Qin Qi listened but did not rush to respond with yes or no, simply pondered for a moment before asking, "What is this compass?"

Ming Hu was immediately all smiles upon hearing Qin Qi didn't refuse, "This compass is a top-tier treasure crafted by our family. It's called the Star Absorption Plate, only owned by those with very high status within our family."

"With this compass in hand, Qin Qi, my friend, can sense and connect with our family within a certain distance and range!"

"Having this compass will also help Qin Qi find our family's location more easily when entering the Secret Realm!"

Qin Qi heard this and suddenly realized, "Is this Secret Realm so vast that we need a compass just to find people?"

Ming Hu was momentarily stunned but then chuckled, "I don't know the specifics of the Secret Realm, either. But our ancestors said its vastness is beyond imagination. Even if our Ming Family is renowned, finding it without this compass might not be a quick task."

Upon hearing this, Qin Qi became even more curious about this Secret Realm.

Ming Hu stopped wasting time, slowly taking out a pouch from his sleeve.

"If Qin Qi is willing to lend a hand, this storage pouch left by our ancestors is yours as a reward."

At the mention of the storage pouch, Qin Qi was taken aback, "A storage pouch?"

Ming Hu laughed heartily, "Qin Qi has been to the Dao Inference Department, so you should have heard about its purpose."

"This pouch contains a self-contained space. Qin Qi, my friend, can store anything you wish inside it."

"Although the space inside is limited, it can hold many items that are inconvenient to carry around. And don't underestimate this pouch, few in the Martial Arts District possess one!"

Qin Qi was naturally tempted.

Having seen Master Bai Ling magically retrieve an item from a storage pouch, his curiosity was piqued.

After much thought, he finally said, "There's no need for the storage pouch. I already owe Patriarch Ming a favor, and this trip is just a convenient act!"

Ming Hu was terrified, "That won't do, Qin Qi, this storage pouch is yours to keep!"

He was well aware.

If Qin Qi didn't accept the pouch, it meant that the Ming Family's small favor was repaid.

Given Qin Qi's potential, this favor couldn't be repaid so easily!

Seeing Ming Hu insistently pushing it onto him, Qin Qi understood the intention and accepted the pouch.

Seeing Qin Qi accept it, Ming Hu finally breathed a sigh of relief, smiling, "Thank you, Qin Qi, for your help. What plans do you have next?"

Qin Qi straightforwardly said, "I'm just settling some matters before heading to the Demon Slaying Area!"

"Well then, since Patriarch Ming has explained everything, I won't linger!"

It's clear Qin Qi had intentions to leave.

Ming Hu didn't stop him on the surface.

But, his gaze had already signaled to Ming Yao.

He knew very well that his proud niece had only this last chance left!

If she didn't seize it now, she wouldn't get another opportunity.

Ming Yao understood.

Seeing Qin Qi leave, she immediately swayed her slender waist and went out.

"Qin Qi, why are you walking so fast!" Ming Yao, with a sultry look, immediately held Qin Qi's arm.

Qin Qi understood the little schemes of the Ming Family, calmly saying, "Miss Ming, is there something else?"

Ming Yao exhaled lightly.

Qin Qi had been indifferent to her since entering the Foundation Establishment Stage.

She hadn't been treated like this before.

But considering Qin Qi's current status, she had to endure.

Still, she forced a smile, "I've recently learned some tea-brewing techniques and thought to make you a cup before you leave!"

Qin Qi was curious about what Ming Yao was plotting.

He didn't refuse, nodding gently, "Alright then!"

Ming Yao affectionately took Qin Qi to a teahouse in the Ming Family Manor.

Outside the teahouse, several Ming Family servants tended to it.

After entering, Ming Yao beamed, "Brother Qin Qi, wait here for a moment while I brew the tea!"

Qin Qi watched Ming Yao leave with growing curiosity.

About ten minutes later.

When Ming Yao returned, Qin Qi raised his eyebrows, eyes filled with incredulous amazement.

For Ming Yao hadn't gone to make tea; she had changed clothes.

At this moment, Ming Yao wore a white patterned qipao, slit up to her thigh. Paired with her slender figure, it could stir any man's ambitions and thoughts.

Ming Yao, smiling brightly, boldly sat on Qin Qi's lap.

This made Qin Qi raise his eyebrows, "Did Miss Ming say she was going to brew tea? Why change clothes and sit on my lap?"

Ming Yao silently cursed.

She couldn't believe Qin Qi didn't understand her intention.

But at this point, she knew she had to seize the opportunity!

With a fragrant hand, she gently massaged Qin Qi's shoulder, "Brother Qin Qi, can't I brew tea while sitting on your lap?"

After speaking, she delicately poured a cup of hot water.

Qin Qi held her slender waist, "Weren't we drinking tea? Why just hot water? Where's the tea?"

Ming Yao took out a packet of tea leaves, teasingly waving it at Qin Qi before seductively stuffing it beneath her qipao, into the fullness resembling small white rabbits.

Ming Yao whispered, "Brother Qin Qi, if you can find the tea leaves, I'll brew tea for you, how about it!"

Qin Qi was completely enticed.

He now understood what Ming Yao was up to.

She was clearly seizing her last opportunity to seduce him!

Although he wasn't one to refuse beauty, someone like Ming Yao, a rare gem, was a hunt he wouldn't miss.

With this thought, he raised his hand, reaching into Ming Yao's qipao collar.

Then, amidst her fullness, he effortlessly retrieved the tea packet.

Ming Yao's face turned red, playfully rebuking, "Brother Qin Qi, you're so bad, taking advantage while getting the tea!"

Qin Qi mused.

No wonder they say heroes fall for beauty.

Though Ming Yao was cunning, the allure was irresistible.

However, Qin Qi knew Ming Yao wasn't easily conquered. Despite her gentle appearance, she had her scheming.

Taking advantage of her wasn't a simple task.

He pulled Ming Yao close, "I won't just take that advantage. I want more. Miss Ming, are you willing?"
