Inside the courtyard.
Li Muwan and Zhou Zihong were sitting there, waiting.
"Sister Zihong, do you think Master and Aunt Feng will be able to deal with those Fire Spirit Beasts?"
Li Muwan had been waiting for so long without seeing anyone return that she couldn't help but grow anxious.
Zhou Zihong rolled her eyes prettily and said, "What Aunt Feng? I think you, little girl, are clearly just worried about Senior Qin Hao!"
Seeming to have been called out on her true feelings, Li Muwan's pretty face flushed slightly, and her eyes flickered as she said, "I'm worried about everyone."
"The Nascent Soul Ancestors of the past were all able to seal the Fire Spirit Beasts, which means the Fire Spirit Beasts are only at the Nascent Soul Realm!"
Zhou Zihong thought for a moment and said, "Senior Qin has now ascended to the Spirit Transformation Realm, so it shouldn't be difficult for him to seal these Fire Spirit Beasts."
In her mind, she couldn't help but recall the scene of when she first met Qin Hao.
Back then, Qin Hao was surrounded by countless Wandering Souls, looking exactly like a vicious and wicked demon lord.
But after spending time together, Zhou Zihong discovered that he was absolutely an excellent candidate for a Dao Companion.
She glanced at Li Muwan, feeling a twinge of jealousy in her heart: Heavens, why wasn't I the one to meet Senior Qin Hao first? I also want to experience the senior's magnificent embrace!
Zhou Zihong's mood was very complicated right now.
She knew full well that falling in love with her good sister's Dao Companion was wrong, but Qin Hao was too outstanding—so outstanding that she couldn't help but throw herself at him like a moth to a flame, so outstanding that she couldn't fit any other man in her eyes.
"Sister Zihong, what you say makes a lot of sense!"
Li Muwan nodded and said, "With Little Brother Qin Hao's strength, he certainly wouldn't be threatened by these Nascent Soul Realm Fire Spirit Beasts."
Suddenly, the void distorted, and Qin Hao stepped out from within.
He walked upon the air, stood with his hands behind his back, and asked with a smile, "Sister Wan'er, Miss Zihong, what are you two chatting about?"
"Little Brother Qin Hao, you're finally back!"
Hearing his voice, Li Muwan stood up immediately and threw herself into Qin Hao's arms like a swallow returning to its nest.
Feeling Wan'er's Wife hugging him tightly, Qin Hao couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"
Li Muwan tilted her head back and asked curiously, "Have those Fire Spirit Beasts been sealed again?"
"I've taken care of them all!"
Qin Hao spoke calmly and proudly, "From this day forward, there will never be a beast disaster in the Huofen Kingdom again."
"Hiss!"
Li Muwan and Zhou Zihong both gasped in shock.
This meant that every single Fire Spirit Beast had been killed by Qin Hao.
They didn't feel sorry for the Fire Spirit Beasts; rather, they had gained a new understanding of Qin Hao's strength.
Zhou Zihong turned her head and saw Qin Hao's handsome face, steady temperament, and transcendent bearing, which fully displayed the style of a grandmaster and made one unable to help but fall for him.
If Li Muwan weren't present, she felt she wouldn't be able to restrain herself and would have pounced on him.
Watching the two of them embracing intimately, Zhou Zihong couldn't help but turn away, thinking to herself: Little Sister Wan'er, don't blame your sister for competing with you for a man.
Senior Qin Hao is simply too fascinating; if I miss out on him, I dare not imagine how much I would regret it in the future!
That day.
The Four Great Sects of the Huofen Kingdom celebrated the eradication of the Fire Spirit Beasts at the War God Temple.
Ever since the founding of the Huofen Kingdom, they had always needed to guard against these Fire Spirit Beasts.
Moreover, because of their existence, the seals on the volcanoes had to be reinforced from time to time.
It could be said that they had suffered immensely.
Now, with the assistance of Qin Hao, the Huofen Kingdom had completely wiped out all the Fire Beasts.
This was naturally a grand event worth celebrating.
