Chapter 226: Return Gift, Forbidden Curse: Heavenly Fire Ends the World!

Luo Chenyu and Facing Ye Xingtong stood at the doorway, their faces full of happiness.

No earth-shattering experience, no ceremony-laden confession, not even a single unnecessary word.

Their relationship had come together so naturally.

But…

Though Luo Chenyu was smiling on his face now, a rare nervousness had crept into his heart.

Facing Ye Xingtong hadn't told him that her grandfather was in the office—meeting the parents… whether in this life or the last, it was a first for him.

Moreover, it had come so abruptly.

"Ahem… Grandfather, Uncle-Grandfather… pleased to meet you, my name is Luo Chenyu… um, I'm Little Tongtong's boyfriend."

Even though he was nervous, Luo Chenyu still braced himself and charged straight ahead.

Anyway…

As long as he wasn't embarrassed, the embarrassed ones would be everyone else.

Old Tian's heart was truly a tangle of mixed feelings right now—his family's little cabbage had been uprooted by a man with the bloodline of a brute.

Back in the day, he had even mocked the brute Luo Kuang for being single his whole life…

Never in a million years did he expect that now the clown would turn out to be himself.

"Heh heh heh, your name has been thundering in my ears these past two days—I've heard it so much my ears have grown calluses, little fellow."

Old Tian forced a smile that didn't reach his eyes, speaking in a barbed tone, his gaze fixed on the hands of the two young people.

Seeing this, Luo Chenyu couldn't help but lower his head to glance at Facing Ye Xingtong beside him.

In his view, only Facing Ye Xingtong would chant his name day in and day out, and the sense of happiness in his heart was simply beyond words.

Facing Ye Xingtong looked back at Luo Chenyu the same way, her eyes full of love.

Old Mu, meanwhile, just stood to the side chuckling, saying nothing.

Together with An Chen, he had turned into one of the melon-eating onlookers.

Old Tian: "…"

So angry I could shiver!!

"Come in, sit down and talk."

Hearing those words, Facing Ye Xingtong immediately let out a sigh of relief in her heart, took Luo Chenyu's hand, and walked toward the sofa.

After sitting down.

Luo Chenyu smiled slightly, pulled two items from his spatial backpack, held them out in front of Old Tian and Old Mu, and said, "I came in a hurry, I didn't have enough time to prepare—please forgive me, the two of you!"

The situation had sprung up so suddenly that he really had been caught off guard.

He could only pick out two items meant for mages from his stockpile to give them.

Old Tian and Old Mu exchanged a glance.

Each saw surprise in the other's eyes.

This little fellow was remarkably mature, completely lacking the greenness of a mere eighteen-year-old, and instead looking more like a sly old hand who had been around the Hunjishe Society.

Most young people, after becoming famous, would have at least some arrogance about them.

But the Luo Chenyu before them looked fierce enough, yet showed none of that "aftereffect" at all.

"You kid, you're not bad!"

Old Tian muttered with a dark face, then without ceremony took the gift from Luo Chenyu's hand and began examining it.

The next moment.

He froze slightly, his heart filling with astonishment.

【Source of Magic Power】

863

Quality: SS-grade

Type: Special Treasure

Restriction: Level 100 (Fourth-Turn), Mage-class Profession

Additional Property: Every time a mage-class skill is released, 50% of the consumed magic power is immediately returned, with a certain probability of returning all magic power.

Additional Property: Meditation skill effect increased by 100%, and a new passive effect added—when no skill is being cast, one can passively enjoy 30% of the Meditation skill's effect.

……

A newly awakened profession-bearer, and yet he could produce a Fourth-Turn treasure—and an SS-grade special treasure at that.

The key point was, this was a treasure he had been trying to buy for all these years without ever getting his hands on it.

And now…

It had fallen into his lap so easily.

"Sit, you have a heart!"

Although that hurdle in his heart hadn't fully passed yet, his good feelings toward Luo Chenyu had indeed taken a great turn for the better now.

Seeing this, Old Mu didn't hesitate, took the gift and examined it.

"Tsk tsk tsk… this young man is quite the rich one, isn't he!"
