After chatting casually with Luo Xiwen for a few moments, Su Chen had to leave because she was indeed busy today!
With no other choice, Su Chen returned to his office again and casually picked up a couple of magazines to enjoy.
After finishing his reading, he started playing a game of matching tiles!
At first, he was quite interested, but after playing for about an hour, he found it boring. With nothing left to do, he drove back to the villa.
When he returned to the villa, all the ladies were still cultivating, so Su Chen did not disturb them. He then went back to his room and started his own cultivation!
His current focus, of course, was on cultivating the "Nine Yang Divine Technique," hoping to break through to the Kaiyuan Late Stage as soon as possible!
He hasn't yet been able to access the later content of the "Nine Yang Divine Technique," so he doesn't know what realm is beyond the Condensation Pill Realm. He estimates that he will have to break through to the Condensation Pill Realm to unlock the subsequent content.
However, there might be an opportunity to ask others about what lies beyond the Condensation Pill Realm; perhaps someone knows!
Though he doesn't know what it is, it must certainly be another level of existence!
Deep within a mysterious mountain range in Huaxia, the area is shrouded in mist all day, like a fairyland!
In this mist, there stands a complex of buildings, consisting of pavilions and towers, looking exceedingly beautiful!
This is the location of Tianyin Palace!
At this moment, in one of the halls of the pavilion, a woman in a dark green long dress is seated at the top. Her temperament is ethereal; though middle-aged, she hardly appears so.
Behind her stands a woman in her thirties, looking like a maid with a serene demeanor!
Seated below her is a middle-aged man who, despite his restrained presence, exudes an indescribable sense of authority, as if it is innate!
"Palace Master Jiang, your Tianyin Palace has always been on good terms with my Hua Family. My Qingyang and Miss Dugu have known each other since childhood, and are both ranked among the top two of the Four Great Talents!"
The middle-aged man below took a sip of tea, then put down the cup and said:
"In terms of appearance, martial arts cultivation, family background, and all other aspects, the two are a perfect match, so I hope Pavilion Master Jiang can agree to this matter!"
The woman at the top nods slightly and smiles:
"Yes, the two indeed make a good pair, and I am delighted to see this happen..."
As she says this, she suddenly notices a gaze from the maid beside her, and continues:
"However, these are matters concerning the young people themselves; it depends on whether they have the fate together."
"But Palace Master Jiang, you are certainly the Palace Master of Tianyin Palace. If you support this, Dugu Mingyue will likely listen to you!"
The middle-aged man responds.
"I have always cared deeply for Mingyue and regard her as a daughter, so I can talk to her about this, but ultimately it's up to Mingyue's own decision."
"Naturally, naturally."
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man quickly says:
"In that case, I shall take my leave."
"Bai Lan, escort the Hua Family Head."
The woman instructs the maid beside her.
The maid immediately responds with "Yes," and then walks forward.
"No need, please remain!"
The middle-aged man hurriedly waves his hand.
But the maid, Bai Lan, still approaches, smiles, and says:
"Hua Family Head, please!"
The middle-aged man says, then turns to walk towards the door.
The maid named Bai Lan escorts him to the door and then returns.
"Bai Lan, what did you mean by signaling me not to speak earlier?"
When she returns to the woman's side, the woman curiously asks.
"Palace Master, do you really want to marry Miss Mingyue to the Hua Family?"
"Why not? Is there something wrong?"
The woman smiles lightly and says:
"The Hua Family Head did have some reasonable points just now!"
Upon hearing this, the maid Bai Lan hesitates, showing a hint of uncertainty.
"What's the matter? Speak your mind!"
The woman smiles and encourages.
Hearing this, the maid thinks for a moment and says:
"I heard from Han Xiang that for the past few months, Miss has been in Yandu, and seems to..."
The woman asks, looking at the maid, intrigued.
The maid named Bai Lan thinks and says:
"Seems to be very close to a young man!"
The woman's eyes suddenly brighten at these words.
"Han Xiang stays by Miss's side, so it's likely not untrue!"
The maid Bai Lan hesitates for a moment and says:
"So, if Miss really..., then the Hua Family..."
"The Hua Family's matter is not urgent; what about that man?"
The woman asks with interest.
"I don't know the specifics, maybe let Han Xiang report to you?"
"No need for now. Han Xiang will be returning shortly, and I'll ask her myself then."
The woman waves her hand dismissively.
The maid responds, still somewhat uneasy, and adds:
"But the Hua Family..."
"Hmph, does the Hua Family really think I can decide for Mingyue?"
The woman says casually:
"If that girl doesn't want to, then she won't want to! It's the same regardless of who says it!"
The woman doesn't take the Hua Family matter seriously, instead murmuring to herself:
"Has that girl really found the person she's been looking for?"
Su Chen naturally doesn't know about the events at Tianyin Palace, and even if he did, he likely wouldn't care.
He emerged after cultivating for a few hours and happened to see Lan Xinyi and Qi Meng enjoying the hot springs, his eyes lit up instantly, and he turned back!
A minute later, he was back wearing swimming trunks, with a mischievous smile on his face!
Naturally, neither Qi Meng nor Lan Xinyi could escape the clutches of this fellow...
As usual, after a while, the two women left with blushing cheeks!
Before leaving, they naturally glared at him in annoyance!
Su Chen naturally ignored them, picked up a glass of red wine, and savored it leisurely...
After relaxing here for over half an hour, he got up and returned to his room, changed clothes, and continued his cultivation.
He cultivated until evening when Lin Ruoxue returned, then joined the women for dinner.
After dinner, the women naturally went on with their usual activities, doing whatever they wished.
Su Chen also drifted around for a while, and out of idle boredom, visited the annex to chat with Ouyang Jing and others.
Seeing that it was about time, he returned to his room in the villa and began studying the "Thousand Hand Seal."
Although he is currently focused on the "Nine Yang Divine Technique," he occasionally researches other techniques as well... Official source ıs novel※fire.net
(ps: 26 chapters have been updated, and four more chapters will be organized as soon as possible.
Moreover, regarding today's update, why did so many misunderstand it as yesterday?
Because it was mentioned early on the 22nd by Wind and Rain, announcing an update at noon, isn't it the 23rd today?
Perhaps Wind and Rain did not clarify enough! If it caused any inconvenience, apologies!)
