Overseas.

The Shangguan family.

Lady Bi Zhu yawned and got up from the bed.

The moonlight outside shone in.

Exceptionally bright.

“The moon really is brighter overseas.”

It was much brighter than in the southern region.

But there were fewer people here, just an endless expanse of ocean waves, and many things were different from the various regions.

Logically speaking, with the vastness of overseas, there should be an Immortal Clan.

Mountains of the immortals, sacred grounds of celestials, it’s what the books say.

Unfortunately, immortal sects look down on overseas because every region has extraordinary places.

There’s no need to nestle in a place that’s all sea.

Especially here where there are so many races, and most of them live perennially in the deep sea.

No need to compete with them.

Coming outside, Lady Bi Zhu saw Auntie Qiao keeping watch as always.

“Auntie Qiao, how come you’re always keeping watch?”

Hearing this, Auntie Qiao turned her head and said, “If I don’t keep watch, I’m afraid the Princess won’t be able to sleep.”

“I can still sleep,” Lady Bi Zhu came over and sat down, chuckling, “The Shangguan family combined is no match for me. I, as the royal family’s number one talent, am not someone they can provoke.”

“Don’t they also have immortal beasts?” Auntie Qiao asked.

“They do, but it’s not like I’m without means,” Lady Bi Zhu said with a smile. “If their spirit beasts dare to clash with us, we’ll eat them.”

The Princess was truly bold, but speaking of the royal family’s number one talent, Auntie Qiao thought of that genius from the royal family, “The little Princess should be very strong by now, right?”

“Hmm, after so many decades, she’s probably approaching my second brother,” Lady Bi Zhu said.

Her second brother was at most at the Spirit Refinement Realm, and the royal family’s number one talent, with nearly absolute resources, would naturally rise quickly.

Especially with that incredible spirit beast by her side.

“Aren’t you going back to have a look?” Auntie Qiao curiously said, “Now, not just the royal family, but other sects also know the little Princess is the royal family’s number one talent.”

“If it really comes to it, I’ll step aside for her. I’ll be the royal family’s number one Princess,” Lady Bi Zhu said earnestly.

Auntie Qiao: “…”

You ascended at eighteen; that title is beneath you.

At this time, Lady Bi Zhu was communicating with Gu Changsheng.

She had some things she needed to ask about.

Soon, there was a response: “Senior, it’s just the start of the month, and you can already respond.”

“What do you want?” Gu Changsheng’s voice came through, “As you know, it’s a bit troublesome for me before the time comes.”

“Senior, do you know about the Star Curse?” Lady Bi Zhu asked.

“The Star Curse? That’s a curse passed down from the era of the Human Emperor. It uses the stars as the curse to form a prison. To walk out is simple; use a person as the curse, integrate into it, and one can leave,” Gu Changsheng said.

“Teach me, Senior,” Lady Bi Zhu immediately said.

“Why should I teach you?” Gu Changsheng asked.

“Because I need to go exchange for a Lifeblood Refinement method to strengthen the Shangguan family,” Lady Bi Zhu thought for a moment and said, “If Senior thinks that strengthening the Shangguan family isn’t important, then I won’t need it.”

“Didn’t I already give you a method for strengthening the Shangguan family?” Gu Changsheng’s voice came over.

“Then has Senior thought about how to ensure they successfully advance or temporarily withdraw without harm under the agony of the Hundred Night Curse?” Lady Bi Zhu replied.

Gu Changsheng was silent for a moment.

Lady Bi Zhu continued, “If they fail their advancement due to the curse, that’s one thing, but what if they die? If they die during ascension, I waste a bit of time, which is nothing, but it would delay Senior’s return.”

“I am, after all, eighteen years old, young.”

“Is Senior also eighteen years old?”

Gu Changsheng was silent once again.

After a long while, his voice came through, “When I return, you will probably still be only eighteen years old. It seems I’m very close to my return.”

Lady Bi Zhu: “…”

However, she quickly received something related to the curse.

There was a way to break it, as well as a way to learn it.

The more she examined it, the happier she became; this thing was good.

Auntie Qiao watched from the side, not interrupting.

An eighteen-year-old Princess mysteriously giggling to herself was quite normal.

She must still have her childlike innocence.

——

Seven days later.

The Human Emperor’s Mausoleum.

Xu Bai finally obtained the method to break the curse.

Spending three days, he successfully walked out of the Star Curse.

Afterward, he continued deeper inside. There were tests of spells, tests of primordial spirit, and tests of spiritual energy.

However, nothing could stop his progress.

His mastery in formation, his application of great momentum.

He handled them with ease.

It was as if he could do everything.

His figure, as tiny as it was, seemed like a giant between heaven and earth, propping up the sky.

Three months later.

Mid-October.

Xu Bai arrived in front of a yard, a simple thatched cottage, surrounded by some fruit trees and some domestic animals.

Seeing this scene, Xu Bai knew he’d probably arrived at his destination.

He had many gains along the way.

The dao returned to his heart, understanding this, his journey was very smooth.

Otherwise, dreaming of reaching this spot in three months would be foolish.

Xu Bai walked to the gate of the yard, glanced inside, but didn’t see anyone.

He spoke softly: “Is anyone there?”

There was no response.

Xu Bai was not in a hurry, and continued to inquire.

After a short time.

Suddenly, he heard a voice from behind: “Is the young master looking for me?”

The sudden voice made one’s hair stand on end.

Since when had there been someone behind him?

He turned to look.

It was a middle-aged man dressed in coarse linen, holding some wild vegetables in his hand.

In appearance, nothing more than a common man.

Upon seeing the man, Xu Bai bowed respectfully, “Junior Xu Bai, I greet you, Senior.”

“Senior?” The middle-aged man chuckled, “I’m just an ordinary man, and the young master looks extraordinary at first glance.”

“Senior is jesting with this junior,” Xu Bai said modestly, lowering his head.

“Come in and have a seat,” the middle-aged man opened the yard’s gate, curious, “Why didn’t you just come in yourself? The door wasn’t locked.”

“I didn’t dare to intrude,” Xu Bai shook his head.

“Why? Because my place is out of the ordinary?” Sitting down by a wooden chair, the middle-aged man started washing the vegetables.
