Chapter 2049: Haven't Discussed the Dao in a Long Time
The teahouse discussions all concerned matters related to the Collapsed Dao Fallen Yellow forbidden zone.
Some He Pingsheng knew, some He Pingsheng did not.
"Heh..." someone said: "That woman from the Gu family is ruthless after all; rumor has it she fused with the Hongmeng Ultimate Dao Bell and teleported away!"
"Even the God Emperor cannot find her trace!"
Hearing this news, everyone grew curious.
"Holy shit, no way?"
"The Hongmeng Ultimate Dao Bell really appeared in the world?"
"What does it look like?"
"Wasn't it said to have shattered in ancient times?"
The dozen or so people around asked in unison.
Some explained, some speculated.
But much of it diverged greatly from the actual situation.
After drinking two pots of tea, He Pingsheng left directly, found a desolate mountain not far away, then opened a temporary cave dwelling and moved in.
No choice; he feared running into an acquaintance.
If he ran into a God King-level fellow at that time, it would be trouble.
Although his disguise talisman can change his appearance, the effect only lasts three days.
Several months later, when the great ship activated, He Pingsheng returned!
Of course, when he returned he had used the disguise talisman to alter his appearance.
After boarding the great ship, everyone was assigned a room; He Pingsheng also set up formations outside his room.
The great ship flew for six years, then returned to Xuanji City.
The journey was peaceful and uneventful, and he did not run into any acquaintances.
After disembarking, He Pingsheng dared not linger in Xuanji City; he bid farewell to Wu Dabao, then took Qing Yu and Bai Yi and departed, heading toward the He clan.
"The Young Master has returned?"
"Yo... is this the Young Master's newly acquired servant?"
"Impressive, impressive..."
"The Young Master is truly extraordinary!"
He Pingsheng had just returned when Old Diao stepped forward in lockstep, smiling broadly and flattering him.
He Pingsheng took out some cultivation resources from his ring and gave them directly to Old Diao, saying: "Take these and cultivate!"
"Is your maternal uncle and the others all here?"
"Yes, yes, yes..." Old Diao said: "With the Young Master not home, my maternal uncle dare not go out casually; he must guard the He clan!"
He Pingsheng asked again: "During this one Yuan I spent at the Collapsed Dao Fallen Yellow, did the clan encounter any major incidents?"
"Er..." Old Diao smiled bitterly and said: "No major incidents, but it's the same as before — not being a top-tier clan, we're always exploited by others!"
"No one can do anything about it!"
"But fortunately, our properties are all intact!"
"Good!" He Pingsheng nodded: "You go busy yourself; I'll go take a look!"
He Pingsheng brought Qing Yu and Bai Yi into the He clan.
Straight into the He clan's main hall!
Unfortunately Su Zhenzhen was not there.
But Zhou Qingmei appeared before He Pingsheng very quickly.
"Where is everyone?" He Pingsheng asked: "Are they all in seclusion?"
"No!" Zhou Qingmei said: "Madam Qiao and Madam Wen are managing the medicine garden opened up in the valley behind; but right now they might also be in seclusion, this servant cannot be sure!"
"The two Madams live in deep seclusion; ordinarily I cannot see them either!"
He Pingsheng said: "What about the others?"
Zhou Qingmei said: "Xin Baobao and Taizhen are indeed in seclusion!"
"That girl Luo Bingyao ran off to travel and gain experience!"
"Madam Su is probably at the Divine Statue Hall right now!"
"Young Master, please wait a moment; I'll go call the Madams over right now!"
He Pingsheng waved his hand and said: "No need; let them attend to their own affairs. You help me summon two people!"
"One is Su Zhenzhen, one is Old Cao!"
"Aye!" Zhou Qingmei went out to call them.
In just a few breaths' time, Su Zhenzhen came running over in a fluster: "Husband has returned..."
She wore a black Daoist robe, her waist slender, her skin fair, her figure yet exquisitely graceful to the utmost.
