As Qin Hanchu returned, Axiang immediately sensed it.
Not long after, Axiang flew over holding their daughter.
"Daddy's back, go find Daddy," Axiang said, placing Baili Caixia on the ground and pointing at Qin Hanchu.
Baili Caixia had not forgotten Qin Hanchu, and she happily ran towards him.
Seeing his adorable daughter, Qin Hanchu's heart warmed.
He crouched down, then smiled and opened his arms.
Soon, Baili Caixia threw herself into Qin Hanchu's arms, and Qin Hanchu picked her up.
"Good girl, did you miss Daddy?" Qin Hanchu said, nuzzling Baili Caixia's head with his own and smiling.
Qin Hanchu's actions made Baili Caixia giggle with laughter.
Holding his daughter, Qin Hanchu came to Axiang's side and said, "I'm back."
"All done?" Axiang asked.
Qin Hanchu nodded, "Yes, a very fruitful trip!"
"That's good," Axiang replied.
As they were chatting, Han Tian and his wife also walked over.
After a brief conversation, Qin Hanchu took his wife and daughter back to their residence in the area.
The next day, Qin Hanchu found Jiu Feng.
He handed over some of the low-level resources he had obtained during his trip to Jiu Feng.
Although these resources were low-level, they were treasures to Jiu Feng and the others.
With the help of these resources, the people stationed here could quickly improve their strength.
Combined with Zhu Yun's guidance, the progress of these individuals would not be slower than that of the Dragon Gate members.
In addition, Qin Hanchu also distributed resources from the Profound Realm to his subordinates and to Han Tian and his wife.
After completing these tasks, he took Axiang back to the Divine Continent.
He still had to send some resources to Qin Feng and Hu Qingshan to enhance their strength.
At critical moments, they would still be relied upon to open the underground palaces of the nine ancient clans.
They traveled leisurely and took a full half a month to reach the Dragon Gate.
Upon seeing the massive amount of resources sent by Qin Hanchu, Hu Qingshan was shocked, "Where did you get this?"
"I snatched it."
"The items are yours now; distribute them as you see fit," Qin Hanchu said.
"I want to go out and snatch resources too," Qin Feng remarked.
"Without reaching the Profound Realm, going out to snatch resources is like sending yourself to your death."
Although Qin Feng was a born spirit body, he was only equivalent to a bloodline spirit beast.
He had no ability to fight beyond his own realm.
If he encountered a strong opponent, he would surely die.
Without the augmentation of the Divine Continent, Qin Hanchu would also have no ability to fight beyond his realm.
The augmentation of the Great World had indeed given Qin Hanchu immense power.
However, whether this was a blessing or a curse was still unclear.
"I will improve my strength as quickly as possible," Qin Feng said.
"There is one more thing you need to pay attention to..."
Next, Qin Hanchu explained the matter of ancient powerhouses taking over bodies for reincarnation.
Anyone capable of reincarnation through body possession, like Zhu Yun, would definitely be a powerhouse at the Profound God level.
Although these individuals had to re-cultivate after taking over a body, their cultivation knowledge remained.
By recruiting these individuals, the cultivation system and techniques of the Dragon Gate could be enriched.
Furthermore, these reincarnated individuals should have Profound artifacts around them.
Whether to seize them for oneself or to win them over with virtue was irrelevant to Qin Hanchu.
Qin Hanchu was the chosen one; what he desired was the overall improvement of the martial arts world.
As for the matter of the underground palaces, they could investigate it themselves.
After making the arrangements, Qin Hanchu's family lived at the Dragon Gate for a few days.
During these days, Jin Hailu, Lin Ying, and Tang Siwei visited together.
They each brought beautiful small clothes and toys for Baili Caixia.
Another week passed, and Qin Hanchu's family of three returned to the island.
Qin Hanchu wanted to spend time with his daughter, but he also had to ensure his own strength.
Ultimately, Qin Hanchu decided to spend one morning each day with his daughter.
For the rest of his time, he would cultivate.
Time flew by, and a year had passed.
By now, Baili Caixia could not only walk steadily but also speak many words.
She had already begun to learn martial arts.
Besides Axiang's care, Liu Xue and Liu Yu also doted on their junior sister.
Baili Caixia was like a shadow to Liu Xue and Liu Yu.
On this day, Qin Hanchu finished his cultivation.
"Senior Brother, I'm hidden!"
Baili Caixia's young voice called out.
Baili Caixia's adorable face was full of a happy smile, as she hid behind a rock.
Although Liu Yu was young, he was already a Grandmaster-level martial artist.
Through his hearing, he knew exactly where Baili Caixia was.
However, to tease Baili Caixia, he pretended to know nothing.
"I'm starting to search."
"Caixia, where are you?"
"Why can't I find you?"
Hearing Liu Yu's calls, Baili Caixia covered her mouth and giggled.
Seeing Baili Caixia's happy expression, Qin Hanchu also smiled.
"Caixia, I can't find you, I admit defeat," Liu Yu pretended to search for a while and then called out.
Hearing this, Baili Caixia jumped out from behind the rock, "Senior Brother is so silly, I'm here."
"Caixia is so good, your Senior Brother can't find you."
Qin Hanchu appeared beside them and smiled.
"Ba ba..."
Although Baili Caixia could speak many words, her pronunciation was not very standard.
Seeing Qin Hanchu, she happily ran over.
Qin Hanchu picked her up and smiled, kissing Baili Caixia's little face.
"Grand-Senior Uncle," Liu Yu respectfully greeted.
Qin Hanchu nodded with a smile, "Go back and cultivate first, I'll watch your junior sister."
"Okay," Liu Yu nodded and then said to Baili Caixia, "Goodbye, little junior sister."
"Senior Brother, goodbye..." Baili Caixia, instead of saying goodbye, said "see you owes debt..."
After Liu Yu left, Qin Hanchu, holding Baili Caixia, asked, "Is today's martial arts lesson finished?"
"Yes, Mommy said I could play for a while," Baili Caixia said, wrapping one arm around Qin Hanchu's neck.
"What do you want to play? I'll take you," Qin Hanchu said.
"I want to see the big sharks and big octopuses!" Baili Caixia pointed at the seawater.
"Okay, but you're not allowed to go into the water by yourself, understand?"
Baili Caixia was still young, and Qin Hanchu needed to keep her away from deep water.
Of course, even if she didn't listen, it wouldn't matter.
Qin Hanchu and Axiang's spiritual power was always locked onto Baili Caixia.
Every move she made was under their surveillance.
"Yes, I'll listen to Daddy," Baili Caixia said happily.
Qin Hanchu picked up Baili Caixia and then plunged into the sea.
"Let's go see the big fish!"
Before Baili Caixia's voice had faded, Qin Hanchu had already entered the water with her.
Qin Hanchu's power transformed into a shield, directly forcing the seawater back.
He carried Baili Caixia and swam through the sea.
Soon, an octopus the size of a car swam past them.
"Big octopus!"
Baili Caixia pointed at the large octopus and laughed happily.
"There's a big whale ahead."
Saying this, Qin Hanchu led Baili Caixia forward!
