The improved female villains regained their memories.

"You are the genius, Xiaohan."

Yang Pingsheng didn't care whether Wen Shihan's praise was sincere or not. He smiled and patted her head, "Brother's cultivation level is too low, so I can only start by developing immortal artifacts. After so many experiments, I have roughly figured out the abilities of my immortal artifacts. Now that your spiritual root can be fused with mine, that would be perfect."

"Brother, don't worry, I still have some traces of the Great Dao left. If you need them, I can be your trump card!"

As she spoke, she threw herself into her brother's arms, as naturally as a leaf falling from a tree returning to the soil.

Yang Pingsheng hugged her without any hesitation.

With each breath, the girl's scent filled the air; for a moment, only the rustling of the trees and their heartbeats could be heard.

"Xiao Han," he said after a long pause, "Let's go back."

"Ok!"

As long as he shows warmth, he can go all out, because Wen Shihan's only goal has always been Yang Pingsheng.

On the way back, the air was thick with rain. It had been raining heavily for three days, and today the sun finally came out.

This is all thanks to Luo Benmo's talent; dark clouds always accompany her emotions.

She was so angry because her younger brother bullied her that it rained for three days straight.

But her brother made a unique sculpture, which made her very happy, so today is a sunny day.

Upon returning to the mansion, Yang Pingsheng met the person he had hoped for.

"How long are you planning to keep avoiding me?"

A clear, cold voice drifted on the wind. At the end of the long corridor stood the former goddess. The wind blew her long robes, and her face, unadorned, was fair and flawless. A touch of green clung to her arm, defiantly sticking out its tongue at Yang Pingsheng—that was none other than the loyal blue sky.

Wen Shihan frowned and spoke first, but Yang Pingsheng patted her shoulder and shook his head.

"..."

The chilling aura subsided, and Wen Shihan smiled at his elder brother before disappearing into his shadow.

Song Panning watched coldly: "I never expected you to have such abilities. In just a few days, you've trained this gloomy woman to be as obedient as a dog."

Yang Pingsheng smiled helplessly, knowing that Song Panning was angry, so he took a few steps closer and said, "It's all thanks to you."

"Me? Heh, that has nothing to do with me. Once the followers have the ability, they naturally don't need to listen to the goddess."

The sun, like a jade plate, cast slanting rays upon them. Song Panning stretched out her finger and touched Yang Pingsheng's shoulder.

Yang Pingsheng sighed, moved closer, and kissed Song Panning's lips.

Even time seemed to stand still, leaving only the sound of the wind whistling through the air.

Qingtian stared blankly, as if he were dumbfounded.

Song Panning was stunned for a long time. After she realized what had happened, she suddenly took a few steps back.

"presumptuous!"

As she spoke, her face flushed red, and after a long pause, she managed to utter another sentence.

"presumptuous!!"

With that, she turned and left, leaving only one sentence: "I'll be waiting for your explanation tonight."

This means that she relinquished control over Yang Pingsheng's behavior, allowing him to visit Xu Anlu and Su Murong, as long as Yang Pingsheng was willing to give her an explanation that night.

Goddesses are also easy to coax.

He looked up at the direction the light was coming from, and the golden light filled his eyes. On the eaves, long gray hair fluttered, and the figure rested its chin on its hand, looking at him with a grin.

"Hey, doctor, how are you feeling?"

-------------

Of the current villains, Luo Benmo is the most difficult to deal with because she is strong in combat and unreasonable.

Secondly, there's Song Panning, because she's smart and not easily fooled.

Finally, there's Su Murong.

She was neither as good at fighting as Luo Benmo nor as smart as Song Panning, but she had her own way of doing things. Ever since they met, she had always had a cynical attitude, and all her sadness and memories seemed to be hidden under her smiling face.

He can see through everything, yet he says nothing.

