Chapter 350: The Plot of the Double-Pupiled Man

Qi Yuan stood in the grand hall, his expression calm, his voice carrying a persuasive tone, making him appear almost like a divine being. His words seemed to convey the benevolence of a saint who empathizes with all of humanity.

Those present had various questions pop into their minds as they heard him.

???

The Seventh Prince maintained a respectful and humble demeanor, saying, "Mr. Qi is right. This world is too chaotic, filled with endless killing and oppression. Starting today, our royal family will advocate for the cessation of all wars. As for Mr. Qi’s plan to provide grandfathers and grandmothers to the people, the royal family fully supports it and is willing to go to any lengths to assist."

For the Seventh Prince, his first response to Qi Yuan’s statements was always that Mr. Qi was right.

"Hmm, your royal family is quite perceptive," Qi Yuan praised, then laid out his entire plan. "My robot, Zero-One, will be fully dedicated to creating a website over the next few days. This website will be called 'Grandpa Delivery,' and the reason it's not called 'Grandma Delivery' isn’t due to feminist concerns but because 'Grandma Delivery' might lead to misunderstandings about our site’s purpose.

"I need this website to be publicly available to the citizens across the country. I need your royal family to help advertise it, preferably during prime time slots. Oh, and make sure it’s mentioned during the weather forecast."

"There’s no problem with that; the royal family can handle it!" The Seventh Prince responded without hesitation.

As for Qi Yuan’s purpose, he didn’t inquire further.

Could he even ask?

A strong figure like Qi Yuan could do whatever he wanted.

"And there’s one more thing: after the website is promoted to people globally, they will need to send a drop of their blood to me. I will then screen the submissions. Those who are suitable will receive a grandfather or grandmother. Those who are not will still receive my love, and I’ll even call them grandson or granddaughter."

Qi Yuan explained seriously.

If the blood was deemed suitable, a grandparent would be delivered. If not, well, Qi Yuan would still fill their lives with love by calling them a grandchild.

The Seventh Prince immediately understood that this was going to be a massive undertaking.

The potential impact could be far more significant than the Tianyuan Sect’s plan to establish the Dou Zhuan Tianyuan Formation.

After all, giving one's blood to a mysterious cultivator was inherently dangerous.

"Mr. Qi is right, but... what if some people are unwilling to give their blood?" The Seventh Prince asked, completely on Qi Yuan’s side.

"I have no money. If they’re unwilling, then it’s just not meant to be." Qi Yuan shrugged.

He wasn’t about to pay people for their blood.

After all, he didn’t even have enough money to buy the entire planet of Gongxing.

Besides, where in the world do people get both grandparents and money?

"The royal family is willing to provide some funds to assist Mr. Qi," the Seventh Prince said, gritting his teeth. "We’ll also reserve some funds in the national treasury to support Mr. Qi."

If they were going to do something, they had to do it well.

The Seventh Prince had already thought of offering financial incentives.

Anyone who sent their blood through official channels would receive a 500-yuan subsidy.

Five hundred yuan might not mean much to wealthy individuals, but it would certainly attract a lot of people from lower-income backgrounds.

As for the wealthy, they might not care about the subsidy and might not bother with it at all.

"So, you’re saying this will mostly attract people who need money? By the way, does Qinyuan have more rich people or poor people?" Qi Yuan asked casually.

He didn’t care too much about the specifics of the process as long as the results were satisfactory.

"According to statistical data, there are more people with fewer assets."

"As long as there are more people, go ahead with your plan. Sigh, I’m such a good person, not only giving people grandparents but also giving them money." Qi Yuan said with pride, feeling like a truly generous person.

Ning Tao stood beside Qi Yuan, looking at him with adoration.

It seemed as if whatever he did brought her happiness.

Finally, Qi Yuan looked at the Seventh Prince and said, "If the blood is suitable, the grandparents or grandmothers I send will be a gift of immortal fate."

"Immortal fate?" The Seventh Prince's heart raced.

...

In a side hall, Wang Kaixiang had a perplexed expression.

"The previous champion of the Martial Arts Tournament... Qi Yuan."

Just moments ago, he had secretly stepped out of the side hall to take a look at the guest.

Using powerful search tools, he was surprised to find that the man was a local from Gongxing and the previous champion of the Martial Arts Tournament.

This surprised him.

Why would the royal family treat a mere local, even if he was the champion of the Martial Arts Tournament, with such importance?

"His strength... is quite ordinary." He watched the video of the final match in the Martial Arts Tournament.

In the video, Qi Yuan punched his opponent into a mist of blood.

That punch was indeed beyond the capabilities of ordinary people.

"Martial arts do have their merits, but this level of strength isn’t even close to the Foundation Establishment stage..."

Wang Kaixiang found it all very strange.

If this had been before the revival of the immortal path, a powerful martial artist like Qi Yuan might have drawn the royal family’s attention.

