Please, marry a white snake wife. It’s super cool.

Lu Yuan, who was about to leave the imperial city, excitedly held Zhao Qiaoer's chubby face and looked straight into her big, twinkling eyes.

The two of them just stood in front of the mansion gate, completely ignoring the servants who were carrying things back and forth.

"Hey, nephew, what are you doing? So many people are watching."

As Zhao Qiaoer spoke, she subconsciously tilted her head back.

Lu Yuan lifted Zhao Qiao'er to his mouth, kissed her twice on the forehead, and then said, "Aunt Zhao, we are going back to Taining City."

Zhao Qiaoer was stunned when she heard this, and then asked, "Can we really leave here?"

In the past two or three years, Zhao Qiaoer has long wanted to return to Taining City.

Because Lu Yuan was an official here, he never mentioned this matter.

Now, Lu Yuan told her in person that he was going back to Taining City, and she was so happy.

Lu Yuan nodded and said, "Yes, we will stay in Taining City for a longer time this time, so everyone should prepare their things."

This time when he returned to Taining City, if possible, Lu Yuan didn’t want to go back to the imperial city.

Lu Yuan only told Su Liyan and Gu Ziyue about this idea.

Gu Ziyue knew in her heart that Lu Yuan did not like staying in the imperial city as an official.

Lu Yuan has not been very happy in the imperial city in the past two or three years. Most of the time he has been practicing alone in his room.

Gu Ziyue had prepared herself mentally and left with Lu Yuan.

After Gu Ziyue got married, she was able to stay with her parents for two or three years, and she felt very satisfied.

Throughout the dynasties, there were countless princesses who, once married, could never see their parents again in their lifetime.

In comparison, Gu Ziyue is already considered a lucky princess.

Although Zhao Qiaoer didn't understand what Lu Yuan meant, she was still very happy.

Zhao Qiaoer twisted her hips and walked towards the mansion, leaving a message: "Let's go tell the other sisters to pack their bags and leave as soon as possible."

After Lu Yuan and others packed up, they did not delay too much in the imperial city and set off as soon as possible with Su Changliang's family.

This time, Su Changliang and his family were able to come to the imperial city, and Lu Yuan took this opportunity to return to Taining City with them.

The two families can also take care of each other.

In this way, it became natural for Lu Yuan to lead his family back to Taining City.

Not long after Lu Yuan's convoy set off, he noticed that a team of Jinyiwei were following them at a certain distance.

It seems that the emperor is still worried about Lu Yuan!
Lu Yuan used the sound transmission technique to say to Su Liyan and Xiaoqian, "Can we use the French method to shake off the Jinyiwei behind the convoy?"

Among this group of people, we need to get rid of them without alerting the Jinyiwei.

I'm afraid only Su Liyan and Xiaoqian can do it, as they have some similarities in terms of method.

That is the psychedelic technique of Xiaoqian and Su Liyan!

Under Lu Yuan's instructions, Su Liyan and Xiaoqian formed seals with their hands and chanted spells in the car at the same time when the convoy arrived at the fork in the road.

Soon, the Jinyiwei followed and entered the magic circle set up by Su Liyan and Xiaoqian.

This team of Jinyiwei quickly lost the target they were tracking.

One of the Jinyiwei caught up with the leading Jinyiwei and said, "Master Qianhu, the tracking magic weapon has failed."

The captain took the magic weapon from the Jinyiwei, shook it in his hand, and patted it.

"Damn it, it lost its effect at the critical moment." The captain threw the tracking weapon to the ground.

The tracking weapon that fell to the ground suddenly lit up green light again, pointing to the road in the front left.

Qianhu picked up the tracking weapon on the ground again and shouted, "Chase!"

After the captain gave the order, the Jinyiwei followed.

After the Jinyiwei left, the surrounding environment quietly changed, revealing its original appearance.

The three-way road in the fantasy world is different from the three-way road in reality.

At this time, the Jinyiwei were walking on a road in the illusion, but in fact they were passing through the woods.

The tracking device that Qianhu threw on the ground was left under a big tree.

The tracking weapon that Qianhu picked up was transformed from a feces stone.

After getting rid of the Jinyiwei's tracking.

Lu Yuan's convoy did not head towards Taining City, but went to Taihe Mountain.

Several months ago, Lu Yuan and Gu Ziyue discussed going to Taihe Mountain to see their daughter.

After traveling for several days, the convoy arrived at the foot of Taihe Mountain.

Lu Yuan asked his confidants and palace guards to rest at the post station at the foot of the mountain.

Zhao Qiaoer, Song Meiqi and Gu Ziyue did not go up the mountain with Lu Yuan and Su Liyan because they had to take care of their own children.

