings caught each other's eyes and both started to laugh.

Lin Xiaomei wasn't actually angry, so the whole family soon began to eat.

Luo An'an ate big mouthfuls of the food Luo Chen fed her, and Lin Xiaomei remarked, "You little rascal, you won't eat when I feed you, but you eat when your brother does?"

Luo An'an made a face and said, "Brother's food just tastes better than Mom's!" She shook her little head as she spoke.

"You little ungrateful thing!" Lin Xiaomei laughed and scolded.

After the meal, Luo An'an snuggled into Luo Chen's arms, and the family sat together just like that.

Lin Xiaomei said, "An'an, come down. Brother is tired, let him get some rest, okay?"

Luo An'an shook her head like a rattle: "No, no, I want Brother to hold me!"

Luo An'an always felt that the "scent" on her brother was very pleasant.

Suddenly, the Evil Emperor spoke: "Kid, this sister of yours is a bit unusual, isn't she?"

"What do you mean, unusual?" Luo Chen asked.

"This little girl can sense spirit power, which means her affinity for spirit power is extremely high!"

"Spirit power affinity?"

"That's right. How should I put it? Simply put, she can sense the concentration of spirit power, and her speed at absorbing it is much faster than the average person!"

Luo Chen looked at Luo An'an in his arms, wondering if this little one was a genius.

But his parents' martial souls weren't very good; what kind of martial soul could his sister possibly have?

"Evil Emperor, can I improve my sister's martial soul level? I'm afraid the one she awakens won't be very good," Luo Chen asked.

"In principle, it is possible, but it is quite difficult. Otherwise, it would be common knowledge across the continent."

Luo Chen thought that made sense, but the Evil Emperor changed his tone: "However, given your sister's talent, I imagine her martial soul grade won't be too bad. If you want to improve her talent, you can try once you reach the Titled Douluo level."

Luo Chen understood, though he thought he could try using the laws of time to nourish Luo An'an's body; perhaps it would help when she awakened her martial soul in the future.

Luo An'an pressed her face against Luo Chen's chest and said in a muffled voice, "Brother, please don't leave again, okay?"

Luo Chen was silent for a second.

"Brother promises you, even if I have to leave, I will come back."

"Pinky swear."

Luo Chen extended his pinky finger, hooking it together with Luo An'an's.

"Pinky swear, a hundred years no changes, whoever breaks it is a little puppy!"

"Heehee, big brother is the best!" Luo An'an planted a kiss on Luo Chen's cheek.

Luo Chen felt wonderful for the rest of the day!

That night, after coaxing Luo An'an to sleep, Luo Chen returned to his own room.

"What? Don't want to leave?" the Evil Emperor teased.

"I still have to go, but I want to stay for a few more days. I'll write a letter to my teacher tomorrow; I plan to head to Tiandou City to see him after a while. I wonder how that guy Su Heng is doing? He hasn't been harmed by Qian Renxue yet, has he?" Too many thoughts flooded Luo Chen's mind at once.

"When do you plan to obtain your third soul ring?"

Hearing the Evil Emperor bring this up, Luo Chen remembered. He hadn't obtained a soul ring since breaking through level thirty, and his Gulu Ball had also awakened a new form.

The Dark Gulu Ball was somewhat different from the one in the Kingdom of Locke. The ability of this Gulu Ball was to increase the capture success rate by fifty percent in dark environments or against dark-type soul beasts, with a chance to grant a dark attribute or enhance and mutate existing dark attributes.

In the settings of this Gulu Ball, the dark attribute was balanced against the holy attribute; the two attributes restrained and checked each other.

With this, the Qian family's Angel martial soul would have no face left in front of Luo Chen.

However, he soon stopped dwelling on these matters. The soul beast issue required more investigation, and his top priority right now was accompanying his sister.

Tomorrow, he would take his sister to ride the Blazing Wolf and fly on the giant eagle!