But now, with so many strong cultivators around, what was special about Qi Yuan?

"However, given the Seventh Prince’s attitude towards him, it might be worth getting in touch. Perhaps through him, I can persuade the royal family to agree to the Dou Zhuan Tianyuan Formation!"

Since he couldn’t directly convince the royal family, he would try alternative methods.

Meanwhile, in the main hall, Qi Yuan and the Seventh Prince discussed the details of the plan.

"The plan is perfect. Now it just needs to be implemented." Qi Yuan looked at the Seventh Prince, his eyes filled with approval.

The Seventh Prince was quite capable, having added helpful suggestions to Qi Yuan’s plan and filling in any gaps.

"The royal family will fully support it."

"Alright, I’m looking forward to your good news. I must be going now, goodbye."

After speaking, Qi Yuan glanced at Ning Tao, who immediately understood. She embraced Qi Yuan, and they disappeared in an instant.

Seven days later.

In a private room of a restaurant in Tianyue City.

The deep red wooden table exuded a faint exotic fragrance, and the transparent wine glasses were filled with a golden-yellow liquid that seemed like divine nectar.

The carefree Xiaoyao Sanren sipped his wine, his expression relaxed.

Holding a wine glass, Jiang Qingjiao looked at the man in black robes sitting across from him, his eyes filled with wariness. After carefully choosing his words, he said in a soft voice, "Your plan is indeed tempting, but Dou Shen Sect has only just gained a foothold in Qinyuan. We don’t want to stir up trouble."

The man with double pupils sitting across from Jiang Qingjiao was a member of the demon race from Canxing.

"You’re being so cautious because you fear the Eye of the Sky. But without the Eye of the Sky, what is there to fear about Qinyuan?

"I’m sure you don’t want a group of mortals to lord over us cultivators."

Mentioning the Eye of the Sky made Xiaoyao Sanren pause, and Jiang Qingjiao’s expression stiffened as well.

They both greatly feared the Eye of the Sky.

"Could it be that you have a way to deal with the Eye of the Sky?" Jiang Qingjiao looked at the double-pupiled man, unable to resist asking.

From the double-pupiled man’s tone, it seemed he had a solution for the Eye of the Sky.

Jiang Qingjiao found himself somewhat agreeing with the double-pupiled man’s sentiments.

After all, they were cultivators, yet they were being oppressed by mortals.

This would be unthinkable in the Fire Spirit Realm.

Mortals were nothing more than servants, to be killed at will.

Yet here, they had to lower themselves and interact with mortals as equals.

"Though the Eye of the Sky is powerful, Qinyuan isn’t the only place on Gongxing with an Eye of the Sky." The double-pupiled man’s eyes gleamed with amusement. Sёarᴄh the nôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"The Ancient Wu Kingdom!" Jiang Qingjiao immediately understood where the man was from.

On Gongxing, there were two major nations: Qinyuan and the Ancient Wu Kingdom.

Qinyuan’s people were similar to those in the cultivation world, while the Ancient Wu Kingdom had a more alien-like population.

The three cultivation worlds had spatial nodes in Qinyuan, which is why they only interacted with Qinyuan so far, while contact with the Ancient Wu Kingdom was still ongoing.

"I can barely be considered a part of the Ancient Wu Kingdom.

"If you’re willing to assist me, the Ancient Wu Kingdom will go to war with Qinyuan.

"At that time, the Eye of the Sky in Qinyuan will be dealt with by the Ancient Wu Kingdom.

"We will also need you to cooperate with us in containing them," the double-pupiled man said, laying out his plan.

The existence of Qinyuan had always been an obstacle to Canxing’s ambitions.

Recently, Qinyuan had experienced internal strife, with thirteen Eyes of the Sky falling, reigniting the ambitions of Canxing’s war faction.

"Are you from Canxing?" Jiang Qingjiao asked.

It was no secret that Canxing was backing the Ancient Wu Kingdom.

"Yes." The double-pupiled man nodded.

He was indeed from Canxing, but not entirely—his true allegiance was to the Myriad Demon Realm.

Of course, he wouldn’t tell Jiang Qingjiao that.

How could an outsider like Jiang Qingjiao, who had just arrived on Gongxing, know all of this?

Jiang Qingjiao’s eyes flickered with thought. "I still need to report this to my Patriarch before giving you an answer."

Hearing this, the double-pupiled man’s eyes gleamed with satisfaction.

From that response, he knew today’s plan was as good as sealed.

"I look forward to your good news," the double-pupiled man said with a smile. "To celebrate the success of our plan, I have a small gift for you."

With a wave of his hand, two drops of golden liquid appeared.

Xiaoyao Sanren and Jiang Qingjiao’s breaths suddenly became rapid.

"This is Heavenly Fang Demon Blood!"

