"Interesting."
Lu Ren’s face showed a slight smile.
He didn’t plan to explore too much of this Beidou Emperor Star, nor to witness the customs of this world.
Chang Xin in the Inner Realm still remained silent, not disclosing anything to Lu Ren, even constantly clashing with Chen Xuzi, Xu Fu, and others.
In the end, she beca a bit too arrogant, and was slapped down by Ao Li when he got annoyed, calming down sincerely.
By the end of April, as the temperature ward, and the ice and snow lted, the food stored in the cellar was almost depleted, mostly eaten by Guo Erwa alone.
Since he began practicing boxing, and entered the path of Martial Arts, Guo Erwa’s appetite greatly increased, eating twenty to thirty pounds of at and vegetables a day to maintain his energy.
"I should be fourteen years old today!"
While eating, watching Lu Ren casually eat so decent-looking at with his homade plum sauce, Guo Erwa suddenly spoke.
Lu Ren’s expression didn’t change: "Oh, how do you know?"
"Grandpa Niu had said before, at fourteen, I could get a formal na, and if I were a girl, I could even get married!"
"So do you want to give yourself a na?"
"Uncle, you’re cultured, could you help pick a na?"
Looking at Guo Erwa’s hopeful gaze, Lu Ren pondered for a mont, wanting to decline. But seeing Guo Erwa’s expectant eyes, his heart softened in the end.
This child has endured much hardship and holds great goodwill towards him.
After a long silence, seeing that Lu Ren didn’t speak, Guo Erwa’s gaze dimd. Just as she was about to say sothing, she heard Lu Ren say faintly: "Serve tea."
Hearing this, Guo Erwa was puzzled for a mont, then hurriedly ran to the kitchen to boil a pot of water, brewed so wild tea, and held the wooden cup with both hands in front of Lu Ren.
Lu Ren’s gaze was deep: "Kneel."
"Eh?"
Guo Erwa looked up at Lu Ren’s deep gaze, and though very puzzled by this, she knelt down as instructed.
During these tis, Lu Ren brought her a strong sense of security and taught her many survival skills, for which Guo Erwa was grateful.
"Are you willing to accept as your master?"
Although Guo Erwa didn’t know much about other things, she did learn from Niu Genshan that taking a master is a very significant event.
Equivalent to being reborn by one’s parents.
Becoming parents...
Upon hearing this, Guo Erwa stubbornly shook her head.
"Uncle, I don’t want to take you as my master!"
Lu Ren was surprised and asked: "Why?"
Isn’t it a waste to pass up such a heaven-sent opportunity?
Isn’t it a little wasteful to show such an expression?
Guo Erwa shyly said: "I want to marry you, Uncle."
Upon hearing this, Lu Ren couldn’t hold back, looked at Guo Erwa with an extrely strange expression, and for the first ti, felt at a loss due to Guo Erwa’s sudden notion.
Having been single his whole life, now nearly forty years old, being confessed to by a fourteen-year-old girl...
In the real world, this would land him in jail!
After a long while, Lu Ren asked: "Why did the thought of marrying cross your mind?"
"Because you’re the most amazing man I know, Uncle!"
Lu Ren curiously asked: "What if you et soone stronger than ?"
Guo Erwa shook her head and said: "It’s different, Uncle, because it’s you."
Lu Ren didn’t quite understand, but he knew that at fourteen, Guo Erwa was at the age of puberty, and if not guided properly, she could easily be deceived by sweet talk from those bad n and end up on a path of no return.
If emotionally devastated and not properly guided, it could easily lead to self-destruction.
Damn, this feels more complex than imparting martial arts.
After pondering for a long ti, Lu Ren reach out his hand and firmly pressed Guo Erwa’s head to bow three tis, then released his hand. Looking at the teary-eyed Guo Erwa, he said calmly: "From now on, you shall be called Guo Muyang. I hope you will always maintain your innocence, pure nature, and not abandon your humanity despite your constantly improving strength."
Guo Erwa, now Guo Muyang, didn’t quite understand what Lu Ren ant, but still nodded in confusion.
In the following days, Lu Ren seriously examined Guo Muyang’s bones, and based on the peculiar hidden potential within her, specifically developed a way to guide it. After seven days of training, he finally stimulated a trace of that unusual potential.
Guo Muyang’s body suddenly released a strand of golden fla, swirling around her body.
Lu Ren’s gaze focused sharply but paid no mind to Guo Muyang, who was rolling on the ground as if being scalded alive.
The first burst of potential always brings imnse pain to the body.
He reached out to pinch the strand of golden fla swirling around Guo Muyang.
This was a substantial energy, which, under Lu Ren’s careful observation, harbored unimaginable vitality and massive energy concentration.
Once unleashed, it would possess extrely formidable power.
Although, to Lu Ren today, it rely felt like a tickle, but to Guo Muyang, who was rely at the introductory level of boxing, it was akin to a bug-level existence.
Moreover, with Guo Muyang’s now astonishing constitution, even Martial Arts Family mbers at the Great Perfection Realm of Fist Technique couldn’t hold their own against her for a ti.
If this golden fla is rely used for release, it would be a real pity. If used to refine the body and spirit and enhance the physique, it would be an excellent training assistant.
