et about him."The attendant monk walked to the side, understanding only half of what was said.Master Ching-li's Zen koans are so profound!Should I remember... or should I forgetHere, Jingli Monk leane..."Hope this letter finds you well."
Lin Zi Road is far, autumn gradually grows old. Beneath the maple trees, young men ask for well-being, their greetings become sparse!
On stage, there once was a young man, the sword master of the world, with an air of arrogance and vigor.
"In ancient times, there was a martial arts marquis from the Eastern Country, who ranked first in prowess and whose bell and tripod were passed down through generations."
You become cloud smoke and fade away.
For a grand ambition spanning thousands of miles, one must not be worn down.
> It's a heart that stays true until the end of life.
Neither have I come to think.
Only knowing that the world of Jianghu is full of turmoil.
What is this like, to come and go
Remembering the past, Your Majesty descended from the Cloudy Terrace, traveling thousands of miles to Qi.
Setting off today from Qi, it's fine to wear the moon, returning slowly.
"Foolish grey thoughts of you, little An, my words fail to express."
—"Cloud Upon Green Rain"—
A slender and powerful hand, folded a paper as light and thin as clouds.
But the weight of his worries on the thin paper was too heavy. He weighed it in his hand, then slowly spread it out.
Alone on a high floor, by the window, Jiang Wang gazed silently and read the letter again.
Though words fail to express, I hope you understand.
Besides that embrace and the sudden surge of emotion, he had not done anything else out of line. But there were certainly some changes happening.
For someone who is staring into the distance, trudging forward under a heavy burden, it is such a rare thing to lose control.
He must see his own heart.
The Lingxiao Secret Realm was one of the few places where he could truly relax and unwind on his journey. Even at his former residence, the Wuan Marquis Mansion, he couldn't escape the intricate web of the Qi State bureaucracy.
The reason why the Lingxiao Secret Realm welcomed him with open arms was Ye Qingyu, and she alone.
Perhaps he had always needed Ye Qingyu, but he hadn't...or perhaps hadn't dared to realize it before.
Now Qingyu is writing him letters again.
The letter asked him to "return slowly," which was essentially saying that the Lingxiao Pavilion would offer him protection.
He didn't know how Ye Qingyu had persuaded Ye Lingxiao.
But he knew that Yun Guo, who had always adhered to neutrality and the principle of commerce, actually lacked the strength to clash with Zhuang Guo today. Besides Ye Lingxiao himself, Yun Guo had no other notable military force.
He also did not forget that he had promised Qi Tianzi that he would not join any other country again.
He remembered more clearly, the answer he had given Ye Lingxiao when he was being chased by Zhuang Gaixian—
Even in death, I will not face the heavens.
These words held no resentment or anger. They were a manifestation of his gratitude and commitment to Lingxiao Pavilion for sheltering Jiang Anan. It was his resolve to bear everything alone, never burdening Lingxiao Pavilion.

But how to reply to Ye Qingyu
How to respond to this concern
Jiang is decisive and values time.
However, at this moment sitting by the window, she was unable to put pen to paper. She wrote and tore up sheet after sheet until finally she wrote:
Your letter has been received. Greetings to Qingyu:
>Though miles may separate us, it is a joy to see you face-to-face. I express my feelings through writing and send you my autumn greetings through these leaves.
> Having left Qi's capital city in haste, I have already passed half a month. I came and went seeking the Dao.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
I have also been drifting for a long time!
"Used to traveling alone, it is difficult to stay long."
> As I see clouds gather at the horizon, I think of the intricate patterns they form.
The Evolution of the Cloud Seal Divine Soul
"I look forward to further communication."

—Under the Maple Tree, Little Ginger—
He casually cut a yellow leaf and pressed it into the letter. Then he set it free like a cloud crane, watching it soar high into the heavens.
Although Bai Yu Xia's fortune may be a bit bumpy, her abilities are undeniable. It's hard to get into any accidents in the small Xing Yue Yuan after all.
