Above the Qin Family.
The enormous Flying Boat slowly decelerated, finally coming to a halt above the Qin Family.
Feeling the Flying Boat stabilize, Su Xian'er hurried forward, pressed herself against it, and looked down below.
Through the transparent windows made entirely of crystal, Su Xian'er was finally able to glimpse the Qin Family in its entirety.
Below, dense buildings stretched across several hundred li.
Even from high in the air, Su Xian'er could sense the grandeur and immensity of those buildings.
What shocked Su Xian'er even more was that the entire Qin Family had actually been built upon a floating island!
Su Xian'er could not imagine how much energy it would take to keep such an island suspended in the sky.
It was probably an astronomical figure...
Perhaps only a top-tier family like the Qin Family, standing at the very pinnacle of the Sky Profound Continent, possessed such boldness and capability...
Compared to the Qin Family, the Su Family was practically a country bumpkin...
"Is this the Qin Family?"
Su Xian'er hesitantly asked Qin Jiuge beside her.
Although Qin Jiuge had brought her here, Su Xian'er was very clear about her own status and place.
Even becoming a servant or maid would be enough to let the Su Family soar to great heights!
As for becoming his principal wife, it was something she did not even dare dream of!
Thus, whenever she spoke to Qin Jiuge, she was exceedingly cautious.
"Yes, this is the Qin Family. It will also be the place where you live from now on."
As he spoke, Qin Jiuge took hold of Su Xian'er's soft little hand and leaped down from the Flying Boat.
Su Xian'er's strength was still too weak. Without someone to help her, she simply could not withstand the fierce winds from such a leap.
As they continued descending, the Qin Family's grand, imposing structures and its faintly palpable heritage made Su Xian'er deeply feel that she had made the right choice in coming to the Qin Family!
Even if she were merely Qin Jiuge's most insignificant concubine in the Qin Family, it would still be far more glorious than remaining in the Su Family!
Holding Su Xian'er's hand, Qin Jiuge descended directly into the residence of his own branch.
The moment they landed, Su Xian'er saw an old man flying over through the air.
The old man appeared to be around fifty years old. Clad in a purple robe, he looked noble and imposing.
Just as Su Xian'er was wondering about the newcomer's identity, the old man landed and said sternly, "You brat, the Divine Son Competition is only a few months away."
"And you still ran off to fool around at a time like this?"
"Even if you possess the Chaos Body, you cannot be so careless."
The old man's voice boomed like a great bell. Every word he spoke felt like a heavy hammer smashing against Su Xian'er's heart.
Hearing the old man speak, Su Xian'er finally figured out his identity.
The head of this branch of the Qin Family, Qin Ming!
And also Qin Jiuge's father.
At once, she felt the nervousness of an ugly daughter-in-law meeting her father-in-law...
The Qin Family head won't look down on me, will he...? After all, the Qin Family is one of the four Immortal Imperial Clans... and Young Master Qin is so outstanding...
While Su Xian'er was agonizing over this, Qin Ming noticed her as well.
At once, Qin Ming's thick brows furrowed.
Then Qin Jiuge heard Qin Ming's voice transmission.
"You went out this time just for some woman?"
"As my son, what woman could you possibly fail to get? Did you really have to go out and find one yourself?"
"Do you know how important the Divine Son Competition is?"
Hearing this, Qin Jiuge gave a helpless, bitter smile. Too lazy to waste words with Qin Ming, he directly activated his Twin Pupils.
In an instant, two additional pupils appeared within Qin Jiuge's tiger-like eyes!
They looked extraordinarily mystical.
Though Qin Jiuge did not manifest any phenomenon in order to keep a low profile, Qin Ming was a man of experience. Seeing two pupils suddenly appear in Qin Jiuge's eyes, he could scarcely believe it, even stammering as he spoke.
"This... this is... Twin Pupils?"
Qin Ming knew full well how formidable Twin Pupils were!
It was a special constitution that did not lose out to any Divine Body!
It could be said that those who possessed Twin Pupils were born combat prodigies, with futures beyond measure!
Across the Sky Profound Continent, nearly every person with Twin Pupils stood at the very peak of the pyramid!
Yet what Qin Ming could not understand was that Qin Jiuge had only just awakened his Chaos Body...
And now he had awakened Twin Pupils as well?
Weren't these two special constitutions both supposed to be innate?
How had Qin Jiuge only awakened them when he was nearly an adult?
This son of his... truly knew how to give him surprises!
With the Chaos Body added to Twin Pupils, that was simply incredible!
Immediately, Qin Ming no longer concerned himself with Qin Jiuge suddenly running off and returning with a woman...
Laughing heartily, he patted Qin Jiuge on the shoulder. "Good, good, good! As expected of my son!"
"With such a foundation, the Divine Son Competition... truly amounts to nothing for you."
"You've really given your father a tremendous surprise!"
Qin Ming's heart was filled with excitement and exhilaration.
Originally, he had been worried about the Divine Son Competition a few months from now.
Qin Jiuge's talent could only rank second, and compared to that number-one heavenly prodigy, there was still a considerable gap.
Yet in less than a month, Qin Jiuge had first awakened the Chaos Body, then gained Twin Pupils.
With these two combined, who knew how terrifying Qin Jiuge's potential would become!
Even according to Qin Ming's memories, from ancient times to the present, no one had ever possessed both the Chaos Body and Twin Pupils, these two astonishing constitutions, at once!
It could be said that Qin Jiuge's future was destined to be glorious!
Besides, he had prepared a gift for Qin Jiuge as well...
After laughing loudly, Qin Ming gave Qin Jiuge a mysterious smile. "This time, you've given your father a huge surprise. Your father also has a surprise for you!"
As he spoke, Qin Ming grabbed Qin Jiuge's hand.
The next moment, Qin Jiuge and Qin Ming appeared inside a Secret Chamber.
Qin Jiuge was somewhat curious.
He had already displayed his Twin Pupils, yet Qin Ming still said he had a surprise for him.
What could possibly make Qin Ming so confident?
Could this so-called surprise possibly compare to Twin Pupils?
Qin Jiuge was faintly expectant...
Before Qin Jiuge could ask, Qin Ming began explaining on his own.
"Son, besides Divine Bodies, there are quite a few constitutions in this world that can rival Divine Bodies. Some are even enough to rival the top three Divine Bodies."
"Among them is one known as the Supreme Bone!"
"Those who possess a Supreme Bone are born Supremes. So long as they do not perish midway, they are destined to reach the Supreme Realm!"
"Although this Supreme Bone cannot compare to your Twin Pupils or Chaos Body, it is still a fairly decent constitution!"
Qin Ming's tone was extremely proud.
Qin Jiuge froze.
Of course he knew about the Supreme Bone!
But what did it have to do with him?
Suppressing his curiosity, Qin Jiuge looked at Qin Ming and asked, "Father, I do know about the Supreme Bone, but what does it have to do with me? Could it be that someone from our branch has produced a Supreme Bone?"
When Qin Jiuge asked, Qin Ming did not answer. He merely smiled and nodded, tacitly admitting it.