Every time he saw Su Zhenzhen, a strange feeling would surge in He Pingsheng's heart.
This woman purely relied on desire to keep He Pingsheng's heart.
"Sit!" He Pingsheng had her sit beside him.
At this moment, Old Cao also came running over in a fluster.
"The Young Master has returned..."
"Wonderful, wonderful... as long as you're back!"
He Pingsheng motioned with his chin for Old Cao to sit opposite, then took out a ring and gave it directly to Su Zhenzhen, saying: "These are some resources I obtained during my years away; you take them to supplement our He clan's needs!"
The ring contained everything.
Not only are there various materials, elixirs, divine talismans, and divine artifacts, but also a vast amount of divine gold.
These were all looted by him from the rings of the Nine Directions Crown Prince, Tian Chong Daoist, Gu Changsheng, and Gu Bai Ping and their few companions.
"Ah..." Su Zhenzhen nodded slightly.
He Pingsheng then said: "You go first to my dojo and wait for me... I have some words to say with Old Cao!"
Su Zhenzhen floated away.
Only Old Cao, He Pingsheng, Qingyu, and Baiyi remained in the great hall.
"I heard Old Diao say that we have established ourselves here, yet we have encountered new troubles?" He Pingsheng looked at Old Cao.
Old Cao shook his head: "No... don't listen to his nonsense!"
"It's nothing but interests!"
"As long as you establish a family, no matter where you go, you will always have some entanglements of interest with other families; these are not grudges, these small matters we can handle well!"
"Good!" He Pingsheng then took out another ring, saying: "Inside this, there is a total of two hundred thousand divine gold!"
Old Cao's brow twitched: "That much?"
"Mm!" He Pingsheng said: "Top grade!"
"What?" Old Cao was utterly moved, he opened his mouth wide: "Top grade... two hundred thousand..."
"This... hiss hiss hiss..."
"Young Master, did you strike down the God Emperor?"
He Pingsheng smiled without speaking.
These divine gold were all produced by him using the Treasure Basin to strengthen when he was in the Equal District.
"Two matters!" He Pingsheng extended two fingers: "First, take this two hundred thousand top-grade divine gold, go again to the Yaoguang God Kingdom, wander around, see if you can get them to release Rain Thought first for me!"
Having a God King-level servant by one's side is truly very convenient.
"Well..." Old Cao smiled and said: "Money can make ghosts push millstones... don't look at those God Emperors high and mighty, hahaha..."
"Of course, God Emperors look down on our divine gold!"
"But the county magistrate is not as good as the current administrator!"
"When the time comes, the old servant will handle the management!"
He Pingsheng nodded: "Second matter, this is Qingyu, this is Baiyi..."
"Baiyi is of the first layer of the God Venerable Realm in cultivation!"
"Both are my servants; from today onward, they will remain in the He family, helping to guard!"
"You just arrange for them!"
"Go!"
He Pingsheng patted his buttocks, somewhat impatiently walked out from the family great hall, heading toward his dojo.
With a creak, the dojo's door opened.
After one breath, He Pingsheng again closed the dojo's door!
Inside the great hall, pearls were placed like stars upon the ceiling, radiant light shining brightly.
At the center of the floor, a large futon was laid.
Upon the futon was placed an exquisite divine wood tea table; on the tea table, tea fragrance filled the air, white smoke curling gently.
Su Zhenzhen, barefoot, rose from the futon, shook her hair like blue silk: "Husband... I have just brewed divine tea, come taste it!"
He Pingsheng smiled: "The tea can wait!"
"Zhenzhen... it has been a long time since I last discussed the Dao with you!"
Su Zhenzhen's face instantly flushed red: "I have already attained absolute wisdom, what Dao is there left to discuss?"
He Pingsheng walked onto the futon, saying: "Naturally, it is to harmonize the Yin-Yang Dao..."
