Inside the courtyard.
Li Muwan and Zhou Zihong sat there waiting.
"Sister Zihong, do you think Master and Aunt Feng can deal with those Fire Spirit Beasts?"
After waiting and waiting without seeing anyone return, Li Muwan could not help but grow worried.
Zhou Zihong rolled her pretty eyes and said, "What Aunt Feng? You little girl are clearly worried about Senior Qin Hao!"
Seemingly having her thoughts exposed, Li Muwan's lovely face flushed slightly as her gaze flickered. "I'm worried about all of them."
"The Nascent Soul Ancestors of the past were all able to seal the Fire Spirit Beasts, which means they were only at the Nascent Soul level!"
After thinking for a moment, Zhou Zihong said, "Senior Qin has now advanced to the Deity Transformation realm. Sealing those Fire Spirit Beasts should not be difficult for him."
Unconsciously, the scene of her first encounter with Qin Hao resurfaced in her mind.
At that time, countless Wandering Souls swirled around Qin Hao, making him look like a terrifying, vicious demon lord.
But after spending time with him, Zhou Zihong discovered that he was absolutely an excellent choice for a companion.
She glanced at Li Muwan, feeling somewhat jealous. Heavens, why wasn't I the first to meet Senior Qin Hao? I want to experience Senior's broad embrace too!
Zhou Zihong's feelings were very complicated now.
She knew that falling for her close friend's partner was wrong, but Qin Hao was simply too outstanding—so outstanding that she could not help but throw herself at him like a moth to a flame, so outstanding that her eyes could no longer hold any other man.
"Sister Zihong, you make a lot of sense!"
Li Muwan nodded. "With Little Brother Qin Hao's strength, these Nascent Soul stage Fire Spirit Beasts truly cannot threaten him."
Suddenly, the air twisted, and Qin Hao stepped out from within it.
He stood in the air with his hands behind his back and asked with a smile, "Sister Wan'er, Miss Zihong, what are you talking about?"
"Little Brother Qin Hao, you're finally back!"
Upon hearing his voice, Li Muwan immediately rose to her feet and threw herself into Qin Hao's arms like a swallow returning to its nest.
Feeling Wan'er's Wife hug him tightly, Qin Hao could not help asking, "What is it?"
Li Muwan raised her head and asked curiously, "Have those Fire Spirit Beasts been sealed again?"
"I took care of all of them!"
Calm and composed, Qin Hao declared proudly, "From this day onward, Huofen Kingdom will never suffer beast disasters again."
"Gasp!"
Li Muwan and Zhou Zihong both sucked in a cold breath.
This meant that Qin Hao had killed every single Fire Spirit Beast.
They did not pity 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. He exuded the air of a grandmaster, making one unable to resist being drawn to him.
If Li Muwan had not been present, she felt that she would have been unable to restrain herself and would have rushed into his arms as well.
Watching the two embrace intimately, Zhou Zihong could not help turning away. Little Sister Wan'er, don't blame your sister for stealing your man.
Senior Qin Hao is simply too captivating. If I miss him, I dare not imagine how much I will regret it in the future!
That day.
The Four Great Sects of Huofen Kingdom celebrated the destruction of the Fire Spirit Beasts at the War God Temple.
Ever since Huofen Kingdom was founded, it had always needed to guard against those Fire Spirit Beasts.
Moreover, because of their existence, the seal on the volcano had to be reinforced from time to time.
It had truly been unbearable.
Now, with Qin Hao's help, Huofen Kingdom had completely exterminated all the Fire Beasts.
Naturally, this was a grand occasion worth celebrating.
While Huofen Kingdom celebrated, Wang Mazi was wandering the Outer Sea of the Demon Cultivation Sea.
He had caused such a tremendous disaster in Huofen Kingdom and feared that others would find out, so he had no choice but to stay far away.
Late at night.
Qin Hao lay on the bed, resting.
With his current cultivation, he had already transcended the need for food and rest, and he could not become drunk either.
But ever since crossing over, Qin Hao had constantly been cultivating and had barely rested.
This time, he had deliberately not purged the alcohol from his body, wanting the spiritual wine to numb him so that he could rest briefly.
"Creak~"
Suddenly, the door quietly opened, and a graceful black figure tiptoed inside.
The shadow locked the door from within, then quietly approached and pounced toward the bed.
"Uh!"
The next moment, Qin Hao suddenly awoke and raised a hand to seize her by the throat.
Whoosh!
The candles in the room lit themselves, dispelling the darkness and revealing Zhou Zihong.
"So it's Miss Zihong. What are you doing here?"
Qin Hao set Zhou Zihong down and knowingly asked.
With his cultivation, he naturally knew who the figure in the darkness was.
The reason he had lit the lamps was merely so they could speak openly.
"Qin Hao... Little Brother!"
Zhou Zihong's eyes burned with passion as she stepped closer on her long legs, breathing softly. "I want to be your woman too!"
As she spoke, her delicate red lips pressed toward Qin Hao's.
Qin Hao raised a hand to stop her. "Miss Zihong, I already have someone I like."
He was not deliberately putting on airs, nor was he someone who would love only one person for his entire life.
The main issue was that he had only just made things official with Wan'er's Wife, and their relationship had not even reached its final step yet.
If he devoured her best friend at a time like this, what would Wan'er's Wife think of him?
Zhou Zihong's delicate body trembled slightly as she looked at Qin Hao with her beautiful eyes. "Could it be... that I am not even a little comparable to Little Sister Wan'er? I do not seek status, nor will I compete with Little Sister Wan'er. I only ask that you cherish me and let me be your woman!"
She had not expected that even after shamelessly throwing herself at him, he would still refuse her.
This dealt Zhou Zihong a severe blow.
Especially since the beauty she had always been so proud of had failed for the first time.
"You're very beautiful, and you're a good girl too!"
Qin Hao said, "We can spend more time together and get to know each other better in the future, but I don't want to... It would be somewhat unfair to Wan'er right now."
"We can spend more time together?"
Zhou Zihong's eyes lit up as she said happily, "Thank you for giving me this chance. I'll cherish it!"
With that, she left.
After all, they were both still young. There would be plenty of opportunities to spend time together later.
Elsewhere.
The Giant Demon Clan Old Ancestor returned after visiting the Divination Calculator.
This time, he had spent a vast quantity of the Giant Demon Clan's stored Immortal Jade to have a Nascent Soul Transformation Stage Divination Calculator calculate Qin Hao's current location.
These Divination Calculators were absolutely terrifying beings.
For instance, Gao Qiming of the Misty Sect in Zhao Kingdom had once calculated Wang Lin's entire family, resulting in the massacre of the Wang family.
In the original work, a Divination Calculator from a Level 4 Cultivation Nation had even calculated Xu Liguo's location. Had it not been for the Deity Transformation old monster Duanmu Ji, Wang Lin would certainly have been captured by a Nascent Soul Expert of the Corpse Yin Sect.
As for Tian Yunzi and Immortal Emperor Qing Lin, they could calculate without missing anything, even foreseeing events tens of thousands of years in the future.
"A Third-rank Cultivation Nation, Huofen Kingdom?"
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 that the Heavenly Reversal Bead had not yet been exposed.
He planned to eliminate this hidden danger, then investigate the Space Rifts within the Outer Realm Battlefield.
