“【Great Dragon Country * * Bank】Your account ending in 5373 completed a cash deposit transaction of 720,000 RMB on November 5th at 16:05, with a balance of 821,022.24.”
Zhou Qi was very happy to see his account balance restored to 800,000, and his next plan could now be implemented.
Immediately, Zhou Qi began placing orders online, preparing to spend all 800,000 on Yellow Mealworms and have them all sent to the Underground Base for breeding.
As the only species Zhou Qi had discovered so far with the “Light of the Clan” talent, coupled with their extremely strong reproductive ability, they had undoubtedly become the best choice for breeding.
Zhou Qi communicated with the seller, just as he did when buying Earthworms last time, agreeing on a price of 5 yuan per jin, and asked them to deliver it tomorrow evening before hanging up the phone.
Looking at his phone's call history, he saw that Liang Xiaoxi had sent him a message asking, “What are you doing?”
Although the Intermediate Titan Overlord Body brought Zhou Qi a powerful Physique, it caused him to be unable to vent his energy every day.
(Intermediate Titan Overlord Body: You're just purely horny, how can you blame it on me?)
Zhou Qi immediately replied: “I’m at the farm. How are things on your side now?”
Unexpectedly, Liang Xiaoxi then sent a message: “Do you want to come over? I’ve prepared a barbecue at home.”
Without a second thought, Zhou Qi replied, “I’m on my way.”
He then suppressed the heat in his heart, closed the door of the breeding shed, and drove off.
If it weren't for the early hour, Zhou Qi would have flown over long ago.
It took him about ten minutes to cover a dozen kilometers. Zhou Qi parked his car outside Liang Xiaoxi’s family farm.
As soon as he got out of the car, he saw the big black dog in the yard run out and circle around Zhou Qi, completely different from the first time he visited.
As soon as Zhou Qi entered the yard, he saw Liang Xiaoxi setting up the barbecue grill.
“You came so fast, I’m still preparing things,” Liang Xiaoxi said with a smiling face.
Zhou Qi was momentarily lost in thought. When they first met a while ago, Liang Xiaoxi rarely smiled when she had to stay at his house to avoid debt. Now, he saw how truly beautiful she was.
“Time to snap out of it.” Liang Xiaoxi waved her hand in front of Zhou Qi’s eyes, a blush flashing across her face, and she said playfully.
Zhou Qi gave an awkward smile, feeling a little embarrassed.
The two no longer brought up the topic and walked into the yard together. The barbecue grill was already set up, and the charcoal fire was burning vigorously.
Fresh ingredients were laid out on it: sizzling lamb skewers, golden corn, plump chicken wings, and juicy vegetables.
Liang Xiaoxi sat in front of the grill, asked Zhou Qi to sit next to her, and skillfully flipped the ingredients, brushing them with oil and sauce. The aroma grew richer.
“Come, try my cooking.” She handed a grilled lamb skewer to Zhou Qi. They sat on the wooden chairs in the yard, eating, drinking, and chatting.
Liang Xiaoxi tilted her head slightly, looking at the twinkling stars in the sky, and whispered, “Zhou Qi, actually, my family has always been troubled. My mother passed away when I was little.”
A hint of melancholy flashed in her eyes. “My father was addicted to gambling. A few years ago, after owing a large sum in loan shark debts, he disappeared. Now I don’t know if he’s alive or dead.”
Liang Xiaoxi paused, then took another sip of beer. “Those few days I stayed at your house, I envied you. Uncle Zhou and Auntie are both very kind.”
Zhou Qi listened quietly, nodding occasionally, feeling more sympathy for Liang Xiaoxi in his heart. He gently patted Liang Xiaoxi’s shoulder and comforted her: “It’s okay, you still have me as a friend in the future. If you have anything bothering you, you can tell me.”
The night grew deeper. The Golden Crow pressed against the Jade Rabbit, emitting sounds that made one blush, and the big black dog in the yard stayed awake all night.

