And I also heard Grandpa say that our Su Family once had a Six-tails powerhouse. That powerhouse not only had an indestructible soul but also an indestructible body. It’s just a pity... compared to the power of the Mysterious Lady, it was still far lesser."

After speaking, she looked at Song Cheng and said, "Song, since the Mysterious Lady could Manifest and eliminate the Ghost Servant, perhaps she has some connection with you. Maybe... you are also one of the people from the Immortal Tower."

Song Cheng was stunned for a moment, then firmly said, "Impossible."

After thinking it over, he added, "Even if it were true, since they abandoned me and made me a blind man wandering the world, then my home is here, not in the Immortal Tower. I won’t delve into the past."

The elder sister-in-law and Yu exchanged looks and began to work on Song Cheng’s mindset.

They were also curious about this predecessor who seemed to have some connection with their Su Family and who exactly this divine figure was.

While persuading Song Cheng, they directed their gazes towards the jade statue of the Mysterious Lady on the shrine.

Even the elder sister-in-law showed a look of longing.

The Su Family sorely needed such a predecessor.

Song Cheng didn’t stubbornly resist, so in front of the elder sister-in-law and Yu, he pretended to worship the jade statue of the Mysterious Lady, mumbling about his own life story, but he received no response.

The three had to temporarily stop...

...

...

In a blink of an eye, another two months had passed.

By the end of June...

The temperature was unusually high.

And the matter that Song Cheng and his family were worried about was apparently a concern in every part of the prefectural city as well.

Everyone had noticed that the Ghost Tide was getting stronger with each wave, and they absolutely had no confidence they could withstand the next one.

Many forces, many civilians turned into refugees, heading south during this sunny weather.

Accompanying them south was the faith in the Mysterious Lady from the northern regions.

In Hanping Prefecture, many civilians and merchants also began to entertain similar notions.

Even though there might be wars in the Central Plains.

But no matter how intense a war, it’s still humans fighting humans, unlike these northern lands... constantly suffering attacks from evil spirits.

Under Ruyi Commerce Chamber, many cautiously conveyed their opinions upstream, and civilians went to the Prefectural Government Office requesting to leave the city.

Just then, Song Cheng finally got in touch with Zhao Hua.

The misty moonlight spread in circles, revealing the scene on the other side.

Zhao Hua, dressed in military garb, though his face was dusty, his eyes sparkled, and he radiated an aura of battle.

Upon seeing Song Cheng on the other side, Zhao Hua smiled and bowed, saying, "Big Brother, I left that day without saying goodbye, it was Hua’s fault. If we meet again in the heartlands, I’ll penalize myself with three drinks."

Song Cheng smiled and said, "You left, I knew."

Zhao Hua was stunned for a moment, then laughed and scratched his head.

Song Cheng asked, "How goes the battle to the south?"

Zhao Hua immediately became excited, "Big Brother, I never expected the forces in the south to be so weak. They may be brave individually, but under the assault of a large army, they are nothing."

Song Cheng said, "Did you meet any Noble Family Child?"

Zhao Hua laughed awkwardly, then whispered, "Big Brother, I’ve made marital alliances with the Qi Family behind the scenes in East Sea State.

The idea was still Gao Xunle’s."

I had drugged him, yet he still submitted to me, and now he and I have become brothers-in-law.

"Oh, Gao Xunle is from the Gao Family of Divine Martial Town in the Six Towns. He couldn’t get along with Mr. Xuxian from Shuofang Town, so he came to join me,"

Afterwards, it was Zhao Hua who kept talking.

But Song Cheng could generally make out

that this lad Zhao Hua had already established a firm footing in East Sea State and had gathered quite a few forces from the Six Towns, while most of the people from the Six Towns were now in Feng State and Thundercloud State. The situation was snowballing into a potential threat to the Imperial Capital.

The development of this situation was still somewhat unexpected to him.

He always felt that he might be in Newbie Village where he was very weak, but the further toward the Central Plains, the stronger those forces seemed.

Yet now it seemed that the northerners, who had long been combating harsh climates, the Northern Barbarians, and evil spirits, their combat power was actually quite stronger than that of the Central Plains.

This feeling was like "the previously self-deprecating impoverished northerners, who heard daily boasts of how prosperous and amazing the south was, but unexpectedly won a battle one day... The impoverished northerners were ready to kneel and beg for mercy, only to find that the south... was just a paper tiger... and then, they kept winning battle after battle, seemingly unable to lose."

Song Cheng thought and said, "Hua, I am now an emissary for the Su Family. Since you are a son-in-law of the Qi Family, ask them... If I want to relocate the people of Hanping Prefecture to East Sea State, would they agree?"

"Agree, why wouldn’t they?" Zhao Hua readily assured.

Song Cheng looked at him and suddenly smiled, "But I am not moving there."

Zhao Hua: ???

"Brother?"

"Since you’ve agreed, then tomorrow I will start the relocation from Hanping Prefecture."

"Brother, my army and everything I have were taught by you. Are you doubting me, worried about what might happen if you came..." Zhao Hua suddenly said.

Song Cheng gently shook his head and said, "You know, Elder Brother doesn’t like crowds."

Zhao Hua was silent for a long time. As the moonlight blurred and the Twin Fish Ornament was about to extinguish, he said, "I swear, if I ever harbor any disloyalty toward Elder Brother, may I not die a good death."

Song Cheng smiled and said, "Have you forgotten what I taught you?"

Zhao Hua earnestly replied, "Only the oaths to Elder Brother are true."

The moonlight extinguished...

Connection interrupted.

Song Cheng conveyed the message to An Chenyu and Madam Tong, asking them to spread the news of the relocation of the town’s people.

Meanwhile, he looked at his panel:

On the panel, the points were 980.

And there were two choices.

One was the skill [Five-tailed Fox Fire (Uninitiated (0/64))], and the other was the Cultivation Technique [Nine-Tailed Fox Spirit Sutra (Profound Level, Grade C) (Six Tails) (Uninitiated (0/64))].

For a skill to reach Perfection, it required 960 points.

He thought for a moment, and then allocated the points.

In an instant, the Six-Tailed Dharma Method was perfected.

Song Cheng’s strength jumped from "1097~2104" to "1217~2224."

...

In the An Family’s courtyard...

Ting held up a newly sewn bird with both hands, which was meant to only sway when walking, but suddenly flapped its wings and soared upward.

A little girl screamed delightedly, looking up at the bird while also leaning forward to gaze at the earth, unable to suppress her happy laughter, her hands shaped into little flowers, calling out, "Little bird, little bird~"
