He thought tonight seemed to be the best time.

It just so happens that her parents and sister are all gathered together.

The man's gaze was intense. During the month that Song Tingwan had spent in Longyuan, she had long understood his thoughts, and now she looked at him with a smile.

"This cup is beautiful. Uncle, why don't you have a set of dragon cups made? They would be very beautiful too."

Baili Xijiang suddenly had a brilliant idea and spoke excitedly.

Qin Xi glared at him disdainfully, "I think you just want the Black Dragon Cup."

His little scheme was crystal clear.

Song Siyao and Wan Qiji looked at the exquisitely designed and ethereal cup without saying a word.

I can't understand how such an exquisite cup could be made.

They exchanged a glance and decided not to make things difficult for themselves.

After all, they even made the spirit flower very ugly.

These things that require aesthetic appreciation should be left to Song Tingwan and Shen Zhuochuan.

"Why not! From now on, we'll use the Magnolia and Black Dragon cups for tea and wine, and the Little Black and White Dragon cards made by our master himself!"

Forget about that set of wolf cards; Master kept it very well.

"You're dreaming, but it does sound like you're really enjoying yourself."

Qin Xi thought back to those days, and found them pleasant and enjoyable.

During their casual conversation, after a few rounds of drinks, everyone started asking about A Yao and Aunt Wu Shu's descent to the mortal realm.

The atmosphere was so good that Wu Shu couldn't help but drink a little more. Her eyes were filled with drunkenness as she rested her chin on her hand and looked at Song Chaoxuan's still refined face. She casually began to explain to the children.

"No matter how those hypocritical gods try to shirk their responsibilities, back then, Awan and Ayao's grandfather suppressed Xingyuan with his own body, and Ayao also made Xingyuan disappear. They are afraid of death and we owe them a debt, no matter the reason."

“Ayao and I told them that if they don’t repay their debts, they will incur karmic consequences. If they don’t pay, they can expect to face the retribution.”

Those who were afraid of death had no choice but to reluctantly agree to let them go down to the mortal realm to bring Song Chaoxuan back.

Song Chaoxuan followed his father to the mortal realm, but was left behind there, all because of the inaction of the divine realm at the time.

Therefore, he should rightfully return to the realm of the gods.

The divine realm reveres the power of merit and fears the concept of cause and effect most of all.

Everyone was taken aback by Lazy Yang's words.

Looking at her utterly shocked older sister, Song Siyao smiled silently, a slight smile playing on her lips.

Facing the smiling gazes from her younger sister and mother, Song Tingwan couldn't help but look at her father, who was even more dazed than herself.

"Father."

She called softly, her eyes and brows filled with joy.

Now, they can truly ascend in an orderly fashion.

"Great, really great."

His wife, daughters, and a group of younger relatives were all happy for him. Song Chaoxuan's throat tightened slightly, and he choked up a little.

"How long can Mother and Ayao stay in the mortal realm?" Song Tingwan suddenly remembered something.

"Three to five days at most." Wu Shu and her youngest daughter exchanged a glance, the mother and daughter estimating the time.

She nodded thoughtfully.

It's alright, we should have enough time to make a trip to the Demon Realm.

"Ah, then Master and his family will ascend first, so we'll have to work harder." Baili Xijiang said with some worry.

What is he going to do?

I always feel like I'm still a long way from ascension.

Even though... he was already able to refine ninth-grade pills.

Qin Xi was also troubled.

However, she did have a flash of inspiration.

Wan'er used the Dao of the Common People and the divine elixir to save the world and prove her Dao.

Her cultivation level is insufficient; if she could find her own path... she should be able to ascend as well.

Qin Xi lowered her eyes in confusion, wondering what her path was.

"You all do your best. I'm going to ascend with Wan'er and the others first."

Shen Zhuochuan, with a faint smile playing on his lips, said something that shocked them.

"Uncle! Didn't you just recover recently?" Baili Xijiang asked incredulously.

Song Tingwan calmly held the magnolia wine glass and took a small sip.

As Song Siyao watched them accuse Shen Zhuochuan, she chuckled softly to her sister, "It's because he can't bear to part with his sister, isn't it?"

In private, he must have been determined to find every possible way to improve his skills.

Song Tingwan nodded to her younger sister, then looked at Aji, who was also drinking with his eyes down.

"Aji should be just a little short as well."

This afternoon, the sparring session between A Yao and her was clearly meant to help him understand.

She raised her eyebrows at her sister playfully, but Song Siyao silently turned her head away, denying it.

But by default.

After chatting and laughing with her younger sister, Song Tingwan looked at her little apprentice and Qin Yuanyuan with a slight worry.

They've all ascended to immortality, what will happen to the remaining two?

Moments later, Wanqiji, who was about to ascend to immortality, was again accused by his companions.

Baili Xijiang and Qin Xi were left looking at each other in bewilderment.

"The two of us..."

"It's alright, you go ahead, Baili and I won't keep you waiting too long."

Baili Xijiang was stunned, but Qin Xi earnestly assured them.

"Don't worry, you don't need to stay any longer for us."

Baili Xijiang silently took a sip of wine, thinking that even he himself was unsure, yet Qin Yuanyuan had dragged him in with her.

But after experiencing a major ordeal, this carefree person finally matured a little.

He smiled and raised his glass to everyone, "Yes, if you trust the two of us, we'll make it work."

"I have my master's alchemy notes, and Qin Yuanyuan is already able to forge divine artifacts, so I certainly won't keep you waiting too long!"

Everyone raised their glasses and laughed in unison to encourage them.

Towards the end of the meal, Song Tingwan suddenly brought up the promise she had made to Aji that they would all go to the Demon Realm together.

Everyone suddenly remembered the agreement they had made before the great calamity struck.

The next day.

Song Chaoxuan and Wu Shu saw the younger generation off together and returned to the Magnolia Courtyard side by side.

They talked about what had happened to each of them all night, but it seemed like they hadn't said enough. Just then, the younger generation went off to play, and they were able to continue.