"It’s a treasure even for Nascent Souls, only obtainable from powerful demons!" Xiaoyao Sanren’s eyes sparkled, his breathing becoming ragged as he desperately wanted to consume the Heavenly Fang Demon Blood.

Heavenly Fang Demon Blood was refined from the essence blood of powerful demons.

This blood not only strengthened a cultivator’s body but also enhanced their spirit.

More importantly, if lucky, a Nascent Soul cultivator could awaken a divine ability.

This blood was incredibly precious.

"A small gift, nothing more." The double-pupiled man was generous.

After all, compared to ancestral blood, this was a trivial expense.

Xiaoyao Sanren and Jiang Qingjiao accepted the Heavenly Fang Demon Blood, struggling to contain their joy.

The two exchanged a glance, understanding each other.

Jiang Qingjiao then leaned closer to the double-pupiled man, speaking softly. "With such a generous gift, we are willing to reciprocate!"

"Oh?" The double-pupiled man responded, intrigued.

Jiang Qingjiao continued, "A few days ago, Xiaoyao Sanren discovered a pair of teenagers in this region and took a liking to them, wanting to take them as disciples.

"However, those two were shortsighted and didn’t recognize an immortal when they saw one.

"Originally, Xiaoyao Sanren was just playing around, acting on a whim.

"But recently, he noticed something unusual about these two teenagers.

"They not only possess spiritual energy and the fluctuations of magical power, but they also seem to have..."

Jiang Qingjiao proceeded to tell the double-pupiled man about the recent occurrences surrounding the Aji siblings.

"We suspect that within this boy’s body... lies the remnant soul of a mysterious cultivator.

"That mysterious cultivator was likely extraordinary, at least a Nascent Soul, perhaps even a Purple Mansion.

"If we were to perform a soul search, we would surely gain something valuable!

"Though it may not be as precious as Heavenly Fang Demon Blood, it’s still a rare find."

For the past few days, Jiang Qingjiao and Xiaoyao Sanren had been observing the Aji siblings, noticing the anomaly within them.

They were almost certain that a powerful cultivator’s remnant soul was residing within the siblings’ bodies.

Xiaoyao Sanren and Jiang Qingjiao were tempted by this, but they didn’t dare act hastily, wanting to learn more about the remnant soul’s origin before making a move.

Now, with the arrival of the double-pupiled man, they decided to join forces.

With the double-pupiled man on their side, their chances of success increased significantly.

After all, a mere remnant soul, even if it belonged to a Purple Mansion cultivator in life, would be no match for the three of them.

"This gift interests me greatly." The double-pupiled man’s eyes sparkled.

The presence of a mysterious cultivator’s remnant soul on Gongxing was highly unusual.

After all, Gongxing had only been connected to the three realms for less than a year.

If the mysterious remnant soul was native to Gongxing, it might be related to the ancestral blood.

If he could learn something about the ancestral blood through a soul search, it would be a huge gain.

"In that case, let’s join forces to capture and divide the spoils!" Jiang Qingjiao proposed.

"Agreed," the double-pupiled man nodded.

Xiaoyao Sanren didn’t hesitate either and quickly nodded.

In the past, Xiaoyao Sanren had adhered to his philosophy of carefree living, wasting time with the Aji siblings to align with his dao of freedom.

But the potential rewards were too great, and sometimes, it was better not to be so carefree.

However, Xiaoyao Sanren frowned as he spoke. "I heard that the Aji siblings’ master has some ties to the military nobility. If we act recklessly, could it cause trouble?"

After all, Xiaoyao Sanren was a rogue cultivator.

He still vividly remembered what happened to that Nascent Soul demon cultivator.

This world had Eyes of the Sky.

"No need to worry, just an ordinary noble, not even a member of the Seven Martial Stars. They won’t concern themselves with this.

"Besides, we’ll move quickly, kill the Aji siblings, and then eliminate that Qi Yuan. We can easily make it look like an accident, can’t we?" Jiang Qingjiao had already thought this through.

A little trickery to make Qi Yuan’s death appear as a heart attack wouldn’t even raise suspicions among the nobility.

To these cultivators, anyone not from the Seven Martial Stars families was no different from a mere mortal.

However, at that moment, in Jun’an Residential Area, Ning Tao, who had been eating watermelon, suddenly raised an eyebrow. She looked over at Qi Yuan, her eyes flashing with a playful glint. "Husband, I just overheard someone plotting to kill you."

"What?" Qi Yuan’s eyes widened in surprise. "Who’s so bold as to break the law like this!"

Qi Yuan felt truly innocent.

He had always been kind-hearted.

Recently, he’d even been busy bringing warmth to the world.

Yet someone wanted to kill him?

He felt deeply wronged.

"Let’s go see who’s got such wicked intentions." Qi Yuan was visibly excited.

"Alright." Originally wearing a camisole, Ning Tao now donned an elegant black dress, covering herself modestly.

She embraced Qi Yuan, and they vanished in a flash.
