~8 min read 1,583 words

Every time Li Chen came to Shanghe City, he also felt that this place had changes.

It had the trend of becoming the number one big city in the west of the Heavenly Strategy Dynasty.

However, he came relatively often, so he wasn't as fussed as others.

This time it counted as traveling incognito. The officials of Shanghe City and the cultivators of the surrounding big sects hadn't received notice yet.

Otherwise, Li Chen was afraid that as soon as he got off the train, there would be an overwhelming crowd to welcome him, which was truly too troublesome.

If it weren't for promising Jiang Rong to eat a hot pot later and make the hot pot restaurant a golden signboard, Li Chen would have been too lazy to expose his identity.

Perhaps Li Chen didn't expect now that there would be any surprises waiting for him on this trip.

Entering Shanghe City, several people walked familiarly toward the Jiang family mansion.

Since coming to this place, Luo Zixi had felt a bit of loss.

Seeing the familiar scene, she thought of her family being destroyed, and she didn't even know, so she felt a bit of guilt inside.

As a person of Luoshui Villa, she should have contributed a share of strength.

Her sister Luo Qimeng kept comforting her and threw the pot to Jun Wuhui. Who let that guy Jun Wuhui have no human touch at all?

Back then, Luo Qimeng felt Jun Wuhui was too arrogant, doing things regardless of the cost, very unreliable.

Who knew her younger sister would fall in love and run away from home just like that.

The two mature sister pairs chatted like this and arrived at the Jiang family.

The Jiang family in front of them was completely different from the previous one. The previous Jiang family was just a first-class commercial family, just like the current Wei family, decorated luxuriously, carved railings and jade masonry, but without any feeling of foundation.

As imperial relatives, the entire mansion had been expanded several times, and the scale was so magnificent and the decoration so luxurious that even the cultivation families in Shanghe City would secretly click their tongues when they saw it.

The main gate was built with a whole piece of "Mysterious Heaven Green Jade", and the door pillars were coiled with lifelike golden dragon reliefs, with two "Nine Nether Underworld Fire Pearls" inlaid in the dragon eyes.

Ordinary families couldn't use golden dragon reliefs, because Li Chen often came here, which counted as his temporary palace, so they could use them.

The plaque hanging on the lintel wasn't written with ordinary gold paint, but written with "Star Sand" mixed with "Thousand-Year Spiritual Marrow", and flowing light faintly swam between the brush strokes.

The mansion walls were built with "Primordial Vajra Stone" throughout. This kind of material was usually only used for refining top-level defensive magic treasures. Ordinary cultivators could hardly find a piece in their whole life, but the Jiang family was so extravagant as to use it to build walls!

What was even more astonishing was that the wall surface was also engraved with dense array patterns, forming a "Nine Heavens Imperial Spirit Array". Even if a Sage Realm powerhouse attacked forcefully, it would be difficult to break through for a while.

Building it so luxuriously was also to provide safety for Li Chen's accommodation.

Not only that, the floor tiles underfoot were paved with "Hundred-Year Warm Jade". Stepping on it with bare feet, one could feel wisps of spiritual energy seeping into the meridians, which was of great benefit to cultivation.

The spiritual plants beside were even more shocking. Three "Seven Treasures Wonderful Trees" were planted on the left, each tree bearing spiritual fruits of different attributes, emitting an alluring fragrance.

This was the spiritual fruit Jiang Mo liked to eat the most. As soon as she entered the door, she picked a few fruits to eat.

Eating the sweet fruit into her stomach, Jiang Mo felt moved endlessly.

Before, when cultivating in the sect, if she wanted to eat these fruits, she had to do tasks to exchange for merit points. She couldn't bear to eat one in a month.

Since obtaining Li Chen's favor, Li Chen could even plant fruit trees for her, just treating them as ordinary fruit to fill her stomach.

This was something she only dared to dream about in her dreams.

On the right was a "Phantom Heart Lotus Pond". The lotus leaves were as big as carriage covers, and the lotus seeds conceived in the lotus pods could enhance sensory perception after being taken.

It made Luo Zixi, who had mixed in hidden sects and seen a lot of the world, couldn't help but take a few more looks.

