"Yes, Mother!" Wang Dongxue responded.
"Why did you suddenly co over?" her mother-in-law asked. "Is it because Eldest Brother woke up?"
"Yes!" Wang Dongxue confird. "As Second Brother said, my husband really did fall asleep. He was pulled into Suisui’s Dream Realm!"
"That’s good news," Lady Ji remarked. "It ans that she successfully passed the First Level."
"Not just the First Level," Wang Dongxue added, "she also successfully passed the Second Level. Rest assured, Mother!"
Lady Ji remained silent, still looking up at the sky.
"Mother!" Wang Dongxue said. "My husband asked to relay a ssage to you!"
Lady Ji, still looking at the sky without turning her head, asked, "What is it?"
"My husband said that it is now confird that Father is still alive."
Upon hearing this, Lady Ji’s tense body suddenly relaxed, and she took a deep breath. "That’s great! After all these years, this is the best news I’ve ever heard!"
Lady Ji turned around, walked to the stone table, sat down, and suddenly frowned, saying, "Did Eldest Brother tell you anything else?"
Wang Dongxue unconsciously touched her round belly and said, "Mother, you know my husband best. He did indeed have more to tell ."
"What did he say?"
"My husband said that since Father is not in the sa Realm, Suisui could not pull him into her Dream Realm. This ans we cannot et him!"
"So that’s how it is," Lady Ji murmured, her face lighting up with an anticipatory smile. "This was to be expected."
That smile baffled Wang Dongxue; she felt that her mother-in-law seed to have suddenly beco more than a decade younger!
「Outside the Conference Hall on Lingxiao Mountain, Profound Celestial Continent」
Ji Shang, who was in a battle with Third City Lord Song, sneezed powerfully and felt slightly drowsy.
"i Ji! Did you notice anything strange about Little Seventh today?" Venerable Heming asked, his eyebrows tightly knitted as he addressed his eldest disciple beside him.
i Ji furrowed her brows and said, "It’s not just today that Little Junior Brother has been off! He’s been acting strangely for the past few days. He started sneezing a few days ago. I heard he only got a little better yesterday, but look at him now. Not only is he sneezing, but he’s also dozing off!"
For a person with established Cultivation, sleep isn’t a priority. Although they also want to sleep soundly and enjoy life when relaxed, soone unable to resist the urge to sleep even in the Conference Hall would be considered abnormal. Could there be sothing wrong with his Cultivation?
This thought occurred not only to i Ji but also to Venerable Heming, and even to people from other forces! They all stared at Ji Shang, who was yawning greatly and staggering.
"The Seventh Elder of Lingxiao Mountain, Ji Shang, known for his continuous cultivation in seclusion for many years, doesn’t seem to be what he’s made out to be after all!" Elder Wu Fan of Shengtian City muttered thoughtfully.
The people beside him withdrew their gaze from Ji Shang and asked, "Elder, did you see anything?"
Wu Fan’s lips curved slightly. He chuckled and said, "Rumor has it that Ji Shang is already on the verge of becoming a Venerable! Have you ever seen anyone with accomplished Cultivation who can’t even control their drowsiness?"
These words from Wu Fan imdiately reminded everyone present that there was a significant problem with Ji Shang’s Cultivation.
"In this case, it seems our trip to Lingxiao Mountain is highly likely to allow us to take a dominant position. At that ti, we will be able to acquire an extra share on top of the original conditions!"
Joy rose on the faces of those present. They were determined to gain control of Lingxiao Mountain.
While everyone was thinking this, their eyes were fixed on the Battlefield where Ji Shang and Third City Lord Song were fighting.
At this mont, Third City Lord Song had lost all reason. The handkerchief, transford into i Ji under Ji Shang’s control, was coquettishly calling, "Darling Song, Darling Song..."
Seeing this, Third City Lord Song was overjoyed. He embraced the figure and imdiately kissed the fake Third City Lord Song.
After kissing, he unconsciously touched his mouth, flicked his tongue, and muttered, "Strange, why do I taste sothing salty, sticky, and slightly disgusting!"
As soon as Third City Lord Song said this, the expressions of those observing the battle changed. They all pointed and exclaid, "Ji Shang! You actually poisoned Third City Lord Song!"
Ji Shang ignored them and continued to weave Third City Lord Song’s Illusory Realm!
i Ji, however, couldn’t help but burst into laughter. Others couldn’t see it, but she knew very well. Poison him? How could Ji Shang be poisoning him! He had clearly shoved his snot-stained handkerchief into Third City Lord Song’s mouth!
"You rascals! So mischievous," Venerable Heming said, helplessly tapping i Ji’s little head. He stroked his beard, sighed, and shook his head.
"Master! It’s not like we actively bullied him," i Ji retorted. "He brought it upon himself. Doesn’t he take a look at himself? What abilities does he even have? A toad lusting after swan at! Ptooey!"
"Elder i Ji, please watch your words!" Elder Wu Fan of Shengtian City, furious at hearing i Ji call their City Lord a toad, imdiately retorted. "Our Third City Lord is handso, talented, and has accomplished Cultivation. In what way is he not a match for you?"
i Ji cackled, not replying with a single word, but pointed to where Ji Shang and Third City Lord Song were fighting in front of the Conference Hall. "Fellow Daoist Wu, you claim I humiliate Shengtian City? Then take a good look! Who exactly is it today that has thrown Shengtian City’s face on the ground for us to trample on? HAHAHA!"
As i Ji’s laughter echoed, all eyes naturally turned to the Battlefield. Suddenly, everyone’s expression changed drastically. They all quickly covered their eyes, their faces flushed and hot.
Those with more delicate sensibilities even cried out in alarm, "My heavens! A scene like this is utterly mortifying! Third City Lord Song is actually... actually so..."
