Zhao Qingxue said, "Sister Yuan, you... have become more beautiful."
The two women looked at each other, both noticing that the other had become much younger, as if their appearances had returned to a few years ago, and their skin was even more delicate and fair.
Moreover, their bodies had some minor ailments, which had completely disappeared, and their spirits felt particularly good.
"The Longevity Pill and the Face Stabilizing Pill really worked!"
...
Before long...
Li Jin, whose eyes were often vacant and movements stiff, suddenly looked clear-headed.
He approached Li Xuan and Tian Yuan, earnestly calling out: "Father, Mother."
Then he added, "I have recovered, I’m sorry for worrying you before."
Even though he was only eight years old, he was taller than the average adult man, not only tall but also strong. When he spoke now, it was in a deep voice, with a rather strange sense of authority.
Tian Yuan hugged her son, crying tears of joy.
Li Jin gently patted his mother’s shoulder and looked at Li Xuan, saying, "Thank you, Father."
Li Xuan smiled and said, "Go call your sister over, I have something to tell both of you."
He wanted to explain the "ancestral incense passage" to his children to avoid any mistakes.
...
...
Everything went smoothly, without any ripples.
Li Xuan, disguised as hunters with his children, left the city gates at dawn when there were few people, heading north.
When they reached a secluded spot deep in the mountains, Li Xuan, ensuring no one was around, took his two wives, a concubine, and his children underground, quickly reaching the border of the Bronze Plain.
He calculated the time and looked towards the princely estate.
The Divine Martial Monarch’s estate was in seclusion, unseen by anyone.
Yet rumors suddenly began to spread in the capital, saying that Great Yong was preparing to attack, and that the returning Divine Martial Monarch feared he couldn’t win, so he fled with his wife and daughter.
The rumor erupted suddenly and without warning.
It was as if no one was talking about it one moment, and the next... everyone was discussing it.
The stories grew more and more exaggerated.
They said turmoil was approaching, the Divine Martial Monarch, commander of all the nation’s armies, had hurriedly fled.
Someone even shouted in the marketplace, "What a sham Divine Martial Monarch, should be called the Cowardly Monarch instead."
Strangely, the person shouting was not caught.
The Sovereign urgently sent someone to the Divine Martial Monarch’s estate to summon Li Xuan for important discussions.
However, those in the estate were instructed to say the Prince was in seclusion and couldn’t be seen.
The messenger then asked to see the Princess, to deliver a decree.
The servants of the estate had to say the lady was slightly ill and unfit to meet anyone.
Soon after, the northern lands of Great Yin seemed to be in turmoil.
Li Xuan could see that suddenly there were many people on the vast northern plain, seeming to search everywhere.
Shifting his gaze, his pupils focused on Yunzhou.
North of Yunzhou... flags covered the skies.
Great Yong had indeed launched an attack at that time.
Ji Changfeng aimed to incorporate Great Yin into his grasp.
He naturally would initiate an offensive.
...
Li Xuan patiently waited, and when the time was right, he lit the incense, taking his wife and children underground swiftly to the vicinity of Lingyi Sect, maintaining the guise of hunters, leading everyone into the sect hurriedly.
Now, he was the Sect Leader’s closed-door disciple, the nominal Peak Master of Feiguang Peak, Hua Xiaoying’s godson, and his name was firmly on the roster in the nine towns... he was entirely a member of Lingyi Sect.
...
The Sect Leader, Jin Tianchan, was in seclusion, comprehending the control of that flying sword.
The sword was called "Hundred Beasts."
Meanwhile, Hua Xiaoying, after a brief inquiry, led Li Xuan and his family to a house.
For mortals, Purple Mist Peak was not suitable for living, too close to the center of the spiritual veins, mortals couldn’t withstand so much spiritual energy, instead, the Hua family in the nine towns was better.
Subsequently, Hua Xiaoying and the Hua family’s old patriarch together selected a fine house for Li Xuan within the Hua family, which also served as the residence for Tian Yuan, Zhao Qingxue, and others.
The house had a courtyard.
The courtyard had a garden.
Outside the courtyard was half an acre of spirit fields.
To the left of the house was Hua Xiaoying’s residence in the Hua family.
To the right was also the residence of a Soldier Lord Realm cultivator from the Hua family, who didn’t typically return.
Tian Yuan and the Little Princess were very satisfied with such a house.
The house was not old, but extremely understated and luxurious.
The reason was simple...
Since the spiritual energy became abundant, and the Lingyi Sect opened its gates long ago, the old houses in the nine towns, a gold gathering place, had been completely renovated. The materials used here were even more exquisite than those of the royal palace.
Thus, although it was a house, everything inside was quite exquisite.
Tian Yuan changed into farm clothes, let her hair down, carried a hoe, and smiled at Li Xuan saying, "From now on, I will be a farm wife here, learn some spirit planting methods from others in town, and then grow vegetables for you to eat!"
Li Xuan also smiled and said, "When I’m not busy, I’ll also become a farmer and accompany you."
Hua Xiaoying, on the side, also smiled, saying, "You can’t become a farmer, anyone else can, just not you."
The Hua family’s old patriarch chuckled, saying, "The Peak Master of Feiguang Peak is joking."
As everyone was talking, the little girl beside them tugged on Li Xuan’s sleeve, softly calling, "Dad."
Li Xuan bent down, picked up the little girl, and held her in his arms, smiling as he asked, "Xiaojing, what is it?"
The little girl spoke clearly, "I also want to learn the flying sword."
Everyone was taken aback.
Suddenly, the newly awakened Li Jin also spoke, in a deep voice, "Father, so do I."
Li Xuan gently nodded and then looked at Hua Xiaoying, saying, "Godmother."
Hua Xiaoying nodded, saying, "I’ll have E’Er teach them, E’Er already likes being with you, so it would be nice for her to visit your home often."
...
That evening, Luo E came out of the cultivation chamber and went to find "the thigh" happily upon hearing Li Xuan had returned, only to bewilderedly become the master of Li Xuan’s children.
