【You and Shen Qingshan entered the Star Force Mystic Realm.】

【Before entering, Shen Yue gave Shen Qingshan endless instructions.】

【Things like, although the Founding Ancestor has a gentle temperament, that's only as long as no one touches his research results or his half-finished experiments.】

【Things like, the Founding Ancestor is approachable and kind, but only as long as no one argues with him about academic matters.】

【Things like, every single blade of grass and every tree in the Star Force Mystic Realm is a precious resource, and cannot be easily damaged, or else the Founding Ancestor will be unhappy.】

【Things like...】

【"Alright, enough with all these rules. Just leave my brother-in-law to me, you can rest easy. I know this place like the back of my hand!"】

【Shen Yue and the others were at a loss.】

【After the entrance opened, you directly pulled Shen Qingshan inside.】

【Seeing how reckless you were, the group of Shen Family high-ranking members behind you broke out in a cold sweat from sheer fright.】

【You came to this place once again.】

【Familiar with the road, you led Shen Qingshan to a grassy area, and under a willow tree, you found Shen Yang playing chess by himself.】

【"Brother Shen, I imagine the Shen Family has already informed you of the situation."】

【You started off by casually elevating yourself an entire generation above him.】

【Shen Yang didn't mind at all. He nodded at you in greeting, then turned his gaze to Shen Qingshan.】

【In the next moment, a few points of starlight flickered in his palm and flew into Shen Qingshan's brow.】

【Immediately after, a faint shadow of Shen Qingshan floated out from his body and then split into two.】

【This scene flashed by in an instant. Even Shen Qingshan himself didn't notice anything unusual, still bowing respectfully.】

【"Greetings to the Founding Ancestor. I, the junior Shen Qingshan, pay my respects."】

【Seeing that Shen Qingshan was about to kneel and kowtow, Shen Yang tossed the "chariot" piece from his hand, striking Shen Qingshan's knee. Shen Qingshan found himself unable to kneel at all and stood straight as an arrow.】

【"For the children of the Dust Lineage, I am unworthy of receiving such a grand salute from you."】

【Shen Yang's continued survival relied entirely on possessing his descendants, especially after the Myriad Stars Embrace the Moon Art matured. He had specifically preyed upon the Dust Lineage.】

【Therefore, he was very self-aware, believing he did not deserve the kneeling worship of the Dust Lineage's descendants.】

【"You truly possess the Dual-Soul Sacred Physique. Heaven has shown mercy upon me. For the next thousand years, I won't need to trouble myself with finding another body to possess. I can be one with you in heart and soul, and have more time to delve into my research. Perhaps, with this unique constitution, I can even push forward a hundred feet and make further progress!"】

【As he spoke, Shen Yang could no longer hide his delight.】

【One had to understand, with his age and experience, he had long since ceased to show his emotions on his face. For something to still move him, it had to be something that deeply touched his heart.】

【From this, one could see how precious and rare the Dual-Soul Sacred Physique truly was.】

【Wrong.】

【From this, one could see just how much Old Shen loved doing research!】

【"Shen Qingshan, do you have any thoughts or requests? Speak freely, and I can agree to any of them."】

【Shen Qingshan had already thought it through before coming.】

【"I still have a family. I hope the Shen Family can protect them for their entire lives. Also, before their natural lifespans end, even if we do merge, I need you to give me some time to control the body, so I can be with them."】

【Shen Yang smiled and nodded.】

【"You're a man of loyalty and love. That request is easy to fulfill. Until your direct blood relatives pass away, the day belongs to you, and the night belongs to me. One person gets six hours. After we merge, before the Shen Family, you will be me. You can exercise all my authority, and no one in the Shen Family will dare to defy you. However, you cannot leave the Starry Domains freely, as I need to remain in the Star Force Mystic Realm. Any other requests?"】

【"Don't do evil."】

【"Haha... Shen Qingshan, do I look like a bad person to you?"】

【"Do more good deeds."】

【This last request, Shen Yang didn't agree to immediately. Instead, he stood up and brushed off his clothes.】

