Yu Qinghan greatly agreed with Zhao Huai’s view, and directly echoed: “My husband’s perspective is consistent with mine. The real reason why I attacked Yan Country back then was that I couldn’t stand the princes fighting and the common people suffering. If there could be no war and the world could be unified, that would be the best solution.”

Zhao Huai naturally knew the situation in the last years of Yan Country.

After the outbreak of famine and the war, countless bones and hell on earth prevailed among people.

“If the people prosper, they suffer; if they perish, they suffer. I hope this situation will not resurface.”

Zhao Huai said with a bitter smile.

Yu Qinghan’s face showed her heartache: “I understand the logic, but I’m thinking, is this responsibility too overwhelming for Ping’an?”

Zhao Huai sighed: “There’s no other way. Since he’s our son, all we can do is make the burden a bit lighter when he finally shoulders it.”

As long as the two of them work together, the Mortal World will inevitably not be in chaos.

“Speaking of which, the Western State’s Bewitched Shenluo Country sent an emissary to ally with me. It’s been quite a while since then.”

Zhao Huai suddenly remembered that he still had business left unfinished.

Yu Qinghan stared with her phoenix eyes, frowned, and said with displeasure:

“An alliance? Who do they want to kill?”

Zhao Huai smiled helplessly: “Madam, rest assured, I haven’t agreed yet. Shenluo has unified major Western countries and has developed an impressive force, so we absolutely cannot offend them. But now it seems we’ve already offended them.”

He really had stood up the Princess of Shenluo. During his time in the Spiritual Mountains, half a month had passed.

Had the Shenluo Princess already returned?

Yu Qinghan was indifferent: “It’s just as well we offended them. A country plagued by cults like this doesn’t seem reliable. During my father’s reign, Shenluo was already eyeing us. This time they tried to ally with you, they might want to divide the territory of Central State.”

“I’ve thought about this as well, so I didn’t agree. Speaking of which, what’s the current situation with the Northern Wolf Empire in the north? When can the Ten States of the North be reclaimed?”

Facing Zhao Huai’s question, Yu Qinghan’s frustration emerged, and she pursed her lips: “Since the Northern Wolf took over the Ten States, and after I lost a battle, they’ve been holding on at home, not sending troops out, and cultivating wasteland. It seems there’s no intention of fighting for the time being. I’m afraid it’s hard to reclaim the Ten States.”

Zhao Huai nodded lightly: “They are probably waiting for the right opportunity. If another great war breaks out, they may jump out again.”

“Husband, how did you manage to escape from Yan City back then, and how did you make your way to the Imperial Palace? Can you tell me more about it?” Yu Qinghan was full of curiosity.

“Well, those are some unbearable memories of the past.” Zhao Huai’s smile froze as he recalled some unhappy memories.

“Tell me, I want to hear more about my husband’s stories. You’ve never mentioned them before.”

“Alright then…”

So, the two talked like this, one after the other.

They talked about experiences they had never mentioned before.

From time to time, laughter rang out.

Even when Jiang Xuan put a large bowl on the table and came in to call the couple, they didn’t notice.

Jiang Xuan looked at the two helplessly and interrupted: “The soup is ready, it’s time to feed the children. If you want some, you can go get a bowl.”

“Thank you, Senior Sister.”

Yu Qinghan bowed to Jiang Xuan with a charming smile.

“We are sect sisters and brothers, what’s there to thank for?”

Jiang Xuan walked between the two, skillfully picking up both children and saying as they walked:

“Besides, I really love these two children.”

Zhao Huai glanced at Jiang Xuan, who was walking out wearing a white skirt and full of immortal aura, and asked curiously:

“Did your Senior Sister experience any unhappy events in her past?”

Yu Qinghan thoughtfully said: “It seems that when she was young, she had an unpleasant experience with a Senior Brother, and since then, she has never again been involved with men.”

“No wonder…”

“Can you not gossip so loudly? I’m not deaf.”

At this moment, a cold warning voice came from outside the house.

Zhao Huai and Yu Qinghan looked at each other, and then they both burst out laughing.

On the wooden table.

There was a bowl of steaming fish soup, sprinkled with green onions, looking even more delicious.

Additionally, there was a stack of crabs, which looked quite large, about the size of two fists.

Jiang Xuan took a jar of wine from behind the water tank, and poured three bowls for Zhao Huai and Yu Qinghan who were opposite her.

“Swish!”

