Seeing his serious expression, which seemed to indicate that he was somewhat angry, Chu and her sisters stuck out their tongues and dared not cause any more trouble.

Sang Qian and Zheng Dan didn't want to leave Zu An with the image of a shrew, so they naturally stopped their efforts.

Xie Daoyun, on the other hand, was somewhat dazed. She had been so focused on her elder brother that she had forgotten he had many female confidantes around him.

Last time I met Chu Chuyan, Pei Mianman, and Qiu Honglei, but this time it's someone else. It's making me feel so much pressure.

At this point, Zuan closed the door and then slowly recounted what had happened at Shadowmoon Lake.

"Ah?" The girls exclaimed in surprise, forgetting all about their jealousy and rivalry.

“Those Heart-Eating Spiders can inhabit human bodies, so you must be very careful and not get parasitized by them without knowing it,” Zuan said in a deep voice. “And you can’t go out into the wild to explore alone like before, because you don’t know if you’ll be unlucky enough to run into those demonic spatial rifts.”

"Ah, so from now on I can't go here or there, life is so boring." While everyone else was still full of worry, Chu Huanzhao was the most carefree.

Sang Qian said irritably, "This is a matter of life and death for the entire world, and you're still thinking about playing around?"

"You!" Chu Huanzhao was furious, but for a moment he didn't know how to refute her.

Chu Youzhao, who was standing to the side, couldn't stand it and spoke up for her: "What she said is the truth. There are many people in this world whose cultivation is not as good as Second Sister's. How could they think that far ahead?"

Zheng Dan raised an eyebrow, showing a sense of eagerness to try.

Seeing that the two sides were about to start arguing again, Zu'an had a headache: "Alright! The reaction of ordinary people is indeed a problem, but we can't worry about that for now. We just need to find those spatial rifts and get rid of the various demons that invaded earlier. As for the rest, we'll take it one step at a time."

"By the way, you should keep today's events to yourselves. Keep it a secret and don't tell anyone, or it will cause widespread panic." Zu'an knew that such instructions wouldn't be very effective. For example, if he told these close relatives when he got back, they would definitely remind their parents and siblings when they got back.

Those who were present at Shadowmoon Lake will also remind their family members when they return, so this matter is destined to be impossible to keep secret.

However, this kind of limited circulation is harmless, as it is confined to the upper-class circles in the capital.

By the time people outside find out the news, some time will have already passed.

This period of time is a good opportunity to give people a heads-up and prepare them for the end of the world, so they won't be overwhelmed if we tell them right away that it's the end of the world.

The girls readily agreed, and Zu An took the opportunity to remind them to cultivate diligently for the next period of time, as only by improving their own strength could they have a greater chance of survival in the upcoming changes.

Even the most carefree Chu Huanzhao nodded solemnly. Of course, if it were in the past, she would definitely lose interest at the mention of cultivation. After all, she had been a cultivation failure for so many years and really didn't want to be discouraged any further.

But this time, her brother-in-law painstakingly helped her expand her meridians, and with the presence of the Marrow Cleansing Pill, she immediately felt that she was capable again.

In particular, she has found that she can now understand many aspects of cultivation that she didn't understand before without a teacher. Moreover, her cultivation speed is much faster than before. She can feel a significant increase in her vital energy every hour of cultivation. You should know that in the past, her vital energy would not change even after a month of cultivation. With her impulsive nature, how could she have the patience to cultivate?

But now everything is different, and it's all thanks to my brother-in-law. He helped her grow up and made her life flow more smoothly. My brother-in-law is so good.

The women then reluctantly left. Zheng Dan and Sang Qian had originally wanted to have a private chat with Zu An, but under the watchful eyes of everyone, they felt too embarrassed to stay and had no choice but to leave to go back and be with Sisi.

The other women were all watching each other like thieves, perhaps only Murong Qinghe was a little more innocent.

Only after confirming that everyone had left did they breathe a sigh of relief.

Although she couldn't stay, the other fox spirits didn't stay either, so it wasn't unacceptable.

In the end, only Zuan was left feeling extremely depressed. It's true that three monks can't drink water. If things continue like this, things will probably get difficult in the future. His biggest mistake was probably letting them live together. He must learn from this experience in the future.

He went out and came to the lotus pond, intending to meditate and cultivate there. After absorbing the War Priest's cultivation, he felt uneasy inside and needed to completely refine it into his own.

It must be said that the place chosen by the old priest is truly rich in spiritual energy, making cultivation twice as effective with half the effort.

It's a pity that this once peaceful place has recently been invaded by a group of beautiful women. It's truly a sin. I must be more detached and less inclined to desire things in the future.

Today, I'll sit here on this giant rock by the lotus pond to meditate and cultivate, so that the disciples of the academy below can admire the glorious and majestic image of the new chief priest.

Even I'm diligently practicing so late at night, how can they not try their best?

He had just sat down when he suddenly saw the brightly lit palace in the distance and his heart stirred, thinking of his previous agreement with Bi Linglong.

Well, it's not too late to motivate the students again tomorrow.

With a thought, his figure vanished.

Meanwhile, in the Crown Princess's palace, Bi Linglong was sitting in front of the mirror, doing her makeup.

While combing her hair, Rong Mo asked in confusion, "Miss, you've just finished bathing, shouldn't you be in bed resting? Why are you suddenly getting ready? Are you going out so late?"

She couldn't help but admire her young mistress's stunning beauty. Her delicate skin, still damp from her bath, glowed enchantingly in the candlelight. Her skin was truly enviable.