When Jiang Wang arrived at Tianfeng Valley, Bai Yuxia had already set up a business here, buying a tavern. She changed the sign overnight and renamed it "Bai Yu Jing".
This building is situated on a cliff in the valley. It's not particularly ornate or beautiful, but it's certainly spacious and tall, consisting of twelve floors.
Before Bai Yuxia arrived, Tian Fenggu was the most prosperous place of business.
Cultivators from the Xu nation who meet the conditions can freely come to Xingyueyuan to build their star pavilions, but the Xu nation does not own Xingyueyuan. Although Jing nation lost the Battle of Xingyueyuan, cultivators from Jing nation, like those from Qi nation, can also freely come here. Only Xiang nation was defeated.
Cultivators from the State of Jing and the State of Qi both exist here, so there can be no final word on this matter.
>Where there is no order, swords and blades become the only order.
Even the Starry Moon Origin is no exception.
Here, you need to be able to protect yourself in any business, otherwise losing money is a common occurrence. This restaurant was originally quite powerful and well-equipped.
Bai Yu-xia immediately took a liking to this place, seeing it as a strategic necessity for both military and commercial gain. Therefore, she appealed to their emotions and logic, ultimately reaching a deal.
After Bai Yu-xia took over, she directly sealed the top two layers, leaving one for herself and one for Jiang Wang to live in.
The ten floors below are open for business.
Although he didn't go door-to-door visiting his neighbors, he managed to, in the shortest amount of time, get all the chaotic organizations around him to tacitly accept the rise of a new and menacing force.
On the first day of changing its sign, Baiyijing was bustling with business.
All ten floors were filled to the brim with a motley crew of influential figures from all walks of life, who had come to pay homage. Some came out of curiosity to see how the former Grand General Wu Anhou of the Qi Dynasty had fallen from grace and become just another ordinary man.
But Jiang Wang was too lazy to pay attention to these things, only practicing diligently in seclusion on the rooftop.
Bai Yu Xia was in full charge of everything. After all the forces in Xingyueyuan became familiar with each other, she shut down the tavern for five days and personally drew blueprints, determined to renovate it.
Jiang Wang cares nothing about worldly affairs, his heart is as calm and composed as a bamboo grove within his flawless chest. And so it goes.
Over these few days, Jiang Wang had been practicing cultivation and writing letters. She received all sorts of messages from An An, every one filled with longing for him. Then, with a turn of her pen, she would inquire about whether he could take care of the "Brush Writing Hero."
Left Guangxu's water-colored paper cranes also frequently flew in the illusory realm of Taixu. Let him return to Huai Kingdom Gongfu for a sit.
He naturally responded to everything, but he couldn't go anywhere.

It is worth mentioning that the Jīng Nation's prodigy, Huáng Shéli, also received a letter. It was sent from Mòběi to Xīngyuè Yuán, and its timely and accurate arrival shows the strength of the Dàjīng Huánglóngfu.
In the letter, Huang Sheli actively invited Jiang Wang to visit Huanglong Mansion.
The saying goes: "Since you are free from constraint, you should act freely. Travel east in the morning and west to the northern desert in the evening, embrace the bright moon and rest your head on a jade peak."
The letter was filled with passionate descriptions of the Jing Kingdom's scenery, mentioning things like the towering Weapon Tomb, the ghostly Hundred-li Ghost Slope, the Soul-Scattering Ridge, and the Evil Spirit Spring... It expressed that whenever Jiang Wang arrives, there would be daily sparring sessions and opportunities for improvement.

At the end of the letter, he also specially emphasized that the people of Emperor Da Jing are simple, romantic, open-minded, and will definitely not restrict a person's personal freedom...
If there hadn't been this emphasis, Jiang Wang might have really gone.
Speaking of the illusory realm.
Prior to the August 15th meeting with Ye Qingyu, Jiang Wang had already restarted his challenge of the Blessed Land. He once again defeated "Dou Xiaoer," who served as the final guardian of the Blessed Land. At that time, he was suppressing his emotions and didn't say a word to "Dou Xiaoer" throughout the entire battle. He didn't even allow "Dou Xiaoer" to finish a single sentence. Instead, he unleashed attacks like a furious storm, relentless and unceasing, until "Dou Xiaoer" was completely shattered. There wasn't even a trace left on the Dueling Platform.
