654 An old friend comes

Ji Xixi pondered for a moment, seemingly thinking, and said softly, "This kind of change seems to have happened before. In my vague memory, the spiritual energy back then was several times more concentrated than it is now, and spiritual herbs were common on the ground, with a hundred years being a normal occurrence."

But later, for some unknown reason, it suddenly began to weaken, and the sacred land also began to weaken.

I remember it was the same; the people of the capital were in a state of confusion, filled with suspicion and constant warfare, and ultimately, the world changed.

Ji Xixi nodded gently and said softly, "I've noticed some subtle changes recently. In some peach-growing areas in the distance, the spiritual energy seems to be getting weaker."

The spiritual energy within the sacred ground hadn't diminished in the slightest, and I hadn't noticed it much. But after carefully observing it over the past few days, I've realized that the spiritual energy around me does seem to have weakened.

His tone carried a hint of regret, as if he were filled with nostalgia for that era brimming with spiritual energy.

Herbs are everywhere, but only thousand-year-old or ten-thousand-year-old ginseng is truly precious, and even one hundred thousand-year-old ginseng is the most valuable of all. A single pill can bring the dead back to life and extend one's life by a hundred or a thousand years.

He continued, "My royal city has disappeared into the past. In recent days, I have often opened ancient books to search for it, but I can't find any records of it. It's as if it never existed."

And I don't even know what era I belong to; it feels like just yesterday, yet I also don't know where I am.

Feeling the two women's arms around his waist, he chuckled softly and continued...

If this happens again, then the spiritual energy in the sacred land should begin to weaken.

If that's the case, even the major sects won't be spared, though their spirit-gathering arrays will help slow the damage down.

Upon hearing the hint of homelessness in Ji Xixi's words, Yun Su and Yun Qing felt a strange mix of emotions, a mixture of worry and sympathy.

He couldn't help but gently embrace Ji Xixi's beautiful, slender waist, delicate yet supple, draped in a thin gauze dress, appearing both ethereal and clear.

With a smooth and delicate texture like solidified cream, Yun Su and Yun Qing were instantly captivated by the beauty of the world, forgetting all about time.

Sensing their movements, she didn't wake them, but instead, like a sweet older sister, quietly embraced the two stunningly beautiful women.

In the blink of an eye, perhaps only the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Yun Su and Yun Qing slowly awoke and softly said, "Thank you, sister."

Ji Xixi chuckled softly and said in a low voice, "I only recently learned about the origin of Shenlang Spiritual Land. There's no need to think too much about it, after all, the changes in spiritual lands have their own rules."

I didn't initially notice that the spiritual energy in the distance was thinning.

Alterations in the earth's ley lines and shifts in spiritual energy have occurred in one or two places throughout history, but without causing significant disruption.

He continued, "Such a large-scale change in the earth's veins has far-reaching effects. Fortunately, Sister Qianqian is here, so there shouldn't be too many changes."

If the changes in the spiritual land are indeed this widespread, the subsequent impact will likely spread rapidly.

With a slight smile, she spoke in a low voice, her words revealing composure and calmness, "If other spiritual lands are truly like this, it would also be an opportunity for us."

He shook his head slightly, seemingly unconcerned, thinking to himself, 'Besides, I don't care much about the rise and fall of other aristocratic families and sects either.'

As long as it concerns Shen Lang, everything else is dispensable.

Gently holding Yun Su and Yun Qing around the waist, he whispered, "Sister Su and Sister Qing should focus their energy on cultivating in the spiritual land during this time. Such rich spiritual energy should not be wasted."

I will be going into seclusion to cultivate for a while.

Thinking of the lovely Wanqing and Rourou, Ji Xixi couldn't help but smile gently. The two of them had been with her for a long time and were like family.

Ji Xixi said softly, "Wanqing and Rourou are the same. During this time, I've also told them not to think about anything else and to focus on their cultivation. We'll see how things go in a few days."

Her words revealed her care and love for Wanqing, Rourou, and Yunsu, as well as her decisiveness and wisdom.

In times when spiritual energy can fluctuate, cultivation becomes the most important thing. Only by improving one's strength can one better cope with changes.

Yun Su and Yun Qing both nodded in agreement.

Yun Su said softly, "In that case, Shen Lang will be all alone." Thinking of this, she couldn't help but chuckle softly.

Ji Xixi smiled gently and said softly, "Yes, I'm sure you've had a hard time these past few days, Chen Lang."

All three of them couldn't help but smile.

He Chen walked slowly, his steps leisurely. He couldn't help but think that this place was truly like a paradise, where one could simply rest and sleep without having to worry about the mundane necessities of life.

No matter how hard life is outside, I can always eat my fill and eat well. For a moment, I couldn't help but drift off into thought.

Walking slowly, the other women were nowhere to be seen, presumably they had all gone to cultivate diligently, leaving the entire place empty and quiet.

He Chen stood under the peach tree, took a deep breath, and slowly activated his mental cultivation technique, preparing to practice.

Instantly, a powerful aura emanated from him, with dragons and tigers roaring together and rays of light shining brightly. It was as if the forms of dragons and tigers were appearing and disappearing around him, instantly transforming into dragons and tigers coiled around him.

Surrounded by lightning, he seemed to be the god of thunder descending, and flames burst forth from nowhere, like a phoenix rising from the ashes, blazing and dazzling.

The surrounding flowers, plants, and trees bowed their heads in the face of this powerful aura, as if they were afraid that their lives were about to end.

He Chen also realized that his aura was too strong, so he gently restrained it, hiding the dragon, tiger, thunder, and flames within his body and returning to calm.

In a flash, a figure appeared behind Ji Xixi, Yun Su, and Yun Qing, gently embracing them.

Xixi's long hair cascaded down her back, her face radiant with happiness and tenderness. She leaned gently against her lover's chest and whispered, "I was just talking about you with my two sisters."

We're about to go to the Spirit Land for secluded cultivation. If Shen Lang misses us, he can come find us there, but please remember not to disturb us.

As she spoke, Ji Xixi chuckled softly, her laughter as clear and melodious as silver bells, echoing beneath the peach tree.

Yun Su and Yun Qing couldn't help but chuckle to themselves, watching their lovers laugh happily.

Looking at their playful and adorable appearance, He Chen couldn't help but smile indulgently!

He couldn't help but tighten his grip slightly, holding her tightly in his arms.

Time passed, and He Chen gently picked up the three of them, preparing to wash up.

Yun Su heard a soft knocking sound outside the outer courtyard gate.

Yun Su smiled gently and slowly walked away.

The three women exchanged curious glances, and after a moment, they heard the butler's voice, "Madam, three young ladies outside request an audience. They say they are old friends of yours and have come from the capital."
