Choosing a B-Grade Building

"Young Master Yang, the family's monthly allowance and initial Faith Points investment will be transferred into your Divine Kingdom this afternoon. In addition, there is one B-Grade building for you to choose from."

Yang Fan lowered his head and looked at the contents on the electronic tablet.

"Hundred Spirits Blood Pool: Converts flesh and blood into Blood Pills, which can accelerate cultivation. Long-term consumption can alter one's aptitude.

Spirit Armory: Automatically produces weapons when ore is supplied. The weapons' strength depends on the grade of the ore itself, and it can mass-produce up to E-Grade Weapons.

Mechanical Heart: Can slowly improve the physical structure of believers, causing their bodies to gradually resemble those of Mechanical Civilization."

Unlike the marketplace, the descriptions on the electronic tablet were extremely concise. Other than the names, the explanations of the buildings' effects were equally simple.

"Senior Zhan, are there only three B-Grade buildings to choose from?"

"B-Grade buildings are strategic resources. Even the Luo Family does not have many available for talented disciples to choose from."

Zhan Yunxiao's words were a tactful way of putting it. Yang Fan was merely a talented outsider. Although the family had promised him a B-Grade building, it would certainly be among the least valuable options.

"May I ask what advice you have, Senior Zhan?"

Zhan Yunxiao was, after all, a Demigod, and he was now Yang Fan's guide. Naturally, Yang Fan had to make good use of this connection.

"That depends on the direction you choose, Young Master. If you plan to develop toward Mechanical Civilization in the future, then simply choose the Mechanical Heart.

If you want to make Divine Kingdom Investments in the early stages to earn a large amount of Faith Points, then use them later to nourish your Divine Kingdom and strengthen your believers, the Spirit Armory is a good choice.

As for the Hundred Spirits Blood Pool, it is more well-rounded. The Blood Pills it produces can increase believers' strength, and selling them also offers a fairly high annualized return." Zhan Yunxiao explained his understanding.

Yang Fan pondered for a moment before deciding to choose the Hundred Spirits Blood Pool.

With the Luo Family's investment this time, coupled with his Evolution Talent, Yang Fan was confident that his ability to earn resources far surpassed that of others.

By comparison, improving his believers' strength was more important.

The school competition this time was a perfect example. If he had chosen to reinvest all his Faith Points into his Divine Kingdom in pursuit of so-called compound interest, he could never have achieved such outstanding results in the competition and received investment from a great family like the Luo Family.

Resources were important in the Divine Kingdom Era, but true strength itself remained the core.

"I choose the Hundred Spirits Blood Pool," Yang Fan confirmed.

Zhan Yunxiao nodded. "The application will be approved this afternoon. The family will send the resources to your inbox. I have already added you as a friend in the Virtual World. If you have any problems in the future, you can contact me directly. Divine Kingdom resource allocation, family benefit applications, even trivial matters of daily life—if you need anything, just let me know."

"Then thank you."

"No need to be polite. This is my job," Zhan Yunxiao said seriously.

After arriving at Yangcheng Villa, Zhan Yunxiao bowed to Yang Fan and left.

He was the guide assigned to Yang Fan by the Luo Family, not a nanny. He still had other matters to attend to.

Besides, with the Virtual World, he could help Yang Fan remotely whenever Yang Fan had any questions.

Yangcheng Villa was built in the center of Yang County and offered excellent privacy. After the moving company placed the items in the front yard, its workers took their leave.

At that moment, Luo Rou pushed open the living room door.

"Husband." Luo Rou revealed a sweet smile.

Yang Fan looked at her and froze for a moment.

Luo Rou's skin was now fair and tender, seemingly soft enough to break with a breath. Her entire body brimmed with rich life energy, making her look like a young girl who had just come of age.

Most importantly, the noble aura of a great family around her dazzled Yang Fan so much that he could barely look away.

Yang Fan had thought that Liu Ruyan's training on several occasions had given him some resistance to beauty, but only now did he realize that his state of mind still needed cultivation.

"You..."

"Hello, Mother. Hello, Father." Before Yang Fan could speak, Luo Rou walked over to his parents and respectfully bowed.

Looking at the princess-like girl before her, Sun Rong felt as though none of this was real.

"Are you really my daughter-in-law?" Sun Rong rubbed her eyes hard.

"Of course I am. However, my Divine Kingdom is damaged, and I do not have much lifespan left. I am the one who has married above my station. Before I die, I only hope to have a son or daughter with my husband. Then I will be content." Luo Rou squeezed out a tear, looking pitiful and delicate enough to inspire sympathy.

The moment she heard that, Sun Rong became anxious. She turned around, fiercely smacked the back of Yang Fan's head, then grabbed his ear and dragged him in front of Luo Rou.

"What nonsense are you talking about, daughter-in-law? Don't I know exactly what this brat is worth? The fact that you can take a liking to him is a blessing he cultivated for ten lifetimes. How could you possibly be marrying above your station? From now on, you will be in charge of this household. If he dares bully you, Old Yang and I will break his dog legs."

Sun Rong was straightforward by nature and kind-hearted to begin with. Seeing Luo Rou look so pitiful, she instantly wished Luo Rou were her own daughter.

As for her biological son, Yang Fan, this loving mother had already thrown him beyond the clouds.

Seeing Yang Fan's stunned expression, a trace of slyness flashed through Luo Rou's eyes. She could not help feeling pleased. You scumbag. With such kind and sensible parents, how did they give birth to a freeloader like you? Hmph. As long as I'm alive, don't even think about bullying me.

"Daughter-in-law, the sun is strong outside. Hurry upstairs and rest in your room. Your mother and I will handle these things," Yang Tiexin said as he carried a large moving bag.

"Thank you, Dad." Luo Rou nodded.

Although she had taken the Water of Life, her Divine Kingdom was now like a room leaking wind from every direction. That life energy would slowly dissipate, so even as a God, she needed to reduce her activity.

Yang Fan was about to follow her upstairs when his mother, Sun Rong, called out to him.

"Yang Fan, get over here and help."

Yang Fan looked puzzled.

Their family did not have many belongings. There was no need for him to lend a hand.

However, his mother had given the order, and Yang Fan could not argue. He could only obediently go outside to carry furniture.

"You little brat, such a wonderful girl must be treated well. If I find out you've made Rou suffer, I won't let you off," Sun Rong quietly warned him.

"No, I didn't."

"Then why did my daughter-in-law look like she was about to cry just now?"

"How would I know why she looked like that?" Yang Fan's face twitched.

Although he had said some bastardly things that morning, Luo Rou's presence then had been even stronger than his own. She was completely different from how she had acted just now.

Moreover, Luo Rou had now returned to her original appearance. Yang Fan himself was full of questions and had wanted to go upstairs to ask her about it.

"There's nothing wrong with becoming a live-in son-in-law, and this is the Luo Family. You've gotten an enormous advantage, so don't be ungrateful. From now on, stay home and spoil your wife properly, understand?" Yang Tiexin wore an equally solemn expression.

After confirming that Yang Fan had become the Luo Family's live-in son-in-law, Yang Tiexin, as his father, did not feel the slightest dissatisfaction. He only worried that this happiness might vanish in an instant.
