Shen Shenxing patted Shen Yunxi on the shoulder, his expression firm: "Yunxi, it's a blessing for the Shen family to have a genius like you." He stood up and then called to Shen Ruoyu, "Let's go, Yubao, Ningbao. Let's go and put those things away."

They walked to the betting table, where a mountain of spirit stones gleamed under the light. Shen Shenxing pocketed the spirit stones without hesitation.

The rest of the Shen family members all showed expressions of heartache, and even the usually composed elders showed reluctance, as if each spirit stone was stabbed into their hearts.

Suddenly, a young disciple of the Shen family couldn't help but speak up: "Patriarch, could you leave me some? That's the money I've saved up for half my life to get married! Without these spirit stones, how am I going to find a wife in the future!"

His words were like a clarion call, instantly resonating with everyone.

Another disciple chimed in with a worried look, "Yes, yes, Patriarch, we're all still single! We haven't found wives yet! Without spirit stones, I can't even afford the betrothal gifts. At this rate, when will we ever be able to marry the girls we like?"

Seeing everyone's complaints, it seemed that the future of the Shen family was frozen on the problem of marriage. Shen Shenxing couldn't help but laugh heartily and said in a very good mood, "Who told you all to look down on my precious granddaughter and my lovely great-grandson before? Now it's too late to regret it! Feeling like you've lost out? You understand this principle!"

His words were humorous yet powerful, like a playful jab at the younger members of the family, but also brimming with pride and affection for Shen Yunxi.

"Regret it now, don't you!" His last sentence was more like a subtle mockery of their past attitude. "You were really short-sighted back then. Now you want to turn back and catch up, but it's probably too late!"

"Yu Bao, you won this yourself, don't give it away to others so easily." Shen Shenxing patted Shen Ruoyu on the shoulder and said earnestly.

"That's right, I need to save them to support my mother, my sister, and my wife in the future." Shen Ruoyu solemnly put the spirit stones into his storage bag and hid them carefully, as if afraid that someone would steal them.

"Hahaha!" Shen Shenxing laughed heartily, "A promising young man! A promising young man!"

"Alright, Grandpa, you're still not fully recovered, don't get too excited!" Shen Yunxi said with concern. "Yu Bao, Ning Bao, Mommy has a task for you. For the next few days, you two should stay with your great-grandfather, keep an eye on him, and make sure he gets some rest."

"Okay, Mother, we promise to complete the mission." The two little ones led Shen Shenxing towards the main courtyard.

After they had gone some distance, Shen Yunxi returned to her own courtyard and then asked Lan Yu to keep an eye on Shen Yanting and Qin Suxin, and to inform her immediately if there was any unusual activity.

Shen Yunxi walked into the study alone, where Di Xuanshang was already quietly waiting. "Speak, about the matters concerning the Divine Continent."

Shen Yunxi got straight to the point, her eyes revealing a hint of urgency.

Di Xuanshang frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and slowly spoke: "I don't remember very clearly. I only remember that the Divine Continent was once a place where the strong were respected. There was a mysterious power inherited from ancient times, which was especially important to summoners..."

Shen Yunxi listened intently, while simultaneously flipping through the ancestral secret manual in her hands, trying to find clues about the Divine Continent. Unexpectedly, when she noticed the secrets hidden between the ancient pages, she had a premonition that she was about to uncover a major conspiracy.
