Chapter 897

~14 min read 2,676 words

The alien's lunch was not as strange as Luo Quan had imagined, and there were no insects, fungi, or arthropods she didn't recognize.

It was just a steak that smelled very fragrant, plus a portion of stir-fried vegetables she didn't recognize; the taste was relatively spicy, but she just liked it a bit spicy.

As for the staple food, it was also a grain that looked similar to rice, but it was fuller than ordinary rice.

Luo Quan picked up a clump and stuffed it into her mouth; her lips and tongue were instantly filled with a fragrance, and the texture was soft, waxy, and elastic; this rice was so delicious that it didn't even need side dishes.

"How is it? You don't have such delicious food there, right?" Bai Xingwei looked at Luo Quan, her words carrying a bit of superiority.

"Indeed, the texture of the ingredients is completely not in the same grade."

Luo Quan said and took a bite of the steak, finding it very chewy; the salty and fresh juice splashed in her mouth, just like eating a soup dumpling.

After swallowing it, she said with lingering interest: "The chef's control of the heat is also very in place, controlling the freshness and chewiness of the meat to a perfect balance point; the cooking skills are very remarkable!"

"Of course, the chef in my house is a gold-medal head chef at the God-Refining Realm." Bai Xingwei grinned and asked again: "Listening to you talk so reasonably, you also have a lot of research on cooking."

Luo Quan nodded: "Cooking is one of the life skills I am relatively good at."

"Then if there is a chance, you can cook and let me taste how your skills are."

"No problem." Luo Quan made an OK gesture and then continued to eat.

During the process of eating, Bai Xingwei enlarged the light machine and played today's Universe News.

The headline was that the daughter of a cross-star-region tycoon in the Holy Federation married a poor boy.

Although this poor boy had an ordinary family background, his martial arts talent was outstanding, and he reached the Soul-Awakening Realm at a young age, which could be said to have infinite potential.

But the most critical point was that the couple met on campus and fell in love freely; the woman refused the arranged marriage at home and was determined to marry the man.

So this tycoon could only follow his daughter's wishes and held this grand wedding for her.

"Rich girl falls in love with a poor scholar; it doesn't just happen in storybooks." Luo Quan teased after reading it.

"You think too much."

Bai Xingwei chuckled: "A married daughter is like spilled water; if this Miss Lika followed the family's arrangement to marry another rich young master, then it would be very difficult to fight for the family property."

"And if the object of marriage is a poor boy without any background, then he can be brought in as a live-in son-in-law, and Miss Lika can also stay at home in a justified manner and continue to fight for the family property with her more than one hundred brothers and sisters."

"Miss Lika…………you know her?" Luo Quan was shocked to hear this; she didn't expect there to be so many twists and turns in this.

Bai Xingwei said in a deep voice: "She counts as my senior; she just graduated from the school I am attending this year; her new husband is also a very famous genius in the school; I originally thought he would take the martial arts exam, but I didn't expect him to take a shortcut directly."

"With his father-in-law as a backer, he can struggle at least five hundred years less in his official career in the future!"

Luo Quan asked suspiciously: "I thought that being a live-in son-in-law would be looked down upon, and being an official or something would be wishful thinking."

"That's all old news; what is looked down upon is eating soft rice; as for a live-in son-in-law, it depends on whether you have the motivation to improve after entering."

"Speaking of which, my dad planned to arrange a marriage for me a while ago and recruit a live-in son-in-law, but unfortunately, there was no follow-up in less than a month." Bai Xingwei shook her head after finishing, looking very disappointed.

Luo Quan was shocked: "Why? With your conditions, you shouldn't worry about not finding a live-in son-in-law, right?"

Bai Xingwei sighed: "I didn't plan to recruit a live-in son-in-law in the first place; the family forced it, so I took a step back and used a martial arts competition to recruit a son-in-law."

"I don't care how young the people who come to compete are, but they can't be more than three years older than me."

"They came in an endless stream a few days ago, but unfortunately, most of them couldn't even take one of my moves; later, a few experts came one after another, and there were even classmates from my school, but none of them were my opponents."

"This lasted for a month, and finally no one came to compete with me anymore, and then the busybodies in the Imperial Capital gave me a nickname called White Widow, mocking me for being too fierce and destined to be lonely for life."

"You don't go and drag out the person who gave you the nickname?" Luo Quan's fists hardened when she heard this.

