outh, he forcefully pinched my waist, pressing me against him.Forehead, tip of the nose, lips, chest, belly, and tangled legs... Such a close embrace, it should have been a romantic atmosphere, but he...As soon as I heard this, I frowned: “What The Xia family was involved in the sealing of the Netherworld Dojo If only I had known, I wouldn't have invited him for tea!”

Jiang Qiyun chuckled and looked at me: “Although they believe, they are still mortals, subject to the jurisdiction of the mortal emperor's government... only after death do they fall under the realm of the underworld.”

What does that mean Does it mean they'll be held accountable in the afterlife after they die

I can't hold back my laughter — the Emperor's little schemes are too "open and honest".

"If Shen Qingrui knew that her family had participated in sealing the underworld dojo, I bet she'd fight him." I couldn't help but say with a laugh.

Jiang Qiyun slightly tilted his head, the mountain wind tousling a few strands of his hair. He suddenly felt as if he were about to vanish.

I instinctively reached out and grabbed his sleeve, my heart pounding in my chest for no reason.

"What's wrong" he asked, looking down at me.

No, nothing... I shook my head. Jiang Qiyun wouldn't jump from this Guanshan Pavilion, would he Even if he did, he could just soar into the sky. What am I getting so worked up about

"What's wrong Why did your face suddenly turn white" He reached out and used his finger to lightly stroke my cheek.

He was never effusive, and even his occasional tender gestures carried a touch of aloofness. His cool fingers traced across her skin, sending shivers down her spine.

“I… I just suddenly felt a little terrified, you know On days like this, with all the devotees reciting your scriptures everywhere, I'm afraid you might suddenly disappear.” I whispered.

He looked at me with a smile: "...Thinking too much."

Isn't that just daydreaming I rubbed my face, and suddenly the little boy popped out from outside the pavilion, giving me a fright.

"Oh my, Little Empress why are you yelling so loudly I'm not a demon or ghost..." The little boy glared at me.

"...You just came from my brother's place, didn't you" This guy, his shirt is stuffed with squares! It's all chocolate bars and snacks!

He guarded his chest with his hands, as if I was going to steal his snacks: "Little Empress, this is what the elder brother gave me! You can't take it back!"

What am I going to do!

"You can't eat so many sweets, won't even immortals get cavities!"

"It's nothing, it's nothing, just go drink some water from the Lotus Pond. Hehe... Your Majesty the Emperor, Your Lady, Taichi God told me to bring something over."

He pulled out a small embroidered pouch and tipped it over, pouring out one...one...what was this thing

Purple beans

"The Venerable One said that it just so happened that the Emperor was celebrating his birthday, and a light-bodied elixir for refining Qi had just been produced in the alchemy furnace. So He sent me to give this elixir to the Emperor, letting Him use it at His discretion." the child said.

Jiang Qi's eyebrows moved slightly as he reached out to take it, saying in a deep voice, "Your reverence is kind."

"Of course, I do. Something like this is hard to find even in the heavens. The First Divine One thought of you first, how biased! So biased!" The little boy shook his head and said.

"What's this" I asked curiously.

A divine treasure is just... a burnt bean No way...

The way Taishen favors Jiang Qiyun is simply appalling.

I think even the Purple Micro Emperor, who gave birth to Jiang Qiyun, didn't show such obvious favoritism. But Taiyi, the most compassionate and benevolent deity in the Three Realms, shows an almost limitless amount of favoritism towards Jiang Qiyun.

The Primordial Heavenly Venerable said that among the Three Pure Ones and Six Supreme Beings, the supreme god Tai Yi is the most venerable and compassionate. He resides in the Qinghua Changle Realm and manifests in all ten directions of pure lands, relieving suffering and averting calamities. Countless immortals and deities in the three realms have benefited from his compassion.

He was the leading figure among the great deities who oversaw the removal of karmic obstacles, making him one of the spiritual leaders of the underworld and the deity most frequently assisting the Emperor of Hell.

So, Jiang Qiyun and he had a good relationship. He would also ask this old leader for help with anything. The Great Venerable even extended his care to me out of love for him.

"...What kind of medicine is this It seems burnt..." After the child left, I curiously asked Jiang Qiyun in a low voice.

"Burnt" he chuckled, looking at me. "Didn't the little boy tell you This is a pill for light body Qi cultivation."

What does Qigong mean

"Ascetics, don't they all seek to ascend to heaven during the day, refining solar qi and returning to the heavens This is a potent elixir that yields twice the result with half the effort. It's not easy to produce even a single pill after years of effort... The Great One deity would have thought of you first." Jiang Qiyun looked at the small pouch in his hand.

What does that mean Are you saying this pill is a genuine "elixir" Would it really help cultivators advance their cultivation and speed up the process of achieving immortality

Jiang Qiyun looked at me and said, "Would you like to eat"

"No, no, pregnant women shouldn't eat just anything." I shook my head without thinking.

He smirked: “.... You’re somewhat self-aware. I'll take it for now. When you have a child, if you don't want to continue cultivating slowly or don't want to have more children, then I'll give it back to you.”

Taking this elixir means you won't have to worry about having children anymore—once the Yang Qi is returned to heaven, you won't be able to conceive.

"I don't want to eat," I replied reflexively.

Jiang Qiyun raised an eyebrow and smirked: "Don't you want to have children anymore After becoming immortal, you won't have that worry."

I rolled my eyes. I don't dislike children, and I don't dislike the idea of having them, I just didn't expect to have so many.

" …Still, let it be as it may. I think being human is pretty good, I don't want to take shortcuts…" I muttered softly, paused for a moment, then added, “…Although I haven't thought about actually having that many children, but two more wouldn’t hurt either…”

"Humph..." Jiang Qiyun chuckled softly, shaking his head. He seemed quite pleased: "Little Qiao, little Qiao…"

"What are you doing!" I felt like he was laughing at me.

“You are truly the woman most fit to be a wife.” He let out a soft sigh. “You are not covetous, you are not suspicious, you are not foolish, you are not spoiled, you are not hateful…”

As he spoke, he narrowed his eyes slightly and gazed at the stone steps leading up to the mountain gate in the distance.

Lin Yanqin was arm in arm with my brother, talking to other influential families there.

Jiang Qiyun hesitated for a moment, then said in a low voice: "Mu Yunfan is actually also someone with an innate Taoist heart... The difference is, he is dynamic, you are static... Rare."

What's so special about it There are plenty of people like us in this circle.

At the front of the main hall, Master Xia was still talking to Shen Qingru, seemingly trying hard to get closer.

Jiang Qiyun suddenly said to me, "Let's go. Let them worship here, I'll take you for a walk."

I widened my eyes, no way, the God of Longevity is going to be willful this once

Jiang Qiyun smiled, a curl of his lips: "It's my birthday today. We should celebrate with everyone, there's no need to go to the Underworld Emperor's Palace."

"Uh What about daily work"

"Bai Wu Chang."

Pff…

I kind of understand why Qixing likes to bully me.with a kind heart, when saving people, their mind goes blank. They only think about rescuing the person as quickly as possible and don't care about their own safety.My mind was a bit muddled right now...
