"The Cao Clan?" Jia Yuyan was confused by that. "I know you have issues with Leng Hua and the Leng Clan, but you shouldn't have t Cao Ren or the people from his clan, right? How could you have issues with them?"
"Why are you so naive?" Zhang Xiaolong [3]'s question made them all frown. "All of you already know the character of the Cao Clan, right? You already know about the effects of my pills, and Cao Ren had such enormous ambitions to take over this realm from the Tian Clan. Do you think he will keep quiet if I open my shop? I do have the power to protect myself, but I still need so backers to help in this realm. I could persuade so clans in the city to help , but I don't think that would be a good idea since they are his targets. Since you guys want to have a relationship with , I want you all to be my backers in this realm, and I will give my pills to so of your younger generations. Isn't that a mutually beneficial solution?
"I agree with that." Ren Shuo spoke imdiately. "We have experienced significant improvents after Yuyan gave us this kid's pills, so we don't need to doubt that his pills are valuable and beneficial to us. Moreover, all of you have witnessed his actions just now, and none of you can move under his pressure."
Zhu Ru imdiately added. "Additionally, we all know that this kid is the chosen successor of the ten-tailed fox, so cooperating with him and helping him is the best choice for our races."
"How many pills can you give us?" Qian Chaoying suddenly asked.
'This guy is the greediest among the others! Xian Lianghua is much better than him!' Zhang Xiaolong [3] answered him straightaway. "Have you ever heard the saying, 'Don't bite off more than you can chew,' Old Elf?"
"You—"
"I think Qian Li is your son, right?" Qian Chaoying frowned at Zhang Xiaolong [3]. "I don't have any problems with him, at least for now, but I can sense his hostility and killing intent toward , which is due to his jealousy of ."
Hearing that, Qian Chaoying and the others turned to Ren Xiyi, especially since they knew that Qian Li had always wanted her as his wife, causing her to lower her face.
Zhang Xiaolong [3] imdiately spoke to Qian Chaoying again. "A man who cannot control his jealousy and let it overco him is the most stupid, and he is not worthy of any woman. Furthermore, Xiyi and I are new acquaintances, and we only t this morning, so his jealousy of is unfounded. If you don't want him to die, you should advise him to control himself, as I will never hesitate to kill everyone who chooses to be my enemy."
Qian Chaoying imdiately stood up from his seat, but Jia Yuyan swiftly restricted his movents and waved her hand, creating many Qi screens above them, all of which showed Zhang Xiaolong [3]'s past actions in several realms, including the Nine Stars Realm.
Zhang Xiaolong [3] briefly raised an eyebrow before smiling mischievously and teasing Jia Yuyan. "Hey, my lovely stalker, you should have co to directly if you were interested in , so you wouldn't have to go to all this trouble of monitoring and recording all my activities. Does this an you also watched dual cultivating with all my won?"
"Cough… Cough…" Ren Xiyi and the others, including Qian Chaoying, coughed heavily after listening to Zhang Xiaolong [3] say all that.
Jia Yuyan simply smiled and responded with a question. "Are you embarrassed?"
"Why should I be embarrassed?" Zhang Xiaolong [3] responded with a casual shrug. "I wouldn't mind if you wanted to watch us dual cultivate live, but I'm not sure if you have the ntal strength to hold yourself back. Otherwise, you'll succumb to temptation and join us, thus forfeiting your virginity to ."
'This kid is too brazen!' Everyone in the room silently scread in their hearts.
"Haha." Jia Yuyan softly laughed in response to that. "I am different from other elves, and I will never be tempted by such a thing."
"Is that so?" Zhang Xiaolong [3] smirked slightly and grabbed her hand. "How confident are you in your abilities?"
"One hundred percent."
"May I test your abilities with mine?"
"Sure." A second later, Jia Yuyan was shocked because her body instantly heated up, and her lust beca uncontrollable. 'What the hell? I always believed that my abilities could negate the effects of his lust demon abilities, but they still affected .'
Jia Yuyan wanted to pull her hand from Zhang Xiaolong [3]'s grasp, but a jolt of imnse pleasure imdiately flowed through her body, and her gaze beca soft when she looked at him, which was the effect of his transcendent demon touch and transcendent demon charm.
"Stop it." Jia Yuyan spoke in a deep voice, and her chest heaved up and down due to the effects of Zhang Xiaolong [3]'s abilities.
Jia Yuyan's reaction made them exchange shocked glances, especially since they had known her for so long. Moreover, she had shown her abilities when she first ca to the realm, so they knew that she was powerful and different from the others.
