Chapter 316: Song Qiuyun

With millions of followers online, Jiang Chu's emotional intelligence is certainly not low.

Getting along with her aunt's family was extremely pleasant, and she gave each of them a bottle of pill.

With the national university league over, her aunt's family and Zhou Mingyang would return that afternoon.

So Xu Jingming took them out for a big meal at noon and saw them off at the Qingxu City high-speed rail station before leaving.

"Cousin Jingming, you've got quite the luck with women..."

At the entrance of the high-speed rail station,

Watching the three of them leave together, Tang Qi couldn't help but feel a quiet sigh.

To be fair, her own appearance and figure were already quite good.

Yet before these two girls, she still paled in comparison.

A normal man would be incredibly lucky to have even one of them as a girlfriend.

But her own cousin had both at once.

More importantly, both clearly came from very powerful backgrounds.

This reminded her of Xiao Ya, who had once asked her for Xu Jingming's contact information back in Jiangcheng.

Compared to these two girls, even Xiao Ya—with her relatively strong Jiangcheng connections—had no chance at all...

"I looked them up—Xiao Ming's two girlfriends.

One's a net celebrity with millions of followers; the other comes from an eighth-rank Grand Master family!"

Uncle Tang Daolin exclaimed in a low voice.

Their information wasn't hard to find—he simply typed their names into his phone and pulled up the details.

"This..."

Tang Qi, Zhou Mingyang, and Meng Di exchanged glances, all visibly stunned.

A net celebrity was fine—just someone with big fame.

But an eighth-rank Grand Master family was another matter entirely!

To have grown into a family, they must have originated from a Grand Master alive a century ago.

A century ago, humans and ferocious beasts were still locked in brutal warfare.

Grand Masters who survived that era possessed strength and networks far beyond those who rose in recent decades.

And yet, such a precious daughter from a centuries-old Grand Master family willingly shared one man...

Though stunned, Tang Qi, also a woman, found herself understanding.

Her ultimate goal was to reach third-rank upon university graduation, and she'd only been studying for a little over half a year.

Her cousin had not only met her goal—he'd surpassed it by a full rank!

This cultivation speed was simply terrifying.

Combined with Daxia's rare SS-class ability, what did it matter if they were from an eighth-rank family?

With time, Xu Jingming could one day build an even stronger clan...

"I was worried Xiao Ming would get so absorbed in cultivation at university that he'd neglect this part of life.

Now it seems I was overthinking."

Her aunt Xu Qingwan, however, hadn't thought so deeply—her face wore a satisfied smile:

"Both girls have excellent personalities, and they look like they'll bear children easily.

It seems our Xu family's next generation will flourish..."

By this generation, the Xu family had only one heir: Xu Jingming.

She'd originally planned to have him find a girlfriend at university.

But before she could even bring it up, he'd handed her a pleasant surprise!

Before she could speak, he gave her a huge surprise!

She knew Xu Jingming was in a phase of rapid power growth and probably wouldn't want children so soon.

But Xu Qingwan didn't mind—after all, he was only nineteen, not turning twenty until December this year.

He wasn't too old; waiting three or four years before having children wasn't late.

"Let's go—back to Jiangcheng!"

Carrying hopes for future nephews and nieces, her aunt Xu Qingwan, feeling the trip was well worth it, led everyone into the high-speed rail station...

"Jingming, where are we going next?"

On the other side,

Xu Jingming, Song Qiuyun, and Jiang Chu walked down the road, Song Qiuyun asking softly.

"Back to the villa—to sleep!" Xu Jingming replied with a smile.

"Back to the villa, sleep!" Xu Jingming replied with a smile.

Song Qiuyun blushed instantly, "Isn't that a bit too early? It's only just past..."

Jiang Chu, who had already learned certain things from Song Qiuyun, also felt her cheeks warm.

"Not too early—I'll be sleeping for seven or eight hours."

Xu Jingming shook his head.

During the Survival Arena's ten days and nights, he'd rested only eight hours total.

The rest of the time was spent fighting ferocious beasts.

Though he'd advanced to fourth-rank and his physique had strengthened considerably, he no longer needed to sleep two full days like he had in the Thunder Secret Realm.

But several hours of rest and recovery were still necessary.

Realizing her misunderstanding, Song Qiuyun's face flushed even redder.

She lowered her head, softly murmured "Mm," and obediently followed beside Xu Jingming as they left.

Back at the villa, Xu Jingming changed into pajamas and lay on the bed.

Though Song Qiuyun and Jiang Chu weren't tired, they lay down too.

The bedroom bed was large enough for all three without any crowding.

With two lovely beauties on either side, Xu Jingming felt immense satisfaction.

He made no further moves and soon fell asleep.

Hours later, when Xu Jingming awoke, only he remained on the bed.

After an unknown length of time, when Xu Jingming woke up, he was alone in bed.

He leapt up from the bed.

The fatigue accumulated over days in the Survival Arena vanished completely—he felt fully energized!

He checked his phone: 10: 2 PM.

Stepping out of the bedroom, the living room was lit but empty; instead, sounds came from the training room.

Xu Jingming walked to the training room door and looked inside—he saw Jiang Chu training.

Jiang Chu was a student of the Element Academy, and her combat techniques were primarily ranged.

But that didn't mean she didn't need physical training.

Especially body agility—this was paramount.

In the training room, Jiang Chu was performing a series of yoga-like movements.

This routine greatly increased her bodily flexibility, making her movements more agile.

Her waist-length white hair was tied into a single ponytail, loosely hanging to her slender waist.

She was executing an extremely difficult backbend.

The pose made her combat suit cling even tighter to her body,

accentuating her slender figure and highlighting the fullness of sensitive areas.

It accentuated her slender figure while highlighting the fullness of certain sensitive areas.

Seeing Xu Jingming at the training room door, Jiang Chu was delighted.

She immediately stopped training and hurried over to him, concerned:

"How are you? Feeling better?"

"Fully recovered."

Xu Jingming grinned, glancing around: "Where's Qiuyun? Why isn't she here?"

"Qiuyun's aunt came—she went back to the Song family. Before leaving, she told me to tell you once you woke up," Jiang Chu replied.

Song Qiuyun's aunt, Zhou Ying, Xu Jingming had met before at the No. 7 Demon Cave.

Though he didn't know why she'd come now, he nodded:

"I see. Got it. Keep training—I'm going to shower."

After over ten days of fighting, he truly needed to clean up.

"Okay." Jiang Chu nodded slightly.

Her beautiful eyes followed the tall, receding back of Xu Jingming, a hint of anticipation flickering in their depths.

Only after he was gone did she step out of the training room herself...

After Xu Jingming left, she followed shortly afterward, stepping out of the training room...
