“Please confirm the receipt!”

“Lin Xu received!”

Lin Xu smiled slightly, and with the bonus of his aura, his already handsome face became even more intoxicating for women. With a slight bow, he said:

“Thank you, Envoy. Please take your time leaving!”

At the same time, a blue light suddenly surged from the horizon, like a tide rapidly converging over the manor, forming a tall blue human figure in the air. A suffocating pressure came over like a tide, making everyone in the entire manor palpitate, yet it vanished like lightning in a flash.

The Lamp God Envoy was the first to bow to the phantom figure before leaving.

Lin Xiao’s eyes shone as he stared at the blue phantom and murmured:

“True God!

It was his second great-uncle, one of only two True Gods in the family, and not even an incarnation.

As True Gods, their true bodies and incarnations are stationed in the family dimension year-round, and they traverse the Main World through projections, for they can only be projections.

It’s mainly because True Gods are too powerful. Mortals can not only not look directly at them, but even the radiation of Divine Power they naturally emit is unbearable. Any non-divine or non-legendary beings would be involuntarily influenced by the Divine Power radiation if they stayed around a True God for too long, eventually twisting their thoughts into that of zealous believers.

The appearance of the second great-uncle was just to nod at Grandfather and say a lukewarm congratulations before saying to Shen Yuexin with a seemingly amiable expression:

“Little girl from the Shen family, how is the old patriarch doing?”

Shen Yuexin bowed slightly, neither humble nor arrogant in her reply:

“The old patriarch is well.”

“That’s good to hear.”

After nodding, the second great-uncle’s projection suddenly changed the topic:

“I hear you’ve also received an invitation to the Super Newcomer Summer Camp. My son happens to be your classmate. Seeing as the time is approaching, why not travel together? It would be good to have some company.”

It was evident to anyone with a bit of discernment that he was attempting to bring the two together.

Grandfather’s face turned sour at this, but he had no right to object, not only because it was his own brother but also because he was a True God, and the girl was not his own descendant.

He could only sigh, wishing his offspring were more promising, for if they had been, he would have had the courage to argue for an opportunity with his own brother for his descendants.

This girl was from his wife’s maternal family, the Shen’s of Prefecture City, a powerful True God family with intermediate Divine Powers. They were even ranked high among the top families in the Prefecture City. If only…

He suddenly sighed and let the thought go. It was impossible – she was the direct line of the Shen’s, excelling in her own right, unlike his wife who was from a collateral branch. And there were no outstanding talents among his own offspring; there was simply no chance.

On the other hand, Lin Xu looked at Shen Yuexin with eyes full of expectation, only to see her shaking her head, saying:

“Elder, you jest. This is not appropriate.”

The second great-uncle laughed and said:

“It’s quite nice for young people to travel and study together.”

“Elder, you jest. This is not appropriate.”

The same words, but the displeasure and reluctance in her tone were unmistakable to anyone, leaving the second great-uncle momentarily stunned, his expression slowly darkening. Meanwhile, the sky over the manor grew dark, and the temperature gradually fell.

Just then, the Vault of Heaven, which had become overcast, suddenly brightened with a thunderous roar. Where the Lamp Demigod had disappeared, a golden mist brightened, quickly expanding and unfolding into a massive vortex, with streams of golden light spewing forth non-stop.

To the surprise of everybody, the same Lamp God emerged from the vortex, his body shrouded in a blue mist, and holding a card identical to the one before. With eyes like searchlights, he swept his gaze over the manor and said in a deep voice:

“Federation citizen Lin Xiao, citizen ID number txwd542i54895i47, you have a parcel delivery, please check!”

A dazzling column of light struck Lin Xiao in the crowd, fluff floated in the midst of the glowing mist, making him look as radiant as a celestial being.

At that moment, all eyes were on him as the vast majority who did not recognize who Lin Xiao was filled with shock, far more surprised than when Lin Xu received the Super Newcomer Summer Camp invitation.

“You little rascal!”

Jin Yunzhu covered her mouth as she gazed at her precious son, tears of joy glistening in her eyes.

Lin Haolin, who seldom smiled, also had a smile on his face. Turning his head, he saw the incredulous expressions on his two brothers and the relieved smile on their father’s face.

“Lin Xiao is here!”

He stepped forward to greet the Divine Envoy with a slight bow, reaching out both hands. A streak of golden light fell from the sky into his hands, turning into an exquisitely made card of unknown material, on which was written Super Newcomer Summer Camp invitation.

It was real. The old headmaster had indeed given the spot to him.

He pocketed the card and bowed to the Demigod Envoy:

“Send-off to the Envoy!”

After the Demigod Envoy left, Jin Yunzhu rushed over holding the hem of her dress, slapping him on the forehead:

“You rascal, keeping something like this from your mother!”

With that, she snatched the card from his hands.

Lin Xiao just shrugged. His mother wasn’t upset about him keeping it a secret, but rather that he didn’t tell her sooner so she couldn’t show off in front of the sisters-in-law and other ladies.

Looking back, he saw Grandfather motioning to him:

“Child, come here.”

He walked over, stopping for a moment as he passed Lin Xu, bowing slightly and saying:

“Lin Xu… Uncle, I am Lin Xiao.”

This point really made him want to complain; it seemed he was truly the youngest of his generation. Rarely meeting someone younger with a higher family rank, he still had to call him “uncle.”

