Technical work, kill two birds with one stone.

Ling Yan was very curious, but she felt that this matter was too private to ask.

After much thought, she said, "Palace Master, when will the Young Master you speak of make a decision?"

Yu Yue glanced at her and said, "Can you guess when the Young Master will make a decision? Just wait."

From Yu Yue's tone, Ling Yan heard a sense of submission.

This deepened the doubts in her heart.

Who exactly was this Young Master, to be able to make the Palace Master of Yaochi Immortal Palace willingly serve as a subordinate?

...

Eternal Immortal Domain, Imperial Capital of the Great Jing Immortal Dynasty.

Above the imperial court, Shen Biru, dressed in a Five-Clawed Golden Dragon imperial robe and wearing an emperor's crown, sat proudly on the imperial throne, looking down upon her officials.

After advancing to the Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm, her kingly aura became even stronger.

Her expressionless beautiful face, her dignified demeanor, and the unquestionable assertiveness in her tone all displayed the bearing of an empress.

However, this beautiful face was now deeply furrowed with worry, her eyes filled with concern.

The atmosphere in the imperial court was somewhat heavy, with the various ministers standing silently on both sides below the hall, equally worried.

"What are the casualties?" Shen Biru asked in a deep voice.

Someone stepped forward from below the hall and said:

"Your Majesty, those otherworldly Cultivators are truly too powerful. Our soldiers are overwhelmed, and casualties have exceeded half."

"Not only that, the territories we spent countless manpower to conquer in previous years are also being lost. Currently, the territory our Great Jing Immortal Dynasty can control is less than seventy percent of what it was a few years ago."

"Those otherworldly Cultivators have not stopped; their offensive continues. According to battle reports from the front line, if there is no support, I fear that in another half a year, our Great Jing Immortal Dynasty will lose another twenty percent of its territory."

"Those otherworldly Cultivators do not wish to occupy our territory; they only slaughter and plunder. All living things are killed by them, and all cultivation resources are plundered by them."

"If this trend continues, in less than three years, our Great Jing Immortal Dynasty will probably only have the Imperial Capital left."

As these words were spoken, the officials fell silent, not a sound to be heard.

The atmosphere was terrifyingly heavy; the crisis of national subjugation and extinction was approaching step by step.

Shen Biru's beautiful eyes closed slightly, and she sighed deeply in her heart.

The imperial seal in her hand was entwined with imperial Qi, but her Luck was becoming increasingly chaotic, constantly draining away.

The national fortune of the Great Jing Immortal Dynasty was on the verge of collapse.

Shen Biru said in a deep voice, "Is there any good strategy to repel the enemy?"

The officials remained silent; the opponent was simply too strong.

The otherworldly Cultivators sweeping through outside included over a dozen Taiyi True Immortals, led by three Taiyi Golden Immortals.

Those three possessed a combined attack technique that could rival a Grand Unity Golden Immortal.

And these were only their superficial strengths.

The Primordial Angel in the Golden Immortal Realm under her command made a move, intending to clear out those people, but was actually slapped down by an invisible large hand, unable to exert any strength at all.

Before invading the Great Jing Immortal Dynasty, those otherworldly Cultivators had already annihilated the Great Zhou Immortal Dynasty, which was comparable in strength to the Great Jing Immortal Dynasty, and the Old Ancestor of the Great Zhou Immortal Dynasty had already died.

The officials of the Great Jing Immortal Dynasty seemed to see their future in the shadow of the Great Zhou Immortal Dynasty.

The disparity in strength made them see no hope of victory.

No one answering Shen Biru's words made her feel even more frustrated.

She had originally thought that after advancing to the Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm, she would steadily cultivate and gradually build a large Empire for her husband's enjoyment.

Unexpectedly, before her wish could be realized, she first faced the calamity of national destruction.

Shen Biru felt a bit weary. If Xiao Fan were by her side, it would be great; he would surely have a way to solve the problem, and she would have a shoulder to lean on.

