If she is around, I trust Brother Yi will have someone to look after him. Chen Taiping nodded, clapped his hands, and summoned the servants to give orders: "Prepare some food, today I will dine well with my father-in-law and mother-in-law." Upon hearing this, Xia Wanwan quickly stood up and said: "I’ll go. I haven’t been to the kitchen in a while, it’s a good time to check it out." Chen Taiping spoke, and then chatted idly with Xia Qinghai and others, while contemplating other matters in his heart. Originally, he intended to first go to the Imperial City to meet Emperor Wei, but upon seeing the state of affairs at home, he decided to settle the matters of the Marquis Mansion first. It must be known that at this moment, the Marquis Mansion is not only concerned with Xia Wanwan’s worries about Chen Yi, but also with the wavering thoughts of those branch families and the impact of the Old Lady’s previous reprimand of Zhou Wanyi. All these require him, the Family Head, to resolve. "Given Yi Er’s current status, the grand Taian Prince Mansion indeed needs to recruit some personnel, but the branch families of the Chen Family should be clear—what is given to you is your blessing, if not given, you must keep to your own duties." Chen Taiping understood the thoughts of those branch families; human nature is , and he could comprehend it. In fact, just within half a day’s time. A chain of actions from the Imperial Court stirred the hearts and minds of everyone within the seventeen prefectures of the Da Wei Dynasty. Just as Chen Taiping had considered, from commoners to aristocratic families, everyone is thinking about how these actions from the Imperial Court will impact them. Some can see clearly, others still lie resting on the laurels of past achievements, thinking the Imperial Court won’t forget their meritorious descendants. But, how could that be? Whenever there is change, the capable rise, the weak fall—this is an unchanging truth since ancient times. Those who rely on ancestral glory will eventually be swept onto the shore. "Senior Sister Xueru, I said Junior Brother Chen Yi wouldn’t be so quiet, he’s just gone to the Taizhou Mountain Battlefield not long ago, and already caused such a commotion." While practicing the Grand Void Eight Skills, Xiao Xuanzhen said: "Slaying an army of 500,000 demons, I wonder when we can witness such grand scenes." Lin Xueru pursed her lips, forced a smile, and said: "Brother Yi must have struck at the right moment." Although she hadn’t seen it with her own eyes, she knew Chen Yi well enough to understand he’s not one to act rashly without knowing the circumstances. Clearly, having just gone to the Taizhou Mountain Battlefield, even if he wishes to deal with the Demon Court, he would first comprehend the situation before making a decision. Thɪs chapter is updated by novel_fіre.net So upon hearing the war report, Lin Xueru understood that the situation at the Taizhou Mountain Battlefield greatly exceeds their imagination. Upon hearing this, Hua Xianzi lightly spoke: "Senior Sister Xueru is right, Brother Chen must have coincidentally arrived at the assault of the Demon Court." "Whether he happened upon it or not, to achieve such results in a battle of this scale shows Junior Brother Chen Yi is well capable," Zhan Hongxiu waved her hand, indicating they should not worry: "Once the selection from the Tianyuan Continent concludes, we shall also head to the Taizhou Mountain Battlefield, for now, focus on our cultivation." "Senior Sister is right," Hua Xianzi looked at Lin Xueru: "Senior Sister Xueru, you must have the utmost confidence in Brother Chen." She also believed in Chen Yi. Lin Xueru glanced at the two, smiling and nodding, "Once the selection is over, we shall go to the Taizhou Mountain Battlefield to reunite with Brother Yi." The selection match is not far away and is still set to be held in Kyoto Prefecture. Thus, during this period, they hadn’t left and stayed within Duke Xing’s Mansion cultivating. Even the seeds from other gatherings have remained within Kyoto Prefecture, each cultivating. "In a few days, our father will come to Kyoto Prefecture and will bring us some elixir and scrolls," Xiao Xuanzhen remembered something, saying: "Father hopes we all can pass the selection and head to the Taizhou Mountain Battlefield." "It may be difficult," Hua Xianzi sighed softly: "Senior Sister Xueru might secure a spot, and both the Prince and Xie Dongan similarly, as for the remaining spots..." "Junior Sister need not worry, according to father, there should be a certain chance." Listening to the conversation between the two, Lin Xueru gradually dispelled her worries over Chen Yi and devoted herself wholeheartedly to cultivation. She must secure a seed position! What they hadn’t noticed was a guard not far away looking askance at them. Three little sprouts, what’s there to compare? Wen Renying rubbed herself with a silent huff: Where am I lacking? In the blink of an eye, ten days passed. Chen Yi has already been at the Taizhou Mountain Battlefield for half a month, and he’s thoroughly familiar with the situation here, especially the conditions in Youdu City and the surrounding regions, knowing them inside out. Currently, Youdu City serves as the nearest guard city to Sky Dome City and its importance is self-evident. Whenever a great battle occurs, it is certain to be assaulted by the Demon Court. Meanwhile, the Human Race here employs tactics from both sides of Sky Dome City’s guard cities to surround and counter-attack the Demon Court’s army, or adopt strategies of encircling Wei to save Zhao, alleviating the situation and pressure of the Sky Dome City’s front battlefield. So besides the Path of the Grand Void, the Great Powers within Youdu City include many cultivation masters from various sects and villages also coming here for assistance. But they are mostly from small sects like the Golden Feather Sect, and the inheritances they receive aren’t comparable to those on Tianyuan Continent which follows various doctrines like Confucian, Buddhist, and Taoist, and also includes the Military Family, Mo Family, and Yin Yang; it’s a hundred flowers blooming. Moreover, the number of soldiers in Youdu City is notably higher than in other guard cities, and whether for rotation or rest, all must undergo routine array cultivation training from their respective assault, reconnaissance, and other camps to ensure they are ready to face the assaults from the Demon Court at any time.
