Many descendants

A slender, graceful hand rested on Song Zhuo's shoulder from behind, and a sweet, giggling voice asked, "Lord Duke, was your trip to Shenjiang successful?"

Song Zhuo's expression was somewhat indifferent. "Hmm."

The woman turned to stand in front of Song Zhuo, her face bright and beautiful, her eyes brimming with tears, gazing at him with deep affection, "This humble concubine has missed the Duke."

The strong scent of cosmetics displeased Song Zhuo, who frowned slightly. "I have official business to attend to. You may leave now."

The woman was taken aback, but she was also very good at reading people; otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to go from being a courtesan to becoming a concubine in the Duke's mansion.

"Then this humble concubine will not disturb you any longer. Your Excellency should also take good care of your health and rest early."

Song Zhuo lowered his eyes and did not look at her.

The woman walked away with a somewhat forced smile.

After the woman left, Song Zhuo said, "Someone come here."

"Sir." A man in black appeared.

"Investigate why Lai Duocai, the brother-in-law of Minister Cai of the Ministry of Revenue, is in Shenjiang City," Song Zhuo instructed.

"Yes." The man in black disappeared.

Soon, news that Aunt Ru's attempts to please Song Zhuo had failed reached Rui Ren Courtyard.

Lin Wanyang, dressed in a silk brocade nightgown, applied creamy floral dew to her slender and delicate neck in front of the mirror.

He chuckled and said, "Today is that person's death anniversary. Even I can't be bothered to go and provoke her. How dare she? We can use this as an excuse to put pressure on her. Starting tomorrow, the allowance for the Ju family will be halved."

……

Outside the capital, at Luofeng Slope, the cawing of crows added an endless desolation and chill to the deep night.

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning struck down from the sky and hit the stone tablet at Luofeng Slope.

The stone tablet was intact, and a slender woman with unparalleled beauty sat on it.

The crows, startled by her appearance, immediately stopped cawing and flew away in fear.

Su Yan's soul entered the tribulation.

He sat blankly on the stone tablet for a long time, but couldn't figure it out.

Where is the Heavenly Way? Where is she? Is it the beast world of some child?

Su Yan was covered in sweat.

When Junli was undergoing tribulation, she at least had one identity, but when she entered the cycle of reincarnation in the Heavenly Dao, there were no clues whatsoever.

Xiao Mei had to take care of her own body and the fetus in her womb, so she didn't come with her.

The space system is unusable.

Both hands were bare, without any space rings.

Soul Space!

With a thought, Su Yan created a vast space.

But it was empty inside, there was nothing there!

Uh... she's used to using the system space and the space ring, while she's neglected her soul space.

I should have stored something in there.

Oh well, if it's not there, it's not there.

Once we find the Heavenly Dao, we'll kill him and bring him back to his rightful place.

A white figure suddenly stopped in front of Su Yan.

The other person looked at Su Yan with curiosity.

Su Yan looked at him too. Her long, white hair, reaching past her waist, was braided into a loose, languid plait, tied at the end with a gold ribbon. She had dark, alluring fox eyes, and a pair of white fox ears perched on her head…

That face... Qing Linghuan!?

Su Yan exclaimed with delight, "Huanhuan~ You're here too! That's wonderful! I can't find the Heavenly Dao, do you know where it is?"

"How do you know my name?" the visitor asked curiously.

Su Yan looked at him, a thought flashing through her mind, "You are a phantom!"

"And who are you?" Huan looked at Su Yan, especially at the area between her eyebrows.

Another figure descended from the sky.

He had long black hair, which was tied into a high ponytail. His face was exquisitely handsome, with a mysterious golden mark on his forehead, which Su Yan was very familiar with. In fact, she had just whispered sweet nothings to him when he came over.

Jian Bihuan was about half a head taller than Su Yan. He casually draped one arm over Su Yan's shoulder, and looked her over with a carefree expression. Finally, he sneered, "God Realm? Where did you come from?"
