Fairy, please step aside, I've taken a liking to your man.

"I do not know."

Wan Lin shook his head slightly, and the Emperor snorted angrily, "You don't know?"

"I truly do not know."

Wan Lin acted as if he were a dead pig unafraid of boiling water, which infuriated the Emperor.

Wanlin's ability to remain in power for a thousand years is naturally due to its caution.

Since the conflict between the Sixth Princess and the Ninth Prince was involved, he naturally stayed far away.

Who knows who the Emperor really wants to be the crown prince?

Those who chose the wrong side are probably already buried under a mountain of weeds.

This information is known even to ordinary people, so it's safe to say that the Ninth Prince's reputation as a good-for-nothing is undeniable, but the Emperor's heart is unpredictable.

Who knows if the emperor might soften his heart and pity his son?

Nobody can say for sure.

Despite the fact that the Sixth Princess currently holds a significant advantage, and despite the fact that the Emperor regained the throne with great effort from the Sixth Princess, the Emperor might still fear that this daughter of his might become a rebellious son like Emperor Qian Yuan.

"How is the research on the cursed meteorite by the Dugu Supremes?"

The Emperor, too lazy to scold Wan Lin, turned his attention to the matter of the cursed meteorite.

"The Supreme Beings have now confirmed that the other party is at least a Supreme Being, and is very likely a Human Immortal."

However, after the spiritual energy was restored, we only found traces of the immortals, but never actually saw them. So we have no idea who they are or where they are.

Furthermore, the other party can only influence Blue Star by using cursed meteorites, so it is likely that the same was true for Qiyuan Star back then. In that case, it is not very convenient for the other party to act, and it is very likely that they are not in this world, or that they are trapped in some kind of restriction.

The Supreme Beings have reason to suspect that the other party's desire to exterminate humanity might be related to their path to immortality. The more humans they curse and kill, the stronger their power might become.

... "

During those three years, the Transcending Tribulation Supremes were not idle; instead, they emerged from seclusion and carefully analyzed everything that Supreme Dugu and Supreme Huadun had witnessed.

Because they didn't want Earth to repeat the same mistakes, the Tribulation Supremes, for once, put aside their past grudges and prejudices and spent several years analyzing the situation.

"How do the Supreme Beings plan to defend themselves?"

The Emperor was also somewhat worried. He had finally regained his throne, but now Blue Star had been targeted by a lunatic who seemed to be a human immortal.

"The cursed aura of the cursed meteorite has been simulated by the Supremes. After communicating with Master Marco, they are preparing to set up a planetary detection array in the atmosphere of Blue Star."

Any abnormal meteorite that enters the atmosphere of Earth will be captured by it.

Master Marco calls it the Starlink project.

Wan Lin paused for a moment, then said, "This Starlink project is very expensive."

How much does it cost?

The emperor didn't react for a moment.

"A minimum of 1 trillion spirit stones!"

The Emperor is numb.

Damn it, can I get that unfilial son to take over for me for a while?

"Make those small countries pay more; it's protection money!"

The emperor thought about it and felt that this responsibility did not only belong to large countries, but smaller countries should also bear more of it.

"Yes, ma'am."

Wan Lin responded and left.

The emperor sat in his study for a long time, and finally sighed.

"Issue an imperial decree summoning Xiao Jiu back to the capital; his mother misses him."

……

In the Shen Mansion.

The massive spiritual tide that lasted for three years had no impact on the Shen family.

On the contrary, everyone quietly strengthened themselves during these three years.

On this day, a long-awaited visitor arrived.

"Qianqian, what brings you here?"

An Li was quite surprised to see her classmate Ye Qianqian, whom she hadn't seen in a long time, in the reception room.

Ye Qianqian was already 38 years old at this time.

The once-genius girl from Qingbei Daoyuan has become much more dignified and mature, but the cunning of yesteryear can still be seen in her eyes.

"What? You're not welcome?"

Ye Qianqian snorted, "Madam Shen's cultivation is quite good now, she's already at the Nascent Soul stage. It seems that the private lessons Shen Bai gave you were indeed very effective."

Back then, everyone started from the same point, and An Li was even worse than him. But in just 20 years, An Li has completely surpassed him.

"Qianqian, your talent is also very high! You've already reached the Great Perfection of the Golden Core stage!"

An Li looked at Ye Qianqian's cultivation level and sighed.

To be honest, Ye Qianqian is truly talented. Although her own talent is also quite good, she has made such rapid progress mainly through dual cultivation with Shen Bai.

"They're still way behind you guys!"

Ye Qianqian looked unhappy. Her eyes darted around, and finally she couldn't help but ask, "Where's Shen Bai? Why hasn't he come out?"

"My husband is probably teaching the children magic right now."

An Li subtly pointed out something to Ye Qianqian, who pretended not to understand: "Speaking of which, I haven't really seen your son yet. I heard he's already at the eighth level of Qi Refining? That's amazing! Come on, let's go see him together."

Hearing Ye Qianqian praise her son, An Li smiled happily.

She spent all her time in seclusion at the Shen residence cultivating her spiritual practice. It was a rare treat when an old classmate came to visit, and it felt as if she had returned to the days when she was studying at the Qingbei Dao Academy.

The two linked arms and walked together toward the martial arts training ground of the Shen residence.

Upon entering, a clear female voice was heard shouting, "Too slow! Shen Yuan, your Luo Yan Step is too slow!"

