By the time the sun hung in the southeastern sky, more than half an hour had passed.During this time, the rattle-drum seller’s stall steadily drew in parents with their children.

In the mountain forests after the rain, mist lingered, enveloping the distant peaks. Half-hidden in the clouds, the mountains’ full majesty was obscured, leaving an air of mystery. The first rays of morning sunlight pierced through the mist, casting the wilderness in the soft hues of an ink wash painting. Inside the wooden hut turned classroom, the “three little quails” were each covered with a thin blanket, sprawled haphazardly on the ground in deep slumber. Gu Ning’an stepped out…

The woman alternated between scolding and pouring out the worries she’d carried for Li Fangchang over the years. She truly treated him as her own son—perhaps even more so than her actual child, investing far more effort and care into him. Li Fangchang wasn’t ungrateful; he too regarded this woman as his mother. So, even now, as a grown man, he didn’t mind when she scolded or beat him. He knew it was her way of expressing love. At this moment, the storm raged outside, while the…

At an old wooden table, a nervous Li Fangchang sat across from the charming woman, wringing his hands repeatedly. After a long pause, he stammered, “May… may I ask for the lady’s name?” The woman extended her index finger, dipped it lightly in the tea before her, and began writing on the table. “Yu Zhengzheng?” Li Fangchang read the delicate script on the table and couldn’t help joking, “Miss, you’re so graceful, but your name sounds so strong and unyielding.” “Hehe…”…

Chapter 126: A Good Match
"Mr. Gu, do you think Sister Hu and Teacher Li were a good match?" Wang Sheng asked curiously. Gu Ning'an smiled and replied, "It's hard to say. Whether they're suitable or not is up to them." "Oh, Wang Sheng, what a pointless question!" "Sister Hu seems like a good-natured person, but the size difference between her and Teacher Li is just too much. Of course, they're not a good match," Tang Zi interjected. Nearby, Sun De nodded sagely and added, "Confucius said, 'When paths differ,…-

Chapter 125: Matchmaking
Around the dinner table, everyone enjoyed their meal, savoring the stir-fried vegetables with shredded meat. At first, the three children seemed shy around strangers. However, after a few words, they became increasingly talkative, each outdoing the other. Before a stick of incense could burn out, the three students had spilled all the details about their teacher. Li Fangchang, it turned out, had been a “prodigy” from a young age. By the age of five, he could recite the Four Books and…-

The weather in the mountains changes quickly. At morning's end, the sun was still shining brightly, but by the third quarter of the hour before noon, the sky had turned overcast with dense clouds. Fortunately, the heavy rain didn’t fall until after Gu Ning’an had descended the mountain. Large raindrops splattered on the ground, treetops, and even birds, each producing distinct plip-plap sounds. In an instant, the once tranquil mountain path became lively. Birds and beasts either sought…

Chapter 123: The Sea of Flowers
After Gu Ning’an delivered the ghost cultivator and the ghost sword to the Yin Division in Lingwu County, he felt that the karmic ties with Ying Du and his master had been resolved. Thus, he set out on his journey once more. This trip had brought him two strands of Worldly Qi, one from Ying Du and the other from Liu Feixue. The Worldly Qi from Ying Du was easy to explain.

Chapter 122: The Mortal Path
“A concealment technique like yours is indeed profound—it completely escaped my perception,” the ghost cultivator said in a calm tone. For someone like him, a ghost cultivator who had committed countless atrocities, meeting a cultivator of the immortal path would usually result in an immediate fight without a word exchanged. But now, his composure suggested he had a method to counter Gu Ning’an, leaving him unshaken. Seeing Gu Ning’an remain silent, the ghost cultivator stood up,…-

Streaks of scattered moonlight filtered through the window slits, casting a glow on Liu Feixue’s profile. Her slightly red lips shimmered with an alluring light. This sleeping woman, who exuded a heroic aura during the day, now seemed tranquil and delicate, a striking contrast. Ying Du’s right hand, raised high in preparation, trembled slightly from the exertion. He gritted his teeth and muttered, “Damn it! How can someone’s face be so captivating?” “Who could bear to lay a…
