697 How Good
Hu Changyang’s eyes were also sparkling. He smiled and said, “Brother, don’t worry. I won’t fall behind in martial arts. Don’t worry, I’m at home.”
Hu Changyang patted his chest. He would not drag his brother down. One day, he would grow up and walk side by side with his brother. His brother was his role model and pride. He had to be his brother’s pride.
Hu Changshou looked at his younger brother who was like the morning sun and smiled in relief. He couldn’t help but put down his chopsticks and reach out to rub Hu Changyang’s head.
Hu Changyang smiled happily. He liked it when his brother was like this because at times like this, he would feel very close to his brother’s heart.
Madam Cao also smiled in relief. She said kindly, “Alright, let’s eat.”
Seeing her grandchildren being able to support each other was the proudest achievement of every elder. Madam Cao felt very warm in her heart.
Hu Shuangshuang was already married and her life was stable. Every time she came back, Madam Cao could tell from her good complexion that her granddaughter was not doing badly. And now, Hu Changshou and Hu Changyang could also stand firm. Hu Shuangshuang would only live better.
Madam Cao felt warm in her heart just thinking about it.
Now, as long as Su Xiaozhi stopped hurting the children, this family would be great.
Madam Cao glanced at Su Xiaozhi. Su Xiaozhi lowered her head and ate quietly. Madam Cao picked up a piece of chicken for Su Xiaozhi. “Eat some meat to nourish your body.”
She really hoped that Su Xiaozhi would not do what she did in the past. When Hu Changshou returned this time, Madam Cao felt that something was different. This was her last chance. If she missed it, it would never happen again.
“Thank you, mother.”
Su Xiaozhi smiled and thanked Madam Cao gratefully.
Madam Cao’s gaze was gentle. Su Xiaozhi lowered her eyes and swore in her heart that she would definitely not disappoint them again this time.
Hu Changshou and Hu Changyang remained silent.
Hu Changyang’s heart ached for his brother’s suffering, so he didn’t want to bother with Su Xiaozhi anymore.
As for Hu Changshou, it was because he had long given up. He did not dare to have any hope for Su Xiaozhi.
She needed a long time to prove that it was not a lie.

Su Xiaolu returned to Goathorn Town and returned home. The three of them returned to their rooms to rest.
As soon as Su Xiaolu returned to her room, she lay down and entered the Space first.
“You’re here.”
Mantis Shrimp, who was lying in the pile of Interface Stones, greeted Su Xiaolu as soon as it saw her.
Su Xiaolu walked over and poked Mantis Shrimp’s stomach. “Why are you so rude? According to human age, you’re still a baby.”
Mantis Shrimp’s voice was cute, but its tone was mature.
Mantis Shrimp turned its head and rubbed against Su Xiaolu’s palm. It leaned closer to her. “Xiaolu, our Guardian Beast race is a legacy. I have a lot of knowledge since I was born. After my brother died, I became a real Guardian Beast. I know even more, so although I’m young now, I have a lot of knowledge, much more than all your ancestors combined.”
“Xiaolu, pet my back. I love it when you pet my back.”
Mantis Shrimp rubbed against Su Xiaolu’s palm, hoping that she could smooth its fur.
Su Xiaolu pinched Mantis Shrimp’s ears and stroked the fur on its back. It was smooth and comfortable.
Mantis Shrimp was intelligent, but it was a beast. Being stroked made it feel very comfortable.
She would also feel more relaxed.
A few Interface Stones had already been half-eaten. Mantis Shrimp’s stomach bulged slightly. Su Xiaolu felt comfortable and it even flipped on its stomach.
Its soft limbs hung down, and it closed its eyes in bliss.
“Thank you, Xiaolu. You’re the best.”
While Mantis Shrimp enjoyed it, it did not forget to praise Su Xiaolu.
Su Xiaolu thought of the earthquake in the foreign land. She asked in her heart, “Is it normal for an earthquake to happen in the foreign land?”
Mantis Shrimp answered Su Xiaolu without even looking up, “It’s normal. The two worlds have to completely fuse. There will be more earthquakes in the future. This will last for twelve years. It’s already been two years. In another ten years, it will be settled. After the complete fusion, they will become a single world. There won’t be so many earthquakes then, but there will still be some occasionally. In a few decades, humans will develop and live inside.”
“Twelve years. When the two worlds started to fuse, I was exactly twelve years old.”
Su Xiaolu recalled what happened two years ago. She couldn’t help but mutter that it might be a coincidence.
“Xiaolu is 14 years old now. When you’re 24 years old, the two worlds will be one.”
Mantis Shrimp said cutely.
“Why do I have the Space? Mantis Shrimp, you have so much knowledge. Do you know this?”
Su Xiaolu thought about how she had transmigrated into this world and had the Space. The two worlds had fused with each other. It was so mysterious. Could she know the answer?
“Perhaps you’re lucky. According to the time, my mother was already eating the wall between the worlds at that time. You were born at that time and were lucky enough to obtain this small world.”
Mantis Shrimp categorized this as luck. Anyway, it was about the same.
What it did not tell Su Xiaolu was that when the Guardian Beast raised its descendants, eating the bitwall would cause changes in other worlds. Su Xiaolu should have been affected. She was not destined to die early. The change of the Guardian Beast was also the reincarnation of the Heavenly Dao. The Heavenly Dao should compensate Su Xiaolu.
The Space was a very good gift. It could be used for storage or farming. The spiritual spring was even more precious. No matter what Su Xiaolu did, it could at least guarantee her a rich life.
However, he did not expect to meet this delicate girl. No wonder humans often said that it was fate. It was really strange.
“I see—”
Su Xiaolu smiled. Speaking of transmigration, she was both unlucky and lucky.
After playing with Mantis Shrimp for a while, Su Xiaolu left the Space to sleep.
The next day, Zhou Zhi came alone.
Su Xiaolu heard a knock on the door and opened it. Zhou Zhi, who was dressed in white, was standing in front of the door. He looked like an immortal. He smiled gently. “Good morning, Xiaolu.”
“Fourth Brother, please come in.”
Su Xiaolu invited Zhou Zhi into the house. Old Wu was already cultivating. When he saw Zhou Zhi, he pursed his lips.
Zhou Zhi greeted Old Wu and Gui You respectfully. “Good morning, Seniors.”
“Good morning, Wisdom King.”
Gui You replied coldly.
Old Wu also replied indifferently, “Yes, you’re quite early.”
Su Xiaolu brought Zhou Zhi to the kitchen. She smiled and said, “Fourth Brother hasn’t eaten breakfast yet, right? Coincidentally, we haven’t eaten either. I’m going to cook porridge to eat. Fourth Brother, do you know how to start a fire?”
Zhou Zhi nodded. “Yes.”
With that, Zhou Zhi went to the stove and started a fire skillfully. Seeing that Su Xiaolu was about to wash the rice, he went over to help and naturally took the basin. “Let me do it. You have too much rice. You still have to add more water.”
