Something reacting.

Chen Xinyi noticed.

Her eyes widened.

"The bloodline..."

Chen Mo looked toward her.

"What?"

She stood.

"You’re awakening."

. . .

Outside.

Qin Hao’s system flashed.

Fate event progressing

Chen Mo bloodline resonance detected

Qin Hao immediately opened the door.

Han Yuer grabbed his sleeve.

"You’re going now?"

"Yes."

"Plan?"

Qin Hao smiled.

"Simple."

Han Yuer stared.

Then...

Qin Hao thought...

Which is exactly what I said before Tianlong Mountain.

Han Yuer closed her eyes.

Qin Hao froze.

Then...

"Forget that."

She laughed.

. . .

Shen Estate.

Shen Tian sat on the back terrace.

Finally...

Peace.

For approximately forty seconds.

Then...

Bai Xue dropped into the chair beside him.

Shen Tian stared.

She stole a strawberry from his plate.

He stared harder.

She ate it.

"What?"

"That was mine."

"Past tense."

Shen Tian sighed.

Bai Xue smiled.

Then...

She leaned back.

"Your island has a casino?"

"No."

"Can we build one?"

"No."

"Small casino?"

"No."

"Poker room?"

"Maybe."

Her eyes brightened.

"Good."

"I said maybe."

"That’s basically yes."

Shen Tian looked toward Xu Ning.

She floated nearby.

[She’s right.]

"Whose side are you on?"

[Entertainment.]

Bai Xue couldn’t hear her.

She grabbed another strawberry.

Shen Tian moved the plate.

Her hand missed.

She stared.

He smiled.

Bai Xue narrowed her eyes.

Then...

She leaned across him.

Her upper body nearly pressed against his chest as she reached for the

plate.

Shen Tian moved it farther.

She reached more.

Her face ended inches from his.

Both stopped.

Silence.

Bai Xue’s eyes met his green ones.

Her cheeks slowly warmed.

Shen Tian raised an eyebrow.

"Still want the strawberry?"

Bai Xue stared.

Then...

Her face became redder.

She immediately sat back.

"Keep it."

Shen Tian smiled.

"Thought so."

She pointed.

"Don’t."

"What?"

"That face."

He laughed.

Then...

A voice came from behind them.

"Interesting."

Bai Xue froze.

Shen Tian looked over.

Rose stood near the terrace door.

Beside her...

Tang Meilin.

Both were staring.

Bai Xue slowly looked at Shen Tian.

Then...

Back at them.

"This isn’t what it looks like."

Rose smiled.

"What does it look like?"

Bai Xue opened her mouth.

Nothing came out.

Tang Meilin looked at the strawberries.

Then...

At Bai Xue.

"Very dangerous fruit."

Bai Xue’s face turned red.

"Shut up."

Rose laughed.

Shen Tian leaned back.

"This is entertaining."

Three women turned toward him.

"Quiet."

He smiled.

. . .

Xu Ning suddenly looked away.

Her expression changed.

A panel opened.

[Host.]

Shen Tian immediately noticed the tone.

"What?"

Bai Xue, Rose and Tang Meilin couldn’t hear Xu Ning.

But they noticed Shen Tian’s attention shift.

Xu Ning read.

[Chen Mo’s Hidden Heir route has begun.]

Shen Tian nodded.

"Expected."

[Qin Hao found it.]

His smile appeared.

"Also expected."

[He’s interfering.]

"Good."

Xu Ning stared.

[You’re really not going?]

"No."

[The route is worth ninety four thousand Fate.]

"I know."

[Qin Hao could take a significant portion.]

"That’s the point."

Xu Ning became quiet.

Then...

A new notification appeared.

She froze.

Shen Tian noticed.

"What?"

[Interesting.]

"Xu Ning."

She opened the panel.

Villain Counterattack System activity detected indirectly

Qin Hao has entered direct Fate competition with Chen Mo

Destiny Conflict established

Then...

Another line.

Conflict amplification active

Winner may absorb a portion of defeated target’s narrative momentum

Shen Tian’s eyes sharpened.

"How much?"

[Unknown.]

"Estimate."

Xu Ning calculated.

Then...

[If Qin Hao wins decisively...]

[His Fate could pass seven hundred fifty thousand.]

Shen Tian smiled.

Rose watched him.

Then...

"That smile."

Shen Tian looked toward her.

"What?"

"You found something."

"Maybe."

Tang Meilin crossed her arms.

"You always say maybe."

"Because maybe is useful."

Bai Xue leaned forward.

"Business?"

"Something like that."

Rose stared at him for another second.

Then...

She walked over.

Instead of taking another chair...

She sat on the wide armrest beside Shen Tian.

Her shoulder touched his.

"Are you going somewhere?"

"No."

Rose blinked.

That surprised her.

"No?"

"No."

Tang Meilin immediately smiled.

"So you’re free?"

Shen Tian looked toward her.

"Why?"

She hesitated.

Then...

"Because..."

Her cheeks warmed slightly.

"...we’re supposed to pack."

"For one night?"

Tang Meilin stared.

"It’s an island."

"Still one night."

Bai Xue immediately spoke.

"Two nights."

Shen Tian looked at her.

"Who decided that?"

"Me."

"No."

"Your mother."

Shen Tian paused.

Bai Xue smiled triumphantly.

He looked toward the house.

"Mother!"

Yin Suyi’s voice came from somewhere inside.

"THREE NIGHTS."

Shen Tian froze.

Bai Xue burst out laughing.

Rose covered her mouth.

Tang Meilin smiled.

Shen Tian stared at the ceiling.

"How did it become three?"

Yin Suyi shouted back.

"YOU COMPLAINED."

Shen Tian closed his eyes.

Rose leaned closer.

"Don’t argue."

"Why?"

"You’ll make it a week."

He considered it.

Then...

"Good point."

. . .

Chen residence.

Not the apartment.

The real one.

Hidden outside the city.

Chen Mo stared through the vehicle window.

An enormous estate stretched across a mountain valley.

Ancient walls.

Training grounds.

Pagodas.

Gardens.

Dozens of cultivators.

His expression remained calm.

But internally...

So this is my family.

Several young women standing near the entrance suddenly turned.

Chen Mo didn’t notice.

Among them...

A woman in pale blue robes froze.

Chen Ruoxi.

Twenty four.

Granddaughter of Chen Zhenguo through his eldest son.

Chen Mo’s cousin.

She stared at the approaching vehicle.

Then...

Heard another thought.

This is ridiculous.

Her eyebrows rose.

The vehicle stopped.

Chen Mo stepped out.

His eyes scanned the estate.

Hidden martial clan.

Chen Ruoxi stared.

His lips weren’t moving.

Yet she heard him.

Perfectly.

Her expression changed.

Another heroine.

Another Fate route.

Chen Mo walked forward.

Then...

Saw her.

Their eyes met.

His ancient inheritance reacted.

A strange instinct.

Important.

Chen Mo frowned internally.

Who is she?

Chen Ruoxi’s eyes narrowed.

An elder approached.

"Young Master Chen."

Chen Mo looked toward him.

"Don’t call me that."

The elder paused.

Chen Ruoxi heard his next thought.

I haven’t agreed to anything yet.

Her expression softened slightly.

At least he wasn’t arrogant.

Then...

Chen Mo looked toward the gathered family members.

Half of them look like they’re deciding whether I’m worth acknowledging.
