"Let the Grandmaster... run faster?"

Master Fuli suddenly spoke up and advised, leaving Lin Ying momentarily stunned. She kept repeating Master Fuli's words in her mouth and began to ponder.

"Although I don't know much about the Second Epoch, you said your meetings are discussing this matter, so let me ask, has a complete Second Epoch site ever been unearthed on Blue Star?"

Master Fuli asked Lin Ying.

Ansheng naturally understands the Second Epoch, and even managed to excavate a complete Second Epoch site.

At the site, he encountered dragons and learned about the truth behind the demise of the Second Epoch, as well as their culture before their fall.

But as the Security Bureau learned more about the Dragon People, they felt increasingly fortunate regarding the [Dragon Man Ruins].

The Dragon People originated from the current three northern provinces, and the northern regions of Xia Country belong to the ancestral lands of the Dragon People.

The dragons were romantics, emulating a certain bioengineer from the First Epoch, leaving warnings for later generations to avoid repeating the mistakes of the pioneers, and bewilderingly dying on the path to uncovering the truth of spiritual particle origins.

The Dragon People never left a true technological legacy. If a complete Second Epoch site were unearthed, it would undoubtedly clash with the mainstream currents of Dragon People society, belonging to the [Immortals].

Now, the resurgence of spiritual particles on Blue Star is not high, but once the immortals in the ruins revive, they could easily reduce Old Lin to a mere formality.

The Longevity Club is insanely brave, seeing a suspected immortal sanctuary and not running, having leisure to compete with the Mayflower organization for the chance to become black slaves.

"It seems... I've never heard of that? The Grandmaster only mentioned that the ruins' documents are extremely valuable. If one can fully understand the documents inside, their biological technology could grow explosively, so... they are all determined to win."

Lin Ying recalled what the Grandmaster had said, then looked at Master Fuli and spoke truthfully.

"Just tell Old Lin to prepare to run, or add a cover to the ruins to prevent spiritual particles from flooding in. Master Fuli, I'll find some time to go and provide guidance."

Ansheng shook his head, temporarily ignoring any intentions regarding the ruins far away on the Tropical Continent.

In Chang'an City, there are still the matters of Dragon People's corpses, Lu Tiannan, and primitive cells unresolved.

These two matters are both heavyweight, and if handled incorrectly, could blow the Security Bureau sky-high.

Old Lin is clearly not in a hurry, and Ansheng naturally prefers to clear the snow in front of his own door first.

"Just convey my words verbatim to Old Lin."

"He will understand what I mean, and if not, just let Unos translate for him..." Before Ansheng could finish speaking, a female voice came from upstairs:

"Here? What should I translate?"

A girl with long hair and a Xia Country face peeked out from the fire escape upstairs, looking at Master Fuli and asking what he had just called her for.

"?"

At this moment, both Master Fuli and Lin Ying, along with Lin Bingyun, looked at Ah Qing's classmate, slowly raising a big question mark, faces filled with surprise and uncertainty.

"Unos?" Ansheng looked at the girl, dumbfounded, and asked, "Did you take over Ah Qing's classmate?"

"No, I originally came to find you, but I ran into Ah Qing's classmate at the community entrance. I know you've always hidden your identity, so I said I was a friend of Ah Qing, and her classmate brought me in."

The Xia Country faced Unos was clearly not the Unos with the white facial features that Ansheng had previously seen.

She is another brain from the octopus in the jar, having flown from Southeast Asia to Chang'an the day after receiving Li Wenkang's call to assist with research on [Self Will].

Li Wenkang was very polite.

As soon as Unos landed, Li Wenkang drew 20CC of blood, took two drops of bone marrow, and a brain tissue slice from her.

"......"

Unos provided a reason, slightly reasonable amidst the absurdity, possibly unimaginable—at the birthday party, a stranger sneaked in, yet remained undetected by anyone.

"There's nothing for you to do right now, I'll find you later." Ansheng replied with a speechless sarcasm.

"OK..."

Unos retracted her head, returned to the rooftop, sat on a camping chair, and engaged in a conversation with newly met friends about grilling secrets, eyes reflecting a student's youthful purity and naïveté untainted by society.

