Chapter 564 - 180: Aftermath, Turmoil, Subjugation, Family Reunion
I have no feelings for Li Yuan, and not for any man.
If I must say, Li Yuan once moved me...
He is the husband I recognize, so I am willing to maintain the marriage in name with him.
Princess Consort Yin is in the past; now there is only Lady Li.
As for what Li Yuan wants to do, I roughly understand. I approve, because I really cannot turn back anymore...
Compared to returning and getting caught in a vortex of certain death, I’d rather follow my man to the Western Pole.
Jing Shuixiang said speechlessly: "The Western Pole is barren, there’s no place for cultivation."
Cui Huayin said: "Husband said there will be, it just takes time."
Jing Shuixiang looked at Li Yuan and said: "Hey, husband, where will you get a Meat Field? We need at least a Fifth Grade Meat Field for cultivation now, and later we will need a Fourth Grade Meat Field."
Li Yuan walked over, wanting to embrace the petite Fourth Lady.
Fourth Lady slapped his hand away and said: "Wait, it’s been more than ten years since we last met, not familiar yet."
He then looked at Cui Huayin, who rolled her eyes playfully.
Li Yuan said: "Yaojue is still the best."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Yaojue twisted her hips and sat next to Cui Huayin, starting to whisper with her. As Li Yuan approached, the three women tacitly looked up.
Their three gazes formed a suppression, forcing Li Yuan to sit quietly by the door.
Li Yuan sat for a long time until Yaojue chuckled and said: "Master, are you afraid of your wives? Letting us have our way like this?"
Li Yuan yawned, stretching his body and said: "It’s no harm letting you have your fun."
The three women huddled together again, whispering about something unknown.
And the atmosphere slowly became harmonious.
In the wind, the curtains occasionally lifted.
Li Yuan gazed out at the snow-covered Cang Mountain and the vast snow. Along the way, the gaze fixed on Ping’an seemed to never appear again.
Maybe it was shaken off?
Or perhaps it was a problem with Ping’an himself?
Forget it...
He shook his head, stopping his thoughts, and instead began to recall the matters of Mianzhou Path and Fujiang Path.
Once he sent his loved ones back, he would set off again.
But this time, without the restraint of loved ones, he could let go even more.
He was in the dark, others in the light.
He could trouble others, but others could not trouble him.
He had the "Human World Transformation" to change infinitely, while others could only rely on Evil Ghost Tools.
This was ideal.
However, he also had a weakness in that he had enough strength, but lacked mobility.
If he lowered his power to Ping’an’s level, in terms of speed and transformation, he would be no match for Ping’an... unless he used Vibrational Force. But that was still a case of sheer power breaking all techniques.
Li Yuan summarized and pondered.
Feeling sleepy, he yawned again peacefully.
After a while... gentle snores came from the Flying Carriage.
Jing Shuixiang glanced at him speechlessly and said: "Such a big heart..."
Yaojue said: "This shows that Master really treats Miss and Sister Shuixiang as family."
"Family and such..." Cui Huayin hesitated, retracting the last sentence "I don’t want to." She turned to look out the window, her flawless face appeared strikingly beautiful in the wind and snow.
...
...
White Bamboo Bell Tower.
Gu Xuejian stood in the main hall, and the person opposite her wore an Ink Plum Robe, it was Qing Hancheng.
Qing Hancheng quietly listened to the report from this second expert of the Divine Wood Hall.
The two spoke while gazing at each other.
Gu Xuejian wanted to find a flaw in Qing Hancheng, after all, she couldn’t speak of Qing Hancheng’s collusion with the Lotus Sect, nor could she seek outside help, otherwise she would have already allied with several other major forces.
She said Qing Hancheng betrayed, Qing Hancheng said she betrayed, it was endless. Ultimately, it depended on who had the stronger fist.
However, Gu Xuejian trusted Li Ping’an more.
Only... at this time Qing Hancheng, after listening to the report, simply instructed her to continue watching the Lotus Sect, to see if the Lotus Sect was willing to release people, and he would also pay attention to the Sect Leader’s actions, stepping in if the high-echelon acted.
Qing Hancheng behaved appropriately, making it impossible to detect any problems.
After Gu Xuejian left, Qing Hancheng’s expression changed slightly, his eyes showing a thoughtful look, but he soon became steadfast again.
Strength is everything.
Nothing can stop him from cultivating and breaking through now.
As long as he can break through to Third Grade, the various chaotic lines of the world’s turmoil can be cut with one stroke like a tangled mess.
