After becoming a Taoist partner with my senior sister, my master changed

years later.

Lin Chuan was still busy arranging the formation, not pausing for a moment. The higher-ups, in accordance with the results of the previous meeting, were methodically advancing the layout of the holy land.

Today, the entire holy land is divided into five major regions: east, west, north and center.

The East District is under the jurisdiction of the human race's top leaders; the South District borders the Demon Race and is under the jurisdiction of the Demon Race's top leaders; the West District borders the Monster Race and is under the jurisdiction of the Monster Race's top leaders; the North District is jointly governed by the top leaders of the three races, and is the place where the inner disciples of each race study together; the Central District is presided over by Lin Chuan, who does not recruit disciples and is only responsible for managing the top leaders of the four districts of East, West, South and North and issuing orders.

As to why different ethnic groups, even though they have merged into a unified force, still need to be governed separately, there are two core reasons: First, the idea that "those who are not of my race must have different hearts" is deeply rooted in the minds of the people, and the barriers between them are difficult to eliminate overnight.

Secondly, each race has lived in their original area for a long time, and it is very easy for them to suffer from acclimatization when leaving their familiar environment. The demons and humans are the most typical examples.

Beyond that, there are many other factors, both large and small.

However, Lin Chuan was not too anxious about this. After all, his power had been established and the fortunes of the various tribes had been initially integrated.

"How long will it take for this formation to be set up, my husband?"

Next to Lin Chuan, Bai Zhi sat on the ground, holding her chin with one hand, her eyes fixed on the way he set up the formation, and asked softly.

"If it's quick, maybe... around five years."

Lin Chuan's tone was a little uncertain, and as he spoke, he did not stop setting up the array pattern with his hands.

After all, the holy land is extremely large, and he uses the entire holy land as the center of the formation, so it will naturally take a long time.

"After my husband finishes setting up the formation in the holy land, does he have to go outside immediately to set up the remaining four large formations?" Bai Zhi looked at Lin Chuan and asked softly.

"I will definitely stay with you for a few days before leaving." Lin Chuan chuckled.

"My husband must take advantage of these few years to take good care of himself, otherwise he might not be able to leave the holy land." Bai Zhi said softly with her eyebrows curved.

"Madam, are you playing with fire?" Lin Chuan stopped setting up the array pattern and turned to look at Bai Zhi with a smile.

“How dare I…”

Bai Zhi bit her thin lips lightly, with a hint of timidity in her eyes, and looked at Lin Chuan pitifully.

"..."

Lin Chuan silently withdrew his gaze, took a deep breath to calm his emotions, and casually changed the subject, asking, "Has anything happened in the outside world recently?"

"Recently, everyone outside is talking about the day when the Holy Land recruited disciples, and how my husband suppressed many veterans in the Tribulation Realm with a single sword strike..."

Bai Zhi's gentle expression instantly faded, and her tone became more serious. "I also screened some suspected information about Xu Hanyi's whereabouts."

Before Lin Chuan could speak, Bai Zhi continued, "Longquan Mountain was suddenly covered by a barrier half a month ago. The leader of a second-rate sect in the early Nascent Soul stage went to investigate and had his arm cut off by a sword."

"Three sword marks suddenly appeared on the summit of Luofeng Mountain overnight. It is said that many sword cultivators broke through the realm right after seeing them."

"The evil cultivators who had been hiding in the shadows have suddenly united recently, claiming they want to deal with a ruthless sword immortal."

"..."

Lin Chuanzhi sighed softly, suppressed the turmoil in his heart, and asked, "Apart from the outside world, is there anything going on in the Holy Land?

"What do you mean, husband?"

Seeing that Lin Chuan's tone was unclear, Bai Zhi asked with some doubt in her eyes.

"Are those old guys from various forces who are still alive behaving themselves?" Lin Chuan asked softly.

"Don't worry, they are very afraid of the magical weapon Huangquan in Qingshu's hand. After a brief talk, they all said that they just want to enjoy their retirement and don't want to deal with these trivial matters." Bai Zhi shook her head.

