Chaotic World Book-Chapter 479 - 466 Again in the Worldly Society

These past few days, it wasn’t only Zhao Changhe who felt he couldn’t lift a finger, Yue Hongling also felt quite embarrassed.

Zhao Changhe was slightly better off. Despite feeling he couldn’t intervene, he still helped organize martial artists, playing a role in recruiting and building the team for the newly established Spirit Clan, which aligned well with his duty as a protector with formidable martial strength.

He also knew how to delegate tasks to search for Wuding, organize groups to maintain public order, and patrol the city defenses, among other things, and he even proposed urban planning and drainage plans for the new town of Taoyuan, contributing significantly to its establishment.

Being a former Village Chief, he did have some method to his work. Besides, he had seen enough of such construction and management tasks in both Xiangyang and Huiji, and Tang Wanzhuang had even tried to teach him...

However, he hadn’t learned much; the knowledge from the modern era played a larger role in his actions... Unexpectedly, he had now become the most capable one in the Spirit Clan, aside from Sisi.

Once the Lady of the Village, Yue Hongling, was the one who realized she knew nothing. The most she did was serve as an instructor and personally lead teams to maintain public order. If Zhao Changhe was in charge of organizing and managing, she was the arrest officer, the one who carried out the tasks.

Originally slightly resistant, full of energy and believing she could do more, she compared herself to the overwhelming number of tasks Sisi managed, which made people’s heads spin. Yue Hongling immediately lost any interest in trying and diligently went to maintain public order.

Who would have thought? Sisi, who seemed only capable of selling kebabs, was actually pretty competent... After all, she was a Holy Daughter who led her clan from the Secret Realm to establish roots outside; although she didn’t bring many people, the establishment of this new power seemed rehearsed, accumulating a wealth of experience.

Most of the worldly people talk big, but in reality, they couldn’t manage even ten people... This was also why Aristocratic Families held significant importance in Worldly Society; the talents produced by their clans are difficult to replace in ancient society.

Fortunately, this trip to find Wuding allowed Yue Hongling to find her sense of purpose, and her complexion improved considerably.

Everyone has their strengths!

"Frankly, meeting this time and seeing how you operate, I’ve been quite moved," Yue Hongling said with a sigh as they traveled towards the Snow Mountain. "I feel my horizons have broadened... It might even benefit my Sword Dao."

"A few days ago, I saw you holding back and not saying anything... You seemed a bit absent-minded, and I was afraid you might be questioning or wavering in your Sword Dao, though it didn’t seem likely?"

"Pfft, how could I easily waver in my own Dao?" Yue Hongling flipped her ponytail, brimming with energy. "Who would waver over such a thing? Everyone is performing acts of chivalry, how can one way be better and another not needed? Where’s the sense in that? Even a small town needs division of labor."

"Ha... I’m glad it’s nothing," Zhao Changhe laughed. "What were you sulking about earlier then?"

"She can do it, and I thought I should be able to as well. Turns out, I can’t, but she can’t do what I’m doing now either. Does she have the nerve to confront Wuding directly? With her slight skills, she’d be flattened by a slap..."

Zhao Changhe couldn’t help but laugh aloud, "You can do many things she can’t, like last night’s positions."

"Ptui!" Yue Hongling’s face turned slightly red.

Having spent more time together recently, and living a nine-to-five life in the town, they had grown very close as a couple. Once some things started, they couldn’t be stopped. Since trying new positions last time, he had been cajoled into exploring even more recently. Her flexible waist from her martial arts made for many exciting experiences, which he found very satisfying.

Sometimes Yue Hongling even forgot what she used to be like... She felt that the way Sisi looked at her now wasn’t much different from how she looked at Sisi; both were like looking at something trivial.

Yue Hongling didn’t want to respond to his teasing; her thoughts were more occupied by when she might run away again. This life of working and sleeping together by his side had her somewhat frightened.

She was afraid she might get used to it and never want to leave.

As Zhao Changhe was saying, "It’s strange, what are you comparing with Sisi day by day?"

"How am I comparing with her? Whoever compares with her has no shame. Sitting there eating, yet sneakily stretching her feet towards you under the table, her toes curling playfully. Are her toes playful and cute for anyone to see? Regardless of whether we are married, in front of her I am your wife; does she think I have no pride?"

