Fairy, please step aside, I've taken a liking to your man.

"I'd like to propose a toast to you both!"

When Shen Wenwen entered the banquet hall, Ye Qianqian had already poured the wine. Seeing Shen Wenwen, she immediately stood up and pulled her to sit next to her: "Wenwen, it's been so long! You've become even more beautiful!"

"Sister Qianqian is even more beautiful!"

Shen Wenwen sat down with a smile and began to chat with Ye Qianqian about their time at Qingbei Taoist Academy.

"After you arrived on Qiyuan Star, Qingbei Dao Academy experienced another major surge of demonic spirits and several smaller surges, but all of them were repelled..."

The four chatted about their experiences since they parted ways over the years. Shen Wenwen and An Li had a simpler life, spending their days cultivating or taking care of the children in the Shen family.

Although Meimei and others helped take care of the children, and Teacher Yang Xiao provided private tutoring, putting ten children together made a lot of noise every day, which gave Shen Wenwen a headache.

She vowed that she would never get married in her life and would never take care of anyone else's children again.

Ye Qianqian's experience is much more complicated. Over the years, she has traveled all over the world and entered many secret realms, gaining a lot.

She recounted her experiences over the years in detail, talking for an entire afternoon before she had covered most of it. Finally, she said rather mysteriously, "During my travels, I also visited the Dragon Palace Secret Realm. I didn't find the inheritance of the ancient dragon race, but I did discover a teleportation array."

At this point, Ye Qianqian paused.

"A teleportation array?"

Shen Wenwen looked at Ye Qianqian in surprise: "Where does it lead?"

Ye Qianqian smiled without saying a word, picked up her wine glass and continued drinking.

"Wenwen, Catherine and Hepburn should go to sleep. Let's go and put them to bed."

An Li stood up apologetically and looked at Ye Qianqian: "Qianqian, you and your husband drink first. We'll see if we can make it back later. These two kids are hard to put to sleep; they always make a fuss until the middle of the night."

"You go ahead with your work, I'm not in a hurry."

Ye Qianqian stood up with a smile. Shen Wenwen, being perceptive, understood that this woman wanted to make demands, and that Sister-in-law An Li wanted to give Ye Qianqian some space.

She pouted and stood up, saying, "Sigh, after taking care of the older one, I have to take care of the younger one. When will I, as the aunt, ever get a proper rest?"

She took An Li's arm as they walked out of the banquet hall, and whispered, "Sister-in-law, are you really that comfortable letting her be with my brother?"

"What are you worried about?"

An Li patted An Li's hand and walked towards the inner courtyard: "Back in school, she couldn't beat me, let alone now!"

The former campus belle of Tsinghua and Peking Universities, with a face full of arrogance.

Even though she is now a mother of a 12-year-old child, and even though she has taken charge of the entire inner quarters of the Shen family, An Li's confidence remains as strong as ever.

An Li immediately flattered her: "People say that childhood sweethearts can't compare to those who fall from the sky, but with you, sister-in-law, even the most powerful falling from the sky has to obediently lie down."

"Of course, when we go to sleep at night, your sister-in-law Qingqing has to obediently lick me..."

An Li stopped mid-sentence, blushing.

Shen Wenwen was listening intently when An Li stopped talking, and asked with some confusion, "Why did you stop talking, sister-in-law? What was Sister-in-law Qingqing licking for you?"

"There's nothing there. Let's go, let's go. These two little ones must be having a blast. Meimei just spoils them."

An Li's face flushed red, and she accidentally let something slip.

Shen Wenwen was full of curiosity, but she didn't ask any more questions. Instead, she silently took out a communication talisman.

In this new era, cultivators can simply consult the Spirit Network if they have any questions.

When Shen Wenwen saw the messy search results, her face turned red.

What on earth is all this?!

……

"Can you tell me now?"

Shen Bai looked at Ye Qianqian, but Ye Qianqian said cautiously, "Activate the formation. This is an absolute secret and cannot be overheard by outsiders."

"good!"

Shen Bai's curiosity was gradually piqued. This Ye Qianqian was so mysterious, could it be that she had really discovered a new planet?

After activating the array in the banquet hall to completely prevent outsiders from spying, he looked at Ye Qianqian again.

"You haven't given me a personal training session in ages."

Upon seeing the formation rise, Ye Qianqian immediately lost her previous reserve. She walked to Shen Bai's side, her face full of resentment.

"Cough... Isn't this due to the recent Great Spirit Tide?"

Shen Bai's expression was somewhat unnatural.

I've been so busy lately that I've forgotten to visit my old classmates.

Ye Qianqian rolled her eyes at him, then said in a sweet voice, "Do you want to know where the teleportation array leads?"

"I'll listen if you tell me, but I won't force you if you don't."

Shen Bai's nonchalant attitude infuriated Ye Qianqian.

Ever since the Qingbei Taoist Academy, she'd been completely under this jerk's thumb. She suddenly lifted one leg and put it on Shen Bai's shoulder: "Isn't this splits private lesson your favorite? I'll give you a planet after you finish it."

"A planet?"

Shen Bai finally looked at her seriously. He looked down and saw Ye Qianqian's skirt sliding down her smooth, long legs.

