"This..."

Old Qin scratched his head. It really does seem to make sense, huh? But he shook his head.

"Forget it, I can't handle this. Let that boy decide for himself when the time comes."

Old Qin led his wife and granddaughter to the office.

Sang Sheng turned her head. "Where's Master Zhu Hong? Hasn't he been looking for your help with the Cultivation and Evolution of the Earth Dragon lately?"

At the mention of this, Qin Erlong shook his head helplessly. "Where else could he be? Master Zhu and Old Liu have both gone mad these days. They nearly had an accident just a couple of days ago."

Sang Sheng frowned. "What happened?"

"It's Su Ping, that darn kid. I don't know what kind of spell he cast on those two to get them so obsessed. Now they're both at that kid's base day in and day out, without even a moment for tea or fishing. Just the other day, I don't know what they were doing, but there was an explosion. It almost buried the three of them underground, and yet, when they came out, they were still laughing."

"Ah? Is Su Ping okay? Still laughing? He wasn't blown silly, was he?" Qin Xiaoxue's face suddenly tensed with worry.

Sang Sheng rolled her eyes at her granddaughter and frowned slightly. "What kind of trouble has that brat stirred up again?"

Qin Erlong thought it over and decided not to hide anything. "It's said to be Paperman's new research, involving a completely new Super-Rank Skill research direction. And apparently, the opportunity and treasures were obtained in the Magic Capital. Do you know about this?"

"Hmm?" Sang Sheng blinked. When did this happen? How was I unaware? Su Ping was under my watch the entire time he was in the Magic Capital. He certainly caused quite a stir, but I don't recall hearing anything about this. I knew about Paperman, but wasn't that a new Evolution for Paperman? What does it have to do with Super-Rank Skills? Besides, it hasn't even been a full month since this youngster returned from the Magic Capital after New Year's. Could there have been such a significant change in just one month?

Having said that, Qin Erlong suddenly remembered something else. "Right, that boy also specifically asked me a few days ago about your exact return date. He said he had prepared a particularly special gift for you and Xiao Xue, acting all mysterious. I have no idea what trick he's up to now."

At that moment, Sang Sheng's interest was piqued. "Previously, you've always described that boy's base so vividly. Perfect, I'll go stay there for a few days too. It'll also save our girl the trouble of running back and forth."

At this, the woman smiled at Qin Xiaoxue, who suddenly looked a bit embarrassed.

However, the latter didn't say anything. Su Ping, that fellow, had mentioned that the Heart of Woods was now vastly different from how it was during the summer vacation, and Miss Qin wanted to see for herself anyway.

The vehicle set out from the city center, passed through the suburbs, and as it moved from the bustling city, the surroundings began to grow slightly desolate.

Qin Xiaoxue, however, could see that compared to the summer vacation, there was indeed more traffic here.

Once the distant Heart of Woods came into view, the number of vehicles entering and leaving was a world of difference from its previously deserted state.

It was Qin Xiaoxue who frowned as she looked at the former Yuntian Pet Beast Resort. Now, seeing the plaque changed to 'Heart of Yun,' her delicate brows furrowed slightly.

She had heard about some business collaborations between Su Ping and that Dong Muyun woman. That woman was indeed clever.

But just as they reached the entrance, Qin Xiaoxue was taken aback. Right there, in front of the gate, she saw a familiar figure—who else could it be but Su Ping?

Besides Su Ping, however, there were three other incredibly familiar figures.

She hadn't had much contact with Dong Muyun but had seen her a few times at the Yuntian Resort. It was normal for her to be here.

The other two, however, took Qin Xiaoxue completely by surprise.

Dong Muxuan's presence was understandable, but why was Ye Zhou here?

This guy was one of the few people Qin Xiaoxue respected at the Magic Capital Academy.

Cultivating Time Series abilities was the most difficult. For this guy to have reached his current level and strength made him an unimaginable genius. In the eyes of some, he wasn't necessarily inferior to Su Ping.

The question was, how did he get involved with Su Ping? What was their relationship?

Qin Xiaoxue didn't understand.

Miss Qin had always been straightforward.

Thus, Qin Xiaoxue rolled down the window and shouted towards the figures, "Su Ping, what are you up to?"

Sang Sheng looked at her granddaughter speechlessly but then said to Aunt Qin, "Stop the car, please."

The car slowed to a halt, and they all disembarked.

At first, Su Ping even thought he was hearing things.

But upon seeing Miss Qin's figure, he realized that since Ye Zhou and Dong Muxuan were on vacation from Magic Capital Academy, Miss Qin naturally must be on break as well.

Su Ping ignored Qin Xiaoxue's greeting and hurried towards Sang Sheng, who was approaching with a faint smile, saying respectfully, "Senior Sang Sheng!"

"Principal!"

"Principal!"

"Lord Sang Sheng!"

Several distinctly different voices rang out.

Sang Sheng simply smiled and nodded at the two students from Magic Capital Academy, then glanced at Dong Muyun with interest.

"The Dong Family has produced two rather impressive talents this generation."