The post station at the foot of the mountain was set up with a psychedelic array by Su Liyan and Xiaoqian.

Ordinary people cannot find this post station.

In the next few days, the innkeeper was also puzzled.

Since Lu Yuan and others arrived at the post station, no one else has come to stay overnight.

Lu Yuan and Su Liyan climbed up Mount Taihe.

Taihe Mountain towers into the clouds, and there is a Taoist temple on the top of the mountain.

Taoist Master Quanyi lived in that Taoist temple.

Halfway up the mountain, Lu Yuan and his companion met a Taoist priest who was coming down the mountain.

The Taoist priest looked at Lu Yuan and the others and thought to himself, "This woman has a pair of pointed ears. She must be from the half-demon tribe."

The Taoist priest asked curiously, "My two patrons, please don't go any further."

"Why is this?" Su Liyan asked.

The Taoist priest put down the medicine basket behind him and said to Lu Yuan and the others, "My dear master, I don't know that there are rituals going on in the mountains recently, so I don't have time to take care of you two."

"Ritual?" Lu Yuan was a little doubtful.

According to Taoist regulations, performing rituals also depends on the right time and place.

There have been no grand religious activities in recent days.

The Taoist priest continued, "Some time ago, there was a sudden rainstorm in the Central Plains, thousands of hectares of fertile land were flooded, and thousands of people died of starvation. I have specially performed a ritual to pray for the people's salvation."

The Taoist priests of this temple are quite considerate of the people, and Lu Yuan and the others respect them even more.

"Excuse me, Master Quanyi, are you still in the temple now?" Lu Yuan asked.

The purpose of Lu Yuan's visit this time was just to see his daughter and he would not disturb others too much.

The Taoist thought for a moment and replied, "Master Quanyi travels around the world and does not live in the temple all the time. He is not in the temple at the moment."

"Thank you, Taoist Priest!" Lu Yuan and Su Liyan moved to the side to make way for him to go down the mountain.

After the Taoist priest left, Su Liyan looked at Lu Yuan and asked, "Brother, what should we do?"

"Forget it, let's go down the mountain for now." Lu Yuan turned around, holding Su Liyan's hand and walked down the mountain.

Along the way, the two did not talk much.

After returning to the inn, Zhao Qiaoer saw the two and asked, "Why are you back so early?"

Su Liyan looked unhappy and said with a pout, "The old Taoist priest is not in the temple." After Lu Yuan returned to his room, he used the art of divination.

On weekdays, Lu Yuan seldom uses this method, for he knows that it can cause too much harm to the body and easily make one lose the joy of life.

Lu Yuan calculated that in three days, Taoist Quanyi would bring his daughter here.

Therefore, Lu Yuan and others stayed in the inn for three days just to see their eldest daughter Lu Ruyan.

Three days later, a little girl with long, shiny black braids appeared at the foot of Taihe Mountain.

She was wearing a light blue tight dress, a little over one meter tall, and holding a branch in her hand.

The little girl was holding a branch she had picked up and hitting the weeds that were growing vigorously on the roadside. The weeds were about 70 to 80 centimeters tall.

A branch was pulled down, and the weeds were cut in half, like a row of soldiers being knocked to the ground.

It feels so good!

The little girl stopped and looked at the woods in the distance, only to feel that the space seemed a little shaky.

The little girl didn't hesitate at all. She recited the spell silently, and the branches in her hands became a little colder.

A volley in the air!
The branch held in the little girl's hand swung out an extremely cold air, shattering the space in the distance.

The branch in the little girl's hand couldn't withstand such a strong impact and broke into several pieces.

With such strength, even soldiers who have fought for many years cannot wield such powerful sword energy, and the striking distance has never been achieved by anyone before.

The forest over there also revealed its true appearance.

An inn suddenly appeared there, with a layer of frost covering the roof tiles...

The old shopkeeper at the counter sneezed and said, "It's not even early autumn yet, why do I feel a little chilly?"

The old shopkeeper should thank the heaven, the earth, and for staying away from the little girl.

Otherwise, the entire posthouse would be destroyed.

Su Liyan and Xiaoqian in the inn were the first to notice that the psychedelic formation set up around the inn had been broken.

In a room on the second floor, Su Liyan, who was still chatting with Lu Yuan and others, suddenly sat up in shock and said, "The formation has been broken, there is a master nearby!"

It is not easy to break the formation jointly set up by Su Liyan and Xiaoqian.

The center of the formation is extremely difficult to find!
Three days ago, the Jinyiwei who were following Lu Yuan's convoy were still trapped in the maze and had not come out yet.

The Jinyiwei in the maze seemed to be following Lu Yuan's convoy, but in fact they had been circling at the three-way intersection for several days.

