nThe others shook their heads as though they didn't do anything special.

n

"It was only Junior Elder who treated you, so you don't owe us anything.

"

nSenior Cutie declared his thoughts on this, and the others completely agreed with him.

nZhao Luo only smiled at them and then turned to look out of the window of his room.

n'They watched over me with worry, while, I was having that kind of dream.'

nZhao Luo felt ashamed but didn't blame himself any further as dreams weren't something that a person could control.

nZhao Luo gaped in the darkness for quite some time while Feng Ma, Si Chen, Big Bean, and Senior Cutie quietly looked at this handsome yet burdened face, enjoying the night breeze.

nThe serene atmosphere in the room continued for ten minutes or so, after which Zhao Luo turned around and Si Chen helped him to get back to his bed.

nZhao Luo sat on his bed and gave Big Bean an intense look. Big Bean who was sitting next to the bed on a chair couldn't help but twitch.

nZhao Luo was still unsure on how he should be addressing this giant fellow brother of his.

n'Big Bean?'

n'Giant?'

nZhao Luo rubbed his chin while Big Bean was confused by Zhao Luo's stare.

n'He is the one who defeated me?'

nBig Bean couldn't help but think as there was a stupid look on Zhao Luo's handsome face which was completely opposite to the ferociousness he had displayed during their fight.

n

"Savior...

"

nBig Bean mumbled as he couldn't take Zhao Luo's intense stare anymore.

nZhao Luo who was staring at Big Bean with wide eyes shook his head.

n

"Don't call me, savior. You already know my view. I only returned to you what was yours from the start. That is, your freedom belonged to you, and I just happen to be the one returning it.

"

nZhao Luo placed his palm on Big Bean's chest.

nIt was a moment when Big Bean felt a strong connection with this handsome man who was telling him about his beliefs.

n

"Brother.

"

nUnconsciously the word rolled out of big bean's mouth.

nZhao Luo removed his hand from Big Bean's chest and showed a bright smile.

n

"Brother Bean.

"

nZhao Luo said as the bonds of brotherhood between these outer disciples were getting stronger.

nSenior Cutie looked jealous as he watched Zhao Luo smiling at Big Bean.

nAfter this touching moment, Zhao Luo asked Big Bean something that he had been wanting to know even before falling into an unconscious state.

n

"What about your sister?

"

nZhao Luo asked Big Bean with a curious look.

n

"My sister...

"

nBig Bean suddenly furrowed his brows and sadness covered his face.

n

"After our parents died when I was 7, I had to take care of my 2 years old sister. Coincidentally the King of Mo Family had taken us in so we could serve his son, Master Mo Suo.

"

nBig Bean told Zhao Luo from the start.

n'What a tragedy.'

nZhao Luo understood that Big Bean had skipped many parts which would be the time after he had lost his parent and till he was picked up by the King of Mo family.

n

"At 18, I followed Master Mo Suo to the Sect while my sister was left behind at Master's mansion.

"

nBig Bean's eyes quivered as he remembered his sister's cute round face.

n

"It's been two years since then, and I have yet to see her. I don't know what hardships Master will make her go through when he returns.

"

nBig Bean told his worries to Zhao Luo while the others also listened to them.

n'He is 20?'

nZhao Luo couldn't believe while watching Big Bean's size.

nBig Bean's sister who was 15 was still working as a slave at Mo Suo's mansion while Zhao Luo's focus was on Big Bean's (body) size.

n

"Don't worry, I will get her freed.

"

nZhao Luo promised Big Bean after understanding the whole situation.

nA hopeful look appeared on Big Bean's face.

nIf it was someone else, even if he was royalty, Big Bean wouldn't have been hopeful, but Zhao Luo was different.

n'Not only is he strong but he is also cunningly smart. He will definitely be able to find a way.'

nBig Bean was assured of her sister's safety.

n

"What's your sister's name?

"

nZhao Luo asked Big Bean out of curiosity.

nIt was normal as if he had to free his sister from the shackles of Mo Suo's slavery, he had to make an exchange with Mo Suo and for that, he had to know her name.

n

"Ah, her name is Little Bean.

"

nBig Bean told with a wide smile as he loved his sister.

n

"Little bean...

"

nZhao Luo was shocked by the naming sense.

nBig Bean was still not a stretched-out name as Big Bean indeed looked like a bean just a muscular version of it but now his sister also had 'bean' in her name.

n

"Does she look like a bean too?

"

nFeng Ma mumbled in a soft voice.

nEven though his voice wasn't loud but in this quiet room, he was heard by everyone.

n

"What did you SAY?

"

nBig Bean shouted angrily causing Feng Ma to shiver on his spot.

n'He looks angrier than the time when he fought me.'

nZhao Luo felt happy for Big Bean's sister who cared for her sister so much that he was ready to crush Feng Ma just because he said that Big Bean's sister looks like a bean.

nBut Zhao Luo didn't know that it wasn't the case.

n

"What do you mean, 'too'. Do you think I look like a bean? Dare say it again?

"

nBig Bean questioned Feng Ma who was taking out his wine flask.

nOnly a sip of wine could help him stand against this giant calamity.

n

"Okay, Okay. Calm down, guys. We are all brothers, so it's okay to joke around a bit.

"

nZhao Luo patted Big Bean's shoulder who only got angry because Feng Ma was comparing him to a bean.

n

"Yes, little brother is right.

"

nSenior Cutie finally broke his silence and moved closer to Zhao Luo.

n

"What are you doing?

"

nZhao Luo questioned with a frightened look.
