Chapter 273: The Baby Sitter
The father looked at her, clearly unconvinced. "Yes, protective to the point of almost… well, excessive." He sighed, running a hand through his hair.
"You remember last time she 'helped' him? The entire city was nearly leveled just because someone wanted to fight against the Chamber of Commerce, so they decided to kidnap our son.
And in the end, the whole incident caused the whole world to be in fear for years while the 'top cultivators' of this planet tried to find the mastermind behind it, but they never did."
The mother laughed, waving a dismissive hand. "Oh, she was just being thorough! It's not her fault she's a bit… enthusiastic."
"A bit?" The father gave her a pointed look. "She's like a walking storm when it comes to protecting him. She once even planned to replace the World's Will so that she could make the new World's Will to help our son unconditionally.
Good thing we were there, or else we would have been getting angry messages from he Supreme Will as it stabs our figurines."
As he said this, somewhere far away, in a white space filled with unknown objects, an illusionary figure sat behind a dark desk signing documents that appeared and disappeared without causing any fluctuations.
But suddenly, the illusionary figure stopped what it was doing and then shivered; then he held its shoulders as it looked around the room, trying to find what had made it react like this.
Back to the subspace near Nexara.
The mother, who had heard her husband rant, just smiled, clearly entertained. "Well, that's part of her charm, isn't it? Anyway, she'll do just fine. You're too hard on her, you know."
Just then, a gentle shift in the space around a small area made the parents look toward the location as a new figure stepped into view.
She stepped into the subspace full of confidence and charm, each step smooth and controlled as though she controlled the very space around her that would help her move in a synchronized way.
Her long, dark hair flowed down her back, soft and shining, framing a face almost identical to Xu Qianghua's mother.
But unlike her sister's warm gaze, this woman's eyes had a sharp, playful spark that seemed to pull you in.

Her features were stunning, with high cheekbones, supple lips that curved into a small smile, and eyes that seemed to suck anything that came into view.
Her body was curvy, with a perfect hourglass shape, and she wore a sleek, fitted gown that hugged her figure just right. It showed off her narrow waist and the graceful way her hips moved as she walked.
Her chest was full, her posture relaxed yet powerful, and every move she made was smooth and natural as if she knew exactly how to draw attention without even trying.
Something about her made you want to keep watching—a quiet strength mixed with a charm that felt almost magnetic. She looked at her sister and brother-in-law with a smirk, her gaze calm but full of mischief.
"Oh, speaking of the devil," Xu Qianghua's mother said brightly, flashing her twin sister a grin. "Right on time, Sister!"
The twin sister's gaze flicked between them, a slight smirk curving her lips. "Well, of course, my dear sister.
You know I'd never miss a chance to lend a hand," she replied, her voice full of charm and seduction, which can even charm a succubus.
She turned her attention to the father, giving him a sweet smile. "Worry not, dear brother-in-law. I'll keep things subtle."
He raised an eyebrow, clearly skeptical. "Subtle?" he repeated as he was hearing things.
"Sorry, but the subtle for you might not be subtle for us." As soon as he said this, his wife teleported next to him and pinched his waist, which made him groan in pain.
Her smirk widened. "Oh, come now. I can be discreet," she said, a hint of mischief in her tone. "Besides, he'll never even know I'm there… unless he needs me."
The father sighed, though a faint smile tugged at his lips. "Alright, but please, try to let him handle things on his own. He's grown a lot, and he doesn't need interference."
She looked at him, eyes gleaming with her usual playful defiance. "Interference? I would never dream of it."
Her expression softened slightly, though, and she added in a softer tone, "But if anyone thinks of stepping out of line, they'll have me to deal with."
Xu Qianghua's mother chuckled, clearly amused. "See? She's the perfect choice. With her around, I'm not worried in the least."
The father finally sighed, giving up. "I suppose there's no point in arguing, then. Just… try to keep any damage to a minimum?"
The twin sister just laughed as she said, "Oh, worry, it's not like he will need my help now, but I will make sure not to ruin the overall plan," she promised, though her sly smile suggested otherwise.
Xu Qianghua's mother, who saw the smile, just glared at her sister as she gave a silent warning before she made her way towards the portal opened by her, which led to the Eternal Abyss.
"Now that we've sorted everything out let's go see about this Chaos Panther. It's been waiting long enough."
The father followed her lead, though he gave his sister-in-law a final, wary look. "Thank you for stepping in. Just… remember, Qianghua's grown, and he's strong enough to handle things himself."
She gave him a mock salute, her expression amused. "Consider it done. I'll be right there, in the subspace," she replied smoothly, as though it was the simplest promise in the world.
Satisfied, Xu Qianghua's mother cast a fond smile toward her sister. "I trust you'll keep him safe. After all, it's your nephew we are talking about."
