Chapter 553: No, I still have to continue asking Young Master Li for advice! (Seeking...)

Hua Rumeng was bent on practicing sword techniques, or rather, breaking through to a higher realm.

After giving birth, she had returned to the Hundred Flower Sect without regard for her husband's opposition. In fact, she felt very guilty for not being able to serve her husband and had always attached great importance to correspondence with her family.

"My wife Rumeng, your husband has been highly valued by King Qinglin for many years and is now even entrusted with the position of Prime Minister of Qinglin. I wonder if your Hundred Flower Sect is prosperous?

If the sect has no improvement, you may return home to recuperate. Your husband will naturally send people to manage the Hundred Flower Sect and beg King Qinglin to vigorously support it!"

The content of the letter made Hua Rumeng, who had always been strong, somewhat disappointed. She had originally thought it was her husband's concern, but she didn't expect it to be him wanting her to go back.

With her husband's status, it was not difficult to inquire about the recent situation of the Hundred Flower Sect.

The implication was clearly saying: The sect you are running has no improvement, so you might as well go home and be a caged bird. I will have the Qinglin Empire vigorously support the sect, and it will certainly develop better than you managing it!

Under her management for many years, the Hundred Flower Sect's strength was actually considered top-tier among many small sects, but due to the lack of "top" combat power, it had failed to advance to the ranks of top small sects.

Don't underestimate the Heavenly Abyss Realm; as long as there is one Heavenly Abyss Realm expert, this sect can gain a foothold locally.

The Sage Realm is for "legendary" level major sects; the Tian Ce Dynasty doesn't have many.

How could Hua Rumeng, who had suffered successive blows, stand this?

You don't think I can make achievements? I will make some achievements for you to see!

If it were in the past, Hua Rumeng wouldn't even dare to think about it, but today is different from the past. He Ying, who had always been lazy about cultivation and whose cultivation aptitude was not as good as hers, could advance to the Heavenly Abyss Realm under Li Chen's guidance, so why couldn't she?

Under He Ying's preconceived notions, she had originally thought Li Chen would take the opportunity to take advantage of her while guiding her, but after these days of contact, she had long concluded that it was simply a lie made up by He Ying.

Li Chen was exceptionally talented, humble, humorous, and witty; how could he be so unbearable?

Hua Rumeng had an idea and immediately said to a disciple on the side: "Go and dig up the Daughter Red I buried more than ten years ago."

"He He Zongzhu, wasn't that prepared for the Young Lady's wedding? Could it be that the Young Lady is getting married? That would truly be a great joy for our Hundred Flower Sect!" The disciple was stunned, then full of joy.

Hua Rumeng raised her brows and didn't look back: "I told you to go, why so many words?"

After finishing the sect trifles for the day, Hua Rumeng wore a white tube-top high-slit ru-skirt, tied her waterfall-like long hair into a bun, held the Daughter Red, and knocked on Li Chen's courtyard door.

"He He Zongzhu Hua, didn't my young master say that you don't need to be polite when you come, just look for him directly?" Xuan Ji opened the door with a look of surprise.

When she saw the wine jar in the other party's hand, Xuan Ji smiled and said: "He He Zongzhu Hua, is this trip for something you need help with?"

Hua Rumeng saw that her thoughts were exposed, and a flush appeared on her face, which still retained its charm. She endured the awkwardness and nodded.

Asking for help naturally requires the appearance of asking for help. For a high-gate disciple like Li Chen, the spiritual treasures and great medicines that he could look upon were not something a small sect like Hua Rumeng's could produce, so Hua Rumeng directly ordered people to dig up the Daughter Red she had carefully brewed back then.

"He He Zongzhu Hua came at just the right time; my young master happens to be drinking in the courtyard." Xuan Ji smiled, took the wine jar, led Hua Rumeng into the courtyard, and then, right in front of Hua Rumeng, opened the Daughter Red wine jar and poured the clear and mellow wine into Li Chen's wine glass.

After one sip, Li Chen shook his wine glass slightly, nodded, and said: "Spiritual rice as the main ingredient, supplemented by thousand-year-old osmanthus flowers for fermentation, then using sweet spiritual spring for brewing, and then cellar-aged underground for more than ten years. He He Zongzhu Hua truly has a heart. Please sit."

Hearing this, Hua Rumeng's eyes turned red in an instant, but it was quickly forcibly suppressed by her.

At a time when even her husband was questioning her, Li Chen actually didn't ask the reason while knowing she had something to ask, and agreed to her request in disguise. This feeling of being understood and even cared for was the first time she, who had always been strong, had felt it.

"Young Master Li, I... I want to break through to the Heavenly Abyss Realm. I want to trouble you for some pointers." Hua Rumeng's voice trembled as she spoke.

"Want to break through to the Heavenly Abyss Realm?" Li Chen frowned slightly, quietly examining the wine glass in his hand.

Hua Rumeng saw Li Chen's appearance and was afraid that Li Chen would refuse, so her knees went soft and she knelt on the ground: "I implore Young Master Li to help me. No matter what price I need to pay, I am willing!" ===== CHAPTER 554 =====