【"Shen Qingshan, you are a person with a pure heart, still judging the world by good and evil... I can only promise you this: I will not shirk my duty when it comes to matters concerning the fate of heaven and earth and all living beings. But the suffering of the myriad forms of life cannot be changed by me alone. For every good deed I do, another evil act will be born. For every evil I extinguish, ten more will arise. It is meaningless for a strong being above the clouds to preside over justice in the dust."】

【You, who had been listening on the sidelines, directly started clapping.】

【"Well said! Brother Shen, there is a great matter right now concerning the fate of the world that urgently requires your and the Shen Family's strength!"】

【Without another word, you pulled out the Ten Thousand Souls Banner and released Hu Chacha.】

【Shen Yang was first surprised that you, this "brother-in-law," had so brazenly taken out the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.】

【Then a look of confusion appeared on his face, as he sensed you had released something.】

【"That's not an ordinary soul entity."】

【Shen Yang could see ordinary soul entities, but not the Soul-State of the Dragon-Man tribe. He would need to use some method, just like Hua Wuyan had to.】

【The surrounding light suddenly dimmed, leaving only faint starlight flowing in the darkness.】

【In this darkness, Hu Chacha materialized once more.】

【Hu Chacha was speechless.】

【"Again?!"]】

【Seeing Hu Chacha's appearance, Shen Yang frowned slightly.】

【"It's the Dragon-Man tribe."】

【As expected of a Martial God, encountering an alien race with such calm composure.】

【"You insisted on meeting me outside, just to tell me that the Dragon-Man tribe has already infiltrated the human world, am I right?"】

【"Exactly!"】

【"Actually, Hua Wuyan has already sent me a message. So, the Chen Yi she mentioned in her letter must be you."】

【You nodded.】

【If Hua Wuyan had already corresponded with Shen Yang, that made things much easier.】

【It saved you a ton of breath trying to explain everything.】

【"The reason I've come to see you, Brother Shen, is first, to hope you can merge with the Dual-Soul Sacred Physique, restore your peak combat power, and contribute your strength to the Seven Luminaries Immortal Array. Second, I hope you can step forward and mobilize the Shen Family's resources, unite all forces in the human world, use the Shen Family's resources and technology to arm martial artists everywhere, and form a united front to confront the enemy in advance. Third, the Dragon-Man army will most likely emerge from the Star Force Mystic Realm, because this place has the thinnest World Barrier in the human world. Defenses here must be reinforced, and more troops must be deployed for defense!"】

【The "Chinese-Style Succubus" began to exert its power.】

【Shen Yang agreed one by one to these constructive suggestions you put forward.】

【At the same time, you also completely drew out the formation blueprint of the Seven Luminaries Immortal Array for Shen Yang to study.】

【Shen Yang said that although he had never seen this formation before, based on his extensive knowledge, he could determine that this formation could indeed help the human world break the deadlock, and there were no traps hidden within it.】

【As the number one research scholar in the human world, you felt that Old Shen's insight was definitely trustworthy.】

【Earlier, you had discovered that Hua Wuyan didn't know about the Seven Luminaries Immortal Array, but in the last simulation, it was clearly she who gave the formation to Li Lingyue. You had suspected whether someone was setting a trap, but now it seemed unlikely.】

【"The Demon World has fallen. The remnants of the Demon Tribe have developed a not-insignificant branch in our human world. It would be great if they were willing to cooperate with us, or at least cause fewer problems."】

【You smiled with confidence.】

【"I'll handle the Demon Tribe side. I have some connections there too."】

【Shen Yang found you somewhat unfathomable.】

【"Just who exactly is this friend Chen Yi?"】

【"I am merely an insignificant nobody from Baiyun County."】

【"Then how are you so clear about the Dragon-Man tribe's movements?"】

【"I caught a few Dragon-Men and interrogated them for the information."】

【Hu Chacha started yelling loudly from the side.】

【"Don't talk nonsense! When did I ever say any of this?! I don't even know how you know so much!!"】

【You turned your head to look at him, your expression terrifying.】

【"Now you know."】

【Hu Chacha's expression froze, and he suddenly realized that he had inadvertently provided corroboration for your claim.】

【"Aah!! How did I ever run into a bastard like you?!"】

【This guy was completely broken by your move. You then put him back into the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.】