After hearing this, Lu Yuan released his internal energy, and within a radius of one kilometer, two powerful people indeed appeared.

Lu Yuan flew away through the window, and Su Liyan followed closely behind him and jumped out of the window.

"You guys have to be careful!" Zhao Qiaoer, Song Meiqin, and Gu Ziyue shouted in unison.

Before he finished speaking, Lu Yuan and Su Liyan had already flown far away.

Xiaoqian, who was in the next room, saw Lu Yuan and Su Liyan heading south, and also climbed out through the window.

When Su Changliang saw his wife following him out, he stepped one foot out of the window and then shrank back.

Su Changliang pointed his right index finger upwards, shook it and said, "Gentleman, how can you climb through the window? Go through the main door!"

Su Changliang held up the edge of his trousers with both hands and walked down the stairs to the second floor.

Su Liyan's mother also noticed something was wrong, and stopped Su Changliang at the stairs on the first floor and asked, "Son, what's going on?"

Su Changliang was very anxious. If he didn't catch up, he would be lost.

Su Changliang walked around his mother and said, "Mom, wait here and look after our father and the brothers-in-law and their wives. Let's go and take a look!"

Su Changliang followed after he finished speaking.

Su Liyan looked around. The hall was full of palace guards, but there were already seven or eight great Taoist priests. Why would she be needed for protection?

There was an old man next to the little girl.

The dashing little girl asked, "Master, my skills are still not good enough. The branches are all broken."

The little girl's stretching technique is very advanced, but she hasn't yet reached the optimal level.

If one practices to the highest level, even if one holds a branch in one's hand, it will not break due to being unable to withstand the strong internal force.

Therefore, people with great martial arts skills never rely on the weapons in their hands.

On the contrary, those who are only half full and have nothing to lose, dare not be arrogant without a "Yitian Sword" or "Dragon Slaying Sword" in their hands.

The old man had a kind face, stroked his little daughter's head, and said, "Don't be impatient, you are still young, and to have reached this level, you are already our most outstanding disciple."

The old man didn't dare praise the little girl too much, for fear that she would become too proud.

The old man came up late and had no idea that the little girl had broken the psychedelic array in the distance.

While the two were talking, Lu Yuan and others came galloping from a distance.

The old man looked into the distance, noticed Lu Yuan's presence, and said, "Ruyan, your parents are here."

The little girl also sensed it and clapped her hands excitedly.

Lu Yuan took a few leaps and appeared in the sight of the two.

"Daughter!" Lu Yuan shouted.

"Daddy!" Lu Ruyan jumped up and rushed over.

Although they hadn't seen each other for two years, Lu Ruyan recognized her father at first sight.

On the contrary, Lu Yuan was a little hesitant to recognize him.

If it weren't for the icy aura that Lu Ruyan brought to the inn, how could Lu Yuan dare to recognize her?
I haven't seen my eldest daughter for two or three years, and she has grown so tall.

Lu Ruyan threw herself directly into Lu Yuan's arms, like a cannonball hitting Lu Yuan.

The powerful impact forced Lu Yuan to take three or four steps back before he could steady himself.

If it were an ordinary person, he would have been smashed to pieces by Lu Ruyan.

Lu Ruyan still doesn't have a clear understanding of her own strength.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to break the psychedelic formation jointly set up by Su Liyan and Xiaoqian by relying on brute force.

Lu Ruyan was like a coquettish little wild cat, burrowing around in Lu Yuan's arms.

The father and son are very close.

Su Liyan, Xiaoqian and Su Changliang arrived one after another.

Lu Ruyan's little mouth was so sweet that she hurriedly called out, "Mom, aunt, uncle, you're all here! I missed you so much!"

Su Liyan pinched Lu Ruyan's little face and said:
"You naughty little fellow, you even broke my mother's magic circle."

Lu Ruyan looked innocent and said, "I don't know anything!"

The old man next to him was Taoist Quan Yi.

Lu Yuan looked at Taoist Master Quanyi and his expression immediately turned cold. He handed his daughter in his arms to his wife.

Lu Yuan asked, "Master, we agreed to bring Ruyan to visit my parents every once in a while. It seems you broke your promise."

Taoist Priest Quan Yi laughed and patted his forehead, saying, "Alas, I am old now and my brain cannot remember things well. I am really embarrassed."

Lu Yuan really believed his lies, and his daughter was by his side every day.

Taoist Quanyi looks at Lu Ruyan every day, how can he forget about this matter?
To put it bluntly, Taoist Master Quan was afraid that once Lu Ruyan returned to her parents, she would no longer want to practice with him.

"In that case, daughter, come home with us. Let's go!" (End of this chapter)
