Several hours later.

Yu Clan, Moon Gazing Room.

Yu Long sat on a well-crafted wooden long chair beside his father and stared at the starry sky, giving him a relaxing feeling.

"It must have been hard for you these days, father." Yu Long commented casually, leaning on the chair.

Yu Zhan sighed, "Yeah." 

"Why don't you grow faster, have a wife, and take over the Yu Clan's business from me." He smirked at his youngest son. 

"Even though I'm still considered young and full of vigor, I don't mind retiring early." 

"Did you hear yourself there?" Yu Long rolled his eyes in disbelief.

Yu Zhan chuckled and returned calmly, "Haha, Of course. Out of my four children, you're the wisest, the most rational, and the most suitable to carry out Yu Clan's future." 

"Your eldest brother is a horny dog who only thinks with his third leg."

"Your second brother is a glutton, but at least he won't harm anyone because of it." 

"Your third brother is a fool who's more blind than someone with no eyes..." 

"Only you, my youngest son, show the qualification of a leader." He rubbed Yu Long's head roughly, messing with his hair.

"I'm ten, what do you expect..." Yu Long grumbled.

"At a young age, I already noticed your weirdness. You didn't cry as much as other kids. Even when you wanted to pee, you'd cry to call Yu Xin, Lily, or other maids first." Ignoring Yu Long's annoyance, Yu Zhan kept talking.

"When your brothers were busy playing around, indulging in our clan's wealth. You planned several steps further and began your study." 

"Martial arts, Medicine, business..." Yu Zhan closed his eyes. "You might hide it, but I know the servants around your mother and me are profound practitioners." 

"They did well covering their movement, but I have met several experts throughout my career. I noticed that the servant's breathing and steps are stronger than ordinary people." 

Yu Zhan opened his eyes slowly and gazed into his youngest son's golden eyes, "In the past, when you desired to take over some business and open new ones, You didn't reveal everything to me, didn't you?"

"You only revealed a part of it to make me agree..." 

"Well, something like that." Yu Long answered calmly.

Yu Zhan laughed helplessly and shook his head gently, "What did I do to deserve such a son..." 

Yu Zhan wasn't a samaritan. He knew the bad and good things of this horrible world. 

When he took over Yu Clan years ago and sired four children with four different wives, Yu Zhan knew his responsibility over them would be heavier. 

Yu Zhan had to gain more money, power, and influence to make them live well. Maybe Yu Zhan was too doting because three of his four sons grew up very incompetent.

And to be fair, he's always spent time growing his business. So, his children's education fell to their mother.

'As expected, Yu Xin is the best.' Yu Zhan didn't want to play favorites when it came to his wives, as he loved them equally, but his fourth wife was from a humble background, which shaped her character.

He recalled meeting her in a small city at the border of the Divine Phoenix Empire years ago. She was a charming lady, growing up under the care of two incredible parents.

And it seems that care passed down to their son, Yu Long.

That's why he didn't pry more into Yu Long's secret. He trusted his youngest son's decision.

"Uh, stop staring at me like that. Have you gone senile, Father?" Yu Long commented indifferently.

Yu Zhan laughed even more, "Hahaha... Your brat, I'm still young enough to give you younger siblings!" 

"..." Yu Long.

Yu Zhan waved his hand and changed the topic, "I heard you were doing good in the Floating Cloud City." 

"Even becoming close friends with Hongyi's daughter and son. I bet that girl is a beautiful one, isn't she?" 

"Thank god, my antisocial son finally has a friend too!" He added with a gratification.

"Tsk, Qingyue, and I are just study mates..." Yu Long answered sternly.

"You even called her by the given name, hehe~!" Yu Zhan teased his son even more. "If this goes well, we might call Hongyi for an engagement plan." 

"Whatever, I'm going to sleep!" Yu Long stood up and walked out of the moon-gazing room.

"And don't worry about my foolish older brothers." His voice echoed in the room shortly after. "I'll handle it." 

