"Han Xiaopao."
"From today onwards, I appoint you as the Vice Realm Master."
Xiao Sheng was well aware that since Han Xiaopao had caught the attention of the Great Venerable and the Three Venerables, his future development was bound to be impressive.
Therefore, taking advantage of this opportunity to appoint him as Vice Realm Master would hopefully mean he could, to some extent, support the Cyan Origin Immortal Realm when he reached certain heights in the future.
Upon hearing this, Han Xiaopao was taken aback, somewhat surprised, and immediately waved his hands, saying, "Thank you for your kindness, Domain Master, but I am unworthy in terms of strength to serve as Vice Realm Master."
Han Xiaopao was also quite clear-headed. Although his goal was to keep climbing higher, if he were to directly assume the position of Vice Realm Master, it would cause dissatisfaction among many people, as there were indeed many stronger individuals coveting the position of Vice Realm Master.
"You just heard it too, the Domain Battle is about to commence."
"Becoming a Vice Realm Master is not just a title; you will enjoy cultivation resources only slightly less than those of a Realm Master."
"Moreover, with the title of Vice Realm Master, you can cultivate your own forces, allowing you to achieve greater merit in the future Domain Battles."
"Don't worry; your position as Vice Realm Master is personally appointed by me. Even if outsiders are dissatisfied, they'll have to hold it in."
Xiao Sheng said each word distinctly.
After listening, Han Xiaopao fell into contemplation. Domain Master Xiao was right. Only after becoming a Vice Realm Master could he have his own influence and thus achieve greater merit in the upcoming Domain Battles.
Moreover, he had also heard that the cultivation conditions and resources enjoyed by a Vice Realm Master were fully loaded, which would greatly aid his cultivation.
"Thank you, Domain Master, for the support."
Han Xiaopao no longer refused and expressed his gratitude to Xiao Sheng with cupped fists.
....
"Not bad."
Upon walking out of Wuyin Palace, Zhao Kuo patted Han Xiaopao's shoulder heavily. Having learned that Han Xiaopao was appointed as Vice Realm Master, Zhao Kuo was genuinely happy for him.
He always had high hopes for Han Xiaopao, and indeed, he didn't disappoint, successfully seizing this opportunity.
"Realm Master, no matter what, whether now or in the future, I am your soldier and will never forget your kindness."
Han Xiaopao also expressed his gratitude to Zhao Kuo.
Without Zhao Kuo, he would have found it very difficult to secure a foothold in the Cyan Origin Immortal Realm, let alone have this opportunity.
Hearing these words, Zhao Kuo was also exceedingly pleased.
He dared to seize opportunities, was bold yet careful, and was exemplary in both character and action.

"Here are the candied hawthorns the young master wanted."
Old Third handed a wooden box to Ran Qingqing and asked, "Does the young master have any other requests?"
Ran Qingqing took the wooden box and then said, "The young master said... she wants to visit the small town."
Upon hearing this, Old Third rubbed his chin.
Soon, he thought of a solution and, with a wave at the Immortal Island, created a mortal street out of it.
However, it still lacked some people.
He then issued a rallying order, summoning some trustworthy soldiers under the Great Woe Immortal Realm to the Immortal Island.
He had them conceal their aura and impersonate mortals.
Half an hour later, a bustling streetscape of a small town appeared on the Immortal Island, with the crowd consisting of big shots from the Immortal Domain disguised as mortals.
.....
Walking on the street, Ran Qingqing followed behind Little Nannan.
"Is this a windmill?"
Little Nannan approached a small stall and pointed to a paper windmill on it.
The stall owner was a middle-aged man; if it were outside, people would recognize him as the Sect Leader of an Immortal Sect of the Great Woe Immortal Realm.
"Yes, you're the first customer today. Since it's the grand opening, I'll just charge you two coins."
The stall owner said with a smile.
At this moment, Ran Qingqing stepped forward and handed the stall owner one coin.
Seeing Ran Qingqing, the stall owner remained calm outwardly, but inside, he was in great shock. Realm Master Ran, she was a legendary figure!
Just who exactly was this little girl?
"Thank you, Sister Ran."
After getting the paper windmill, Little Nannan was extremely happy.
As they walked, they saw an old man holding a wooden stake, with a red candied hawthorn stuck on it.
"Candied hawthorn!"
Little Nannan exclaimed in delight.
"Boss, how much for the candied hawthorn?"
Ran Qingqing walked up and asked. Despite finding the candied hawthorn herself, she pretended to inquire.
"This is the last candied hawthorn for the day. Once sold, I'm closing up. I'll just charge you one coin," the white-haired old man said with extended fingers and a smile.
"Here." After Ran Qingqing handed over a coin.
The old man squatted down and handed the candied hawthorn to Little Nannan.
After receiving the candied hawthorn, Little Nannan first offered it to Ran Qingqing, saying, "Sister Ran, there's only one, you should have it first."
Upon hearing this, Ran Qingqing smiled and said, "You eat. I can have this often."
...
Little Nannan didn't eat it but put it away instead.
Seeing this, Ran Qingqing was a bit surprised and asked, "Nannan, why aren't you eating it?"
"I'm saving it for Dad to try first." Little Nannan smiled, revealing two very cute little tiger teeth.
...
Dad?
Is she referring to the Master?
So... Little Nannan is the Master's child?
A glimmer of wonder flashed in Ran Qingqing's beautiful eyes.
And so, following behind Little Nannan, Ran Qingqing bought quite a few small toys.
After leaving the small town, Little Nannan was exceptionally happy: "Thank you, Sister Ran, for bringing me to play."
"If you want to come in the future, I will bring you," Ran Qingqing said with a smile.
Gradually, after spending time together, Ran Qingqing truly liked Little Nannan from the bottom of her heart—smart, adorable, and sensible. Not surprising, considering she's the Master's child.
"I have to go home."
Little Nannan knew well that her father would surely worry about her playing outside for so long.
Her father was always alone, with only her accompanying him, so Little Nannan never intended to play for too long and thought of bringing back any delicious or fun things for her father as soon as she saw them.
"Sister Ran, I'm leaving first."
"Come visit my home sometime; my dad's cooking is super delicious!"
Little Nannan said to Ran Qingqing.
Upon hearing this, Ran Qingqing was taken aback but still smiled and replied, "Alright, if there's a chance in the future, I'll definitely taste your dad's cooking."
She also knew inside that she wasn't yet qualified to meet the Master.
Before leaving, Little Nannan thought of something, waved her small hand, and a square wooden box appeared in her palm, which she handed to Ran Qingqing: "Here, Sister Ran, you bought so many things for me today; this is a little gift Nannan prepared for you."
"Don't dislike it."
....
"How could I dislike it."
"Thank you, Nannan."
Ran Qingqing graciously accepted Nannan's gift.
After sending Nannan off, Ran Qingqing looked at the wooden box in her hand, and upon opening it, her beautiful eyes were stunned.
