“All right, go ahead.”

Shen Ping knew that her eldest senior sister would not agree. Back then, the other party was with him purely for the sake of cultivation and wanted to revive the Ling Yin Temple. Therefore, after she broke through to the Perfected Lord realm, she resolutely left the Changling Mountain and returned to the Ling Yin Temple in Min Mountain.

Right now, the world is in a chaotic period of conflict. How could the other party be with him?

Indeed, several days later, Yin Shu returned, disappointed. “Eldest Sister is not willing.”

Ghost Concubine snorted. “If it weren’t for Darling, how could she have broken through to the Perfected Lord Realm?”

Shen Ping waved his hand casually. “Everyone has their own aspirations. There’s no need to force it. Besides, Eldest Senior Sister doesn’t like a quiet life to begin with. She has her own pursuits.”

Immortal Emei in Yin Shu’s body came out of her consciousness and said unhappily, “Ling Zhen, you’ve broken through to the Heavenly Immortal Realm, your merit is perfect, and your Dao Fruit is successful. However, my body is still a Perfected Lord. I’m quite a distance away from breaking through to the Earth Immortal Realm. You can’t just enjoy yourself.”

Shen Ping flicked his finger and pressed it back.

“Let’s go.”

This time, after leaving the Changling Daoist temple, they traveled directly to the northwest of Great Zhao. The main reason was that there were constant disputes in the southeast and the Central Plains, so it was difficult to find a secluded residence.

Just like that, the three of them traveled all the way and toured most of the river. Half a year later, they settled down in a town near a small county in

Ganzhou.

Huaishan Town was not big. There were only three streets in total. The five shops in the town were all on the street in the middle. These five shops were the blacksmith’s shop, the grocery store, the rice shop, and the cloth shop, the last was the butcher’s shop. Every morning, they could hear the clanging of iron and Butcher Zhang’s loud voice.

After Shen Ping and the other two settled down, they opened a rouge and powder Shop. It was mainly run by Xi Lengyan. Although she had specially covered up her appearance, her enchanting figure still attracted many people in town to patronize the business.

Some of the burly men even teased her, but in the end, they were subdued by Ghost Concubine. From then on, they took a detour whenever they saw a shop.

They lived like this for 10 years. The people of the town were gradually adapting to the unfamiliar shop in the town. And on this day, a bright cry came from the rouge powder shop. The midwife hugged the fat boy and smiled from ear to ear. “Shopkeeper Shen, it’s a boy. He’s strong. You’ll be blessed in the future.”

Listen to this celebratory speech, Shen Ping threw the midwife silver. The other party beamed with joy. The child was born from Yin Shu. Originally, immortal Emei was unwilling no matter what. After all, for Perfected Lords, giving birth to a bloodline was very consuming. It was equivalent to extracting the connate Qi in their bodies. It was basically impossible for them to break through to the Earth Immortal realm in the future.

However, Shen Ping used the power of the world to nurture it, causing

Immortal Emei to shut up.

“Let’s call him Shen Yifan.”

As the descendant of a Heavenly Immortal and a Perfected Lord, this little fellow’s talent was astonishing. His Dao bone had been round and had golden patterns since he was born. Moreover, it was a rare twin five elements and Yin Yang Dao bone. If he cultivated, his speed would far exceed other outstanding Daoists.

However, Shen Ping and Yin Shu did not want him to come into contact with Dao techniques so quickly. Therefore, Shen Ping used the power of the world to seal his Dao bone. When he was 30 years old, the seal would automatically disappear. So the first 30 years would be an ordinary 30 years.

Apart from that, he also gave it a nickname, Shen Erdan. Ghost Concubine almost choked with laughter. She scratched the child’s face. “Erdan, when you grow up, don’t be like your father.

“The boy will not learn from his father,” Yin Shu said with a smile.

After giving birth, Yin Shu had matured quite a bit. There was even a strand of purple energy revolving between her brows. This shocked Shen Ping. He counted with his fingers. He immediately felt an invisible power and luck enveloping him. It was brought by Shen Erdan and then extended to Yin Shu. But when he carefully deduced, he could not deduce where this luck came from. It had to be known that he was already a Heavenly Immortal now and was very clear about the direction of the world. Now, the chaotic world would end in at most 300 years. Furthermore, it was ended by the scholar he had encountered in Yunjiang Cliff Cave.

