Qin Xiao put down the glass he was drinking with Zhou Lei and said directly.

"Ask me any questions, after all, it's a once-in-a-lifetime event."

Liu Feixue rolled her eyes in annoyance. This bastard made it sound like something out of a novel.

"I want to ask you, do you want just me, or my entire Flying Snow team?!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Xiao glanced at her expression and began to understand the situation.

Surprisingly, this girl is quite kind... But there's nothing Qin Xiao can do; while he's looking out for his old friend, he doesn't want to bring along a bunch of strangers...

"Ahem, let me put it this way: for my direct supervisors, I only need those with purple or higher talent and at least platinum cultivation level."

Those who lack talent or ability, I'm sorry, at most they can only work as peripheral staff, and you can control that yourself.

After all, the secret realm is very large, and it will become more and more numerous and larger. There will always be some soup and broth to drink, so I'm too lazy to care.

It doesn't matter who gets to drink it; if it's given to someone from Earth, a fellow countryman from Huawu Kingdom, or a fellow townsman from Qingzhou, then it's acceptable.

Qin Xiao wasn't lying. It was inevitable that there would be some peripheral or lower-level personnel involved, and these people were essentially keeping the benefits within the family.

Upon hearing this, Liu Feixue nodded subconsciously.

That makes it sound like very generous terms.

Although she had never seen how a large family's secret realm was run, it still required a basic staff.

Even training novices or geniuses always starts from the bottom.

Going forward, we must continue to cultivate our own talent in this area and establish an internal talent development mechanism.

The creatures in the secret realm, as well as Huawu Guoqingzhou, can all serve as each other's base, absorbing geniuses and fresh blood.

Liu Feixue thought about her Feixue team.

Regardless of talent, if they don't want anyone below the Platinum rank, wouldn't that mean the other party only wants to be with me?

After all, his own Flying Snow team, specifically the vice-captain, has a Gold rank at max level, but who knows when he'll break through to the next level.

However, she was no ordinary person, and she had already made up her mind.

Liu Feixue raised her wine glass and said softly.

"I have two conditions, listen carefully."

Qin Xiao became interested. "Go on, go on."

"First of all, I'm just helping you manage the secret realm. It's just a job, not your slavery. You can't have any strange ideas about me!"

Qin Xiao chuckled awkwardly, "Hehe, it's only right, it's only right. Besides, you work with my wife, so I wouldn't have the chance to take advantage of you."

"You really want to?" Liu Feixue's eyebrows shot up.

Qin Xiao quickly waved his hand, "Hey, let's move on to the next one."

"Secondly, regarding any benefits, I will definitely favor my team members, I hope you understand that, but I will never benefit myself at the expense of the team."

Qin Xiao nodded, "Of course, I don't mind these basic things anyway. They're unavoidable. As long as you understand them, I trust you."

For some reason, Liu Feixue smiled slightly, "That's good then. I wish us a pleasant time together."

Qin Xiao smiled too, "That's it."

"It's a pleasure doing business with you!"

Zhou Lei and Liu Piaoxu exchanged a glance, feeling as if this gathering of friends had turned into a job fair.

This atmosphere is so strange.

Just as she was about to say something, Liu Feixue put down her wine glass.

"Hey, your job hasn't even started yet, but since I'm going to work for you, you'd better help me solve a problem first."

You didn't say anything earlier, but now you're taking advantage of the situation. Liu Feixue, you're really cunning.

It went from someone who could have taken advantage of the favor to someone who was entitled to help.

Qin Xiao felt a pang of jealousy; this girl was definitely not a naive and innocent girl.

"Go ahead and tell me."

Qin Xiao was speechless and didn't bother to argue with her.

A slight smile appeared on Liu Feixue's lips.

“These are all minor matters to the boss, who is the world’s number one young champion.”

Qin Xiao glared at her, annoyed. "Let's get down to business!"

"Ahem, it's like this, it's actually just a dispute over a secret realm. My Flying Snow team finally discovered a new Platinum Secret Realm."

