Qing Garden.

A first-class community in Tianyuan City.

The defense measures are strict and the spiritual energy is rich. A large spirit gathering array is set up throughout the community. Living here, you can enjoy the abundant spiritual energy that is difficult to feel in the outside world anytime and anywhere.

The vegetation coverage rate in the community is also very high, and most of the plants are magical flowers and herbs, and there are also various domesticated and docile animals roaming freely here.

It is extremely difficult for ordinary people to live here. Even if you are a cultivator, you can't live here without enough spirit stones or cultivation.

However, this community was developed by the Yuan family. Yuan Xi owns a large villa here, which is almost as large as a manor. Although it is located in the community, it is separated from other floors and villas and is independent of the outside world.

The car drove straight to the door of the villa. As Yuan Xi approached, the puppets on standby in the villa seemed to come alive in an instant. Some greeted him, some served him tea, and some even squatted down to change his shoes.

Although these are puppets, their faces and shapes are extremely natural and realistic, just like real people.

Since childhood, the people serving Yuan Xi were all puppets. These puppets were all made for him by his uncle Yuan San. They were very crude at the beginning, but as time passed, his uncle Yuan San became more and more adept at making puppets, and the puppets he made became more and more realistic.

Today, Third Uncle Yuan has become an expert in puppet making.

His original intention in making puppets was just to let these puppets play with his nephew.

Among them, the butler standing at the door to greet Yuan Xi is the most flexible and closest to humans among these puppets. He not only has a certain level of intelligence, but also has the cultivation level of the foundation-building period. He can take care of all aspects of Yuan Xi's life with literary means, and can use weapons to protect his safety with martial arts. He can be said to be a very versatile butler.

These puppets have been upgraded from generation to generation. Although their appearance has changed a lot, their core has not changed. After so many years of getting along with each other, Yuan Xi has developed a deep affection for these puppets.

"Uncle Hong, Aunt Lan." Yuan Xi greeted the two oldest puppets in the grade.

Uncle Hong is the housekeeper, Aunt Lan is the cook, and there are five other people, Ah Cheng, Ah Huang, Ah Lu, Ah Qing, and Ah Zi, who are responsible for taking care of the garden, cleaning, and so on.

Uncle Yuan was not good at naming. It just so happened that there were seven puppets that were originally made, so he named the seven puppets according to the colors of the rainbow: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, etc.

He refined Ah Hong's appearance to be more and more mature, and when he became an uncle, Yuan Xi called him "Uncle Hong". Ah Lan was originally the cook that Uncle Yuan San had high hopes for, but he himself was a novice in cooking, so naturally he could not refine a puppet with superb cooking skills.

Besides, cooking is a skill full of mysteries. It is not like doing experiments where you can be precise to a few grams. Even if he measures the various seasonings needed for cooking to a few grams and a few spoonfuls, the food he makes will still taste terrible.

In the end, he simply gave up and let Alan play freely.

Unexpectedly, after letting Alan give free rein to his creativity, the things he made turned out to be quite good, at least edible.

Somehow, Alan hooked up with Uncle Hong. In order to match Uncle Hong's appearance better, Alan asked Uncle Yuan to give her a more mature look.

Nowadays, even puppets are in love. As a bachelor who has been single for decades, Uncle Yuan is extremely envious and jealous. However, these puppets were created by him, just like his sons and daughters. How could he refuse his daughter's request?

After Alan changed his appearance, he and Uncle Hong looked like a married couple when standing together.

So Yuan Xi also changed his way of addressing her and called her "Aunt Lan".

This time I came to Tianyuan City because there were signs of the emergence of a secret realm here. The appearance of a secret realm is often random, but there is some inevitability in it. For example, before it appears, there must be some strange phenomena nearby.

Although Yuan Xi is only thirteen years old, he is a genius with natural spiritual roots who is rare in the Yuan family and even in the whole world. He has been practicing since he was six years old. In just seven years, he has reached the late stage of foundation building. He is a real monster.

Coupled with the special physique of his evil body, he has a considerable advantage when fighting with others - because others dare not fight him in close combat at all, for fear of accidentally touching him and being contaminated by his evil spirit.

Overall, his strength is no less than that of a Golden Core.

The thirteen-year-old's golden elixir is not unique in the world, but at least no one in the entire Flower Kingdom can match it.

It is precisely because of the sudden emergence of this genius that the Yuan family has developed rapidly in recent years and has become one of the first-class families.

The rank of aristocratic family in Huaguo is not obtained for nothing, but is judged based on various factors such as the family's top strength, the development potential of the younger generation, and the family's contribution.

This contribution is naturally to Guo Jia. When facing foreign enemies, Guo Jia will record the amount of effort made by the aristocratic families, which will affect the subsequent allocation of resources.

For example, the number of people entering the secret realm, the mining of ore, etc.

These top resources at Guo Jia's level can only be obtained in exchange for contribution points.

Of course, the aristocratic families or sects can also make no contribution at all and develop on their own, but in today's world, working in isolation is obviously not advisable. For many things, they still need Guo Jia's support, otherwise their development will be greatly restricted.

Just like this time, the Yuan family, as a newly promoted first-class family, has won the qualification to come and explore the secret realm that is about to appear in Tianyuan City. By coming here first, they can get first-hand information, which will be of great benefit for the follow-up.

Of course, it is not only the Yuan family that has strived for this exploration qualification, there are also several other forces. However, being able to obtain a qualification means that the Yuan family has truly entered a new category of power.

Achieved a class leap.

"Xiao Xi, have you eaten? I made some pork ribs and lotus root soup. Let me serve you a bowl."

Yuan Xi nodded: "Okay."

Noticing that he was in a good mood today, with a lighter aura than usual, Uncle Hong asked, "Did Xiaoxi encounter anything good today? He seems very happy."

Yuan Xi was stunned. Is it so obvious?

"Well, today I met a little girl named Huanhuan. She can come into contact with me, but she won't be hurt by the evil spirit I carry."

Aunt Lan, who was carrying the soup, was delighted to hear this. "Really? That's great! I've always worried that you'd be alone your whole life, Xiaoxi. I never thought I'd meet someone who isn't affected by your constitution. Her name is Huanhuan, right? What a beautiful name. How old is she? Isn't she much older than you?"

Aunt Lan's words seemed to imply that she wanted to pair the two of them up.

Yuan Xi matured much more precociously than the average child. Although he wasn't even thirteen physically, his mental age was probably more mature than some adults. Naturally, he recognized Aunt Lan's words and felt a little embarrassed: "Aunt Lan, Huanhuan is only three years old. What are you thinking about?"
