Peach Blossom Mountain Liu Jiaxiu's Biography

Chapter 1450

After his wife Jiang Xuefeng successfully overcame her tribulation, Liu Changxu's life finally returned to peace.

After experiencing the pain of Liu Qingying's tribulation and subsequent death, and after a long period of repeated contemplation, he gained a different kind of understanding than before.

This time, he no longer supervised his wife and children's cultivation as he used to. Instead, he learned to respect everyone's choices and accept the arrangements of fate without forcing anything.

However, after shedding that heavy responsibility, he suddenly lost his direction and fell into a kind of inexplicable confusion because he no longer had a clear and definite goal.

To pass the long, endless hours, Liu Changxu began to learn how to enjoy a peaceful life.

Therefore, he summoned all his wives, who were scattered in various places, to his side so that they could spend their time with him.

Liu Changxu married many women, and although many of them perished for various reasons, there are still more than twenty of them alive today. Each of them is not only highly skilled in cultivation but also one of the most beautiful women in the world.

Including: Wu Xuege, Duan Yuwei, Xiao Zier, Zhao Qier, Murong Yuyao, Yang Yuxuan, Chen Yufei, Jiang Xuefeng, Yang Qingxue, Xiao Ningxue, Dongxue, Su Yue'e, Zhao Qingxia, Su Jinxiu, Li Zhenxin, Lian'er, Ziling, Li Yu, Lin Fengqing, and Huang Xuefei.

With so many stunning beauties by his side, his life may seem ordinary, but it is actually lively and exciting.

He and his wives spent their days either cultivating in bed or researching various delicious spiritual foods to satisfy their appetites. Occasionally, they would also guide their children and grandchildren in their cultivation. Their lives were fulfilling yet peaceful.

These ordinary days, though lacking the excitement of clashes with powerful alien races, offer a rare sense of peace and tranquility amidst the mundane details of daily life.

He gradually came to understand that life doesn't always have to be about rushing towards a certain peak. Occasionally pausing to cherish the time spent together is also a rare kind of fulfillment.

However, any good life, if enjoyed for too long, can become boring and tedious!
A hundred years later, Liu Changxu could no longer bear the peaceful life he had once thought was wonderful!

On the evening of January 9th, 970th year of the Great Han Dynasty, inside the Ruyi Lotus Palace above Peach Blossom Mountain on Golden Ring Island.

Liu Changxu and his twenty wives sat around a round table made of gold and jade, which was laden with carefully prepared high-grade spiritual dishes:

On the jade platter, crystal dragon liver gleams, seemingly imbued with moonlight; steamed silverfish rests on emerald green vegetable leaves, its skin shimmering with a faint pearly sheen, the broth so clear it reflects one's image; in the white jade bowl beside it, crab roe soup steams gently, golden crab oil floating on the surface, its rich aroma wafting straight to the nose… accompanied by a platter of shimmering fairy fruits, purple like gemstones, red like agate, each fruit plump and juicy, a feast for the eyes.

The room was filled with the lingering fragrance of incense, mingled with the laughter of the crowd, making the candlelight seem especially warm. The scene was as lively and cozy as ever, as if all the noise and turmoil of the world had been kept outside this door.

As everyone was chatting and laughing, Zhao Qi'er suddenly put down her jade chopsticks and said softly:

"Your Majesty, I wish to return to Bailing Star to visit my father. Please grant me permission."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Xiao Zier beside him immediately chimed in:
"Your Majesty, I also wish to go back with Sister Qi'er to visit our elders at home."

Upon hearing this, Liu Changxu's heart stirred.

Having stayed on Golden Ring Island for years, I'm really bored and restless. Why not take this opportunity to get out and about? He then laughed and said:

“That’s perfect. I’ll go with you and catch up with my father-in-law.”

"Your Majesty!"

Sitting opposite her, Wu Xuege quickly spoke up to advise, "You are the pillar and backbone of our Golden Ring Island. If a powerful alien race at the Great Ascension stage or a ninth-order demon race attacks while you are away, the island will be leaderless, and the consequences will be unimaginable!"

Her words were like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing the thoughts in Liu Changxu's mind.

Looking at the concerned gazes of everyone at the table, and recalling the heavy responsibility on his shoulders, he couldn't help but sigh, slowly nodding, ultimately offering no objection:
"You're right, I didn't think it through."

The atmosphere in the hall became somewhat quiet for a moment. Seeing his attitude, Zhao Qi'er and Xiao Zi'er could no longer insist, but a trace of disappointment flashed in their eyes.

Liu Changxu observed this and said gently:
"Go back and visit your families with peace of mind. Come back soon, I'll be waiting for you on the island."

Upon hearing this, the two were somewhat relieved and rose to give a curtsy.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Because of Wu Xuege's earlier dissuasion, the atmosphere at the banquet quietly cooled down. Seeing the smile fade from Liu Changxu's face, the women unconsciously lowered their voices and even their actions of picking up food were somewhat cautious, for fear of saying something that would displease him.

Actually, they were overthinking it. Liu Changxu was never annoyed by Wu Xuege's advice, nor did he harbor any resentment towards them. At this moment, what surged in his heart was reflection on the past.

He suddenly realized that his earlier idea of ​​"giving up" after Liu Qingying's death was rather naive.

Over the years, he and his family have had such a smooth life that he almost forgot that the path of cultivation is one of fighting against fate and fraught with difficulties.

Liu Qingying's departure was undoubtedly a heart-wrenching pain, but this pain should not lead to his wife and children becoming lax on their spiritual path.

If one day he has to leave Golden Ring Island, and even this universe, and ascend to the Immortal Realm.

Without his protection, how long can the Liu family maintain this level of stability once they face a powerful enemy?
He looked up at his wives beside him, put down his chopsticks, and spoke gently:

"Xuege is right, I really can't leave Golden Ring Island and Taibai Star so easily!"

Seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, he continued:
"Just now I was thinking that I've been lax these past few years. There's never a smooth path on the road to immortality. You can't just guard it all the time. Only when everyone becomes stronger can we truly protect each other and this family."

His voice wasn't loud, but it carried an unprecedented firmness:
"From now on, we should still focus on our cultivation. It's not about being demanding of anything, but about ensuring that our family can live well in this world."

Upon hearing this, the women were taken aback at first, but then their eyes lit up.

Upon hearing this, a resolute glint flashed in Wu Xuege's eyes, and she stood up, saying:
"Your Majesty, rest assured, I will live up to your expectations and diligently cultivate myself. I will never let you bear this heavy burden alone."

Looking at her calm and resolute demeanor, Liu Changxu laughed loudly:
"Good! Xuege, you have been consolidating your foundation for a long time in the late stage of the Tribulation Transcending Realm. Now is the time for you to unleash your full potential. Strive to break through to the Great Perfection of the Tribulation Transcending Realm as soon as possible."

These words instantly ignited the atmosphere at the table.

"Your Majesty is right! Sister Xuege has exceptional talent and will surely advance to the Mahayana stage soon! I will also work hard and strive to achieve a breakthrough as soon as possible."

Xiao Zier was the first to laugh and agree, her eyes full of smiles.

With Wu Xuege and Xiao Zier taking the lead, all the women expressed their determination to cultivate diligently, and the atmosphere became increasingly enthusiastic.