Zhao Huai picked up the wine bowl, looked at the clear wine, sniffed it, took a sip, and couldn’t help but exclaim:

“What a mellow rice wine, the taste is very refreshing, slightly sweet and long-lasting, it’s very delicious.”Jiang Xuan also poured herself a drink, raised her bowl, and said lightly: “This wine, I brewed it myself.”

“The ingredients may not be the best, but I used top-quality spiritual rice and fermented it for several decades.”

After saying that, she drained the wine in front of her.

Seeing this, Zhao Huai looked very surprised.

He didn’t expect that this celestial-looking woman in a white skirt would have such a bold side.

It seemed that she must have drunk a lot in private.

“Cheers!”

Zhao Huai didn’t hesitate and followed suit.

Yu Qinghan, on the other hand, was using a spoon to feed Zhao Ping’an and Zhao Ruyue fish soup.

After three rounds of drinks, Jiang Xuan’s face turned red, obviously intoxicated, and she didn’t use any magic power to sober herself up.

Zhao Huai knew that she wasn’t good at drinking and that she was forcing herself to drink.

Even though it was just rice wine.

Jiang Xuan glanced at Zhao Huai and then at Yu Qinghan, and there was an indescribable envy deep within her eyes.

She finally fixed her gaze on Zhao Huai and said,

“My name is Jiang Xuan. I am Qinghan’s senior sister. I have watched her grow up. She has been in the sect for eight years, and I have watched her for half a year. So, I hope you will treat her well in the future and not be a flirtatious man. I have a gentle personality and a clean heart. There’s nothing special about me, except that I hate fickle men.” “Senior Jiang, don’t worry. I, Zhao Huai, am not that kind of person.” Zhao Huai clenched his fist and spoke solemnly.

Although this woman appeared to be very young, she was actually over two hundred years old.

She was definitely a senior.

Jiang Xuan nodded with satisfaction, casting a look of appraisal and appreciation through her long eyelashes.

“Eighth stage in the Golden Core Realm, you have potential. Unfortunately, the world cannot accommodate a ninth-stage Golden Core cultivator. If you have a chance to go to other realms, perhaps you could try.”

Zhao Huai was startled and hurriedly asked, “Does Senior know how to break through to the ninth Golden Core stage or how to go to other worlds?”

Jiang Xuan leaned on the table, her hair slightly messy, propping her head with both jade hands, and squinted, “This is not a secret.”

“The most direct way to go to other worlds is to ascend. Ascension allows you to travel freely to various realms.”

“But as far as things stand, it’s unlikely because the Immortal World has long been sealed off. Over the past hundred years, I’ve heard many rumors- -most people think it’s a means for immortals to protect the Immortal World from being invaded by other worlds. In my opinion, it’s just delaying the arrival of disaster.”

“Although the world is relatively safe now, the strength of cultivators has also weakened. If one day a wolf enters the flock of sheep, it will be a disaster for everyone.”

Upon hearing this, Zhao Huai fell silent.

Jiang Xuan continued, “Want to break through to the ninth Golden Core stage? Simple. Just smash the seal with your ancestral weapon. However, I warn you that it’s best not to do this. Because if you can get out, it means others can come in as well.”

After dinner.

At the lakeside of Secular Immortal Peak.

Zhao Huai and Yu Qinghan leaned against each other, lying on the trunk of a large tree.

Facing the pleasant rural scenery, Zhao Huai was thinking about something else.

“Husband, are you still thinking about what Senior Sister said?”

Yu Qinghan glanced at Jiang Xuan, who was swaying on a swing, and turned back to smile at Zhao Huai.

“Yeah, I’m not just thinking about breaking through to the ninth Golden Core stage, I’m also wondering what will happen in the future, and how I can survive in this Great Epoch.” Zhao Huai sighed.

“So, what do you plan to do?” Zhao Huai thought for a moment before saying,

“I plan to go to the Sword Pavilion.”

“Oh?”

Zhao Huai explained, “The Spiritual Mountain Blessed Land is full of opportunities. Since I’ve come to the Spiritual Mountain, I might as well seize more chances and increase my strength as much as possible.”

After saying that, he looked at the tranquil mountain stream, the white lakeside, and the simple yet solid thatched cottage, and sighed:

“I really want to live in this place for hundreds of years.”

PS: First, let me declare that I’m still here, alive, and not using a ghostwriter. It’s just that the upcoming plot is important and needs polishing and careful planning, so it will be a bit slower..
