The greatest opportunity for the Xuanyuan Sect lies in the Xuanyuan Sword.
After sorting through all the other opportunities, big and small, Qin Luo distributed them all.
Bai Wengang looked up at the grand ancient ruins before him and sighed, shaking his head, "I never expected you to give away so many opportunities so casually, Master Qin."
"And the order here is so well maintained too."
Beside him, Qin Luo shrugged and said, "It doesn’t matter. The greatest opportunity has already been secured by me and the young lady."
"As for the rest, it’s better to just distribute them."
"Maintaining order is thanks to the law enforcement officers and everyone’s self-discipline. I couldn’t have done it alone."
Hearing this, Bai Wengang looked at Qin Luo, confirming that he was serious, and then said, "Master Qin, did you know that ancient ruins have also appeared in other regions tonight?"
"And then?"
"And then..." Bai Wengang’s expression turned grave, "A series of brutal battles for opportunities broke out."
"Countless casualties."
He clenched his fists, his eyes filled with sorrow.
This was the most severe large-scale death event in modern times.
The revival of spiritual energy and the emergence of ancient ruins.
The struggle for opportunities...
Bai Wengang suddenly realized that they were living in an era of martial artists.
Due to the development of civilized society, he had gradually forgotten that this world was, at its core, a place where the strong preyed on the weak.
Cities like Demon Capital, Royal City, and others—both large and small—saw the appearance of ancient ruins.
Local factions, outside factions, and even hidden factions that had remained secluded in the world all emerged in full force.
Opportunities led to one death event after another.
Even law enforcement officers suffered heavy casualties tonight.
But in contrast, Jiang City...
Bai Wengang turned his head to look at the cheerful citizens of Jiang City, who were happily collecting their opportunities with their identification cards.
This...
This was almost too civilized for an era of martial artists.
Seeing Bai Wengang lost in thought, Qin Luo patted his shoulder to bring him back to reality, "Don’t overthink it."
"I can tell you care deeply for the people."
Bai Wengang sighed softly, "When I took on the role of the head of the Jiang City Alliance branch and the mayor of Jiang City, my goal was to develop Jiang City into something great."
"That’s a good thing," Qin Luo nodded with a smile. "Ask Old Bai Yunfeng to send over some good stuff, like defensive formations or something."
"After all... the ancient ruins are just the beginning."
"There’s a lot more we’ll have to deal with in the future."
Bai Wengang: ??
"What do you mean?"
Bai Wengang was stunned, then looked at Qin Luo in shock, "Master Qin, have you divined something?"
It was no secret that Qin Luo was skilled in divination.
If he said something like this, there must be a reason.
Qin Luo, however, made a gesture to keep quiet and looked at Bai Wengang meaningfully, "Heaven’s secrets cannot be revealed."
"Even the Heavenly Master has closed the mountain gates."
"Do you think I dare to say anything?"
Bai Wengang: !!
His pupils shook.
The Heavenly Master!?
He remembered that Mount Longhu had recently announced the closure of its gates, forbidding anyone from going up or down without orders.
So... something big really is about to happen!
Thinking this, Bai Wengang swallowed hard, his gaze firm.
No, I need to ask my grandfather for some formations!
He looked at Qin Luo with admiration in his eyes.
As expected of Master Qin, my idol!
In the distance, Su Muwan leaned against the car and shouted at Qin Luo, "Qin Luo, Qin Luo! Let’s go!"
She was eager to go back and experiment with the bronze cauldron!
Qin Luo waved, "Coming!"
...
Time passed.
At the Emperor Foundation.
"New guy, this is your room."
Huang Lingfeng led Lu Hongshen to an open dormitory.
"Okay."
"According to Brother Luo’s instructions, you’ll be staying here for now."
"Okay."
Huang Lingfeng frowned and stared at Lu Hongshen, asking again, "Do you understand?"
"...I understand."
Lu Hongshen shrank his neck, not daring to say otherwise. He looked at the single dormitory room with a sense of despair.
Who would have thought?
He, a transcendent immortal who had returned from another world, had expected to live out a domineering protagonist’s story.
But instead, his cultivation had plummeted.
Then, he was slapped several times by someone he thought was just an ordinary mortal.
And then...
His divine artifact, the bronze cauldron, was gone too.
Who could he even complain to about this?
Sigh.
The only regret was that he hadn’t fully grasped the true mysteries of the bronze cauldron.
All he knew was that it allowed him to enter a dream state for cultivation, where ten years in the dream was equivalent to one day in the real world.
This was the secret behind his rise to the rank of immortal in the Xuantian Realm!
Of course...
Setting aside the help the bronze cauldron had given him...
Lu Hongshen coughed lightly. His own talent was also part of his strength.
...
At the Su Family Villa.
Outside Su Muwan’s bedroom.
After the events had concluded and her reputation had grown once more, Su Muwan changed into her shark-themed pajamas, ready to sleep soundly.
Qin Luo adjusted Su Muwan’s collar and looked at her gently with a smile, "Goodnight, Muwan."
"Goodnight, Luo."
Su Muwan nodded softly.
However...
Although she was eager to test the abilities of the bronze cauldron immediately, when she saw Qin Luo’s retreating figure, a sense of reluctance suddenly welled up in her heart.
She seemed to think of something and softly called out, "Luo, wait a moment."
"Hmm?"
Qin Luo stopped and turned around, his face showing a gentle, puzzled smile, "What is it?"
He looked down at Su Muwan, whose eyes sparkled as if she were pondering something.
The next moment.
Su Muwan lowered her head slightly, her cheeks flushing with a faint blush, her heartbeat quickening unconsciously.
She took a deep breath.
Then, she shyly raised her head to look directly at Qin Luo, her eyes filled with anticipation, "Um... can I have a goodnight kiss?"
Qin Luo was momentarily stunned, then a smile spread across his lips.
He stepped forward and gently cupped Su Muwan’s face.
"Mmm..."
The kiss was as soft as a breeze, causing Su Muwan to rise on her tiptoes and wrap her arms around Qin Luo’s neck.
The shark tail on her pajamas wagged wildly.
She closed her eyes, savoring the gentle touch, her heart filled with sweet ripples.
After a while, they parted.
"Goodnight, Luo."
Su Muwan’s face was flushed as she whispered, a sweet smile blooming on her face.
"Goodnight."
Qin Luo smiled, and then...
He voiced his confusion.
"Aren’t you going to take back the bronze cauldron, Muwan?"
Qin Luo pointed at the bronze cauldron in Su Muwan’s hands.
In an instant, the dreamy atmosphere Su Muwan had been immersed in vanished. She snapped back to reality, her face reddening.
She glared at Qin Luo, "Go to sleep!"
Then, Su Muwan coughed lightly, "Oh, and by the way, have a good dream tonight."
Qin Luo: "?? Can I even control my dreams?"
He chuckled and shook his head as he walked away.
But halfway down the hall, he turned back to look at Su Muwan, who was about to enter her room, and asked, "Muwan, there’s something I don’t understand."
"What is it?"
Su Muwan turned around, her eyes filled with confusion.
Qin Luo spread his hands, his expression innocent, "Since we’re together, why don’t we sleep in the same room?"
Su Muwan was stunned.
"......"
She furrowed her brows.
Then...
A smile spread across her lips, and her eyes lit up.
"That’s right!"
