Growing into the man he is now, if Su Xiaotian were to be asked what is the thing he regrets the most in the span of his two lives, he will for certain, answer that there’s one thing he regrets the most, and that is not paying attention to the ladies who are clearly infatuated at him back on his life on Earth, most probably out of fear of them being caught with the dangerous nature of his job.
It is only now in this life that he realizes that the choice to make is theirs and not his to begin with, causing him to wish to have another chance to meet with them and express his feelings for them as well, and now, he has the chance to do so as he stands in front of one of the ladies he pays special attention to back on his life on Earth.
{Little Caera, it’s good to see you again} looking at the bubbly young lady with her stupefied gaze plastered to his face, Su Xiaotian said, breaking the weird and awkward atmosphere between the two of them, snapping the young lady out of her mind that is currently raging with tempestuous number of questions about him.
{You are… O-older brother Nyx, right?} moving one of her hands to caress the immortal-like young man’s face, she asks in disbelief, the answer that she always wanted coming out as the young man smiles while nodding at her, causing her to plunge deep into his chest as she tries her best to hold herself back from crying.
{Do you know how devastated we are when we heard that you die!? What are you doing trying to fight an organization like that!?} after trying her best not to cry, tears already starts welling out of her eyes, something that the immortal-like young man thinks is problematic as they mature beauties washing dishes in the kitchen will definitely ask once they see it, and then it’s only a matter of how many questions it will take before they find out about their secrets, something that Su Xiaotian wants to tell them as well, but not for now.
“Mom, Me and Xiaoyao will just go outside for a while, I think we won’t be back until late tomorrow” excusing himself to the ladies in the kitchen, Su Xiaotian announced, his excuse being greeted by agreement not only from his beloved mother, but also from his grandmothers and second mother, who seems to be too happy hearing the siblings are going with just the two of them.
Feeling the existence of their son and daughter disappearing from their senses, Su Meiyao and Bai Anxin looks at each other, causing them to giggle with a knowing smile as they knew that the two of them hopes for the same thing, for the siblings to develop their feelings for each other even more.

‘The Unbounded Spatial Talisman is really useful…’ thinking to himself, Su Xiaotian said as he looks around the surroundings, small islands spread around bodies of water surrounding them, golden liquid climbing up towards a body of water that magically clings on the opening in the ceiling, the space of the place they are in refusing to let the water in.
Contrary to the previous rich spirit qi in the place though, now it just seems more normal, as expected from the Golden Spirit Pool given that there are massive amount of resources needed to enhance the spirit qi in the place.
“This is…” seeing the familiar space around them, Wu Xiaoyao looks around before looking at her older brother with an inquiring gaze, wondering why instead of how he brought her here.
“I don’t want mom and the others to know about our secrets for now, Xiaoyao, so let’s talk here” looking at the bubbly young lady with a doting smile on his face, Su Xiaotian said as he moves to pat his younger sister’s head, eliciting a nod from the young lady.
As the two of them found something to sit on, the bubbly young lady starts rambling on, starting from the point where the news about Nyx’s death spreads, causing her, and few other ladies to go ahead and try to take revenge for him, causing a substantial damage to the organization, something that will need a lot of time for them to recover.
What the most impressive is the fact that they seem to find the hideout of the real mastermind of this organization, an old man named Carlson, the very same person that sends a missile just to ensure that he takes down the immortal-like young man.
“Unfortunately for us, that seems to be a trap, and due to our desire to kill that bastard with our own hands, we were trapped in a location surrounded by dozens of armed militants, getting closer and closer to us each second…” Wu Xiaoyao told the immortal-like young man before smiling at him, moving to flex her nearly non-existent biceps to him.
“But older brother, remember how you taught me how to fight? I knocked nearly everyone who come in our way of escape, narrowly dodging death when we escaped that place” she proudly said while pointing her cute nose to the sky, acting like someone who just triumphantly came home from a victory in a war.
“Unfortunately for me, I got stabbed by one of those men, real nasty move, their weapons are coated with a special chemical that continuously accelerates heartbeat, probably why I feel so powerful the moment I got stabbed as well” she said as if what she experienced is just nothing, the feeling of her chest beating fasting and faster each second a terrifying one especially during her last few moments.
“That’s a new type of thing they developed, and there’s no solution for the thing, heck they even tried cardioversion to me and that just accelerated the process” the bubbly young lady said with a helpless smile on her face as she closes her story about her life on Earth after the immortal-like young man’s previous life dies there, but not before a closing remark.
“The others… well they look really sad when I’m lying there, but did not forget to tell me about something, do you know what that is, older brother?” looking at the young man as she moves to sit on his lap, Wu Xiaoyao asks, finding it funny how they treat each other as younger and older siblings back on Earth, now turning into real siblings in this world.
Hearing her question, Su Xiaotian just smiles helplessly, already having an idea about what the bubbly young lady heard from the other ladies he met, most likely on his missions, on Earth.
“They told me to make sure you don’t escape from us in the afterlife, and also, warm your bed for you until they arrive as well, hehehe, can you believe them?” looking at him while giggling, Wu Xiaoyao fails to hide the hint of sadness she has from missing the others as well, ladies that had gone through thick and thin with her just for them to take revenge for the young man they love, even despite the fact that the young man never return their affection in a romantic way, the way all of them want.
