Chapter 2213

Husband... please come in!

I'll draw the curtain for you!

Su Zhenzhen smiled as she gently helped He Pingsheng push open the hall door.

The two entered and then sat facing each other on either side of the small table in the hall.

While pouring tea, Su Zhenzhen said: "My tea-making skills can't compare to Wunan's younger sister... Should I go check if she's in seclusion? If not, I'll have her come make tea!"

He Pingsheng said: "No need... just you pour it!"

"Good!" Su Zhenzhen became even happier.

A cup of clear tea was placed before He Pingsheng.

As the tea fragrance swirled, He Pingsheng lowered his gaze to see a small black-and-white Taiji diagram slowly rotating at the center of the tea.

At first glance, this tea was anything but ordinary.

He picked up the cup and took a sip, saying: "This tea is excellent. This is my first time drinking it—what grade is it?"

Su Zhenzhen clasped her hands beneath her chin, gazing gently at He Pingsheng, her vermilion lips slightly parting as she said: "It's sixth-grade Dawan tea... Hmm... It's said to come from the famed divine tea trees of our Xuanji Divine Nation. Unfortunately, our He family lacks prominence, so we can't obtain the top grade—this is merely medium quality!"

"This tea tree can spontaneously condense Yin-Yang Dao laws, so after brewing, the tea forms Yin-Yang patterns in the cup!"

"Oh..." He Pingsheng nodded, then smiled again: "That reminds me of an old matter!"

Su Zhenzhen looked at He Pingsheng with a serious expression: "Husband, what old matter have you recalled?"

He Pingsheng said: "Harmonizing Yin and Yang..."

"Pfft..." Su Zhenzhen covered her mouth and laughed, then buried her face deep in her hands.

At that moment, He Pingsheng's three slaves hurried over.

Qian Zhu, Zheng Hong Lu, and Gu Baiying.

There's no way around it—master and slave share a heart-to-heart connection; they can instantly sense He Pingsheng's state, and if close enough, even perceive his exact position.

"Greetings, Young Master!"

All three bowed to He Pingsheng with joyful expressions.

He Pingsheng nodded: "Quickly rise, and sit down together!"

Yet no one sat down; they all consciously stood beside He Pingsheng.

He Pingsheng swept his Divine Sense over the three.

Gu Baiying's cultivation remained unchanged!

Qian Zhu practices the Blood Refining Method—her cultivation cannot be discerned, but Zheng Hong Lu's cultivation has been revealed.

God King Realm Tenth Layer.

"Hong Lu, impressive..." He Pingsheng said, quite astonished: "You've already reached the tenth layer?"

"That fast?"

He Pingsheng could break through from the seventh layer to the God Venerable Realm in a short span of a thousand yuan—six small stages—thanks to his high comprehension, aided by divine elixirs and divine talismans.

It's merely the God Lord Realm.

Zheng Hong Lu, however, is at the God King Realm.

How?

This is too fast, isn't it?

The key is, this woman cultivates Dao laws, not incense power.

"Yeah..." Gu Baiying beside her also wore an envious expression, saying: "Ordinary God King Realm cultivators need at least thousands, even tens of thousands of yuan to break through one layer—Zheng Daoist is truly exceptional!"

Zheng Hong Lu's face flushed slightly, as if unaccustomed to praise; she stepped back one pace, her expression sincere as she said: "Under normal circumstances, this is naturally impossible!"

"But, these two layers I've broken through as a slave do have reasons!"

"First, my accumulation is sufficient!"

"Previously, when I was at the eighth layer of the God King Realm, I gained sudden insight, and after that insight, I continued contemplating the Dao. Later, the Young Master bestowed upon me the Hongmeng Purple Qi to forge a Hongmeng Dao Body. After regaining insight, I soon broke through to the ninth layer of the God King Realm!"

"As for advancing from the ninth to the tenth layer, this is entirely due to the Young Master's fortune!"

He Pingsheng smiled and asked: "What does this have to do with this Young Master?"

Zheng Hong Lu said: "Of course it's related!"

"You didn't give me this, did you... This item can condense Spatial Dao laws, making my cultivation far more convenient than before!"

Speaking, Zheng Hong Lu picked up the purple-gold glove.

This item is indeed temporarily lent to her by He Pingsheng.