"Haha." Zhang Xiaolong [3] laughed and let go of Jia Yuyan's hands, but he didn't forget to use the dream lordship ability on her. "You finally realized that you were too confident in your abilities, right? You may co from the Paradise Realm, but I am entirely different from other humans, beasts, or demons. Your abilities may be able to negate their abilities, but so far only two won can negate mine, and the rest will be directly affected by them, including you."
Jia Yuyan imdiately tried to relieve the effects of Zhang Xiaolong [3]'s abilities, but they didn't disappear right away and continued to affect her.
"I still have so other abilities, and you'll fall straight into my arms if I use them on you." After experiencing so just now, Jia Yuyan no longer dared to underestimate Zhang Xiaolong [3]'s lust demon abilities. "So, what do you decide? Do you want to be my backer and help open a shop in the city outside?"
"I'm in!" Ren Shuo and Zhu Ru answered while raising their hands.
A female dryad suddenly spoke to Zhang Xiaolong [3]. "My na is Jing Shenlin, and I am willing to accept your offer, but I need at least five sets of your basic pills."
"Five sets, right?" Zhang Xiaolong [3] took out the amount and handed it to her, making her smile happily. "What about you, Senior Zhu?"
"Like Jing Shenlin, I only need five sets." Zhang Xiaolong [3] directly handed over the sa amount to Zhu Ru. "Thank you, kid."
"Don't mind it." Zhang Xiaolong [3] then turned to the others, including Qian Chaoying. "What about you guys?"
A male giant imdiately stood up and approached Zhang Xiaolong [3]. "My na is Ju Tan, Kid. I don't want to be greedy, but my race is only a few in this realm, and they're as strong as I am. If you are willing to help them, all of us will fully support you."
"How many mbers of your race are there?"
"Only twenty."
Zhang Xiaolong [3] nodded in understanding and took out twenty bottles before handing them to him. "I'm helping you not only because I need your help, but because I owe a debt to the ancestor of your giant race."
"Huh?" Ju Tan was confused by that. "Which ancestors are you referring to?"
Zhang Xiaolong [3] shook his head at him. "To be honest, I don't know her na myself, so I can't provide any information about her."
"I see." Ju Tan nodded in understanding. "Can you show her appearance in your mories?"
"Sure." Zhang Xiaolong [3] imdiately touched his forehead and shared the appearance of the female giant that he t in the final room of the Era of the Beginning.
*Bam*
The place shook as soon as Ju Tan fell onto his butt, and his expression was filled with shock after seeing the appearance of his ancestor, confusing them all, including Jia Yuyan. "How... how did you et her?"
"I t her soul by chance when I was stranded in that place." Ju Tan was confused by that because Zhang Xiaolong [3]'s only shared his ancestor's figure and didn't share anything else. "She gave valuable information, which is related to your giant race. However, she did not give it to for free, and she asked to help the giant race rise in return. Right now, I don't have the ability to go to that place, but I will definitely go there in the future, and I will fulfill my promise to her then."
"According to the history of our race, her na is Ju Potian, and she is the first female giant born in this universe." Ju Tan's reply shocked all of them.
"Is that woman really the first female giant born in this universe?" Another man with a body like a silver deer asked Ju Tian.
"Just like you and the others, my giant race also has information about our ancestors, Lu Yin. Therefore, there is no way I would mistake her identity, and she is indeed the first female giant born in this universe, Ju Potian. According to the past history, she was much stronger than her husband, Ju Zhutian, and she led all natural races to the peak of glory in the past." Ju Tan imdiately knelt down on one knee in front of Zhang Xiaolong [3], causing Jia Yuyan and the others to fall dumbfounded. "Since she chose you to help us revive our race, my fellow race mbers and I will follow you, and we will use all our strength to support you."
"Please get up; I never liked this kind of formality. Moreover, you are much more senior than , so you can act casually with ." Ju Tan nodded and stood up imdiately, while Zhang Xiaolong [3] distributed his basic pills to Lu Yin and the others based on their requests, providing about three to five bottles for each person.
Zhang Xiaolong [3] then looked at Qian Chaoying. "How much do you need? I will give you as much as you want, but I forbid you from giving it to Qian Lin as long as he still behaves like that toward . As I said before, you better not lie to because I will know the truth, and it will be my last gift to your race if you dare lie to ."
'Sigh! I have to talk to my son later.' Qian Chaoying answered him imdiately. "I only need five bottles, and I won't give them to my son."
