Peach Blossom Lake!
"Ai!"
Yu Haoran couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the brand-new courtyard at the east end of the village. He walked to the entrance of the courtyard and lightly knocked on the door a few times.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
Zhou Mengling, who was dressed like a village girl, was tidying up the vegetables and fruits she had personally planted in the courtyard. She couldn't help but frown when she suddenly heard the knock on the door that hadn't sounded in a long time.
But when she remembered that there was someone who knew about her secluded place, her eyes immediately revealed a look of surprise and joy as she rushed to the courtyard door and opened it with trembling hands.
"Yu Shixiong, it really is you!"
When she saw the man she had been thinking about day and night standing outside the courtyard door, longing, excitement, grievance, happiness, and other complex emotions attacked her, causing tears to stream down her cheeks. She couldn't control her emotions as she rushed in front of him and hugged him tightly.
She was originally a proud daughter of heaven who had abandoned everything to live in seclusion. The huge difference in status and identity would cause a person to accumulate endless grievances in their heart.
Therefore, Yu Haoran didn't dodge and allowed her to hug him. He even reached out and patted her shoulder lightly.
"Yu Shixiong, I'm sorry!"
After hugging for nearly ten minutes, Zhou Mengling gradually calmed down and realized that she had lost her composure. Her face was as red as an apple as she hurriedly took two steps back.
"Junior Zhou, aren't you going to invite me in?" In order to alleviate Zhou Mengling's awkwardness, Yu Haoran took the initiative to make a joke.
"Yu Shixiong, please come in!" Yu Haoran's joke made Zhou Mengling forget her previous awkwardness as she invited him in with a smile.
"Yu Shixiong, the environment here is rather simple and crude. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth is also very thin. It can't grow the spiritual fruits you usually enjoy."
Indicating that Yu Haoran was sitting on a stone chair in the courtyard, Zhou Mengling picked a few fruits that had just ripened as she also joked.
"Therefore, I can only take out fruits that ordinary people eat to entertain you!"
"It's okay. I'm not the kind of person who is greedy for food."
While waving his hand, Yu Haoran reached out and picked up a red tomato. He directly opened his mouth and took a big bite, then praised sincerely.
"There's sourness in the freshness, sweetness in the sourness, and fragrance in the sweetness. Junior Sister's skill in growing fruits is not bad."
After hearing Yu Haoran's sincere praise, Zhou Mengling also felt very happy. She picked up a tomato and tasted it happily.
"Junior Sister, I'm here this time …!"
After finishing the tomato in his hand, Yu Haoran pondered for a moment. Then, he opened his mouth and wanted to say the purpose of his visit.
However, before he could finish his sentence, Zhou Mengling interrupted him.
"Senior Brother, if you want to do it, then do it. You don't have to consider Junior Sister's feelings." The smile on Zhou Mengling's face was instantly replaced by sadness as she spoke with a desolate expression.
In fact, when her excited emotions calmed down, Zhou Mengling had already guessed the reason for Yu Haoran's visit.
After all, she was not only a witness to the enmity between Yu Haoran and the Zhou Clan, but also a participant. She knew very well that the relationship between them was irreconcilable.
"Junior Sister, I will try my best to keep the Clan Leader alive."
Zhou Mengling's desolate expression made Yu Haoran feel a slight heartache. He hurriedly made a promise.
"Senior Brother, you don't have to take the risk for me!"
After shaking her head to reject Yu Haoran's good intentions, Zhou Mengling stood up and looked in the direction of the Central Region. She said with a slightly helpless expression.
"Because I know my father's character too well. I know that he is a person who would rather die than live in dishonor. I know that he is a person who knows how to endure and is good at seizing opportunities."
"If Senior Brother wants to smoothly exterminate the Zhou Clan, then my father's existence will be the biggest obstacle."
Speaking until here, Zhou Mengling turned around and looked at Yu Haoran with a pleading gaze in her eyes.
"Senior Brother, Junior Sister only hopes that you can leave my father's corpse intact so that I can bury him with my own hands, and that I can offer sacrifices to my father every year."
"Junior Sister, I promise you!"
Yu Haoran nodded and stood up to walk in front of Zhou Mengling. He directly reached out his hands and hugged her in his arms. Then, they silently felt each other's heartbeat and thoughts.
Perhaps it was because of the warm embrace, or perhaps it was because of the mental exhaustion, Zhou Mengling, who usually slept very little, unknowingly fell asleep.
When she woke up from her dream, she found herself lying on a bed in the loft. Her body was covered with a seven-colored auspicious cloud blanket refined from clouds and mist. An exquisite storage ring was placed beside her pillow.
When Zhou Mengling's divine sense swept through the space of the storage ring, she suddenly sat up with an expression of disbelief on her face.
This was because the storage ring contained three first-level upper grade Divine Veins, more than twenty first-level to ninth-level divine pills, five sacred pills that surpassed the first-level, a full set of Supreme-Being defensive artifacts, three cultivation insights of Emperor Wu, the Martial God, and the Supreme-Being Realm, as well as a Peach of Immortality and a Ginseng Fruit.
Not only could these top-notch cultivation resources and treasures make up for the potential she had lost, but they could also help her advance to the Martial God Realm of immortality.
"Yu Shixiong, don't worry. Junior Sister will use the cultivation resources you gave me to obtain an immortal life. Then, I will become a woman who will always wait for you." Holding the storage ring tightly, Zhou Mengling walked to the window sill and looked in the direction of the Prince's Mansion.
…!
In the Prince's Mansion!
After leaving the Peach Blossom Lake and returning to the mansion, Yu Haoran did not immediately start the Zhou Clan's expedition. Instead, he returned to the training room in the courtyard.
This was because the five perfect illusions not only allowed his state of mind cultivation to reach the peak of ninth-level Supreme-Being, but also allowed his consciousness to strengthen the power of the Law of Karma.
Therefore, before he started the Zhou Clan's expedition, he had to raise his cultivation and strength to the limit, and also try to raise the power of the Law of Karma to the level of the Law of Profound Mysteries.
Fortunately, he could use the Spacetime Víctor's time acceleration to raise his strength and laws, so it would not affect the Zhou Clan's expedition.
The sun rose in the east and set in the west. A day and a night had passed in the blink of an eye.
Using the Víctor's strongest time acceleration, Yu Haoran had spent close to a hundred years.
After a hundred years of cultivation, not only had his physical body, divine power, and soul power reached the peak of ninth-level Supreme-Being, but the power of the Law of Karma had also successfully advanced to the level of the Profound Mysteries.
At the same time, using the Profound Mysteries of the Law of Karma to deprive the Destiny Stone Tablet, he unexpectedly obtained a trace of the aura of the Immortal Realm.
At this moment, he already had the potential to directly break through to the Complete Tenth Grade Supreme-Being Realm. He could even use the trace of the Immortal Realm to break through to the Half-Immortal Realm.
