"Back then, it took our Zerg a lot of effort to get rid of the threat that was Koti. Even his teacher, the 'Lord of Chaos,' couldn't resurrect his disciple by reversing time and space."
The gentle voice said, "List Lin Hao as number one, and I will report this to the clan... To deal with Lin Hao, we can't rely on ourselves alone. You may leave now."
"Yes."
The man in the golden robe respectfully withdrew.
……
In the vast universe, the three most powerful races—the Zerg, the Machine Race, and the Demon Race—are located near the human race's territory, and their battles against each other are the most brutal.
Not only the Zerg, but also the intelligence forces of the Machine Race and the Demon Race lurking in human territory have raised their threat level to the highest level, waiting for an opportunity to assassinate Lin Hao.
……
Half a month later, on Qiongyu Star.
The moonlight, like a ribbon, cast a silvery glow across the room.
Lin Hao's gaze was fixed on Qinia, whose signature silver hair was slightly disheveled, with a few strands soaked with sweat, sliding down her slender neck and cheeks that were already flushed like the evening glow.
"enough!"
Qinia suddenly looked up, her chest heaving violently. Lightning crackled and leaped intensely in her azure eyes, like a suppressed thunderstorm. "Lin Hao!"
Her voice trembled slightly, as if resisting some immense gravitational pull, "Tell me, you clearly... why do you keep provoking me and Brolin?! What do you take us for, tools to be played with?!"
Her eyes, crackling with lightning, stared intently at him, a mixture of shame, anger, grievance, and a hint of heartache she herself refused to acknowledge.
Lin Hao listened quietly, his carefree smile fading, leaving only an astonishing focus and burning intensity in his eyes.
"why?"
He asked softly, his voice low, "The reason is simple..."
His fingertips lifted her chin, forcing her to look directly into the burning, unwavering flame in his eyes.
"Because the word 'like' is too inadequate. They are themselves, and you..."
His breath almost burned the sensitive skin of her earlobe. "Qinya, from the first moment I saw you, you were the exception that made my heart race."
The next second, Lin Hao's left arm had already wrapped around her slender waist, which contained powerful domain strength, in a domineering and firm manner. The scorching heat from his palm seemed to ignite the skin under her clothes.
In the instant she froze, his right arm quietly slipped under her knees, carrying her with undeniable strength, and steadily lifted her entire light yet powerful body into the air.
"Ugh... Put me down! You bastard..."
Qinia's exclamation was cut off.
She looked up at his burning gaze so close to hers, and her last line of defense, called reason, crumbled inch by inch in the face of his absolute dominance and undeniable, intense emotions.
"hehe……"
She struggled slightly to break free, panting heavily, "You brat! You really think I'd hold back when I'm messing with you? In the virtual universe... I'd never bother clicking that stupid 'anti-harassment' button!"
This sentence is like the last spark that ignites a raging fire.
……
Unlike the virtual universe where everyone has a body at the level of a low-level warrior, the domain lord-level Qinia brought Lin Hao a completely new experience.
The tingling, stimulating sensation of lightning was a scene he had never imagined.
It almost caused him to accidentally break through to the Stellar level and miss the Peak Genius Battle.

Chapter 62 Space Management Master (Please read this today!)
Lin Hao looked at the newly added star point on the panel. It was clearly a distance away from the existing five star points and flickered faintly in the vast star map.
With a thought, the space around him rippled and twisted, and he felt a mysterious power. Then, the light and shadow before his eyes changed, and a moment later he was standing in a secluded space.
The alluring woman next to me is undergoing gravity training; it turns out this is a gravity chamber.
The commotion was quite significant, and Babata couldn't help but exclaim, "Lin Hao?! Isn't your teleportation supposed to be random? How could you travel such a great distance with such precision this time?!"
"Lin Hao!"
The other girls were also startled by the commotion and rushed into the gravity chamber.
"You...you weren't in the Qianwu Secret Realm?"
Even Yao Rao was a little confused.
"Aren't you surprised by the new skill you've learned?"
"Really? Is this some kind of secret technique you learned somewhere to create a clone?"
Lin Hao put his arm around the waist of the beauty in front of him and spun her around: "Why don't you try and see?"
For a moment, the gravity chamber, which was originally quite spacious, felt a bit crowded, yet it was incredibly enchanting.
Babata was left both angry and ashamed, and was going crazy all by himself.
……
In the evening, Lin Hao squatted on the lawn, with a large pile of spatial rings spread out in front of him.
Babata felt a pang of heartache watching Lin Hao's actions: "Be gentle! That ring contains Locke's Divine Water; a single drop is enough to buy the entire planet White Orchid!"
"Don't worry, there's plenty of this stuff. We're dividing the spoils."
Lin Hao took out five spatial rings and slipped them onto their fingers, saying, "The resources and treasures inside are enough for you to use until you reach the Domain Lord level."
He turned and tossed a spatial ring to Luo Feng, saying, "Junior Brother, you can decide how to distribute the contents of this."