In her view, not to mention a commercial family, she thought it was which ancient top cultivation family.

Such a foundation truly made people envious.

Luo Zixi thought: Jiang Rong's family originally declined, but after following Li Chen, the Jiang family became so glorious.

Her own family actually declined, but after following Jun Wuhui, it was destroyed.

It turned out that following Li Chen could obtain such benefits. If she had known earlier, she would have followed Li Chen and not wasted her youth on Jun Wuhui.

Originally, she had no complaints about Jun Wuhui. Even if she was a bit bitter usually, thinking of her husband's heaven-reaching ability, she felt comforted.

But Li Chen's appearance made her feel that without comparison, there was no harm.

The inside of the Jiang Mansion was expanded even more like a small imperial palace. This didn't rely entirely on the imperial clan; the wealth accumulated by the Jiang family was also very astonishing.

Ever since Li Chen entered the Jiang Mansion, the news spread very quickly.

Jade Yu Xu Xian Fu, a huge cultivation force with thousands of years of foundation.

The Mansion Master here was a mainstay in the Sage Realm, with the Daoist name Qingxu Shangren.

Qingxu Shangren was not only powerful but also relatively versatile. It could be said that array formations, talismans, sword techniques, alchemy, etc., could be said to be proficient in everything.

Whether it was fame or status, they were quite high in the Heavenly Strategy Dynasty.

But such a strong person was now being punished by his Dao companion to kneel in the Cave Heaven secret room with a fawning smile.

"Haven't returned for so long, where did you go to mess around?"

The one speaking was the former He He Zongzhu of the Heavenly Wolf Sect, a woman as fierce as a wolf or tiger.

"Madam, I swear to heaven, I absolutely didn't mess around. I, along with the He He Zongzhu of the Spirit Flame Dao Sect, Wanfeng True Person, and the powerhouse from the Northern Sun Moon Dragon Clan, He Lan Xuan, helped His Majesty Li Chen in the eastern coastal area to fight against the Sea Clan, forming a strong human defense line to avoid the suffering of all living things!"

Qingxu Shangren said solemnly, as if describing a magnificent history.

That feeling was as if humanity would perish without the three of them.

But his Dao companion didn't buy it.

"Nonsense, His Majesty has heaven-reaching ability. Your little cat-and-dog skills are not bad if you don't add chaos to His Majesty. And Wanfeng True Person has always had fame greater than strength; his reputation in the cultivation world is severely polarized. He Lan Xuan is from the Northern Great Snow Mountain before; who knows what he is thinking? You'd better have less contact with him."

Hearing his Dao companion say this, Qingxu Shangren wanted to explain something, but seeing his Dao companion's look, he obediently closed his mouth.

There was no help for it; he had been out for half a year without returning, and the sect had always been managed by his Dao companion.

And the main thing was, without regular performance of the rites of husband and wife, it was normal for his Dao companion to have resentment.

When he came, he was afraid as soon as he thought of his Dao companion, so he prepared to find some excuse to leave.

Qingxu Shangren indicated that he had a wine party with Chi Yuan True Person, but his Dao companion refused directly, saying Chi Yuan True Person's reputation was even worse than Wanfeng True Person's, and it was best for him not to associate with him.

Thinking of what was about to happen, Qingxu Shangren felt weak.

Just when he was about to accept his fate, someone seemed to be asking to see him outside the cave.

Only then did Qingxu Shangren stand up, looking like a Mansion Master.

The visitor was Qingxu Shangren's personal disciple, and also the eldest disciple of the Jade Yu Xu Xian Fu.

Seeing him come, Qingxu Shangren's Dao companion was thinking inside: I'll see what other tricks you want to play.

Qingxu Shangren was also thinking: I don't seem to have arranged for you to appear?

The personal disciple bowed respectfully and said: "Master, His Majesty Li Chen has arrived in Shanghe City and invites you for a chat."

This made Qingxu Shangren's eyes light up: I'm saved!

This Dao companion of his dared to scold anyone, but she couldn't scold His Majesty Li Chen, right?

That was His Majesty's invitation; I don't have the ability to collude with His Majesty!