Then, on the fifteenth day of the ninth month, which passed in a flash in Tianfeng Valley, he once again defeated "Dou Xiaoren," who had come to challenge after winning his spot.
Please note that I only translated the text content within the > tags and left the HTML tags as they were.
This time, "Dou Xia'er" was given the chance to speak.
"Dou Xiaoren" fought while jumping and scolding, claiming that as the descendant of a great Chu state general, he was being targeted like this. That despicable Dugu Wudi specifically positioned himself at the very end of this blessed land, repeatedly going up and down, single-handedly brushing him, Dou. He was extremely angry and indignant, determined to force Dugu Wudi to reveal his real name, declaring that the Taixu Fantasy Realm couldn't display true strength, and that he would find him in the real world to single-handedly kill him...
Jiang Wang waited quietly for him to finish cursing, then stabbed him with her sword.
And it was on this very day that the Illusory Realm once again welcomed a new rule —
Rule One: The Divine-Conferment Swordsman's ChallengeThe Swordsmanship Arena is fully open to all cultivators. Only those who have earned the illustrious title "Divine Conferred Trinity" on the Swordsmanship Arena are eligible to challenge the Blessed Land.
Rule Two: In the case of winning, Fudi Challenge can challenge a maximum of three games consecutively.
Rule three, even if a cultivator has already attained the blessings of the Blessed Lands, they can still participate in the Sword Discussing Platform challenge, but they cannot participate in the rankings for cultivators who have attained the blessings of the Blessed Lands.
By contrast, a full seventy-two Shenlin cultivators were excluded from the Jiantai rankings.
The value of the Sancai Shenlin seems to be far less than that of the Sxiang Wailu and WuXing NeiFu.
>
But considering the fundamental difference between the divine and those under the divine, it's not that hard to accept.
What is said to be "the certain rule must be the old rule, and the difficult method must have what is unsuitable."
As more and more people participate in the Illusionary Realm of Taixu, the rules of the Illusionary Realm of Taixu are also constantly being adjusted.
The new rules are clearly aimed at gradually eliminating the practice of opportunism. As more and more cultivators participate in the Illusory Realm, and the number of Divine Arrival cultivators catches up, the Illusory Realm demands contributions of "quality".
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Jiang Wang didn't care much about these things.
Regardless of the rules, he always goes his own way.
The new rules of Paradise Land affected him in only one way: as the guardian of the last paradise, after defeating the challenger, he easily defeated the next three floors.
Back to the blessed land, sixty-nine.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
And that "Douxiao'er" who swore to return, will have to crazily participate in the Dueling Stage matches for the next month, winning a top three ranking on the Dueling Stage before he has a chance to "knock again".
But it is foreseeable that, even if his challenging journey goes smoothly, it is unlikely he will encounter "Invincible" again for a while.
Being as considerate as Dugu Unbeaten, he wanted to give Dou Xia'er a more lasting and profound impression. While easily completing the Fudi challenge, he also showed each defeated Fudi owner "Dou Xia'er"'s fighting tactics.
...and impart all the tricks for defeating "Dou Xia'er".
Though these pointers might not be enough to completely halt "Dou Xiao'er"'s progress, if they deliberately conceal their strength and make careless mistakes, it wouldn't be surprising if they capsized. After all, as fellow cultivators of the Divine Presence realm, despite varying strengths, seizing an opportunity to exploit a weakness isn't impossible.
Jiang Wang was busy in the illusory realm of Taixu, fighting and teaching people non-stop.
And their restaurant, Baiyujing, welcomed its first true customer.
He came with the dawn, wearing a hooded cloak and monk's robes. He was clean and tidy, and very polite. He stood at the door, patiently waiting for the tavern to open.
In fact, it's not yet time to open for business.
