Chapter 2214: Seeking Aid, the White Dragon Clan
How many apertures have you opened?
He Pingsheng looked at Wunana and asked.
Wunana's face was somewhat dark: "I am not talented; when I broke through to the God Lord realm, I only opened nine apertures..."
I... I I...
I am very stupid!
He Pingsheng reached out and patted her shoulder: "It's fine; even if you opened eighteen divine apertures, it would be useless, ultimately you would still walk the path of incense, so don't grieve over this!"
"And you!" After saying this, Wunana, He Pingsheng then looked toward Zhu Dong.
Zhu Dong's expression flickered with joy, somewhat proudly saying: "Young Master, I have opened twenty-one divine apertures!"
After saying this, still somewhat unsatisfied, his face bore a hint of "quickly praise me" expectation.
However, He Pingsheng slightly furrowed his brow: "Zhu Dong, you are blood-deficient!"
Zhu Dong asked: "Master, why do you say this?"
He Pingsheng said: "Look, twenty-one divine apertures, just right to cultivate to the God King Realm, isn't it?"
"But you don't cultivate the Dao arts, can you still reach the God King Realm!"
"The final outcome will be the same as Wunana's!"
Zhu Dong's face immediately turned bitter!
He Pingsheng again said: "But you don't need to be sad; these twenty-one apertures still have some use!"
"For example, proving you are slightly stronger than Wunana!"
"Moreover, if you purely cultivate the Dao arts, later in the God King Realm your combat power will far surpass peers of the same level!"
Zhu Dong's expression then improved somewhat: "Thank you, Master!"
He Pingsheng again asked: "You two... if there is mutual affection between man and woman, you can become Dao Companions!"
Pupu...
Wunana hurriedly knelt down, saying: "I dare not... I am your servant, Young Master, I dare not have other thoughts!"
He Pingsheng scratched his head, saying: "It's fine; you can have them, from today onward you can have them... if there is mutual affection, you two can directly become Dao Companions, I mean..."
"From now on, this matter also needs no further reporting to me!"
Zhu Dong immediately rejoiced: "Thank you, Master!"
When he was in the Immortal Realm, he had a family and children, numerous descendants, but after arriving in the God Realm he became a lone man, now having He Pingsheng's promise is just right.
As for Wunana, she also does not dislike Zhu Dong.
"Yin Pan Ying?" He Pingsheng asked again.
Zhu Dong said: "She... she... her talent is truly too good; we two cannot even hope to match Ying Sister's neck and back!"
"Oh?" He Pingsheng said: "How many divine apertures has she opened?"
Wunana said: "Thirty-three... hiss hiss hiss... Young Master, this is the future great God Emperor..."
The great God Emperor in Wunana's mouth naturally refers to the titled God Emperor.
He Pingsheng was also somewhat surprised.
Yin Pan Ying, Qiao Huizhu, and Wen Wannan, between the three there is some unclear connection; He Pingsheng previously guessed her divine aperture count was roughly similar to Qiao Huizhu and Wen Wannan, not thirty but thirty-one.
Who would have thought, she directly opened thirty-three?
Against heaven!
"Master, Yin Pan Ying is currently in closed-door cultivation; do I need to go call her?" Zhu Dong asked.
He Pingsheng shook his head: "No need, let her continue closed-door cultivation... Is your master's wife present?"
Zhu Dong looked toward the back of the valley, there stood a cyan great hall, he immediately pointed with his hand: "Master, the Young Master has returned... right now the master's wife is speaking with the Young Master in the great hall, the Young Master's complexion seems not too good!"
"Oh?"
He Pingsheng furrowed his brow, then took a step forward to stand before that great hall!
Zhu Dong had just said "Young Master," He Pingsheng had not yet reacted to who was being referred to, but he also could not rashly inquire, after all it is his own family affair.
Certainly it is some child, but specifically son or grandson?
Hard to say!
Asking too much easily invites contempt.
He Pingsheng entered the great hall, and indeed saw this so-called "Young Master."
The great hall is not particularly large, but its furnishings and layout are extremely exquisite.
