The Great Xia Dynasty's Longevity Begins with Connecting to the Swallowed Starry Sky

Chapter 331 Showdown, You've Gotten a Good Job

Ye Liuyun really wanted to make a move, but when he did, he felt an extremely terrifying sensation.

It was an instinct; if he dared to make a move, he would die a horrible death.

If it were just a friendly spar, he would be quickly defeated.

If he were to actually do something, he would be killed immediately.

His intuition was accurate; he dared not move.

Grandmaster.

Ye Liuyun remained on the frontier and did not return to Qingdu.

But he was no stranger to things in Qingdu.

He has been paying close attention to news from Qingdu.

So anything that happens over there will be reported over as quickly as possible.

"Okay." Ye Liuyun said, only then feeling the aura surrounding him disappear.

When I looked up again, the person was gone.

Even he, a grandmaster, didn't know how the other party left.

Silently.

How could a grandmaster possibly explain such an ability?
A cold sweat broke out on his back; he felt his back was completely soaked.

Who knew? He was a Grandmaster, and even Emperor Qing had to carefully win him over.

Although he couldn't stay in Qingdu with his family, both he and his family were given important positions.

But when facing Qin Hao, he felt incredibly small, as if he were facing a colossus.

so horrible.

"The world has changed."

A few days after Qin Hao returned, Fan Xian found an opportunity to visit Qin Hao at the Jixia Academy.

Fan Xian also noticed that when he arrived, it seemed as if no one in the entire Jixia Academy could see him.

When he came in, he saw Qin Hao sitting there, doing something.

He didn't care about etiquette at all. He just found a table, sat down behind it, and lay down behind it without any regard for decorum.

Anyway, there were wool blankets laid on the ground. He had already advanced to the eighth rank, so even if he wasn't immune to heat or cold, this temperature was no problem for him.

He and Qin Hao are from the same hometown and are both time travelers.

It seems that this is why Fan Xian is especially relaxed around Qin Hao, and doesn't feel the need to be restrained at all because the other party is a Grandmaster.

"How is it?" Fan Xian asked directly.

Qin Hao smiled and said, "You think the saying 'fellow villagers stab each other in the back' is just a lie?"

Fan Xian was speechless. This fellow villager was good in every way, except that he loved to talk nonsense.

He used to enjoy watching himself die, and he would even empty his own pockets. No matter how much money he earned, it wouldn't be enough.

However, the medicinal meals sent from Sihailou were truly excellent.

He was able to advance to the eighth rank so quickly because of this.

Qin Hao said a few words, teased Fan Xian, and then said seriously, "I believe Ye Liuyun wouldn't dare to disobey. However, you might need to try to win over the Ye family more."

After a pause, Qin Hao suddenly said, "By the way, if you want the Ye family to help you with Ye Ling'er's affairs, you might want to consider it."

Fan Xian suddenly paused, his hand trembling: "Don't say that, I just got married to Wan'er."

At this point, Fan Xian probably didn't have the idea of ​​having multiple wives and concubines in his mind.

But the plot won't let Fan Xian have his way so easily.

Qin Hao looked at Fan Xian intently and said, "Aren't you already entangled with Si Lili?"

Unexpectedly, things happened much earlier than planned.

Fan Xian actually got entangled with Si Lili.

This woman is currently being held in the Censorate.

Fortunately, Chen Pingping didn't play games with Fan Xian at this moment.

Chen Pingping already knew that Emperor Qing was the one who had attacked Ye Qingmei before.

In Chen Pingping's heart, his loyalty to Emperor Qing was absolutely less than his affection for Ye Qingmei.

Ye Qingmei was a ray of light in his dull first half of life.

To put it bluntly, that's the white moonlight.

Ye Qingmei, an engineering student, unintentionally scattered a lot of red ropes.

Qin Hao chuckled and said, "I see that your Red Phoenix Star is in motion and your marital palace is forked, so you will probably have no shortage of women around you in this life."

Besides, once you overthrow your father, you'll sit on the throne yourself. Do you think the officials will allow you to favor only one person?

That was done under orders to open up the imperial harem.