The thing she hates most in her life is people who give ugly black nicknames; it's simply unbearable!

Bai Xingwei, on the other hand, didn't look angry at all, but grinned: "I actually quite like it; a fierce reputation can also avoid a lot of trouble; at least now my family doesn't urge me to get married."

"Your heart is really big." Luo Quan shook her head and sighed, "By the way, you are so powerful; what level are you at now? You said it last time, but I forgot."

"Half-step God-Refining, just a little bit away from refining the Descent Divine Ability and becoming an expert qualified to walk the star sea!"

Bai Xingwei put her hands on her hips, looking very proud.

"Who is the Descent Divine Ability?" As a newcomer, Luo Quan couldn't get the point of her pride at all, feeling a bit like she didn't understand but felt it was powerful.

Bai Xingwei didn't lose her enthusiasm because Luo Quan couldn't understand, but continued to explain: "Divine Ability is a special ability; there are innate talent Divine Abilities, and you can also obtain Divine Abilities through artifacts."

"In the Divine Protection Federation, Divine Ability is also called God-Given Skill, or God Skill for short."

"In theory, everyone's Divine Ability is infinite, but wanting to awaken a talent Divine Ability or inherit an artifact Divine Ability requires consuming a large amount of resources."

"Most students without any family background can have a free opportunity to awaken their talent Divine Ability in school; if their grades are excellent, they can also obtain many artifacts containing Divine Abilities."

"In addition, detecting Divine Ability doesn't cost much money; if you are detected to have a very good Divine Ability, you can even attract funding from some families or government offices."

"Then can you check for me too?" Luo Quan said excitedly.

If it's detected to be some awesome Divine Ability, wouldn't she be worry-free for food and clothing?

"It's possible, but I don't have such equipment at home; you can go to the nearby Wu Shen Hall for testing."

"Change your clothes, and I'll take you there."

Bai Xingwei said, pulling open her wardrobe.

This wardrobe, which looked ordinary on the outside, had clothes that were endless after being pulled open, as if it were connected to another world.

Bai Xingwei clicked a few times on the light machine, and several flying robots in the wardrobe transported the clothes out.

"This technology is really convenient." Luo Quan couldn't help but sigh.

"Actually, I can do it with a thought; this is just to demonstrate for you." Bai Xingwei said and handed the clothes to Luo Quan.

There are two popular styles in the Holy Tang Heavenly Dynasty: one is the fluttering skirts in ancient martial arts dramas, and the other is the more capable short clothes, each with different beauty.

In order not to be too flashy, Luo Quan finally chose the short clothes, which were short sleeves and shorts.

Luo Quan changed her clothes and walked in front of Bai Xingwei, almost blinding her eyes.

"These big white legs, what did you grow up eating?" Bai Xingwei blinked her eyes quickly, as if she were adapting to the white light that suddenly appeared in front of her.

"It's probably because I don't get much sun; sometimes being too white is also annoying, easily flashing people around me." Luo Quan lowered her head and sighed, starting to Versailles.

"Cut, I'm not worse than you, okay!" Bai Xingwei lifted her skirt without admitting defeat, revealing her equally fair long legs.

Of course, compared to Luo Quan, there was still a gap.

And the appearance was really too indecent; walking on the street would definitely be laughed at.

After putting her legs together to compare, Bai Xingwei clearly realized the gap between the two, silently put the skirt down, and said in her mouth: "I am a lady; how can I do such an action."

Luo Quan smiled without saying a word, just tied her blonde hair into a capable ponytail.

The benefit of advanced technology is that no matter where you go, you only need a few seconds to reach your destination through the teleportation array.

Of course, this is a trick that only the rich can play; the price of using the teleportation array once is not cheap; ordinary people should honestly take the spaceship or fairy boat; it won't be much slower.

The exit of the teleportation array was on the square where the Wu Shen Hall was located; just walking out, Luo Quan felt a murderous aura coming towards her, as if a peerless expert was standing in front of her, making all the hair on her body stand up.

"The Wu Shen Hall is a must-visit place for everyone who wants to take the martial arts exam."

Bai Xingwei introduced this place to Luo Quan while walking: "Before taking the martial arts exam, you have to accept various training and exams here; after the exam, there is also a high probability of getting a job here."

"For many martial artists, the Wu Shen Hall is their starting point and also their end point."

