What's going on?

When Jiang Yuan and his group heard that their home had been demolished, they rushed back. However, instead of the ruins they had imagined, they found a pitted and uneven ground and a dilapidated house.

Who are you?

A sharp shout rang out, and the towering man gazing at a huge shield rushed out. "Wearing a mask and acting suspiciously, you can tell at a glance he's no good!"

The person who came out was Tang Yingjun!

"Big brother, who are they...?"

Upon hearing Jiang Yuan's voice, Xiao Xin rushed out, eager to explain to Xiao Pang, but Jiang Yuan stopped her, saying, "Let's go inside and talk!"

Little Fatty seemed to have figured something out as well. He glanced at the group suspiciously but didn't stop them anymore.

"What's going on?" Jiang Yuan asked, taking off his mask after entering the room.

"Wow, Brother Yuan, why are you wearing that mask!" Little Fatty saw the person under the mask, confirming his guess, but he was still startled when he saw Jiang Yuan.

"What's wrong? Is it not allowed?" Jiang Yuan was also helpless, but based on the principle of ladies first, he gave in.

"Then this clown must be our beautiful and pretty Miss Leng!" Little Fatty enthusiastically moved closer.

Leng Yue sighed irritably, took off her mask, and stood there in a daze without saying a word.

"What's wrong, Miss? You don't seem very happy!" the chubby boy asked in surprise.

Seeing that Xiao Pang hadn't given an explanation, Li Xiang had no choice but to explain what had happened.

"You mean, the two little ones made all those potholes here?"

After Li Xiang finished speaking, Jiang Yuan felt so angry that his mouth almost twisted out of shape. He thought that an enemy had invaded, but he never expected that it would be so hard to guard against a thief within his own family.

“Yes!” Li Xiang smiled bitterly and continued, “After you left, Paige and George started digging in the dirt in the backyard. At first, we didn’t notice because digging is their nature, but when we woke up this morning, we found the place looked like this!”

"What about Peppa and George?" Jiang Yuan suspected that he was raising two huskies, their destructive tendencies were too blatant.

"It's still rooting in the backyard!"

Li Xiang felt embarrassed and said, "We couldn't stop them. The two little ones kept pushing and shoving, and now they've pushed out a hole that's several meters deep!"

"These two really have to tear the house apart, don't they?!" Jiang Yuan was speechless and headed straight for the backyard.

"Don't get agitated, they're probably just bored and that's why they're causing trouble!" Ning Yanlan quickly reassured him, fearing that Jiang Yuan might do something else like steaming or boiling.

Jiang Yuan was incredibly frustrated. So, in your eyes, I'm that ruthless!

The backyard was already a mess, with one hole about a meter in diameter being the most conspicuous. You could see dirt being thrown out of it.

"They're still digging. Their dedication to demolishing houses is truly unwavering!" Jiang Yuan laughed in exasperation.

Although the opening wasn't large, it could still accommodate one person, so Jiang Yuan jumped down without much thought.

The hole the two little ones dug was very irregular, and it seemed to be constantly adjusting its direction. Although it was only seven or eight meters deep, Jiang Yuan had to go around several corners before he found the two little ones covered in mud.

"What are you doing?" Jiang Yuan picked up one in each hand. These two little ones, one with spiritual energy and the other with physical energy, had both reached the fourth level. Digging was really no challenge for them!

VIVIV

The two little ones struggled desperately, roaring at the ground.

"What do you mean? Could it be that there's treasure down there?" Jiang Yuan asked with a half-smile.

vivi, where Peggy George kept arching through the mud.

"If there really is any treasure, it won't be our turn!" Jiang Yuan transmitted his voice to Ning Yanlan, and a moment later she came down looking dejected.

"Why didn't you go up and talk about it in such a small hole!" Ning Yanlan said, brushing the dust off her clothes after coming down.

"This is, after all, the fruit of our love, you can't just shirk your responsibility!" Jiang Yuan nestled inside the cave, smiling as he looked at her.

"What's wrong? Aren't the two little ones going up?"

Jiang Yuan had told her the reason earlier, but he hadn't gone into too much detail.

“George doesn’t want to leave, so you come and sense if there’s any treasure here!” Jiang Yuan stated his purpose. The Stone Breath was a divine skill in treasure hunting, far more accurate than the instincts of some creatures.

Upon hearing this, Ning Yanlan became serious. She slowly placed her right hand on the soil, spreading the aura of stone for a full five minutes.

"Is there anything?" Jiang Yuan asked, though he had little hope.

Ning Yanlan looked somewhat uncertain, and after thinking for a while, she said, "There shouldn't be any. I can't sense any items with spiritual energy fluctuations!"

"See? Mom said there's nothing left. Shouldn't we go?" Jiang Yuan earnestly advised.

George called out "Hey, hey!" a few times, looking rather reluctant, while Paige was quieter and didn't go digging in the dirt after getting a definite answer.

"It's been so long since I've spent time with you all. This time, let's all get a good night's sleep!" Ning Yanlan picked up George, who was still running around on the ground.

Jiang Yuan was completely dumbfounded when he heard this. What the hell? Becoming family with pigs?

"Let's go!" Ning Yanlan was about to leave when she didn't notice the mineral residue on the ring flash briefly.

After investigating for a while, Jiang Yuan didn't think too much about it. After two investigations, it was certain that there was no treasure in the area.

...

"Brother Yuan, what's going on with you guys? You're all wearing masks, I thought you were people!"

Inside the house, the chubby boy carrying the meteorite plate was eager to learn more.

"Our story is a long one. But how have you been these past few days? Has anyone been giving you a hard time?" Jiang Yuan asked in return.

"Hey!" Little Fatty's eyebrows danced as he said this. He continued, "Don't say it was difficult for them, they wouldn't dare to neglect me at all!"

"You have no idea, everyone thinks I'm some kind of unparalleled expert! I'm so tired of hearing about me taking on a ninth-tier spirit beast all by myself with just a shield!"

Jiang Yuan laughed upon hearing this, "You haven't been exposed!"

"How could that be? I told you I was seriously injured in the battle with a ninth-tier spirit beast and my strength was reduced to less than one-tenth!" Little Fatty chuckled. "Those people believed me so much, and they all wanted to introduce their daughters to me. If I hadn't been thinking about Sister Leng all the time, I would have given up on becoming a live-in son-in-law!"

Jiang Yuan: "..."

"Don't even think about me, I might kill you!" Leng Yue suddenly blurted out.

"Things are completely different now! Just yesterday, my strength reached 127 points, and I'm just one step away from becoming a seventh-tier shield warrior!" The chubby boy said proudly, patting his chest. "Now I'm the strongest shield warrior in the Oath!"

"That's true. Compared to us who just finished killing a ninth-tier spirit beast, you, a near-seventh-tier shield warrior, are the strongest!" Jiang Yuan laughed and gave a thumbs up.

"etc!"

Little Fatty immediately realized, "You mean you killed another ninth-tier spirit beast?"

"It's all trivial, not worth mentioning!" Jiang Yuan said deliberately.

"Damn it! You guys didn't even include me at this moment of fame and fortune? That's so disloyal!"
