The charming widow of the Marquis's mansion: The stable boy carries the flag and raises the dra

The Taoist Xuanzhen stroked his beard, smiling as he looked up at the golden figure rising higher and higher.

He looked at Wang Long and smiled.

"Holy Son, it's alright if you can't return within a year or two! We'll just participate in the next selection competition!"

"With two Heavenly Sovereigns now overseeing the Primordial Holy Palace, I have no hurry whatsoever!"

Wang Long glanced down at him and couldn't help but laugh.

That old guy is quite easygoing.

The Primordial Holy Palace is now stable, so there's no rush.

He patted Xiao Qiu's neck and whispered.

"Little Chirp, let's go."

Upon hearing this, Little Chick flapped its wings violently, and its golden form, like a shooting star, streaked through the morning mist and soared into the sky.

It quickly transformed into a golden dot of light in the sky and disappeared above the clouds.

The wind whistled in my ears, the clouds churned beneath me, and the world stretched out before me.

Ye Niannu leaned against Wang Long's chest, looked up at the azure sky, took a deep breath, and sighed.

"My lord, I never dared to dream of such a life before."

"Being able to go wherever I want, and having you by my side, is just wonderful."

Wang Long looked down at her, raised his hand to tuck her wind-blown hair behind her ear, and said softly.

"The days ahead are long, and no matter what happens, I will be by your side."

Ye Niannu smiled broadly and snuggled against him.

The two of them cuddled together like a couple deeply in love.

The little bird flew for about half an hour when Ye Niannu suddenly looked up.

She blinked her peach blossom eyes, looked around, then at Wang Long, with a hint of doubt.

"My lord, this isn't the direction to Daqian, is it?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Long paused slightly and remained silent for a moment.

Ye Niannu noticed that his expression was strange and straightened up from his embrace.

She tilted her head and looked at him with curiosity in her eyes, but did not urge him.

Silently awaiting Wang Long's reply.

Wang Long took a deep breath and looked at her calmly.

"Niannu, there is something I need to tell you, but I haven't had the chance to say it yet at the Primordial Holy Palace."

Ye Niannu blinked and nodded obediently.

"My lord, you speak, I am listening."

Wang Long lowered his eyes, as if he was carefully considering his words.

"Before participating in the Warring States Period, I visited the Wenxin Academy..."

He then told Ye Niannu everything that had happened.

Wang Long looked up at Ye Niannu, not avoiding her gaze.

After the words were spoken, there was a moment of silence on Xiao Qiu's back, with only the sound of the wind still whistling in her ears.

Ye Niannu looked at Wang Long and remained silent for two breaths.

She burst out laughing.

The laughter was clear and soft, with a hint of teasing and mischief, and her peach blossom eyes curved into crescent moons.

"My lord, I thought it was something important, but it's just this?"

Wang Long was stunned for a moment.

"You don't mind?"

He thought Ye Niannu was just saying it, but that she still cared about it.

Therefore, I am very afraid that Ye Niannu will be sad and upset.

Ye Niannu reached out and cupped his face, gently pinching it.

"Haven't I said it many times before? How could someone like my lord only have me as his woman?"

"The fact that you're willing to tell me shows that you care about me, and that's enough."

"My lord, please don't always think of me as so narrow-minded, okay?"

She withdrew her hand, nestled back into his arms, her voice softening as she spoke coquettishly.

This almost made Wang Long lose control and have sex with Ye Niannu on Xiao Qiu's back.

"She must be a very good person to stand by you through such perilous times as the struggle for supremacy among dynasties. My lord, you must treat her well and not let her down."

Wang Long felt a surge of warmth in his heart and lowered his head to kiss her forehead.

"Niannu, you really are..."

"I'm truly the best woman in the world, aren't I?"

Ye Niannu tilted her head back from his embrace, smiling like a smug little fox.

Wang Long laughed at her joke and hugged her even tighter.

"Yes, I've met the best woman in the world."

The little chirp let out a low chirp, as if in agreement.

Golden wings pierced through the clouds, speeding towards Wenxin Academy.

Little Chick flies extremely fast, its golden wings piercing through layers of clouds.

Ye Niannu leaned against Wang Long's chest, her peach blossom eyes slightly narrowed, enjoying this unprecedented freedom.

"My lord, what kind of place is Wenxin Academy? As for that young lady Xu Wanyun, you said she is a Confucian scholar, but I have never had any dealings with Confucian scholars before."

Ye Niannu raised her head, her voice filled with curiosity and anticipation.

Wang Long looked down at her and smiled.

"Wenxin Academy is a very nice place. Wanyun is a gentle and kind girl. You'll see when you meet her."

"And then there's Jiaojiao, my daughter. She's very clever; she'll probably try to talk to you the moment she sees you."

Ye Niannu chuckled upon hearing this.

"Then I'd better prepare a gift for our meeting; I can't lose face in front of your daughter."

As the two were chatting and laughing, the outline of a continuous range of green mountains gradually appeared below the clouds.

The little chirp let out a short, clear cry, folded its wings slightly, and began to descend.

The mountain gate of Wenxin Academy comes into view.

Little Chirp folded its wings and landed steadily in the square in front of the Wenxin Academy's mountain gate.

At the mountain gate, the gatekeeper disciples had already rushed in to report the news.

In less than the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea, Shen Qianqiu arrived with great speed, followed by a large group of instructors and disciples who had rushed over upon hearing the news.

"Brother Wang!"

Shen Qianqiu's voice arrived before he did, and it was full of joy.

He rushed to the square, taking two steps at a time, and looked Wang Long up and down.

Just as he was about to catch up, Ye Niannu's figure followed closely behind, landing lightly beside Wang Long.

Ye Niannu wore a light green dress, her black hair cascading down her back, her eyes and brows exuding a charm that was both alluring and aloof.

The faint aura emanating from him seemed to freeze the temperature of the entire square for a moment.

Shen Qianqiu's laughter stopped abruptly.

He stood frozen in place, mouth agape, his forward-stepping posture frozen in place, his cloudy old eyes fixed on Ye Niannu, his pupils contracting violently.

A series of muffled "uh-uh" sounds came from his throat, as if something was blocking his throat, and it took him a long time to squeeze out a complete sentence.

"The Supreme Realm?!"

Although he was also at the Supreme Realm, Ye Niannu in front of him was still too frightening.

Moreover, she is both beautiful and strong.

Could this be another of Brother Wang's women?

Shen Qianqiu thought he was overthinking it. How could this be?

Upon hearing this, the group of instructors and disciples behind him instantly erupted in a commotion, with exclamations rising and falling.

Everyone instinctively took a few steps back, their eyes filled with shock as they looked at Ye Niannu.

"Brother Wang... and this is...?"

Shen Qianqiu's voice was somewhat unsteady. He swallowed hard, his gaze shifting back and forth between Wang Long and Ye Niannu several times before finally managing to find his voice again.

Wang Long patted his robes, put his arm around Ye Niannu's waist, and smiled frankly.

"Brother Shen, this is Ye Niannu, my Daoist partner, the Holy Maiden of the Primordial Holy Palace."

He spoke casually, as if he were simply remarking that the weather was nice today.

Among the group of instructors and disciples behind him, someone's book fell to the ground with a "thud," and several other young disciples looked at each other, their lips moving but no sound coming out.

The Holy Maiden of the Primordial Holy Palace.

A powerhouse at the Supreme Realm!

Is she Wang Long's Daoist partner?!
