It's Good to Be Young: Out Like a Light

Bao Liang shrugged. "I don't deny that there are indeed quite a few 'Pocket Monsters' produced by inbreeding among humans, and of course, there are also quite a few love-struck Soul Beast."

"... I suddenly feel like maybe the world should just just end like this..."

"I think we should try to salvage the situation a little more. Let's not say anything that's detrimental to unity."

After swiftly crossing the Ming Dou Mountain Range, the Red Dust Mansion soon came into view.

But at this moment, Bao Liang hesitated, leaving the guards at the door and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion tucked under his arm full of doubt.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion looked at Bao Liang and asked, "Bao Liang, is this your home?"

Yeah, what's wrong?

"It's your house, why don't you go inside?"

"You don't understand." Bao Liang smiled with relief. "I was cosplaying as Yu the Great, passing by my home three times without entering."

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion was utterly puzzled. "Although I don't know who that ' Da Yu' is, what are you trying to achieve by doing this?"

Bao Liang glanced at the Three-Eyed Golden Lion indifferently. "If you caused a disaster that would make Di Tian break your legs, would you dare to stroll around in front of Di Tian?"

Three-Eyed Golden Lion: "..."

Bao Liang tilted his head, pointed at the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, and laughed, "Look at you, you're silent again when you encounter a difficult question. What's wrong? You stop talking when you encounter a difficult question?"

Seeing Bao Liang's grin, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion suddenly had an idea. He took a deep breath and said, "Bao Liang! You're back, why didn't you go home?"

"Holy shit!"

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion roared loudly, startling Bao Liang so much that he quickly covered her mouth, but it was no use because someone had already rushed from the Red Dust Mansion to him.

It wasn't until Xiao Hongchen ran up to him that Bao Liang noticed one of the two guards standing at the gate was missing.

Bao Liang: My darling, I'm definitely going to dock your pay for this sneaky guard!

But Xiao Hongchen doesn't care about all that now. If he delays any longer, he and his grandfather will be so frightened by the dream that they'll go see their great-grandmother.

But we can't be too hasty. Bao Liang can definitely run away if he wants to, but if he does, my grandfather and I will be so scared that we'll have heart attacks. We have to take it slow.

"Yo yo yo~ Isn't this our future Heaven-Surpassing Douluo Bao Liang? What? You've finally remembered you have a home?"

"It's been almost a week since you left, and you haven't replied to any of my messages. What's wrong? Are you blinded by the beauties at Shrek?"

"Xiao, don't slander me! I kill every single Shrek member I see, how could I possibly be tempted?" Hearing Xiao Hongchen's sarcastic tone, Bao Liang's expression was strange, but he absolutely refused to believe that Bao Liang had been bewitched by the Shrek members.

But as if he had thought of something, Bao Liang's tone softened slightly. "Um, how's Sister Meng's been lately? Can you give your brother a heads-up?"

Xiao Hongchen looked at Bao Liang smile, without saying a word.

But the more the Xiao Hongchen seemed to be like this, the more afraid Bao Liang became.

"Laugh... Sister Meng won't be very angry, will she?"

Xiao Hongchen's expression suddenly relaxed. "I am angry, after all, you know how clingy Meng is to you, and yet she hasn't shown up for days and hasn't replied to any messages."

"However, Grandpa explained to Meng what you were after this, so it's understandable that it took longer, and Meng understands."

"If you don't appease me properly this time, I don't need to tell you what kind of hard life you'll have in the future, do I?"

Hearing this, Bao Liang proudly patted his chest. "Don't worry, the good stuff I brought back this time will definitely appease Sister Meng."

"By the way, I mentioned it to Grandpa Jing. Grandpa Jing probably didn't let you absorb Soul Ring, right?"

"Don't worry, we know our own strength." Xiao Hongchen said nonchalantly, leading Bao Liang home. "Without other opportunities, I definitely can't absorb the 100,000-year-old Three-Legged Golden Toad Soul Ring with my Seventh Soul Ring, and I haven't found a more suitable one for Meng's Soul Ring yet."

Finally, Xiao Hongchen led Bao Liang to the door, but seeing that the room was dark and the lights were off, Bao Liang immediately sensed a sense of danger.

She grabbed Xiao Hongchen, preventing him from taking another step forward.

"Laugh, something's not right." Bao Liang's expression was serious.

"What's wrong?"

Bao Liang's expression grew increasingly serious. "Why are the lights off in the room? Why can't I sense Grandpa Jing and Sister Meng's presence?"

Xiao Hongchen sighed, "I broke the Soul Guidance Lamp at home while doing an experiment today, and then the chain reaction messed up the experiments that Meng and Grandpa were doing as well. All the Soul Power circuits melted down, and now our house is experiencing a major power outage."

"As for why I didn't sense Grandpa and Meng's presence... well, we're going to acquire Soul Ring later, which will definitely be fraught with danger. Grandpa was thinking of making a ranged Soul Tool to conceal our presence, and then when I exploded... you know what I mean."

Bao Liang was speechless. "Laughable, you have the nerve to laugh at me for destroying my house? I think you're no less capable."

"Get lost! If you keep mocking me, I won't be pleading with Meng for you later."

"Hey, hey, hey! I was just joking, look at you, you're in such a hurry again."

Just as Bao Liang was about to go in, the Eye of Destiny between the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's forehead activated on its own, warning her that there was great terror in the crack of the door and she should not look.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion sneered.

Hilarious! I'm the Emperor Auspicious Beast Three-Eyed Golden Lion! What terrifying creature haven't I seen?

Come on! Let me see what's going on.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion looked up and saw a woman with white hair, red eyes, and a pale face staring intently at it through the crack in the door.

After realizing he had seen Him, he put a finger to his lips, grinned, and gave a particularly eerie smile.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion's vision went black again and again, and it fainted from fright.

Bao Liang was holding the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, suddenly felt that the little guy in his arms had stopped moving. He looked down and saw that the child had fallen asleep.

"It's good to be young, you can fall asleep as soon as your head hits the pillow."

As Bao Liang led the Three-Eyed Golden Lion into the room, a top-tier lung attack was launched.

"Ah~ the air at home really does make me feel safe and secure~"

"I don't know why the air in the house seems to have become more energetic, and why I feel so sleepy when I breathe it in..."

The next second, Bao Liang collapsed to the ground, and at the same time, Xiao Hongchen turned his head, his face already covered with a gas mask.

Meng Hongchen also came out from behind the door, squatted down in front of Bao Liang, and stroked Bao Liang's face, stroking it little by little, with a sickly smile always on her face.

Then he put a collar around Bao Liang's neck, picked Bao Liang up, and slowly walked into his room.

Xiao Hongchen watched Meng Hongchen depart and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Being young is great, you can fall asleep as soon as your head hits the pillow..."

"The dream has been getting more and more terrifying lately. In order to deal with Bao Liang, they actually developed a drug that is completely harmless to the human body, and even beneficial, but will cause the body to automatically trigger forced hibernation."

"This is truly terrifying..."

"Sure enough, women are the most troublesome thing."

"If I, Xiao Hongchen, ever have a girlfriend in this life, I'll chop her up in front of the entire Mingdu population!"