Beneath the fairy-like dress are the most fashionable sheer stockings of today.

The skirt slid down smoothly, and then nothing was left.

It's been a long time since we last saw her, and the young lady's figure has become even more stunning, with a perfectly executed split.

Shen Bai couldn't help but stand up and write the character "土" (earth).

Ye Qianqian nodded in satisfaction, panting, "It's been so long since I had a private lesson, I miss it so much."

"Then enjoy it."

Shen Bai took a big step forward and immediately completed the split, his feet pointing upwards, the character "土" (earth) turned horizontally.

"Yes, yes, that's exactly the feeling!"

Ye Qianqian's brows relaxed comfortably. After pondering for a moment, she finally spoke, "I have studied the teleportation array in the Dragon Palace Secret Realm carefully. It seems to be a super-large-scale, ultra-long-distance teleportation array that leads to a distant planet or an unknown place. Its complexity is much greater than that of current teleportation arrays."

I tried it out and found that the magic array worked normally. I didn't dare to go there rashly, so I set up a concealment array to cover it up.

I've thought about it a lot, and I've finally decided to come and discuss it with you.

"Why didn't you discuss it with your family?"

Shen Bai was a little curious. It would be right to tell the family about such a good thing as soon as possible, especially since the Ye family is a well-established family in the capital with a very deep family foundation.

"They want me to marry someone else, but I disagree."

Ye Qianqian, who had been in high spirits, suddenly grew impatiently and said, "Moreover, they want me to marry Chu Chen."

Chu Chen?

An ancient name popped into Shen Bai's mind.

The guy who was once the new king of the Dragon Tiger Academy, who was attacked by extraterrestrial demons and lost his potential for advancement?

"Doesn't your family know that Chu Chen's potential has reached its limit?"

Shen Bai was a little unsure what was going on: "Marrying him means you'll be living the life of a widow?"

With no room for advancement, Chu Chen's lifespan is already nearing its end. Ye Qianqian is a genius girl; wouldn't it be a joke for her to marry Chu Chen like this?

"Chu Chen must have had some kind of fortuitous encounter on Qiyuan Star. His physical cultivation level has broken through again and again. Now he is a Nascent Soul True Monarch. With his physical strength alone, he can easily defeat ordinary early Nascent Soul cultivators."

Ye Qianqian said resentfully, "Even though Chu Chen and I grew up together, this guy has ulterior motives, and I don't want to marry him."

This is partly why Ye Qianqian has been traveling around and hasn't returned to the Ye family in recent years.

She also has pride.

In addition, she already had someone she loved, so she didn't want to go back and suffer that humiliation.

After understanding Ye Qianqian's meaning, Shen Bai nodded and said, "If you have nowhere to go, you can stay at my Shen residence from now on!"

"Is it really possible?"

Ye Qianqian immediately became excited and almost bent into a bow while doing the splits.

She kept drawing and releasing the bow, and the arrow on the bow moved back and forth, faster and faster.

"As long as you're not afraid of what others say."

Shen Bai reached out to comfort Ye Qianqian, who was so moved that tears streamed down her face: "As long as I have private lessons, I'm not afraid."

"Let's change positions then, let me check your horse stance."

Shen Bai sat back down in his chair, and Ye Qianqian quickly assumed a standard horse stance: "I'll only tell you about this teleportation array. I estimate that no one has discovered its existence yet. If you have time, you can arrange for someone to investigate it first."

"No rush!"

While checking Ye Qianqian's horse stance skills, Shen Bai said, "Qiyuan Star has not been fully controlled yet. Rashly opening a new map will only cause more trouble."

"Once we've established a solid base here, it's not too late to explore."

Shen Bai knew what a new planet meant and was well aware of the significant first-mover advantage he would gain if he were the first to set foot on it, but he wasn't in a hurry at all.

Moreover, he was not prepared to be a pawn.

"If you're willing, you can hand this magic array over to the Great Emperor in exchange for enough resources to help you advance to the Nascent Soul Ancestor level. Then, have the Great Emperor send someone ahead as a vanguard to confirm that there's no danger before we go."

Ye Qianqian was stunned for a moment, and she suddenly realized the difference between herself and Shen Bai now.

When you're all alone and discover something good, your first thought is to keep it for yourself and use it as a resource for your advancement.

After becoming the head of the family, Shen Bai's way of thinking became more comprehensive.

Can we swallow a whole new planet?

Can the Shen family swallow it up?

Let alone the Shen family, even if you add the Wanpu family of Shen Bai's lover, Wanka, it's probably too much for them to swallow.

Putting everything else aside, just getting in and out of the Dragon Palace Secret Realm alone is a huge problem.

How many people would it take to develop a planet?

What if that place is also a world of cultivation? What if the cultivation forces there are even stronger?

Then what makes me and the Shen family stand on that planet?

Conversely, by contributing this planet in exchange for resources, one can gain the initiative and maximize benefits.

It may seem like they're giving up some benefits, but in reality, they're gaining even more.

"Shen, I've realized I'm missing so many private coaching sessions!"

"It's not too late to catch up on lessons now."

"Can we make up for it for today?"

"So thirsty?"

"I don't care, I want it."
