My Core is the Boss

"Don't worry. I'm experimenting already. I'm preparing to swallow another star. When the time comes, I'll secretly drop it and scare that old fellow senseless."

Upon hearing that, Qi Qi could not help but give a thumbs up. "Godfather really is one in a billion. Our world has countless Core Formation cultivators, but not a single one has ever formed a Golden Core like this!"

No one knew whether she meant it as praise or sarcasm.

"The Mortal Heart World really does fall a bit short," Qi Yuan replied. "I know a friend, he doesn’t only form a Golden Core, but also a Nascent Soul."

Qi Yuan thought of Lord Great Wisdom, who lived up to his name.

With a soft slurping sound, Qi Qi took a sip of soup before setting down her porcelain spoon. "Godfather, to be honest, I think you’ll benefit more from forming a Star Nascent Soul than a Star Golden Core."

Qi Yuan listened earnestly. "How so?"

Qi Qi shared what she knew. "The Nascent Soul is a True God’s foundation. The god is only as strong as the soul that sustains it. The Core Formation is just a transitional stage anyway. You’d have to destroy your Golden Core sooner or later. Even if you don’t take it seriously, it won't affect anything."

Qi Yuan shook his head. "Ah, I feel like I just wasted my time. You really can’t compare to Lord Great Wisdom. At times, a single sentence from him is enough to enlighten me completely."

Seeing that their exchange had ended, Zhao Zun reported about Feiwu City’s situation to Qi Yuan. Though, Qi Qi was the one who listened attentively.

Then, Zhao Zun added, "Qiyuann Sovereign, while I was in Feiwu City, I encountered an old acquaintance. She asked me to deliver a gift for you."

Zhao Zun then recounted how he had met Yang Lian, as well as her younger sister’s predicament. He also relayed Yang Lian's words: her sister was frail and did not wish to meet strangers.
