Su Shiyue felt her intelligence was not enough to handle the situation. She had spent so much effort and resources to find Qin Peng, but who would have thought that Qin Peng would casually say a sentence to her.

"I'm at home!"

"Are you kidding me!"

Su Shiyue couldn't help but want to roar loudly. Just then, Qin Peng's message came again: "There are some things I can't tell you for now. I just got home and am very tired. I won't contact you for now. Come over first, and contact me again in half an hour!"

Su Shiyue took a deep breath, but she also understood that Qin Peng was not the type to make empty promises. No matter what, it was good that he was still alive.

"Alright, I know, I'll come over right away!" After saying this, Su Shiyue calmed down and looked at Guo Hao, "Alright, Guo Hao, I've found Qin Peng's whereabouts. Let's go!"

"What, you found him?" Guo Hao couldn't help but be slightly stunned and shouted at Su Shiyue, "Where is he now?"

Su Shiyue smiled and slowly said, "Let's go and talk about it!" As she said this, her gaze fell on the staff, and she continued, "You continue searching here. I have something to do, so I'll leave first!"

The staff looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Su Shiyue, in a hurry, pulled Guo Hao into her private aircraft.

*****

Qin Peng had indeed just returned home. What made him slightly relieved was that Guo Hao had informed Su Shiyue immediately but had not disturbed his parents. In fact, even if his parents knew he had been captured by the Wang family, they would have been powerless to do anything.

Informing Su Shiyue was the most effective method.

Upon returning home, Qin Peng felt dizzy and weak. The transformation into a deity had affected him, with his brain receiving too much information, causing him to feel mentally exhausted.

He went directly to the secret room.

Qin Peng stretched out his hands, forming a strange seal with his fingers. He began to breathe in a peculiar rhythm, inhaling and exhaling. This was an extremely magical breathing technique that could transform blood and qi into divine essence to replenish his mental energy.

However, this breathing technique was best performed with true qi. Using internal strength was much less effective.

Qin Peng entered a meditative state, his entire body becoming empty and clear. His internal strength circulated naturally, gradually merging into his brain.

After half an hour, Qin Peng naturally opened his eyes.

Immediately, Qin Peng felt much better. The fatigue didn't completely disappear, but his energy had recovered significantly, no longer feeling exhausted.

A voice came from the optical brain: "Qin Peng, where are you now? I'm almost at your house!"

"I know, I'll have someone bring you in!" Qin Peng replied in the optical brain, then touched his temples and instructed his subordinates, "Miss Su has arrived. Greet them immediately and take them to the living room!"

"Yes, Young Master Qin Peng!" A servant's voice came from the optical brain.

Qin Peng then took a deep breath, stood up, and slowly walked to the living room. In less than two minutes, Su Shiyue appeared in front of him in a hurry.

"Shiyue!" Qin Peng smiled at Su Shiyue.

Su Shiyue's face showed tension, and then, without regard for the people around her, she directly threw herself into Qin Peng's arms, "Qin Peng, is it really you? You're okay? That's great!"

Caught off guard by Su Shiyue's sudden embrace, Qin Peng's heart rippled with emotion and a sense of warmth. It turned out that this woman cared so much about him.

"Bad guy, big bad guy, why didn't you contact me? Do you know how worried I was?" Su Shiyue said, her voice filled with委屈 (grievance): "You came back so calmly. Do you know how scared I was? Do you have any place for me in your heart?"

"Alright, I'm fine now, don't worry about me!" Qin Peng gently stroked Su Shiyue's hair and smiled, "Look, I'm fine now. I wanted to inform you, but some things can't be said just like that!"

"What exactly happened?" Su Shiyue looked up at Qin Peng, her expression serious, "What happened with the Wang family? Why are you safe? Who saved you?"

Qin Peng smiled, his gaze sweeping over the servant, and he said calmly, "You can go now!"

