Weird, my gaming life

Chapter 69 The Scramble

"He got away!" Long Youtian frowned in dissatisfaction.

"It's good enough that we were able to severely injure him. An S-rank Ghost Master is determined to escape, so it won't be easy to completely capture him! This is only because our Ghost Domain is effective against him. If we encountered an Awakened Being who isn't effective against us, he might even turn the tables and kill us!"

Xiao Qingwu put away her folding fan and said indifferently that they had only come here to drive away these demon tamers, and had not even considered killing this S-rank demon tamer.

There's no need for that. The more powerful a Ghost Master is, the shorter their lifespan. Generally, S-rank Ghost Masters, due to their long-term use of their own lives to raise monsters, often don't live past twenty years. With such short lifespans, they only need to wait for this generation of powerful Ghost Masters to die out before dealing with them all at once.

Compared to the lifespan of awakened beings, which can easily reach hundreds of years, so-called demon tamers are nothing more than grasshoppers in autumn, unable to hop around for long.

Xiao Qingwu turned her gaze to Lin Yuan and the other two who were struggling to stand up.

"I didn't expect there would be survivors in this large-scale disaster." Long Youtian also turned his gaze to them, and then his eyes became impatient. "Since you're still alive, hurry up and go to the shelter. Don't get in the way here."

Xiao Qingwu suddenly waved her folding fan. "Wait, Brother Long, aren't you curious how they survived the Silent Symphony? This is an S-rank Ghost Realm!"

After speaking, Xiao Qingwu slowly walked towards Lin Yuan and the other two. Suddenly, she stopped and looked at Qin Wan.

"The Demonic Vein...which family are you from?!"

A hint of inquiry flashed in Xiao Qingwu's eyes.

Qin Wan calmed herself down before slowly speaking.

"The Qin family!"

Instantly, both Long Youtian and Xiao Qingwu's eyes widened.

"Hey, hey, hey! Is this the Qin family I know?!"

"It shouldn't be wrong, that makes sense, it's the rebirth of a strange vein!"

Xiao Qingwu suddenly exclaimed in surprise, because even in the records of their family, the Reborn Ghost was a legendary existence.

At this moment, the contempt in Xiao Qingwu and Long Youtian's eyes vanished, replaced by extreme caution.

Suddenly, Xiao Qingwu strode forward.

"I wonder if Miss Qin is married? If you don't mind, I can offer myself to you!"

That's a reborn ghost! Although its combat power isn't strong, it's exceptionally useful for exploring the ghost realm outside the wall.

In fact, all nine megacities have been exploring beyond the region in recent years, but progress has not been great, because the supernatural realms beyond the region are complex and complicated, and they are supernatural realms that have been created by the deaths of billions of humans.

There are many rules, and if any taboo is violated, even these S-level Awakened Ones will die instantly. However, it is different with the Rebirth Ghost. As long as they are in the Ghost Realm, the Rebirth Ghost can be reborn infinitely. Once they understand all the rules, their families can send Awakened Ones out in a targeted manner.

Using the suppression law of the strange domain to access the core of the strange and create a new symbiotic strange vein—what a huge benefit that would make it no wonder Xiao Qingwu was so tempted.

Before Xiao Qingwu could finish speaking, Long Youtian let out a sneer. He took a step forward, and the phantom of the blood-red dragon on his body had not yet dissipated, giving people a powerful sense of oppression.

"Offer yourself in return?" Xiao Qingwu, you're still as frivolous as ever!

Long Youtian made no attempt to hide his disdain, turning his gaze to Qin Wan with a direct and domineering tone.

"Miss Qin, don't listen to his nonsense. I, Long Youtian, am not as hypocritical as him. As long as you are willing to attach yourself to my Long family, I assure you, as the future heir of the Long family, that I can not only ensure that your Qin family returns to the Upper City District, but also that you will receive top-level resources and protection from my Long family."

These words were even more blatant and alluring than Xiao Qingwu's suggestion.

One was just making a joking promise, while the other offered real benefits.

Xiao Qingwu's smile remained unchanged. He shook his folding fan as if he didn't care at all about Long Youtian's sabotage.