She said she was a friend of Ah Qing, Ah Qing thought Unos was a student from the School of Animal Science, and everyone got along harmoniously.

No one knew there was a freeloader in the room.

...

After chatting briefly with Lin Ying on the stairs, Lin Ying handed Ansheng back to Ah Qing and turned away to make a phone call.

She relayed Master Fuli's words verbatim to Grandmaster Lin, who was far away at the Ame Health Resort.

"Phew.... We didn't arrive late, did we? My dear junior brothers and sisters!"

Wang Qiqi arrived on the rooftop with Treasure Tree and Ba Mountain Mosquito, along with the Treasure Ant hidden on the Ba Mountain Mosquito's head.

"The senior has arrived! Quickly come and sit! We've grilled well here and are waiting for your storytelling session!"

The Lingren cheerfully stood up, linked arms with Wang Qiqi and Treasure Tree, pulling them to sit by the charcoal fire pit, and introduced Wang Qiqi to the other students.

Due to the special nature of Xinxing Agricultural Science College, many students are curious about the academic system and intensely curious about the promise of guaranteed job placement upon graduation.

This rare chance to encounter a senior, so they all held great curiosity upon hearing Wang Qiqi would come.

"Gift.....The tea traveled far, heartfelt."

Sitting in the camping chair, Treasure Tree handed the Snow King's red milk tea cup to Master Fuli and solemnly expressed the meaning behind the gift from Treasure Tree's lineage, a busy day to procure a gift for Master Fuli.

Ba Mountain Mosquito and Treasure Ant nodded simultaneously, looking expectantly at Master Fuli for his judgment.

"....."

Looking at the trio of grandchildren and ancestors, their faces filled with anticipation, Ansheng's mouth twitched slightly as he murmured:

"Thank you for the milk tea....."

Saying this, Master Fuli extended his mouthpiece and bit the straw to take a sip.

A refreshing sweetness flowed into his throat, the aftertaste faintly revealed a hint of grassy earthiness, yet not difficult to drink, even carrying a faint floral aroma.

After taking a sip, Ansheng felt his Physique warming gently, nearly losing composure, almost manifesting into a white-haired human form in Ah Qing's embrace.

"Hiss...."

Ansheng gazed in amazement at the Snow King milk tea cup in Treasure Tree's hands and asked:

"This stuff... Where did you get it? It contains more spiritual particles than my initial morning charge."

"I squeeze myself..."

Treasure Tree proudly puffed her chest, holding the milk tea cup in one hand and gesturing a squeezing motion with the other.

"???"

Ansheng's mouthpiece progressively widened, displaying a ghost-like expression, his pupils trembling, staring at Treasure Tree.

Not sis..... What did you give me to drink?

"Qinling Divine Tree's sap..."

Ba Mountain Mosquito covered Treasure Tree's mouth, expressing dissatisfaction with her mother's clumsy words, explaining to their father:

"Treasure Tree's trunk roots into the land, absorbing water, and we collected morning dew from Peace Island, later collecting evening dew in Qinling."

The water in the milk tea cup is the sap from Treasure Tree, a liquid spiritual particle containing herbal impurities yet far more effective than any Spirit Particle Potion, refined by Treasure Tree's roots drawing on water and spiritual particles from the surrounding land.

This nearly 500 milliliters is the total amount collected by the three of them from Peace Island and Qinling.

This type of highly pure spiritual particle liquid was usually exclusive to Treasure Tree itself, even her daughters were not allowed to have any.

But today was Master Fuli's birthday, and Treasure Tree decided to share her precious treasure with Master Fuli.

"...... Nearly scared Ansheng to death." Ansheng's face was lined with distress as he looked from Treasure Tree to Wang Qiqi.

"Does... the fox not like it?"

Treasure Tree excitedly asked.

"I like it!"

Ansheng beckoned to Treasure Tree, preparing to let Ah Qing taste the highly purified spiritual particles potion brought by Treasure Tree.

"Oh..."

With a face full of disappointment, Treasure Tree reluctantly lifted the milk tea cup and handed it to Master Fuli.