"That's good."

Lin Chuan nodded and devoted himself to the arrangement of the formation again.

Bai Zhi looked at him quietly, her eyes fixed on the side of his face as he concentrated on setting up the array pattern.

After a long silence, she finally couldn't suppress her doubts and asked softly, "My husband, are you going to ignore Xu Hanyi?"

"Since Master has chosen to go out and relax, how can I, as his disciple, dare to interfere?"

Lin Chuan joked, but there was a subtle worry in his eyes.

"What if she just doesn't want to see her husband anymore?"

Bai Zhi frowned slightly, her tone tinged with worry. "If she could accept us, given her personality, she would have returned long ago. My husband, why don't you first use the power of the Holy Land to find her whereabouts, and then forcibly bring her back."

"Madam, aren't you afraid that Master will catch you and drive you away from me?" Lin Chuan chuckled.

"My husband will definitely protect me."

Bai Zhi looked up at Lin Chuan, her eyes filled with determination. After a pause, she added softly, "Also... your future is uncertain, and I don't want him to have any regrets."

"Master will come back before leaving."

Lin Chuan looked at the faint light flowing in the array pattern with a firm tone.

"Right……"

Bai Zhi leaned forward, a sly look of anticipation in her eyes, "Does my husband have any other regrets?"

"for example?"

Lin Chuan raised his eyebrows slightly, looking puzzled.

"Husband, don't you want a child?" Bai Zhi said, her cheeks flushed light pink.

"If my wife continues to confuse me, I'm afraid I'll never be able to set up this formation properly." Lin Chuan shook his head helplessly.

"Wouldn't it be nice to always be with me?"

Bai Zhi wrapped her arms around his waist, resting her cheek against his back. Her voice was soft and stubborn, "What's the big catastrophe? I'll live as long as I can. I'm not greedy."

"But I'm greedy." Lin Chuan sighed softly.

“I’m quite greedy…”

Bai Zhi said in a deep voice, sighing with a hint of resentment: "I regret more and more that I didn't take you back directly."

"Why don't you regret saving me?" Lin Chuan chuckled.

"Who said I have no regrets? I do regret it. I will return your pure immortal body to you." Bai Zhi tightened her arms around Lin Chuan.

"Then according to the records in ancient books, how many more times are left?" Lin Chuan raised his eyebrows.

"Forever and ever!" Bai Zhitan opened her mouth slightly and bit Lin Chuan's shoulder.

……

The morning dew condensed into frost and then melted again. The grass and trees in front of the steps withered seven times. With the girls taking turns to accompany him every day, seven years passed by like sand through fingers.

The Holy Land of Common People has developed rapidly in the past seven years. Although there are still occasional minor frictions between the various races, most of them are small disputes over strength and weakness, which can be resolved in a blink of an eye. The whole country has long been moving steadily towards the direction of integration and symbiosis.

For some reason, it took longer than expected to set up the array center, so Lin Chuan planned to go out and completely set up the Wanling Locking Array, and then come back to spend some time with the girls.

Although the women could not hide their reluctance on their faces and had some reluctance in their eyes, they still chose to listen to Lin Chuan, or chose to practice in seclusion, or choose to help Lin Chuan deal with the affairs of the holy land.

Just like that, on the second day after setting up the center of the formation, Lin Chuan left the Holy Land of Cangsheng.

outside world.

Lin Chuan headed west, his eyes occasionally sweeping across the towns along the way.

In the streets and alleys, human vendors were bargaining with demon stall owners, and people of different ethnic groups were sitting around chatting in the taverns on the corners.

Although he had heard about the integration of various races in the Holy Land a long time ago, he couldn't help but feel emotional when he saw this scene full of fireworks with his own eyes.

"Once I have completed the arrangement of the Myriad Souls Locking Luck Formation, the luck of each race should be completely condensed into one..."
