Li Chang'an's outwardly displayed strength wasn't particularly high.
Fourth layer of Qi Refining and a first-tier mid-grade talisman master.
This level of strength was decent enough in normal times.
But now, robber cultivators were everywhere.
After killing batch after batch, there was simply no end to them.
The accumulated talismans would eventually be consumed completely, ultimately forcing reliance on one's own cultivation to kill enemies.

About a quarter of an hour later, Li Chang'an finished his inventory.
"This fellow is truly fat with wealth," he silently marveled.
The treasures within the bracelet had a total value of no less than three thousand spirit stones.
Adding to the over two thousand spirit stones he already had, the total exceeded five thousand spirit stones!
What an enormous sum!
Some small-scale Qi Refining families couldn't even produce this many spirit stones.

Zheng Jinbao's voice trembled as he stammered out the location of his hidden treasures.
"I did indeed hide many treasures, they're... they're in this storage bag."
"Hmm?" Li Chang'an frowned slightly, staring at the storage bag in his hand.
He had already searched this storage bag thoroughly. Aside from a few hundred spirit stones, the rest were all mundane objects.
"I'm not lying to you, they really are inside," seeing that Li Chang'an seemed not to believe him, Zheng...

This Foundation Establishment battle, just as Li Chang'an had guessed, was not conducted within the market.
Qinghe Market was, after all, the Zheng family's territory, so Zheng Yuandao couldn't possibly fight here.
And Cao Zhengxiong seemed to have his concerns as well.
"Both Foundation Establishment ancestors have gone outside the market, and the fighting won't affect the market, so when will the market chaos mentioned in the divination occur?" Li Chang'an silently pondered...

The night gradually deepened.
Inside the room, Li Chang'an slowly opened his eyes, a trace of joy flashing in their depths.
"Fifth layer of Qi Refining!"
This breakthrough had been quite smooth, a natural progression!
He had remained at the fourth layer of Qi Refining for a long time, accumulating quite deeply, needing only that final step.
This change of cultivation technique had become the opportunity for breakthrough.

Previously, the robber cultivator who died under the sneak attack was the Seventh Chief of Black Wind Mountain.
"These two were both at the seventh layer of Qi Refining cultivation. The reason they targeted the Zheng family was because they accepted employment from the Foundation Establishment Cao family."
After some interrogation, Li Chang'an obtained the answers he wanted.
The Foundation Establishment Cao family had actually colluded with the notorious Black Wind Mountain ...

Zheng Jie reflected on his own stupidity and quickly realized more possibilities.
Lu Xinyi's scheme very likely had planned follow-ups:
If any of the remaining two people gave Zheng Jie a thumbs-up, then Zheng Jie couldn't tell at all who had actually given it.
If he mistakenly thought Lu Xinyi had given it and sent another meeting invitation, perhaps another trap would be waiting for him.
And even if the current situation occurred, where Zheng Jie didn't receive a sin...

Without realizing it, within the Book of a Hundred Lives, a month had passed.
Bai Ruxue had completely settled down in Huan Fishing Village.
Bai Ruxue washed clothes and cooked for Xiao Mo, dried fish, and took Xiao Mo out to sea to fish.
Every time they went out to sea to fish, the two of them would return with a full catch.
And every time Xiao Mo praised Bai Ruxue, saying "Sister Bai, you're so amazing," the woman's eyes would crinkle into crescents, and sometimes sh...

The next morning, when Xiao Mo woke up and walked out of the bedroom, he saw Ruxue bustling about in the courtyard.
She wrung out the washed clothes and hung them on the pole one by one.
The sea breeze blew past, gently lifting her silver-white long hair.
She tucked the hair strands behind her ear, droplets of water from the clothes staining her cold white lotus-like arms, like dewdrops soaking white silk.
Looking at the woman's appearance, Xiao Mo felt somewhat dazed ...

For himself, this second life was merely the blink of an eye but for Bai Ruxue, this was three thousand years of waiting.

Little Green left.
Bai Ruxue continued sitting in the formation array, her legs curled up, arms tightly wrapped around her knees, eyes earnestly watching the Three Lives Array floating above but since the Three Lives Array had been established for so many years, there had never been any movement.
Xiao Mo stood beside Ruxue, looking at her appearance.
He hadn't expected that after more than two thousand years had passed, Ruxue would still be so devoted to him.

Xiao Mo returned to the imperial palace as evening fell.
Not long ago, Yan Shan'ao had spoken with Xiao Mo.
The empress coronation ceremony was postponed to four months later.
The reason was that Elder Huang of Ten Thousand Swords Sect had arrived several days late, missing the auspicious day that had been the day before yesterday.
The next good day would only come four months later.

This deep sea was originally boundless, but it reflected the woman's figure.