While the Huofen Kingdom was celebrating, Wang Mazi was wandering through the outer seas of the Demon Cultivation Sea.
He had caused such a massive catastrophe in the Huofen Kingdom that he was terrified of being found out, so he had no choice but to stay far away from there.
Late at night.
Qin Hao was lying on his bed resting.
With his current cultivation level, he had not only reached the stage of fasting but no longer needed rest, nor would he get drunk.
However, ever since Qin Hao had transmigrated, he had been cultivating constantly and had barely rested.
This time, he intentionally did not purge the alcohol from his body, wanting to let the spirit wine numb him so he could take a brief break.
"Creak~"
Suddenly, the bedroom door opened quietly, and a graceful dark shadow tiptoed inside from the outside.
The dark shadow locked the door, then crept forward and lunged onto the bed.
"Urgh!"
The next moment, Qin Hao snapped awake, his hand shooting out to grip the intruder by the throat.
"Fwoosh!"
The candles in the room ignited automatically, dispelling the darkness and revealing the figure of Zhou Zihong.
"So it is Miss Zihong. What is the meaning of this?"
Qin Hao set Zhou Zihong down, feigning ignorance.
With his cultivation level, he had naturally sensed who the figure in the darkness was.
He had only lit the candles to speak openly.
"Brother... Qin Hao!"
Zhou Zihong's eyes burned with intensity. She stepped forward with her long legs, her breath sweet as orchids as she whispered, "I want to be your woman, too!"
As she spoke, her luscious, crimson lips pressed toward Qin Hao.
Qin Hao reached out to block her, saying, "Miss Zihong, I already have someone I love."
He wasn't being deliberately pretentious, nor was he the type of man to love only one person his entire life.
The main issue was that he had only just reunited with Wan'er in the flesh, and their relationship hadn't even reached the final step yet.
If he were to bed her best friend at a time like this, how would Wan'er view him?
Zhou Zihong's delicate body trembled. She looked at Qin Hao with beautiful eyes and asked, "Is it that... I am not even a fraction as good as Little Sister Wan'er? I don't ask for status, and I won't compete with her. I only ask that you cherish me and let me be your woman!"
She hadn't expected that even after shamelessly throwing herself at him, he would still reject her.
This was a massive blow to Zhou Zihong.
Especially since her beauty, which she took such pride in, had failed for the first time.
"You are very beautiful, and you are a good girl," Qin Hao said. "We can interact and get to know each other more in the future, but I don't want to... it would be unfair to Wan'er right now."
"We can interact more?"
Zhou Zihong's eyes lit up, and she said happily, "Thank you for being willing to give me this chance. I will cherish it!"
With that, she left the room.
Regardless, they were both still young; there would be plenty of opportunities to interact in the future.
On the other side.
The Giant Demon Clan Old Ancestor returned from the location of the Divination Calculator.
This time, he had spent a vast amount of the Immortal Jade stored by the Giant Demon Clan to have a Nascent Soul Transformation Stage Divination Calculator pinpoint Qin Hao's current location for him.
These Divination Calculators were truly terrifying existences.
Gao Qiming of the Misty Sect in the Zhao Kingdom had once divined the location of Wang Lin's entire family, leading to the slaughter of the Wang Family.
In the original story, the Divination Calculator of a Level 4 Cultivation Nation had even divined the whereabouts of Xu Liguo. Had it not been for the Spirit Transformation Old Monster Duanmu Ji, Wang Lin would certainly have been captured by the Nascent Soul Expert of the Corpse Yin Sect.
As for figures like Tian Yunzi and Immortal Emperor Qing Lin, their divinations were flawless, capable of foreseeing events tens of thousands of years into the future.
"The Huofen Kingdom, a Third-rank Cultivation Nation?"
The Giant Demon Clan Old Ancestor gazed into the distance.
As long as Qin Hao had not returned to the Soul Refining Sect, it meant the Heavenly Reversal Bead had not yet been exposed.
He intended to eliminate this hidden threat before heading to the interior of the Space Rifts on the Outer Realm Battlefield to investigate.
