But he couldn’t say it.
How could he say such a thing?
From the very beginning, their relationship had been built on the soil of layers of lies and fog. How could it be possible for real flowers to bloom?
“Miaomiao, you should work hard too.”
“Me – I’m born with an Overlord Body, I can live forever. Uncle, don’t worry.”
“Innate Overlord Body?” Xia Ji fell into silence. How could Miao Miao believe such obvious lies?
Miaomiao, listen to me. No matter what, you still have to cultivate and break through to the peak of the eleventh realm, ” he said. What if Uncle breaks through and you don’t live for a hundred years?” “I don’t want to cultivate.” Lu Miaomiao pouted.
“I’ll teach you,” Xia Ji said.
Lu Miaomiao looked up at the man in front of her and hesitated for a long time before nodding reluctantly.
Xia Ji wasn’t lonely this New Year.
He suddenly understood that a loving relationship that was like glue was not necessarily wonderful. Two people had their own world and their own persistence, but they could still be together. This was what made his heart beat faster.
You need to understand the other party, but don’t change the other party. Don’t force the other party to think the same as you. This is the best relationship.
Yin and Yang had always been incompatible and had clear boundaries. No one was dependent on the other, but it was precisely because of this that they could rotate and produce Taiji.
If the Heavenly Dao was like this, wouldn’t emotions be the same?
After the new year, fireworks in March.
The Great Zhou had successfully annexed the Northern Shang.
Ji Xuan had to ascend the ancient mountain, Mount Dai, and pass through the Lotus Temple of the Pure Land to hold the ritual of worship. He had to worship the gods and erect a stone to praise the virtues of the Great Zhou.
After that, he needed to tour the entire country. Firstly, he needed to follow tradition and consolidate his rule. Secondly, he needed to offer sacrifices to the famous mountains and lakes to express that he was ordered by the heavens and was the master of the mountains and rivers.
As the emperor’s teacher, Xia Ji naturally needed to be accompanied.
He didn’t refuse and accompanied this chosen one who was destined to never reach the peak of the 11th realm to walk through the years that slowly welcomed the end of his life.
He was blessed with glory, but his lifespan was approaching its end day by day.
Ji Xuan had once looked for Xia Ji, expressing his fear that he didn’t want to die. Xia Ji smiled and told him, ” I still have the Five-Colored Token, so I can take him in and revive him later. ” Only then did Ji Xuan feel slightly relieved. He then urged Xia Ji to take him in as soon as possible.
Thus, besides Zuo Ci and Xia Qingxuan of the Nine Cauldron Alchemical Palace on Fangzhang Island, a third person was added to the quota for the Five-Colored Token- the founding emperor of the Great Zhou.
The Headmaster followed the Emperor to worship Mount Tai and toured the world.
Along the way, he took the opportunity to distribute his [Elephant Scroll] and [Ten Thousand Techniques Scroll].
Five years later.
Tne taSK or patrolling tne mountains ana rivers was commetea.
Xia Ji was already forty-nine years old, and Lu Miaomiao was twenty-nine.
The two of them had been together day and night, and their relationship had increased a lot, but in the end, they had not taken that step.
Lu Miaomiao knew that the person she loved deeply did not want to delay her, so as long as he did not break through to the peak of the eleventh realm, he would not marry her.
Under Xia Ji’s guidance, she slowly improved every day. However, for some reason, time did not leave a trace on her face. She was like an immortal witch, maintaining her original appearance.
By the time Ji Xuan returned to Juye City, the Imperial Palace had already been built.
Following that was the appointment of the empress, the imperial concubine, and the selection of talents…
And all of this had been arranged well.
The five great families sent out five female disciples. The Su family directly occupied the position of Empress because of the Emperor’s teacher. The other four families were divided into four imperial concubines.
Soon, the Empress became pregnant and gave birth to a boy named Ji Chang.
From then on, the Smiths split into a branch family.
We’ve split up and entered the world,
Soon, they became a top-notch aristocratic family in the human world with the momentum of a thunderbolt. This was a typical family that jumped to the sky through the Empress. It was not unexpected.
The following year, the other four imperial concubines gave birth to children one after another. The various aristocratic families also split into corresponding branch families. These branch families were called the four great families in the Great Zhou.
