The government was sending out wives, and I ended up with a princess from the previous dynasty!

“Oh, just now an old immortal said he was destined to give me this medicine. He said it’s called Blood Bodhi. Have you heard of it?” Jia Daoshi took out a jade bottle and handed it to Di Qinglin.

"Blood...Blood Bodhi?"

Di Qinglin was taken aback at first, then his face showed shock: "This is not a pill. It is a special plant that grows in Lingyun Cave. It is said to be a holy medicine for healing, and it also has unique energy. After eating it, one's power can be greatly increased. It is a treasure that countless martial arts practitioners dream of."

"However, mysterious monsters roam the Lingyun Cave, and obtaining the Blood Bodhi would be a perilous journey..."

"This old immortal is too kind to you, isn't he? Is it really a Blood Bodhi?"

As Di Qinglin spoke, he opened the jade bottle.

A faint red glow could be seen flickering inside the bottle!

Yi Qianxiao also joined in: "It really is!"

"Even a single Blood Bodhi would drive martial arts masters mad, but there are so many here... unbelievable!"

Di Qinglin murmured, "With so many Blood Bodhi seeds, even if a dog ate them, it would become a martial arts master..."

"That's amazing?" Jia Daoshi was dumbfounded.

Is that little girl named Tong Huang being so polite?

"In that case, let's not delay, let's go home and try it now!"

With such a treasure around, the New Year's Eve lantern festival didn't seem so appealing anymore, and the group hurried home.

Anyway, there will be another lantern festival after the Lunar New Year, during the Lantern Festival.

……

Inside the manor.

"You should take these and eat them quickly. After eating them, your power will increase greatly, and you will be able to share my burdens."

Jia Daoshi poured out the Blood Bodhi beads and found there were ten in total, three for each person, and he kept one for himself.

"My lord, you should take one of these rare and precious herbs first. After all, it's a holy medicine for healing, and you'll always need it someday." Yi Qianxiao picked up one and put the remaining two back.

“Qianxiao makes a good point.” Di Qinglin nodded in agreement.

"I don't know any martial arts, so eating it wouldn't do me any good. I'd rather not eat it." Murong Jiu was completely uninterested.

Upon hearing this, Jia Daoshi laughed and said, "Alright, then you can make your own arrangements. But you need this stuff more than I do. I'll just eat one to taste it; eating more won't do any good."

He remembered that Nie Feng had also eaten the Blood Bodhi before, and only one of them. He figured that although this kind of thing was precious, only the first one would have an effect, otherwise it would be too heaven-defying.

Besides, his physique is already extremely strong after cultivating the Dragon Elephant Divine Art, so it doesn't matter whether he eats it or not. He should give these things to Di Qinglin and Yi Qianxiao, who need them more.

"Eating too much won't help?"

Yi Qianxiao was taken aback: "Young master, what kind of kung fu do you practice? I don't remember that the Jinshi Sect doesn't have any kung fu techniques with strong combat power?"

Previously, Zhao He, one of the ten elders of the Sun Moon Sect, came to cause trouble, but was easily defeated by Jia Daoshi. This, along with his previous performance, surprised Yi Qianxiao.

"Dragon Elephant Divine Skill," Di Qinglin said.

"It's actually the Dragon Elephant Divine Skill? I understand..." Yi Qianxiao was initially surprised, then a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.

The Dragon Elephant Divine Skill is the unparalleled martial art of the Great Qing Dynasty. After the Great Jing and Long Wu destroyed the Qing Kingdom, they immediately went to the palace to search for this martial art, but unfortunately, they heard that they could not find it.

It now appears that they were brought out by Murong Jiu and the others.

"Ah Jiu, are you really not going to eat?" Jia Daoshi asked.

“I don’t know how to practice martial arts, and I’m not interested in it either,” Murong Jiu said.

"Even without practicing martial arts, you can still improve your physique, right? If your body can't keep up, you might not be able to handle it when you consummate your marriage with me," Jia Daoshi said with a smile.

"My lord, you...you're so bad!" Murong Jiu's face flushed red instantly.

She naturally understood what Jia Daoshi meant.

These past two days, Sister Qinglin and Sister Qianxiao haven't been able to get up in the mornings. Yinxin said it's because they overworked themselves at night and their backs are so sore they can't even straighten up...

"Women love bad boys, you know. Don't believe me? Just ask your sister Qinglin and sister Qianxiao," Jia Daoshi continued.

"My lord, you still dare to speak!"

Jia Daoshi is now very thick-skinned; he speaks without blushing or panting.

Even Di Qinglin and Yi Qianxiao blushed at this.

"Ha ha……"

……

Jia Daoshi's first New Year in the Great Jing Dynasty passed in a joyous atmosphere.

It feels good.

But on the same Lunar New Year's Eve, Jia Daoshi was enjoying a happy and fulfilling life.

The Sun Moon Cult is in complete chaos!

First, Zhao He, one of the ten elders, and his elite subordinates went missing.

Next, all the branch halls suffered a bloodbath at the hands of the mysterious master!

In the end, even the main headquarters suffered!

This time, the Sun Moon Cult suffered heavy casualties!

These attackers were well-trained and highly skilled, wielding identical longswords in a sword formation that inflicted heavy losses on the disciples of the Sun Moon Cult!

During the attack on the main altar, they even used red cannons, which blasted a group of believers into screaming!

Several elders were killed on the spot!

The Holy Maiden of the Sun Moon Cult was furious when she saw this!

Who else could mobilize the Red Cannon?

They're definitely going to suffer this loss!

Want to launch a counterattack?

That is simply a foolish dream!

As long as the green hills remain, there will always be firewood to burn; in the end, a tactical retreat was the only option!

"Who on earth dared to leak the secrets of my Sun Moon Divine Sect! If this Holy Maiden finds out, I will surely condemn their entire family to a pool of blood!!!"

This great battle severely damaged the Sun Moon Sect; it was almost crippled, if not completely destroyed.

She had no idea that all of this was caused by the Fifth Prince!

……

The first day of the new year.

Jia Daoshi moved the lotus-like arm that was resting on his chest and got out of bed as the young lady clung to him like an octopus.

After consuming the Blood Bodhi last night, my power indeed increased significantly, so I took the opportunity to test its effects.

Indeed, both Di Qinglin and Yi Qianxiao have become stronger.

According to the customs of the Great Jing Dynasty, people visit relatives during the first month of the lunar calendar, but this begins on the second day of the new year.

So, having nothing better to do, Jia Daoshi invited Jia Bing to go fishing together in the stream behind the manor.

Jia Hu, meanwhile, was making a fire, brewing tea, roasting sweet potatoes, and popping popcorn...

Anyway, it's impossible to get Jia Hu to fish.

"Master, fishing is rather boring. Why don't we go hunting in the mountains?"

After fishing for a while, Jia Bing also lost patience and said in a literary tone.

For him, fishing was too slow; he could go half a day without catching a single fish, and it was nowhere near as exciting as hunting.

"Hunting?" Jia Daoshi was intrigued. "That's a good idea, but with the mountains blocked by heavy snow, will you be able to find any prey?"

"Of course, I'm a professional hunter."

Jia Bing said proudly, "I, Bingzi, have been following my grandfather in the mountains since I was six years old. I have seventeen years of hunting experience. I know exactly where there are rabbits, pheasants, and big insects in the mountains and forests near Yilan County. I can find their dens with my eyes closed!"
