That night.
The moonlight scattered over the snow, making the night as bright as day, even the shadows of the walls were bathed in moonlight as white as snow.
Suddenly, a figure abruptly appeared outside the surrounding wall.
The shadow fell obliquely on the wall under the illumination of moonlight.
On the steps of the main entrance dozens of feet away, a plaque was prominently hung.
Three large characters were engraved on the plaque.
Commandery Governor Mansion.
Jiang Ning glanced at the wall in front of him, moved his figure, and vanished from where he stood.
...
Commandery Governor Mansion.
Wang Qintan, dressed in a plain long-sleeved tunic and pants, bare feet on the wooden floor, approached the window.
She opened the window a little wider, allowing a slight chill to enter, but the charcoal fire inside was burning vigorously at that mont.
As she opened the window a bit more, the cold moonlight stread through the gap, casting a bright beam on the floor inside.
The moonlight refracted on the wooden floor, brightening the room slightly.
"Not here yet?" she murmured softly, looking at a corner outside the window.
"Why, did you miss ?" Jiang Ning’s voice suddenly sounded in her ear.
She turned around abruptly, her shiny black hair swaying, and saw Jiang Ning standing in her room.
At that mont, Jiang Ning was dressed in a white fitted outfit, his posture upright, long hair tied up with a white headband.
"How did you get in?" Wang Qintan looked at Jiang Ning, sowhat surprised.
"Just ca in like this!" Jiang Ning replied with a faint smile.
"Just ca in like this?" Wang Qintan murmured, glanced at Jiang Ning, then at the latched door, and finally at the window barely five feet wide, curiosity still filled her eyes.
"Your skills are becoming more and more incomprehensible to !" Wang Qintan suddenly exclaid.
Jiang Ning said, "I have to grow! If I don’t grow, relying on previous thods would not allow to protect anyone."
"In this current situation, do you have confidence for the future?" Wang Qintan asked.
"Fifty-fifty!" Jiang Ning reflected for less than a breath before speaking.
"So, you don’t have absolute confidence to get through this trial?" Wang Qintan slightly raised her chin, watching Jiang Ning’s eyes, trying to discern his true intentions.
Jiang Ning shook his head: "I dare not claim full confidence! The Cave Heaven Blessed Land stems from the previous era; the glories of that era, I now understand a lot! Its greatness is unfathomable!"
At this mont, images of the Daylight Venerable of Shangyang Cave Heaven, and the Nine Nether Tribulation Fire Grand Celestial, whom he once encountered, appeared in his mind; these were existences that could be called great.
They were existences he couldn’t comprehend at present.
The Cave Heaven Blessed Land, originates from that era.
It holds various remnants of the Ancient Era, profoundly deep, even he dared not claim to truly overco this ordeal.
At this mont.
Wang Qintan looked at Jiang Ning, and from his gaze realized he was genuine.
She imdiately nodded: "In that case, I want to bear your child!!"
The tone was firm, unequivocal, leaving no room for doubt.
"Bear a child?" Jiang Ning was taken aback, looking at Wang Qintan with surprise.
"The dangers you will face in the future, I can’t help you, nor do I have the ability to! If you truly die, I must leave behind at least a trace of your bloodline." Wang Qintan looked at Jiang Ning, her gaze firm, obviously having already thought it through.
Jiang Ning looked at Wang Qintan, their eyes t, and then he shook his head: "Getting to where I am now, leaving behind a bloodline and descendants is no longer a matter of overnight."
"It doesn’t matter!" Wang Qintan shook her head: "It’s worth a try, isn’t it? If you try, there’s a possibility; if you don’t, there’s no chance at all."
As she spoke, she untied her belt and then pulled open her collar.
The plain long robe slipped down her shoulders, falling directly to the ground.
Jiang Ning’s gaze was imdiately drawn to the charm of spring.
...
That night, clouds covered the moonlight.
...
The next day.
Jiang Ning opened his eyes, glanced at the slender hand resting on his chest, and then at the charcoal beside him.
After burning all night, the charcoal had long since extinguished.
A few snowflakes from outside drifted through the window gap, making the chill even more intense.
He gently moved the slender hand from his chest, then pulled the blanket higher, covering Wang Qintan’s shoulders.
After tucking it in, he carefully got out of bed, trying not to wake her.
Last night had been a night of fervor.
His physique was good, so it wasn’t much of an impact.
But he knew, Wang Qintan was very tired from the night’s effort with him.
Getting out of bed, he put on the clothes hanging next to him, piece by piece, until he was fully dressed.
Then, he glanced at Wang Qintan again, saw her breathing steadily, sleeping soundly, and only then felt at ease.
Subsequently, his figure moved, and without causing a ripple, he vanished from the room.
Monts after he left.
The steadily breathing Wang Qintan suddenly opened her eyes, looked at the empty spot beside her, still warm, then glanced in the direction Jiang Ning had just disappeared.
She then retracted her gaze, curled up her body, and snuggled into the covers.
...
"Young Master!!" Lv Yi loudly shoveled the snow accumulated on the road, looked up, and saw the figure of Jiang Ning appearing in front of her.
"Why up so early?" Jiang Ning asked.
"Young Master, wasn’t it snowing last night? If these snow aren’t shoveled away, soon the roads will be covered with snow, making it hard to walk!" Lv Yi replied.
"Why bother with such trouble!" Jiang Ning shook his head.
With a wave of his hand, an invisible wave of energy erupted.
In an instant, the scattered snow swept towards the sides of the road.
In just a breath, the entire road beca clean and tidy, with not a trace of snow accumulation left, not even a bit of moisture.
