"The Time and Space Duo" was the nickname Su Ping had given Dong Muxuan and Ye Zhou.

One specialized in cultivating the Time Series, the other in the Space Element; together, they were the Time and Space Duo.

From Ye Zhou, Su Ping had received quite a few inspirations about the Time Series, and from Dong Muxuan, he had gained some knowledge and understanding of the Space Element.

In the past, when Su Ping had visited the Eastern Legion, he saw the spatial teleportation circle that led into a spatial vortex at the legion's station.

Since then, Su Ping had always harbored a thought:

I want one too! A few would be even better!

Although using such a thing for a small base like his seemed extravagant, as the saying goes, isn't everyone with a dream remarkable?

However, he learned from Dong Muxuan that creating a spatial teleportation circle was not so simple.

The conditions were relatively complex, with many requirements.

The requirements for resources and such were one thing, but the most challenging aspect was ensuring spatial stability.

This single requirement left Su Ping without any solutions.

The reason was simple. Previously, the Sword King Secret Realm had emerged within the territory of Heart of Woods. Not too far away, just over ten kilometers in the opposite direction, there had also been the Pig King Secret Realm.

Although both had since collapsed and vanished, the space would need time to gradually stabilize. Thus, any thoughts of a spatial teleportation circle had to be put on hold for the foreseeable future.

This left Su Ping very disappointed.

What disappointed Su Ping even more was that, with only a few days left until the New Year, the Little Crow still hadn't returned.

Although Su Ping was worried, there was little he could do.

During this time, he finally called a halt to Master Zhu Hong and Liu Fuhai's research.

With the New Year just days away, there was no need to push so hard. Everything requires a balance of work and rest, doesn't it?

Of course, there was another very important reason.

Su Ping didn't want to clean up Old Liu's messes anymore these few days. Old Liu had been completely obsessed lately. Although the Breeder Association had less work as the New Year approached, matters like Breeder welfare and year-end procurement all required Old Liu's approval.

However, since Sun Chaoju and the others couldn't find Liu Fuhai, their calls naturally all came to Su Ping.

This left Su Ping with no time for his own affairs.

As for Master Zhu Hong, he understood the principle of balancing work and rest. Being more worldly than Old Liu, he chose to take a break, spending his days fishing at Heart of Water.

Su Ping, too, had been busy with important matters these days, such as contemplating a crucial, historical question.

However, this historical question left Su Ping unable to decide on his own for the moment.

So, after some thought, on a winter morning a few days before New Year's Eve, Su Ping called his father.

"Hey, what's a brat like you calling your old man for now?"

Su Anyong's voice on the other end was slurred, accompanied by RUSTLING sounds.

"Su Anyong, it's almost New Year's Eve. When are you coming home?"

SPLASHING sounds came through the phone. Ten seconds later, Su Anyong, having finished washing up, said:

"Hmph! How novel! Home? What home? Heart of Woods? Isn't that Master Su Da's personal base? For an empty-nester like me, does it matter where I spend the rest of my life?"

"Su Anyong, can you ever speak properly?"

"Cut the crap. If you have something to say, spit it out. I have to go on a blind date with your Second Granduncle later."

Su Ping's eyelid twitched. He couldn't be bothered with this old fellow who was full of nonsense. Swallowing nervously, he said:

"Su Anyong, I want to make a decision that goes against our ancestors! Don't get angry when you hear it."

The moment he said this, Su Anyong on the other end fell silent. After a full half-minute of silence, the sound of someone exhaling a puff of smoke accompanied his words:

"Su Ping, I apologize for what I said earlier. I was indeed a bit out of line. Why don't you take back that decision?"

"???"

Su Ping retorted furiously, "I haven't even said what the decision is!"

On the other end, Su Anyong pursed his lips. He feigned indifference to Su Ping's affairs, but in reality, having secretly arranged for Lao Guan to report to him periodically, he was well-informed about the situation with Heart of Woods and Su Ping.

That's why Su Anyong knew the current state of Heart of Woods. Otherwise, he wouldn't have just remarked that Heart of Woods was now Su Ping's private cultivation base.

This kid had been expanding and renovating Heart of Woods so drastically, truly showing no regard for him, his father, who was, in name, also connected to Heart of Woods.

But for this very reason, Su Anyong had also heard something from Lao Guan.

Over the past few days, Su Ping had apparently been getting along very well with two young lads from Magic Capital Academy.

There was nothing inherently wrong with that.

His son had almost no close friends his own age.

However, according to Lao Guan, because of this, his son was spending even less time with that good-looking young lady from the Qin Family, who was around his age, than with those two lads.

Now, Su Ping's mention of a "decision that goes against our ancestors" made Su Anyong's heart tremble.

What Su Anyong feared most was that this little rascal, in retaliation for his father's disrespectful words, would do something drastic.
