The player is playing like a god, but their cheat code is Aatrox.

"Xiaoyu, Sister Yan is arriving today. When you talk to her, don't be as casual as you are with me. Sister Yan has a temper..."

Ah-Zhui stretched out her hand and pointed at the air, her expression very serious.

She stopped talking halfway through her sentence.

I can't let Sister Yan find out that she's talking about her behind her back.

Cang Yu nodded vigorously: "Yes, yes, don't worry."

He verbally agreed obediently, but that wasn't what he really thought.

How he speaks is his freedom.

After several days of exploration, Cang Yu has roughly figured out the connection between himself and Aatrox.

Without directly contacting Aatrox, he tried many methods and even exchanged blows with the sword from a distance for several days.

Finally, he discovered that it seemed that whenever he summoned Aatrox, his body would begin to change.

It's not the kind of effect that's immediate, but rather a gradual and subtle change.

What truly confirmed this for him was yesterday.

These past few days, he's been summoning Aatrox out for some fresh air every now and then, and he can clearly feel that his body is much stronger than before.

Physical strength and fitness are improving in all aspects.

The most obvious thing is height.

It swelled by a full five centimeters, a difference that was almost visible to the naked eye.

Cang Yu guessed that it must be Aatrox's Ascension power at work.

Logically speaking, with his limited abilities, he should have turned into dust on the spot upon coming into contact with the power of ascension.

But for some reason, when this power flowed into his body, it seemed somewhat...gentle?

Could it be that Aatrox is actually all bark and no bite?

The moment the thought popped into Cang Yu's head, he couldn't help but laugh at himself.

Unable to figure out the reason, he was too lazy to think about it anymore.

In any case, becoming stronger is a real thing, and that alone is enough to put his mind at ease a little.

A-Zhui took Cang Yu to the market and bought a lot of groceries, planning to host a welcome dinner for Yan at noon.

Logically speaking, as a third-generation angel, A-Zhui should no longer need to obtain energy from food.

But after spending so much time on Earth, she also developed eating habits.

For no other reason than to satisfy one's appetite.

noon.

In the courtyard, Cang Yu and Aatrox were staring at each other. Meanwhile, A Zhui was busy in the kitchen, with the sounds of pots and pans clattering constantly coming from inside.

Perhaps because of Ah-Zhui, Yan did not make a high-profile appearance this time as he did in the original work.

She didn't transform into a fireball and smash down someone's window; she simply landed calmly in the courtyard, barely stirring up any dust when she landed.

Cang Yu didn't come to his senses until a figure suddenly appeared in front of him. Their eyes met.

Yeah. It's really alluring.

As his gaze swept over Yan's long, slender, white legs and the full curves of her chest, Cang Yu silently gave an objective assessment in his mind.

Yan was also scrutinizing the child in front of her.

Is this the little brat who's got Ah Zhui completely smitten?

She raised an eyebrow.

You can indeed feel a strange attraction from the other person, like a certain scent, or something else, something you can't quite put your finger on.

It's unclear whether the brat spread it on his own initiative or if he himself was unaware of it.

Yan's gaze then fell on the giant sword opposite Cang Yu. She bent down and reached out, intending to pick it up and examine it.

"Smack."

Cang Yu slapped her hand.

Yan's expression immediately darkened, and his tone turned cold:

"Little brat, don't think you can do whatever you want just because Ah-Zhui spoils you."

Cang Yu sneered inwardly.

Ha. I kindly saved your life, and you're giving me attitude?

He withdrew his hand and made a "please" gesture with a blank expression.

Seeing his attitude, Yan's impression of Cang Yu worsened.

He really is just a little brat.

He must have bewitched Ah Zhui.

Just as Yan's hand was about to touch Aatrox

Cang Yu sighed.

Yan stopped moving

Looking at him

"What do you mean, kid? You really think I can't do anything to you?"

Cang Yu shook his head

"No, I was just sighing. The world is about to be destroyed, and my peaceful life is about to end."

Yan frowned.

"What do you mean?"

Yan felt that this kid was clearly making things up.

But a voice inside her told her...

It's best to keep listening.

"Just the literal meaning," Cang Yu said casually, shrugging.

"This world is about to be destroyed because of some stubborn kid."

Yan sneered:

"Ha, don't think I can't tell you're referring to me."

Cang Yu immediately clapped his hands:

"As expected of an angel, so clever, she even figured it out."

Yan's face darkened even more.

She felt like she was being made a fool of by this little brat.

Fortunately, at that moment, Ah-Zhui seemed to notice Yan's arrival and quickly walked out of the kitchen.

She glanced at Yan's hand and saw that it was only thirty centimeters away from Aatrox. Her expression changed drastically, and she exclaimed in surprise:

"Sister Yan! Don't move!"

Yan was so startled by the shout that she froze.

Ah-Zhui rushed over in three strides, pulled Yan's hand away, and then breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Thank goodness..." she patted her chest, still shaken.

"The world almost ended."

Cang Yu has already told A Zhui about Aatrox in the past two days.

Of course, it was mainly because A-Zhui kept pestering him with questions that Cang Yu had no other choice but to tell him.

She could disbelieve a little kid like that. But Ah-Zhui said the same thing...

Before Yan could even ask a question, Aatrox, who had been pretending to be dead on the ground, exploded.

"Ah—! You wicked birdman! You foolish ant!"

The rough, distorted voice suddenly exploded, startling Yan slightly.

She looked in the direction of the sound and discovered that it came from the giant sword on the ground.

Is this sword alive?

Before she could think it through, Aatrox suddenly turned his attention to her again, his voice filled with contempt and rage:

"And you—! You're scared by a mere brat's slap! Are your wings just for show? You don't even have the courage to touch me."

Cowardly ants! Incompetent bird-men! You feathered maggots, each one more disgusting than the last!

The scarlet patterns on the sword throbbed violently, like a maniacal laugh suppressed to the extreme.

"So close! Just a hair's breadth away! I could have tasted fresh blood, I could have crushed this pathetic world with this body."

And you, you meddlesome jerk, ruined everything!

"Shut up, Aatrox!"

"Shut up, snow leopard!"

A-Zhui and Cang Yu's voices exploded almost simultaneously.

But Aatrox clearly has no intention of shutting up.

He was so close to breaking free of the seal and regaining his physical body that his emotions were now boiling over.

The crimson patterns on the sword pulsed wildly, and that rough voice once again pierced the air:

"Shut up? You maggots dare to tell me to shut up? I've been trapped in this damned sword for thousands of years, and I can't even ask for death."

Now, some idiot and a brat dare to boss me around?

The sword trembled violently, and the sound grew increasingly frantic:

"Kill me! Or let me kill you all! Come on!"

Cang Yu smiled

"Binding stones, latrine..."

Alright, now Aatrox is quiet.

Cang Yu reached out and expressionlessly put Aatrox away, his movements as practiced as if he were putting away an ordinary umbrella.

The courtyard returned to silence.

A gentle breeze rustled across the lawn, and the faint bubbling sound of soup simmering on the stove could be heard from the kitchen.

Yan stood there, somewhat dazed.

She subconsciously turned her head to look at A-Zhui, her eyes conveying the same meaning.

Give me an explanation.
