"Your Majesty, a calamity has struck. Although it is a natural phenomenon, I fear the people..."
In the main hall, a close attendant lowered his head.
Wu Xiyu walked to the window and looked at the few scattered lights in the endless darkness.
He put his hands behind his back and issued an edict of self-reproach, followed by prayers and sacrifices.
"yes."
...
"This is... power!"
A sword appeared in the void, emitting a moon-like white light in the darkness, and then fell into the stars.
Li Mingke gripped the sword hilt with one hand and the scabbard with the other.
She took a deep breath.
"A few years, a dream of three lifetimes, a cool autumn in June."
Click.
The sword sheath is separated.
"With the bright moon in my heart, I point to the twin stars, facing each other in the darkness."
bass--
The sword is drawn!
rustling...
Several sword lights shone brightly in the darkness, and the woman's robes fluttered, her sword dance was even more beautiful than a dance.
“Shattered jade…”
She gently called to her sword, and the blade shone brightly, responding enthusiastically to its master.
She finally drew the sword!
She placed her finger on the sword's edge, and instantly a small, blood-red gash appeared, with blood slowly dripping down the blade.
"Remember your master, Broken Jade!"
She is not Lin Banjian, she is Li Mingke!
Even broken jade is not a pearl tossed in the wind!
Ring ring—
In the blink of an eye, Li Mingke's cultivation level had increased by more than half again!
"Man and sword become one!"
The shattered jade hovered above Li Mingke's head and gradually disappeared, replaced by a dazzling light emanating from Li Mingke's body.
She slowly rose into the air; in the endless darkness, she was the only light.
Everything in the world has its own way.
Laughing at the many autumns that have passed in this world.
Travel the world as you please.
The Great Way is without basis, yet it is also free.
She touched the ground with her toes, opened her arms, and the wind rushed towards her from all directions, as if all things in the world were responding to her.
Soon, the eclipse gradually receded, sunlight gradually reappeared, and the world was bright again. The sun returned to its normal state, the spectacle had passed, and the earth was bathed in light, with all things shining.
Her clothes fell naturally as she pulled her arms back.
Everywhere you look, there is a thriving scene.
"That's about right..."
With a flick of her finger, the giant tree collapsed instantly with a loud "boom".
All was silent.
Li Jianshi emerged from the shadows.
"good."
"Grandpa."
She bowed and paid her respects solemnly.
"I have nothing more to teach you. Go, do what you want to do."
The wind tousled Li Mingke's hair, but her eyes held a resolute determination.
"yes!"
Let her write her own life story!
As soon as Li Mingke arrived at the front hall, he immediately felt the oppressive atmosphere.
She quickly understood.
"Lord Shenjizi."
Judging from his back, he appears sanctimonious.
In the center of the hall stood the master of the Star-Picking Pavilion—Shenjizi.
Li Zengqing stood not far away, her face ashen. There were still traces of a broken teacup on the ground, clearly indicating that their conversation had not been pleasant.
When Wu Xilan saw Li Mingke enter, her stiff expression softened.
"Mingke," he called to her.
"Father." She took a few steps forward. "Mother, what's wrong?"
Li Zengqing breathed a long sigh of relief. "It's alright." She smiled at her daughter. "You're out of seclusion?"
"Yes." With outsiders present, Li Mingke didn't want to say much more.
Shenjizi walked straight to her, saying nothing, only looking into her eyes.
Li Mingke didn't shy away and let him see her openly.
Shenjizi nodded and asked her, "You've read that book, haven't you?"
What book?
"Heavenly Book".
Li Mingke recalled the celestial book that his maternal grandfather, Li Jianshi, had spent several years studying.
"Yes, I wonder what insightful opinion Lord Shenjizi has?"
Shenjizi shook his head. "That's a book that only you can understand."
"Oh?" Li Mingke countered, "But as far as I know, you were involved in how I obtained these eyes, weren't you? You know they aren't my own eyes, right?"
Shenjizi did not deny it, "Yes, but no matter what, it will eventually end up in your hands."
"Hehe, if it weren't for the intervention of an adult, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to understand it!"
No, in any case, that book was written for you.
"Tsk." Li Mingke curled his lip.
She now fully understands the contents of that book.
She didn't care at all about past lives, past lives, or karmic entanglements!
Did she have a choice in her previous two lives?
"I wonder what brings you to the Li family, sir?" Her intention to send him away was quite clear.
If you have something to say, say it. If not, just leave! Don't get in my way!
Shenjizi nodded, "I observed the celestial phenomena last night and knew that the entire continent would fall into chaos, but the savior star appeared. I followed her all the way and found that she had fallen into the Li family."
"Savior?" Li Mingke crossed his arms. "Even if the world were in chaos now, let alone if it were peaceful now, my Li family wouldn't have anyone with that kind of ability."
Shenjizi shook his head. "No, the savior is in the Li family."
Li Zengqing couldn't stand it anymore. "Shenjizi! Stop talking nonsense! You've interfered in my Li family's affairs many times. I've already given you face by not having you thrown out! And now you're trying to deceive my Li family's young master!"
She gave a signal to the people around her, and immediately someone asked Shenjizi to leave.
Shenjizi wasn't angry. He left behind a sentence: "One day, the savior will appear in the world." Then, with a flick of his sleeve, he gracefully departed.
Shenjizi hadn't gone far when he heard Li Zengqing roar, "This is outrageous!" Then, there was a loud crash as a teacup shattered on the ground.
The head of the household was furious, and everyone trembled with fear.
Li Mingke stepped forward and took Li Zengqing's hand, "Mother, calm down."
Li Mingke slammed his fist on the table. "How am I supposed to calm down! Does that Shenjizi really think he's something special? Relying on his ability to observe celestial phenomena, the things he does are more and more disgusting than the last!"
Li Mingke remained silent; she knew all too well what Shenjizi had done.
"He really thinks he can control other people's fates at will! That the whole world will listen to him! Why doesn't he just become the emperor!"
Li Zengqing cursed a few more times.
After calming down for a while, she finally calmed down and turned her attention to Li Mingke. "Mingke, did you gain anything from your seclusion?"
Li Mingke nodded.
"Nothing dares to rival the brilliance of the stars."
"I have touched the edge of the Heavenly Dao."