Yang Pingsheng looked around her room. The room was very simple and elegant, with flowers and calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls. It was probably arranged by Siling after Su Murong moved in. The desk near the window faced the corridor of the courtyard. On either side of the corridor were the rooms of Wen Shihan and Yang Pingsheng. It was hard to say what Su Murong's purpose was in choosing this arrangement.

The aroma wafted from the inner room. Yang Pingsheng looked up slightly and saw Su Murong carrying a pot of meat soup out of the inner room, with the transformed Zhuque beside him, carrying fragrant white steamed buns in his arms.

"Doctor, it's almost noon, can you have lunch with me?"

For immortals, eating is just a ritual. When they first became immortals, before Xiaoyu left, everyone would gather together to eat. Later, as more and more female villains came looking for them and the hidden truths were gradually revealed, everyone stopped doing it.

Although they all live in this house, they are actually familiar strangers. They are only able to live in peace because of the bond between them, which is Yang Pingsheng.

Yang Pingsheng nodded and agreed. Su Murong then happily placed the bowl and chopsticks in front of him and poured the scalding hot meat soup into his bowl.

The Vermilion Bird transformed into a small bird and flew to Su Murong's shoulder. Ever since Yang Pingsheng entered the room, it hadn't uttered a single word. Its gaze towards Yang Pingsheng held both wariness and suspicion.

"Doctor, please don't mind. We had limited resources, and your sister took over the kitchen, so this is the best I could do."

As the broth went down his throat, it was oily and simply seasoned, without any complicated flavors. Yang Pingsheng put down his bowl and looked at Su Murong beside him, who seemed to be enjoying her meal.

A steamed bun and a bowl of meat soup—this mortal girl, whose very existence could frighten even a true immortal, could eat so happily.

After the meal, the warm sunlight shone in through the window. Zhuque, in human form, cleared away the dishes and then left, leaving this space to them alone.

"We've had the meal, and we've shown our appreciation, doctor. What's your next step?"

Su Murong rested her cheek on her hand, smiling as she looked at him. Her eyes were hazy, and even her words were tinged with a tipsy feeling, as if she had just drunk not broth, but a strong wine.

"Look, you've beaten your sister into submission and won over that woman, Song Panning, so what are you going to do with me?"

She gestured with her chin and pointed to the bed next to her: "Look, the bed is right there. Why don't you seduce me?"

Yang Pingsheng didn't speak, he just looked at her.

She smiled as she looked at Yang Pingsheng.

After a long pause, Yang Pingsheng spoke.

"Xiao Rong, give me the Tongchen Light."

"Okay."

Su Murong reached into his robes and tossed the Tongchen Light, one of the four great treasures of heaven and earth, to Yang Pingsheng like a ball.

"Is there anything else you need, Doctor?"

"help me."

"Okay."

"I need information about the Wan Jin Merchant Guild."

"Okay."

Without any threats or haggling, Su Murong agreed with exceptionally quick acceptance.

No matter what Yang Pingsheng said, Su Murong's only response was "okay".

She helped Yang Pingsheng, just as Yang Pingsheng had helped her back then.

Chapter 379 Su Murong's Love!

While Yang Pingsheng was taking action, Ling Tiandu was also busy on the other side.

Her figure slowly descended into the valley shrouded in ethereal clouds.

The old monsters of the Guardian Heaven Sect are hiding deep within the sect, each establishing their own world. This valley, shrouded in celestial clouds, hides a certain ancient divine beast.

This divine beast is none other than Bifang, the key divine beast that Ling Tiandu deduced could help her reverse the fate of the world!

This mythical beast is an ancient monster. Its true form resembles a crane, with one leg, red markings, blue body, and a white beak. People call it Bifang. During the ancient war, it resolutely stood on the side of the chosen one, the Yellow Emperor, and protected his chariot, thus making great contributions.

The divine beasts that the Guardian Heaven Sect lives in seclusion rarely come out of the world on their own initiative. They generally do not appear easily unless there is a major incident. Currently, only the Nine-Eight Desolations and the Divine Sparrow are willing to help Ling Tiandu.