"Let's adjourn the court. I'm a bit tired."

Shen Biru flicked her sleeves and left. Entangled in worldly affairs, she hadn't had a good rest in a long time.

After thinking for a moment, Shen Biru went to the palace built for Xiao Fan. Everything inside remained unchanged, and it was regularly cleaned.

Seeing things made her miss him. His scent still lingered in the inner chamber, and only there could she feel at ease, feeling as if Xiao Fan was by her side.

Shen Biru sat on the jade couch, a bitter smile on her cold and majestic beautiful face, revealing the demeanor of a young woman, different from her imperial bearing.

"Husband, if you were here, you would definitely have a solution, right?"

Shen Biru only thought about it. She knew that Xiao Fan had his own matters to attend to and couldn't always look after her.

"What, are you thinking about me?"

A soft laugh rang out. That unrestrained tone made Shen Biru's beautiful face stiffen, and her dormant heart also ignited.

She slowly turned her head, looking towards the source of the sound, her surprised beautiful eyes filled with delight.

Husband!

Shen Biru's beautiful eyes shimmered with tears of joy. The person standing before her was indeed Xiao Fan.

Her heart filled with happiness, she eagerly rushed towards Xiao Fan, embracing him tightly.

Her soft, fair hands tightly embraced Xiao Fan's strong waist, like a shy maiden, without a trace of the Empress's majestic aura.

Xiao Fan gently patted her jade back and rubbed her head. A refreshing fragrance wafted towards him, which Xiao Fan greatly enjoyed.

After a long while, Shen Biru reluctantly emerged from his embrace, her eyes filled with joy.

"Husband, why have you come?" Shen Biru asked happily.

That feeling of having her wishes granted made her feel incredibly secure. She felt that she was valued by Xiao Fan and had met someone who deeply loved her.

"Hehe, aren't I here because I care about you?"

"The world hasn't been peaceful lately, and I knew you might have trouble here, so I specifically came to see. If there's really any difficulty, I'll help you solve it conveniently."

Xiao Fan said gently, full of concern.

These words fell into Shen Biru's ears, and her heart felt as sweet as honey.

He cares about me!

Xiao Fan continued, "See, I just arrived and already heard you thinking about me."

Shen Biru was overcome with shame and said, "This concubine's strength is insufficient; I've caused trouble for husband."

"How could that be? It's my limited ability that I couldn't create a safe external environment for you," Xiao Fan said, shaking his head.

After hearing this, Shen Biru's heart blossomed with joy. He truly cares about me.

Of course, women love to hear sweet words. Say more of what they like to hear, words that make them feel cared for, and their IQ will plummet.

Xiao Fan was well-versed in this!

"Tell me, what difficulties are you facing?" Xiao Fan said with a smile.

Shen Biru felt she had found someone to rely on. She poured out all the grievances she had suffered these past few days.

"Recently, a group of Cultivators, from who knows where, invaded my Great Jing Immortal Dynasty, seizing my Immortal Dynasty's land and killing my Immortal Dynasty's citizens. Wherever they passed, there was a scene of tragic death."

"I sent a large army to suppress them, but they were severely wounded, losing more than half of their forces."

"Those Cultivators are too strong; they have factions and are organized, truly difficult to deal with."

At this point, Shen Biru said shamefully, "I have failed your expectations, husband; I couldn't conquer a vast territory for you."

Xiao Fan pinched her beautiful face, gently wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said, "This is not your fault. You might not know their origins."

Shen Biru asked curiously, "Husband, do you mean they have a great background?"

Xiao Fan nodded and said, "Yes, they come from other realms. Being able to cross realms and teleport here, they are naturally powerful forces from other realms. It's normal that you couldn't stop them."

After hearing this, Shen Biru breathed a sigh of relief.

She had thought it was her own problem; it turned out the opponents were elites from a major power.

"Husband, do you have a way to deal with them? There won't be any danger, will there?"