The entire harem only has one Lin Wan'er?

impossible.

Fortunately, although Lin Wan'er also wanted to marry someone she liked, she was ultimately a person of this world and had received the education of the Qing Kingdom.

It is very normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines.

Even if Fan Xian is just Fan Jian's son, he is still the eldest son of the Si Nan Earl's Mansion.

An eighth-rank martial artist.

It's impossible for him to have only one wife, Lin Wan'er.

If Fan Xian successfully ascends the throne, the civil and military officials will not allow such a thing to exist.

"I……"

When Fan Xian spoke, he really wanted to say that he was in love with only one person and had no feelings for anyone else.

But when he thought of Si Lili, it seemed that he wasn't entirely without thoughts in his mind.

Then he thought that if he were to ascend the throne, the harem would never be empty.

"Aren't you afraid that once I ascend the throne, I'll abandon you after I've served my purpose?"

Fan Xian made a fierce gesture, but Qin Hao didn't tolerate it at all. He turned around and slapped Fan Xian on the back with an invisible slap, making him stagger and almost fall.

"Can't you give me any face?"

Fan Xian knew that Qin Hao was showing him through his actions that he shouldn't have any bad intentions.

With his strength, even a grandmaster would probably be dead.

At this time, Fan Xian had not yet advanced to the ninth rank, and the path to becoming a Grandmaster was still a long way off.

Although Qin Hao had already pointed out the way forward for him, as long as he comprehended the principle of Yin and Yang in harmony, he could advance to the Grandmaster level by relying on his domineering true energy.

It's even possible that things could go even further in the future.

But becoming a Grandmaster is still too far away.

The higher Fan Xian went, the more he felt the difficulties of becoming a Grandmaster.

He couldn't see his future at that time.

Qin Hao chuckled and said, "Alright, you don't need to think about this too much. Things will work themselves out. The world will take care of things for you. Even if you don't want to, the world will push you forward. You are the chosen one of this world."

"Me? The Son of the World?" Fan Xian seemed to have heard a joke.

He pointed at his own nose: "I'm an illegitimate child, shameful and only an eighth-rank cultivator, with the Grandmaster realm a distant dream. You call me the chosen one of the world?"

"Yes."

Qin Hao nodded and said matter-of-factly, "Look, Ye Qingmei was the chosen one of the previous generation. She started a revolution. But unfortunately, she was betrayed by her revolutionary comrades and killed by Emperor Qing."

And so, you came into being.

I think you've already obtained what Ye Qingmei left you. You don't actually believe you're a resurrected consciousness, do you?

He chuckled.

Fan Xian was also greatly shocked. How did Qin Hao know everything?

"How did you know?"

Qin Hao did not tell him how he knew.

He continued, "Consciousness and soul are completely different things."

Ye Qingmei was right in some ways, but also wrong in others.

The martial arts of this world have indeed been affected by radiation.

However, true qi does exist, otherwise you wouldn't have been able to master the Nine Yin Manual and the Nine Yang Divine Skill.

Your existence is likely due to the temple intercepting your soul, or rather, a fragment of your soul. Over a long period of time, the fragment of your soul was pieced together, and then you were reborn into this world.

You are the son of Ye Qingmei, the previous World's Chosen One, and the four Grandmasters are all related to Ye Qingmei, which means they are related to you.

You have six fathers, but only your biological father wants to use you as a pawn.

The other fathers might also want to use you as a pawn, but they all love you.

Fan Xian, listening from the front, thought he was hearing the truth of the world.

When Qin Hao said he had six fathers, he was stunned.

Why do I feel like you're insulting me?

You have six fathers.

Qin Hao chuckled: "You don't believe me?"

He raised an eyebrow slightly and continued, "Look, biological father Emperor Qing, adoptive father Fan Jian, father-in-law Lin Ruofu, master Fei Jie, godfather Chen Pingping, and wet nurse Wu Zhu, if you press the numbers yourself, aren't there six fathers?"

Fan Xian wanted to refute, but after thinking it over, he realized that he couldn't really refute it.
That's frustrating.

Qin Hao was amused by his expression. After thinking for a moment, he continued, "Actually, this can be considered a kind of self-salvation for the world."

