CHAPTER 520: CHAPTER 512: WHAT, CAN THERE STILL BE DEAD MONEY 7?

Nangong Zhang struggled to maintain the smile on his face, but the veins were already popping on his forehead. He squinted his eyes and squeezed the words through his teeth, "It’s to join, not to marry in."

"Oh, oh, oh, sorry, I was too far away to hear clearly," Qian Qi said apologetically, "You got my heart racing for a second there. To be fair, your son is really impressive, mm-hmm."

Nangong Zhang’s eye twitched, "So..."

Could she give a direct answer to the question?

"I’ve already joined." Qian Qi nodded seriously and said, "The Seven Great Families share me, rest assured, I’ll definitely be fair to all!"

After saying that, she covered her Light Brain, afraid that someone might snatch it, "Well, I’ll be off now! Got things to take care of!"

Watching the girl use her Awakened Skills to quickly depart, Nangong Zhang once again held his forehead in exasperation.

The secretary beside him couldn’t help but ask, "Why didn’t the Family Head forcibly keep her here?"

"You think I didn’t want to? She can kill a Fire Stream Dragon and even solo an S-level dungeon. Can you beat her?" Nangong Zhang replied with a cold laugh, "I’m not stupid."

He used to think Qian Qi was just a clever civilian girl, which is why he wanted Nangong Yan to inject her with the Superpower Inhibitor. But now, seeing her conquer an S-level dungeon in less than half an hour, he realized her power was unfathomable.

Fortunately, Nangong Yan didn’t act rashly before.

If you want to control Qian Qi, you’d have to plan it slowly.

By the way, did she just say she was a little moved by the idea of marrying into the Nangong Family?

Thinking that Nangong Yan’s appearance indeed attracted young girls, Nangong Zhang stood up and said indifferently, "Looks like I should have a good talk with my dear son."

——

Qian Qi finally went to the Su Family.

It’s easiest to get money from the Su Family, without much coaxing, the Su Family’s steward would thoughtfully bring her snacks. After receiving her gratitude payment, Qian Qi went to the manor that the Seven Great Families had promised to build for her.

Her manor was just on the hill next to the Su Family Manor, situated higher up in the mountains, looking across at the Su Family Manor. If one had good eyesight, they could even see the servants in the manor.

When Qian Qi arrived, she found the manor had already taken shape.

The vast villa was reminiscent of the manors of old European nobility, countless rooms were fitted with multi-colored glass windows which looked especially beautiful in the sunlight. The courtyard was astonishingly large, with a vast fountain pool in front of the villa. The center of the fountain was left vacant for placing a giant sculpture, workers were planting grass on the southern side of the manor for Contracted Beast training and recreation.

And next to the lawn, a black instance entrance was floating in mid-air.

That was the A-level dungeon used to house the Poisonous Emperor Python.

Qian Qi headed towards the instance. Upon seeing her, a worker immediately recognized her, "Ah ah ah! You’re, you’re Qian Qi, right?!"

Hearing the worker’s exclamation, other workers also turned their heads. Seeing Qian Qi, their eyes lit up and they surrounded her.

"It’s really Qian Qi!"

"OMG! A living Qian Qi! I actually got to see a living Qian Qi!"

Qian Qi: ...Uh, could there be a dead Qian Qi?

"We’ve all heard about you conquering the S-level dungeon and teaming up with Su Ang to defeat the S-level Fire Stream Dragon!" a worker exclaimed excitedly, "You’re truly amazing!"

"News got out so quickly?" Qian Qi was a little surprised. She thought Su Xingchen would let the topics of doomsday and heroes’ fall ferment for a few days and then reveal her and Su Ang to slap faces, thereby making the masses blindly believe that the Seven Great Families could protect them.

"Yes." The workers nodded, showing her the news on their Light Brains, "Look, the headline even uses ’A perfect match!’"

Qian Qi looked down, seeing the news headline in bold, emphasized font: "A perfect match! Su Ang and Qian Qi defeat the S-level Fire Stream Dragon together! Sister-loving Qian Dafang cries himself to death at home."

Qian Qi: ...?

Why bring up Qian Dafang? What did Qian Dafang do wrong?

The system beside her emitted merciless laughter: [Hahahahahahaha——]

"So you and Mr. Su Ang are..." a worker couldn’t help but gossip, "Already emotionally close over time? Now your manor is even built on the hill next to the Su Family!"

"Although my manor being here has nothing to do with that, however..." Qian Qi didn’t hide it and generously said, "I did talk with him."

"Ah ah ah——!" a female worker couldn’t help but cover her mouth and said excitedly, "I’m going to ship this! You two are really a perfect match! If you don’t get together, I’ll cry my eyes out!"

"So when do you plan to make it official?"

"Will you get married? Will you publicly announce the wedding venue? Or will you live stream the wedding process?"

"When do you plan to have kids? Do you want a boy or a girl? Have you thought about what names to give them?"

"And, and, do you..."

Looking at the workers filled with a frenzy for information, Qian Qi was so startled that she took a step back.

How terrifying.

She was only 20 years old!

Not even 19 yet! She wasn’t even of legal marriage age!

Qian Qi fled, escaping into the A-level dungeon.

The system sighed, [Tsk, tsk, didn’t expect there was something you’d be afraid of.]

"You don’t understand." Qian Qi muttered, "In my place, urging marriage and childbirth is a terrifying thing, it’s practically something engraved in the genes of the older generation."

[Alright~] The system turned away, [Let’s go find the old pythons.]

With the guidance of the system, Qian Qi quickly found the Poisonous Emperor Python King.

But...

In already conquered A-level dungeons, there’s usually a survey station set up, and the Poisonous Emperor Pythons were actually hanging out in the station, mingling with the Awakened Warriors at the station.

Not physically fighting.

Playing games kind of mingling.

The Poisonous Emperor Python King was curled up on a chair, with a computer in front of it, constantly shouting, "This king is speechless, do you have a special technique for losing? All you do is lose, right?"

"Are you into farming? Fattening up the enemy like that?"

"Need me, the king, to carry you when going out into the wilderness, and in games too? What use are you?"

"Damn, ten fingers and you play worse than me with just one tail? With skills this poor, you wouldn’t need to work for a living. Your moves could fill your stomach thrice daily!"

The Awakened Warriors getting scolded dared not make a peep.

Because it’s true as the Python King said, to leech off the network and computers at the station for gaming, the Poisonous Emperor Pythons offered to accompany them to survey dangerous areas, and their formidable power saved them many times.

Compared to that, being scolded for playing poorly wasn’t much.

The Python King continued its tirade, "Mage, you bastard! Not even low on health, why use a health pack? Leave it for this king! How are you so much stingier than that Qian person?"

"Hey, who’s that pulling at me, can’t see I’m right in the middle of something crucial?"

"Tsk, I told you not to pull at me! Can’t the task wait? Are you in a hurry to die—— huh!"

The Python King looked at a head looking exactly like Qian Qi’s slowly descending in front of it, scaring it nearly to wet itself, "Qian, Qian Qi? When did you get here?"

Where’s the brat?

How come it didn’t remind it of someone’s arrival, how embarrassing!

I hope she didn’t hear it complaining about her just now?
