This Is My Planet - Chapter 11
Xia Guixuan’s arrival was intentional, of course.
After the banner of ecological parks and potions was ruined by Yin Zhongxiang, Yin Ping could only directly bring up the matter of her ‘boyfriend.’ Since it had come to this point, how could Xia Guixuan possibly hide? It just wouldn’t make sense…
He didn’t like meddling in what he considered mundane matters, but that didn’t mean he wouldn’t occasionally intervene.
Hmm… ‘Darling’ was something he learned from that novel in the morning; even the tone was the same.
It had to be said that reading a dozen chapters of the novel had been particularly useful; he had almost instantly ‘modernized’ a lot.
Yin Ping, who was being called a ‘shrew,’ squeezed out a sentence from between her teeth, “Xiaoru, is this uncultured vagrant your boyfriend?”
Xia Guixuan chuckled, “Manners reflect upbringing, the manifestation of education. So, breaking into someone’s home, giving unwanted advice, engaging in feudal actions in the interstellar age—where’s the manners in that? Where’s the refinement?”
Yin Ping angrily retorted, “I am her second aunt. What do you mean by breaking into someone’s home!”
“Oh. The next thing you’ll say ‘Stay away from my niece, and I’ll give you five million’, right? Hand over the money,” Xia Guixuan extended his hand, “Cash only.”
“Pfft…” Yin Xiaoru snapped out of her daze, a smile forming in her eyes. Had this little demon suddenly become enlightened? Not only did he know how to say ‘Darling,’ but he also played these bad jokes. Was he just watching movies upstairs?
“Bold!” Yin Ping gestured, and immediately two men in black suits lunged forward, trying to teach this pretty boy a lesson.
Yin Xiaoru’s expression turned serious, immediately standing in front of Xia Guixuan. “This is my home. Second Aunt, you’ve resorted to violence here repeatedly, do you think this is your own playground?”
By the end, her tone turned severe, exuding a palpable threat.
Xia Guixuan silently watched her slender figure standing in front of him, the energy in his hand quietly dissipated.
He didn’t come down here to show off.
Honestly, he had intended to kill.
He was somewhat tired of this bickering family dispute because it was neither interesting nor was it the kind of thing he wished to observe in a civilization.
It wasn’t even as interesting as playing with the butler as the system.
Handling such uninteresting matters in the most intimidating way was the simplest, especially when the power difference was as vast as the heavens and the earth. There wasn’t much to strategize about.
But going down to kill someone seemed a bit unreasonable, and the little fox probably wouldn’t want to see something like that. So, intentionally saying things to provoke the other side, if they struck first, then retaliating wouldn’t be unjustified.
But with Yin Xiaoru protecting him like this…
Looking at her back, that sense of killing intent couldn’t truly gather, and there was a bit of complexity in his heart.
Seeing that Yin Xiaoru was genuinely angry, Yin Ping didn’t dare completely fall out with her. She hurriedly gestured to stop her subordinates and slowly said, “Just now, I wanted your boyfriend to come down and meet us to see what kind of person he is. I already know he lacks manners, as for his abilities…”
She paused, a hint of mockery showing, “Do you think he can help Sangyu Company?”
Honestly, Yin Xiaoru herself didn’t think so… She knew Xia Guixuan was a medical genius ‘descendant,’ but alchemy and biotechnology were indeed different systems, especially for military use. Personal alchemy couldn’t be scaled up into mass production, making it essentially meaningless.
However, since it’s come to this, Yin Xiaoru naturally had to stand firm, stubbornly saying, “Whether he can help or not, we’ll know later. Why, just because he’s good-looking, does that mean he can’t be capable?”
Yin Ping chuckled, “I know he is quite capable in certain aspects. Anyway, it’s useless to delay tactics by procrastination. If the samples for the military next month don’t pass, will he compensate with his head?”
Yin Xiaoru directly countered, “Why? If another young master from a different family were in his place, would he have to pay with his head if the medicine doesn’t pass? Is Second Aunt trying to develop the branch company or trying to finish people off?”
“… it’s indeed possible to compensate with one’s head.” Xia Guixuan finally spoke, ”If the potion passes, will this lady also bet her head? If so, I have no objections.”
Since killing wasn’t an option, might as well change the perspective. It wasn’t a big deal.
Yin Xiaoru: “…”
Could you stop pretending? Can’t you just honestly stay in the background?
Yin Ping was about to say something when suddenly, a female voice from outside said, “If you can develop the medicine needed by the military, no one dares touch a hair on you; they’d be enemies of the military. If it fails, get away from Xiaoru. Live or die, it’s your responsibility.”
