Compared to ordinary people, she’d surely prefer the current days.

But... her husband’s thoughts... she can’t understand, just can’t understand at all.

"Alright, if you don’t get it, it’s fine!"

Chen Xuan dotingly patted her head.

He had a different feeling towards Lan Meng’Er too, reminiscent of the Western Border in his former life, making him feel at ease.

There was a unique kind of affection.

"Oh!"

Lan Meng’Er pouted slightly, if Chen Xuan didn’t say, she wouldn’t ask. In her heart, as long as she could be by his side and watch Xiaoqi grow up, it was enough.

As for anything else, she didn’t want to think about it.

Dinner!

Xiaoqi was undoubtedly the happiest.

After all, Lan Meng’Er was his biological mother. Having not seen each other for so many days, of course there was longing.

Lan Meng’Er felt the same way.

She kept serving him food, asking about how he had been recently, especially about his cultivation progress.

Upon learning that he had reached late-stage Immortal Grade, and was even close to the Profound Realm, she couldn’t be happier.

After all, he was still a child, too young.

Even Chen Xuan praised him a few times today, noting that he had been diligently cultivating over these days. Seeing his progress, it was estimated he could achieve a Realm Breakthrough to the Profound Realm within a fortnight.

At this pace, he should be able to cultivate to the Dao Realm within five years.

As for anything beyond that, Chen Xuan couldn’t estimate.

Because cultivation beyond the Dao Realm was incredibly challenging for each level.

Even geniuses might remain stuck at the first level of the Dao Realm their whole lives.

Of course, all this was but his estimation, specific circumstances would depend on realities. Yet, considering Xiaoqi’s Spirit Body, Chen Xuan was filled with confidence.

Night!

Absence makes the heart grow fonder; for Lan Meng’Er, this was certainly the case.

Being late-stage Immortal Grade, her combat ability had slightly increased.

However, she was still too weak.

Afterwards, she became a spectator!

"Sister Xian is amazing...." 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

"Sister Gu is too!"

"But Sister Xin is the best."

This naturally stirred dissatisfaction among them.

And so... after it was over, Lan Meng’Er was in for it.

"Nice!"

It was still a battle among women, Chen Xuan nodded frequently.

...

More than half a month later.

In the great hall, Tang Gu lay sprawled on the ground.

Gazing at the ceiling of the hall.

"Hahaha....."

Suddenly burst into crazy laughter, finally, he had completely unraveled it.

After a long while!

He abruptly sat up.

"Young lad, come to me."

He transmitted a message directly.

In his room, Chen Xuan forcibly halted his cultivation and suddenly opened his eyes.

"Finished?!"

Listening to Tang Gu’s earlier voice, it was filled with excitement.

Stepping out instantly, in the next moment, he appeared directly in the great hall.

"Finished?"

"Finished!"

A question and an answer.

"Good, good, good!" Chen Xuan became instantly excited.

With the unraveling, once the Array was set, he could begin searching for the Human Realm’s coordinates.

"Once I recover fully, I can refine the Array, then you can take it with you, allowing free entry to the Library Pavilion without anyone noticing!"

Tang Gu spoke with extreme enthusiasm.

Or perhaps with pride.

To know that this Array was set up by several Dao-tier experts from Great Yu, but now it was unraveled by him, a mere Profound-tier individual.

Of course, he was thrilled.

This sufficiently demonstrated how high his talent was in Arrays... Tang Gu.

"I’ll leave it to you then, Elder Tang."

Chen Xuan nodded slightly to him.

"Trivial matter!"

...

This time, it took three days for Tang Gu to completely restore to his peak state.

Then, he began to work on refining the Array.

At this time, Chen Xuan was also seated aside.

It wasn’t that he didn’t trust him, but he wanted to seize this opportunity to study well beside him.

"This Array was seen by me in an ancient text, called Shattering Void Illusion Array, which can penetrate arrays, conceal auras, but the key is the Black-winged Simurgh’s blood essence."

"According to the text, the Black-winged Simurgh’s blood essence can traverse spaces."

Tang Gu began explaining to Chen Xuan while refining materials.

"I see."

Chen Xuan nodded, knowing the Black-winged Simurgh’s flight involved space folding.

Later, Tang Gu’s hands emitted a gentle silver glow, strands of Spiritual Power appeared at his fingertips.

His hands continually danced, each rune drifting into the air.

After half an hour, the entire great hall was filled with various runes, flickering.

Chen Xuan glanced upward slightly, nearly ten thousand runes were present.

At this moment, Tang Gu halted as well.

Looking at Chen Xuan, seeing some confusion on his face, he promptly asked, "Is it a bit odd, why not refine those materials first?"

"Yes!"

Chen Xuan nodded, although he wasn’t an Array Master.

But he knew generally, materials were refined first before runes were inscribed onto them.

Yet this time... it wasn’t.

"It’s very simple, because those materials are refined by runes!"

With this, he waved his hand, and dozens of boxes on the ground opened simultaneously, with all materials flying into the air instantly.

The next moment, under Tang Gu’s manipulation of Spiritual Power, the great hall’s runes attached to these materials.

At that moment, the runes seemed like living creatures, directly devouring the materials one by one.

"What peculiar runes!"

Watching this scene, Chen Xuan’s hair stood on end.

He’d never seen runes that directly devoured.

After a brief moment!

All materials were completely devoured by the runes.

"Burp..."

Chen Xuan even heard something akin to a belch.

And the runes that had devoured flashed with a brighter glow than before.

At this moment, Tang Gu took out a drop of Black-winged Simurgh’s blood essence and cast it into the air.