In the end, he could not calculate his child s future.

“Interesting. Is this the fate of this world?”

Shen Ping narrowed his eyes. Fate was illusory. As a cultivator, he had never believed it, but here, it was really a Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, even rarer than the Great Dao of Reincarnation. In the Abyss of Supreme Darkness, the immortal World, and so on, there was also the Dao of Fate, but no one had comprehended it because this Great Dao was too difficult to begin with.

“Let nature take its course.”

He did not continue to deduce. He had originally settled in Huaishan Town to enjoy life. Even if his child had shocking talent, it would only attract a little of his attention.

“Darling, I also want a child.” Ghost Concubine was envious. Unfortunately, she had a Yin body. Although her cultivation was extremely high and she had reached the level of a Ghost King, she was unable to nurture life. This was restricted by the rules.

Shen Ping shook his head. “Using the power of the world can indeed reconstruct your body, cleanse your meridians, and give you Yang. However, this will damage your cultivation. It’s almost less than ten percent. It’ll be very difficult to cultivate again in the future, even with the power of the world.” But Ghost Concubine said firmly, “I’m not afraid. Even if I have to start over, I’m willing to give birth to your child.”

When she was alive, she was from a rich family with a scholarly background. She was influenced by tradition that having children is more important than anything else.

Seeing how determined she was, Shen Ping could only agree. In any case, he had the power of the grotto-heaven world. At most, the other party would spend more time re-cultivating.

Clang! Clang!

Suddenly, a gong sounded outside the shop. A county bailiff shouted, “Listen up, Jin Country is going to war with the Jing Country next year. Every family has to pay 30% tax.”

After the tax collector left, the people in the town were in an uproar. They had to increase taxes again. Over the years, the Jin Country had been extorting money. The people’s taxes were heavy, but they could still barely survive. Now that they had increased taxes again, commoners might have to escape into the mountains.

Yin Shu, who had lived here for ten years, seemed to have integrated into this place. She gritted her teeth and said hatefully, “These ruthless tax collectors really deserve to be killed. I’ll destroy them tonight.”

Shen Ping was speechless. “Senior Sister, we’re ordinary people now. We should act like ordinary people. How can we use magic power at will? Otherwise, what’s the point of us settling here?

Ghost Concubine didn’t care about this at all. She smiled and said, “Darling is right. Yin Shu, it’s not these tax collectors that are despicable, but the imperial court It’s normal for this to happen since the world is in conflict and chaotic times. Unless there’s a true dragon to unify the world, then the people can live a rich and healthy life again.”

Yin Shu sighed and said faintly, “The world has been in chaos for so many years. I wonder when it will be unified.”

Shen Ping said calmly, “The people of the world have set their minds. This day will come.”

In fact, in addition to taxes, there were still demons and ghosts in the town all these years. However, they had all been resolved by Shen Ping and the others. There was a difference if they did not use their magic power.

The days passed. In the blink of an eye, another two years had passed. Ghost Concubine, who had reconstructed her body, finally gave birth to Shen Ping’s bloodline. It was a daughter, which made her beam with joy. She hked her daughter the most, so she named her Shen Xiuyun, hoping that she could be as educated and reasonable as she was when she was alive.

Unlike Shen Erdan, Shen Xiuyun did not have a Dao bone and was an ordinary person. Shen Ping and Ghost Concubine did not take it to heart, though.

Late at night, sitting on the corner of the roof, he raised his head and looked at the bright moon hanging high in the sky. In front of him was another scene. He saw that the sky was like a curtain with many colorful threads. Every thread represented a fate and at the same time, there was life.

Although he saw it, it was very difficult to capture the traces of fate from so many threads.

Of course, Shen Ping was only trying. Even if he didn’t grasp the comprehension, it wouldn’t affect him. With the five elements, Yin Yang, and Reincarnation, the three Great Dao of Heaven and Earth completely fused into the Chaos Hole Space, he believed that the prototype of the small world he condensed would definitely be extremely powerful.

Listening to the steady breathing of his wife and children in the house, He smiled. What was the point of thinking so much? He just had to enjoy this ordinary life..
