Qian 'Er and Xue' Er, who had been away for so many years, were a little excited to return to the small world. However, their mentality and outlook were different now.
Faced with the greetings of the Boundless Heaven cultivators, the two of them remained calm. They didn't seem surprised at all that they could occupy Dao Sage Feng Beichen's territory. When they looked at the cultivators of the small world again, they were already looking down on them, giving them quite a bit of pressure.
Perhaps the two of them hadn't even noticed the changes in themselves. They thought back to when they first came to East Arrival Cave to follow Miao Yi. At that time, there were mountains weighing down on their heads, and they had to be extremely cautious. But now, these two maidservants and handmaidens had already become prominent figures in this small realm. Back then, how could they have imagined that they would have such achievements?
Fate was such a strange thing. There were so many people who were chosen as handmaidens like them, and some of them were still subservient to their masters. Speaking of the Boundless Heaven, even though Miao Yi and his handmaidens knew each other from a long time ago, they didn't even admire each other now. There were even some who weren't chosen by the Immortals who became the concubines of mortals after leaving their training grounds.
After returning, Yun Zhiqiu immediately gave the two of them a break and told them to go have fun. After all, no one in the small world would dare to threaten Miao Yi's people anymore. It wouldn't matter even if they pierced through the heavens, as Miao Yi was there to protect them.
The two of them left happily with the guards Yang Qing had sent over. They rushed to the Exquisite Refinement Sect to see Yao Ruoxian, wanting to see what their future adoptive mother looked like.
Before Miao Yi and Yun Zhiqiu, the two of them were just handmaidens. Once they left, they were the masters of the world.
"Big Sister, Brother-in-law!"
Yun Ruoshuang skipped out of the harem in a pink dress. She had big bright eyes, and when she saw someone, her eyes curved into crescent moons. Two dimples could be seen at the corners of her lips, and her pearly white teeth made her look cute.
"Mm!" Miao Yi nodded with a fake smile. The moment he saw his sister-in-law, he felt a headache coming on. He subconsciously thought of Luo Shuangfei, who had a mole on her face and hair growing out of it.
After Yun Aotian and company left the Small World, Yun Ruoshuang came to look for Big Sister and Brother-in-law. She failed to find them, so she directly drugged Yan Xiu and knocked him out. She learned about the Great World from Yan Xiu. Alright, she refused to leave and took over the Limitless Palace.
Yang Qing, who was overseeing this place, was having a headache over this unreliable ancestor. He couldn't scold him, hit him, or chase him away.
"Brother-in-law, are you not happy to see me?" With her hands behind her back, Yun Ruoshuang moved her head closer to Miao Yi.
Miao Yi chuckled and subconsciously took a step back.
"Ouch!" Yun Ruoshuang suddenly shrieked, but Yun Zhiqiu had already grabbed her by the ear and dragged her away. "Didn't you want to be a virtuous lady? You've only been a virtuous lady for a few days and you've already revealed your true colors. You dare to come here and poison people? Are you asking for a beating? "
"Big sister, I was wrong. If you twist my ear again, it'll fall off …"
Qian'Er and Xue'Er weren't around. Yang Qing waved his hand and had Qin Xi bring Qing Mei and Qing Ju to Yun Zhiqiu's side to serve her. He then followed Miao Yi and slowly walked forward, reporting some matters.
After he was done reporting, Yang Qing mentioned someone, "Milord, this is a letter from your little sister."
"My little sister?" Miao Yi was taken aback. Wasn't Little Sister in the Great World?
Yang Qing reminded, "It's Wen Fang from the Celestial Nation Chamber of Commerce."
"Oh!" Miao Yi suddenly understood. Yang Qing had transmitted to him that Wen Fang had come looking for him. However, he wasn't around, and Yang Qing couldn't tell Miao Yi where he had gone. Disappointed, Wen Fang could only leave a letter and leave. It wasn't easy for her to come all the way here.
She took the letter and read it. It was filled with teasing words, asking whether he had forgotten about her, his little sister, now that he was in the limelight.
