SSS rank Mother-In-Law to an Invincible Family

However, due to the size of the library, the system took more than an hour to copy its contents.

Meanwhile, Xu Qianghua read all the historical books about this city as he knew little about it or the Central Continent.

In his last life, he started his journey on the Eastern continent, far from its center. He and his family spawned near the border.

The closest continent was the North Continent, known for its pacifist nature. Most people and cultivators there were content with their own continent, leading to little contact with others before he came back in time.

However, he knew that the Family-Style players stationed in the Central City of the Eastern Continent traveled to other continents.

They never published their findings for others because they discovered they could resell items from other continents at a higher price in the Eastern Continent, making a lot of money.

When the Zerg attacked this world, they focused mainly on the Eastern Continent, which had fewer powerful cultivators.

Most top Family-style players monopolized high-level resources, creating a power vacuum.

When the Zerg attacked, many top fighters left the continent, hoping the Eastern Continent could hold off the invaders while they sought help from other continents.

But this move backfired. The Southern and Central Continents killed these deserters and sent their powerful cultivators to fight alongside the Eastern cultivators.

This was when Xu Qianghua and his family shone the most.

Liu Meiying used this major incident to become the number one chamber of commerce in the Eastern Continent and one of the top chambers of commerce in the world.

When they became one of the best, they did their best to restore the Eastern Continent to its peak and even improve it, obtaining many items from other continents due to their fame.

However, due to passive blocking from the top families, this still did not allow him to gain much information about the Central Continent beyond basic information.

However, in this life, he got all the information needed as all the central cities have most of the information about the continent they are situated in.

This is one of the gifts the World's Will gave to everyone who can enter the Central City libraries. Whether the first players allow others to read this information is up to them.

The World's Will never interferes with humans' daily lives, knowing that these creatures are able to adapt and grow on their own.

Xu Qianghua sighed, frustrated by his last life. However, he knew that this time, things would be different.

He planned to ensure that all the continents were connected and grew together, even though it might take a long time.

Without long-term goals, humans would never achieve much. They must always keep moving forward, knowing they might fall back at times.

After an hour had passed, Xu Qianghua saw that they had finished scanning the contents of the library.

He returned to the room at the back of the library. After returning, he looked down at Huang Xinyi, who was still unconscious, and let the Shadow member leave them alone while he decided to cultivate while waiting for her.

Meanwhile, in the special space.

Huang Xinyi had deciphered the scripts, understood the historical clues, and applied logical reasoning to connect everything.

She realized that the puzzle was not just about understanding the past of this City Lord but also about applying her knowledge to solve these problems.

The World's Will was trying to see if the soon-to-be City Lords only focused on the past or if they thought from their experiences before taking these challenges.

Soon, she figured out the reason for the problem and cleared it. But a new one appeared before her with a different problem from a different City Lord.

Seeing this, she knew that the challenge would not end soon, so she did not work as hard as the last one but took her time to solve the problems while ensuring she had enough rest.

Days passed as Huang Xinyi immersed herself in the different histories of different city lords who used different ways to govern their cities.

She entered a special state where she could comprehend and solve the problems and puzzles presented by the World's Will much faster.

While doing so, she gained a lot of knowledge, making her understand and fix her flaws.

Before she knew it, she had solved all the problems and puzzles the World's Will gave.

As she finished the final puzzle, the entire room glowed with a bright light, and she felt her soul being pushed away by some force.

And before she could react, she heard the World Will's voice in her mind.

"Congratulations, Huang Xinyi. You have passed the Trial of Wisdom. Your understanding and wisdom will guide this city to prosperity."

Huang Xinyi, who was stunned for a second, sighed, not knowing how much time had passed.

But she had done it. She had proven her wisdom and earned the second key to the City Lord's treasury.

Her vision blurred again, and she found herself back in the small library room. Xu Qianghua was there, smiling at her.

"Well done, Xinyi," he said. "I knew you could do it."

"Thank you, Master," she replied.

After a short while, she asked, "How much time has passed?"

"About three hours," he answered, smiling at her reaction.

He knew this would happen as he had read similar reactions from other City Lord challengers.

"Three hours? I thought it would be much more than that," she said, shocked.

She said this because, even though she had spent weeks inside and knew the time difference was significant, she hadn't expected it to be this large.

She then explained her time estimates and the reason for her shock.

When he heard this, one of his eyebrows rose. However, he then recalled the same challenge results from his past life and realized the time difference wasn't much different from before.

"It's okay, but how do you feel? Do you feel weird due to the time difference?" he asked.
