"Accept! Why wouldn't I accept?" Qin Hao practically spat out the words through gritted teeth.
[Oh? You dog of a host, weren't you just saying that a rabbit doesn't eat the grass near its own burrow? Yet you didn't hesitate at all when it came to accepting the order.]
Qin Hao sneered, gritting his teeth as he stared at the words "what kind of trash are you" written on the order request.
"I was a bit hesitant at first, but just because of this sentence, I absolutely have to go and see what she's capable of!"
"We haven't even met, yet she's already hurling insults at me. It seems I'll have to discipline her properly."
[Tsk, tsk, tsk. Your thoughts are quite dangerous, but I like it!]
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully accepting the order. You have acquired the Yin-Yang Divine Physique, matching Qin Kexin's.]
As soon as the system's prompt ended, Qin Hao felt a strange energy suddenly surge within his body.
This energy was different from any previous physique fusion. It felt like an ancient power awakening from the depths of his bloodline. The Yin and Yang energies coiled and intertwined within his meridians, forming a black-and-white Taiji symbol that slowly rotated.
Qin Hao closed his eyes and looked inward.
His dual pupils glowed faintly, seeing through the trajectories of the Yin and Yang energies. His Innate Dao Physique naturally accepted this new power, blending it into his Dao resonance.
His Heavenly Phoenix Divine Physique resonated with a joyous cheer. The Nirvana Divine Fire and the Yin-Yang energies reflected each other's brilliance, while his Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart beat gently, its seven-colored light merging with the Taiji symbol.
The Nine-Revolution Samsara Supreme Physique directly activated the power of reincarnation, allowing the Yin and Yang energies to cycle endlessly within the samsara.
Right at this moment, a sudden mutation occurred deep within Qin Hao's dantian.
The slowly rotating Taiji symbol suddenly trembled violently. The Yin and Yang energies no longer blended gently but began to spin madly.
Qin Hao frowned. He could feel the spiritual energy in his body skyrocketing at an unimaginable speed.
His cultivation realm barriers were like wet paper, torn to shreds layer by layer by this berserk power.
As long as he wanted to, Qin Hao could step into the Body Integration Realm at any moment.
However, he was in no rush to break through. Instead, he desperately suppressed the rampaging power within him, preventing it from climbing any further.
The Body Integration Realm was true unity with the Dao—the body is the Dao, and the Dao is truth. Previous breakthroughs only required passing minor tribulations, but reaching the Body Integration Realm meant facing major tribulations.
In addition to lightning tribulations, there would also be a mortal realm tribulation to temper his state of mind, which would consume a massive amount of time. Qin Hao still had to fulfill his order, so he could only suppress his cultivation base for now and undergo the tribulation after completing the task.
"Phew—" After suppressing it for a full two hours, the rioting spiritual energy within Qin Hao's body finally stabilized.
He slowly stood up and looked at Jiang Xinyao and the other two women by the bed.
"I'm heading back to the Qin family. Are you going to continue adventuring outside, or will you come back with me?"
The three women exchanged glances. Jiang Xinyao was the first to speak: "I will continue adventuring outside. I feel that gaining experience in the outside world is quite beneficial for my cultivation."
As she spoke, Jiang Xinyao seemed to recall something, her face flushing bright red as she glanced at Qin Hao. Although dual cultivating with Qin Hao increased her cultivation base quite rapidly, his combat prowess was simply too intense; she needed a break.
Beside her, Su Qingyue chimed in, "I'll stay outside to adventure too."
Xia Lingxi looked at the two women beside her, then at Qin Hao, and ultimately chose to stick with Jiang Xinyao and the others.
Compared to Jiang Xinyao and Su Qingyue, Xia Lingxi's thoughts were much more complex. She had finally found her squad!
She needed to build a good relationship with her two older sisters and form an indestructible little clique. That way, even if others tried to ostracize her in the future, she would have someone to speak up for her.
However, this left Qin Hao feeling quite hurt. Wait, not a single one of them is willing to go with me? Am I that much of a failure?
Qin Hao sighed faintly. "Alright then, you girls continue adventuring outside. Xinyao is the Imperial Daughter of the Jiang family after all; if you follow her, she can handle any dangers you encounter."
After giving each of the three women a kiss on the cheek, Qin Hao activated his personal jade pendant to return to the Qin family.
......
In the Desolate Ancient Qin Family, within an ice crystal palace, a woman in white was sitting cross-legged.
She possessed peerless beauty, her skin like creamy jade and her brows like distant mountains. Her phoenix eyes slanted slightly upward, revealing an innate sense of arrogance.
"Smack!"
Qin Kexin forcefully threw the jade pendant in her hand onto the ground.
"Pah! Shameless scoundrel! What 'rental Dao companion'? Hmph, to think he dared to target this young lady!"
"Place an order? Heh, I placed it. I'll just stay right here in the Qin family. I'd like to see how a petty man like you, who relies on leeching off women for profit, manages to reach me!"
Qin Kexin stared at the jade pendant, her chest heaving slightly, her eyes full of contempt and disdain.
To think that an epoch ago, countless peerless geniuses and outstanding heroes had trampled over the Qin family's threshold just to catch a glimpse of her!
The line of men wanting to marry her could stretch from the Upper Three Heavens all the way to the Lower Three Heavens. Which of those men didn't have a prominent background and extraordinary talent? Yet, she hadn't fancied a single one of them.
Of her former acquaintances, which one wasn't now a major figure who could shake a region with a mere stomp of their foot? However, Qin Kexin still felt that these people were unworthy of her.
For the sake of the Qin family's struggle in the Great Era, she had been sealed for an entire epoch. But that didn't mean her standards had lowered.
"Hmph, rental Dao companion? A piece of trash who survives by being a woman's accessory! And he dares to lust after me?"
The more Qin Kexin thought about it, the angrier she got. She raised her foot and stomped down on the jade pendant.
The power of her stomp was enough to shatter ordinary spiritual artifacts. However, when it landed on the jade pendant, there was no reaction whatsoever.
Let alone shattering it, she couldn't even leave a single crack.
"Huh, pretty sturdy."
"Bang!"
Qin Kexin raised her foot and viciously stomped down again.
"Bang!"
The ground cracked, sending debris flying. The entire secret chamber trembled slightly, but the jade pendant remained completely intact. It lay quietly in the center of the fissure, even faintly radiating a warm luster, as if mocking her incompetence.
Qin Kexin's face darkened. She refused to believe that she couldn't deal with a mere piece of jade.
A cluster of Yin and Yang energies surfaced in her palm. Using her fingers as a sword, the Yin and Yang energies intertwined, transforming into a blade of spiritual sword qi.
Qin Kexin held nothing back from her Body Integration Realm cultivation base. She slashed at the jade pendant with a strike powerful enough to slay any Body Integration Realm cultivator of this era.
However, as the sword qi sank into the jade pendant, it was like a clay ox entering the sea—vanishing without a trace.
"Hm?"
Qin Kexin let out a soft exclamation of surprise, then backhanded an Imperial Weapon out of thin air. "Again!"
Still useless.
Qin Kexin's eyes widened. She stared at the completely undamaged jade pendant in her hand, looking as if she had seen a ghost. Not even an Imperial Weapon could leave the slightest mark on this jade pendant?
Just as Qin Kexin was about to continue her stubborn battle with the jade pendant, her maid trotted over to her side. "Miss, the contemporary Imperial Son of our Qin family has come to visit you."
Hearing this, Qin Kexin couldn't help but let out a cold sneer.
"Contemporary Imperial Son? Calling him the Imperial Son is giving him face. Without that face, what kind of trash is he? I won't see him!"
