Fellow Practitioner Also in the Business of Renting Dao Companions

Qin Hao turned his head to look at Qin Zhantian and sent a voice transmission: "Learning everything will only harm you!"

After saying that, Qin Hao carried Qin Kexin in his arms and leisurely walked away under the gaze of countless eyes.

Shen Suning followed behind, her eyes full of sour jealousy. Looking at the little girl in Qin Hao's arms whose face was completely red, burying her face into Qin Hao's chest too shy to meet anyone's gaze, she couldn't help but mutter in a low voice:

"Hmph, have you no shame! Just because he is your man, you collapse into his arms like that!"

Shen Suning: "[○･｀Д´･○]"

Qin Hao brought Qin Kexin back to her mansion. After putting her down at the entrance, he prepared to leave.

Qin Kexin looked at Qin Hao with a disappointed expression. She had thought Qin Hao would bring her back to his place to do something, but he actually just brought her back home.

"Leaving already? Won't you come in and sit for a bit?"

Qin Kexin spoke up to make him stay. She finally understood now that she could never put on airs in front of Qin Hao again.

Qin Hao chuckled softly, then reached out and rubbed Qin Kexin's head:

"Get some good rest. Tomorrow, I will barge in and officially take you on a date, so be prepared."

Hearing this, Qin Kexin's small face instantly turned beet red. Be prepared? A date is just a date, why did she need to be prepared? Could it be that he wanted to...

Looking at Qin Kexin, who was twisting her body in shyness, Qin Hao couldn't help but burst into laughter. What was this woman imagining in her head again?

Whatever, he would come find her tomorrow. Right now, he needed to go get the dragon egg from his cheapskate father.

Not long after leaving Qin Kexin's mansion, Shen Suning clung onto him:

"Haohao~ We agreed that you would reward me after the competition. How can you go spend time with her tomorrow?"

Qin Hao was momentarily speechless. Crap, he really forgot about that.

Noticing Qin Hao's reaction, Shen Suning pouted and questioned:

"Don't tell me you forgot!"

Shen Suning pouted, her eye rims turning red on command, and a layer of mist instantly covered her mature and charming eyes.

She lowered her eyelids, her eyelashes trembling slightly, and her voice suddenly became soft and weak, carrying a bit of resentment and sorrow.

"Never mind... It's this concubine who is being unreasonable."

Qin Hao paused his steps. Seeing Shen Suning acting like this made his scalp tingle.

Shen Suning raised her hand and gently pressed the corner of her eyes with her sleeve. That action and demeanor made her look exactly like a wronged little wife who didn't dare to complain.

"Now that you have someone new, naturally the new love triumphs over the old."

"It's true, although I am an Immortal King and maintain eternal youth, my age is still there. In your heart, I naturally can't compare to those young little girls. They know how to act spoiled, they blush, and they burrow into people's arms..."

Qin Hao twitched the corner of his mouth. Looking at the pretentious Shen Suning in front of him, he couldn't help but say in his heart: "You haven't burrowed any less, have you? What? You want to flip the table after having your fill?"

Seeing Qin Hao staying silent, Shen Suning raised her eyes and gave him a faint look. That single glance contained so much grievance, resentment, and a heartbreaking bitterness of words left unsaid.

"Never mind, it's just my bitter fate. I will go back now and stay by myself. Since you are going to spend time with Sister Kexin tomorrow, you probably need to rest early today to build up your strength... I won't disturb you anymore."

After saying that, Shen Suning turned around to leave. Even though she was clearly an Immortal King, her footsteps were unsteady and her figure looked so frail, as if a gust of wind could blow her over.

Qin Hao smiled helplessly, then stepped forward and pulled Shen Suning into his arms:

"Who did you learn this pitifully manipulative act from?"

Qin Hao looked down at Shen Suning in his arms, then reached out to pinch her chin, lifting her face.

Shen Suning's eyes were red, and she looked incredibly wronged.

"Haven't you acted enough?" Qin Hao asked, raising an eyebrow.

Shen Suning blinked and said innocently: "As expected, men are all the same. They don't know how to cherish what they easily obtain. I'm afraid that whatever I do now is just putting on a show in your eyes."

Seeing Shen Suning's easily-bullied expression, Qin Hao leaned in close to her ear and said softly:

"Hmph, tonight, I'll let you see whether I cherish you or not!"

Shen Suning's cheeks instantly flushed red. She rejoiced in her heart, but on the surface, she still maintained her previous tone:

"Don't try to coax me. You still have to keep Sister Kexin company tomorrow, you better rest well today."

"Rest?" Qin Hao raised his eyebrows and scooped Shen Suning up into his arms: "I don't need rest!"

Shen Suning let out a gasp, her hands subconsciously wrapping around Qin Hao's neck. The resentment on her face instantly turned into shyness, accompanied by a hint of a victorious smile.

Shen Suning buried her face into Qin Hao's chest, her lips curling up uncontrollably.

Hmph!

Little brat, you want to fight with me?

The salt your big sister has eaten is more than the rice you've eaten!

You still want to go on a date with my Haohao tomorrow? I'll keep him here tonight!

Qin Hao carried Shen Suning back to his own mansion. Before he even arrived, he saw Qin Wuya standing at the entrance of his courtyard.

"Dad, you're here to deliver the dragon egg, right? Oh my, why bother making a trip personally? You could have just had a servant bring it."

A smile played on the corners of Qin Wuya's mouth: "Of course I had to come personally, to talk to you about the ownership of this egg."

As soon as these words came out, Qin Hao's face instantly froze.

"What? You're not happy about it, kid? Being unhappy is useless. I'm just here to inform you, not to discuss it with you. This egg is mine now, I'm taking it to give to your mother. Anyway, you already grasp the complete Great Dao, so the biggest fortuitous encounter within this dragon egg is useless to you."

Qin Hao shook his head helplessly. Sigh, whoever has the bigger fists has the right to speak.

Qin Wuya paused, then continued:

"By the way, if you have the chance, you should go take a look at the Lower Three Heavens."

Qin Hao frowned slightly: "Go to the Lower Three Heavens? Is there a reason?"

Qin Wuya gave Qin Hao a deep look and said in a deep voice: "There is a peer of yours in the Lower Three Heavens. How about that? Is that reason enough?"

"A peer?" Qin Hao pursed his lips, feeling a bit confused. What peer? Could it be someone else in the business of renting out Dao Companions?

Qin Wuya patted Qin Hao's shoulder: "There is a sect in the Lower Three Heavens called the Heavenly Demon Sect. The young master of this sect, Lin Bei, is just like you. He can obtain fortuitous encounters by provoking women. If that's not your peer, what is?"

"What the hell, why are there always such bizarre fortuitous encounters? Why have I never encountered one? Could it be related to me being too devoted?"

"It would be great if an opportunity like 'the stronger my son gets, the stronger I get' fell onto my head."

After saying that, Qin Wuya left, leaving Qin Hao standing there stunned.

"Damn System, come out here. Do you have another man on the outside?"

[Ding! Damn Host, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't just spout nonsense. This system is very devoted; you are my only man.]

"Then what's the deal with this guy named Lin Bei?"

[Ding! Won't the host know if you go and take a look for yourself?]

Just as Qin Hao was lost in thought, Shen Suning reached out and rubbed his cheek:

"Haohao, what's wrong? Is this person threatening you? How about I go and kill him for you?"

Qin Hao pondered for a moment, then shook his head. "There is no need. If they truly posed a threat to me, the old man wouldn't have smiled and told me to go take a look. Perhaps it is someone we can win over."
