He bypassed noon and went to the backyard, which was about thirty square meters in size.

There was a simple pull-up bar, two stone locks, a barbell made of stone, and a sandbag hanging from a tree.

He first did thirty pull-ups, and keenly noticed that today the pull-ups felt much easier than usual. Frowning, he immediately sped up his movements and did a hundred pull-ups in one go, surprisingly without any effort.

That would have been impossible just yesterday.

Next, he did eighty push-ups, also with ease.

David Sutton stood up and looked down to check his body.

It seemed like nothing had changed, but at the same time, it felt like a lot had changed.

His strength had clearly increased a lot compared to yesterday, and his stamina had also improved.

And then there was the sudden growth spurt today... David Sutton couldn't help but recall that strange dream from last night, and in the dream, the sun hanging in the sky like an eye. Could it be that this series of changes was related to the Eye of Tenggen?

David Sutton was puzzled and tried the barbell and sandbag again.

The stone locks on both ends of the barbell originally weighed about a hundred jin.

Previously, it was just the right weight for practice. But today, the barbell was obviously much lighter. When hitting the sandbag, his footwork was much faster, and his flexibility had also improved a lot compared to yesterday. David Sutton had learned boxing and martial arts before. But in the past, due to his physical limitations, he couldn't use many techniques, whereas now, he could use them with ease.

Something was wrong, definitely wrong.

David Sutton felt a bit afraid. He vaguely guessed that this series of changes was probably related to that Eye of Tenggen. He had to figure out what the Eye of Tenggen was as soon as possible! Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to control the changes in the future.

"Ami, come try on these clothes."

Just as David Sutton was feeling panicked, Miss Lane called out from the front yard.

"Coming!"

David Sutton quickly shook his head, tossing away the distracting thoughts.

When the cart reaches the mountain, there will be a way. Now that he knew the strange name inside his body, it should be much easier to investigate.

He quickly walked to the front yard and saw Miss Lane holding a set of clothes.

"These are clothes I made for your father before he went to Tianzhu, but he never got the chance to wear them.

I was planning to give them to you in a couple of years when you grew taller, but... Hurry and try them on, see if they fit. If not, I'll alter them."

David Sutton showed a simple, honest smile and took the clothes without another word, putting them on in front of Miss Lane.

He was very handsome, and with that honest smile, he gave off a cute and endearing feeling that made people like him.

"Mom, they fit perfectly."

"As long as they fit, as long as they fit!"

A look of relief appeared on Miss Lane's face as she stepped forward to straighten David Sutton's collar.

"By the way, go to Sun's shop later and buy two mattresses.

The spring chill in Chang'an is harsh, and it gets cold at night. Since someone is renting our house, we should take good care of them."

"I got it!"

David Sutton replied with a smile, then put on his boots.

"I'm heading out then."

"Remember to come back for lunch at noon. I made flatbread and tofu soup for you."

"I know!"

David Sutton agreed and left on his own.

Leaving the house, David Sutton walked along the alley and crossed the stone bridge over the river.

As he reached the bridgehead, the back door of Lingbao Temple opened.

A pretty nun came out carrying a bucket of water. When she saw David Sutton, she smiled and waved at him.

"Ami, are you going to the yamen for duty?"

She spoke as she carried the bucket forward.

David Sutton hurried a few steps to catch up with the pretty nun, reached out to take the bucket, and poured the dirty water into the roadside ditch.

"Sister Ruth, I'm off today."

"I told you not to call me Sister Ruth. Now that I'm a nun, you should call me by my Dharma name."

David Sutton smiled, put the bucket down at the back door of the temple, pressed his palms together and said, "Sister Grace, I'm off today."

Chapter 7 Sister Grace

"How is your mother doing?"

At this time, the morning prayers in the temple had ended.

Sister Grace didn't seem very busy, so she started chatting with David Sutton.

David Sutton said, "Thank you for your concern, Master. My mother has been in good health lately."

"Good, that's good." Sister Grace smiled slightly, picked up the bucket, and walked into the temple.

"Ami, spend more time with your mother when you can. I heard from her that you're always busy and rarely home, and she doesn't even know what you're busy with.

That job with the constables... I heard it's very dangerous, so you must take care."

"I know, I'll be careful."

"Alright, I need to get back to my duties. If your family has any difficulties, come find me. Don't let your mother worry."

"Ami understands."

Sister Grace closed the door, leaving David Sutton standing there alone.

Looking at the tightly closed temple gate, David Sutton suddenly felt a sense of absurdity in his heart.
