Dawn broke, and a streak of morning glow awakened the earth from eternal night, infusing all living things with vitality.
The scenery of Chengsheng Mountain was already breathtaking, but now with the rise of the morning glow, it gained an additional touch of ethereal beauty.
Atop Chengdao Peak, clad in white, the Sword Immortal stood tall, overlooking the vast mountains and rivers, gazing at the beautiful sunrise, her red lips slightly parting:
“Feasting on the six energies and drinking the misty vapors, I rinse my mouth with pure yang and embrace the morning glow.”
Upon awakening, thinking about the things Han Li did to her last night, and the dreams she had, the Sword Immortal felt she needed some time to stay calm, so she ran here.
She gazed absently at the morning glow, reflecting on all that had transpired with Han Li, sighing inwardly, never having imagined herself being so intimate with a man.
It seemed that her subconscious had already accepted the fact, but her rationality kept her alert. The broken barriers were hard to restore, and she needed to be cautious.
At that moment, Jiang Baiye sensed someone approaching. She didn’t turn around, continuing to admire the morning glow as if it could calm her spirit.
“Jiang Baiye?”
Lu Tianxiang walked over, looking at the fairy with the Divine Sword on her back, her tone tinged with uncertainty.
Last night, Han Li had informed her that one of his sisters had arrived, and he wouldn’t be able to keep her company temporarily. Lu Tianxiang felt complicated but said nothing.
She knew this would happen sooner or later, that Han Li wouldn’t have only her as a wife, but she hadn’t expected it to be so soon.
Lu Tianxiang thought it was nice of Han Li to have told her in advance; it meant he had her in his heart and respected her, not abandoning her for a new love. This eased some of the knots in Lu Tianxiang’s heart.
Earlier when she saw someone flying to the summit, and it wasn’t one of Han Li’s concubines, Lu Tianxiang guessed it might be Han Li’s new wife and decided to see who it was.
Currently, Han Li had only her as his wife, the others were concubines. This woman, being given the status of a wife by Han Li, clearly was extraordinary.
Otherwise, if Han Li were to marry a beauty fit only to be a concubine as his wife, not only would Lu Tianxiang be displeased, but the other concubines wouldn’t be happy either. Why should they?
Lu Tianxiang felt she might know her.
Though the Daqian Empire was vast, there weren’t many female cultivators who had both beauty and talent, and they were all quite famous. Lu Tianxiang had looked into this long ago.
Upon seeing the person, Lu Tianxiang was somewhat surprised. Could this really be the Sword Immortal, whose beauty is renowned throughout the three states of Leizhou, Qingzhou, and Huozhou, acclaimed as the supreme beauty of the three states?
But when had Han Li ever intersected paths with Jiang Baiye?
Han Li used to be the type of person who lived a “secluded life in a small tower, indifferent to the changes of spring, summer, autumn, and winter,” keeping his cultivation deeply concealed, rarely venturing out for trials, and seldom interacting with other cultivators.
Jiang Baiye, on the other hand, was the favored daughter of the Canghai Sect, the likely next sect leader, who had reached the God Refining Realm early on, her name known far and wide across the entire Qian Dynasty.
Jiang Baiye was indifferent to suitors, devoted to cultivation, rumored to be a woman who preferred the company of her own gender, entangled in an unclear relationship with Yun Miaoyi of the Yinyang Sect.
Normally, Han Li and Jiang Baiye would not have known each other, but here Jiang Baiye stood before her, so Lu Tianxiang was sure she hadn’t mistaken her identity.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind, and she realized the connection between Han Li and Jiang Baiye.
The Body-Cultivating Furnace!
She had seen Han Li use the Body-Cultivating Furnace, which now served as the core of Chengsheng Mountain’s Formation, and Han Li had even used this treasure to heal her wounds before.
After learning about the power of this artifact, Lu Tianxiang understood why the Canghai Sect valued it so much as a legacy treasure; its various powers were indeed very suitable for sect inheritance.
With the Body-Cultivating Furnace, the Canghai Sect was unshakable. Even if the Daqian Empire coveted it, they wouldn’t dare to seize it by force. What would the other sects think?
After the Loss of the Body-Cultivating Furnace, Jiang Baiye was responsible for its retrieval. She had been to Leizhou before, and Lu Tianxiang guessed that the intersection between Jiang Baiye and Han Li must have started there.
Han Li was known for his lustful nature; the beauty of Jiang Baiye, the supreme beauty of the three states, was not something Han Li would easily let go of.
Seeing it was Jiang Baiye, Lu Tianxiang felt much more balanced inside. Jiang Baiye surely wasn’t with Han Li of her own free will, becoming his wife; she had to be like Lu Tianxiang, making a reluctant choice out of helplessness.
Although Jiang Baiye’s cultivation and talent were somewhat inferior to her own, her appearance, aura, and figure were on par with Lu Tianxiang, and much higher than Han Li’s other concubines. Indeed, she had the qualifications to be Han Li’s wife, and women like Qiu Yueyao and Li Mingmeng would not be discontent.
“Wusheng Old Mother, you’re really here,”
Jiang Baiye turned around, her eyes lighting up at the stunningly beautiful woman behind her and quickly recognizing her identity.
The true face of Wusheng Old Mother was a secret to ordinary cultivators, but Jiang Baiye was no ordinary cultivator; she had long since seen a portrait of Wusheng Old Mother.
She also knew that the mysterious Great Grandmaster was Han Li, and that Wusheng Old Mother had been rescued by Han Li; her appearance here was not strange.
Like Lu Tianxiang, Jiang Baiye also believed Han Li would not let go of a woman with peerless beauty, just as she herself had fallen into Han Li’s Devil’s Palm.
It was no wonder that bastard Han Li took a wife recently; it seemed that it was indeed Wusheng Old Mother, and surely, she was qualified to be Han Li’s wife.
Lu Tianxiang’s pupils narrowed slightly; upon their first meeting, it seemed she was slightly at a disadvantage.
Previously, she did not know Han Li’s new wife was Jiang Baiye, but Jiang Baiye seemed to have known long ago that she had fallen into Han Li’s hands.
And while her own cultivation was still only unsealed to the Pihai Realm, Jiang
Baiye’s cultivation had not been sealed and remained at the God Refining Realm. The situation seemed different from what she had expected.. Could it be that Jiang Baiye wasn’t captured by Han Li?
