Chapter 1038: 835

Li Xuan had just returned to the Heaven Palace from the sun furnace workshop when he found his three children playing a game of horse-riding and mock combat in a spacious courtyard.

Yu Youlong was riding a little wooden horse, leading a group of nobles’ children on one side; Zhang Daoyi and Xia Yunwen, with another group of slightly younger kids, were on the other.

Both sides rode puppet wooden horses, wielding soft wooden swords wrapped in cotton fabric, charging and clashing with each other. However, the latter group, despite being more numerous, was clearly no match, chased around in a pitiful cry, fleeing in all directions.

Especially Yu Youlong, dressed in dazzling golden armor, he was like a mighty Great General, invincible in his advance.

When Li Xuan arrived, he spotted Luo Yan with round, glaring eyes watching the scene, one hand firmly on her waist sword.

"This little rascal Yu Youlong, how dare he hit so hard? And he’s even chasing after Yunwen to strike?"

Xia Yunwen is Luo Yan’s child. She was pregnant earlier this year with a second child and gave birth to a kylin baby. Therefore, she let her eldest son take the surname Xia and also accepted the inherited title of Earl Shenyi from The Court.

Li Xuan now had six inherited earldoms from The Court and made sure to distribute them fairly.

But Luo Yan didn’t place much importance on the titles from The Court. She was grinding her teeth in anger, with an expression that made it clear she was quite willing to slaughter Yu Youlong.

After hearing this, Li Xuan couldn’t help being speechless; all these children were protected by Spellcaster’s spells, and the wooden sword wrapped in cotton would only cause a slight sting on impact, not enough to hurt anyone.

Li Xuan shook his head and walked over to Jiang Hanyun’s side.

Jiang Hanyun was also watching the running children in the courtyard, her eyes filled with an unusual luster.

"What? Jealous?"

As Li Xuan spoke, he observed Jiang Hanyun’s expression carefully, "If you’re envious, let’s have a brood together, I’m sure they’ll be lively and bouncing around, just as adorable as these three rascals. With the demon disturbances subsiding in recent years, Hanyun, you really should take some time to rest, there’s no need to keep running around."

The key issue was that his official wife was also carrying a Jade Qilin, leaving him with no opportunity.

Jiang Hanyun could only laugh and cry while raising a little fist: "You’re the one bouncing and lively! And what do you mean by ’a brood’? Do you think children are piglets, to have ’a brood’?"

Yet deep within her eyes, a hint of envy and contemplation shone through.

Jiang Hanyun particularly liked children and really wanted to have a child with Li Xuan; her mother was also getting impatient.

But she was on the move most of the year, leaving little time for her to be alone with Li Xuan.

Even though there were still demons causing trouble in the world, Li Xuan’s influence was growing and Jinque Palace was gradually recovering its Yuan Qi; taking some time off for herself wouldn’t hurt.

Like Luo Yan, although she held the positions of both Dasiming and Liudao Division, Luo Yan spent most of her time lazing around in Li Xuan’s Heavenly Court, raising her two children and living a carefree life like an immortal.

Jiang Hanyun then put these thoughts aside, her expression turned serious: "Good timing on your return. I came back to ask for your help this time; I need to use that what’s-it-called dyson ball."

"Dyson ball?" Li Xuan’s expression changed, and he looked Jiang Hanyun up and down, a complex look in his eyes, "Has your Golden Body progressed to this stage already? It’s only been a little over two years—"

Li Xuan felt both proud and happy yet a bit apprehensive.

Over the last two years, relying on his Zhongzi Golden Body, none in his harem could handle him, so he’d done some shameless deeds.

But now Jiang Hanyun’s Golden Body had come this far as well.

What would be the outcome of Zhongzi Golden Body versus Zhongzi Golden Body?

Even though Li Xuan himself believed his Golden Body to be much stronger, could he truly fight back against Jiang Hanyun? The likelihood of being hammered into an incapacitated state was very high.

"It’s almost there; with so many top-tier Spiritual Medicines nurturing me, if I cannot further refine my Golden Body, that would be too wasteful," Jiang Hanyun said, shaking her head, her eyes filled with hope, "I’m just one step away now."

Li Xuan had managed to regain his composure: "The dyson ball won’t work, Mr. and Mrs. Yue still need it to refine some items. However, for your final step, my intervention would suffice. Come with me, Hanyun."

He grabbed Jiang Hanyun’s hand in one swift motion, and in the next moment they transformed into a Thunderbolt’s flash. When they reappeared, they were already in the back of the Heaven Palace at the ’Shentian Palace’, which nominally was Li Xuan’s sleeping quarters.

But in reality, he had not spent a single day in the ’Shentian Palace’ out of the 365 days of the year.

The Yunyan Pavilion of Luo Yan, the small Taoist temple of Xue Yunrou, Taichi House of Yu Hongchang, Shuilong Palace of Ao Shuying; these were his actual residences.

Therefore, this grand and magnificent temple was mostly used by Li Xuan as a place to practice Martial Law.

Jiang Hanyun sat down cross-legged directly within this temple, and then looked at Li Xuan with amazement in her eyes.

"Has your ’Dari’ Rule already been completed, Li Xuan?"

This man had actually surpassed her and her father without making a sound.

Her father only managed to break through to the middle heaven level and condense the ’Cold Ice’ Rule half a year ago, and the ’Thunderbolt’ Rule was still in progress.

"I’ve taken a shortcut by using the method of Buddhist oaths. That Maitreya was quite righteous and personally taught me how to condense the ’Dirulai’ Buddha body, and used the power of oaths to understand the Dari Rule of Dijun. However, I was worried the oaths were too great to fulfill, so I only made a few. I only have three major oaths: One, to ensure every citizen of the Han Dynasty may have food and warmth; Two, to build countless houses to shelter the poor and bring joy to their faces; Three, to ensure that every child over ten in the Han Dynasty can learn literacy. Maitreya said these oaths were too narrow in scope and couldn’t be considered grand vows, but I think they are just right. These are exactly what I can accomplish."
