The next day

A large crowd has gathered everywhere in every city of China as people waited for the opening of the shops that have been officially designated as distributors of the TinyPxu figures. Everyone has an excited look on their faces. And the online and mass media erupted in clamor at this spectacle.

The people were really anticipating this turn of an event, especially after the release of the ads featuring Baby Lin Hao as the model along with her beautiful and sexy TinyPixu.

When the people saw on TV the function of the figure, they were all amazed. And the price is not that steep, hence everyone immediately wanted to buy one.

While this is happening, Shin Jiao is already talking with Mary and the group from the Omega squad who arrive in City H for their plans to enter the portal. The US government and its allies have been in and out of the portal and have gathered many valuable resources and new materials to study. But, unlike the powerful people of the kingdom of Bail, they are unable to go out of the safe zone of the portal in which Shin Jiao has set.

So they wanted to collaborate with Shin Jiao so that they can explore further.

As the portal is in the US territory, Shin Jiao has no problem with their request. He just wanted to make sure of something.

"We will leave in a week, so hopefully everyone would be prepared for the trip." Shin Jiao said as the meeting ended.

"Wait, can we really not take any research personnel or something? I mean it would be a waste if we just…" Magenta tried to add.

Magenta has become one of the captains of the Omega Squad and would also enter the portal along with Captain James Crugger and three others.

Shin Jiao shook his head.

"We are not there to escort someone as they do their research. My goal is to establish a communication with the nearest establishment and create a gate from the portal to the outskirts of the city. That way we would not be compromised…" Shin Jiao explained.

"Plus my trip in that place is for personal matter…" he said to himself.

After the meeting, everyone left while Shin Jiao and Susan Tang were left alone in the large conference room.

He is checking everything before he would leave. He wanted to make sure that those people eyeing the company would not have their chance.

Meanwhile, Susan just stayed beside him while watching his changing expressions.

"Are you worried about something?" she asked as she held his hands.

"Hmm?" Shin Jiao unconsciously asked.

"Are you worried about something?" she repeated.

"Yes… I\'m worried that once we leave our enemies would strike… I don\'t want anything to happen to the people we care about, and also to this company… Well, the company would be fine, but the employees…" he said while sighing.

"Hey, don\'t worry too much. I think everything will work out fine." Susan said while caressing Shin Jiao\'s handsome face.

"Yeah, I guess so." He said as he turns his gaze towards her.

As their eyes locked, they both showed gentle smiles on their faces.

The two enters their rooms and began stripping their clothes. Shin Jiao gently laid the beautiful woman he loved on the bed as he gazes at her fascinating figure and beauty. He realized that not only is Susan Tang beautiful on the outside she is also beautiful inside.

He might have loved some women before, but she is different. No condition, no guile, no hidden secrets, and no power struggles. She is intelligent, independent, wise, and gentle. Plus she loved him without condition.

As he slowly kissed while caressing her soft and gentle body, Shin Jiao felt his life in complete bliss.

It didn\'t take long before the room was filled with their moans and groans and they made love till the break of dawn.

…

A week have passed

Everything was prepared and Susan left her work to Marie who gladly accepts it and promises to take good care of the company. Shin Jiao also left his work to Park Jiyong, Shi Anne Li, and the tiny Duan Ying. Before leaving, they decided to hold a grand dinner party at home where all of their friends came.

Shin Jiao invited, those people he had met and helped him before.

And soon, one by one their friends arrived.

Genie Yu who was Shin Jiao\'s military senior instructor arrived at the company first along with old man Du, who is Shin Jiao\'s commanding general when he was in the army. Then the young master of the Hui clan Jun Hui and his grandfather Bai Hui along with their bodyguard Green viper, and then the Tang family members arrived. Not long later, Park Jiyong\'s parents arrived, Park Han-bo his father, and Tang Deling his mother.

Baby Lin Hao, Magenta, and two other mutants also attended the party.

The people meeting in the party were amazed at the connection of the company to the military and some of the powerful people in the country. However, in the middle of the celebration, an unexpected guest arrives.

It was Master Hibai Kung, the representative of the 5 clans in China.

The party is being held in the mini-park at the top of the NXT Element Company building, which astonished the guest at the scene and the structure of the blissful and tranquil place.

When Master Kung arrives with two bodyguards, Shin Jiao greeted him warmly. He and his late grandfather owed the old man a lot and he is not an ungrateful man. When the people saw Master Kung they too approached him.

Who wouldn\'t? The old man is a famous person. But only those at the top knew that he is a powerful cultivator. Even Shin Jiao didn\'t know before until he met him again at the mech battle.

That night, the atmosphere was warm as people that Shin Jiao knew mingle with each other. Many are glad to have attended the party because it was their chance to personally see and know two powerful figures in the country.

Shin Jiao also formally introduced Ju-long Jiao to all of his friends as his son. Many actually thought that the young boy is the son of both Shin Jiao and Susan Tang as the three looks exactly alike. But they didn\'t correct this misconception.

Even Susan Tang\'s mother almost fainted knowing that she is already a grandmother even before her daughter was married. But they cleared this misunderstanding with them after the party. She also explained why she wanted to go with Shin Jiao on a trip.

The next day

A V10-Banshee which is the next generation of Banshee type aircraft that uses the rune core technology landed in front of the NXT Element Company Building at around 3 am in the morning. Shin Jiao, Susan Tang, Ju-long Jiao, Magenta, and his team got on the aircraft as they wave goodbye to the rest of the people left in the company.

Shin Jiao didn\'t know how long they would be away, but he is confident that everything would be fine after leaving something for Central.

The aircraft flew to the cloud really fast and soon reached the desert region of the United States. The long flight was really comfortable and didn\'t take a toll on the people inside the aircraft.

"You\'ve improved the design?" Shin Jiao said to Magenta as they walked down the aircraft.

"Yeah, we realized that using the rune core technology is feasible plus we have analyzed some parts of the rune tech that you\'ve distributed. So we were able to enhance its flight speed and durability. Do you think we can use this in the other world?" Magenta explained while walking.

"Nah, it\'s still not that strong. But it\'s close, we can give you some feasible metal alloys that can make it stronger… you can ask Park Jiyong for that. But of course, it comes with a price…" Shin Jiao said with a smile.

"Haha… of course we have a partnership here…" Magenta said with a grin.

As the group walked they reached a group of people waiting for them. Captain James Crugger along with the Chief of Staff Bill Housely meets with them.

"Long time no see!" Captain James said as he gave Shin Jiao a huge hug and nodded towards Susan Tang.

"Yeah, long time no see…" Shin Jiao replied.

They introduced the people with them while walking to an army vehicle. The group then traveled towards the walled portal where Mary and the rest are already waiting.

When Mary saw the three she smiled and immediately approached them. She gave Susan Tang a hug and patted Ju-long Jiao\'s cheeks which gained a frown from the young boy.

The group who are going to enter the portal is composed of around 20 people. While they are doing the final preparation, Shin Jiao walked towards the large vats inside the dome. Upon seeing the amount of Qi and mana in them, he showed a faint smile. He knew that the control was very efficient to prevent the overflow of Qi and mana.

He then walks towards a spot where a circle filled with runes is and immediately sat in a lotus position. When the people checking the portal saw this, they all look at each other and shrug their shoulders. This is because the mages in the area would sometimes do the same.

After closing his eyes, Shin Jiao calms his heart and focused his mind.

It\'s time for him to fill his sphere with energy and reach the 60th sphere.
