"What... what kind of monster are you exactly?" Qin Kexin's voice was so hoarse it didn't sound like her own. Six top-tier physiques, a complete Great Dao, and this was merely the tip of the iceberg?
Just how many hidden cards did this guy have left?
Qin Kexin suddenly remembered what she had just said...
"There are plenty of people stronger than you."
"If the First Ancestor's son awakens, your position as the Imperial Son will not be secure."
...
Thinking about those words now, how ridiculous were they?
The First Ancestor's son?
When he finally awakened and saw a monster like Qin Hao, he would probably be left dumbfounded as well.
Thinking of this, Qin Kexin took a deep breath, supported herself against the ground, and slowly stood up.
She looked at Qin Hao, her eyes filled with complex emotions.
"Setting those physiques aside for now, I just want to know how you did it?"
"Hmm? Did what?" Qin Hao raised an eyebrow.
Qin Kexin bit her lip and asked softly,
"The complete Great Dao. In this era, the Great Dao is fragmented. How were you able to grasp a complete Great Dao?"
Qin Kexin's eyes were full of a thirst for knowledge. To cultivators in this era of a fragmented Great Dao, the temptation of a complete Great Dao was greater than anything else. It was the realm that every cultivator dreamed of.
"You want to know?" Qin Hao looked at Qin Kexin, the corners of his mouth curving up slightly.
Qin Kexin nodded heavily. "Yes! Please teach me! I will repay you."
"Cultivating a complete Great Dao is actually very simple."
Qin Kexin's eyes lit up. "How?"
Qin Hao leaned close to Qin Kexin's ear. His warm breath brushed against it as he spoke in a low, bewitching voice,
"Dual cultivation is all it takes."
Qin Kexin froze. Her mind went completely blank, leaving only those two words echoing madly in her head.
Dual cultivation?
Dual cultivation?!
Her face instantly flushed beet red, the color spreading from her cheeks to the roots of her ears, and all the way down deep into her collar.
Her face was astonishingly hot, so red it looked like it could drip blood.
"You... you are shameless! I... I would never dual cultivate with you!"
Qin Kexin shoved Qin Hao away and, like a frightened rabbit, ran far away.
Qin Hao stood where he was, watching Qin Kexin's ashamed and flustered appearance, and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Wait, didn't you ask me? I'm just telling the truth."
Qin Hao had already imprinted the complete Great Dao into his Heavy Pupils. As long as they engaged in dual cultivation, combining yin and yang, the other party could also reflect the complete Great Dao from his Heavy Pupils to cultivate.
Everything he said was a fact. It wasn't like he was acting like a hooligan, so why did she run away in fear?
...
Qin Kexin ran all the way back to her own residence in one breath, dashed into her room, and slammed the door shut with a bang.
She leaned against the door, panting heavily, her heart beating so fast it felt like it would leap out of her chest.
Her face was so hot it felt like it was on fire.
"Bastard... shameless... lecherous... How could he speak of something like dual cultivation so righteously?"
"I haven't even prepared myself yet..."
Qin Kexin covered her face and slid down the door to sit on the floor. Qin Hao's handsome face appeared in her mind, along with his invincible posture that made it impossible for anyone to even think of resisting.
"But then again, if I really had to choose a Dao companion, he is undoubtedly the best choice."
"He is so handsome, his strength is so great, and his talent is so good..."
As soon as this thought popped up, Qin Kexin shook her head desperately, trying to throw the thought out.
"I'm doomed, doomed, doomed... Qin Kexin, what on earth are you thinking about!"
"That bastard, could he have been planning this from the very beginning, using the jade pendant engraved with the Dao companion rental information to get close to me?"
"And then today he revealed the complete Great Dao, and told me that if I wanted to learn it, I just needed to dual cultivate. His goal must have been this from the very start!"
Qin Kexin's heartbeat quickened even more.
"He... could he want to... with me..."
Halfway through her sentence, Qin Kexin couldn't even bring herself to finish it.
At the same time, some images involuntarily surfaced in her mind.
Qin Kexin shook her head frantically, trying to toss those images out, but they seemed to have taken root and couldn't be shaken off no matter what.
Qin Kexin threw herself onto the bed in defeat, covering her head with the quilt. She tossed and turned on the bed. After a good while, she finally stopped and sat up.
Biting her lip, she muttered softly, "If... if he comes to find me tomorrow, I... I'll consider giving him a chance..."
After saying that, her face turned red again. She fell back onto the bed and pulled the quilt over her head once more.
...
In Qin Hao's courtyard, he was lying leisurely on a rattan chair. Beside him, Shen Suning was obediently kneeling and peeling spirit fruits for him.
Just then, a figure appeared out of thin air at the courtyard entrance. Qin Hao looked up and saw that the newcomer was Qin Wuya.
"Old man, why are you here?"
Qin Wuya looked at Qin Hao's leisurely and carefree appearance, lying on a rattan chair with an obedient and lovely beauty serving him, looking incredibly comfortable.
Then he looked at himself. As the dignified Patriarch of the Qin family, he was busy handling all sorts of affairs all day long, so busy he couldn't even find the time to drink a sip of hot tea.
A feeling of comparisons are odious spread through Qin Wuya's heart. "I need to find some time to go to the Jade Pool, swallow my pride, and invite Ling'er back. Being lonely all the time is no way to live."
Qin Wuya pondered in his heart that he had to go to the Jade Pool to bring Qin Hao's mother back.
"Dad, you didn't come here just to stand around and space out, did you?"
Hearing Qin Hao's words, Qin Wuya finally snapped back to reality. He coldly snorted,
"You brat, stop lying there. I naturally have business with you."
"I believe you already know that the ancient prodigies are awakening. Just now, our ancestor's son also awakened. Heh, a bunch of old fogeys want me to tilt the Qin family's resources toward the First Ancestor's son. How could I ever agree to that?"
"You brat, I'm taking you to show your face and let them know who the true number one prodigy of the Qin family is. It will save them from constantly squawking in my ear in the future."
Hearing that the First Ancestor's son of the Qin family had awakened, Qin Hao also grew somewhat interested. Ever since the ancient prodigies began awakening, people had constantly been comparing the First Ancestor's son with him. Now that the other party had finally awakened, he wanted to experience his methods for himself.
Qin Hao suddenly stood up, patted his chest, and promised Qin Wuya,
"Dad, leave it to me. Your son is invincible."
Hearing this, Qin Wuya snorted coldly. "Do not underestimate your enemy. Even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit!"
Qin Hao nodded repeatedly. "Yes, yes, yes. By the way, Dad, there's something I'm quite curious about. Those old fogeys were sleeping perfectly fine, so why are they all awakening in this generation?"
Qin Wuya looked Qin Hao up and down, then asked, "You're asking me? What? Didn't that woman you hooked up with by traveling through space and time tell you?"
"This is all a setup orchestrated by her. Among the top factions of the Three Realms and Nine Heavens today, which one doesn't have her shadow behind it? Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to join forces so smoothly."
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic.

Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."

m back to his original world. In the end, he realized he had overthought things. [Hey, why is Shen Manni, the female lead, acting strange? Shouldn't she be fawning over the male lead at this point?] [Zhou Qiaoqiao, are you sick? Weren't you supposed to break off your engagement today?] [Damn it! An Youyi, please do your job as an undercover agent and sell my information to the protagonist, you idiot!] ...