However, the severity of this crisis forced Ling Tiandu to seek help from these divine beasts. According to her calculations, she first met with the lucky cat and, after receiving its reply, rushed here to see Bifang.

Lucky Cat and Bifang are two important characters who can help her defeat Shi Guijia, and she must persuade them.

When Ling Tiandu's figure appeared in this world, the world's master, Bi Fang, realized who it was. She was wearing a seven-colored robe, her body shimmering with golden light, surrounded by demonic energy, and her cold face showed confusion, as if she was wondering about Ling Tiandu's motives.

[Strange, the time for the final battle hasn't arrived yet, and we haven't heard the rallying cry. Why has the chosen one come knocking on our door this time?]

Unlike Bi Fang before she reversed time, the current Bi Fang prefers seclusion and doesn't like to concern herself with worldly affairs. Although she loves the Way of Heaven, she doesn't want to get too involved in the struggle between good and evil. Unless the chosen one of destiny sounds the call to arms for the final battle, or the villains come knocking on her door, she generally won't take action easily.

Despite the passage of many years, the personalities of the various mythical beasts have remained largely unchanged. For mythical beasts like Bifang, during the succession of the protagonist, the previous chosen one of destiny would tell the new chosen one about the personalities of the various mythical beasts, so that they would understand that the mythical beasts are not tools, and that in order to mobilize them, one must follow their nature.

Bi Fang is steady and prefers quiet. Her abilities are not suited for combat. She was mainly recruited for her role in protecting the emperor rather than for killing enemies. Therefore, she couldn't understand why Ling Tiandu would come looking for her.

Despite her doubts, she did not directly refuse Ling Tiandu's visit, but simply stayed in her residence and waited for things to develop.

Although Ling Tiandu was the chosen one of destiny, she could not enter as she pleased. As soon as she appeared in this world, two Daoist disciples blocked her way.

"who?"

The two young Taoist boys were dressed in immortal robes, their skin was fair and tender, like porcelain dolls. Ling Tiandu could tell at a glance that they were demon beasts in human form, but he didn't know what kind of demon beasts they were.

She dared not be negligent and said, "I am the leader of the new generation of protectors and the chosen one of this year's destiny. I wish to meet Lord Bifang."

The female Taoist remained silent, but the male Taoist raised his nose and said loudly, "Do you have something to say? Even if you are the chosen one, my master doesn't just see you whenever he wants."

A glint of malice flashed in Ling Tiandu's eyes as he thought to himself, "Divine beasts are just too much trouble."

She did consider luring Bi Fang out and using Wu He Flower to solve the problem, but after thinking it over, she gave up on the idea.

[The carrying capacity of Wuhe Township has reached its limit. Moreover, unlike the aloof Tiangou, Bifang has a good relationship with several divine beasts and has even performed a life-taking ritual with one of them. If anything happens to Bifang, that divine beast will immediately sense it.]

[Furthermore, my need for Bifang is also to solve the problem of the female villain. Since that's the case, there's no need to resort to extreme measures. Although Bifang prefers quiet and dislikes fighting, among the divine beasts, she is the most supportive of the Heavenly Way. I can use this as a starting point, reasoning with her and appealing to her emotions. To harm her is not the act of a wise person.]

It was with this thought in mind that Ling Tiandu disregarded the young Taoist's rudeness and still spoke sincerely:

"The battle between good and evil has reached a critical point. I have deduced that the newly emerged female villain is about to make a big move, which may threaten the Heavenly Dao. This is a matter of great importance. The Heavenly Dao has already intervened. Only your master can solve the crisis ahead."

The young Taoist priest was about to say something when he suddenly stopped.

He seemed to shut down for a moment, and after a long while, he finally spoke: "The master is downstairs, you may go."

Having received permission, Ling Tiandu breathed a sigh of relief and quickly went downstairs.