Miao Yi broke out in a cold sweat. If she hadn't mentioned it, he really would've forgotten about this little sister of his. To put it bluntly, with his current situation, how could he keep thinking about such a small fry?
After reading it, Miao Yi pondered for a moment and said, "It's not easy for her to come and go with her cultivation. Send someone to fetch her here. This woman is very motivated and can endure hardship. However, she doesn't have many opportunities in the Celestial Nation. I will talk to Mu Fanjun. Take a look at the Chamber of Commerce in the Boundless Nation and arrange a suitable position for her. Even though she isn't really my little sister, we were indeed friends in the past. Help me take care of her and give her more opportunities. "
"Understood!" Yang Qing replied, "I will do it later."
Miao Yi then asked, "Regarding Tan Lao and Ye Xin's matter, Zhuge Qing still hasn't settled it?"
Yang Qing smiled and said, "Her words are still the same. As long as the wedding is held in the Jade Lady Sect, and Milord can personally officiate the wedding, she definitely won't have any objections. It's not hard to guess her intentions. After all the sects in the Celestial Nation's Fifth Earthly Branch were forcefully moved here, it's a little difficult for them to survive in the Boundless Nation. Thus, she wants to borrow Milord's influence. As the Sect Master, she has put in a lot of effort for the future of the Jade Lady Sect. And she's obviously certain that since Milord has made this request, he will agree for the sake of Tan Lao and Ye Xin. Otherwise, I will definitely teach her a lesson! "
Miao Yi shook his head and smiled. "Alright. Let's take care of some miscellaneous matters while we're here. I will only be here for two months at most. Inform her to make the arrangements as soon as possible. I will be there when the time comes."
"Understood!" Yang Qing replied.
"Oh, right. Make sure Yao Ruoxian and Mo Junlan's wedding is grand."
"I'm afraid that won't work. That was Mo Junlan's idea to make it simple. I can understand Mo Junlan's feelings. After all, she's already gone through it once. "
"Then let them be."
In the afternoon, after learning that Miao Yi and Yun Zhiqiu had arrived, Yao Ruoxian brought Mo Junlan along to pay their respects. Mo Junlan was obviously a little embarrassed.
But that wasn't important. What was important was that Miao Yi realized that after Yao Ruoxian became a Sect Master, he was already thinking about the future of the entire sect from the perspective of a Sect Master. He was no longer so egoistic, and had already learned to take the initiative to pay his respects.
Of course, Yao Ruoxian still wanted to save some face. After all, he had been at odds with Miao Yi for so many years, using the excuse that he was here to see Charcoal.
As for Qian'Er and Xue'Er, they had really gone off to relax and play.
Inside the Boundless Palace, Yao Ruoxian was clearly a little excited as he caressed Charcoal and interacted with him. He was personally measuring Charcoal's size in preparation to refine an armor for him.
Meanwhile, Yun Zhiqiu was chatting happily with Mo Junlan and presenting her with another gift. Miao Yi secretly shook his head as he watched. This woman was trying to win people's hearts again.
Taking advantage of the fact that Yun Zhiqiu was busy entertaining guests, Yun Ruoshuang secretly followed Miao Yi and pestered him.
Wherever Miao Yi went, Yun Ruoshuang followed, tugging on Miao Yi's sleeve without letting go. She coaxed, "Brother-in-law, take me with you. Take me to the outside world to take a look. My dear Brother-in-law, my dear Brother-in-law, I beg you."
Miao Yi helplessly stopped under the eaves as she tugged on his sleeve. "Shuang 'er, it's improper for men and women to touch each other. Can you stop tugging at me?"
Yun Ruoshuang's eyes immediately turned into crescents as she smiled. "Then why don't you just say yes?"
Miao Yi sighed. "I can't make the decision on this matter. Go look for your sister."
Yun Ruoshuang replied, "If it's useful to her, why would I look for you?"
Miao Yi forcefully pulled her hand away. "Then forgive me for being powerless. Even I have to listen to your sister."
Yun Ruoshuang's eyes widened. "Are you serious? You're a man, and yet you're afraid of your wife? Are you a henpecked husband? "
"Tch!" Miao Yi waved his hand disdainfully, then turned around and stepped through the moon gate. "Whatever you say."
