Starting with warding off evil and disaster, one can ascend to immortality after countless tribulati

Emerging from the secret realm, Tinglan and Zhuyu exchanged a glance.

His eyes held a complex mix of joy and sorrow.

Imperial Prefecture.

Luo Yushu sensed Jiang Ming's return, rubbed his temples, and looked helpless. "His comprehension is a bit lacking. I thought three years would be more than enough."

I never imagined it would take you almost five years…

Although it was somewhat of a sarcastic remark, Luo Yushu didn't take it to heart.

Anyway, once the Daoist aura is dispelled, Zhu Yu and Ting Lan will cease to exist, and she will remain unaffected.

You can continue to observe from your own perspective whether Jiang Ming is worthy of being your Daoist partner...

"You have already mastered the Yin-Yang Heretical Path. Other cultivators also practice this heretical path. When you encounter it in the future, you will naturally sense it."

There is very direct competition between those of the same heretical sect, so you must be extremely careful.

After giving him some instructions, Luo Yushu did not keep Jiang Ming any longer.

He was allowed to leave the Imperial Preceptor's residence and return to his lodgings to begin his breakthrough to the Purple Mansion Realm.

Five years had passed, and Cheng Ya and Ye Tao's cultivation levels had improved slightly.

Most importantly, influenced by the Imperial Preceptor, the two also began to cultivate other unorthodox practices and achieved some success.

"You're finally back! For a while now, our doorstep was practically worn down by the crowds. But lately, we've been a bit short of people."

Many princes and grandsons of the emperor have heard that you have gained the favor of the imperial advisor.

Furthermore, he lingered in the Imperial Preceptor's residence for several years, seemingly harboring thoughts of winning him over.

I remember that among those who came were two princes and a princess…”

Hearing Ye Tao's complaint, Jiang Ming raised an eyebrow.

I never imagined so many things would happen while I was away.

"The Third Prince was very kind and even gave us a lot of cultivation resources, but Sister Ye Tao refused to accept them no matter what."

But he wasn't angry and would come every few days.

It can be said that this is the most sincere one.

The second prince was rather arrogant. He only came once, and when my sister Ye Tao and I confiscated his things, he scolded us for not knowing what was good for us.

After all, he is a prince, and we cannot afford to offend him, so we can only silently endure it.

And that princess is also quite bizarre. She came here wanting you to be her husband. She seems to be the crown prince's younger sister.

The reason they want to win you over is probably to solidify their position as your elder brother.

She comes every few days, and seems very persistent..." she said, recounting her experiences over this period with a sorrowful expression.

Cheng Ya's face was full of bitterness, as if she had thought of something. She silently raised a finger, "Oh right, there's also that Yan Kuan."

He was also very eccentric, constantly shouting that he wanted to compete with you.

However, after waiting for two years without seeing you emerge from the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion, he broke through to the Purple Mansion Realm and succeeded not long ago.

He is the fastest among us disciples who listened to the National Master's sermons to break through to the Purple Mansion Realm.

Besides, Song Tianshi from Yongzhou has also broken through to the Purple Mansion Realm.

Hearing Cheng Ya mention this, Ye Tao felt a little sad.

"Song Tianshi and Hua Ying were childhood sweethearts. After breaking through to the Purple Mansion Realm, Song Tianshi abandoned Hua Ying for his future career."

She had married a princess in the court, and now her child could walk…” Seeing Ye Tao looking at her intentionally or unintentionally.

Jiang Ming immediately understood, shook his head, and looked sincere.

"Don't worry, I'm not that kind of person. Both of you are indispensable treasures to me..."

"How cheesy! How disgusting!" Although her face was full of joy, Cheng Ya never listened to such sweet words and immediately scolded her.

Although her tone was fierce, Cheng Ya's actions were very genuine.

She quietly approached, took Jiang Ming's arm, and said with longing in her eyes, "When we achieve success in our cultivation in the future..."

And having successfully survived the great calamity of a thousand years, let's find a blessed land to live in seclusion.

When the time comes, we'll have one child. Sister Ye Tao has a big bottom, so let her have several. Sister Ao Shu isn't from our clan, so she probably won't be able to have any.

"Youyou's a bit slow, she'll probably only know how to give birth, not how to raise a child. Let her have one too..."

Taking Jiang Ming's other arm, Ye Tao gave Cheng Ya a slightly resentful look and said sullenly, "You're not young either. Giving you one child is too good for you. It would be better if you had a hundred..."

"Alright, let me check if you're right." Jiang Ming stretched out his large hand, in a good mood, intending to spend some time with his two Daoist partners before starting his breakthrough.

Before we could get to the point, Frost Immortal arrived.

Seeing Jiang Ming with women on his left and right, his hands already starting to wander, she immediately realized what was happening and awkwardly scratched her head.