"Yes!" The servant knew that Qin Peng was about to reveal some confidential information and did not linger in the living room but retreated obediently.

Qin Peng retracted his gaze and looked at Su Shiyue. Su Shiyue suddenly realized that they were in such an intimate embrace, her face flushed red, and she quickly let go of Qin Peng, stammering, "Qin Peng, you, you don't misunderstand, I just, I just..."

Qin Peng laughed and, somewhat forcefully, pulled Su Shiyue into his arms, "Just what?"

Su Shiyue's face turned even redder, and she looked at Qin Peng coquettishly, "You, you let me go first, someone is watching, this, this is not good, not good!"

Qin Peng smiled and gently let go of Su Shiyue, his gaze falling on Guo Hao, and he said with a smile, "Sit down! I'll tell you everything!"

After they sat down, their gazes fell on Qin Peng.

Qin Peng took a deep breath and slowly said, "I'll start from the beginning. Actually, I knew long ago that the Wang family was going to target me. I knew their entire plan, and the reason I chose to fall for their trap was simple: to eliminate the Wang family in one go!"

Qin Peng's first sentence stunned both of them, and Guo Hao looked at him in disbelief, "You, you knew long ago?"

"Exactly, I knew long ago!" Qin Peng smiled and continued, "I just went along with their plan!"

At this point, Qin Peng paused, his gaze falling on Su Shiyue, and he smiled, "Shiyue, do you remember? The first time you saw me, you said I was purging impurities from my body, right?"

Su Shiyue was slightly stunned, recalling their first meeting. Although they had seen each other on campus before, at that time, Qin Peng was just an ordinary student, and Su Shiyue had not paid much attention to him. The first time she found Qin Peng interesting was when he obtained the essence of the Celestial Martial God, which gave him a unique aura.

"Are you very curious about what I encountered?" Qin Peng smiled at Su Shiyue, "Did I eat some rare treasure or receive the favor of some expert?"

Su Shiyue nodded slightly, and Qin Peng smiled, "To be honest, I received the favor of an unparalleled expert. This story is a bit cliché, but he saw my talent and potential and decided to take me as his disciple!"

"Is that so?" Su Shiyue did not have much doubt, as Qin Peng's talent was truly outstanding, and calling him a genius would be an understatement.

So, Qin Peng shrugged and said, "My master discovered the Wang family's plot against me and told me everything. Then, when the Wang family and Wang Qi appeared, he eliminated them with one slap!"

Su Shiyue was stunned and looked at Qin Peng, "It was that simple?"

"It was that simple!" Qin Peng shrugged and continued, "Otherwise, how could I have left so easily? You don't think I blew up that spacecraft, do you?"

"But who is your master?" Su Shiyue suddenly asked, "He can't be nameless, right? Who is he?"

"Well, I really don't know his name!" Qin Peng shrugged, somewhat helplessly, "During this time, he only guided my cultivation and never mentioned his name. He said I would only be qualified to know his name after breaking through to the True Dao. As for now, I really don't know. I can only hope to break through to the True Dao as soon as possible to find out his name!"

Qin Peng's performance was impeccable, every expression was calm and composed, as if everything was going well. His acting was flawless.

It wasn't that Qin Peng intended to deceive Su Shiyue and Guo Hao, but he had to keep it a secret. The more people who knew, the faster he would die. Moreover...

Qin Peng sneered inwardly, the biological optical brain in his mind showing a dense network of eavesdropping devices.

He needed to create a fictional unparalleled expert to protect himself. This way, others would think twice before moving against him. Wang Qi was killed with one slap, and Wang Zhun would be his messenger. This would give him peace of mind, without constantly worrying about the Wang family's revenge.

Su Shiyue and Guo Hao had no other suspicions. Qin Peng's sudden power was already enough to make them suspicious, but now, with a 'reasonable' explanation, they no longer doubted and were genuinely happy for Qin Peng.

Having such a powerful expert protecting Qin Peng in secret was indeed a good thing for him.