As the voice trailed off, it seemed like flames streaked across the sky, burning through the clouds.
A blaze descended from afar into the courtyard.
The flames transformed into an elegant female form, slowly standing upright.
Fiery red hair, crimson eyes, even her clothes seemed like an illusion of burning flames. Her devilish weapons seemed ready to burst through her blood-red battle attire, fiery and vibrant, with a pair of toned and slender legs exuding explosive power.
At first glance, Xia Guixuan saw the fierceness hidden in her eyes and the faintly discernible Divine Flame’s appearance. The terrifyingly flames, as unrestrained and free-spirited as fire itself.
Xia Guixuan, who had no interest in family conflicts, actually brightened his eyes this time. This was truly an interesting way of cultivation, almost like Zhurong…

The woman strode into the room, and the formerly arrogant Yin Ping’s face changed. She reluctantly greeted, “General Yan.”
However, the woman completely ignored Yin Ping, her scrutinizing gaze sweeping over Xia Guixuan’s face, focusing on his eyes. “Do you dare accept?”
Yin Xiaoru: “Wait, Sister Yan…”
Xia Guixuan: ”Of course.”
The woman nodded, ”Good, then it’s settled.”
Yin Xiaoru: “…”
On the other side, Yin Ping coldly stated, “Yan Wuyue, this is our Yin family matter, and you…”
”This is a matter of the military division!” Yan Wuyue’s voice was severe. ”The Yin family is just a supplier. Who gave you the authority to use military needs as a reason for your family’s internal disputes?”
”You…” Yin Ping was both angered and fearful but ultimately didn’t dare provoke Yan Wuyue.
Yan Wuyue wasn’t an ordinary person; she was the commander of the Special Operations Division directly under the military, the head of a special forces team during wartime, and the captain of special operations during peacetime. She was one of the real influential figures in the military.
After holding back for a while, Yin Ping still found an excuse, saying, ”If Xiaoru purchases a medicine from outside later, will that also count against this man? Research personnel require qualification certification, and this man’s qualifications…”
”Nonsense!”
Smack!
With a swift motion, Yan Wuyue slapped Yin Ping across the face, sending her spinning and crashing heavily against the door.
A group of men in black suits instinctively moved to intervene, but with a single glance from Yan Wuyue, they all backed off.
Yan Wuyue coldly stated, ”If the military can obtain the required potions externally, we will acknowledge it, no matter its source. This is a matter of our military; where do you get the right to meddle?”
Yin Ping, sitting outside while holding her face, struggled to sit upright, ”Yan Wuyue, are you really going against our Yin family…”
”Is the surname Yin so remarkable? The person I, Yan Wuyue, protect, and you dare to cause trouble repeatedly. Do you think my Special Operations Division doesn’t dare to kill?” Yan Wuyue sneered, pointing at the bat-person in the corner, ”This bio-enhancer, I’m taking with me. As for you, scram!”
Xia Guixuan tilted his head, feeling a bit speechless.
He came downstairs to beat someone, didn’t even make a move, and this woman completely stole the show.
What was the point of coming downstairs in these cute pajamas….
However, after this incident, one thing became clear to him.
The confrontation between Yin Xiaoru and the bat-person in the alley last night, he initially thought it was just urban shadow battles, something that wouldn’t happen regularly. But now, it seemed otherwise…
This planet wasn’t a very orderly or civilized one; fundamentally, it seemed to belong to a world of strength based hierarchy. From Yin Ping’s readiness to resort to violence and Yan Wuyue’s ability to strike people as if they were nothing, it was clear that it was a world where actions followed words.
Even a casual guard wasn’t an ordinary martial artist; they were all genetic warriors.
Humanity clearly has its own system of martial strength, not just relying on firearms. Daily combat is probably a regular occurrence.
It might be related to the war against the divine descendants or the extraterrestrials from outer space. Human technological advancement probably focused mainly on warfare and individual enhancement.
Yin Xiaoru’s company’s biotechnology, which he initially found uninteresting, now appeared to be an important part of the human cultivation system.
Maybe… it’s better not to leave in the short term, and instead explore this further?
Unexpectedly, meeting a random little fox in the coffee shop turned out to be such a crucial thread, linking human identity with genetic biotechnology, the cultivation of divine descendants, and her own karmic destiny… It seemed like observing her could unveil everything in this world.
She also casually brought the Divine Creator back home.
Xia Guixuan knew what this was called.
In terms of a story, this was the protagonist.
In the context of cultivation, this was a person around whom destiny revolved.
