Planning to Buy a Villa

Ling Yun lay on the bed and, at his daughter's request, sang her a nursery rhyme.

Poor Ling Yun sang until his throat was dry, yet she still showed no sign of sleepiness.

How could the little one fall asleep? The singing was far too beautiful. The nursery rhymes father used to sing to coax her to sleep had been unbearably awful.

But this time, it was so good that the more she listened, the more awake she became.

"Daddy, sing another one, pretty please." The little one blinked, looking at Ling Yun with expectant eyes.

"No, it's too late."

"But I can't sleep anymore."

"Father will teach you a method. First, close your eyes, then start counting sheep. One, two, three..."

By the time she counted to fifteen sheep, the little one had fallen asleep.

Ling Yun had begun counting the sheep in a hypnotic, devilishly enchanting voice. Let alone an excited child—even a raging bull would obediently fall asleep upon hearing him count sheep.

Ling Yun began planning out tomorrow's arrangements. This rental was too small and too old; it was not conducive to his daughter's development.

Tomorrow, he would go look into which private villas had good locations. Ling Yun was a rich man now—money was no object.

Ling Yun's mother taught at a high school in Jiangnan City, so he wanted to buy a house close to Jiangnan City, preferably at the boundary between the two districts. A quiet environment was most important.

Also, he currently had no job at all. He had to start some kind of business; he could not let others look down on him.

Late at night, in a mysterious manor, people filled both sides of three long tables. Every one of them was at least a Xiantian Master.

They had gathered to discuss what had happened during the day.

"In my view, what lies inside is most likely a Secret Realm." This Heavenly Rank member of the Dragon Group stood and spoke.

"Mm, I also agree with Lin Chen's assessment."

The moment those words were spoken, everyone turned to look at him.

This was Chen Shu, an Earth Rank member of the Dragon Group and a Xiantian Master. He had reached the Innate Realm in his twenties; his future was boundless. In everyone's eyes, he was a genius.

Chen Shu greatly enjoyed the looks directed at him. He was a talent his Lineage had focused on cultivating, and he had been wild and arrogant since childhood.

At the mention of a Secret Realm, everyone first fell silent for a while, then began whispering among themselves.

In an inconspicuous corner, a beautiful woman in a qipao murmured, "A Secret Realm? Interesting."

Then the corners of her lips curved into a faint smile.

"Hehe, Big beauty Liu is interested? Hahaha." A beautiful woman beside her teased.

"An Xiaoxiao, stop it." Liu Qingcheng rolled her eyes speechlessly.

"Enough. Quiet. Whether it is a Secret Realm or not, its appearance will inevitably bring disaster." The Old Man spoke again.

Immediately!

They discussed several matters. Everyone was somewhat exhausted, and only late into the night did they finally disperse.