Luo Feng weighed the ring in his hand. "Thanks, but you really didn't secretly plunder the Qianwu Kingdom's treasury?"
With a quick glance using his mental power, he saw a pile of treasures he didn't recognize. Even the few he recognized were worth more than everything he had gained in the Realm Within a Realm!
"Take it or leave it. If you don't want it, give it all to Lao Jia."
Lin Hao tossed Jia Yi another spatial ring, saying, "The resources in this ring are enough for the martial artists of our China. Also..."
His expression suddenly turned serious. "I'm truly sorry to have to put you through this. Although I can provide you with resources and access to the virtual universe anonymously, I still won't allow you to leave Earth in reality. Furthermore, you cannot reveal any information about Earth or me in the virtual universe!"
Jia Yi stroked the Qianwu Universe national emblem embossed on the ring and said in a deep voice, "Although you have been unwilling to say the reason, based solely on the last trip to Qiulong Star and the bits and pieces you learned in the virtual universe..."
"I understand your good intentions. Don't worry, those who can access the virtual universe are all like-minded comrades who have undergone rigorous screening. Others can't cause much trouble."
……
Late at night, in the bedroom of Qiongyu Star Manor.
'You heartless bastard, you ran away as soon as you got what you wanted…'
Qinia angrily wiped the lightning sword, wishing she could stab a thousand holes in someone.
Suddenly attacked from behind.
She retaliated with an elbow strike, but instead crashed into a familiar embrace: "Didn't you say you were going back to your hometown to be with your family? Why are you back so soon..."
"I'm here to keep Xiao Leiling company while she works the night shift."
Lin Hao twirled a strand of her silver hair with his fingertip and once again challenged himself with the high-difficulty lightning-type training at the Domain Lord level.
……
Within the inner region of the Qianwu Secret Realm, on an island estate suspended above a lake of liquid cosmic energy.
The energy here was so dense, like a tangible tide, washing over Brolin's body, every cell greedily absorbing it.
She wore a dark purple, form-fitting soft armor that facilitated cultivation, outlining her exquisite curves.
He sat cross-legged on a warm, smooth jade stone by the lake, guiding the flow of energy, with faint starlight shimmering around him.
Although they said they didn't want it, the "inner domain cultivation privilege" was a rare opportunity even for the entire Black Dragon Mountain Empire.
"Hmph, this bastard... finally did something decent."
Brolin finished her practice and stood up, her red lips slightly pursed.
The environment was truly exceptional, but the thought of Lin Hao's smug expression as he granted her access made her inexplicably angry.
He clearly said he wanted to date me, but he's always clinging to that silver-haired domain lord!
Does anyone even respect her anymore?
Just then, Lin Hao's figure appeared in the distance, still wearing that lazy and playful smile.
"Oh, Your Highness is quite engrossed in your cultivation."
Lin Hao's gaze swept over her, lingering a moment longer on her puffed-out cheeks and slightly taut soft armor. He clicked his tongue. "Hmm, full of energy. Looks like the environment in the inner region is really good for you. See? I wasn't lying to you, was I? The gems of Black Dragon Mountain are nowhere near as good as the sand here, aren't they?"
"Who told you to peek!"
Brolin felt her ears burning from his gaze, and with a raised chin, she maintained her princessly pride. "Hmph, do I care about these cultivation resources? I'm just... giving you face! Besides, don't you only have eyes for that silver-haired domain lord?"
[Within the Bond Space, Brolin's thoughts bubbled like boiling water: That scumbag, he finally came to find me! We haven't been in touch for so long, he's probably still cuddling with that silver-haired guy… The Inner Domain is great… but couldn't he at least praise my rapid progress?! Idiot, idiot, idiot!]
Lin Hao's smile widened; he had, of course, "heard" that insincere sentiment.
He strolled slowly forward until he was only an arm's length away from Brolin, where he could clearly see the trembling of her long eyelashes and the rise and fall of her breath.
"Tsk tsk, the sour smell is so strong, you can smell it from several kilometers away."
He deliberately leaned closer and sniffed, a mischievous look on his face. "My dear Ninth Princess, you are the first person I have ever actively wanted to fall in love with. Your status is special and unique."
Brolin's heart skipped a beat, and her cheeks flushed even more: "Who's dating you! Stop talking nonsense!"
She retorted verbally, but her body seemed rooted to the spot, and she didn't push him away as usual.
"Alright, alright, I'll pretend you're not."
Lin Hao's smile remained unchanged. Although Brolin's body was trembling slightly, her expression remained steadfast and unyielding.
Too lazy to waste words with her, he simply lowered his head and kissed her cherry lips.
The touch was icy and slightly cool, just like the smoothest and most bouncy jelly in the world, trembling delicately the moment it touched.
In an instant, Brolin's body tensed up like a bowstring.
Her mind went blank in an instant, and her limbs felt weak and powerless, until a pair of strong arms wrapped around her.