"Brother Long, you're being a bit off. How can you treat a lady so rudely? Miss Qin, a marriage alliance is not just an exchange of interests, but also a union of two families. I believe we will have a lot in common. As for resources, my Xiao family has never been stingy with its own people."

As he spoke, his gaze drifted intentionally or unintentionally towards Lin Yuan and Lu Feng, his meaning all too clear: he was not only willing to accept Qin Wan, but also her family.

The air began to freeze as two of the top figures from the upper city engaged in a silent struggle on the ruins where a life-or-death battle had just taken place.

Qin Wan's heart was pounding, but her expression returned to calm in a very short time.

opportunity!

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

She originally thought that since she had been reborn, she would have to rely on careful planning to avenge her family and rebuild her family's fortunes.

However, now, a broad road leading directly to her wish is laid out before her.

Whether she chooses the Long family or the Xiao family, she can rise to the top in one step and achieve all her wishes.

She glanced at Lin Yuan beside her subconsciously, only to find that the child remained unusually calm throughout, showing no emotion whatsoever, as if he were quietly watching a performance that had nothing to do with him.

This calmness inexplicably tempered Qin Wan's burning passion for the immense opportunity.

Her subtle actions naturally caught the attention of Xiao Qingwu and Long Youtian, which made them value Lin Yuan's role even more.

Qin Wan took a deep breath and bowed slightly to the two of them.

"Thank you both for your kindness. I am deeply grateful, but I have just experienced a brush with death and am still unsettled. Moreover..."

Qin Wan paused for a moment, then turned and pulled Lin Yuan in front of her, ignoring Lu Feng who was looking at her expectantly.

"And I also need to respect my child's opinion; our immediate priority is to get into the shelter!"

Qin Wan neither accepted nor refused immediately, but instead used delaying tactics. Moreover, she did want to find a quiet environment to ask Lin Yuan for his opinion.

This trip to the Ghost Realm made her value Lin Yuan even more. She had a feeling that once this child grew up, his future would be limitless.

Long Youtian frowned slightly, clearly not satisfied with the answer, but Qin Wan's reasoning was impeccable, so he couldn't press her too hard.

It wasn't that he was soft-hearted, but rather that he wasn't sure what would happen if he took a hard line. You see, even their aristocratic family couldn't be sure of the exact level of the Rebirth Mystery, since it was a mystery that could change a spacetime.

Once this strange phenomenon resurfaces, he's not sure if this world will still exist. As for restricting Qin Wan, that would be meaningless, because what they need is for Qin Wan to genuinely bring back news of her rebirth. If Qin Wan harbors resentment, then their so-called exploration of the extraterrestrial realm will just be a joke.

If Qin Wan had used any underhanded tactics, it might have been their entire family that was destroyed.

Therefore, Qin Wan can only work for them if she is willing.

Xiao Qingwu had also thought of this, and gave Qin Wan a gentle smile.

"Miss Qin is indeed a person of great loyalty and righteousness. I admire her. I was impolite just now!"

"Then I'll take Miss Qin to the shelter!"

After saying that, he smiled and made a gesture of invitation, appearing extremely gentlemanly.

Seeing his overly attentive manner, Long Youtian instantly became displeased. "Why should you be the only one escorting Miss Qin? I want to go too!"

Long Youtian snorted coldly, said nothing more, and turned to lead the way toward the shelter.

Along the way, the atmosphere began to become subtle. The two, who had originally joined forces to fight the enemy, now had an invisible barrier between them.

Lin Yuan followed quietly behind Qin Wan. He could clearly sense that from the moment the two men began to fight over Qin Wan, a profoundness that Qin Wan had never shown before began to emerge.

Clearly, this mother is quickly adapting to her new identity and beginning to enjoy the competition.

Lin Yuan remained silent, taking in everything.

Whether it was that S-rank demon tamer just now, or these two scions of noble families who could turn the tide with a mere gesture, they were both showing him the true laws of this world.

Without sufficient power, he did not want to act rashly; it would be best to persuade Qin Wan to continue staying in the central district.

He didn't believe that these two scions of prominent families would fight over Qin Wan for no reason; there must be some compelling benefit in Qin Wan that would drive people crazy.