The chef was still preparing the dishes, a door panel had just been partially removed, and the firecrackers hadn't been lit yet.
Although Bai Yu Xia was surprised to have someone arrive at this time, she personally greeted them: "Master, what would you like"
The monk took off his cloak, revealing a clear and refined face. He said earnestly, "I'm here to beg for alms."
No problem, to welcome guests from all directions, there must be a convenient door. Please sit here.
Bai Yu Xia did not know the intentions of the visitor, but as someone of noble bearing, she was not stingy. She invited the monk to take a seat and asked, "Do you have any preferences I have gourd wine, beef hot pot, and fernbrake soup."
The young monk clasped his hands in greeting and said, “Thank you for your kind offer, but this poor monk follows a vegetarian diet. Please give me a bowl of water and a steamed bun.”
Bai Yu Xie personally filled a bowl of water for him and brought over a white steamed bun.
"Why is this place called Baiyujing" the young monk asked. Bai Yuxia smiled, "Because it's where immortals dwell."
The monk let out an "oh" and sat down respectfully, slowly finishing his meal and drink. He thanked Bai YuXia with a bow, put on his cloak again, and left the shop.
The young monk clearly had a very clear goal in mind and soon left Tianfeng Valley, arriving at the renowned Fromlin Horse Ranch.
He didn't greet anyone along the way, not a word spoken as he walked. He found himself in the ranch's meeting hall and before the rancher, Xiong Borchen.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Changlin Horse Farm is said to have the backing of the Jing Kingdom, effectively giving them unparalleled reach. They can simultaneously engage in horse breeding ventures with both the Xiang Kingdom and the Xu Kingdom, while remaining unmoved at Xingyue原. This means they migrated once during the previous battle of Xingyue原 and quickly returned afterward.
At this time, Xiong Bochun was gathering a group of elders in the council chamber.

With a look, he stilled the agitation of the others, eyeing warily the monk who had just stepped over the threshold: "Who are you If you are truly a Buddha, why not remove your cloak and reveal your true face"
The monk only replied, "Why do you keep sending people to watch the Baiyu Jing Wine House"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
A dark look crossed Xiong Bochén's face as he coldly stated, "What does this have to do with you A monk shouldn't interfere in worldly affairs."
The monk, with the air of reciting a memorized text, said earnestly: "I have a connection with Jade Palace Restaurant and feel compelled to speak up for fairness. They've just opened and haven't offended anyone. This isn't right. Starmoon Origin is so large, Heavenwind Valley is so far away, your businesses are different, they wouldn't affect you. I don't know who is instigating this against them, but please ask them to stop. As the saying goes, enemies should be reconciled, not made. Even a ten-year monk fears tigers. Why don't we all sit down and talk things through"
Tai Bochen impatiently interrupted him: "Where are you from, monk What business do you have with the Bai Yu Jing Wine House"
The young monk proudly said, "I am a monk from Mount Sanbao! As for fate, it just manifested!"
"Damn it, just come here!" Hearing such words from a nobody like someone from Sanshǎoshan, people became particularly intolerant of his perfunctory attitude. A nearby elder from the horse farm immediately drew his sword and shouted as he slashed towards the monk: "Do you dare to defy us"
"Elder Liu, don't be rash—" Xiong Borchen feigned a stop, but naturally couldn't hold back. Watching that fierce blade come closer and closer.
The young monk remained perfectly still.
Elder Liu's swift blade slashed at the monk's chest, but only drew a long trail of sparks.
...not even a monk's robe could be pierced!
In the stunned silence, the young monk carefully removed his cloak, revealing a clean-shaven face.
Since he took it off his junior brother's head, this cloak has never left his side. At this time, he also put it back into his storage pouch first.
Then this handsome monk began to roll up his sleeves, smiling brightly and innocently: "Well, you guys attacked me first, didn't you" as peerless elegance and unparalleled talent throughout the ages...In their mouths, he was apparently even better than Chun Yu Gui, rivaling Li Yi! As the people of Zhongshan were affiliated with Jin...
