[You smiled and said: "Congratulations, successful unlock."]

[Wan Qingluan's eyes were full of curiosity and excitement: "Play it quickly!"]

[You smiled mischievously: "Come, follow me inside, I'll specially show you something that can't be broadcast on television."]

["Great, great~"]

[At this moment, Old Wang came to interrupt your pleasant mood]

["Young Master, Master Deng and three others are visiting!"]

[You were slightly surprised—Deng Rusong had actually emerged from seclusion, and he should have come together with Old Xie, Old Hu, and Little Deng]

[So you put away your lecherous smile and said to Old Wang: "Wait for me a moment."]

[You took the Book of Years from Wan Qingluan's hand: "I'll download two more memory segments for you, savor them slowly."]

[Wan Qingluan said happily: "I want paid content! Paid content!!"]

[You patted her little head: "Paid content can only be watched with a good friend present."]

["Oh."]

[You put a few more memory segments into the Book of Years, then left with Old Wang]

[Wan Qingluan sat in the lakeside pavilion, holding the Book of Years and obsessively enjoying her own couple moments as if watching a TV drama, exceptionally addictive]

[Old Wang followed behind you and asked: "Young Master, isn't the young mistress coming?"]

[You looked at Old Wang: "Old Wang, who gave you permission to call her young mistress?!"]

["Young Master, even with a knife at my throat, I would still call her young mistress!!"]

[You nodded: "Old Wang, you are a battle-tested warrior, your monthly allowance is doubled this month!"]

["Thank you, Young Master!"]

[You arrived at the main hall and indeed saw the Danxia Sect's Old Xie, Old Hu, Old Deng, and Little Deng all gathered]

[You happily went to greet them: "This is even livelier than New Year's, everyone's here."]

[Deng Rusong excitedly walked over quickly: "Young Master He! Thank you for your referral—Palace Leader Shangguan gifted me the Mind Evolution Art, which helped me begin mastering Divine Micro-Vision!!"]

[As sect leader of Danxia Sect, Deng Rusong's pill refining talent was already top-tier, combined with years of accumulated experience. After intensely studying the Mind Evolution Art for over a year, it was normal for him to begin mastering Divine Micro-Vision]

["Sect Leader Deng, congratulations!"]

[You then looked at Xie Huide's family of three: "You've all returned from traveling the martial world? Didn't have any falling out this time?"]

[Xie Huide and Hu Zhongxuan both shook their heads with wry smiles]

[Xie Huide said: "Brother He, not only did we not have conflicts, but because my heart ailment was resolved, I've advanced to become an eighth-grade pill refiner!"]

[Hearing this news, your eyes lit up]

[Xie Huide possessed exceptional pill refining talent, but in the previous simulation he remained a seventh-grade pill refiner until death, dying with regrets after failing to refine the Reviving Yang Pill]

[In this simulation, Xie Huide finally reached eighth-grade. Though he no longer needed to refine the Reviving Yang Pill, at least he now had the capability]

[You sincerely congratulated him: "Old Xie, congratulations! You and Sect Leader Deng are double happiness arriving together!"]

[Xie Huide laughed heartily, creating a joyful atmosphere]

[Afterward, you chatted with these four for quite some time]

[But you noticed that the usually lively Deng Wanshu seemed very quiet today, only occasionally joining the conversation with a few words]

[You found it strange but didn't say much]

[Later, the four bid you farewell together]

[After seeing them off, you were about to return to the back garden to watch some adult-only content with your good friend]

[But Deng Wanshu returned after leaving]

[You invited Deng Wanshu to sit down again]

["Sister Wanshu, you seemed unhappy earlier. Is there something bothering you that you can share to make me happy?"]

[A layer of gloom covered Deng Wanshu's gentle face as she hesitated: "Brother He, sister has a favor to ask of you!"]

[Seeing Deng Wanshu's serious expression, you replied: "Sister Wanshu, let's hear it."]

["I'd like to ask Brother He to introduce me to Palace Leader Shangguan!"]

[Your eyebrows raised—this was coming right back to yourself]

["Sister Wanshu, if I asked you what you want to see my friend for, you probably wouldn't say, right?"]

