Cheng Guang remained by the side, his handsome face revealing a faint smile.

Smiling without speaking.

His gaze meaningfully fell upon Cheng Zhihai.

Under such a gaze from Cheng Guang, Cheng Zhihai’s face reddened slightly once more, and after coughing, just as he was about to say something to Cheng Guang, his eyes caught sight of Ning Qianxue.

Upon seeing Ning Qianxue’s appearance.

...

Cheng Zhihai instinctively paused.

A few strands of unfamiliarity appeared in his eyes.

“This is…”

“Qianxue?”

Cheng Zhihai looked toward Ning Qianxue, tentatively opening his mouth to inquire.

The current Ning Qianxue seemed exceptionally unfamiliar to Cheng Zhihai.

Even though he already knew that the girl before him was Ning Qianxue, Cheng Zhihai still appeared somewhat disbelieving.

Seeing Cheng Zhihai in such a state, Cheng Guang could also understand.

Primarily because after Ning Qianxue’s awakening of her past life memories, her appearance and temperament had changed somewhat.

Her appearance was still acceptable.

Ning Qianxue was already very beautiful originally.

It was mainly her temperament.

Ning Qianxue’s original temperament was that of a silly, sweet girl.

Now, her temperament was completely different from the silly, sweet one.

With just one glance, one could feel the cool and ethereal temperament of a fairy radiating from Ning Qianxue.

It was as if Ning Qianxue was not a person from this world, but rather a noble fairy who had accidentally descended to the mortal realm from the ninth heaven.

Under Cheng Zhihai’s watchful gaze, Ning Qianxue’s red lips were slightly pursed, her mouth revealing a trace of a graceful smile, and then she gently nodded her head.

“It’s me, Father.”

As Ning Qianxue’s voice fell.

Even though Ning Qianxue had acknowledged her identity.

Cheng Zhihai still couldn’t help but widen his lips, staring incredulously for a moment, before slowly bringing his jaw together.

He managed to close his mouth, which had opened wide from shock.

“Uh, Qianxue, you’ve had quite a change in temperament lately; I almost didn’t recognize you.”

Cheng Zhihai commented, as Ning Qianxue’s state left him a bit confused, temporarily causing him to forget the reason he had come to find Cheng Guang.

After a moment, he recalled.

Cheng Zhihai moved his gaze away from Ning Qianxue and onto Cheng Guang.

“Right, Guanger.”

“After you return this time, don’t leave again.”

Cheng Zhihai said to Cheng Guang with a stern face.

Hearing Cheng Zhihai’s words, Cheng Guang’s face showed confusion, “What’s wrong?”

“Has something happened?”

Cheng Guang knew that Cheng Zhihai wouldn’t say such things for no reason; something must have happened.

Cheng Guang thought about the Primordial Spirits of the Sky-Men who had surveilled him upon his previous return.

Was it because of those Sky-Men?

Cheng Guang couldn’t help but think so.

Cheng Guang felt that Cheng Zhihai suddenly telling him not to leave was most likely related to the Sky-Men within the Capital city, but he did not say it outright.

He quietly waited for Cheng Zhihai’s explanation.

Cheng Zhihai sighed, “Recently, there’s been some chaos in the Great Zhou Capital; actually, there’s not a single place in the entire Great Zhou that isn’t in disorder.”

“The south has seen a great disaster, with refugees overflowing and countless people dying.”

“Then, many aristocratic families and the power of the Sects, seeing that the Great Zhou Emperor is already gone and a new ruler has not yet been established, have found the authority of local governments waning to various degrees.”

“Uprisings are appearing everywhere.”

“Even with the Bureau of the Lamp’s forces suppressing them, they simply cannot contain it all.”

Cheng Guang listened to Cheng Zhihai, his brow involuntarily furrowing.

“A great disaster?”

“Uprisings?”

“Is it because of these that the surroundings of the Capital city are also unrestful?”

Although Cheng Guang did not know what the great disaster Cheng Zhihai referred to was, he was aware that even a slight disturbance in this world could constitute a major disaster for ordinary people.

Even if two armies clashed or Cultivators fought against an enemy, once the common mortals were affected,

They would have no power to resist.

Cheng Zhihai first nodded, then shook his head, “These are just the beginning.”

“The main issue is that certain powers have now set their sights on the Capital city and the Great Zhou Imperial Family.”

“Moreover, around the Capital city, many forces from the Great Tang Chang’an City seem to want to coerce the Great Zhou Imperial Family into organizing strong fighters to attack the Great Tang Chang’an City, then take advantage of the situation to reap benefits.”

“If the Great Zhou Imperial Family agrees to their proposal, those forces won’t do anything to the imperial family.”

“But if the Imperial Family doesn’t agree, they won’t be so scrupulous.”