As Shen Biru spoke, her jade hand tightly held Xiao Fan's hand, a hint of unease in her words.

Xiao Fan smoothed her hair, saying carelessly, "There will certainly be some difficulty, and even some price to pay, but for you, everything is worth it."

Xiao Fan spoke lightly.

But the more casual he appeared, the more Shen Biru felt that the price involved must be very great.

He was just pretending to be relaxed so that I wouldn't be nervous.

At this moment, Shen Biru could no longer suppress the affection in her heart.

Her jade hands hooked around Xiao Fan's neck, pulling him down forcefully, and her jade feet gently tiptoed.

Her red lips parted slightly, full and luscious, offering a sweet and soft kiss.

Mmm~

Xiao Fan could feel her affection gradually shifting from tender to fervent.

His words had deepened her love for him once again.

Nurturing a relationship is a skill.

You must make a woman feel that you are willing to pay a price for her, and even if there is no price, you must fabricate one.

This is giving.

Even if you've done nothing, you must create an image of silent devotion and unspoken love in her imagination.

Emotions require deception; this was Xiao Fan's realization.

After a long while, their lips parted.

Shen Biru's face was flushed, her eyes filled with an unyielding love, seeing only Xiao Fan.

Xiao Fan smiled and said, "Alright, now I'll help you solve those troubles."

Shen Biru nodded and said, "Yes, everything as husband wishes."

Above the sky of the Great Jing Immortal Dynasty.

Two exquisite women floated high above the clouds, like Fairies in the clouds.

One of them had two small, smooth Dragon horns on her smooth, jade-like forehead, and a green Dragon tail swayed like a willow branch, graceful and charming.

The woman next to her exuded the flow of the Great Dao, the aura of the mundane Heavenly Dao, profound and rich with charm.

These two were Chen Miaoli and Dragon Ningbing.

The two were acquainted with each other. Chen Miaoli spoke, "What kind of person is he?"

Dragon Ningbing replied, "The Young Master is a good person; he is very special."

Chen Miaoli said, "Anything else?"

Dragon Ningbing blurted out, "I like the Young Master very much; does that count?"

But as soon as she finished speaking, she regretted it a bit. How could she say such a thing in front of others? Dragon Ningbing couldn't help but blush, turning her head away somewhat unnaturally.

She hummed a little tune to ease the awkwardness.

Chen Miaoli looked at Dragon Ningbing, lost in thought.

She felt that this expert seemed a bit naive in her mindset.

"Why hasn't he given a signal yet? Didn't he say he was going to act?" Chen Miaoli looked at the people below, her heart filled with killing intent.

These blood meals, one by one, made her unable to suppress the bloodthirsty killing intent in her heart.

Dragon Ningbing said, "The Young Master will not break his word. He said he would personally deliver the blood meals to you. You just need to wait patiently."

"Alright."

It turned out that before Xiao Fan met Shen Biru, he had already arranged Chen Miaoli's matters.

Shen Biru's strength was insufficient; she was only a Taiyi Golden Immortal, making it difficult for her to protect herself during the great calamity, let alone guard the Immortal Dynasty. She would inevitably be attacked by many otherworldly Cultivators.

And Xiao Fan had come precisely to protect her, to clear out those otherworldly Cultivators for her.

Incidentally, he would use these people as blood meals to feed Chen Miaoli's Dark Devouring Demonic God Body.

Courting also requires efficiency. Doing one thing benefits both of his women.

Killing two birds with one stone!

Before long, the sky above the Great Jing Immortal Dynasty was gloomy, with dark clouds piling up, obscuring the sun and covering the sky, and snow falling everywhere.

In the snowflakes, it was as if proverbs echoed, and someone was chanting scriptures.

When Dragon Ningbing saw the snow falling everywhere, she said to Chen Miaoli, "Get ready; the snow falling everywhere that the Young Master spoke of has appeared."
