As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life

Chapter 1280: Chapter 357: Immortal Artisan’s Fourth Shedding—Divine Power Advances to Daoist Ghost Axe, Dao Yun’s Heavenly Secrets Reveal the Killer Bull Demon [Monthly Ticket Request]

There is a Qiankun within the Treasure Tower; the internal space is far larger than what the naked eye sees outside.

The Divine Sculpture, Divine Weapon, Divine Talisman, and Divine Pill are the four great professions, each designated a floor for the masters to study.

Fang Shangzhen, with Li Che, the newly promoted Special Class Guest Minister, went to meet several other Special Class Guest Ministers who were not too busy.

Fang Shangzhen was particularly considerate towards Li Che due to Fang Hanshu’s influence, and she genuinely admired him.

A twenty-five-year-old Divine Sculpture at the peak Semi-Saint level, rising from obscurity, truly seemed like a legend.

She, Fang Shangzhen, most appreciated such geniuses who ascend against the tide.

Originally, Fang Shangzhen planned to host a banquet to celebrate Li Che successfully passing the Special Class Guest Minister examination.

However, Li Che, eager to study the newly shed Four-Transformation Immortal Craft Dao Fruit, politely declined Fang Shangzhen’s offer.

Fang Shangzhen wasn’t bothered, as at her level, she was beyond being affected by favor or humiliation.

She arranged a Treasure Carriage exclusively for Special Class Guest Ministers for Li Che.

Li Che rode the carriage, departing from the Qintian Observatory Treasure Building.

The carriage smashed the chilly Spring Rain.

All the way unimpeded, returning to the Fourth City!

...

...

The slight warmth of early spring melted the remaining snow within the lead clouds of the firmament.

Transforming into cold water droplets, with the chill that awakens all things from a winter slumber, sweeping across the Divine Capital.

Rainwater pattered down, pooling on the ground.

When Li Che returned to the Qianyuan Institute.

The news that Li Che, the Divine Eagle Ridge Elder from the Qian Yuan Divine Sect, successfully passed the Qintian Observatory’s Special Class Guest Minister examination, becoming the thirteenth Special Class Guest Minister at the Qintian Observatory headquarters, swiftly spread like a storm through the Upper Three Cities of the Divine Capital.

”Daddy!”

Xi Xi, who was cultivating in the courtyard, saw Li Che returning in ink-black garments and immediately leapt joyfully.

She dashed swiftly towards Li Che, making a leap, crashing towards him like a cannonball.

However, with Li Che’s current strength, he lightly pinched, catching the back of the little girl’s neck, lifting her up.

Xi Xi suddenly realized the large gap between her and her daddy.

Now Xi Xi had broken through to Great Grandmaster, her Qi-Blood hard to suppress, constantly boiling, hot and blazing, evaporating all the falling spring water.

Within the small courtyard, divine children from Qian Yuan Divine Sect and Dao City were all individually releasing their Qi-Blood, training unyieldingly under Xi Xi’s suppression.

”Husband!”

And under the eaves, Zhang Ya, seated beside Nurse Momo munching on melon seeds, immediately became delighted.

She shouted excitedly, jumped off the railing, stretched her long legs, and sprinted towards Li Che.

The mother and daughter... almost identical behavior.

However, Zhang Ya was more restrained compared to Xi Xi and didn’t use her head to bump into Li Che.

Zhang Ya came close to Li Che, grabbed his arm tightly with her big hand.

”Husband, did you succeed?!”

Zhang Ya’s eyes shone brightly.

She knew Li Che went to participate in the Qintian Observatory’s Special Class Guest Minister examination today!

It’s said that this examination is very challenging.

Throughout the Great Vista, there are only about a dozen Special Class Guest Ministers at the Qintian Observatory!

Li Che, holding Xi Xi with one hand, let Zhang Ya hold onto his arm, a gentle smile appeared on his face.

”When I take action, naturally, everything is accomplished!”

Li Che laughed.

Under the eaves.

Lv Taibai, with white clothes bulging with air currents, silver hair fluttering, watched as Li Che was encircled by his wife and daughter upon returning, eyes showing a hint of envy.

He and Xuan Qisha have not given birth to offspring to this day, not due to Lv Taibai himself, but because of issues with Xuan Qisha’s health.

After Li Che briefly spoke with his wife and daughter, he headed towards the house, intending to enter seclusion for cultivation, mentioning that he gained something from the Special Class Guest Minister examination.

”Go on, go on, Daddy, can you put me down first!”

Xi Xi, held by Li Che, pouted and said.

Li Che laughed heartily, gave a gentle toss, and Xi Xi was thrown into the air. Xi Xi let out a sound, as fire stars splashed under her feet, two Prison Lotus Wind Fire Golden Light Wheels immediately spun and rose.

Li Che looked at Xi Xi, eyes soft.

But thinking of the Prison Lotus Fire within Xi Xi, like a ticking time bomb, his heart sank slightly.

Suddenly, he frowned lightly; he had forgotten to inquire with the Great Supervising Minister today at the Qintian Observatory Treasure Tower about methods to restrain this Prison Lotus Fire.

If he hadn’t met the Great Supervising Minister before, Li Che couldn’t be certain, but upon meeting him and carving a Divine Sculpture for him.

Li Che could ascertain the Great Supervising Minister’s strength...

Must have already reached the Divine Tribulation Realm!

Even a mere will descending exerted immense pressure on Li Che; the Divine Tribulation Realm capable of becoming a true immortal of the human world, its strength indeed far surpasses what one would imagine.

”If truly necessary, I shall use the Heavenly Order once to request the Great Supervising Minister for a chance to deduce... and calculate how to resolve Xi Xi’s Prison Lotus Fire.”

Li Che’s gaze sharpened.

Exhaling a breath, he paused as he passed by Nurse Momo.

”Where is Senior Qing Shan?” Li Che queried, puzzled.

However, he didn’t pay it much mind and headed indoors.

...

...

Divine Capital Fourth City.

Little Spirit Sound Institute.

The yard, where corpses lay scattered, had long since regained its clarity after the bloodshed dispersed.

Huang Mei flicked his finger, releasing a flame, burning the remains, and while seated in the lavish Buddha’s carriage, he offered prayers to the deceased disciples.

Ji Moli and his four sons, clad in armor, sat resolutely beneath the eaves, quietly observing Huang Mei perform rites for the dead of Little Lingyin Temple.

No matter how well Huang Mei concealed it, Ji Moli still clearly saw the grief on Huang Mei’s face.

He was very pleased with this grief, which indicated Huang Mei’s cooperation was indeed sincere.