The four great families each controlled the lifeblood of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the military, the government, the business, and even the righteous and evil paths of the martial arts world…
Since then, the five great clans had retired and once again hid behind the scenes.
Perhaps there would still be many people mentioning the five great families at this time, but as time passed, fewer and fewer people would mention the five great families.
In addition, the Great Zhou deliberately kept the information confidential. In a few years, the five great families would become legends that few people knew about.
What replaced them were the number one family in the world and the four great families that had revealed the tip of the iceberg.
At this moment, Ji Xuan had already become a tool. He seemed to be taking the initiative, but in reality, he was passively walking through the motions.
The Great General, Chief Wen, Hidden Lord, and Imperial Advisor had naturally been replaced by the second generation.
Finally, the Su family also sent someone to replace the emperor’s teacher.
After all, Xia Ji’s mission of teaching Ji Xuan had been completed. Next was to teach Ji Chang, and this naturally required a new Imperial Teacher.
Xia Ji completed the handover.
Before he left, Ji Xuan announced to the world that Xia Ji was officially conferred the title of ‘Saint Master of the World’, and everyone should bow to him.
Although the Headmaster’s name was known throughout the world, the Saint Master was personally conferred by the Emperor of a dynasty.
The first generation of generals, the Head of Literature, the Hidden Lord, and the State Preceptor had all returned to the aristocratic families and were making breakthroughs in the small world with abundant spiritual energy.
Xia Ji knew that he could no longer return to the Su family.
He could not live on and could not break through to the eleventh realm. This was the bottom line of the ancestors.
At this time, according to the calculation of mortals, he was already fifty-four years old, and Lu Miaomiao was thirty-four years old. They had been together for nearly twenty years. It was not an exaggeration to say that they were telepathic.
Xia Ji returned to the Mirror Lake and took one last look at the familiar scene before putting away Cang Zhe’s transfer station.
Because from now on, this place would be returned to the Su family.
And he needed to travel far.
Lu Miaomiao combed his silver hair and said softly, “Shall I take you to the north? Even if the aristocratic families give up on us, we can’t give up on ourselves. Nanbei, you will definitely be able to break through.”
As she spoke, Lu Miaomiao hugged Xia Ji gently from behind, her cheeks rubbing against the side of his face as tears streamed down her face.
She didn’t know how many tears she had shed.
She could not understand why the aristocratic families would give up such a powerful teacher.
He also couldn’t understand why such a powerful teacher couldn’t break through to the eleventh realm.
It should be known that even ordinary people could enter the eleventh state after awakening their bloodline and reaching the peak of the Three Mystical Techniques of Essence, Qi, and Spirit. The Mystical Techniques that people in the world had broken through almost all came from the Headmaster.
But why was the Headmaster, who had taught the world, unable to awaken his bloodline?
She was already numb.
Xia Ji looked at the woman who had not changed her appearance and wiped away her tears. He had persuaded Miao Miao to go back many times over the years, but she was stubborn and refused to leave.
“Nanbei, let’s set off tomorrow morning, alright? There’s always a way.”
“Alright
The war was over, and the world was prosperous.
The door of Mirror Lake Manor was closed forever.
A carriage parked by the lake set off from the south and traveled tens of thousands of miles. After passing through mountains and rivers, it finally arrived in the north.
The fallen leaves were still green when they came, but now it was snowing heavily.
The north was still in turmoil.
However, the Great Zhou seemed to be encouraging and supporting those martial artists who were willing to go to the periphery of the Tribulation Land.
Every martial artist could obtain resources for free in the periphery of the Tribulation Land. If they were powerful, they could even obtain some medicinal pills for free.
Rows of houses were built. They were specially built for martial artists who were going to the Tribulation Lands.
The houses were numbered, and the closer they were to the front, the more luxurious and comfortable they were.
These houses even formed small cities, like soldiers stationed at the border, surrounding the Tribulation Lands from afar.
However, as the Tribulation Lands expanded, these cities were destined to continue moving outwards.
Xia Ji and Miao Miao concealed their identities and wore cloaks. After showing off their strength, they obtained a stone house that was ranked at the top.
The stone house had an independent courtyard, which was considered spacious.
