Yongjiang City, MixC Mall.
"Honey, baby will look so good in this."
Tang Xiaowu held up a children's outfit, admiring it.
"Sister Xiaowu, this one is so pretty too."
Nami happily picked up a denim jacket and showed it to Tang Xiaowu.
"I'm so envious of you two having a baby, Sister Xiaowu."
"Me too, I'm so jealous."
Yor held up a little suit, his eyes full of envy.
"Hehe, Sister Joel, you just got married, it's normal to be a little slower."
Ning Rong'er looked at the various clothes with great joy.
"Waaah~~ I got married so early, why am I not pregnant yet?"
Lin Mengqian sat dejectedly in the corner, her face full of worry.
Xue Nai squatted down, held Lin Mengqian's small hand, and gently comforted her.
"Mengqian, I'm the first one with my husband, and we're not even pregnant yet, right? Don't worry, we'll try together."
"Okay, okay, we'll take care of my husband tonight."
"Hehe, alright."
Fang Xian picked up a few children's clothes, feeling quite pleased.
The manager standing next to Fang Xian rubbed his hands together, full of obsequiousness.
"Mr. Fang, whichever one you like, I'll give it to you."
"Thank you for your kindness, but no need for that, just give me a discount."
At Fang Xian's current status, money was just a number to him, meaningless.
"Manager, how much is it?"
The manager glanced at the clothes in Tang Xiaowu and the others' hands, smiling broadly.
"Mr. Fang, these are fine with me, no need to pay."
Fang Xian turned around, giving him a mischievous grin.
"I meant all the merchandise, are you sure you want to give it to me?"
"Huh? All of it?"
"Yes, all of it, I want everything in your store."
Tang Xiaowu and the other eight pregnant women happily touched their bellies upon hearing this.
"Baby, Daddy bought you so many clothes, are you happy?"
Chen Tingxuan, like a curious child, took Tang Xiaowu's arm and asked.
"Sister Xiaowu, can the baby really hear now?"
"Hehe, the baby is still too small, of course he can't hear."
"Oh...I really want a baby too."
"Then you'll have to pester your husband more."
"Okay."
Fang Xian shook his head and smiled wryly at their words, then waved his hand, and all the children's clothing on the three floors was stored in his "System Warehouse."
He looked at the delighted mall general manager and children's clothing manager behind him and smiled slightly.
"Please note the prices down, I need to go stock up."
"Okay, okay, Mr. Fang, I'll go with you."
Several mall managers respectfully followed Fang Xian and his group, attentively serving them.
Fang Xian went through every floor, completely emptying the men's and women's sections, leaving nothing behind.
The Wardfa supermarket on the basement level was similarly emptied by Fang Xian, leaving only empty shelves and trolleys.
The manager following Fang Xian couldn't stop smiling; such a large order was simply too good to be true.
The managers of all the stores in MixC Mall were equally delighted, following behind Fang Xian, each beaming with joy.
Only the dozen or so cashiers were sweating profusely, extremely busy, and inwardly miserable.
Clothing and such items couldn't be returned, so Fang Xian bought a lot.
As for why he bought so much food that could be returned, it was simply because he was too lazy to choose, so he bought it all.
In short—money talks.
Fang Xian looked at the empty Wanxiang City and found it somewhat amusing. This was like a protagonist in a post-apocalyptic novel, reborn and hoarding supplies.
He saw Mu Wanyao return from paying, smiling and waving goodbye to a group of managers.
The managers were moved to tears, all genuinely happy and reluctant to part. Finally, one of them couldn't help but say:
"Mr. Fang, please come again."
...
More than half a month later.
The Himalayas.
Snow-capped peaks shimmered with a holy light under the sun.
This was the border between the Dragon Kingdom and India, and also the location of the "Secret Realm."
At this moment, a dazzling white light emanated from the cave where the Azure Dragon had been, and a strange energy swirled in the air.
Fang Xian and his 22 wives had been waiting for a long time. Upon seeing the light, they all slowly rose.
"The 'Secret Realm' has opened…"
Fang Xian looked at the entrance to the 'Secret Realm' and spoke softly.
"We should go."
He slowly turned around, his gaze resolute as he looked at Fang Miaomiao, Cai Cuicui, You Longming, Zhu Debiao, Lu Chengming, Old Li, Ning Tian, Ning Feng, Lin Langtian, Zhong Shenxiu, Hong Zhentian, and the "Ten Elders" who had come to see him off.
"I will definitely establish myself in the 'Secret Realm.' Come find me anytime you're bored."
Zhu Debiao laughed heartily.
"Haha! Fang Xian, remember to take me with you then."
"Yes, Principal Zhu."
"Call me Principal."
Everyone smiled knowingly at their nonsensical conversation, and the atmosphere became less heavy.
Fang Miaomiao and Cai Cuicui stepped forward, giving him repeated instructions.
"Xiao Fang, don't rush things, safety first."
"The key is to take good care of your daughter-in-law and the baby in her belly."
Fang Xian nodded emphatically, his expression complex.
"Okay, Mom and Dad, take care of yourselves too."
Xue Nai walked up to Cai Cuicui, bidding her a reluctant farewell.
The other women followed suit.
"Alright, let's go."
Fang Xian waved, and he and the women slowly walked towards the cave entrance.
They waved goodbye again, turned, and stepped into the white light, disappearing from sight.
...
"Secret Realm" Passage.
[Level 99 or above, eligible to enter.]
[Welcome to the Great Thousand World!]
[Important Notes for the Great Thousand World:
1: All races' languages and scripts are automatically learned; no additional learning is required.
2: The level cap is 1000. After leveling up, no new skills are granted; you must acquire them yourself.
3: Everyone gains one level and unlocks a new "Skill Slot."
4: Each person receives a "Skill" of random quality. Please check your skills.
5: You will arrive at your destination in five minutes. Have a pleasant journey!]
After receiving this information, everyone found themselves in a rapidly moving white tunnel.
The women looked out curiously, seeing various images flashing by.
Fang Xian wasn't interested in these; the random skills were more appealing to him.
"Take a look at the quality of the randomly generated skills first."
Upon hearing this, everyone began to check their skills.
Fang Xian opened his information panel and checked his skills.
[White Skill: Shaking Gun Technique: After activation, urination is absolutely accurate; you can urinate wherever you want, and even when you're old, you don't have to worry about it splitting or hitting your feet.
Duration: 10 seconds. Consumes 80 mana points. Cooldown: 3 minutes.
Occupies one skill slot.]
Fang Xian: ???
Heh, people really do laugh when they're speechless.
He asked the women and found that most of them had the lowest-level "White Skill Book," with only a few having "Blue Skills," one tier higher, but all of them were trash skills.
Fang Xian seriously doubted whether the random skill given away could only ever be a "Yellow Skill."
If not, then it was a real rip-off; the probability was too low.
He wondered if the people who came to the Great Thousand World before had the same experience.
Thinking about this, he suddenly thought of a possibility.
Since every newbie has one, if he started with a "Gold Skill," would the humans in the Great Thousand World obtain more resources?
Just like when he first awakened, a "golden skill" signifies better talent and the potential to go further.
Fang Xian made up his mind and slowly looked at the pile of "black skills" in his "system inventory."
Those were all "skill books" dropped by the Golden Roc; now it was time to synthesize them into
"golden skills."
