"One…Time is u-" when Lian Xun was about to say the time was up, something unexpected happened.


    Xiao Tian managed to hit him!


    Yes. Xiao Tian seeded in hitting Lian Xun''s left cheek.


    Something that should not have happened actually happened.


    *Silence…


    The entire area turned into a dead silence.


    The expression of deep shock blossomed on Lian Xun''s face. He, a martial artist at the high-level grandmaster stage who had a lot of fighting experience, got hit by his junior; a junior who was still at the mid-level master stage.


    Sure, Xiao Tian''s attacks, reflexes, strength, and speed had increased significantly because he was in battle instinct mode, but still, he did not expect Xiao Tian to seed in hitting him in the face.


    He was already at the high-level grandmaster stage, so Xiao Tian''s speed, reflexes, attack, or strength should be useless in front of him.


    ''How could this happen? I should be able to dodge or avoid all of his attacks because the gap between us is so big.''


    It didn''t make sense. With the help of battle instinct, Xiao Tian''s speed, reflexes, attack, or strength should be in the category of the high-level master stage or, at most, low-level grandmaster stage.


    He didn''t want to admit it, but the evidence was sticking to his cheeks. Xiao Tian''s left fist was still on his cheek.


    ''Did I underestimate him too much?''


    Due to how shocked he was, Lian Xun forgot to say anything and only stared at Xiao Tian.


    Currently, Xiao Tian was breathing heavily because fighting in the battle instinct mode consumed a lot of his stamina.


    Like Lian Xun, Lan Ruoxi was also startled. She did not expect Xiao Tian to seed in hitting her master on the cheek.


    Previously, Lan Ruoxi was sure that Xiao Tian would not be able tond an attack on her master''s body because the gap between Xiao Tian and her master was like heaven and earth.


    ''As expected of genius, he is really something!''


    Lan Ruoxi''s lips curled into a seductive smile.


    Unlike Lan Ruoxi and Lian Xun, who were surprised, Xiao Tian wore a sad expression.


    ''I failed.''


    Xiao Tian sighed in helplessness before sitting on the ground.


    Battle instinct had consumed his stamina greatly, so he was in a weak state now. He even could not keep standing.


    At this moment, Xiao Tian was still unaware that he had done something impossible. He was tired so he didn''t see their expressions.


    ''Well, it can''t be helped because he is a martial artist at the grandmaster stage. If I were a martial artist at the high-level master stage, I''m sure the results would be different. Forget it, forget it.''


    Even though Xiao Tian said that in his head, but he was still sad.


    His effort to reach Lian Xun''s house were tough, such as driving for more than two hours, the road full of potholes until walking under the hot weather for several hundred meters.


    Lan Ruoxi walked towards Xiao Tian and helped him up. "Little guy, you are amazing! You even managed to hit him."


    Lan Ruoxi praised Xiao Tian as she smiled gently. She did not expect that Xiao Tian was stronger than before.


    "What is the use of that? I still fail, you know?" Xiao Tian answered before sighing, "I only managed to hit him on the cheek, not injury him."


    "It''s because you don''t know anything about him. If anyone saw your fight earlier, they would have praised you by now. That''s why I said you are amazing." Lan Ruoxi was sure about it because her master was pretty famous.


    ''Master, hurry up and say you will help him.''


    Lan Ruoxi said to Lian Xun through her gaze.


    When Lian Xun noticed Lan Ruoxi''s gaze, he gave cough before saying something to Xiao Tian. "Cough. Even though you failed to injury me, but you still managed to hit my face earlier. For this reason, I decided to make a word for you."


    "Mmmm?" Lian Xun''s words much surprised Xiao Tian.


    Because he failed to injury Lian Xun, he thought Lain Xun would tell him to leave because it was their agreement earlier.


    "You are lucky, little guy." Lan Ruoxi uttered.


    ''Well, he will still help you even though you fail to injury him because he has promised me before.''


    Lan Ruoxi added in her head.


    "But you have to do something for me in exchange." Of course, Lian Xun would not help Xiao Tian for free because it would be unfair for him.


    "Sure? What is it?" Xiao Tian was not surprised with Lian Xun''s words because he knew nothing was free in this world. "Do you want a woman? Or perhaps, do you want money?"


    "Hmph! I''m not like you. I don''t need a woman or your money." Lian Xun spoke and paused for a second before he continued, "I want you to sweep the yard, water the nts, and help me make that swordter."


    "Sure. I can do that." after saying that, Xiao Tian took his smartphone.


    "What are you doing?" Lian Xun asked curiously.


    "Calling maid service to sweep the yard and water the nts." Xiao Tian gave an honest answer.


    "No. I want you to do that." of course, Lian Xun would not let Xiao Tian call the maid service.


    "Why?" Xiao Tian inquired, "Don''t you want someone sweeping your yard and watering the nts?"


    "Because I want you to do that." Lian Xun repeated his words.


    "No way!" Xiao Tian refused instantly. "Why should I do that when I can pay people to do that?"


    Xiao Tian was the young master of a wealthy family in his past life, so he didn''t want to do that. in his view, it would ruin his good image if he did something like that.


    "If you don''t want to do that, then forget it." Lian Xun answered, "I won''t make a sword for you."


    "Hey! Why are you doing this to me?" Xiao Tian inquired, "Wouldn''t the result be the same? You just want someone to sweep your yard and water your nts, right? So it shouldn''t matter who does it."


    "No! I want you to do that." Lian Xun was firm in his stance.


    Xiao Tian didn''t say anything.


    ''Damn! This old man is so annoying! What a troublesome old man!''


    Xiao Tian cursed in his heart.


    "So, how is it?" Lian Xun inquired,


    Like before, Xiao Tian still didn''t say anything.


    "Little guy, just ept it." Lan Ruoxi said abruptly. "I will help youter."


    Xiao Tian turned his head towards Lan Ruoxi.


    "Really?" Xiao Tian was startled by her words.


    "Yes." Lan Ruoxi replied as she nodded her head.


    Xiao Tian then turned his head towards Lian Xun and spoke, "I agree with your condition."


    At first, he would not do that no matter what because it would look like he was Lian Xun''s servant, but he changed his mind when he found out that Lan Ruoxi would help himter.


    Sure, sweeping the yard and watering the nts was troublesome, but if he was apanied by a beautiful maturedy like Lan Ruoxi, it was not a bad idea too.


    Lian Xun could only sigh after seeing Xiao Tian''s behavior.


    ''Someday, his behavior can be a boomerang for him.''


    In his view, liking a woman too much was a bad idea.
