Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 1690: Chapter 1690: Meng Po

Meng Po curled her lips, ”What’s the best? I think your mother should find the best man.”

”I think my dad’s already good enough.”

”Hmph, you’ve got no insight.”

”Haha, as if you have any insight.”

The two quarreled while watching their days go by.

After a while, Qi Wen stood up, ”I’m leaving. You should cultivate well so we can venture into the Divine Realm together.”

”You make it sound so easy. Your mom hasn’t even been to the Divine Realm.”

”That’s because my mom doesn’t want to go,” Qi Wen absolutely believed that his mom had the ability.

”True enough. Alright, I’ll work hard. It’s more fun with you around. Come find me when you’re tired of cultivating.”

”Why don’t you come find me instead?”

”Do you think I can go out?”

”Hehe, why are you so honest? Look at that guy up there, he’s so free, he could totally cover for you for a few days.”

Meng Po curled her lips. ”Dream on, it’s faster.”

”Alright, I’m off.”

Qi Wen was not worried about his sister and nephew at all. With the way his sister was, if they suffered a loss, the other person probably wouldn’t have a good outcome either.

Upon returning to the Xuantian Sect, he unexpectedly found his master had come out of seclusion.

”You seemed to be having a good time down in the underworld?”

”Yeah, it’s alright. Master, did your cultivation advance again?”

”Yes, I came out to take a look. How are your parents?”

”They’re okay, just idling down there waiting for us.”

”As long as you know, they’re just waiting on you.”

Qi Hong appeared. ”I need to return to the sect for a bit. My master is a Mahayana.” He said and vanished instantly.

”Master, are all the high-level cultivators in seclusion now?”

”Yes, they are. With hope on the horizon, no one is willing to miss the chance.”

”I’m off too. I’m feeling a lot of pressure.”

Qi Hong appeared on the Tribulation Mountain of the Medicine Sect, where many people were watching.

When he arrived, the first bolt of Heavenly Tribulation struck down.

It felt similar to Zhu Huai’en’s tribulation. That gave him some relief. His worry was that his master might not withstand as well as Zhu Huai’en.

The Sect Master and other Divinity Transformation cultivators of the Medicine Sect came to pay their respects. Qi Hong was now in the later stage of Divinity Transformation, already surpassing previous Divinity Transformation cultivators in power.

Qi Hong returned the greetings simply, watching his master’s tribulation with concern.

After parting with his master last time, he had given him a Thunder Stone. Zhu Huai’en used one last time, and it seemed his master should use one now too.

With a Thunder Stone in hand, it should be much better. Dan Yang was the first Mahayana in the Medicine Sect, and all the cultivators were hoping their old ancestor could successfully advance.

The tribulation continued, and Qi Hong grew more anxious. After Zhu Huai’en reached Mahayana, he went into seclusion for quite some time and had not yet emerged. Qi Hong didn’t see how the tribulation affected him either.

He hoped his master wouldn’t get harmed by the tribulation and wished for his smooth success.

Wei Lingxi had already reached the Nascent Soul stage and was also qualified to watch from the mountaintop.

Seeing the spiritual power fluctuations around his old ancestor, he wondered if he might also reach Mahayana?

What would it be like if a whole family were all Mahayana cultivators?

Everyone had thoughts, Dan Yang’s tribulation was a Seven-Nine Thunder Tribulation. Ascending would likely be an Eight-Nine. That wouldn’t be bad either.

Qi Hong, lost in thought, was also trying to divert his attention.

Feeling that his master was accepting the tribulation a bit easier, he thought he had probably used a Thunder Stone. A wise move.

When the last bolt of tribulation struck, he sensed that his master wasn’t in great danger, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Thank heavens, his master had successfully reached Mahayana.

All the Medicine Sect cultivators broke into smiles. The old ancestor succeeded, and now the Medicine Sect had its own Mahayana cultivator.

The Heart Demon Tribulation took a longer time. Dan Yang saw many things, from the events he experienced since his youth.

He sighed deeply, now that he was Mahayana, there was only one step left to Ascension.

The Heavenly Dao’s gift gave him a feeling of comfort that words couldn’t describe. It was more intoxicating than cultivation itself.

The disciples below cheered, as the Medicine Sect now had a Mahayana cultivator.

Dan Yang smiled as he greeted everyone. Seeing his disciple, he gave a knowing smile.

”I will go into seclusion. Rest assured, I will visit Mu Tian Celestial when I come out.”

”Yes, Master, but I still want to go to the Xuantian Sect.”

Without their parents, it would be better for him and his sister to stay together.

Dan Yang nodded and watched his disciple leave.

His elder brother wasn’t there, Wei Jian Daojun was also at Mahayana, likely without any problems.

Qi Hong had a feeling that reaching Mahayana seemed much simpler.

It seemed many cultivators from the Starry Realm could ascend.

Qi Wen had already gone into seclusion, and Qi Hao and the others hadn’t come out either, so it was better to remain in seclusion.

Su Yuanyuan in the Mortal World, was now twenty years old.

After entering the palace for a few years, she had fully adapted to this life of waiting for death while eating, and she even found it okay.

Seventeen-year-old Su Xing already had a strong presence of someone in power, it seemed the Emperor’s nurturing of him was quite successful.

”Sis, we now have peace and prosperity.”

”That’s obviously a good thing. The people don’t care who’s the Emperor, as long as they can live a stable and prosperous life.”

Su Xing nodded, understanding his sister’s meaning. He could feel it now too.

”Sis, the Emperor’s plan is for me to ascend the throne when I’m twenty.”

”That’s great, once you take the throne, I can live outside. By the way, have they confirmed your Crown Princess Consort yet?”

”The Emperor has his eyes set on the Minister of Revenue’s daughter. I’ve seen her once. She’s okay.”

Su Xing really had no objections. Anyone would do. He could fully appreciate now that the Emperor definitely wouldn’t harm him. Listening was the best option.

”She’s the person you’ll spend the rest of your life with, it’s important that you’re satisfied.”

”I don’t really have any satisfaction or dissatisfaction.”

”What about the concubines?”

”The Emperor said I could decide for myself in the future. I’m not really interested. Too many women are a hassle.”

Su Yuanyuan smiled and nodded. Su Xing was a typical ancient person. She never tried to impart any particular ideas onto him.

It was always better to let her decide things herself.

After Su Xing left, Su Yuanyuan felt particularly happy. There couldn’t be two Emperors and two Empresses in the palace. When the time came, she could definitely leave the palace.

Wonderful, living outside would have fewer constraints.

She never imagined being together with the Emperor. In these years, she’d only seen the Emperor a few times. When she left the palace, who would want to stay with him? Live her own life, how nice.

Cui Shanggong, having been by the Empress’s side for years, more or less knew her situation. She should be extremely happy now.

She had never seen an Empress like this. It was clear she didn’t want any contact with the Emperor.

A young girl spending her life like this was also a pity, different from them—the servants.

A month later, the Emperor and Su Xing came together.

”I’ve decided on the Minister of Revenue’s daughter for the Crown Princess Consort. You can meet her.”

This time, Su Yuanyuan didn’t refuse. Her brother’s other half, she had to meet somehow.
