still boldly responded to Lianyi's words."Gurgling" sounds came from the little girl's stomach, causing a moment of awkward silence."You bandits rob people just to fill your own bellies!"Ripple raised..."I'll go take a look."

Ripple smiled and answered, then followed the butler to the arranged guest room.

Because Lianyi resembled the standard features of the Du family, and he looked like General Du in his youth, he quickly integrated into the Du family.

General Du and his wife had two sons and one daughter. Du Yi was the only daughter and the youngest. She was fifteen or sixteen years younger than her two older brothers. Because of her poor health, she rarely went out and mostly stayed at home. After their adulthood, her two brothers joined the army one after another.

Lao Da Du Zixian inherited his father-in-law's position in the Third Army Group and is now General Du. He is married with one son and one daughter. His son is about the same age as Lian Yi, and his youngest daughter is only five years old.

Lao Er Du Zifeng is a technical expert, belonging to the group with the highest IQ in the United Empire. He is responsible for mecha research and development and has made great contributions to the upgrading of mechas. He is currently researching how to upgrade mecha hardware and is almost always at work. He is currently single.

In the original's limited memory, he had only seen his cousin once, and it was just a quick greeting. And now, one-third of all the equipment in this room was provided by Du Zifeng.

A ripple of a smile graced her face as she directed the intelligent robot to arrange items according to her wishes. She then powered it on and connected it to her own neural implant, allowing Ian to monitor her vitals at any time.

After spending half a day getting everything ready, Ripples went to see her grandfather and grandmother.

"Grandfather, Grandmother, thank you for the equipment you prepared for me. I'm about to start repairing my suppressed physique and will need to sleep for a while. I told you this in advance because I'm afraid you might be worried."

Ripple smiled and said.

"Lian Yi, let go and do it! The data you provided me, I showed your uncle, he said you indeed have room for improvement. So all those equipment are tailor-made for you, they should help you."

"I understand, with Ian helping me monitor in real time, he'll alert you immediately if there are any issues."

After Relay finished explaining everything, he returned to his own room and came to the hibernation pod.

At this time, the hibernation chamber is already filled with golden liquid. This is a military-grade high-level nutrient solution that can quickly provide the body with the necessary nutrients and energy, suitable for physical fitness recovery.

The ripples didn't rush to break open her sea of consciousness. She needed to repair her physique and enter a state of cultivation before she could open it. Once the sea of consciousness was opened, she would have spiritual energy. As she leveled up, her spiritual energy would also increase exponentially. It's easier to explain that way.

After taking off her clothes, Ripple lay down in the cryosleep chamber. The golden liquid covered her body, the chamber lid slowly closed, and Ian's voice echoed in her ear:

"Master, please empty your mind and now enter sleep mode."

Then the room fell silent, only the flashing numbers on the cryochamber cover proving that someone was inside.

General Du was still uneasy and decided to visit Lian Yi with his wife. He found Lian Yi's expression calm and his vital signs stable, even gradually improving. This put their minds at ease.

Seven days later, Ripples was awakened by Ian. When she left the cryochamber, she discovered that a whole compartment of high-grade nutrient solution had been completely absorbed by her body.

Ripples moved her fist, feeling a stiffness in her body. She knew it was because the nutrient solution entering her body hadn't been fully absorbed yet. After washing up and changing her clothes, she went to see her grandparents.

Two elderly people looked at their energetic grandson, and smiles appeared on their faces.

"Lian Yi, how are you feeling"

"It feels so good, the best I've ever felt. My whole body feels much lighter."

As the ripples spoke, it transmitted bodily data to General Du through the intelligent brain.

"This is my latest body data."

The old man nodded repeatedly after looking at the data with his smart brain:

"Your current physical fitness level has reached the minimum standard. Do you still need to continue improving your physical fitness"

"Yes, I still need to continue improving. I feel like my physique still has room to grow."

Don't rush to achieve quick results. Forcing your body to improve rapidly in a short period of time can leave hidden injuries. You should take a gradual approach.

As a veteran, General Du immediately began imparting his experience.

"Grandfather, don't worry. I stopped because the nutrients in my body weren't being fully absorbed. Over the next period, I will be practicing ancient martial arts to help my body adapt to this intensity of training and absorb the nutrients fully. Then, I'll move on to the next stage of improvement."

Ripple also sent her self-improvement plan to the old general.

"Good, very good!"

After talking about his physical condition, the old general paused for a moment before speaking:

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Your father has taken Wu Lianbo with him as agreed. He did not marry Xue Wenjing, so you can withdraw your application.

"Great!"

Her face remained calm, as if these people were irrelevant to her. She immediately instructed the AI to withdraw the request and change it to an application for remarriage in three years. Only then did she believe that these shameless individuals had been exposed.

General Du nodded, thinking that his grandson had indeed left a way out.

"Grandfather, I want to change my surname to my mother's. How do I apply for this"

Ripples smiled and asked.

"Lien Yi, for now, don't worry about it. Even if you don't change your surname, you are still a member of the Du family."

Then I'll wait until I'm an adult, and by then I won't need parental consent or Wu Yishan's consent.

Ripple said it was final.

You are a thoughtful child, you decide for yourself.

The old lady smiled and said.

After some casual chat, and accompanying the two elders for lunch, Lianyi went straight to the training room.

She first performed a set of qigong, fully mobilizing every muscle in her body to speed up the absorption of nutrients.

An hour later, the ripples were like being scooped out of the water, washing over her. After that, she sat down and began to meditate, hoping to draw qi into her body.

But the power system here is different from the cultivation world, it doesn't exist in the form of spiritual energy points. When she operates her mental method, she can only attract a kind of green gas.

After these gases enter the body of a ripple, they are consumed before even completing one cycle, and cannot be stored in the dantian at all.

Time cycled between Ripple Cultivation and nutrient solution baths. A year later, her physical quality had undergone a qualitative leap, entering the second level of ancient martial arts. At this time, she felt a bottleneck; it was time to take an advanced gene activator.

This is a normal operation for boys of the same age group, but when it came to Lian's turn, the stimulant she consumed was the highest grade right away. This carries a certain amount of risk, and the Du family is afraid that his body can't withstand the power of the stimulant.

So on the day that he took the stimulating fluid, both Du's parents and Du Zifeng gathered in Lian Yi's room.

This was the first time Lian Yi had met Du Zi Feng, his little uncle. The man was two meters tall, with broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and long legs. He probably just came from the research institute. He wore a simple white casual suit that made him look young and stylish.

He had a face similar to Lian Yi's, but with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses that gave him an air of being a well-educated scoundrel.

"Hi, Uncle, I'm Lian Yi."o do it.""Okay, boss!"Ripples got up and, with the four of them, directly left Zeng Hongliang's den.Zeng Hongliang stood by the window, watching the ripples take people away. Only then did his face ch...
