Qin Xiao stayed at home for two days, bored out of his mind.

On the sofa, Ye Qingya looked at Qin Xiao, who looked utterly dejected, with amusement.

"My busy man, you're not used to having so much free time, are you?"

Qin Xiao nodded helplessly, "People are just like that. I get tired of this leisurely life after only two days."

Ye Qingya slammed down her teacup in annoyance. "Did I not serve you well enough? You've already gotten tired of me?!"

Qin Xiao sat up abruptly. "Look at you, what are you talking about? Of course you're fun, baby, but... well, it's just a feeling."

Ye Qingya was dressed very lightly, and the heating in her house was on full blast, so she didn't have to worry about catching a cold.

Moreover, although beast tamers don't focus so much on physical cultivation, at this level, they are not easily affected by ordinary hot or cold energy.

Ye Qinghuan sipped her red tea, coldly observing the two of them. These two were increasingly treating her like she was invisible.

They started adjusting it right in front of everyone.

Seeing that their passionate affair was about to escalate, Ye Qinghuan quickly interrupted, "Ahem, I said, Brother Qin Xiao, didn't you promise to help Mu Yueming in his secret realm?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Qingya also looked at him with an unfriendly gaze.

If we go, I don’t know how long it will take, and who knows what might happen then.

"Ahem, this isn't urgent. I'm just spending more time with you guys at home. Besides, once the portal opens, what difference will it make where we are?"

The two women relaxed; now that you mention it, it's true...

Ye Qingya touched her earrings, and Ye Qinghuan also touched the same magatama-shaped earrings.

This beacon is quite powerful; it allows you to make contact even in secret realms.

Qin Xiao had originally planned to give one to Liu Feixue so they could stay in touch, but their relationship wasn't quite there yet, so he'd have to wait and see.

Only one of these earrings can be made at the first level of the Thousand Clouds Clan, making it quite precious.

"Since you're not planning to run errands this early, and you find staying at home boring, why don't you go explore your secret realm?"

Ye Qingya asked curiously, as she had heard her daughter say that Qin Xiao really liked this secret realm.

Thinking back to the time in Qianyun's secret realm, it seems that Qin Xiao also had a particular fondness for this kind of ancient world.

It's as if there's a special filter, always carrying a sense of tolerance and reminiscence.

Upon hearing this, Qin Xiao couldn't help but shake his head. "Forget it, the beautiful illusion has been shattered, and the dream of wandering the martial world with a sword can no longer be rekindled."

Forget chivalry and tenderness, forget chivalry and justice, forget laughing and roaming freely, forget "waiter, two catties of beef and a jar of wine," everyone has to live and eat.

When it comes to interests, they all become incredibly shameless. You didn't see it, but the so-called "big players" were practically groveling at my feet.

"Tsk, I can understand them, given their desperate situation... Sigh, thinking about it, it's better to just dream about the martial arts world."

Hearing Qin Xiao's somewhat listless words, Ye Qingya and Ye Qinghuan exchanged a glance, completely baffled by this inexplicable complaint.

Those who haven't experienced the world of Jin Yong and Gu Long, and haven't been immersed in the world of martial arts fiction, cannot truly empathize with them...

Feeling utterly bored, just as Qin Xiao couldn't resist pulling Ye Qingya aside to discuss the principles of Yin and Yang and the human relationship,...

Footsteps could be heard from the second floor.

Liu Feixue came out of Qin Xiao's room with a strange expression on her face.

"I didn't expect to see you indulging in debauchery today?"

Qin Xiao's face hardened. "Is that how you talk to your boss?"

To be honest, Qin Xiao was truly wronged. Although he did have some issues, was this entirely his fault?

He was just routinely paying his taxes. Putting those issues aside, what's wrong with a man sleeping with his wife?

Liu Feixue remained noncommittal, but wisely kept quiet, knowing that Qin Xiao was not a petty person.

But this guy is very shy about this kind of thing; he's afraid of what others will say if he does it, so it's best not to provoke him.

Maybe this guy opened the portal in his room because he had ulterior motives.

"Ahem, it's like this, boss. The current emperor of the Great Yue Dynasty is requesting an audience with you. He's come to me with the leader of the Yunyan Sect, saying he has something to ask of you."

Qin Xiao frowned. "Didn't you say what it was about?"

Liu Feixue smiled and said, "They didn't say, but I guess it's just those kinds of things. I'm still quite curious though."

The royal family of the Great Yue Dynasty held out for several days, and finally arrived. They've probably come to lay their cards on the table; I wonder what they want.

Qin Xiao stood up and stretched. "Shall we go take a look?"

His gaze fell on Ye Qinghuan and the other woman, who shook their heads. "You go first. I haven't finished handing over my work yet. There's another key to pass on later."

Qin Xiao pursed his lips, "Your job is quite troublesome, it's been going on for days."

Ye Qingya said irritably, "Do you think this is a shop sublet? This is such a big city, with tens of millions of lives. If it weren't for you, I would have had some of my memories forcibly erased. I'm already very content."

Qin Xiao did not respond. His wife is currently out of her comfort zone and has been a bit restless and uneasy these past two days. Except when she is physically confronted, she is usually quite irritable.

"And you?"

Ye Qinghuan gave him a strange look. "Forget it, I haven't been feeling well these past few days..."

"Huh, shouldn't it be the end of the month? It's only the middle of the month," Qin Xiao said, scratching his head in confusion.

Suddenly realizing what was happening, and staring at the two pairs of piercing eyes, he fled in a disheveled state.

"Ahem, I'm going now. This matter is probably very important. Let's go, let's go deal with it right away."

As he spoke, he grabbed Liu Feixue, who was watching the show, and pulled her away.

On the other side, a mystical realm of immortals and heroes.

Yes, "Xianxia" is a name Qin Xiao came up with; it's kind of his internal code name.

The martial arts prowess in this world, well, it's actually much higher than in martial arts novels, but much lower than in fantasy novels.

The top-tier individuals can fly, but not in a stylish or fast way; they have destructive power, but cannot easily destroy mountains or split seas.

It can only be said that it barely touches the edge of the semi-fantasy genre.

However, Qin Xiao still gilded the dog's tail, which can be seen as a beautiful expectation for the future.

After all, according to the other party's cultivation method, becoming a demigod is still possible. As for whether he can become a god, that is not a matter of cultivation method.

Based on years of research by Huawu Kingdom, there is no cultivation method in this world that can allow one to directly reach the realms of True God, or so-called Celestial Immortal, Crown Rank, Rule, Dao Lord, etc.

Even if it really exists, it would probably have prepared the necessary resources, such as divine essence or Dao fruits.

These incompetent fools who try to fill the void are no match for the self-proving and transcendent beings of all the heavens and myriad realms.
