Chapter 7

However, he quickly adjusted himself.

After all, Zhao Tianba was still nearby.

The man had just lost his son; if he showed happiness, he would probably get beaten up.

After seeing Zhao Tianba off, Chen Hao arrived at his room.

He casually locked the door.

"Snap!"

Chen Hao snapped his fingers, and instantly a flame appeared at his fingertips.

"Is this the Flame Control ability?"

Chen Hao tried to separate the flame from his body.

As a result, the flame dissipated not long after it left his body.

"My proficiency in flame control is not enough."

"And, it seems the energy is not enough either."

Ability users are like mages; they not only need to improve the proficiency of their skills but also need to improve their ability energy.

This ability energy is like a mage's mana.

Chen Hao opened the door, only to find Chen Qiang standing at the entrance.

"Little Hao, young man, I understand you have high energy."

"But you also need to take care of your health."

"If possible, Grandpa hopes you will find a girlfriend."

"And spread the branches and leaves for my Chen family soon."

"How about it? Do you want me to ask someone to introduce you?"

"Aunt Wu's daughter, Xiao Cui, is not bad."

"She works as a waitress in a hotel. I see she has big hips and is good for childbearing; she can definitely give our Chen family a big, fat boy."

Hearing this, the image of Wu Xiaocui appeared in Chen Hao's mind.

That was a big fatty weighing over two hundred pounds who had to eat fatty meat at every meal.

"Forget it, Grandpa, I'm still young, no rush."

"Hey, how can you not be in a rush? Grandpa is almost dying of anxiety."

Just as Chen Qiang was about to continue saying something.

"Grandpa, a guest is here."

Chen Hao immediately went up to receive them.

Nighttime.

Chen Hao and Chen Qiang were eating at a table.

"Come, try the braised pork Grandpa made."

"Thank you, Grandpa."

Chen Hao picked up a piece and put it in his mouth.

Subsequently, he said to Chen Qiang, "Grandpa, I want you to do me a favor."

"What favor?"

"In the future, if there are any orders from ability users, you must call me."

"Let me handle it."

"Okay."

Chen Qiang nodded.

Seeing this, Chen Hao couldn't help but say, "Grandpa, don't you want to know why?"

"I don't."

Chen Qiang shook his head.

"You have your reasons for doing this."

"As for what they are, Grandpa doesn't want to know, and you don't tell Grandpa either."

Everyone has their secrets.

As the saying goes, an old man becomes wise.

Chen Qiang is so old; he is not a fool.

Chen Hao clearly hadn't awakened an ability, and then suddenly he had one.

How could Chen Qiang not know the fishiness in this?

It's just that he didn't delve into it.

This is both to protect himself and to protect Chen Hao.

The latter is the most important.

Because this is a world with abilities; who knows if there will be people with ulterior motives who will make a move against Chen Hao.

At that time, they might use him as a hostage or use him as a breakthrough point.

"Little Hao."

"What's wrong? Grandpa."

"Grandpa doesn't care what you do, and I don't care how much you achieve; I just hope you are safe and sound."

"Okay, don't worry, Grandpa, I will take good care of myself."

"That's fine."

"Come, continue eating a piece of braised pork."

Chen Qiang gave Chen Hao a piece of braised pork.

In the following days, Chen Hao spent every day exercising his 【Flame Control】 ability.

He quickly mastered it flexibly.

However, he also encountered a problem.

That was that his internal ability energy was insufficient; he couldn't use 【Flame Control】 for long before he couldn't use it anymore.

"Damn it, a clever housewife cannot cook without rice."

"If a mage has no mana, what's the point of playing!"

"I must find a way to increase the ability energy in my body."

The figure of a guy suddenly appeared in Chen Hao's mind.

"Li Gang, it's him."

Chen Hao planned to start with Li Gang and get a cultivation technique from him.

Chen Hao immediately contacted Li Gang.

Li Gang was a righteous person, and upon hearing that Chen Hao wanted to come and hang out with him.

He immediately expressed his welcome.

Chen Hao took a car to Li Gang's house.

Li Gang's house was a 140-square-meter flat.

After Chen Hao went in, Li Gang greeted Chen Hao to sit down.

He even brought him some fruit.

"Chen Hao, how do you have time to find me today?" Li Gang asked curiously.

"Our brothers haven't seen each other for a long time, so naturally, I wanted to find you for a good get-together."

"You're about to start university soon; the chances of us meeting will probably be fewer then."

"I brought good wine today."

"Today, we won't stop until we're drunk."

Saying this, Chen Hao took out a large mineral water bottle from his backpack.

Looking at the mineral water bottle in Chen Hao's hand, Li Gang was not angry; instead, he was somewhat excited.
