Chapter 1132: Chapter 1131: Mortal Transformation or Sustained by War?

"She just lucked out in winning, failing once means nothing, everyone keep pushing, let’s make her use a second move!"

Fairy Eternity motivated everyone effectively.

Although everyone had played their best cards, expended a huge amount of energy, and after a tough battle, still got defeated by Yun Zhi, they didn’t feel tired and appeared very spirited.

Before returning to the Abode, they had all lain on the ground and slept for a long time, now waking up and feeling mostly rested.

Their injuries were more serious than Lu Yang’s, but they had various methods to heal at an astonishing rate, and they were soon back in form.

In the blink of an eye, Emperor Dou personally led the troops, everyone marched grandiosely, leaving only Lu Yang alone in the empty house.

Lu Yang blinked his eyes, not understanding what they were up to.

He ate a piece of flower cake while drinking Enlightenment Tea, and realized something was wrong, quickly picking up a book to shake it.

"Oh no, crumbs fell into the crease of the book!"

When Lu Yang was engrossed in the Cultivation Technique, looking up a second time, he just caught the Great Bean Dynasty troops returning defeated.

"Failing fifteen times means nothing, everyone keep pushing..."

Watching everyone who did not forget to close the door softly before departing, Lu Yang absentmindedly ate a Spirit Fruit, suddenly making a grimace.

"So sour, what kind of Spirit Fruit is this?"

The third time he looked up, Fairy Eternity was once again motivating everyone:

"Failing eighty times means nothing, everyone take a break."

The people were so exhausted they staggered around, no longer having the strength to fight, even Qinghe simply collapsed on the ground from fatigue.

Even though they all were Semi-Immortals, they couldn’t withstand such repeated battles.

However, there were gains too, their combined tactics were advancing rapidly, the only problem was the enemy was too strong, their progress couldn’t be seen.

Lu Yang’s lips twitched, finally he couldn’t hold back and asked, "Fairy, what are you all doing?"

"Conquering strong enemies, extending territories!"

"Establishing unparalleled achievements, to be immortalized in Bean history!"

"Challenging oneself, breaking through limits!"

"Being honored as Marquis, reaching the pinnacle among officials!"

"One conquest forever, securing the land permanently!"

Everyone’s slogan reflected their own goals, Yun Mengmeng and others were shouting excitedly, seemingly not very tired.

The history of the Great Bean Dynasty’s battles was a history of tears and blood, with over eighty battles both big and small, not only did Emperor Dou personally lead the troops, all three Great Generals were mobilized, even the Historian and Minister of Rites who were civil officials had abandoned their pens to join the grim war.

Emperor Dou grieved for the hardships of the common people, regardless of how bad the battle situations were, he absolutely refused to tax them, not adding burdens to the common people, truly a wise ruler of his generation.

"We are fighting Miss Yun!" Fairy Eternity stated with hands on hips, head up as if engaging in something very remarkable.

Boom—

The doors of the Abode opened, the target of the conquest actively sought them out.

"Eldest Senior Sister!" Lu Yang raised his hands, honestly calling out to show he was innocent.

Yun Zhi glanced at the book on Lu Yang’s table, and the notes spread all over, nodded in satisfaction, "Fairy predecessor said you were compiling a Cultivation Technique, they didn’t want to disturb you at the Abode, so they went out to find some things to do. I’m just passing by to see if that’s really the case."

Lu Yang’s eyes twitched, Fairy, you guys might as well have stayed at the Abode playing cards or Mahjong.

"Well done, keep up the studying."

With a few words of encouragement, Yun Zhi prepared to leave, but was stopped by Lu Yang.

"Eldest Senior Sister, if I want to stabilize my realm, should I choose the path of living in peace or the path of fighting to sustain fighting?"

Yun Zhi thought about it and said, "Actually, it doesn’t really matter."

Lu Yang nodded, somewhat understanding Eldest Senior Sister’s point, "Eldest Senior Sister, you mean all roads lead to Rome, and no matter which one I choose, they essentially are the process of understanding one’s heart and validating it, aligning with my cultivation technique, right?"

"No, what I mean is, given your luck, even if you choose to live in peace, it will eventually turn into fighting to sustain."

"..."

Eldest Senior Sister, that makes me sad. Although I enjoy fighting, I never intentionally start conflicts. It is just that the Great Era’s conflicts have arrived, and battles are breaking out everywhere. I just inadvertently get dragged into them.

"Don’t be afraid, Little Yang. The Great Bean Dynasty will always be your strong backbone. Just go on and live in peace, and if you encounter any battles, we’ll fight them for you!" Fairy Eternity said with great loyalty.

The Great Bean Dynasty stood unyielding for years, growing larger and even establishing Crown Prince Lu Yang, all thanks to Fairy Eternity who did not care about abilities but only about close relationships, appointing people purely based on merit and harboring the spirit of brotherhood.

After Eldest Senior Sister left, Lu Yang sighed heavily, unsure of when Eldest Senior Sister would come to assist him and when this undercover identity would end.

In cultivation, there are no seasons. Lu Yang locked himself in his abode, studying tirelessly both day and night, while the rest of the Great Bean Dynasty folks locked themselves in his abode as well, playing around day and night.

Both parties had their own things to do, and the time passed peacefully.

"It’s about time," Lu Yang picked up a stack of paper and flicked it lightly.

These days, he researched cultivation techniques, gleaned meanings, peeled layers after layers, and combined with his understanding, he finally had a piece of work to show.

Then, with a bang, the papers turned to bits of dust.

Lu Yang covered his face. Just now, he had suddenly surged to the Early Tribulation Stage and couldn’t control his strength, reducing his work to ashes.

Luckily, it was his own work, and he could rewrite it quickly.

"I’ll go to Eldest Senior Sister."

Lu Yang had mostly recovered by now; he could walk without limping and didn’t need support.

He opened the entrance to his abode, and Fairy Eternity and others followed him like bodyguards.

Lu Yang found Eldest Senior Sister at the summit of Sky Gate Mountain, where she had been spending her time recently.

Eldest Senior Sister was sitting on the Emperor’s Chair, holding a book of sword techniques while Third Senior Sister blindly played the zither by her, the scenery picturesque as the wind rustled through the grass.

Seeing Lu Yang arrive, Yun Zhi subtly put away the book of sword techniques, but Yun Mengmeng still caught her.

"Ah, Xiao Zhi, you’re looking at the sword techniques again. Can’t you be like me, if you can’t learn it, just give it up?"

Yun Zhi pretended not to hear Yun Mengmeng’s comment, not stooping to argue with her bosom sister.

"Is the cultivation technique finished?"

"Yes."

Lu Yang respectfully handed the cultivation technique to Yun Zhi.

Yun Zhi looked it over and quietly uttered two words, "Not bad."

Compared to when he first started writing cultivation techniques, the junior brother had clearly made significant progress.

"Let me see, let me see."

Hearing Xiao Zhi praise the Second-in-command, Yun Mengmeng clamored to see it, and Ao Ling, Qinghe, and others also shoved their heads together to look at the cultivation technique in Yun Mengmeng’s hands.

"Indeed, not bad." Qinghe was surprised. Although there were a few flaws, those were based on her current perception. If it were her in the Void Refinement Stage, she definitely couldn’t possibly write such a level of cultivation technique.

"Young Sect Master is really impressive."

"Of course, how can our Second-in-command be anything but impressive?"

"Eldest Senior Sister, then this cultivation technique..." Lu Yang looked at Yun Zhi with anticipation.

"Only needs forty percent modification."
