After returning from Abyss City, Chu Xiu's life finally entered a rare period of peace.
In the morning, he would wake up to the dawn light, and upon opening the door, the aroma of buns and dough sticks that his mother bought would waft through the air.
Sometimes, when his mother hurried to work and didn't buy them, he would take some change from the small bag by the door, head down to the small shop downstairs to order some freshly made rice rolls, add two eggs, sprinkle a bit of soy sauce, and sit by the roadside, watching the busy people coming out of the buildings one by one, eating the steaming rice rolls leisurely.
Although the occasional blare of car horns was a bit annoying, compared to the perilous abyss, this minor noise was nothing at all.
Of course, Chu Xiu didn't just idle away.
When his parents weren't around, he would enter the abyss to hone his combat skills and the proficiency in controlling the Blood Demon Incarnation.
