Chapter 4927

He even told the old man about the birthmark on Bai Qian’s private area, which finally convinced him. After all, only someone who had truly been with Bai Qian could know that detail.

“So you really are my son-in-law. Hurry and get up…”

The old man acknowledged Kai’s identity.

Looking Kai up and down, the old man grew increasingly fond of him. He patted Kai’s shoulder and said, “Not bad. Though your cultivation level isn’t high, you’re quite capable—and not bad-looking either. Are you two planning to have a child?”

“Not yet. We’re waiting until Bai Qian ascends to the heavens and awakens her fairy bones. That way, the child will be born with fairy bones and start strong from birth.”

“Then you can stay here and help take care of your child. You’ll get to enjoy the blessings of family…”

Kai skillfully humored the old man.

“Hahaha, then I’ll prepare lots of gifts for my future grandchild!”

The old man was overjoyed, then asked, “What’s Bai Qian’s current strength? Will she be coming to the heavens soon?”

He seemed eager, almost impatient, to see Bai Qian and for them to have a child as soon as possible.

“Very soon. Most likely, she’ll arrive the next time the Dao calls someone up,” Kai replied.

“Excellent…” the old man said, visibly excited.

Seeing the old man’s joy, Kai felt a little guilty for misleading him—but it was a harmless white lie. After all, his relationship with Bai Qian was real.

“Father-in-law, how did you figure out we were human?” Kai asked, curious.

“I noticed during the arena match. The blood aura on your body felt incredibly familiar to me.”

“And although your companion used a concealment talisman, we of the fox demon clan are extremely sensitive to auras, so I still sensed it,” the old man explained.

“Father-in-law, you’ve been in Rhino City for hundreds of years. I wonder how people here obtain cultivation resources?”

“The resources I brought from the Heavenly Realm are almost depleted. If I rely solely on the ambient heavenly and human energy, my cultivation progress will be extremely slow.”

Kai wanted to understand how to acquire more resources. With enough, and the accelerated time flow inside the Demon Suppression Tower, he was confident he could soon break through to the Immortal Realm.

“In truth, aside from the heavenly energy between heaven and earth, there are very few resources in this realm. That’s why the three major tribes are divided and constantly at war,” the old man explained.

“These conflicts are all about resources. It’s not just wars between tribes—even cities within the same tribe will annex each other for the sake of cultivation materials.”

“But if you’re looking for resources, you should try to join the City Lord’s Mansion as a worshiper. That position grants access to plenty of cultivation supplies.”

“The City Lord’s Mansion regularly sends people outside the city to plunder resources from the Hell Jungle.”

“Alternatively, you can enter the black market boxing arenas. In this beast city, everyone is competitive and loves to fight. The match you just had on the high platform was an official arena match.”

“But Rhino City also has a black market arena. It’s based on raw physical combat too. The difference is, in the black market you can place bets. If you win, you earn immortal coins that can be used to buy various resources.”

The old man explained everything clearly to Kai. After all, this was his son-in-law—he needed to guide him properly.

After hearing all that, Kai felt that joining the City Lord’s Mansion might be unrealistic for now, as his current strength wasn’t enough. But he could definitely try his hand in the black market arena.

“Father-in-law, it’s getting late. Stay here tonight and take me to the black market tomorrow,” Kai said.

“Alright. With your skills and physical strength, winning a few matches shouldn’t be a problem!” the old man replied with a nod.

Kai then brought the old man into the Demon Suppression Tower. Inside, time flowed much faster—one night of practice here was equivalent to ten nights outside.

Seeing the Demon Suppression Tower and hearing Kai describe its unique time-acceleration ability, the old man was astonished.

“My son-in-law is truly something…”

The old man was growing more and more fond of Kai.