...
...
The disappearance of the four Elders of the Divine Wood Hall thoroughly angered Gu Xuejian.
This Fourth Grade Powerhouse began using Thunder Power to frantically clear out the Lotus Sect’s secret investigators in Mianzhou Path.
In a certain underground, dark, and hidden chamber, several women were hiding, not daring to make a sound.
Meanwhile, in the distant brothel, many disciples wearing the uniform of the Divine Wood Hall were entering. Those disciples soon dragged out quite a few enchanting women, shackling them.
Outside it was noisy and chaotic.
But inside the underground chamber, it was extremely quiet.
For a long time...
And even longer...
No one knew how much time had passed.
Only then did a woman speak softly.
"Saintess, what should we do?"
However, there was no response.
"Saintess, Dian Wei... don’t think about him anymore, he might already have died in some Ghost Realm. He was so muddle-headed..."
"Shut up."
"Saintess, didn’t you teach us that women should not fall in love? Pull yourself together."
"Shut up, what do you know?"
In the darkness, the woman’s voice was cold.
This was precisely the White Spirit Water who had been searching for Li Yuan all day but couldn’t find him.
If it were an ordinary man, she wouldn’t have cared at all, but Dian Wei was no ordinary man. The strong sense of loss in her heart still hadn’t dissipated.
Because she knew that missing Dian Wei meant finding another man who could help her ascend in her Charm Technique would be enormously difficult.
Charm Technique was like a vine, only by clinging to a big tree totally devoted to her could it grow upward and further.
Seducing was a minor technique, and selling oneself was a despicable brothel trick.
And speaking of a big tree, apart from Dian Wei, she couldn’t think of anyone more suitable.
White Spirit Water closed her eyes and gently said, "Stay calm, we just sit still, but they need to deploy more manpower to search everywhere, let’s wait it out."
The Little Demonesses following the Saintess quieted down at last, each sitting cross-legged, beginning to wait...
...
...
Several days later.
Two palace carriages landed in front of Chenxi Manor.
As the flying carriages approached, the manor had already been alerted, but seeing Mrs. Tang’s exclusive puppets, they relaxed.
Xue Ning and Xiaozhao knew, so the two women held hands and went to the courtyard to wait.
The palace carriage touched down,
The curtain was lifted,
Li Ping’an couldn’t wait to run out, and upon seeing the woman standing in the courtyard, his eyes turned red, and then scanning the matured and yet strikingly familiar woman beside her, he trembled...
"Mother!!"
"Big sister!!"
Xue Ning looked at him, her face full of smiles, yet she didn’t know what to say; she only said, "Ping’an, you’re back."
Hearing this, Li Ping’an’s tears began to flow, and he started sobbing in the snow.
Uncle Li, who was so arrogant and domineering outside, seemed never to escape the words "crybaby" at home.
However, he seemed to think he anticipated his big sister’s anticipation and said, "I’m just excited, not a crybaby... Big sister, you can’t beat me now!"
Xiaozhao said, "Yes, I can’t beat you now."
As soon as she said that, a group of robust but youthful-looking men and women, not knowing if they were children or adults, surged out from behind her.
These strong men and women were holding heavy weapons, either giant axes or wolf fang clubs, shouting, "Big sister, who can’t you beat! We’ll help you beat him!"
"Beat him to death!!"
"Hey, you skinny little thing, why do you call our big sister, big sister? Why do you call our aunt, mother?"
"Explain it clearly, make sure you explain it clearly!!"
In a flash, Xiaozhao was tightly surrounded by those already grown New Generation Ice Barbarians.
The Ice Barbarians, though only seven or eight years old, matured early, and their frames grew quickly.
Li Ping’an was taken aback for a moment, then... his temper flared up.
He, Li Ping’an, couldn’t stand anyone more impressive than him.
So he rolled up his sleeves and said, "Come on, let me show you why."
Li Yuan led three women to Xue Ning’s side, and signaled with his eyes.
Xue Ning already knew she had three daughters-in-law and quickly went over to stand with them.
These three noble family daughters might be domineering outside, but in front of Brother Ping’an’s mother, they were demure...
And soon, the courtyard had reached a conclusion.
A bunch of little beastly Ice Barbarians had bruised noses and swollen eyes, but stubbornly held their heads high, very unconvinced.
It wasn’t until Xiaozhao said, "He’s my biological brother" that these little rascals cupped their hands one by one and said, "So it’s the big brother, we’ve heard so much about you."