November 6, 2016
Current Evolution Points: 7,806,000.
When the sun was high in the sky, Liang Xiaoxi woke up. Opening her eyes, she found Zhou Qi staring at her. Their eyes met, and Liang Xiaoxi quickly pulled the quilt over her head.
Last night, she became the first person to experience the power of the Intermediate Titan Overlord Body, and the price was waking up this morning feeling sore all over.
“Zhou Qi, you, you go out first.” Liang Xiaoxi felt her vocal cords trembling.
“You didn’t say that last night. You women change your minds too quickly,” Zhou Qi teased.
But he still obediently put on his clothes and walked out of the room. Stretching, Zhou Qi had never felt his body so relaxed, so he stretched and moved his body in the yard.
A short while later, Liang Xiaoxi emerged from the house, wearing a cream-colored floral dress paired with light brown short boots, walking with a slight sway.
Upon seeing Zhou Qi, she couldn't help but bury her head in her chest, not daring to meet his gaze, a blush spreading across her delicate face.
Zhou Qi smiled, walked over and helped Liang Xiaoxi, saying mischievously, “You’re not feeling well, so you should just sit.”
Listening to Zhou Qi’s teasing, Liang Xiaoxi couldn't help but get annoyed, and her slender fingers pinched Zhou Qi’s waist hard.
“Ow, have mercy on me.” Even though it didn't hurt, Zhou Qi pretended to be in pain and begged for mercy repeatedly.
The two then lingered together. As it was getting dark, Zhou Qi suggested that Liang Xiaoxi go home with him, but Liang Xiaoxi refused, saying they should wait a while longer.
Zhou Qi then left Liang Xiaoxi’s place alone and drove back without stopping.
As dusk fell, a truck was already parked at the entrance of the breeding farm. Zhou Qi got out of the car and saw the truck driver about to make a call, so he quickly said there was no need to call, as he was the one receiving the goods.
Zhou Qi went inside the farm to find a handcart, and the two began to move the goods. It didn't take long to finish.
Zhou Qi looked around to make sure no one was there, then locked the gate tightly. He pulled the handcart into the breeding shed.
An evolution origin point had been placed inside the shed. Zhou Qi opened the Evolution Space and activated his Mental Power, moving boxes of Yellow Mealworms into it.
Currently, Zhou Qi’s Mental Inner Realm was nearly a hundred meters in size, which could extend ten times in reality, meaning nearly a thousand meters.
As for the strength of his Mental Power, Zhou Qi had calculated it based on the increase in his Mental Energy during this period: the size of the Inner Realm multiplied by a hundred times was the strength of his Mental Power.
In other words, a Mental Inner Realm of 100 meters in radius could control a force of a hundred times, which is 10,000 kilograms.
Through spatial transfer, Zhou Qi arrived at the Underground Base with Yellow Mealworms weighing a full 100,000 jin.
In the Underground Base, the Ten-Order Firefly had already begun to push deeper, illuminating the distant areas.
Zhou Qi looked at the current location of the Eight-Order Army Ant Queen, which was like a beach, occupying a very small area, while the other side was a vast underground lake.
Fourth-Order Four Fiends Insect Soldiers and Fourth-Order Spiked Horned Beetles formed a Great Wall-like defense line along the lake shore, and the caves on the stone wall had begun to become Yellow Mealworm breeding grounds.
It has been discovered through breeding Yellow Mealworms that species that consume fourth-order tai sui meat can Break through their life limit and promote the life evolution of the species.
Some Yellow Mealworms are now growing faster and faster after eating tai sui meat, and their resistance has become stronger, no longer requiring specific environmental conditions for breeding, as Zhou Qi was pondering.
Fourth-Order Army Ants crawled over, their mandibles directly tearing open the cardboard boxes, and then they directly picked out the Yellow Mealworms from inside and sent them into the caves.