"Now the other teams in Qingzhou have teamed up to try and get a piece of the pie, but I don't want to get a share..."

Qin Xiao was taken aback. The matter wasn't complicated, but it wasn't easy to handle.

"Then what do we do? You've fallen out. Should I kill them for you?"

Liu Feixue shook her head, "That's unlikely. Besides, we'll run into each other all the time. The big team won't go too far."

"So what do you want to do?"

Liu Feixue smiled and said, "You can come with me to negotiate tomorrow. Just say it's your property, and they won't dare to fight over it."

"That simple?"

Qin Xiao was somewhat surprised.

Liu Feixue nodded. "Beastmasters are like that. Besides, others might not be able to do it, but you are a great hero and the world's number one young powerhouse. They wouldn't dare to mess with you, not even to secretly trip you up."

Qin Xiao thought about it and realized that what he said made sense.

He realized it himself just now: in this world, in the end, it is still the fist that decides.

Add to that his aura and the momentum he commands, and frankly, with a single call to arms, he would be the most powerful force in Qingzhou.

Perhaps even more powerful than the government...

Huh?

Is this also the reason why the Temple of the Divine Realm intentionally guides the strong to go out and develop?

If you want to kill or rob, go out and cause trouble. Don't be a bully in your own backyard.

Tsk, that's very possible!

Thinking of this, Qin Xiao happily picked up his cup, "Come on, let's have a proper three drinks before we meet."

For a moment, the group chatted happily.

However, apart from Qin Xiao, everyone else had their own thoughts.

Zhou Lei remained silent throughout. He knew that Brother Xiao would remember his kindness, so he just needed to focus on his cultivation and give him all the resources.

Liu Piaoxu's eyes darted between her sister and Qin Xiao, her gaze lingering subtly, as if she were plotting something.

Liu Feixue, on the other hand, had already begun to adopt the ways of a socialite.

Thinking about building a good relationship with her boss, she has already begun to intentionally or unintentionally flatter and praise Qin Xiao.

Has it changed?

Things have definitely changed; we're not children anymore.

But to say how much has changed wouldn't be an exaggeration.

After all, given her personality, Liu Feixue wasn't the type to easily submit for personal gain.

Even if they agreed to Qin Xiao's offer, it was mostly because they had a good relationship and he was relatively reliable.

Although it sounds a bit far-fetched, that's really what she thought.

After all, I'd rather be a local tyrant here than fawn over Qin Xiao's powerful backer.

They still have their own pride.

After a few rounds of drinks, almost all the dishes had been served.

A dazzling array of high-level exotic beast meats were on display, and Zhou Lei devoured them like a starving ghost.

Even Liu Feixue sighed, realizing that times had indeed changed.

Just then, the door to the private room was pushed open, and Ye Qinghuan walked in with a smile on her face.

Her high ponytail swayed, and she wore a cool and refreshing outfit, her long legs dazzlingly white.

Because of the gathering with friends, none of them were able to use their spiritual energy to resist, and Qin Xiao was truly a bit drunk.

Upon seeing Ye Qinghuan walk in, a flash of white light appeared, causing some people to stare in astonishment.

Ye Qinghuan noticed this scene out of the corner of her eye, and a smile appeared on her lips.

She sat down next to Qin Xiao, took his arm, and said, "Brother Xiao, I'm late. Hello, Sister Piaopiao Feixue and Zhou Lei."

However, no one responded to her greeting; instead, they stared in shock at her and Qin Xiao's hands clasped together.

Ye Qinghuan's face was flushed, but she didn't say anything and kept holding on.

Qin Xiao realized something was wrong, but the alcohol made him speechless for a moment.

Ye Qinghuan had no idea that Qin Xiao had already made his relationship with her mother public.

I was hoping to pull a little trick in front of my friends, but little did I know that the three people opposite me were completely dumbfounded.

"What's wrong with you? Aren't you happy to see me?"

Liu Feixue, Liu Piaoxu, and Zhou Lei were all shocked and blurted out.

"That's really weird!"