[Deng Wanshu nodded: "Brother He, please forgive me for not being able to tell you."]

[You thought to yourself: "Little Wanshu, still not telling me? When I log into my other account, you'll have to tell me everything."]

[Deng Wanshu took out a small wooden box to give you as compensation: "Brother He, I don't have anything valuable, please accept these medicinal pills."]

[But you waved your hand: "Sister Wanshu, no need for such expense."]

["It's no expense, I stole them all from my brother."]

["Sister Wanshu, having you is Sect Leader Deng's blessing."]

["It's not that great!"]

[You ultimately didn't accept Deng Wanshu's pills. You gave her a piece of your calligraphy, told her a specific time, and said she just needed to go to the Palace of Ten Thousand Dreams at that time]

[Deng Wanshu took your poorly written characters and showered them with high-level praise]

[She praised you so well it made you feel great—you even considered reimbursing her travel expenses]

[After seeing off Deng Wanshu, you returned to the back garden]

[Wan Qingluan was still giggling while obsessively enjoying her couple moments with you, like holding a tablet and binge-watching a drama]

[The memories you currently put in the Book of Years were all early video materials from your third simulation together]

[None had reached paid content yet]

[Much less the later scenes where you died twice in her arms—otherwise she would have immersed herself even more deeply]

["Children shouldn't watch too much of the Book of Years, your eyes will become nearsighted." You walked over smiling]

[Wan Qingluan looked up at you: "Good friend, I need to return to the Extermination Sect."]

[You were slightly surprised: "Why go back?"]

["I don't want the gap between us to be too big!" Wan Qingluan said with determined expression]

[The twenty-year-old Wan Qingluan was at the Organ Fortifying realm. Although this could be called divine speed, it was truly inadequate compared to a player like you who could accumulate realms bit by bit]

[Although even if Wan Qingluan never cultivated again from now on, you could still let her live a comfortable life]

But you knew the esteemed Extermination Sect Saintess wasn't someone without ambition who would indulge all day in the Book of Years watching dramas

[You smilingly took the Book of Years and put in a few more memory segments: "Come find me when you finish watching, I'll prepare something exciting for you."]

[Wan Qingluan: "Prepare something exciting!"]

[Afterward, Wan Qingluan left He Manor]

[You stood for a long time until that bright figure had long disappeared around the street corner]

[A moment later, you collected your emotions and soared into the sky with a roar]

[You went to the zoo, gathered all the animals with Source Power, and flew directly toward the Qianming Mountain Range]

[After reaching the Qianming Mountain Range, you selected a piece of land about a hundred miles from Dong Zhijie's research institute]

[You released vast and terrifying Source Power to split mountains and crack earth]

[You spent three days continuously working, opening up a new zoo site]

[You returned to Youtong County and brought the He siblings to the new zoo in the Qianming Mountain Range]

[From now on, the He siblings would only raise small animals here, helping provide you with potent beast blood]

[Dong Zhijie would continue his research with your support—you had a feeling his research would come in handy]

[You also found twenty martial artists to guard the zoo. As the zoo's scale gradually expanded, manpower would inevitably be needed]

[After making proper arrangements, you went to the Palace of Ten Thousand Dreams]

[Wei Xia and Lin Kaifeng had been safely brought to the Palace of Ten Thousand Dreams]

[And Lin Mo would be born in one month]

[You originally planned to have Li Jiang send two imperial physicians to deliver Wei Xia's baby, but you didn't completely trust Li Jiang]

[So you secretly found two of the most famous midwives in Liuzhou to stay at the Palace of Ten Thousand Dreams, ready to deliver Wei Xia's baby at any time]

[Once Lin Mo was born in one month, you would begin your grand immortal cultivation enterprise—thinking about it made you a little excited]

[One day, while comprehending the Mountain-Cleaving Sword Earth Source at the mountain top villa, Sang Yi came to your door and reported that a woman named Deng Wanshu requested an audience]

[You opened your eyes and murmured: "Sister Wanshu, you really came!"]