The temple is unfathomable; at least for now, you cannot explore it.

There are indeed some strange things inside, and the world also has a desire for advancement.

Emperor Qing's actions, however, were aimed at excavating the world's deepest secrets and shattering any hope of its advancement.

Therefore, Emperor Qing was destined to fail.

Is he an emperor or a tyrant? Are you really that curious?
They've already succeeded, why do they still have to go and see Wu Zhu's eyes in person?
Qin Hao guessed that this should also be a catalyst of the world's heavenly way.

Emperor Qing, who was usually cautious, became arrogant at that moment, driven by his awareness of the world.

He's already succeeded. What the world is like is none of his business. He can say whatever he wants.

So he died inexplicably and ignominiously.

Fan Xian was speechless: "What exactly is a temple? My mother, she seemed to say, came from a temple, so why didn't I come from a temple?"

Qin Hao nodded and told Fan Xian directly, "You've hit the nail on the head."

I know what Ye Qingmei wanted to say: you were transferred by data.

Do you really think a person's memory is so easily transferred?

Moreover, memories are static; even if they are transferred, they cannot express your current agility.

All I can say is that this body of yours was born from Ye Qingmei.

But your soul was actually transferred from the temple; those memories were merely incidental.

Fan Xian was speechless: "So, my memories aren't mine, my soul isn't mine, then who am I?"

"You are a new individual formed by the combination of those memories and your soul. You could say you are a time traveler, or you could say you are a wandering soul in this world."

That temple was actually just a military museum left behind by a previous civilization.

It preserves precious technologies from a previous era, including knowledge that is beyond our time.

The bodies of Ye Qingmei and other pioneers were initially frozen and dormant in the temple; they belonged to that era of high-tech civilization.

When the time was right, their souls awoke, so they left the temple, bringing with them the spark of wisdom.

And you, Fan Xian, are the one who inherited their efforts and obtained all of this.

The Heavenly Dao of the World also desires advancement, although it may not know how many generations it will take to meet the conditions and successfully advance the world.

Fan Xian frowned, feeling quite troubled.

Qin Hao said a lot, and he seemed to understand it, but at the same time, he didn't understand anything.

"So if you're so capable, why don't you just take action? I don't actually want to be emperor."

How could Qin Hao possibly agree to Fan Xian's decision to quit?

"Don't even think about it, you are the chosen one of the world."

I don't want to be exposed to the public. In every world before, I was actually behind the scenes, watching the chosen ones of the world struggle.

I don't want to do it myself; it's time-consuming and laborious, and there's no benefit to it. This time, I only went to see Ye Liuyun because of you.

Otherwise, you should develop quietly on your own and work hard on your own.

Fan Xian realized that the other person was also someone who didn't like to move around much.

Like myself, they have no great ambitions.

Or rather, they are unwilling to work that hard.

To be honest, he initially just wanted to be a wealthy man, marry a virtuous wife, be a good mother, and have several children.

It's that simple.

But his status forced him to take action, even to the point of starting a rebellion.

"What about Northern Qi?" Fan Xian was very worried.

If we destroy Northern Qi, will Northern Qi work together with us?

Qin Hao stared at Fan Xian for a long time, until Fan Xian was somewhat at a loss, before Qin Hao finally smiled and said, "Fate has already decided. Just do it. Your problems afterward are actually easy to solve. You'll know when the time comes."

"I hate it when you guys only tell half the story. Can't you just tell us everything?"

Fan Xian was very depressed.

But who can blame me for not being able to beat them?
If you're outmatched, you have no choice but to concede.

Next, Qin Hao threw him out.

"Don't come looking for me unless it's important. I need to go into seclusion."

Besides needing to cultivate his physical body in this world, he also needs to explore the future of martial arts and the cultivation of Confucianism and Taoism.

This isn't just about one world's "me" or "other," but about many worlds.

Even the true spirit of the body itself.

Fan Xian found Chen Pingping again at the Supervisory Council: "Qin Hao said that Ye Liuyun has been dealt with."

"what?"

Chen Pingping could hardly believe it.

