.
In the capital of the Dragon Kingdom, the sun was finally rising.
At that mont, on the roof of a tall building, two figures were sitting and chatting.
"Let them stay in my minor dinsion? Woman, do you think that's an orphanage or sothing?" said Ethan, not understanding the sudden idea of the dragon woman.
"Well, why not? After all, you basically have an entire unused world.
If we leave them like this, they risk getting into trouble sooner or later.
We might as well let them stay there so they can live in peace. I don't think they'll mind," she said.
Ethan could only shake his head.
"That's not the point. You can't just pick up random people and toss them into my minor dinsion like it's nothing.
We've already helped those two more than enough. They've been living on their own for a couple of years now, and continuing to do so won't be too hard for them.
There's no reason to bring them into my minor dinsion, where at most, in a century or two, they'll die," he said, reminding her that ti there passed much faster.
"We can teach them the cultivation," she said, refusing to back down.
Ethan really didn't know how to handle this woman.
In terms of maturity, she should surpass him, yet here he was, reasoning with her over sothing so simple.
He wondered how she had managed to surpass the mortal realm when she still harbored so many worldly emotions.
Having them wasn't wrong, but letting them cloud your judgnt was.
"Why not just teach them to cultivate out here? With our help, it won't take long for them to reach a decent level of strength to survive on their own, not that they need it, anyway," he said.
"Tch, and you say you always indulge my wishes. Look at you now; you can't even do sothing this simple?" she said, pouting.
"…"
Sothing simple? Since when had babysitting beco simple?
Ethan was really tempted to punish the dragon woman for all the trouble she was causing him.
"And it would be good for you too. After all, the brother isn't the only special one;
the girl has a unique physique as well.
If properly cultivated, she could reach the peak of the Spiritual Realm in a little over a thousand years," she said, referring to a discovery they had recently made.
After Ethan finished healing her, he tried to inspect her and discovered she indeed had a rather unique physique,
the White Orchid Physique.
The system classified the physique as rare, but since he didn't know much about it, he could only turn to Bai Yu, who was more experienced in this field.
She, hearing the Physique's na, was amazed, and imdiately rushed to examine Gao Lan's body.
She confird that it was indeed the White Orchid physique, an extrely beneficial physique for females.
According to her, there were two versions of this physique, one for each gender.
From what she had heard, people who had this physique in the past showed extraordinary progress in cultivation, and almost every one of them who lived long enough reached the peak of the Spiritual Rank,
the level of a superpower in the Celestial Plane.
Ethan wasn't as shocked to learn more about the physique as he was by the fact that they had encountered two people with rather rare physiques and abilities.
He wasn't sure if it was just a coincidence or sothing like divine providence, but that would imply soone's hand in all this.
As absurd as it sounded, if it were true, it ant soone had their eyes on him or on the events involving him and those that might involve him in the future.
Needless to say, none of these possibilities reassured Ethan, but for now, he had a more imdiate problem to deal with, convincing Bai Yu.
In the end, he sighed and said,
"I really don't understand why you're so determined to gather every talent you et, but if you decide to personally take care of them, then I suppose I can agree."
Bai Yu, who had been pouting, was happy upon hearing this and threw herself at him, hugging him tightly.
Ethan was certain that if it had been soone below the fifth rank, they would've definitely broken a few bones at best.
At worst…
Initially, he had planned to say sothing like, "You'll have to give up cola in exchange for this," but he had a feeling that would get him into trouble with her in the future.
Letting those two roam his minor dinsion wasn't really a big issue.
What bothered him was that if he did, he'd inevitably end up taking care of them in so way.
A sense of responsibility.
And he knew he didn't have ti for that, nor would she in the future once she ascended.
He simply thought that there was still so ti before he and she ascended to the Celestial Plane, and during that period, those two brats would grow enough to start walking their own path.
In the end, he left the task of asking them if they wanted to travel with them to Bai Yu. The two, though hesitant, accepted.
With that settled, Ethan also decided it was ti to investigate this continent further.
He intended to eliminate all hidden threats, and to do so, he would have to start here before moving to the other continent.
He also knew he had to check the Human Continent.
For all he knew, he might have unwittingly been unaware of the presence of this strange demonic Qi virus.
Just in case, he planned to check the Human Continent after finishing his work here.
With that, he moved into the skies above Tiān Shù City and once again released his spiritual sense over the entire continent, this ti focusing all of it solely on the Beast Continent.
An infinite stream of information flooded his mind, which his brain processed at an incredibly high speed.
At his current level, processing billions of pieces of information in seconds wasn't too complicated.
While cultivators didn't usually examine every single detail that entered their perception range, Ethan had decided to do so, as he wanted to detect even the smallest particle of demonic Qi in the air.
The process continued, and after a few seconds, he stopped, his gaze turning toward the Tree of Life at the center of the city.
"Is it just , or did it just react to my spiritual sense?"
