Shui Xiaoze thought for a while before replying, "I can promise you that, but you can only say that you are a guest of the Shui family."

"Whatever." Hua Ruge nodded indifferently.

Shui Xiaoze looked at her gloomily.

"The second condition is that you have to give my mother a comfortable place to stay. Only then will I feel at ease." Hua Ruge continued.

"I promise."

"Also, you people from the Shui Family have to be polite to me. I'll be scared if you guys are always so fierce. Wouldn't it be bad if you guys said something about missing out on?" Hua Ruge looked like he was begging for it.

Shui Xiaoze felt so angry that he almost fainted. This night, he was clearly asking for it so arrogantly, not putting the Shui Family in his eyes, and instead acting like a victim.

"I'll take it that you agree if you don't speak." As Hua Ruge said this, he stretched his body and stood up. Looking at the bright sky outside, he said, "It's really difficult to communicate with you all. The sky is already bright."

Seeing that she was about to leave, Shui Xiaoze frowned: "You better keep your promise, don't say anything that you shouldn't."

"It depends on your performance." Hua Ruge said, then pushed open the door and left. The guards outside did not dare to stop him.

After exiting the door, Hua Ruge breathed in the fresh air and swaggered his way out.

Behind him, Shui Xiaoze smashed everything on the table, he was so angry that he almost killed someone.

Hua Ruge let out a long sigh of relief after leaving the Shui Clan. Wiping away the sweat that did not exist on her forehead, she knew that she would not be able to beat anyone from the Shui Clan.

Fortunately, she had high morals in her heart and had managed to fool this matter. Moreover, it seemed like those people wouldn't be able to react in time.

At this time, the sky had already brightened up, and many stalls used to sell breakfast had been set up. She found a place to sit, ate some more, and then brought them over to Young Master Wu Hen's residence.

After arriving at the Bamboo House, Young Master Wu Hen was still meditating in the room. The Nine-tailed Fox was sleeping soundly against's legs, and upon hearing the voice, the Nine-tailed Fox was the first to run out, running towards Hua Ruge.

"Good little Jiu, I'll give you something nice to eat." She took out a meat bun.

The Nine-Tailed Fox was a picky eater. Other than dried meat, it did not eat anything else. Thus, when it saw the meat bun, it shook its head.

"Taste what we humans eat, I guarantee you that you will like it very much." Hua Ruge then handed the bun over to it, and the Nine-tailed Fox finally started to eat with difficulty.

At this time, Young Master Wu Hen also walked out from his room. He was dressed in a spotless white robe with a calm and relaxed smile on his face. He was clearly in the mortal world, yet he was unaffected by it.

"What happened?" he asked as he descended the steps.

Hua Ruge looked up at him. "How do you know I'm busy?"

"Normally you would still be in bed at this hour." Young Master Wu Hen exposed her.

"This is called enjoying life." Hua Ruge tried to justify his words before continuing, "I was taken to their mansion by the Shui family last night. I just came out."

"Capture you?" Young Master Wu Hen thought for a moment and asked, "They found out your identity?"

"I don't know why you're so fast, but that's it." Hua Ruge continued, "But because of this, I met Mother, which is also a great thing."

"Did they make things difficult for you?" The Young Master Wu Hen was concerned about this matter.

"They said they wanted to kill me, but I've pulled you in. After scaring them for a while, they were still afraid of you and did not make a move." Even at this point, Hua Ruge still had lingering fear in his heart.

Young Master Wu Hen stroked her head soothingly and said, "? I'll protect you, don't be afraid."

Hua Ruge swallowed his saliva and then said: "I have only come to inform you that the Shui Family will start probing you, but I think they will not dare to go overboard.

"Alright." Young Master Wu Hen cooperated unconditionally.2

"Thank you." Hua Ruge thanked him.

"There's no need to talk about this between us." Young Master Wu Hen did not feel that it was anything special.

Hua Ruge rubbed his nose: "You're a really good person."

"So?" Young Master Wu Hen was teasing her intentionally.

"So can you do me another favor?" Hua Ruge was embarrassed even when he said that.

"Hmm?"

Hua Ruge took a deep breath and said, "Can you say in front of everyone that we are that type of relationship?"

Young Master Wu Hen raised his eyebrows doubtfully.

"The kind of relationship between men and women." Hua Ruge lowered her head and did not look at him.

Young Master Wu Hen was a little surprised at first, but quickly let out a soft laugh and asked: "Are you sure?"

"I think that's the only way to frighten them." Hua Ruge was also helpless.

"Sure." When the Young Master Wu Hen replied, his eyes revealed joy that he had never seen before, to the extent that even the aloof and noble him could feel such strong emotions, the only person who could do that was Hua Ruge.

Hua Ruge only let out a sigh of relief after hearing his agreement: "You've helped me a lot this time, if there's anything in the future, just say it.

"It doesn't need to be so clear." The Young Master Wu Hen said, "Will the Shui Family harm you?"

"For the time being, I won't. Don't worry." Hua Ruge said somewhat gratefully.

"What are we going to do from now on?" he asked again.

"Let's establish ourselves here and try our best to improve our abilities. If the Shui family doesn't know their place, it will be a different matter." Hua Ruge planned.

"Yes." Young Master Wu Hen felt that this development was still reasonable.

The two chatted for a while. Hua Ruge took a nap at the Bamboo House, then returned to the Academy to cultivate. She felt that relying on her intelligence would probably take a while, if there were more conflicts in the future, she would need to rely on strength to have the right to speak.

However, because her cultivation technique had reached a bottleneck, she did not achieve any breakthroughs after a few days of cultivation. She went to the Compendium Pavilion for a few days before she found out the problem.

Most of the time, if her realm was too low, she wouldn't be able to use a high level technique, so she had to break through to the next realm.

Although other Element Body s were not easy to break through, she, who had Devouring Beast s, wasn't too difficult.

As long as she had enough resources, she would be able to break through. She thought for a moment, then decided to take a walk around the ore shop.

After leaving the cultivation room, she did not immediately go to the ore market to visit her mother. On the way, she bought a lot of things, from furniture and utensils she liked to buy, from knitwear to various kinds of food.

Just as she was about to enter the door with the dim sum in hand, she met Shui Yutong who was about to walk out.

The moment Shui Yutong saw Hua Ruge, his face darkened and he said, "Do you really think this place is your own home?
