Living room.
On the sofa, Leng Wanbai was affectionately holding "Aunt’s" arm, looking very happy.
"Aunt," on the other hand, was scrutinizing Qin Shou, who was sitting across from her, with a sharp gaze.
"I’m Xiao Bai’s aunt, Leng Xinlan," Leng Xinlan said.
Qin Shou grinned widely, "Haha, hello Aunt."
Leng Xinlan nodded slightly, then her gaze turned steely.
"How did you and Xiao Bai et?
What does your family do?
What realm has your strength reached now?
What are your plans for being with Xiao Bai?
I heard your Beast Breeding talent is good, are you planning to beco a Beast Breeding Improvent Master after graduating?
Let remind you, not just anyone can enter the Long Family.
Also, as Xiao Bai’s aunt, I need to know about your financial situation..."
A barrage of questions ca pouring down, and the room instantly filled with a chilling tension.
This chill penetrated the body, climbing up Qin Shou’s spine and rushing straight to his crown, evoking a primal fear akin to confronting the universe’s most ferocious monster.
What a terrifying feeling—is this the legendary "death interrogation"?
Qin Shou couldn’t help but tremble.
Wait, you’re questioning your Long Family son-in-law. What does this have to do with , Qin Shou?
Realizing this, Qin Shou’s expression instantly returned to calm.
"Xiao Bai and I t in West City.
As for my family situation, you should’ve already investigated it thoroughly, there’s no need for to elaborate.
I just advanced to Vajra Nine Stars—you heard that right. From Vajra One Star to Vajra Nine Stars in less than two years, you won’t find a more exceptional talent than on Earth.
As for my plans, my first small goal is to beco Earth’s strongest man, Xiao Bai knows this too.
Also, Beast Breeding Improvent Master is just my side hustle.
My financial situation... well, that’s confidential. After all, wealth should not be flaunted. I certainly can’t tell you I own fifty Second-Level Nine-Star chas, five million Earth Core Energy Crystals, and a good amount of Cosmic Creature tal—that would only invite envy. I hope you can understand."
Leng Xinlan: "..."
No wonder they call him West City Qin Shou—he’s exactly as the rumors say: shaless to the extre, completely unbearable!
However...
Advancing to Vajra Nine Stars in less than two years—with such terrifying talent, perhaps in a few years even I won’t be a match for this kid...
Leng Xinlan glanced sideways at Leng Wanbai beside her, and a delicate smile appeared on her elegant face.
If they ever fight, and Xiao Bai decides not to marry him, for the future of the Long Family, even I might sacrifice myself... Ugh, what nonsense am I thinking?
In an instant, Leng Xinlan’s gaze softened, and a remarkably warm smile spread across her face.
"Hehehe, Xiao Qin, co over here so Aunt can take a good look at you. My, what a solid build—you definitely won’t let Xiao Bai suffer in the future..."
Qin Shou: "..."
Can’t you just talk normally?
What’s with pinching my thigh?
Hey, stop touching . If Xiao Bai weren’t here, I’d definitely make you pay...
Yes, I’d make you pay!
...
Monts later, Leng Wanbai couldn’t take it anymore. She rolled her eyes and pulled Leng Xinlan away.
"Aunt, how long are you planning to stay this ti?"
Taking advantage of the mont, Qin Shou shuffled his feet and slipped back onto the sofa.
An older woman, best not to ss with her, best not to ss.
Leng Xinlan didn’t seem to mind. She chuckled, "Actually, this ti I ca to check on you, little girl, and then I’ll head back to Monster Planet in a few days so I don’t have to deal with your grandpa nagging all the ti—he can drive crazy with it."
"Hehehe, Aunt, Grandpa’s been pushing you to go on blind dates again, hasn’t he?" Leng Wanbai teased.
Leng Xinlan sighed and nodded, "What else? You’ve found yourself a boyfriend, so the family is pressuring even more."
On the side, Qin Shou’s eyes lit up upon hearing this.
Being forced into blind dates?
Ah, fellow sufferers in this vast world!
Just as he was about to chi in, he saw Leng Wanbai smiling and hugging Leng Xinlan.
"Aunt, you’re also heading to Monster Planet? That’s perfect! We’re going too—let’s go together in a week."
"What? You’re..."
Leng Xinlan suddenly stood up, her expression changing.
"No way! Unless you reach the Unbreakable Realm, Monster Planet is too dangerous for you—you’re not allowed to go."
"Aunt, Grandpa already gave his approval, so it’s not up to you."
"You... fine, if the old man approved, there’s nothing I can do. Then we’ll go together.
But once we get there, you must listen to everything I say, and no wandering around. Monster Planet is nothing like Earth..."
"Got it."
...
Seven days later, Federation Main City.
Following Leng Xinlan out of the Transmission Room, Qin Shou experienced firsthand the grandeur of the Federation’s top city.
Skyscrapers thousands of ters tall everywhere, countless chas and beasts weaving through glass structures, ultra-modern elevators, villa zones floating in the air via magnetic levitation... all of this nearly blinded Qin Shou.
This was exactly his vision of a science fiction city!
West City, in comparison, was nothing short of a slum.
Taking public buses to get around—can you imagine?
Looking around at the ordinary cultivators on the streets, even they were clad in battle armor, carrying weapons, their overall power levels several tis higher than those of other cities.
Qin Shou observed everything, feeling puzzled once again.
The strength of Beast Cultivation Main City is on par with the Federation Main City, so why does it look so inferior on the surface?
Beside him, Leng Wanbai noticed Qin Shou’s thoughts.
"Beast Cultivation Main City is vast and sparsely populated, and because of the need to raise beasts, a large portion is forested, so it looks much less developed," she explained.
Qin Shou scratched his head, "Is that so?"
Leng Wanbai nodded, "Of course. The top forty-ranked cities are all similar. You, however, have been so focused on hunting monsters that you never had ti to visit these cities. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be so much like a country bump..."
