"How could I forget such an important matter? I'm just a kid; even if I say some strange things or pretend to know nothing, no one can do anything to me!"

Thinking of this, Dongfang Xiuzhe felt relieved and, for the first time, thought being a kid wasn't so bad after all.

When it was time to eat, Dongfang Xiuzhe originally thought his parents would ask him some questions at the dinner table, but to his surprise, they didn't ask anything at all!

Could it be that Mr. Lin Yaizi didn't tell his parents anything?

While eating, Dongfang Xiuzhe pondered, feeling this was unlikely. He could clearly see from his parents' eyes that they knew something was going on.

What he couldn't understand was why his parents could remain so calm. Did they have no curiosity about their son at all?

It seemed the prepared excuses wouldn't be needed.

"Fine, not asking is better for me!"

Dongfang Xiuzhe also pretended nothing had happened and quickly finished his meal.

In fact, what Dongfang Xiuzhe didn't know was that his parents didn't ask anything because they followed Lin Yaizi's advice, believing that overly questioning such a rare genius might have some negative effects.

Additionally, Lin Yaizi said, "It's best if as few people as possible know about the young master's extraordinary talent, to avoid jealousy and harm from those with ill intentions."

Therefore, Dongfang Xiuzhe would continue to study with Lin Yaizi, but the content was no longer reading and writing.

Listening to Lin Yaizi's vivid descriptions of Tianbo City's geography, customs, and events, Dongfang Xiuzhe was captivated. This knowledge was exactly what he needed to understand.

Although he had been in this world for three years, it was still a strange place to Dongfang Xiuzhe. Lin Yaizi's explanations filled the gaps in his understanding of this world.

"Who would have thought that people in this world are divided by class and status, and even slaves can be legally bought and sold."

What surprised Dongfang Xiuzhe even more was that some slaves were worth less than livestock!

He secretly thought about when he could visit a "slave market" to see how people were sold in this world.

Although he was very curious, Dongfang Xiuzhe didn't show it on his face.

He could sense that although Lin Yaizi seemed no different from before, his sharp gaze often fell on him.

"This Lin Yaizi is not simple, at least not as simple as he appears!"

Dongfang Xiuzhe thought, and he was also curious why someone as knowledgeable and reserved as Lin Yaizi would be content to be just a strategist.

"Looks like I need to pay more attention to this person in the future!"

Lin Yaizi could never have imagined that while he was trying to uncover Dongfang Xiuzhe's secrets, Dongfang Xiuzhe was also investigating him.

For the past two days, Lin Yaizi had been troubled: "The young master is only three years old, but why do I feel like I can't see through him?"

Three days passed peacefully, and under Lin Yaizi's guidance, Dongfang Xiuzhe gained a new understanding of this world.

He became extremely interested in it.

"Who would have thought that, besides humans, this world has strange races like the 'Elven Race,' 'Dwarf Race,' and 'Beast Race,' and each race has its own unique skills!"

"Beasts are divided into 'Illusion Beasts' and 'Magic Beasts.' Illusion Beasts excel in close combat and can burst with fighting spirit; Magic Beasts excel in long-range attacks and can cast spells."

Dongfang Xiuzhe was now curious how these beasts that could burst with fighting spirit and cast spells compared to the demons he had subdued in his previous life.

Looking up at the blue sky and white clouds, his mind was filled with imagination. When would he venture out into the world?

Not only could he gain knowledge, but it would also help his cultivation!

However, he was only three years old. Although he had some self-defense capabilities, his parents would never agree to him going out on his own!

Even in ten years, they might not agree!

How could he convince his parents?

Although with his current strength, he could sneak out, he didn't want to do that. He didn't want to see his parents worried and sad, especially after the "Thief King" incident in his childhood, he felt he couldn't make his parents worry anymore!

Even if he were to venture out alone in the future, Dongfang Xiuzhe hoped it would be with his parents' knowledge.

"With my current strength, if I encounter an enemy as strong as my father, I might not lose, but winning wouldn't be easy."

He must have absolute strength to convince his parents to let him go out for training!

Moreover, Lin Yaizi had often described the outside world as full of dangers and traps, and the enemies he might face could be more than one, even stronger than his father!

Additionally, powerful beasts could be even more terrifying than strong humans!

A gentle breeze blew, and his hair moved, revealing a clear and refined face with eyes that sparkled with vitality.

Dongfang Xiuzhe asked himself, "Is my current strength enough to handle unknown dangers?"

The answer was no!

He was still too young and needed to become stronger!

He must use every means and condition to make himself stronger, learning as much as he could. More skills never hurt.

In a world where people can be freely bought and sold, only strength is the most fundamental and direct!

"Right, this is a world for the strong!" Dongfang Xiuzhe stood up, his face showing a determined expression.

"Looks like I need to open the 'Yin-Yang Eye' earlier!" he muttered to himself.

Originally, he thought his current spiritual energy wasn't strong enough, and he planned to delay this important cultivation for a few more years, but after hearing Lin Yaizi's descriptions of the outside world, he couldn't wait any longer!

"I'll ask Mother to take me out of the manor later, I need to prepare some things again."

"Right, I should also visit the 'Illusion Beast Market.' Lin Yaizi said it's a place that sells various tamed illusion beasts. If I can find a satisfactory pet, it will also boost my overall strength!"

After making his decision, Dongfang Xiuzhe walked towards his mother's courtyard.