That's a grandmaster.

How come in Fan Xian's mouth, it sounds like Xie Bi'an, who is next to the Second Prince next door?

An eighth-rank swordsman?

So it's easy to get rid of them?

So, was the head of the Jixia Academy really a Grandmaster?
Moreover, his methods are bizarre and effective in restraining Ye Liuyun?

Ye Liuyun didn't necessarily have to listen to Qin Hao.

"Don't even think about it. Ye Liuyun is just neutral, but what about the Ye family?"

Chen Pingping suddenly laughed and said, "Why don't you marry Ye Ling'er from the Ye family?"

Chen Pingping genuinely loved Ye Qingmei's son and cared deeply for him.

Fan Xian was still a little reluctant: "Why are you all trying to force a match? I only like Wan'er."

After Lin Wan'er took the special medicine, her health improved visibly.

It's just tuberculosis, which has been cured in modern times.

Let alone the world of Swallowing the Stars?
"Is that so?" Chen Pingping didn't press the matter, but he could actually tell that Fan Xian seemed to only like Lin Wan'er.

But Ye Ling'er is such a beautiful girl, and she also has the powerful Ye family behind her.

I don't believe Fan Xian won't be tempted.

And then there's Si Lili; Fan Xian has clearly already fallen for her.

Don't say that Fan Xian is a very trustworthy person, which is why he had her locked up in the Supervisory Council.

We also need to protect it.

Fan Xian is not such a leisurely person.
"Wait, Dean, what do you want to do?"

Fan Xian subconsciously felt that Chen Pingping might be plotting something.

The head of this oversight body is known as the most calculating old coin.

Where are the good people among those who engage in espionage?
Bah! Chen Pingping was still a good person; he took such good care of himself.

After Fan Xian returned, he felt somewhat awkward when facing Lin Wan'er.

Lin Wan'er seemed to have noticed, but also seemed not to have.

A smart daughter knows how to do things in a way that gives her the biggest advantage.

She is the woman Fan Xian married through proper channels. As long as she doesn't make any mistakes, even if other women want to marry into the family in the future...

Then she is also the first wife, the legal wife.

No one else could get past her.

She also has Lin Xiang as her father, so she has powerful backing.

The eldest princess is still her mother, even if she can't be relied on, she won't let others bully her, right?

The person I fell for at first sight ultimately didn't stay with me until the end.

It's okay, didn't Jia Baoyu eventually marry Xue Baochai?

Several months later, Fan Xian copied over a hundred poems at a banquet in the palace.

Then, he sneaked into the palace at night and actually witnessed Li Yunrui's collusion with Zhuang Mohan of Northern Qi.

Fan Xian was furious.

It's just the control of the inner treasury. She's already a mother-in-law, yet she still won't let go of her son-in-law.
Fan Xian's disappointment and resentment towards Li Yunrui were almost solidifying into something tangible.

However, all of this has not yet stopped.

Li Yunrui's methods were one after another.

Yan Bingyun has disappeared; it seems he has been discovered by the Northern Qi.

Some people also say that Fan Xian met Yan Bingyun when he went to Northern Qi.

Therefore, Fan Xian is very likely the one who leaked Yan Bingyun's whereabouts.

He had no choice but to travel to Northern Qi.

Fan Xian went to Jixia Academy to see Qin Hao, but Qin Hao just smiled and said, "It's alright, go ahead. Yan Bingyun will come to see you himself. But since you're in Northern Qi, well, things will turn out as you wish."

This is so mysterious.

Fan Xian was furious.

However, what alarmed him was that Yan Bingyun was actually Qin Hao's man?
Did he stretch his hand too far?

Moreover, nobody knows.

I'm afraid Chen Pingping probably didn't know either.

Qin Hao seemed to notice Fan Xian's gaze, smiled, and said, "Don't worry, I don't care about worldly power."

"I've already ascended to immortality, with limitless lifespan, why would I care about such things?"

His true spirit has been transformed, so all his physical forms in all worlds are no longer subject to lifespan limitations.

"You really became an immortal?" Fan Xian asked, somewhat puzzled. "But it doesn't seem like it."

