Simulation-Initiated!

After Wang Xuance left, the Zither Music in the pavilion stopped.

Ye Jianwei hesitated for a moment, but finally spoke:

"Young Master, why did you lend a helping hand to such a despicable person?"

"A petty person?"

Qin Wangchuan was picking up his teacup when he heard this, and he paused slightly, looking up at her.

"Yes, sir."

Ye Jianwei her head, her tone resolute and unwavering, "The Wang Clan is, and so was the Zhou Clan back then."

"Anyone who has ever intended to harm you, Young Master, is, in Jianwei's eyes, a villain."

Her logic is simple and direct, and her likes and dislikes are so distinct that they border on obsession.

Qin Wangchuan was her heaven, her earth, her everything.

All those who have tried to harm or hinder the Young Master, regardless of their motives, are despicable villains.

Qin Wangchuan put down his teacup, gently shook his head, his tone gentle yet carrying a calm understanding of the world:

"I wouldn't call myself a petty person."

"Whether it's the Wang Clan or the Zhou Clan, in the end, they're just making what they believe is the best choice on their respective paths."

Upon Ye Jianwei, Ye Jianwei felt a slight dissipation of the resentment she felt due to the Wang Clan, but she still pursed her lips.

"Your His Highness!"

A clear report suddenly came from downstairs.

A Qin Clan Disciple hurried upstairs, holding a Jade Slip imprinted with cloud patterns in both hands:

"A secret letter has been delivered to the Yun Clan."

Qin Wangchuan took the Jade Slip, scanned it with his Divine Sense, and a rather amused expression appeared on his face.

The letter began with the usual Lineage greetings and inquiries about his recent situation. Then, it subtly mentioned that the Yun Clan was also another home for him, and that he should find some time to visit the Yun Clan.

Finally, he mentioned it seemingly casually:

In the current generation of the Yun Clan, a "Wuwang Immortal Physique" has already been born, and will soon be heading to the Ancient Dragon Minor Realm of the Glazed Realm for training.

I hope that my relative Qin Wangchuan will take good care of me at that time.

"The Yun Clan... Immortal Body?"

He murmured softly, a thoughtful look flashing in his eyes.

Heavenly Mystery Yun Clan, my mother's ancestral home.

There had been scattered rumors before that the Yun Clan had hidden away an Immortal Body, but it turns out to be true.

However, although both "Immortal Body" and "Immortal Physique" contain the word "immortal," their meanings are completely different.

"Since they've spoken, it's not unreasonable to offer some assistance."

After crushing the Jade Slip, Qin Wangchuan sat down again and beckoned to Ye Jianwei.

Ye Jianwei understood, got up and gracefully walked around the jade table, obediently snuggled into his arms, and found a comfortable position.

Once the relationship crosses that boundary, the physical distance naturally shrinks as well.

This kind of intimacy has gradually become a habit.

Qin Wangchuan wrapped one arm around her waist and used the other hand to stroke the Silver Bell that dangled from her neck.

The body of the bell is slightly cool, and the tiny cloud pattern of the word "Chuan" on the edge feels clear to the touch on the fingertips.

"Are you planning to wear this all the time and never take it off?"

A warm breath brushed past, Ye Jianwei's ears instantly turned bright red. Her body trembled slightly in his arms, but she buried her face even deeper, her voice barely a whisper, "... Because, I am the Young Master's... puppy, so I should... wear it."

In fact, her first bell was a gift from Qin Wangchuan.

That's when the idea began to take shape—to wear it around her neck so that everyone could immediately tell who she belonged to.

Back then, their relationship wasn't as close as it is now, and she ultimately couldn't bring herself to say it.

But things are different now.

Whenever Ye Jianwei thought of the intense heat that almost melted her Divine Soul when she was intimate with the Young Master, she felt a soft, warm current spread through her entire body.

This bell does indeed look quite shy when others see it.

But the words the Young Master spoke when he was ten years old still echo in my ears.

Don't always try to escape from problems.

So what if I'm shy? I'll get used to it!

"And she even became a puppy."

Qin Wangchuan chuckled softly, taking it as just playful banter between the two of them, and stopped teasing her.

After adjusting his position while holding her, he looked ahead and brought up the System Interface.