Of course, Lin Xu himself probably wanted to complain even more, being called “uncle” by anyone older than him – it was quite helpless.

For the first time, Lin Xu seriously sized up a peer of the same clan. Before, he never took peers of his clan seriously, nor did he respect those who still basked in the glory carved out by their ancestors. Had it not been for today, he wouldn’t have known that there was another outstanding peer in the family.

No, in some ways, this young man in front of him was even more excellent than himself because his background certainly wasn’t as good as Lin Xu’s.

He unusually put aside his pride and said in a very formal manner:

“I never thought the younger generation of the Lin family wouldn’t all be good-for-nothings. My name is Lin Xu, I’m glad to meet you. We’ll have the chance to talk more in the future!”

“Sure.”

After nodding, Lin Xu bowed slightly to Shen Yuexin and said:

“I regret that we cannot travel together, so let’s meet again at the summer camp.”

Shen Yuexin merely pursed her lips in response and did not speak, seemingly a bit annoyed.

As soon as Lin Xu left, the projection of his second great-uncle naturally did not stay any longer. He looked deeply at Lin Xiao, then dissolved into the sky in a burst of clear light and vanished.

By now, Lin Xiao had approached his grandfather, who beckoned him closer, reached out to touch his hair with a smile that grew even deeper, nodding repeatedly:

“Good, very good!”

He looked up, glanced around, and waved his hand:

“Everyone can disperse now.”

Then, looking down and taking his hand, he said benignly:

“Child, come with me.”

Lin Xiao immediately felt countless envious and jealous gazes, but since his grandfather was pulling him, he had no choice but to follow him back to the house.

In the room, only Lin Xiao, his grandfather, grandmother, and father were present; even his two uncles had not followed.

His grandfather sat at the head of the table, took a sip of the tea his father handed him, and asked soothingly:

“Child, tell your grandfather how you obtained this super newcomer summer camp slot.”

Lin Xiao did not hide anything, and he explained in detail how he might have secured the spot, of course, excluding things he should not reveal, like the Creation Rubik’s Cube.

Even so, it was a shocking tale, especially when he described how he created a new race recognized by the unknowable rules; he could see the sparkle in his grandfather’s eyes.

After finishing his selective narration, his grandfather’s smile became irrepressible, and he burst into hearty laughter:

“Who would have thought, a heavenly-sent unicorn, my grandson has the Pose of True God!”

“Very good, very good!”

He excitedly fumbled in his chest a few times and pulled out a golden card, handing it to Lin Xiao:

“Take this, it’s your grandfather’s congratulatory gift!”

“Thankyou, Grandpa!”

Lin Xiao didn’t stand on ceremony and looked at the card he had received; it was a Divinity Card of exceedingly rare quality — Fertile Black Soil with an area of 4 kilometers by 4 kilometers.

It wasn’t much different in terms of the size of the Divine Realm he had expanded by devouring the sanctuary of the Snake People Demigod, but it was more valuable, as the sanctuary had expanded the Divine Realm into barren land, while the Divinity Card added fertile black soil.

Divinity Cards, like Divinity Cards, are high-quality cards that one can never have enough of, and he immediately kept it.

Afterward, his grandparents chatted with him for a long while, mostly inquiring about his school life, occasionally sharing some stories of the grandfather’s past.

His father stood by, intermittently reheating the tea that had cooled to serve his grandparents.

Lin Xiao wanted to pour the tea for his father, but his grandfather held him back.

After talking for a bit, the grandfather abruptly changed the subject and asked his grandmother:

“What do you think, with Xiao’er’s circumstances, is it possible that he could match up to Yuexin?”

The grandmother shook her head outright:

“Yuexin’s aspirations are higher than you imagine, she didn’t even spare a glance for your second brother’s son, would she look at your grandson?”

That displeased the grandfather, who retorted with widened eyes:

“That’s debatable; my grandson is so outstanding, creating an intermediate race at such a young age — he certainly has the Pose of True God. How could he not be worthy of her?”

“That’s impossible anyway.”

“Then explain to me, what kind of person would be worthy of her?”

The grandfather was insisting stubbornly, refusing to let the matter go.

It seemed the grandmother didn’t want to talk about this, but pressed by her husband, she finally said:

“Do you know what kind of background Yuexin comes from?”

“Isn’t she the daughter of a sister you used to be good friends with?”

“And do you know who her father is?”

“Who is he?”

“Unspeakable.”

“Don’t know?”

“Wait, is it unspeakable?”

The grandfather’s expression suddenly became serious, and he looked intently at the grandmother, who nodded.

“Sssh!”

Lin Xiao unexpectedly heard both his grandfather and father inhale sharply, followed by silence.

He could not help asking:

“Grandpa, are you alright?”

After a long silence, the grandfather patted his hand, saying:

“It’s nothing, grandson. Forget about that young lady; your grandfather will find you a beautiful one, with a good figure for bearing children.”

Lin Xiao was taken aback, somewhat caught between laughter and tears:

“Grandpa, you are overthinking it; besides, I didn’t say I like Miss Shen.”

A strong hand patted his shoulder, and the old grandfather gave him a knowing look, leaving him utterly baffled.

Is grandpa so worldly now?

But it was very real, and moreover, he treated him very well; even as he and his father left, the grandfather reiterated that he must find a beautiful granddaughter – in – law..