"I've come at the wrong time. Farewell."

"Wait, what is it? Speak quickly, I need to prepare for seclusion..." Jiang Ming said kindly, wiping the water off his hands.

People don't visit temples without a reason. Master Han Shuang must have encountered some difficulties this time. I'll take this opportunity to help him solve them and make a good connection.

That way, even if I don't return to Tongzhou in the future.

The Wanfa School can also flourish unaffected.

Coming to his senses, he bowed respectfully and explained frankly without hiding anything, "I have offended a celestial official."

I've heard that person has quite a powerful background, and I'm worried that this might affect you all, so I'm informing you all of this.

"I'm afraid it's not as simple as just informing them. You want me to help you solve it? Tell me your reasons first. If they make sense, I'll consider helping you..." Jiang Ming probed, sizing up Frost Immortal.

Based on his understanding of Frost Immortal, this person was not a troublemaker.

Although he is somewhat opportunistic, his nature is still acceptable.

They won't do anything to provoke others.

Now that they have offended powerful figures, there must be another reason behind it.

"I can't hide it from you, Fellow Daoist Jiang, this matter is indeed not my fault." With a slightly aggrieved sigh, Frost Immortal's usually cold and aloof face revealed a hint of emotion.

"The person I offended was a prince, I heard he was the youngest son of the King of Liangzhou, and because he was so favored, he had been cultivating in the capital."

Now, he has reached the peak of Foundation Establishment. This person is obsessed with women and has a rather strange preference: he only likes mature women.

I... I unfortunately caught his eye, and he kept bothering me. Last time, I just couldn't take it anymore.

I taught him a lesson, but he said I had hurt his resolve and threatened to send people to cause me trouble unless I was willing to be toyed with.

Yesterday, I wanted to purchase some resources to solidify my heretical cultivation, but I was told that I had been blacklisted by all the major merchant guilds in the capital.

I won't buy anything that I want to buy.

Moreover, this person also found out the background of the people around me, so even if I asked someone to buy it for me, I couldn't get the cultivation resources I needed.

Now, he's harassing me again, threatening to retaliate against the disciples of the Water Moon Sect if I don't comply...

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ming's mind went blank; this was simply too bizarre.

The Frost Immortal is over two hundred years old.

She was definitely not young at that age. Although she took good care of herself and her figure and appearance were still quite good, there were countless beauties in the Imperial Music Bureau.

Has this person gone mad?

Why would they be willing to pay such a high price to cause trouble?

Cheng Ya's face twitched, and she couldn't help but comment out of her straightforwardness, "This person is really shameless. If Master Han Shuang agrees, how will he conduct himself in the future..."

The key question is, isn't he afraid of becoming a laughingstock?

With a sigh, Ye Tao realized she had never heard of such a thing either.

She had seen perverts before, such as Jiang Ming.

But all of this, at least, is consensual, with one party willing to give and the other willing to receive.

Even when Jiang Ming made unreasonable demands, she was willing to reluctantly comply.

But this prince went a bit too far.

It is despicable to turn your back on someone if they don't agree to your advances.

Hearing everyone's comments, Frost Immortal felt a warmth in his heart, and said bitterly, "If you have a way to help, please do me this once."

"After returning to Tongzhou, the Shuiyue Sect will never forget their kindness..."

"What's this prince's name? Give me some time, I'll take care of him."

After pondering for a moment, Jiang Ming, having been a transmigrator, had some understanding of this typical person with a repressed aura.

Such people have predictable preferences; once they understand the other person's family background, Jiang Ming has a way to scare them away without using the title of Imperial Advisor.

"This man's name is Yuwen Jie, the son of the governor of Liangzhou. That's all I know." With no other option, Master Han Shuang had to tell Jiang Ming what he knew and had no choice but to believe him.

She took out several treasures from her storage bag and tentatively spoke, her attitude sincere, "Fellow Daoist Jiang, you are probably about to break through to the Purple Mansion Realm."

"Here's the Purple Mansion Pill, a priceless treasure of the Water Moon Sect, as a small token of my appreciation..."

Seeing how sensible Frost Immortal was, Jiang Ming laughed heartily.

They were then teleported to Liangzhou.

Upon arriving in Liangzhou, Jiang Ming went straight to the city lord's mansion to visit Prefect Yuwen Huaiping.

He and Yuwen Huai'an were brothers born of the same parents.

Jiang Ming had heard Yuwen Huai'an mention it when he was in Tongzhou.

So after Jiang Ming revealed the name, he immediately met Yuwen Huaiping. Unlike other prefects, he was not wearing official robes.

He was dressed simply in cool, casual clothes, but he looked dashing and heroic.

"Young man, you said you had something to tell you. Tell me what it is."

