Summer and autumn alternated, the four seasons rotated, and a year passed during the days of seclusion in the Dragon Palace while everyone was busy with construction.

Four little lives were born this year.

Lu Xunhuan lives in this Dragon Palace and feels like a king.

But as a king, he is the main labor force.

He usually wasted too much time, so he was unable to break through to the Qianyuan realm.

Now, his foundation building is only half completed.

After a year of hard work, thirty rooms were opened up in the Dragon Palace, basically one room for each person, with a few extra rooms for storing daily necessities.

The ground inside the cave is paved with stone slabs.

In addition to stone paving, the room also has a wooden bed and a comfortable quilt.

These were all brought back by Lu Xunhuan from a town three hundred miles away.

Dongyan is a place that produces a lot of night-shining pearls.

He also specially exchanged gold for hundreds of night-shining pearls, one in each room to replace the oil lamps, and the rest were placed throughout the cave.

Outside the cave, there are large open areas in the canyon that have been reclaimed and planted with vegetables, fruits and melons.

The land is fertile and vegetables and fruits grow particularly well.

Next to the fruit orchard, there is a huge chicken coop that houses hundreds of captured pheasants.

And after this year, except for Senior Sister Lan, Senior Sister Bai and Yaoxue who had already broken through the Tengyun Realm, and Bai Yuhuan who was the last to join the cultivation of immortals and was still in the third level of Qinxin Realm.

The rest of the people, one after another, all broke through to the ninth level of the Qin Heart Realm.

So, Lu Xunhuan arranged for Senior Sister Lan, Senior Sister Bai, and Yao Xue to guard the Dragon Palace.

He took the rest of the people, including Bai Yuhuan, who was only at the third level of Qin Xin realm, to the Nine-story Demon Tower in Dongyan to hunt for the inner alchemy of demon beasts.

The Nine-story Demon Tower will be open to all immortal cultivators, no matter which country they are from, as long as they sign a life and death agreement.

They won’t ask about the sect or the country they are from.

On this side, in order to avoid being hunted down, Lu Xunhuan and his sect secretly fled to the Wolong Mountains in Dongyan, and have since disappeared.

On the other hand, in the imperial capital of Kyoto last week, a lot happened this year.

After the eighteenth prince Xia Yu succeeded to the throne, he showed his fangs and became extremely cruel.

In the palace, brothers were killing each other, and he killed all the princes who he thought might have ideas about the throne.

Among the ministers, Wei Ying, who had assisted him with great merit, and his brother, the border general Wei Ruhu, were all killed one after another.

When he succeeded to the throne, Zhang Xiangguo, as his minion, naturally continued to serve as prime minister.

With the new king backing him up, Prime Minister Zhang is now arrogant and killing people without restraint.

His son Zhang Buzhi was a tyrant when he was serving as Sima in Zhongzhou City, and was assassinated by Yao Xue.

He took his anger out on Zhongzhou City, and the entire family of Cao Ruhai, the former Zhongzhou City prefect, was beheaded.

All officials below Cao Ruhai were dismissed.

People related to Cao Ruhai were also hunted down.

The proprietress Li Ziyan got the news in advance and fled to Qingtian Pass, seeking the refuge of the Sixteenth Princess, and thus escaped the disaster.

But the new king issued an imperial decree, requiring the Sixteenth Princess to hand over the military power of Qingtian Pass and return to Kyoto to get married.

After receiving the imperial edict, the Sixteenth Princess did not set off immediately.

A night later, when the imperial envoy went to look for the Sixteenth Princess again, he found that the princess had disappeared.

Princess Sixteen took Li Ziyan and left overnight, and no one knew which direction they went.

In Yingzhou City, the capital of Southern Liang, after the Crown Prince came to power, he handed over all the affairs of the court to the Eighth Prince.

He himself was too lazy to take part in government affairs, and what he was most interested in all day was choosing a concubine.

In just over a year, his harem expanded rapidly, with beauties quickly reaching thousands.

With so many beauties waiting in the harem, how could he care about state affairs?

The Eighth Prince is now truly as Lu Xunhuan said that day, with power over the court and the country.

The Eighth Prince followed the will of the previous king and continued to implement Lu Xunhuan's reform methods.

Therefore, in Southern Liang, although the king was absurd, the country grew steadily under the control of the Eighth Prince.

In the Wolong Mountains, after Lu Xunhuan brought everyone back from hunting the inner alchemy of the monster, he took out the golden hoop and helped everyone break through to the Tengyun Realm.

Bai Yuhuan kept the inner core of the demon beast she had hunted back. When she reached the ninth level of the Qin Heart Realm, Lu Xunhuan would help her.

After helping everyone break through, Lu Xunhuan spent some more time.

He carved the cultivation methods of Tengyun Realm and Huiyang Realm on the stone wall of the cave, allowing everyone to read by looking at the stone wall and practice in their spare time.

Then, he could finally leave things to others and concentrate on practicing.

But when he wanted to calm down, someone came to him.

He was sitting in his room, practicing for only half an hour when Yaoxue arrived.

After she entered his room, she closed the door.

Lu Xunhuan knew what she meant as soon as he saw her.

Yao Xue sat down opposite him: "Could it be that I'm too old and you don't like me?"

Lu Xunhuan smiled: "What are you talking about?"

Yao Xue took off her mask, revealing her stunningly beautiful face. "I'm thirty-two now, it's time for me to get married. I've given you countless hints before, but you ignored them. It's not that you look down on me, so why is it?"

Lu Xun Huan explained: "If you don't tell me clearly, how can I dare to..."

Yao Xue had already rushed over and knocked him to the ground: "You...just want to use force..."

……

After a long time, the storm subsided.

Yao Xueyi blushed: "You know, my last name is Long, and my name is Long Yaoxue."

"When you named this place Dragon Palace, I felt like I had found my home."

"I, Long Yaoxue, felt like I was born to be the mistress of the Dragon Palace. At that moment, I knew I had found my lifelong home."

She continued to murmur, "When we have a child, the boy will have your last name and the girl will have my last name, okay?"

Lu Xunhuan nodded: "Okay."

Then he sighed slightly.

"Actually, I'm quite conflicted. I'm afraid I'll let you down."

Long Yaoxue asked, "Why do you say that?"

Lu Xun Huan said, "I have found two pieces of divine bones and integrated them into my body. Will your Pavilion Master let me go?"

Long Yaoxue held his hand and said, "Then you should practice quickly and strive to surpass him, then you won't be afraid of him anymore."

Lu Xun Huan pondered for a moment, then continued, "His intention is very clear. He wants me to gather all the divine bones and then kill me."

Long Yaoxue nodded: "Yes, I know. So, you don't plan to look for it?"

Lu Xunhuan smiled and said, "Keep looking."

Long Yaoxue said: "If you find them all and gain the power of the divine dragon, you may surpass him."

Lu Xun Huan shook his head: "I don't think it will be that simple. Even if I find all of them, I may not be able to gain power immediately. Otherwise, he wouldn't let me go looking for them."

Long Yaoxue turned over: "Don't think about those things, think about me..."
