543: Chapter 191: This carelessness…

A surprise attack, a hostage farce, brought Li Ping’an’s secluded cultivation to an early conclusion.

What Li Ping’an felt somewhat regretful about was that his self-propelled enchanted armor was almost ready for use, but its primary function was self-destruction as an immortal power bomb, which was barely enough to blow up a True Immortal.

It would take some more time to gradually perfect it.

At the very least, he wanted it to be capable of damaging experts at the Heavenly Immortal Realm through the armor’s self-explosion, only then would it be worthy of the enchanted armor’s cost.

Li Ping’an had come up with names for these tactics.

Self-propelled enchanted armor detonating en masse—Standard Pay-to-Win Strike;

Cangyue Bead activating the Xuanyuan Sword Command—Serious Pay-to-Win Strike.

The recent attack on the lion from the Demon Race, Ah Zheng, made Li Ping’an deeply realize the wonderful uses of the Cangyue Bead when combined with other magical treasures.

Later, he planned to channel a few dozen Spirit Stones into the Cangyue Bead to serve as a reserve of Spiritual Power for the Xuanyuan Sword Command.

It was expensive, but it truly could save lives when necessary.

Without Spirit Stones, a person might still survive, which naturally would be tragic, but if one had leftover Spirit Stones and no life, that would be a tragedy among tragedies!

Early in the morning, several birds chirped in the backyard of the government office.

Li Ping’an woke from his meditation to find his vision a bit blurry with whiteness.

Upon closer inspection, he discovered it was a familiar touch of immortal power that wouldn’t trigger his Spiritual Sense’s alarm.

Immortal power formed a barrier, enveloping him.

Outside the barrier, a woman in white stood by the window, her black waterfall of hair cascading down her back, emphasizing her slender figure.

Her tender ivory skin on her delicate arms was as exquisite as the world’s finest white jade endowed with softness, making one unable to resist the urge to pinch it.

“Cough!”

Li Ping’an cleared his throat, his mind refocusing and erasing the inadvertent ripples that arose within him.

He had inadvertently disrespected his master again.

The barrier disappeared, and Qing Su turned around from the window.

Her eyes, shimmering like stars, glanced at Li Ping’an with a hint of brightness and she asked,

“Are you injured?”

“No,” Li Ping’an got up and did a few chest expansion exercises, “Master, when did you arrive?”

“Midnight, you were meditating,” Qing Su looked outside, “Your trusted aide didn’t stop me…

I’ll stay by your side for a while, shall I?

It seems that the Demon Race has marked this place.”

Li Ping’an’s heart felt inexplicably more peaceful and he replied smilingly, “Aren’t you fighting the enemies on the frontline, master?”

“It seems like the Demon Race doesn’t want to fight anymore.”

Qing Su slightly pursed her lips, frustration was evident on her beautiful face, and she couldn’t resist venting,

“I really don’t know what they’re planning with their troop formations.

Every time they charge at us furiously, but run away after a brief clash.

“To date, the battle where I’ve killed the most demons was the very first clash when the war started.

It seems these members of the Demon Race are overly cowardly.”

Li Ping’an said, “If every battle was as intense as the day the war started, the entire Western Continent would be in utter ruin by now.

Let’s go have something to eat, master.

I’d also like to take a stroll in Dong’an.”

“Good, I’ll call Ling’er and wait for you outside the government office.”

Qing Su’s figure floated out the window and she left, stepping on the clouds.

Master wore embroidered shoes today, and those jade feet…

Cough!

Look away, look away.

Li Ping’an raised his hand and poked his eyes, then conveniently rubbed the corners.

‘What’s wrong with me?

Why do I feel amorous whenever I see my master?

Thinking of that?

Ah, should I go through with the Heavenly Dao, advance to Yuan Immortal, and then find Ningning’s mother at the Queen Mother’s place to ask for her hand in marriage?’

Li Ping’an glanced at the Golden Cloud at the altar.

After wandering near Mo Linyuan for half a day, the Golden Cloud had clearly grown larger.

This thing can indeed be charged.

…

Li Dazhi didn’t stay long at the Supervisory Office.

As soon as Li Ping’an left the office, he and three Golden Immortal ancestors departed as well.

After consulting, the three Golden Immortal ancestors decided to take different paths.

Zhan Yuan, with another Golden Immortal from the Tianyuan Sect, went to secure the safety of the Castcloud Hall’s production line, which was vital for the survival of their sect.

Daoist Kongming had already sent a Jade Talisman to Yun Ting, a Golden Immortal of the Wanyun Sect, asking him to be ready to assist at any moment, and later he took responsibility for protecting Li Dazhi’s safety, deciding to stay in Dong’an City for a while.

Elder Xu Sheng took up his duty without any reluctance and planned to go back to Li Ping’an’s side, to personally protect him for some time.

What the Demon Race targeted was exactly what the Human Race needed to protect.

The three Golden Immortal ancestors were also full of enthusiasm.

Especially Xu Sheng.

When he heard that he could stay by the side of Teacher Yunzhong’s only formal disciple legitimately, his hair and beard fluttering all over, the entire person seemed to grow younger by a few years.

He sent out Jade Talismans nonstop, swiftly managing all the affairs of the Yuan Sect from a distance.

The Golden Immortal ancestor of the Tianyuan Sect joined the ranks of ‘industrious working ancestors.’

Li Dazhi didn’t have any objections to this arrangement.

He returned to his secluded high-rise dwelling, where he had lived for three years, took off his wig, lit a dry tobacco pipe, and with his back to the vast waves, began to contemplate some issues he rarely considered before.

‘The world is in too much chaos.’

‘Now is really not the time for Ping’an to start a family and have children.

An extra concern means an extra weakness, and having children is even more unreliable.

If he can’t even protect his children, Ping’an’s commitment to his path will suffer a severe blow.’

‘The Demon Race is really despicable, even attacking my woman.’

‘I need to find a way to get her back.

A gentleman’s revenge is not too late, even after ten years.

Good people are bullied by others, good demons are ridden by others, hmph!

I’m not that easy to deal with!’

Dinglingling—

The sound of wind chimes came from the door, multiple Formation barriers opened and closed, and Xiaoyue, wearing a light red short skirt with her long hair up in a bun, elegantly approached.

“Uncle-Master, Qing Su and Ping’an are playing in the streets.”

“How are your injuries?”

“It’s nothing serious, but it’s Yue’er’s incompetence that has troubled you, Uncle-Master.”
