Investiture of the Gods: Childhood Sweetheart Daji, Starting with Quasi-Saint Cultivation

Su Hu remained silent for a moment.

"Have you thought it through?"

"I've made up my mind."

"And... what about Daji?" Su Hu asked. "Did she go with you?"

Su Yunbai shook his head.

"Chaoge is not safe now. I feel more at ease knowing that Daji is in Jizhou, protected by my father and the Iron Blood Army."

"That little dancing girl?"

"She'll stay too," Su Yunbai said. "Her cultivation is still shallow, and a place like Chaoge isn't suitable for her. Besides, with her there, she can keep Daji company."

Su Hu understood.

The son intends to leave his family in a safe place while he ventures alone into dangerous territory.

He patted Su Yunbai on the shoulder.

"Since you have made your decision, I support you as your father."

"Don't worry about Jizhou. As long as I have a breath left, I will not let Daji and Xiaowu suffer any injustice."

Su Yunbai felt a warmth in his heart.

"Thank you, Father."

"Between father and son, there's no need for thanks," Su Hu said with a smile. "But what position do you intend to take in Chaoge? Has King Zhou made any arrangements?"

"It hasn't been explicitly stated yet," Su Yunbai said, "but given my contributions in Beihai, and with King Zhou's intention to win me over, my position won't be low."

Su Hu nodded.

"The court is a treacherous place. Although Grand Tutor Wen Zhong is upright, various factions are deeply entrenched. As you are new to the court, you must be cautious."

"My son understands."

The father and son chatted about everyday things.

Su Yunbai took his leave and headed towards the backyard.

He wanted to see Daji first.

Daji is embroidering.

Seeing Su Yunbai enter, she put down her needlework and stood up to greet him.

"Yunbai, are you alright?" Her eyes were full of joy.

"Alright." Su Yunbai took her hand. "I'm sorry to have worried you."

Daji shook her head: "Where is Sister Bixiao?"

"She has returned to her sect and will come back in a few days."

Daji nodded and didn't ask any further questions.

She pulled Su Yunbai to sit down.

"Yunbai, are you... leaving?"

Su Yunbai was taken aback: "How did you know?"

"I can sense it," Daji said softly. "Although you're in Jizhou this time, your heart is already plotting something else."

Su Yunbai sighed inwardly.

Daji truly understood him best.

"Yes, I'm going to Chaoge."

Daji gripped his hand tightly.

"Is it dangerous?"

"There are dangers, but there are also opportunities." Su Yunbai spoke frankly, "The great calamity of the Investiture of the Gods has begun, and there is no way to avoid it. Only by actively entering the game can we seize a glimmer of hope."

Daji remained silent.

After a long while, she looked up.

"Then... what about me and Sister Xiaowu?"

"You will stay in Jizhou," Su Yunbai said. "It's safe here. Once I've established myself in Chaoge, I'll bring you over."

A hint of reluctance flashed in Daji's eyes.

But she didn't cry or make a scene, nor did she try to stop her.

She simply nestled gently into Su Yunbai's arms.

"Yunbai, go ahead."

"I will wait for you in Jizhou."

"But promise me you'll come back safely."

Su Yunbai hugged her tightly.

I promise you.

The two embraced for a moment.

Su Yunbai retrieved the Life-Creating Pill.

"Keep this pill safe. If you encounter any critical injuries, taking it can save your life."

Daji took it and carefully put it away.

"I'll leave one for Xiaowu too," Su Yunbai said. "You two can look after each other while I'm gone."

"Um."

Su Yunbai stayed with Daji for a while longer.

Then I went to see Jiang Xiaowu.

Xiao Wu is currently cultivating.

Upon seeing Su Yunbai arrive, she stopped her practice and stood up.

"Owner."

Su Yunbai waved his hand: "In private, just call me Yunbai."

Xiao Wu blushed slightly: "Yun Bai."

Su Yunbai gave her the pill and explained its purpose.

He also told her that he was going to Chaoge soon.

Xiao Wu's reaction was similar to Daji's.

We are concerned, but we will not stop it.

"I will protect Daji and protect Jizhou," Xiao Wu said firmly. "Master... Yunbai, you can go in peace."

Su Yunbai nodded.

With Xiao Wu around, along with the Iron Blood Army, the safety of Jizhou has greatly increased.

After arranging the family affairs.

Su Yunbai returned to his room.

He needs to carefully plan his trip to Chaoge.

King Zhou was a time traveler and knew the plot of the Investiture of the Gods.

But Su Yunbai's appearance has already changed too much.

Daji did not enter the palace.

The Beihai region was pacified ahead of schedule.

Bixiao became a Daoist couple.

How will King Zhou deal with these variables?

Although the two are allies, there is a hierarchy within an alliance.

Su Yunbai did not want to be a pawn.

He wants to be a chess player.

"Strength, and more strength."

he murmured.

At the early stage of Quasi-Saint, he was already considered a powerful figure in the world of Investiture of the Gods.

But even compared to a sage, they are still no match.

We must break through the mid-term as soon as possible.

Even later on.

There are still lingering feelings, requiring continued nurturing and evolution.

The plan for the Human Race's Investiture of the Gods is about to begin...

While I was pondering this.

Suddenly, a thought struck me.

[Ding! Detected that your bound Daoist partner 'Bixiao' has used a 'Cultivation Enhancement Card'!]

[Bixiao's cultivation is breaking through: Taiyi Golden Immortal → Early Stage of Daluo Golden Immortal!]

Breakthrough successful! Foundation solidified!

[The Dao Companion's strength has increased, providing feedback to the host: Comprehension of the Law of Love +5%!]

[Current understanding of the law: 42%!]

Su Yunbai's eyes lit up.

Bixiao has broken through!

Great Golden Immortal!

This greatly increased her ability to protect herself, and she was no longer at the bottom among the Three Immortal Sisters.

Moreover, the insights he gained from the feedback made him more confident in breaking through to the mid-stage of Quasi-Saint.

"very good."

Su Yunbai was in a good mood.

He sat down cross-legged.

Begin adjusting your breathing.

Now that Bixiao has broken through, he should hurry up and seize the opportunity.

Mid-stage Quasi-Saint.

Tonight.

Night falls.

Su Yunbai set up a barrier in the room.

His aura was completely concealed.

He began to challenge the bottleneck.

The fundamental laws of emotion flow within the body.

The insights gained from the system feedback are ingrained in my mind.

His cultivation level began to rise naturally.

There were no earth-shattering phenomena.

Only a restrained and profound transformation.

One night passed.

At dawn.

Su Yunbai opened his eyes.

Its aura is as deep and profound as the sea.

Mid-stage Quasi-Saint.

It became.

He felt the immense power within him.

It is at least three times stronger than in the early stages.

My understanding of the principles has also become more profound.

"Now we have more confidence to go to Chaoge."

Su Yunbai removed the barrier.

He pushed open the door and went out.

a new day.

This also marks the beginning of a new journey for him.

I just walked into the front yard.

A personal guard came to report.

"Young master, an envoy from Chaoge has arrived outside the manor."

Su Yunbai raised an eyebrow.

"Who is it?"

"Deng Zhong, a general under Grand Tutor Wen Zhong."

Su Yunbai smiled.

Wen Zhong sent someone over.

It seems that Chaoge can't wait any longer.

"please."

He straightened his robes and walked towards the front hall.

The chess game in Chaoge.

Su Yunbai has arrived.
