Yang Chen had returned to the Dragon villa and was greeted by Wang Ma without any sign of Ruoxi at home since he worked.
After eating some of the food Wang Ma had prepared, Yang Chen headed to his room.
Yang Chen then made the Fountain of Youth appear in his hand and thought. 'After thinking about it for some time I realized that if I did not want to remain an Immortal, I could take out the Immortal Assassin weapon from the Gate of Babylon and end my life. But I hope it will never happen because I don't think I will spend eternity alone. '
Yang Chen then smiled as he thought of Rose before finally deciding on her choice.
Yang Chen then downed the Fountain of Youth before making the cup disappear.
"Hmm, it tastes like strawberries, but I don't feel anything ..." But before Yang Chen finished, he fainted and fell on his bed.
After a few minutes, Yang Chen woke up and felt something different, especially in his cultivation.
Yang Chen felt his cultivation soar to a whole new level after drinking the Fountain of Youth.
'So, this is what it feels like to reach the ninth stage of the Endless Recovery Scripture, named Rebirth.' Thought Yang Chen, as he circulated his True Qi throughout his body.
(AN: The kind of BS I know, but I don't want him to get it the same way as the original Yang Chen in the novel.)
'Although I have reached the Full Xiantian cycle and drank the Fountain of Youth, I still have the main weakness that is my soul.' Thought Yang Chen and was pondering what he should do, before having any ideas.
Yang Chen then made a soul cultivation manual appear in his hand and thought. 'This technique will not only make my soul stronger but will also make me see the souls of others and if I wish, can destroy them only if they are weaker than mine.'
Yang Chen then sat down on his bed, lotus position, and began to cultivate his new technique.
After a few hours, Yang Chen opened his eyes.
'I can feel my soul getting stronger than before, but I must continue cultivating because it can still be damaged or destroyed.' Thought Yang Chen.
Yang Chen then started thinking about his cultivation. 'Now that I have reached the full cycle, I feel that I can reach the Soul Formation Stage because I feel no resistance. Is it because, I drank the Fountain of Youth? '
As Yang Chen continued to squeeze his head with more questions, his stomach creaked.
"I should probably eat something because I haven't had dinner yet and I'm pretty hungry." Yang Chen said as he decided to go downstairs for dinner with Wang Ma and Ruoxi.
When Yang Chen got off, he saw Ruoxi sitting on the sofa, watching a Korean drama and he just stared at her.
'I can see three souls with Rouxi, though one is slightly weaker than the other two. The first two must be Ruoxi and Seventeen and the weaker must be Athena. He must have recovered since his God force was only around 20% at the moment. ' Thought Yang Chen as he continued to stare at Ruoxi.
Ruoxi who saw Yang Chen descend down and started to look at him, felt embarrassed and slightly blushed while saying coldly.
"What?"
"Nothing." Yang Chen said clearly and sat down on the sofa next to Ruoxi and waited while watching TV as Wang Ma had not finished making dinner yet.
Ruoxi moved a little further away from Yang Chen and coldly asked. "By the way, I haven't had a chance to ask you, did you get a job in the office?"
Yang Chen only looked at Ruoxi and nodded before returning to watch TV.
There is silence between the two because you can only hear the TV.
Ruoxi looked like if she wanted to say something before deciding to finish it and say it.
"Hey, Yang Chen?" Ruoxi said in a low voice.
"Hm?" Yang Chen hummed in response as he turned to look at her.
"That night, why did you .."
"Eat night is ready!" Wang Ma who came out of the kitchen said from the dining table.
"Good." Yang Chen said to Wang Ma before turning to Ruoxi and asked.
"Sorry, what are you saying?"
"No, it's okay." Ruoxi said somewhat disappointed that she could not ask what was on her mind lately.
The two of them went to the dinner table and dinner with some talk that was mostly from Wang Ma.
After finishing dinner, Yang Chen helped Wang Ma wash the dishes before heading to his room.
Yang Chen then brushed his teeth before going to bed as tomorrow would be a busy day.
(Morning of the Next Day)
Yang Chen woke up feeling refreshed and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
After he finished his bath, he put on a black suit and went downstairs for breakfast.
When Yang Chen went down, he saw Ruoxi and Wang Ma were having breakfast, so he joined them.
While they were having breakfast, Yang Chen suddenly said.
"By the way, I won't be able to go home tonight."
"Is there any business, young master?" Wang Ma asked.
"No, just overnight at a friend's place." Yang Chen replied with a slight smile, thinking of Rose.
"Friends?" This time it was Ruoxi who replied with her usual cold tone.
"Yes friend, friend . . . Women." Yang Chen said somewhat awkwardly as he did not want to lie.
Suddenly the atmosphere turned cold and Ruoxi turned to Wang Ma.
"Wang Ma, I'm full so I'm going to work."
"But young lady, you just touched your plate." Wang Ma said anxiously.
Ruoxi ignored Wang Ma and went to her car to go to work.
Yang Chen was unaffected by the mood just continued to eat his breakfast.
When Ruoxi left, Wang Ma turned to Yang Chen and said with his usual caring tone.
"Young Master, you should be better than young miss."
"Whatchu mean? Does one not repay kindness with kindness?" Yang Chen said.
Wang Ma understood what Chen meant and said with a smile. "I know young lady can .. sometimes a handful, but she's a good-natured girl. Trust me, I raised her, so please try to be more gentle with her."
Yang Chen did not respond and remained silent for some time before returning to his breakfast.
Wang Ma only smiled when he knew what he was going to do.

When Ruoxi was on her way to work, she thought in a bad mood. 'Why am I so angry now. She can do whatever she wants, not like we're really married and what friends mean. He even sounded rather happy when he said it as well. '
Ruoxi then thought of the time, Yang Chen gave her a glutinous rice ball and covered it with a blanket while she was sleeping.
'What I think, it's not like he's doing it with any motivation.' Ruoxi thought.
(AN: Anime Harem protagonist?)
"Huh .. I'm tired and still hungry. I shouldn't have missed breakfast." Ruoxi sighed tiredly as she said.
(Pov Yang Chen)
Yang Chen managed to get to his office to finally open his official business. The company will be called.
His business will sell all tech-related items like phones, computers, etc, but it is a little better than the others out there, and a product that will make his company the most influential in China before going all over the world.
He was not worried about people moving illegally as his staff were all former veterans of the albatross team which was one of Yang Chen's mercenary groups, excluding his troops and navy. And if anyone who had supernatural powers or cultivators tried to interfere, well let's say Yang Chen wouldn't stay silent.
After the company made the advertisement earlier, many people from large families decided to try out Yang Chen's self-healing bracelet and when they did, they were shocked.
A broken arm, an injury that takes weeks to heal, will only take a few days with a healing bracelet.
Yang Chen's self-healing bracelet sold out instantly on the market. Although Yang Chen had an unlimited supply of them, he did not want to look suspicious so he released a limited amount.
Yang Chen and his company were busy all day.
When Yang Chen was done with the work, he decided to visit Rose, as he had not seen her all day.