Wen Wannan sat on a purple divine wood chair; before her was an oblong jade-green table case; opposite the table case stood a man.
Not another, this man is precisely He Pingsheng and Wen Wannan's second son: He Lu Yu.
This son was born after the death of the first son, He Tian Zhi.
"Father... you have emerged from seclusion..." Seeing He Pingsheng, He Lu Yu immediately rejoiced: "I just said to let mother call you out of seclusion, mother absolutely refused, saying she fears disturbing your cultivation!"
"I did not expect father to emerge just now, wonderful, wonderful..."
He Pingsheng laughed heartily, reached out and patted his son's shoulder, saying: "Yes, I have emerged from seclusion..."
"Seeing you in such a hurry, what matter has arisen?"
While speaking, He Pingsheng sat down beside Wen Wannan.
Wen Wannan said: "Lu Yu... Lu Yu's Dao Companion is a demon clan member, a dragon maiden of the White Dragon Clan!"
"Oh?" He Pingsheng asked: "When did this happen, how come I don't know?"
Wen Wannan gave He Pingsheng a white look, saying: "You are always either in seclusion or traveling; if this matter waited for your return to decide, the child would probably have already become anxious to death!"
"Hahaha..." He Pingsheng laughed heartily.
Wen Wannan continued: "The White Dragon Clan now faces some difficulties, wishing to ask our He family to help resolve karmic entanglements!"
Hearing this, He Pingsheng's heart instantly rose with wariness, and he asked, "How great a karmic entanglement, that it actually still requires our He family's help to resolve?"
"He Luyu, you're not young anymore either; you need to weigh matters carefully yourself!"
He Luyu said, "Father, the White Dragon Clan is a five-star clan, and moreover happens to be under our He family's jurisdiction; every year they pay tribute to us..."
"Their clan has now encountered peril; as the superior clan, shouldn't we help a bit?"
He Pingsheng glanced at Wen Buwan, "This complicated?"
"Is that so?"
Wen Buwan nodded, "Yes... the specifics, still let Luyu tell you!"
"Hmm..." He Luyu took a deep breath, then stepped forward a pace, sat before He Pingsheng and Wen Buwan, and said, "Father... Qingxi and I became Dao Companions very early on; there was no calculation in this, merely this time their clan's elders went to a certain Mystic Realm to seek treasure, and obtained a piece of Hongmeng Zijin-colored Divine Bone!"
"Then, the White Elephant Clan's God King came running over, saying this Divine Bone records their clan's inheritance, giving a three-day deadline to hand it over; if not handed over, they would directly trample the Dragon Clan!"
"So, that's why I sought Mother's help!"
"Two days have already passed since this!"
"Father... you must not turn a blind eye!"
He Pingsheng asked, "Have the White Dragon Clan's people come?"
What one fears is that others haven't even come seeking, yet one rushes up oneself.
This kind of thing absolutely cannot be done.
Moreover, if it involves too great a karmic entanglement, that also won't do.
"They've come, they've come... the White Dragon Clan's patriarch is waiting right outside our He family; Mother hasn't given word, so I also didn't dare let him in!"
"Let him in!" He Pingsheng waved his hand, "Go straight to the clan grand hall!"
"Wait a moment, I'll go shortly!"
"However, Father has made it clear to you... if the karmic entanglement within is too severe, when I stand by and watch, you must not act recklessly!"
"Okay, Father!" He Luyu left overjoyed.
Wen Buwan sighed a breath.
He Pingsheng, however, smiled, reached out and took Wen Buwan's hand, saying, "No need to sigh... the child has grown up, with more children come all sorts of troubles!"
"By rights, we shouldn't intervene in others' karmic entanglements!"
"But in this world, where is there such a good thing; all along, isn't everyone entangled in one giant karmic web?"
"Mm..." Wen Buwan said, "Anyway, I never want to give birth again; more children means more trouble caused for Big Brother!"
"Tianzhi and Yuhong, both are others reincarnated!"
Wen Buwan complained rarely.
