Quick Wear: Love still depends on two love brains
Chapter 374: The Useless Lady vs. the Federal General 27
When the starship piloted by Quan Jiuxi landed on the helipad of the Quan family mansion on the main star, the setting sun was dyeing the entire manor into a warm golden red.
As soon as she pushed open the cabin door, she saw the courtyard full of people, from old men with white hair and beards to children who had just learned to walk. Almost the entire family was out, with their necks stretched out, their eyes filled with curiosity and excitement.
"The lady is finally back!"
The butler, Uncle Fu, was the first to come forward, holding a spare cloak in his hand.
"The power you displayed on the star track that day spread throughout the entire main star!"
Tang Wan and Father Quan also came forward, with rare smiles on their faces and worry in their eyes.
"Xiao Xi, you did a great job." Tang Wan said.
"Yes, yes," the second aunt came forward with an eager smile on her face.
"Is that giant golden-red bird the legendary phoenix? I've seen illustrations of it in ancient books, and it's exactly the same as the one you summoned that day!"
"And the power to tear apart space is even more powerful than an interstellar cannon!"
Quan Jiuxi was surrounded by people and walked into the living room. His eyes swept across the expectant faces and suddenly he felt playful.
She sat down on the sofa, crossed her legs, and casually adjusted her sleeves: "My shoulders are a little sore."
As soon as he finished speaking, a little girl with two ponytails rushed over like a cannonball. It was Quan Mengmeng, the youngest daughter of the third room.
She ran behind Quan Jiuxi, put her little hand gently on her shoulder, raised her blushing face and asked:
"Cousin, please tell me, is it a phoenix? I saw it in a holographic projection the other day, and its feathers shone like the sun. It was so beautiful!"
Quan Jiuxi enjoyed the little girl's massage with moderate strength, and a sly curve appeared at the corner of his lips.
She did not answer directly, but looked at the sunset on the horizon through the floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room.
"What do you think?" she asked softly, a hint of amusement flashing in her phoenix eyes.
Some secrets are better kept in the heart and told at the right time.
Quan Mengmeng was stunned by the question, then nodded vigorously: "It must be Fenghuang! My cousin is the most powerful!"
A sound of good-natured laughter rang out in the living room. Quan Jiuxi leaned back on the sofa, listening to the noisy family conversation in his ears, and his tense nerves gradually relaxed.
Perhaps Gui Lan was right, she really should learn to feel the worldly atmosphere of these three thousand worlds.
However, no matter how warm the fireworks are, they cannot compare to that person’s words “Ajiu”.
She quietly clenched the Qiankun Ding hidden in her sleeve. The coolness of the Ding body came through the fabric, like a silent promise.
wait for me.
We will meet soon.
When the laughter in the living room gradually died down, Quan Jiuxi suddenly sat up straight.
His eyes slowly swept over everyone present - the eagerness on Second Aunt's face had not yet faded, Quan Mengmeng was swinging around her arm, and there were also several uncles and relatives, their eyes more or less filled with curiosity about "Phoenix" and hidden worries about the future of the family.
"Since everyone is here," she began, her voice no longer lazy but rather steady and unquestionable, "I have something to announce."
The noisy living room suddenly became quiet.
Quan Jiuxi stood up and walked to the open space in the middle. With a flick of his fingertips, the ball of light in his sleeve floated in the air.
The spiritual energy flowing through his body overflowed like a trickle, making everyone present feel inexplicably comfortable.
"This is the Spirit Awakening Pearl," she pointed her finger at the floating object, and a pale blue halo suddenly emanated from her body. "It can help mortals open their spiritual roots and temper their mental strength. From today on, everyone in the Quan family, regardless of age, must practice with me."
"Awakening spiritual roots?" Second Aunt was the first to exclaim, nearly dropping the teacup in her hand. "Jiuxi, are you saying... like in the ancient books, that one can draw the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into the body?"
Quan Jiuxi nodded. "More than that. After the spiritual roots are opened, the mental power will increase exponentially, which will be beneficial for controlling mechas, analyzing star maps, and even daily holographic calculations. I will take the Quan family to participate in the Interstellar Mecha League in three days."
As soon as these words came out, the living room exploded. Although the Quan family was considered an interstellar mecha family, they only researched mechas and their combat capabilities were somewhat limited.
The spiritual power of the clan members generally hovers around B-level, and the highest is only Quan Feng from the eldest son, who barely touches the edge of A-level. This is also the root cause of their repeated setbacks in mecha competitions.
Opening up spiritual roots and improving spiritual strength? This is simply a fantasy.
"Xiao Xi, this... is this reliable?" Father Quan pushed his glasses up, his tone full of hesitation. "The Interstellar Alliance has long concluded that mental strength is innate. How can it be improved later?"
"What the alliance concludes may not be the truth." Quan Jiuxi raised her hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and the Spiritual Awakening Pearl slowly rotated in her palm.
"Tomorrow, everyone will gather at the training ground in the back mountain. I will use the Spirit Enlightenment Pearl to guide the Qi into your bodies. Whether you can seize the opportunity depends on you."
She paused and her eyes fell on Quan Feng.
This cousin is currently the strongest in the Quan family, but he always loses to other children from aristocratic families in mecha simulation competitions due to his mental bottleneck.
"Cousin, do you think you can break into the top 100 in the league with your current mental strength?"
Quan Feng's face flushed instantly and he clenched his fists: "I..."
"Last year, you were eliminated by Tang Mingyuan of the Tang family in the round of 32," Quan Jiuxi said in a low voice, but every word was clear. "His mental strength was 0.3 units higher than yours, and he was 0.7 seconds faster than you in controlling the mecha. That 0.7 seconds is the difference between you two."
Quan Feng lowered his head, and the atmosphere in the living room became somewhat solemn. Quan Jiuxi suddenly smiled, "But from now on, this gap can be closed. We can even make it impossible for others to catch up."
The halo of Qi Lingyu suddenly became stronger, and the light blue spiritual energy flowed over everyone's ankles like a tide.
Quan Mengmeng was the first to exclaim: "Wow! I feel so comfortable! It's like I'm soaking in a cloud!"
The others also showed surprised expressions - their tense nerves relaxed in the spiritual energy, and the fatigue from dealing with family affairs in recent days dissipated for the most part.
Father Quan pushed his glasses and looked at his slightly trembling fingers. There seemed to be a warm current flowing there, a feeling he had never experienced before.
The halo of the Qi Ling Pearl circulated in the living room for half a cup of tea before Quan Jiuxi raised his hand to take back the spiritual energy.
She looked at the expressions on everyone's faces that changed from suspicion to shock, and knew that the matter was almost done.
"Tomorrow at five o'clock, at the training ground in the back mountain, no delay." She put away the Spirit Awakening Pearl, her tone full of authority that brooked no argument, "Everyone should go to bed early tonight and stay mentally clear."
When everyone dispersed, their steps seemed a little light and ethereal, as if they were walking on clouds.
Father Quan walked at the end, looked at his daughter's tall and straight back, opened his mouth to say something, but in the end all he said was a long sigh.
He has been researching mechas for thirty years and knows better than anyone how difficult it is to break through the bottleneck of mental strength - Quan Feng has been stuck on the edge of A-level for three years, and the resources invested by the family can be piled up into a small mountain, but he can't even achieve a 0.1 unit increase.
But just now, when that spiritual energy permeated his limbs and bones, he clearly felt something loosening deep in his brain, as if a rusty gear was suddenly injected with lubricating oil.
"Xiao Xi," he finally said, "Are you really sure about this?"
Quan Jiuxi turned around, the moonlight outside the window reflected in his eyes: "Please trust me once."