After hearing this, Yu Zhan chuckled and gazed at the starry night. One golden star outshone the others and even the moon tonight, becoming the main character in his field of vision.

"Yu Long, my son. I never joke about the last part." Yu Zhan said with a grin. After this, he has to talk about it with his fourth wife, as she must be happy knowing a girl was close to Yu Long.

...

The next morning.

Yu Long woke up like usual.

However, he immediately felt the comfortable, familiar bed. He rolled around and took a deep breath, "Ah, as expected of my bed, you're the best in the world." He patted the tailor-made bed with the highest quality material he could find.

What can he say?

Quality sleep gives Yu Long more energy.

Tidying the bed cover, Yu Long stretched his muscles and summoned his kaiju. 

Woby and Yume appeared from thin air, staring at their maker.

"Here, your sustenance." Yu Long handed them an essence sphere each.

"Nyuu!" The slime excitedly devoured the sphere.

"Thank you, my lord." Yume controlled the essence sphere with psychic power and brought it to her mouth.

"It's nothing. You two are my biggest support." Yu Long returned casually.

He ordered the kaiju to enter the Inner World again as he walked out of the bedroom and enjoyed the fresh morning air.

The sun has yet to rise.

"Agent, report." Yu Long opened his mouth.

A man in a black suit appeared and kneeled, "Yes, Lord Shadow!"

"When you were away, the Shadow Realm discovered that business clans collaborated with sects near the Drifting Cloud Mountain Range." 

"However, just recently, they started moving." 

"As I thought, huh?" Yu Long leaned on the wall. 

"Have you done an in-depth investigation?" 

"Yes." The man in a black suit nodded. "Some agents have infiltrated the business clans and related sects. They would give us information in two hours." 

"Two hours... Not bad, but keep Shadow Realm's sights on the Heavenly Spear Thunderfire Fortress. They couldn't possibly only watch from the sidelines." Yu Long added, given how that sect acts most of the time.

"I'll follow your order!" The man in a black suit responded with a determined tone.

"Go." Yu Long blinked, and the man in a black suit disappeared.

The Shadow Realm currently cultivated a passive version of the [Arts of Ghost] and [Arts of Reaper] that Yu Long created suitable for information gathering and assassination.

Unfortunately, the Shadow Realm didn't have any Sky Profound Realm Experts, as their most relevant hitter are Hong Guan, Lily, and eleven other Earth Profound Realm Shadow Agents.

Before Yu Long created Woby and made an enhanced version of Heart Opening Liquid, their training resources were 'really' limited with so many members they had. 

Even then, Yu Long created Shadow Realm not for a frontal fight. 

It's good enough for now.

Thinking about it, Shadow Realm will experience a tremendous chance soon. 

After all, Yu Long's research on profound patterns, aspects, and incarnations has borne results.

Yu Long went to the hill and cultivated [Arts of Violet Mist], dragging misty qi from the rising sun. Yang's energy rejuvenated his bone marrow and supplied him with more stamina.

Lily walked from behind, watching her young master blow a beautiful purple mist from his mouth.

She waited a few minutes and said, "Young master, Madam is calling you for breakfast." 

"And um... She was quite annoyed that you didn't visit her immediately yesterday." 

A weak smile formed on Yu Long's face as he replied, "Okay." 

They went to the courtyard where Yu Long's mother lived and saw the madam sitting in a pavilion. 

Yu Xin gazed at her son and smiled, "Come here." 

"We have many things to talk about." 

Yu Long shrugged and sat on a seat near his mother, noticing dishes were 'actually' set in an orderly manner on the stone table. Oh no, he didn't feel good about this.

Yu Xin poured warm tea for her son and herself.

As Yu Long sipped his tea, Yu Xin opened her mouth and said, "I heard you are close with Mr. Hongyi's daughter." 

"Her name is Xia Qingyue, isn't it?" 

"Why don't you tell your mother about this Qingyue girl?" She flashed a smile at him.

Cough! Cough!

"..." Yu Long choked on his tea.

Father, you traitor!
