Time flies, and a year has passed in the blink of an eye.
"Father, Father..."
Inside the Seven-Colored Sacred Monarch Rock and the Langhuan Blessed Cave, Su Yunying held her two one-year-old children, a hundred paces away from Shen Zhao inside.
The two children were well-behaved and adorable, but when they saw Shen Zhao, they couldn't help but bar their teeth and claws.
"Yan'er, Linghuan, wait a little longer for Daddy. Daddy wants to hug you both personally."
"Father, Father..."
The two children immediately burst into laughter.
Su Yunying smiled, then instructed Ji Bingyan to take the two children away and hand them over to Yin Chaomu. She then sat alone at the cave entrance and chatted with Shen Zhao about everyday matters.
"Sister Song sent word that she has summoned her brother back to the court and arranged the regency process. He will be moving to the Seven-Colored Holy Monarch Rock soon."
"And Sister Mu is already teaching Miss Lu how to govern. I estimate that in a few months, once she is familiar with the rules of the court, she will also come to Nanhe to be stationed with us permanently."
"By the way, Sister Jiang wrote that everything has been settled in Yaochi Holy Land. When everyone arrives, it will be very lively here."
"Oh, and also, the Sword Ancestor said he would go back to the Northern Region to pay tribute to the people of the former dynasty who were persecuted by evil. After fulfilling his wish, he will come to reunite with us."
"Furthermore, Master Fahai spread Buddhism in the Western Regions and has become a great monk of his generation."
"My eldest brother and his two wives went on a trip to explore the mountains and rivers. Their child was born and is very cute."
Listening to Su Yunying recount the situations of her close friends one by one, Shen Zhao smiled with relief:
"After experiencing all these things, I realized what is most important: family."
Su Yunying paused and then said, "Oh, right, there's one more thing, it's about Yu Xiyan."
Upon hearing the name again, Shen Zhao remained calm and unmoved.
"She left, and before she left, she passed on all her cultivation to me and told me..."
"My life has been filled with sins; I have hurt too many people. I must spend the rest of my life repenting for the sins of my past life."
Shen Zhao sighed softly: "Do you know where she went?"
Su Yunying shook her head: "No, she said she would go to a place to completely cleanse her sins."
I will only return after my soul is completely purified, and perhaps I will never return again.
Shen Zhao nodded silently, without saying anything more.
Perhaps this is the best outcome for Yu Xiyan.
It's easy to kill someone, but the key is whether they can recognize their mistakes and repent before they die.
Su Yunying smiled faintly: "Chen Lang, I have no regrets about meeting, knowing and loving you in this life."
Shen Zhao smiled back: "Me too, with you by my side, I have no regrets in this life."
"Then, when can you get rid of the resentment in your body?"
"It will be soon, that day won't be long."
Upon hearing this, Su Yunying stood up and said, "Okay, it's time to feed the baby."
"Shen Lang, if you're going to recover, remember to help me, okay? This swelling is really uncomfortable."
Upon hearing this, Shen Zhao immediately smiled knowingly and watched Su Yunying leave.
"Three more days. After three days, I will be free."
Shen Zhao muttered to himself, then fell asleep.
As it turned out, Ji Bingyan overheard these words.
"Three days later? Okay, I understand."
Having made up her mind, Ji Bingyan immediately ran ten miles away and casually took out a communication stone: "Empress Luo,"
"My lord will be free in three days. Success or failure hinges on this. We must act quickly before Empress Song and Empress Mu arrive."
Soon, the communication stone responded: "Okay, I'll be there soon. You should be ready, right?"
"The potion I personally concocted can make a mammoth crave more than it can handle with just one drop."
"Just to be on the safe side, I have to bring the Immortal Binding Rope from the Dao Domain. I can't miss this opportunity no matter what."
"Dear sister, you must take good care of me afterwards."
"Don't worry, little sister, I value relationships the most."
After hanging up the communication stone, Ji Bingyan straightened her clothes, turned around and looked in the direction of Langhuan Blessing Cave, revealing a lovesick look in her eyes.
"My lord, I'm coming..."
...
On the third day, near midnight, Shen Zhao closed his eyes and focused his mind, losing all six senses, and tried his best to merge the resentment in his body with the Great Dao.
After half a year of contemplation, Shen Zhao had come to understand the true meaning of the Great Dao and no longer rejected these external forces.
"Evil and resentment are both part of the Great Dao. Rejecting them will only lead to an imbalance of Yin and Yang and disorder."
"Integration and elimination, returning to the origin, is the true path."
As the power of the Great Dao gradually circulated within his body, the resentment lines on Shen Zhao's face finally began to fade.
Finally, at the stroke of midnight, the resentment marks vanished instantly.
"call--"
When she opened her eyes again and exhaled a long breath, Shen Zhao felt a sense of relief throughout her body.
The resentment has been dissolved and eliminated, so there is no longer any need to worry about it affecting other innocent people and things.
"If this power becomes unbalanced, it could destroy a world. We should seal ourselves off for safety."
Thinking of this, Shen Zhao reversed the flow of Qi within his body to reverse the flow of Dao source.
Little did they know, two furtive figures were quietly approaching outside the Langhuan Blessing Cave.
"Sister Luo, you must not go back on your promise to me."
"Don't worry, I'm old enough to be your ancestor. If you don't believe me, don't you believe your ancestors?"
"Well, that's true, but why do I always feel like you're taking advantage of me?"
"Don't worry about these details. After tonight, we'll rise to great heights and never have to put up with their attitude again."
"But isn't this going too far?"
"Women always suffer in these kinds of situations, he'll be ecstatic."