"And as one of the most prestigious violent law enforcement agencies in the Holy Tang Heavenly Dynasty, whenever there is some trouble in the star sea that local armies cannot handle, they will let the Wu Shen Hall send people to solve it."

"Sounds like special forces." Luo Quan thought in her heart.

At this time, a boy dressed in a flashy way passed by the two women; he had a camera hanging on his head and a light machine in front of him; because his attention was all on the light machine, he didn't notice the two big beauties beside him at all.

"Is that live streaming?" Luo Quan saw the boy's appearance, and her heart felt a bit hot.

Bai Xingwei also looked at the boy and said: "Yeah, it's a very popular form of entertainment in the universe right now."

"Various anchors take cameras to roam the star sea, and the audience can enjoy the beautiful scenery in the universe without leaving home."

"Some who are a bit bolder even dare to run near neutron stars and supernovae!"

Luo Quan was stunned: "Is it that awesome!"

"Yeah, they died miserably."

Bai Xingwei revealed a playful smile: "Many anchors are lunatics who want money but not their lives; they will do anything for tips."

"On some official live streaming platforms, the content is relatively healthy and normal."

"If it's some irregular wild platforms, they are simply full of blood, violence, and pornography; you can see all the evil you can imagine."

"Some people even spend a lot of money to tip just to watch these."

"It seems it's the same everywhere." Luo Quan couldn't help but sigh.

"Of course, these contents are ultimately not presentable; what people watch the most is actually those beauty anchors, or virtual YouTubers with good voices and humor; if they have talent, it's even easier to get popular."

Bai Xingwei said and continued to walk forward, but didn't notice that her words gave Luo Quan the idea of becoming a virtual YouTuber anchor.

Her current situation is not suitable for showing her face.

As for talent, there is really too much; she feels there is a lot of room for development.

Why doesn't she start by being a talented virtual YouTuber anchor?

Before she could figure it out, Bai Xingwei had already walked in front of an object that looked like a stone tablet.

The male anchor next door had finished testing and was shouting and screaming as if no one was there, seemingly having obtained a not-bad result.

"What are you stunned for? Come over quickly."

Bai Xingwei turned her head, found that Luo Quan was still standing in place, and shouted at her.

Luo Quan hurried forward.

"Just put your hand on it; the Wu Shen Tablet will detect your bloodline, and all the Divine Abilities you might inherit will appear; the brighter the light, the greater the possibility of you inheriting them."

After Bai Xingwei finished speaking, she took a step back, leaving the stage to Luo Quan.

"Is it that simple?"

Luo Quan looked at this ordinary stone tablet, fearing that after touching it, someone would suddenly appear next to her and shout strange words like "Dou Qi, Stage Three."

Taking a deep breath, Luo Quan pressed her palm on the stone tablet.

Three seconds later, the temperature of the stone tablet gradually rose, making her feel like she was touching a hot water bottle.

However, soon, this heat began to spread along her palm to her entire arm, and even her body.

After ten seconds or so, the heat gradually disappeared; she felt as if she had taken a sauna, and sweat was dripping all over her body.

At the same time, a golden sword shadow that pierced the sky appeared on top of the stone tablet; this unparalleled momentum almost alarmed everyone in the Wu Shen Hall.

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of cultivators wearing blue armor rushed out, all because of this golden sword shadow that appeared on the square with a terrifying momentum.

"Oath... Victory Sword!"

Bai Xingwei looked at the name of the Divine Ability in surprise; the surging wind and waves around Luo Quan made the hair of the two people flutter with the wind.

"It's actually a Heaven-tier Divine Ability; Luo Quan, you've really made a big deal this time!"

Bai Xingwei's excited voice spread in the wind, and just as Luo Quan was about to say something, a blood-red wild dragon spiraled up, containing a terrifying aura enough to tear space and time, continuing to ravage the already dilapidated air.

"Night Guy!"

Bai Xingwei exclaimed again; she didn't expect Luo Quan to be a rare twin Divine Ability holder.

And she, who is known as a genius of swordsmanship once in a thousand years, also got such a title because of her twin Divine Ability.

So Luo Quan, can she also be called a martial arts genius once in a thousand years?

Before she could figure out this question, a group of officers from the Wu Shen Hall walked over.

The first thing was to control the male anchor who was live streaming.

As for the camera on his head, it was also taken off early.

A few seconds later, all turmoil returned to calm.

Luo Quan looked at the crowd and blinked.