"Stop right there!" Yun Ruoshuang stomped her foot and threatened, "If you don't agree, I'll tell my sister that you've been to a brothel!"
"That trick won't work on me." Miao Yi smiled with his hands behind his back and continued walking forward.
'Swoosh!' Suddenly, Yun Ruoshuang blocked his path. She grabbed her collar with both hands and pretended to tear open her chest. She warned sternly, "If you don't bring me to the outside world, I'll tear my own clothes and tell my sister that you molested me!"
Miao Yi laughed. "If your sister doesn't know you well, this trick of yours might actually work. But your sister knows you too well. With that kind of character of yours, who knows who your sister is going to beat up? Go away!" With a wave of his sleeve, a surge of transcendence energy surged out and pushed Yun Ruoshuang away. Then, he continued walking forward with his hands behind his back.
Yun Zhiqiu wouldn't agree to this. Even if she did, he wouldn't allow Yun Ruoshuang to go to the outside world. This girl was a troublemaker. He'd already experienced it firsthand. What would happen if he brought her to the outside world?
"Ah …" Yun Ruoshuang shrieked and grabbed onto some flowers and plants to vent her anger.
To avoid the woman's unreasonable pestering, Miao Yi specially asked Yan Xiu and Yang Zhaoqing to accompany him as he strolled around the Limitless Palace.
Along the way, he met Jing Ming and Jing Luo, who were still sweeping the floor. Miao Yi stopped and chatted with them for a while. He rewarded each of them with a hundred thousand Basic Immortal Pills.
Then, he went to see Zhou Liqin and Qian Zifeng, who had been guarding the palace gates for him all this time. He chatted with them outside the palace gates, and the two of them were overwhelmed by his favor. Before he left, he rewarded each of them with another hundred thousand Basic Immortal Pills.
It was rare for him to come back, so he tried to win over all his old acquaintances. He didn't know if he would be able to return safely when he went to participate in the assessment. Hopefully, this small gesture of his would help Yun Zhiqiu and the others gain a few more obedient subordinates when they had to return. It was easy to feel grateful for the kindness of insignificant people.
As he stepped out of the palace gates, Miao Yi turned around and asked with a smile, "Zhaoqing, how's your wife doing?"
Yang Zhaoqing smiled shyly. "She's always been thinking about how well you've treated her, Milord. She says that she wouldn't be here today without you."
Miao Yi laughed heartily. "I haven't seen Lin Pingping in a long time as well. Let's go take a look."
"Understood!" Yang Zhaoqing immediately led the way.
Miao Yi didn't know why Yang Zhaoqing had taken a liking to Lin Pingping, a middle-aged woman. Given Yang Zhaoqing's current status, he could have any woman he wanted. Yet, Lin Pingping still gave in after some hesitation. At the time, Miao Yi wasn't free, so Yun Zhiqiu had to personally officiate the wedding ceremony when he returned.
Miao Yi turned around and asked, "Yan Xiu, have you taken a liking to any of them? If you do, just tell me. I will personally make the decision for you. "
Yan Xiu chuckled. "I'll pass on this old servant."
Miao Yi shook his head. "You! Zhaoqing, if you have the chance, help him play matchmaker. "
"Understood!" Yang Zhaoqing chuckled.
Miao Yi smiled and asked, "Oh, right! How's Chen Fei doing? "
Yan Xiu replied, "With Milord's support, his cultivation has just broken through to Red Lotus First Grade. Then, Head Steward Yang promoted him to be the Suppressing First Hall Master of the Yin Road Immortal Palace. A few months ago, he even came by once to pay his respects to Milord."
Miao Yi sighed. "If you see him again, remember to give him another hundred thousand Basic Immortal Pills."
Yan Xiu replied, "I'll remember that!"
"The two of you …" Miao Yi hesitated for a moment. In the end, he changed his mind and said, "Wait for a few more years. When that time comes, I'll get you two better cultivation techniques. For now, focus on raising your cultivation."
