Chapter 440 He’s no longer alone.

“Husband!”

As Si Kong Changfeng returned to the Manor, The Women surrounded him. Behind them were Yang Guo and the others, and even Zhang Sanfeng was present.

Si Kong Changfeng looked at the faces filled with concern, and the gloom caused by past memories completely dissipated, replaced by overwhelming warmth.

He was truly no longer alone!

“I apologize for making everyone worry.”

Si Kong Changfeng said gratefully.

He once envied Guo Jing, envying that he had elders like The Beggar Hero and Pharmacist Huang protecting him, and Huang Rong leading the entire Beggars Sect to help him defend the city. At that time, he only had Ning Zhongze and Little Dragon Girl by his side.

But now, he had Zhang Sanfeng presiding over Xue Luo Manor as an elder, over twenty wives, and quite a few brothers and disciples.

Everyone was striving together in this new world, protecting the current Xue Luo Manor.

Seeing that Si Kong Changfeng truly had no issues, everyone finally relaxed. Si Kong Changfeng was their backbone, their spiritual pillar. If anything happened to him, they wouldn’t know what to do.

“This Young Friend has an open mind and naturally won’t have any issues. You all should trust your Young Master!”

Zhang Sanfeng stroked his beard and then turned to leave with a chuckle.

Everyone knew that although Zhang Sanfeng said this, he was actually very worried about Si Kong Changfeng. However, no one exposed it at that moment.

“The Immortal Master speaks the truth. Let’s go, let’s go. We should continue our cultivation practice. We don’t even know what kind of enemies will come next.”

Xiao Feng patted Yang Guo’s shoulder and said to Yang Guo and the others.

Yang Guo and Little Fish were naturally the most worried about their Master. But since Zhang Sanfeng and Xiao Feng had already said this, and seeing that Si Kong Changfeng was indeed fine, they followed Xiao Feng away.

Once Xiao Feng and the others left, A Fei, Li Xunhuan, Wan Chunliu, Yan Nantian, Lu Xiaofeng, Xi Men Chui Xue, Ye Gucheng, Chu Liuxiang, and Hua Manlou also left.

Only Si Kong Changfeng’s Women remained.

“I’m sorry for making you worry.”

Si Kong Changfeng hugged each of them and spoke softly.

Seeing that he was truly fine, The Women finally let their hearts rest completely.

Afterward, Si Kong Changfeng took The Women back to the Small World and immediately entered secluded cultivation, consuming the Dragon Essence.

Three days later, everyone’s Realm had seen a significant improvement.

Si Kong Changfeng reached the Peak of the Spirit Travel Realm, and then, using the Enlightenment Pill, blood bodhi, and various upgraded Medicinal Pills, he went into seclusion for another three days, directly entering the Immortal Realm.

Li Hanyi was in the Late Stage of the Spirit Travel Realm. Wu Xingyun, Yao Yue, Dongfang Bai, Little Dragon Girl, Wang Yuyan, and Yin Luoxia were all in the Early Stage of the Spirit Travel Realm.

Ning Zhongze, Huang Rong, Li Mochou, Lian Xing, Murong Qiudi, and Ye Ruoyi were at the Half-Step Spirit Travel Realm.

Li Qingluo, Dao Baifeng, Jiang Yuyan, Qin Hongmian, and Zhang Sanniang were in the Great Freedom Realm.

A Zhu, A Bi, Gan Baobao, Mu Wanqing, Zhong Ling, Lin Shiyin, Dai Qisi, and Min Rou were in the Nine Heavens Realm.

The Immortal Realm should be the Peak of the Shao Ge World, but this was a comprehensive high-level world. Si Kong Changfeng didn’t dare claim to be the ultimate fighting power yet, as he felt he could still ascend further.

Yin Luoxia felt for the first time why Li Hanyi’s cultivation had grown so rapidly. Others cultivated diligently but couldn’t achieve their current Realms, whereas they could advance simply by being with Si Kong Changfeng.

Moreover, Si Kong Changfeng possessed too many good things!