"After I state my request, please don't misunderstand, senior, and let me finish speaking."

Nodding, Yuwen Huaiping gave Jiang Ming's request face and agreed.

Seeing this, Jiang Ming went straight to the point, "Could I meet your wives?"

"How dare you!" Yuwen Huaiping shouted sternly. If Jiang Ming hadn't given him a heads-up beforehand, he would have wanted to tear him to pieces.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ming cupped his hands in apology. The other party was a cultivator at the Purple Mansion Realm, and his strength was not to be underestimated, so he dared not keep him in suspense.

He stated his intentions directly, seemingly with a hint of stirring up trouble: "Someone is eyeing your wife, and I'd like to meet her to verify their suspicions."

"Rest assured, I have received kindness from your own brother Yuwen Huai'an, and I would never speak without reason..."

He clenched his fists, suppressing his anger.

With a cold snort, Yuwen Huaiping ordered his servants to summon his wives over.

The governor of Liangzhou was not particularly lecherous; he had only three wives. The first to arrive was his eldest wife, Liu Yao. Her amber eyes were full of charm, and she was clearly a local beauty from Liangzhou.

No, this person bears no resemblance whatsoever to the Frost Immortal.

Next was the second wife. She was relatively petite with thin lips, and she looked like she had a mean-spirited nature.

"That's not it either," Jiang Ming shook his head, withdrew his gaze, and looked at Yuwen Huaiping apologetically.

With a wave of his hand, he summoned the Third Madam. Jiang Ming's eyes lit up, and he was momentarily surprised!

This person bears a striking resemblance to Frost Immortal, reaching a full 90%!

The only significant difference is that this person's figure is much better than that of Frost Immortal; she has a slender waist, large breasts, and plump hips, making her a true beauty.

"I understand, sir. There are some things that are not convenient for others to know. Can we discuss them privately...?" Although he didn't understand what Jiang Ming meant.

However, since they had already cooperated to this extent, Yuwen Huaiping did not make things difficult for them. After dismissing the ladies, he reluctantly asked further questions.

"If you can't give a suitable reason, even if Yuwen Huai'an comes to plead for you, I will break your legs and crush all your bones..."

After issuing a cold threat, Yuwen Huaiping sat down in his chair, crossed his legs, and adopted an arrogant posture.

"Senior, is Yuwen Jie the child of that lady?" Jiang Ming sighed and asked the question directly.

"Second Madam, what's wrong?" she replied curtly, realizing that the matter was probably related to her youngest son.

Yuwen Huaiping frowned, looking eager to hear more.

That's alright, he's not completely twisted, there's still hope.

After muttering to himself for a moment, Jiang Ming stopped hiding anything and recounted everything Yuwen Jie had done. He then added, "Yuwen Jie probably has some unusual feelings for the Third Madam."

Otherwise, they wouldn't have done something so crazy...

"Bring that female cultivator here." Without saying much, Yuwen Huaiping's eyes were full of anger. He already believed the whole story to be 70-80%.

That bastard is an unfilial son.

After the second wife gave birth, she did not have enough milk to feed the child.

Yuwen Jie was raised by the Third Madam. The Third Madam had no sons, and in recent years her feelings for him had gradually cooled.

Could it be because I sent Yuwen Jie to the capital?

You son of a bitch, you beast!

Though his face showed no outward signs of distress, Yuwen Huaiping's heart was in turmoil.

Many things that were unclear in the past suddenly became clear at this moment.

Once Jiang Ming brings Master Han Shuang to confirm that this story is not fabricated, he will demonstrate what it means for a tiger to be so vicious as to eat its own cubs...

The teleportation array leading to the imperial city is quite expensive to activate.

But Yuwen Huai'an, who was already under a green grassland on his head, didn't care about any of that and directly sent Jiang Ming to the capital alone.

When Yuwen Huaiping brought Han Shuang Zhenren over, he merely glanced at him.

My mood instantly turned extremely cold.

"Let's go. Don't interfere in this matter anymore, and don't spread it around. I'll handle my family affairs..."

"If anyone else talks about this, don't blame me for being impolite..." After making this threat, Yuwen Huaiping personally saw the guests off.

At the same time, they stepped onto the teleportation array leading to the imperial city.

now.

In the Imperial Music Bureau, Yuwen Jie lay nestled among soft, fragrant jade.

His fingers teased incessantly, and he scolded like a dog trainer, "You're so noisy, call me Daddy."

As soon as she finished speaking, the courtesans of the Jiaofangsi (Imperial Music Bureau) immediately responded obediently.

This sight filled Yuwen Jie with immense pleasure.

Just as he was preparing to regroup and try again, the door was suddenly kicked open. At the same time, Yuwen Jie instantly went limp and said tremblingly.

"father?"