Ye Qianqian looked over at the sound and saw a beautiful blonde girl with black eyes attacking a handsome boy.

The young man had a graceful figure and a handsome appearance, somewhat reminiscent of Shen Bai in his younger days.

The boy, despite being scolded by the beautiful girl, showed no impatience; instead, he quickened his pace with the Luo Yan Step.

"He's so handsome! How old is he again? Is he 12?"

Looking at Shen Yuan's handsome face, and then at Shen Bai, who still maintained his peak good looks not far away, Ye Qianqian couldn't help but exclaim, "He's as handsome as his father."

"Of course!"

An Li was filled with pride.

Ye Qianqian glanced around and found that there were actually ten children.

"These are all Shen Bai's children? He's so prolific!"

Ye Qianqian felt like she couldn't keep up with everything.

These children were all handsome boys and pretty girls, and the twins, a brother and sister, were exceptionally beautiful.

There were also two girls, about two or three years old, standing to the side, laughing and imitating boxing. However, these two girls also had blonde hair and black eyes, and they looked about eight or nine points similar to the largest blonde girl with black eyes.

If you don't look closely, you might mistake the two girls for twins, and a smaller version of the older girl.

Five men and five women.

An Li introduced them: "You know Yuan'er. Qing'er is Si Qing's child, Yun'er and Yun'er are His Highness's children, Tian'er is Qing Qing's child, and Wei'er and Ling'er are Hu's children."

"And what about those three blonde, dark-eyed girls? Whose children are they?"

Ye Qianqian clearly grasped the key point.

"Well, their identities will be kept secret for now, but they should be made public soon."

An Li's answer was somewhat vague and she didn't elaborate.

Ye Qianqian knew in her heart that it must be Wanka. She had already guessed Li Bai's identity when they were in the Huangshan Secret Realm last time.

However, she still sidled up to Shen Bai and asked, "Shen Bai, who are your father's children?"

"you guess!"

Seeing Ye Qianqian arrive, Shen Bai called out, "Alright, that's enough for today. Everyone, take a rest!"

The children cheered in unison.

The two little girls cried out and rushed towards Audrey, "Big sister, take us to play with the fish!"

"Okay, okay!"

Audrey showed a different kind of tenderness towards her two younger sisters, who were like porcelain dolls, than she had towards her other younger siblings.

"Hmph, my eldest sister has changed her mind. She only knows how to spoil Catherine and Hepburn."

Shen Yun, who is almost 12 years old, stood aside, looking rather jealous.

Five-year-old Shen Ling put her hands on her hips and said, "Big sister doesn't love me anymore."

"I love you all the same!"

Audrey felt a little guilty. As a 13-year-old girl, she naturally knew that she had treated Catherine and Hepburn differently.

However, she didn't want to. Seeing her two younger sisters reminded her of herself. If it weren't for the significant age difference, she would have thought she, Catherine, and Hepburn were triplets.

To divert her sisters' attention, she politely walked up to Ye Qianqian and said, "Greetings, Aunt Ye."

"Good girl, this is a gift for you. Could you please distribute it to your younger siblings?"

Ye Qianqian took out a storage ring and handed it to Audrey, but Audrey did not take it and instead looked at Shen Bai.

"Please accept this; it's a token of your aunt's appreciation."

"Thank you, Aunt Ye."

Audrey then accepted Ye Qianqian's gift.

Seeing how sensible Audrey was, Ye Qianqian was extremely envious: "I really want a daughter as well-behaved as her."

"She's not only well-behaved, but she also took care of all her younger siblings, and she didn't give Shen Bai and me much trouble."

An Li was extremely satisfied with Audrey, and Shen Bai also praised her highly: "I wouldn't trade my little darling for a whole planet."

"What if I really gave you a planet?"

Ye Qianqian suddenly looked at Shen Bai. Her words startled Shen Bai, and he turned to look at this school beauty who was once as famous as An Li.

Many years have passed, but the school beauty is still the school beauty, as beautiful and pretty as ever.

"It seems you came here this time not just to catch up with An Li."

Shen Bai abruptly changed the subject, saying, "My Shen family has many local specialties. My sister Wenwen's homemade spirit wine is unparalleled throughout Qiyuan Star. I wonder if you, Ye, would be interested in trying it?"

"I would be delighted."

Ye Qianqian looked at An Li with a smile: "An Li, call Wenwen, let's drink together?"

"OK."

An Li smiled broadly: "It's been so many years! We're going to drink until we drop today!"

The group walked towards the mansion together, but Audrey was surrounded by several children.

"Big sister, is this woman also Dad's mistress?"

"What do you mean by 'mistress'? That's called a concubine!"

"They all mean the same thing!"

"Don't talk nonsense. It's not even certain if she's my stepmother. I haven't seen her at home for over ten years. I feel it's more likely she's my mistress."

"Should we tell the mothers that their little sweethearts have come to visit?"

"If you want to get beaten up, go and say so."

……

The children all knew that Shen Bai's old classmate had arrived, and naturally, the mothers in the inner quarters knew as well.

However, everyone was busy with their own things, so no one really cared.

Only Shen Wenwen rushed to the front house with some nervousness.

Why is that little vixen Ye Qianqian here?

Does she still harbor designs on my brother?

Or is it that this scoundrel of an older brother has been dishonest all these years? Did he get Ye Qianqian pregnant out of wedlock?

This is a real headache!
