Shen Tian Fate acquired during event: 0
Qin Hao froze.
Then...
Slowly looked toward Shen Tian.
Shen Tian was sitting calmly.
Drinking.
Talking with Rose.
Not interfering.
Not moving.
Nothing.
Qin Hao’s smile became wider.
He was winning.
Actually winning.
His system confirmed it.
Qin Hao mentally laughed.
Finally.
Across the room...
Xu Ning stared at the same general situation.
[Host.]
"Hm?"
[He thinks he’s winning.]
Shen Tian smiled.
"I know."
[You haven’t taken any Fate.]
"I know."
[His event is almost over.]
"I know."
Xu Ning narrowed her eyes.
[You’re planning something.]
Shen Tian placed his glass down.
"Obviously."
Qin Wusheng raised one final hand.
The applause stopped.
"Before we finish..."
Qin Hao’s smile weakened.
Why did every sentence from this old man make him nervous?
Qin Wusheng continued.
"I have one final announcement."
He looked toward Shen Tian.
Qin Hao’s stomach dropped.
No.
Please.
For once...
Don’t involve him.
The ancestor smiled.
"Young Master Shen."
Shen Tian stood.
Qin Hao closed his eyes.
Of course.
Qin Wusheng continued.
"I heard the Shen Family recently entered medical security."
Gu Qingya looked toward Shen Tian.
Shen Tian nodded.
"Yes."
"And medicinal research."
Lin Yue became attentive.
"Recently."
Qin Wusheng smiled.
"Good."
Then...
He gestured toward an attendant.
A sealed black case was brought forward.
Xu Ning’s eyes widened immediately.
Qin Hao’s system flashed red.
FATE OBJECT DETECTED
Qin Hao froze.
No.
The case opened.
Inside...
A small golden seed.
It looked ordinary.
Tiny.
Dry.
Almost dead.
But...
Every cultivator in the room felt it.
Spiritual pressure.
Ancient.
Dense.
Alive.
Qin Hao’s system activated.

Qin Hao’s eyes widened.

His system continued.

Qin Hao’s face slowly changed.
Then...
He looked toward Shen Tian.
No.
No no no.
Qin Wusheng smiled.
"I intended to give this to Qin Hao."
Qin Hao relaxed slightly.
Good.
Thank God.
Then...
"But..."
His smile widened.
Qin Hao’s stomach dropped again.
The ancestor continued.
"I’ve changed my mind."
Silence.
Qin Hao stared.
"Ancestor?"
Qin Wusheng ignored him.
He looked at Shen Tian.
"This seed has remained dormant for nearly eighty years."
"Nobody in my family has awakened it."
Qin Hao’s eyes narrowed.
The ancestor continued.
"I heard rumors..."
"...that your spiritual Qi possesses unusual sovereign characteristics."
Shen Tian’s eyebrow rose.
Qin Wusheng smiled.
"So..."
He lifted the case.
"Make it bloom."
Qin Hao froze.
Shen Tian stared.
Then...
Xu Ning laughed.
[Host.]
"What?"
[He just handed you Qin Hao’s opportunity in front of him.]
Shen Tian slowly smiled.
Qin Hao saw that smile.
His heart dropped.
"Fuck."
Qin Wusheng held out the case.
Shen Tian approached.
Then...
His fingers touched the seed.
Immediately...
BOOOOOOOOOOM!
Golden light erupted.
The entire hall shook.
Every cultivator stood.
The seed floated.
Shen Tian’s Heaven Manifestation Qi responded.
Golden energy wrapped around it.
Then...
The tiny dry shell cracked.
CRACK.
A green shoot appeared.
Qin Wusheng’s eyes widened.
Then...
A stem.
Leaves.
Golden petals.
In seconds...
A lotus bloomed in midair.
Silence.
Complete.
Absolute.
Silence.
The old ancestor stared.
Then...
He started laughing.
"Hahahahahahaha!"
The Golden Marrow Lotus floated toward Shen Tian.
Then...
It entered his palm.
The system erupted.

Qin Hao stared.

Shen Tian looked toward Qin Hao.
Then...
Raised the lotus slightly.
Qin Hao’s eye twitched.
That bastard.
His own system activated.

Qin Hao relaxed.
Still ahead.
Then...
Shen Tian looked toward Qin Wusheng.
"Can I do whatever I want with it?"
The ancestor laughed.
"It’s yours."
Qin Hao’s eyes narrowed.
Why did he ask that?
Shen Tian looked toward the women.
Then...
Toward Lin Yue.
Her eyes immediately widened.
"No."
Shen Tian smiled.
Lin Yue pointed at him.
"No."
He started walking.
"Shen Tian."
He continued.
"You are not giving me another mythical plant!"
He stopped in front of her.
The Golden Marrow Lotus floated between them.
Lin Yue stared.
Then...
At him.
"No."
Shen Tian smiled.
"You haven’t even heard me."
"I know you."
"Research."
Her face changed.
He continued.
"Don’t consume it."
"Don’t destroy it."
"Figure out why it responded to my Qi."
Lin Yue stared.
Then...
Her professional curiosity immediately betrayed her.
Her eyes moved toward the flower.
Shen Tian saw.
"Interested?"
She looked away.
"No."
Rose laughed.
"Terrible liar."
Lin Yue’s cheeks warmed.
Shen Tian leaned slightly closer.
"Take it."
She looked at him.
Then...
Slowly raised her hands.
The lotus settled into them.
Her eyes widened.
It was warm.
Alive.
Powerful.
She looked toward Shen Tian.
"You’re trusting me with this too?"
"Yes."
Her expression softened.
Qin Hao watched.
Then...
His system suddenly screamed again.

He froze.
"What now?"
The system displayed.

Qin Hao slowly looked toward Shen Tian.
Shen Tian smiled.
Qin Hao’s eye twitched.
"You..."
Shen Tian raised an eyebrow.
"What?"
Qin Hao forced a smile.
"Nothing."
Shen Tian’s smile widened.
Qin Hao’s system continued.

Qin Hao mentally hissed.
How is it unstable? I gained more Fate than he took.