Qin Hao chuckled and glanced at Fan Xian, his gaze as if he were looking down at ants on the ground from a high place.

How can a sparrow know the ambition of a swan?

Qin Hao shook his head and said, "My body is nothing more than another's body."

My true spirit hangs high beyond the chaos, projecting into countless worlds, but it is merely a body of another self.

Even if you die and are annihilated, it's just a matter of time; you can be resurrected at any time.

Don't think about those unnecessary things.

He wouldn't be afraid even if the planet were destroyed.

This world is not just about this one planet.

In the future, didn't Fan Xian's daughter travel to another planet in a spaceship?
Fan Xian smiled awkwardly; he still didn't quite believe Qin Hao's words.

But it seems there's nothing to be deceived about.

Qin Hao laughed loudly: "Don't worry, once you advance to Grandmaster, or even above Grandmaster..."

At that time, I can link this world with the world where my original body resides.

When the time comes, you will be able to shatter the void and reach that world.

When the time comes, you'll know for sure whether it's true or not.

"Really?" Fan Xian was still a little doubtful, but judging from Qin Hao's appearance, he didn't seem to be lying.

Qin Hao nodded: "You don't need to worry. In the worlds I've been to before, some people are about to break through their limits, and they will naturally ascend. I'm already working on this. I'll make preparations for all those related to me who want to ascend to my world. Speaking of which, my eldest disciple, Guo Jing, is about to ascend."

"Guo Jing?"

Fan Xian was taken aback: "Isn't this a character from Jin Yong's novels?"

"What you keep in mind will eventually come to pass."

The characters created by Mr. Jin Yong may not necessarily be unrealistic.

It's as if you could be a character created by a great author.

But in this world, you are a real and tangible being.

Once you break through the limits and ascend, you will naturally know.

By the way, my world is also embroiled in constant war.

"what?"

"What do you mean 'huh'? Every world does not exist alone."

If this world wants to advance, it will also have to face calamities.

It could be another world, or it could be a natural disaster or man-made calamity. Things are never smooth sailing, and advancement is never guaranteed without any calamities or tribulations.

There's no such thing as a free lunch.

After a pause, Qin Hao said, "However, Rong'er's cooking is quite good, and there's also Xiao Xiang'er. Why did she still fall for Yang Guo?"
I clearly think Zhang Junbao is pretty good too.

This is nothing.

Fan Xian felt that Qin Hao was fooling him.

But he couldn't quite understand it, and felt that Qin Hao seemed to be right.

They left the city and headed towards the Northern Qi.

On the way, he met Haitang Duoduo.

Fan Xian's face turned very dark.

Haitang Duoduo frowned: "What kind of look is that?"

Fan Xian said, "I didn't have any special feelings, but I was very welcoming to the Holy Maiden of Northern Qi, Haitang Duoduo."

"Huh? How did you know it was mine?"

With such a carefree attitude and such skill, who else could it be but Haitang Duoduo?
Although the world's experts are not limited to those who are in the public eye.

However, there are only a very few women who are at the ninth rank or above.

What bothered Fan Xian was that Qin Hao said that Fan Xian was going to take on quite a few concubines this time.

Begonia Blossom is one of them.

But this woman?

Fan Xian felt he didn't think much of it.

But he was still overwhelmed by Haitang Duoduo and unable to fight back.

Fortunately, Yan Xiaoyi came over and relieved some of his pressure.

However, the danger posed by a ninth-rank archer is immense, even for Fan Xian, who is already an eighth-rank master, with the added power of domineering true qi and Confucian and Taoist aura.

He still sensed danger.

Fortunately, Qin Hao did give him some good stuff in the end, preventing him from coming here alone to take risks.

"Yan Xiaoyi, I will definitely kill you."

Fan Xian and Haitang Duoduo worked together to drive Yan Xiaoyi away.

Then, they used aphrodisiacs to drive away the crabapple blossoms.

He failed to see the look of gritted teeth on Haitang Duoduo's face, a look of utter fury that demanded Fan Xian pay the price.

"Sigh, they're all just children. They'll be family sooner or later, so why bother?"