"Moreover!" Zheng Hong Lu continued: "I feel that since becoming the Young Master's slave, my fortune has improved, hehehe..."

He Pingsheng looked speechless.

"I understand... you don't need to explain further—return that purple-gold glove to me!"

He Pingsheng took back the purple-gold glove.

Zheng Hong Lu, however, said: "I still have one matter to report to you!"

He Pingsheng said: "Speak—here, we're all our own people!"

"Hmm hmm hmm..." Zheng Hong Lu said: "Earlier, Steward Cao didn't he give your image from the Collapsed Dao Fallen Yellow desperate land to the Seventh Assistant God, then spread it throughout the entire Divine Realm, everyone thinking the Nine Directions God Emperor would be sacrificed, but later it didn't happen!"

"I now know the true reason!"

"Oh?" He Pingsheng's eyes instantly brightened: "What reason?"

Zheng Hong Lu said: "It's the Space God Emperor... he doesn't want any of the Twelve Assistant Gods to come to harm!"

Su Zhenzhen said: "That's quite the protective parent!"

"No!" Zheng Hong Lu's eye sockets reddened as she said: "It's still because of my aunt!"

"My aunt nominally is the Space God Emperor's God Consort, but in reality, she's merely his slave and plaything!"

"You also know, a God Emperor cannot become another's servant……"

"Once the Space Assistant God dies, my aunt's current cultivation at the peak of the God Emperor Realm is very likely to advance and become an Assistant God; once she becomes an Assistant God, the slave mark on her body will naturally be lifted!"

"At that time, this Space God Emperor will lose the means to control my aunt, so he……"

"He……"

"Everything is a calculation!"

He Pingsheng's eyes narrowed: Interesting.

So that's why the Nine Directions God Emperor was able to escape death.

Tsk tsk tsk……

Just how beautiful is Zheng Hong Lu's aunt, to be worth the Space God Emperor controlling her like this?

Thump……

Zheng Hong Lu suddenly knelt before He Pingsheng, pleading bitterly: "Master, if one day you become strong, please save my aunt. She is the Space God Emperor's servant, yet as fellow servants, the Space God Emperor's abuse of her runs deep…… The Space God Emperor cannot compare to even one ten-thousandth of how well Young Master treats us……"

Thump thump thump……

Zheng Hong Lu kowtowed to He Pingsheng with all her might.

He Pingsheng said: "Get up…… You also know I cultivate the Space Grand Dao Law; in the future I will certainly have dealings with the Space God Emperor. If he doesn't die, how can I reach the pinnacle of the Grand Dao?"

"Even if you didn't say it, I would still do this!"

Zheng Hong Lu stood up.

He Pingsheng's gaze turned to Su Zhenzhen, and he said: "I have now reached the God Venerable Realm; my cultivation resources have also changed. I need fifth-grade…… whatever the clan has, bring it to me first!"

"I don't need the Dao Law Origin, but the Blood Butcher for refining the spirit, the Spirit Pivot Pill for restoring Divine Sense, and some heaven-and-earth treasures for restoring divine power!"

"Good!" Su Zhenzhen stood up: "This concubine will go organize them!"

"Mm!" He Pingsheng waved his hand: "You all withdraw!"

After everyone had withdrawn, He Pingsheng took out several divine artifacts and threw them into the Treasure Gathering Bowl.

Five Journey Army Umbrella!

Dan Zhu Sky-Shaking Bow!

Heavenly Demon Soul-Severing Spear!

Golden Mother Drum Hammer!

All are sixth-grade divine artifacts.

After all, He Pingsheng's cultivation has now broken through to the God Venerable Realm, and he can already strengthen sixth-grade items!

Leaving the grand hall, He Pingsheng came again to the He Clan's Divine Medicine Valley.

The Divine Medicine Valley has expanded considerably; inside there are even more varieties of divine materials.

Wen Buwan is not in the Divine Medicine Valley; busy here are some new-faced disciples whom He Pingsheng does not recognize at all.

Besides these disciples, there are also Zhu Dong and Wu Nana.

He Pingsheng glanced at the two's cultivation; these two have actually reached the God Monarch Realm.

Although only the first layer!

It's not that their cultivation is fast, but that He Pingsheng's seclusion this time was truly too long.