"..."

Yue Hongling stubbornly said, "Besides, a true swordsman faced with such stimulation only checks whether it helps break through their own Sword Intent. Maybe I could even break through to the Second Layer Secret Treasure. This is an epiphany on my path, what does it have to do with Simeng?"

Zhao Changhe didn’t expose her, since she probably did have a realization, "What did you realize? Teach me."

"Yes, my Sword Intent has become broader and more worldly."

"I understand broader, expanding from a small perspective. What do you mean by worldly?"

Yue Hongling, wielding her riding crop, pointed towards the dawn at the horizon, "Once my mind was fixed on the Worldly Society. Sunsets over rivers, the yellow sands of the grasslands. Now, I have come to a greater understanding, the vastness of the common people, the smoke of a thousand households. Isn’t that moving from the Worldly Society to the mundane world?"

She turned to look at Zhao Changhe, who was riding with her, and smiled, "The intent is reached... The Sword Emperor Techniques you taught me were also very helpful. Once the body’s cultivation and physical strength improve, it will be time for Yue Hongling’s Second Layer Secret Treasure. Little brother, you’re still behind, slowly catching up..."

"Onwards!" The heroine spurred her horse, heading straight for the distant Snow Mountains.

Zhao Changhe followed behind, looking at the flying ponytail in front of him, feeling tender-hearted.

Whether or not he could catch up to her strength didn’t seem too important.

Everyone rode side by side in this Worldly Society, always chasing that original intent, that red garment forever unchanged.

...

Yue Hongling felt she had touched the Second Layer Secret Treasure, whereas Zhao Changhe still felt he was quite far off, but compared to his previous complete confusion, now he almost sees the direction of the door.

Yue Hongling’s Sword Dao had made a leap in progress, and so had Zhao Changhe.

Playing as Wang Daozhong and the old man, the swordsmanship they used was different, the scenes they faced were different. They had never played with the knife as much as they did now, and in addition, practicing swords daily and dual cultivating with Yue Hongling, practicing by day, had caused exponential growth in their understanding and insight into the sword.

Now Zhao Changhe felt his swordsmanship had almost integrated fully, and even if he went to the Central Plains and claimed to be a swordsman, no one could deny it.

Practicing swordsmanship was to break through the bottleneck of the saber technique; as Yue Hongling felt her Sword Intent become broader, she touched the door of the Second Layer Secret Treasure, and Zhao Changhe also felt if he could break through the bottleneck of his saber technique, then the insight needed for the Second Layer Secret Treasure was right in front of him.

The comprehension and insight into Martial Arts were in place; what followed was filling in the body’s cultivation: fixing the lagging, poor meridians, and the cultivation of the Blood Shura Body using Razor Grass and Jun Heaven Blood Jade. Once these were complete, it should be time for the Second Layer Secret Treasure.

Having a clear path felt good, being able to head towards the goal no matter how distant it was, didn’t matter.

This time, the two had not disguised themselves, returning to their original bodies, Zhao Changhe carrying the joyous Dragon Sparrow.

Troubling the Sword Pavilion was unrelated to the spirit clan; it was a challenge among the Martial Artists of the Central Plains.

It was unknown what battles would arise from this... Hoping that the Ba Mountain Sword House could affirm the Sword Dao he had achieved these days, converging it within the saber technique, allowing Dragon Sparrow to soar through the Nine Heavens.

In the distance, the outline of the mountain range was faintly visible, undulating like a dragon, the main peak lofty and solitary, like a sword itself.

Looking up, the mountain top was shrouded in clouds and fog, unclear.

Even though it was summertime, the closer to the mountains, the colder it felt.

It was also unknown if there was still snow on the Snow Mountains in summer... In any case, Zhao Changhe could already see the Sword Qi, swirling around the mountains, colder than the snow.

"Whoa!" The two simultaneously reined in their horses, hiding them in the dense woods not far from the mountain, circumventing the mountain’s clear lake, almost in sync as they each leapt, entering the mountain simultaneously.

If the previous days were from Worldly Society to the mundane world, then at this moment, they re-entered the Worldly Society.