While sighing, she also felt fortunate that she had now also stepped into the Spirit Travel Realm! Even Si Kong Changfeng might not be her match now!

Only after Si Kong Changfeng emerged from seclusion did everyone leave the Small World again.

However, when they came out, they discovered that Xue Luo Manor was heavily guarded by soldiers.

Although with their current cultivation levels, any number of soldiers would be useless, the fact that Xue Luo Manor was surrounded by heavy troops indicated that the situation was not simple.

Si Kong Changfeng swept his Divine Sense across Xue Luo Manor and found that everything was normal inside, except for two additional people.

All the soldiers were only outside the Manor; none had entered.

Zhang Sanfeng was still leisurely teaching several children martial arts, Pharmacist Huang was guarding the children nearby, along with the four women of Plum, Orchid, Bamboo, Chrysanthemum. As for Yang Guo and the others, they were all cultivating separately and were not affected by the soldiers outside.

After Si Kong Changfeng and the others emerged, they did not deliberately conceal their auras, so Zhang Sanfeng and the others were aware of it.

The Women were also puzzled by the soldiers outside the Manor after coming out.

“Huh? Father?”

Ye Ruoyi suddenly exclaimed in surprise. She had recognized the two new people inside the Manor as her father, Ye Xiaoying, and his attendant.

It was precisely Ye Ruoyi’s exclamation that explained the presence of the soldiers outside the Manor.

Ye Xiaoying was the Great General of the North Li Central Army, so having so many soldiers was not strange. The only question was whether he had come to Xue Luo Manor to see Ye Ruoyi or under imperial orders.

“Husband, that’s my father. He shouldn’t mean any harm.”

Ye Ruoyi told Si Kong Changfeng. The reason she said this was that besides being her father, Ye Xiaoying was the Great General of North Li, but with her present, she believed her father would not move against Xue Luo Manor.

Si Kong Changfeng nodded. “I will accompany you to meet him.”

After all, he was her father-in-law. Coming with heavy troops, his purpose was likely not simple.

Ye Ruoyi looked at Si Kong Changfeng gratefully. “Thank you, Husband!”

Although she had followed Si Kong Changfeng for a long time, she had never brought him to meet her father.

In fact, she was somewhat impatient to introduce Si Kong Changfeng to her father, to tell her father that she was doing very well now—not only was her illness cured, but her cultivation had greatly increased, reaching the Great Freedom Realm! Most importantly, she was very happy now.

“Silly girl!”

Si Kong Changfeng stroked Ye Ruoyi’s head, then told The Women to rest individually while he took Ye Ruoyi to the courtyard where Ye Xiaoying was.

“Father!”

As soon as Ye Ruoyi entered the courtyard, she ran towards Ye Xiaoying and threw herself straight into his arms.

“Oh my, my precious daughter, don’t get too excited, your health is fragile!”

Ye Xiaoying caught Ye Ruoyi, speaking with great affection and worry.

Although Ye Ruoyi had written to tell him that her health had completely recovered, he didn’t entirely believe it.

Ye Ruoyi had suffered from congenital heart deficiency since childhood. He didn’t know how many people he had found or how many methods he had tried, but in the end, he could only send her to Xueyue City to recuperate. Therefore, he was reluctant to believe Ye Ruoyi was healed, thinking it was merely a lie fabricated so as not to worry him.

Now seeing Ye Ruoyi, his concern for her health naturally came first.

“Father, my health recovered long ago. If you don’t believe me, look.”

Ye Ruoyi turned out of Ye Xiaoying’s embrace and held out her hand in front of him, allowing Ye Xiaoying to check it himself.

Ye Xiaoying tentatively placed his fingers on his daughter’s pulse. The moment his fingertips made contact, his entire body froze.

The pulse was steady and powerful, flowing with a vigorous inner strength, absolutely unlike the condition of congenital heart deficiency that required careful nurturing in the past. Instead, it faintly possessed the aura of the Great Freedom Realm.

He suddenly looked up at Ye Ruoyi, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief. His lips moved several times before he asked in a trembling voice, “Ruoyi… your health… is it really completely recovered? How… how did you manage this?”
