"I’m only speaking the truth, if one’s talent is insufficient, they must rely on diligent cultivation to make up for the lack of innate gifts!"
The elder curled his lip as he spoke.
"Senior Xuan Ji is right, I will definitely work hard in my cultivation and not let down the guidance you offered in the beginning."
The War God nodded in agreent.
"You old coot, you’ve finally decided to show up. You were worried about your precious apprentice, weren’t you?"
Elder Shi said, a smile playing at the corners of his mouth.
"Aren’t you worried as well? It seems that boy has already hooked up with your granddaughter. If sothing happens to him, your granddaughter will end up a widow!"
The elder said with a smiley look.
"With you here, what do I have to worry about? You probably care about that kid’s life and death even more than I do."
"You’re still the sa as ever, haven’t changed a bit."
The elder shook his head, flipped his palm, and a black hamr suddenly appeared in his hand, engraved with all sorts of strange and mysterious patterns, emitting an aura of mystery.
"I’ll give you this Sky-shocking Hamr, with it, your combat power will increase by a great deal, so there should be no problem in keeping that kid safe," said the elder, looking at the War God.
"A top-grade spiritual artifact, you really are generous!"
Elder Shi’s eyes swept over the hamr and flashed a hint of surprise.
"It’s just a top-grade spiritual artifact. If I took out sothing even more powerful, wouldn’t you be surprised to death?" the elder said, a mysterious smile directed at Elder Shi.
Elder Shi’s gaze sharpened as he watched the elder: "You actually have a treasure artifact too. It seems I really don’t know you at all. Where in the world did you spring from with such terrifying strength and knowledge in artifact refining and alchemy? I’m starting to doubt you’re even from Earth."
"Who I am, you’ll find out eventually," said the elder, tossing the black hamr in his hand to the War God. The latter hurriedly caught the hamr, but when he caught it, his body trembled, and his hands sank sharply.
The War God’s expression changed imdiately, revealing a shocked look in his eyes. The hamr was indeed extrely heavy; the War God had to circulate his True Yuan quickly to withstand the hamr’s strength.
"Old man, here’s an elixir for you as thanks for having such a beautiful granddaughter for that boy to take as a wife," the elder declared, pulling out a dark, unprepossessing elixir and tossing it to Elder Shi.
Elder Shi caught the elixir, sniffing the strange sll emanating from it, and looked doubtfully at the elder: "This isn’t just so dirt you’ve scraped off your body, is it?"
"You really don’t recognize a good deed, do you? If you don’t want it, just give it back. It’s an elixir I painstakingly refined to treat your internal injuries."
"After consuming it, the internal injuries in your body will no longer be a big issue, and your strength may even increase significantly. I wouldn’t give this to just anyone," grumbled the elder.
"My granddaughter’s been whisked away by your disciple, what’s wrong with giving an elixir? Consider it a betrothal gift," said Elder Shi, chuckling as he pocketed the elixir.
"Alright, I’m off, goodbye, and don’t tell that kid I was here."
After speaking those words, the elder’s figure vanished instantly, as if he had teleported away.
"This old codger cos and goes without a trace every day, quite the mystery indeed!" Elder Shi shook his head.
"Elder Shi, to what extent do you think Senior Xuan Ji’s strength has reached? The Void Shattering Realm?"
The War God squinted, his eyes sparking as he spoke.
"I don’t know. It’s probably not the Void Shattering Realm. It doesn’t feel like it to . His strength likely goes beyond the limits of this world. His identity is even more enigmatic, giving the feeling that he is not from this world."
"Not from this world? Could it be soone from the Martial Realm?"
The War God’s expression changed, and a hint of shock flashed across his eyes.
"I don’t know, for now, go ahead and assimilate that Heaven-Shocking Hamr!"
Elder Shi said to the War God.
anwhile, Ye Luo was naturally unaware that his master, the old man, had arrived in Capital City, as he had already returned to the villa. Just in ti, Qin Yuru had finished work and co back.
"Wife, I’ve missed you terribly!"
Seeing Qin Yuru, Ye Luo imdiately went up and gave her a big hug.
"Be careful, don’t hurt the baby."
Qin Yuru hastily said.
"Don’t worry, it won’t happen. My child will definitely be born safely, grow up, and beco as suave and handso as his dad. Then he’ll bring a whole bunch of daughters-in-law," Ye Luo said with a grin.
"You are such a bad influence on kids. What if it’s a girl? Are you also going to want her to bring ho a bunch of n or marry a man with other won?"
Qin Yuru looked at Ye Luo with interest.
"Of course not. My daughter must marry the strongest man in the world, and he can only be good to my daughter; otherwise, I’ll make him regret it," Ye Luo huffed.
"You really are the type to think it’s okay for officials to start fires but not for the common people to light lamps!"
"But don’t worry, wife. You’re definitely carrying a boy," Ye Luo said with a mischievous look at Qin Yuru.
"How do you know that?" Qin Yuru asked, startled.
Ye Luo smiled mysteriously; he had naturally used his Clairvoyant Eye and knew she carried a boy.
"It’s a secret. You’ll find out later," Ye Luo smiled, choosing not to reveal the matter of the Clairvoyant Eye just yet, as it was still not the right ti to disclose this secret.
Seeing Ye Luo wouldn’t say, Qin Yuru didn’t press further. She then said, "By the way, Hu Haoming has already arrived at Qin Group. I’ve had him join the Qin Clan to start getting accustod to it slowly."
"Also, he has transferred all his assets and capital from Tianhe Group into Qin Clan. I’ve given him ten percent of the shares."
"Mm, that’s good. This way, we can better secure this talent. Look, if there’s no issue with him, leave the main matters of Qin Clan to him to handle. You can retire behind the scenes and focus on your pregnancy, making sure our child grows up healthy and chubby," Ye Luo said as he gently stroked Qin Yuru’s slightly bulging belly with a tender expression. He was also sowhat eager to witness the birth of his child.
"You’re back!"
At that mont, Situ Luoyun walked in from outside, looking at Ye Luo with a bit of surprise in her eyes.
"You talk to Luoyun for a bit; I’m going to rest!"
Qin Yuru said as she headed inside.
"Did you miss ?"
Ye Luo walked over to Situ Luoyun with a devilish smile.
"What’s there to miss about you," Situ Luoyun said, giving Ye Luo a reproachful yet affectionate glance.
"Oh, so you dare say you didn’t miss ? I need to punish you with a kiss!"
Ye Luo hugged Situ Luoyun and kissed her on the lips.
