Di Tianzheng led Xiahou Dongjun into the main hall.

A light, chilly breeze blew in, and Wang Zhenguo, dressed in a black velvet robe, was already there drinking tea and reading the newspaper. He looked up at Xiahou Dongjun and exchanged pleasantries.

"Can't the woman in red just stay quiet for a couple of days?"

"Do you have to hold events for birthday celebrations?"

Xiahou Dongjun smiled and said, "She can't stay idle."

After she finished speaking, she glanced outside the hall.

After lunch, all the tables were moved away.

Many workers began to get busy, trying to finish building the grand feast scene before 5 p.m.

In the side hall.

The woman in red sat on a black wooden chair with her legs crossed, holding a teapot. Chen Wan'er and Zhou Ruo sat beside her. The other disciples were not allowed to enter.

On a leisurely afternoon, the woman in red praised Chen Wan'er.

"Having lived in seclusion for decades, thankfully my skills haven't diminished."

"Everything depends on tonight."

Chen Wan'er smiled slightly and said, "It's all thanks to Master's skill."

The woman in red closed her eyes and murmured, "This is Li Qianzhi's only chance in her life to prove herself."

"Let's hope he doesn't mess things up."

Chen Wan'er couldn't help but ask, "What about Jiahao then?"

"I'll take that child into the Women's Home," the woman in red said with a light laugh. "I'll make an exception this time."

"Being surrounded by young women every day might at most cause one to change color, but it won't necessarily corrupt one."

Chen Wan'er laughed and said, "Beauty is something that comes from the genes of that family."

"Wrong," the woman in red laughed. "All men who can breathe are lecherous."

"Look at Shi Xincheng. He's usually so cautious and afraid of being misunderstood about his stance. But now that he's heard that Bai Yi is coming, he's come running like a puppy, not afraid of anything at all."

Chen Wan'er and Zhou Ruo stood aside, smiling apologetically.

The woman in red then asked Chen Wan'er, "Have you been in contact with the woman in white recently?"

Chen Wan'er shook her head and said, "Very few."

The woman in red said calmly, "Stop associating with those unstable individuals. They're always destroying other people's families, especially you. I've heard that she's been harboring feelings for you all these years."

After saying that, the woman in red crossed her legs and said with a cold expression, "Back then, you almost ruined the foundation of my Women's Academy."

"It's one thing for her to have a harem on her own turf, but she's even interfering in my home!"

"And you!"

The woman in red looked at Zhou Ruo and said sternly, "Don't you dare get involved with her like that!"

Zhou Ru blushed and lowered her head.

Suddenly, Chen Wan'er asked softly, "Master, do you think Shi Xincheng might have even bigger ambitions?"

"What do you mean?" The woman in red turned her head to meet her gaze.

Chen Wan'er couldn't help but laugh and said, "If he can really win over Bai Yi, wouldn't that be equivalent to having Bai Yi's harem?"

"Hmph." The man in red scoffed, "Can that old man's body handle it?"

"If we actually manage to get it done for him, we'll sell his specially made 'Hehuan Pill' for 10 each!"

suddenly.

Chen Wan'er suddenly changed the subject, smiling as she said, "Then, Master, if everything goes smoothly, won't your child be able to see the light of day again tonight?"

Upon hearing this, the previously cheerful atmosphere vanished abruptly.

Zhou Ruo glanced at Chen Wan'er in disbelief, thinking, how dare she mention that? That's Master's Achilles' heel.

The meaning behind this statement could very well anger the master.

The reason Chen Wan'er asked this was simply because she was worried that her child's birth would affect Chen Shi, implying that her son was a bad seed!

Thinking about this, Zhou Ruo's palms were already sweating!

But Chen Wan'er continued to smile and look at the woman in red, her eyes fixed straight ahead.

The woman in red narrowed her eyes slightly and said, "Having a child makes a difference; it also makes you bolder."

Chen Wan'er gently stroked the white hair on her cheek and said, "What is there to fear for a dying person?"

The woman in red's smile vanished, and she said indifferently, "He will come out when the time comes; you don't need to worry about him."

This ambiguous answer caused Chen Wan'er's smile to fade. She stood up and said, "Then, Master, I'll take my leave now."

The woman in red nodded and watched Chen Wan'er leave.

Zhou Ruo, who was standing to the side, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The woman in red glanced at her and said, "Are you nervous?"

Zhou Ruo's expression changed slightly, and she said, "Because I feel that Wan'er said some things she shouldn't have."

The woman in red suddenly smiled meaningfully and shook her head, saying, "There's nothing in this world that can't be said."

"That's what I admire most about Wan'er."

Zhou Ruo quickly bowed her head and said, "Please enlighten me, Master."

The woman in red said, "She is telling me that Chen Shi is her whole life for the rest of her days."

"She is capable of anything if anyone harms Chen Shi."

"on the contrary."

The woman in red patted the chair and sighed, "She's willing to do anything to help Chen Shi."

"She never forgot her place, a chess piece, a knife, but at the same time she also had the perspective of the player. However, because of her level of understanding, because of that good-for-nothing Di Yun, she could never become the player."

"She's telling me how to make her obey."

The woman in red was filled with regret as she said these words.

Zhou Ruo knew her master's attitude, because she had told her personal disciple more than once that if Wan'er had cultivated diligently to this point and stayed in the Women's Academy to improve her aptitude, then she would be the next dean of the Women's Academy.

None of you are as good as her.

These words were very provocative, intended to provoke everyone into fighting against Chen Wan'er, but only one person fell for it: Li Qianzhi, who wasn't even a direct disciple.

If everything had ended six months ago, and she had only defeated Li Qianzhi, who was nobody, then no one would have thought she was amazing.

Only now, as the curtain is slowly being lifted, do people realize just how insane she was.

……

Undercurrents are swirling among the powerful figures.

The young people are also getting to know each other.

After Chen Shi finished eating and drinking, he prepared to cultivate. The others did the same, not wanting to waste any opportunity to open their absorption state.

There are three Imperial Palaces here, which are like gyms and can be used by people. Chen Shiwang and his friends went in, and Jiang Cheng and Mu Yuan, the two new generation from the Far North Continent and the Women's Academy, arrived.

Mu Yuan has a very special appearance, with a pair of fox eyes. She should have a captivating and alluring look, but she always gives people the feeling that her eyes are arrogant and that she looks at people as if she is provoking them.

Jiang Cheng was somewhat introverted. He would practice alone in the training ground and would move away whenever someone came, without even looking at them. Just when everyone thought he was socially awkward, Mu Yuan went straight up to tease Jiang Cheng.

"Brother Jiang Cheng, why are you practicing alone?"

The graceful, fox-eyed girl walked towards him.

Everyone thought Jiang Cheng was an honest and introverted child, but to their surprise, he said, "Auntie, stop messing around."

Mu Yuan immediately revealed her true colors, yelling, "Are you crazy?!"

"Who should I call 'Auntie'?"

Jiang Cheng glanced at her with droopy eyelids, then said, "Auntie!"

Mu Yuan yelled, "I wonder who would marry someone like you in the future!"

Jiang Cheng shrugged, a smug look on his face, and said, "Anyway, no one would marry an aunt!"

"I'll kill you!" Mu Yuan threw a punch at Jiang Cheng, which even created a sonic boom.

Jiang Cheng curled his lip in disdain, not even bothering to dodge. Just as his fist was about to land, his body was covered by white spatial elements. He flashed and appeared on the horizon, stretching his neck and saying in a sarcastic tone, "Short-legged auntie is too slow."

Mu Yuan screamed, "I'll kill you!"
