Chapter 491 Flowers Bloom in the Garden, Trouble Stirs Up Again
The person floated lightly down to the ground from the Divine Boat in the Cave Abyss. Holding the token given to him by Jiang Shoucheng, Su Che carefully put it away.

Although it was already deep winter in Cizhou, with a desolate and bleak scene everywhere, it was still a blessed land where ancient powerful beings rose from the sea, and lush greenery could still be seen everywhere.

Su Che did not fly away, but instead walked slowly along the road.

There were still few pedestrians on the official road. The damage caused by the war had not been eliminated. It was unknown how many years it would take to restore everything to its former peace.

They hadn't walked far when Cizhou City came into view.

Cizhou City was much more peaceful than Su Che had expected. Banners covered the sky above the city walls, and soldiers in full armor could be seen moving about everywhere. A fierce military aura pierced the sky, and even the celestial phenomena changed for a moment.

Heavy armored soldiers stood guard at all four city gates. The Su family's porridge kitchen had vanished without a trace, and even the imperial guards who were supposed to be stationed at the four gates were nowhere to be seen.

From a distance, the entire city of Cizhou looks like a military camp, rather than its original appearance.

It seems that the reinforcements from the Liang Dynasty have finally arrived, and the battle situation in Cizhou is about to change again.

It's bound to be lively for a few more days with Liu Yidao's clone.

Su Che walked quietly past the city gate. This time, he only used his supernatural powers to play a little illusion trick and fooled all the soldiers guarding the city gate. These soldiers guarding the city gate were considered to have some cultivation, but compared to the current Young Master Su, they were no different.

He easily passed through the city gate, and without going to the Censorate or the Imperial Guard, Su Che went straight to his own residence.

The Su residence remained tightly shut, with a sign reading "No Guests Allowed" hanging beside the vermilion gate. There were no servants in sight. Su Che quietly stepped over the wall and slowly walked through the courtyard of the Su residence.

Judging from the aura, the little fox should still be there. There are no other auras besides the little fox, so it seems that Xue Baizhi has already left.

Su Che followed the little fox's scent and walked slowly toward the garden. Before long, he saw the little fox dressed in a palace dress sitting alone in the garden pavilion. Next to her sat the Yin-Yang Dharma King, who was holding a pork knuckle and gnawing on it, seemingly chatting.

Su Che remained calm and listened to the two talking from a short distance away.

"I told you not to worry, worrying won't help."

Yin Yang Dharma King swallowed a mouthful of pork knuckle, licked his lips as he swallowed the slick fat, and said, "Young Su is going back to his own sect to cultivate, not being captured by any demons or monsters. This is a good thing."

"You make it sound so easy, anyway, it's not your husband."

The little fox said irritably, "Didn't you claim to be temporarily in charge of the sect's affairs on behalf of that person? Why don't we take this opportunity to hold a meeting and remove him from Huang Tiandao's sect..."

"My dear little aunt, what kind of place do you think the Huangtiandao Sect is? To move it out of here, do you really think the Huangtiandao leader is a fake? If I had that ability, I would be in charge of all matters, big and small, in Xuandu Palace by now, understand?"

"Sigh, so you really just watch?"

"What else can we do? We can't even break through the Ninth Heavenly Gang now. Don't look at me, I could in the past, but I can't now. Secondly, we can't enter the Yellow Heaven Path sect. Thirdly, even if you did, what could you do? If you ask me, you'd better settle down and cultivate properly. You are a Cloud Fox from the Cloud Recesses, and you are naturally close to the Dao. You can take advantage of Su's absence to cultivate properly."

"Besides, this is also a good thing for Su boy, so he can cultivate properly up there."

"If I were cultivating, why would I be here? I'm just afraid he'll be seduced by some vixen. Who knows if there are a few gentle and tender senior sisters or a few alluring junior sisters in Huangtiandao, a whole bunch of beauties surrounding him. If they become Daoist partners, wouldn't I be at a huge loss? Ugh, so annoying, so annoying. There's nothing to say to you, you just know how to stir up trouble, you have no skills or ideas at all."

"You're amazing, my dear aunt. If there's nothing else, just ask the accountant to give me some more money. It's time to settle the accounts over there."

The Yin-Yang Dharma King stretched comfortably, then suddenly frowned. "Hey fox, do you sense anything's different?"

"How is it different?"

The little fox grumbled at the Yin-Yang Dharma King: "You old devil, you just need to be taught a lesson..."

The Yin-Yang Dharma King gestured towards the pond.

The little fox looked in that direction. It was the dead of winter, and although the pond wasn't frozen, it was desolate everywhere. But suddenly, a red lotus bloomed on the water's surface. Its golden stamens exuded fragrance, and its deep red petals were pleasing to the eye, as if midsummer had returned and revisited this small pond.

"Tsk, this is really unbelievable."

The little fox turned to look at the garden. It didn't know when, but all the flowers planted in the garden had suddenly bloomed. The pale peach blossoms, the snow-white pear blossoms, the apricot blossoms and jujube blossoms were mixed together, the peonies were heavy, the peonies were fragrant, the crabapples were cold and beautiful, and the golden chrysanthemums were in full bloom.

It seems that the four seasons have come together in this small garden in an instant, with traces of flowers visible everywhere.

"Hehe, still a deadbeat."

If the Yin-Yang Dharma King couldn't figure out what was going on at this point, he wouldn't be the Yin-Yang Dharma King.

Not far away, Su Che was lying on the branch of a ginkgo tree, half-lying down and looking at the people below.

"So you're all nagging me like this just because I'm not here?"

The little fox was overjoyed when it saw Su Che's figure.

"you are back?"

"It's faster than I expected."

The Yin-Yang Dharma King nodded slightly and said, "Is this the Taiyi Donghua Jade Book?"

"It's just a clever use of the Yang energy, nothing special. Kongzhu, do you like the flowers in this garden? From now on, I'll make sure that the place where you live is always filled with flowers blooming in all four seasons."

Su Che's words immediately brought tears to the little fox's eyes. This rascal was still a kind soul after all; all the effort she had put in hadn't been in vain.

"Tsk tsk, you, the Azure Emperor, do know how to be considerate of your own people."

As usual, the Yin-Yang Dharma King made a couple of sarcastic remarks before asking, "Are you here on business, or are you not leaving?"

"We probably won't be able to leave in the short term. By the decree of the Yellow Heaven, we will be the Yellow Heaven's Path's wandering guides from now on."

Su Che stretched comfortably: "Of course, he is also the reincarnation of the Azure Emperor, which is about to be confirmed. But what's going on in this city? Why can't I see Lu Bai and Zhu Yi? And where did Xuan Gui go?"

"After you left, there was quite a commotion."

The Yin-Yang Dharma King smiled slightly and recounted everything that happened after Su Che left.