[Remaining Simulation Count: 22]

"It's so nice to have someone help me with the task!"

He thought to himself, "I can get the reward just by lying down."

His gaze shifted to the increasingly clear pink Dragon Gate in the distant sky, and with a slight thought, he activated the system's Directional Simulation function.

[Directional Simulation Started]

[Please select target--]

[Pillfire Secret Realm]

[Sage Immortal Cave]

[Demon-Sealing Ancient Well]

[Fallen Sun Abyss]

[Ancient Dragon Minor Realm] (Not yet open)

"It's not activated yet, so it can't be simulated?"

As Qin Wangchuan thought this, his consciousness instinctively drifted toward the option point in the Ancient Dragon Minor Realm.

Surprisingly, it's not entirely impossible to simulate.

[This Secret Realm has never been opened, and no information can be obtained. Performing Directional Simulation requires 3 Simulation Count.]

[Continue?]

"The price can still go up..."

Qin Wangchuan raised an eyebrow slightly.

The original 22 Simulation Count were enough for 11 regular simulations.

But now it deducts 3 times at a time, so at most it can only simulate 7 times.

"Save the money if you should, spend it if you should."

After a brief deliberation, he decided to continue.

[Simulation begins.]

[Remaining Simulation Count: 19]

[You are Chen Mo, the eldest son of the Xuantian Pavilion Patriarch, ordered to participate in the Ancient Dragon Minor Realm mission.]

[Your mission is to seize the Dragon Qi, bring it back to nourish your Lineage, and at the same time, make contact with Qin Wangchuan as much as possible.]

"Contact me?"

Upon seeing this, Qin Wangchuan had a question mark in his mind, but after thinking about it again, he realized it was normal.

The Xuantian Pavilion is currently nominally under the name of the Wen Dao Palace, which may have made them feel uneasy. Therefore, it is reasonable for them to try to contact their "behind-the-scenes boss".

As for Chen Mo, I think I met him once before at the Wandao Academy, and my impression of him wasn't bad.

[Day 0 of entering the Secret Realm]

Your attempts to find Divine Son Qin were fruitless; the Qin Clan stood like a high mountain, easily blocking all your attempts and ideas.

However, you were not discouraged; everything was as expected.

After all, although the Xuantian Pavilion has a wide influence, it is ultimately just a force in Upper Thousand Provinces, not even worthy of being called "Undying," let alone compared to the Immortal Court Imperial Clan that shake the heavens.

[Day 1 of entering the Secret Realm]

On this day, after you had finished your rest, you saw that the crimson crack in the sky suddenly expanded violently, forming a majestic and ferocious dragon Dragon Gate.

Instead of rushing there immediately, you lingered near the entrance, clinging to a sliver of hope, hoping to bump into Divine Son Qin, even if it was just to become acquainted with him.

However, you failed.

You waited all day, until most of the cultivators had already entered the Secret Realm, but you still hadn't seen the figure of that Divine Son.

Disappointed, you had no choice but to take your entourage and follow the crowd into the Ancient Dragon Minor Realm.

"Um?"

Upon seeing this, Qin Wangchuan's brows furrowed almost imperceptibly.

"You waited all day and didn't see me?"

His intuition told him that something was wrong.

Given his own style of doing things and the importance he attached to this matter, he shouldn't have delayed until most people were inside before setting off.

Unless... it was done intentionally?

Or is there another arrangement?

Qin Wangchuan suppressed his questions and continued reading.

[Day 2 of entering the Secret Realm]

The Ancient Dragon Minor Realm is brimming with Dragon Qi, which is exceptionally pure.

These Dragon Qi are the Origin Source essence of the True Dragon Tribe.

It's called "seizing the Dragon Qi," but you know in your heart that without an extraordinary fortuitous opportunity, this "seizing" largely means "abducting" a True Dragon home.

But that's easier said than done.

The Dragon Girl is so proud, and with such a long lifespan, she must be very knowledgeable.

Furthermore, the True Dragon Tribe typically makes contracts with those they admire, making betrayal impossible.

Unless you can defeat the person who has the contract... this means that bringing a Dragon Girl or Dragon Son back to your clan is as difficult as ascending to heaven.

After much deliberation, you turned your attention to your forte—trading.