"I hope you keep your word." After he handed them to Qian Chaoying, Zhang Xiaolong [3] imdiately bade them farewell. "I have an appointnt with Tian Jiantang and Qing Yun, so I have to go now, but I will definitely co back here soon."
"Wait!" Jia Yuyan stopped him. "I still want to talk to you, so I will co with you."
Zhang Xiaolong teased her. "Have you fallen for and don't want to part with now, my stalker?"
"Stop talking nonsense and leave now!"
Jia Yuyan's shout started the others. 'She lost her composure!'
"Hahaha!" Zhang Xiaolong [3] opened a portal and brought Jia Yuyan away from her hut straightaway.
"I will et the mbers of my race right now to convey my decision." Ju Tan didn't wait for their answer and left the hut, as did Qian Chaoying, who imdiately followed him.
"Hahaha." Ren Shuo suddenly laughed. "Hey! All of our races will definitely change soon, and I think their future will be bright if we follow that kid."
Zhu Ru nodded in agreent with that. "I agree with you, but I'm still curious about how and where that kid t Ju Potian."
"Think back to the history of our race. Ju Potian was not only the leader of the giant race, but she was also the leader of all the natural races in the past. Her nickna was the Sky-Shattering Giant, and her strength was so imnse that even the heavens did not dare to punish her." They nodded in agreent with Lu Yin, as they were also familiar with her story. "During the era when she led our races, all humans, beasts, demons, and winged races did not dare to touch our natural races. Even so, she was not a tyrant or a cold-blooded killer, and she only killed those who tried to harm us. Most importantly, she treated all natural races fairly, which made our races prosperous at that ti."
Jing Shenlin then spoke to them. "Unfortunately, the disaster that appeared in her era destroyed not only our race but also the other races, and the universe changed completely after their deaths. Since then, many great people have erged from the other races, but our races have never again produced soone as powerful as her, and since then we have beco weaker than them."
"What exactly was the disaster that occurred in that era? Why isn't there a single ntion of it?" Zhu Ru and the others sighed heavily in response to Ren Shuo. "Hehe! We don't need to rember the past anymore, and we just need to focus on the future. I don't know what will happen to our races in the future, but I'm sure that kid will bring us to be much better in the future. Even so, we can't just rely on him, and we have to continue to increase our strength, especially our young generation."
Jing Shenlin walked straight out. "I'll go back now, and I'll give these pills to them."
" too." They all imdiately left Jia Yuyan's hut.
Ren Xiyi, who was walking beside her father, imdiately asked a question. "Do you think Zhang Xiaolong [3] can really bring our races back to our glory, Father?"
"Phew." Ren Shuo exhaled softly. "Your father isn't a fortune teller, okay? I don't know what will happen in the future, but I'm sure I didn't misjudge him, and we will find out the outco soday in the future. Do you really like Qian Lin?"
"I don't know!" Ren Xiyi imdiately ran away from her father, making him shake his head.

"Young master, where have you been? We have been frantically looking for you since morning." Qing Dongya imdiately asked as soon as Zhang Xiaolong [3] and Jia Yuyan arrived at the residence.
Tian Yiyuan also spoke to him. "Young master, please leave a ssage for us if you have any urgent matters."
"I understand that the leaders of your two clans assigned both of you to assist , but I have my own personal matters, and I'm not obligated to share my private affairs with anyone, including you two." Qing Dongya and Tian Yiyuan wanted to say sothing, but Zhang Xiaolong [3] fiercely glared at them, forcing them to swallow back their words. "Let's go in, Yuyan."
'You two need to stop bothering him, or you'll suffer yourselves.' Jia Yuyan imdiately followed Zhang Xiaolong [3] into the residence, and the two maids right away returned to their posts. "Why are you so rude to them?"
Zhang Xiaolong [3] turned to her. "Tian Jingxuan and Qing Huang place them here to monitor , and I never liked such a thing. Actually, I wanted to find another place to live, but I'll look for it tomorrow. So, what do you want to talk to about now?"
"Where did you et Ju Potian? Why did she want you to help the giant race rise again?" Zhang Xiaolong [3] raised an eyebrow, forcing Jia Yuyan to explain. "I don't have any other intentions, and I myself would be happy if the giant race could rise again, especially since they are the strongest among all the natural races. Unfortunately, their numbers are too few now, and I think their total in the entire universe is no more than a hundred thousand."
"Only a hundred thousand of them?"
"Yes." Jia Yuyan nodded at him. "My domain is almost a quarter of the total of the upper realms, but there are only ten thousand giants there."
"How can there be so few of them?" Zhang Xiaolong [3] asked with a frown.
