The Calamity Cloud rolled thickly like ink, with silvery Thunderlight flickering faintly, resembling a thunder dragon weaving through the dark clouds.
The Divine Calamity suddenly descended, drawing everyone's attention as people in Qingyu Imperial City leaned out to look.
There stood Li Xiaonan, a smile on his lips, as if he were a celestial being hovering in the air.
Qing An gazed at his figure, unable to help but nod with a smile, murmuring to himself, "This is you! Though I don't like your arrogance, looking weak suits you even less! Li Xiaonan, I'm leaving. Take care!"
He slowly closed his eyes, a hint of crimson at his forehead flickering as if sensing something.
At that moment, Li Xiaonan's Divine Calamity also arrived. A bolt of silver-blue Tribulation Lightning struck down fiercely onto his Spirit Armor, producing a crackling sound.
Li Xiaonan tilted his head back and comfortably groaned, "Ah! That feels great! Bring it on!"
He casually withdrew his Spirit Armor and transformed into a white robe, fully immersing himself in the Tribulation Lightning.
With each bolt of Tribulation Lightning that fell, a tingling sensation coursed through every nerve; it was truly an exquisite feeling.
Flesh had returned!
This sensation was incredible! Becoming a deity was just around the corner!
Li Xiaonan smiled as he summoned the Carefree Fan, dispersing the remaining Calamity Cloud in the air.
A beam of golden light suddenly descended. Following its radiance, Li Xiaonan saw that the golden light enveloped someone—Qing An.
He clasped his hands together and smiled silently at Li Xiaonan, and in the blink of an eye, he vanished into a golden light.
Li Xiaonan couldn't help but furrow his brows slightly; he sensed that the door to another realm had opened, one that seemed like the Celestial Realm but was not quite it.
He slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, joined his hands in prayer, and silently murmured, "Qing An, take care!"
He glanced at the girls in the city, rubbed his hands together, and laughed, "Wives! Hubby is here!"
He dashed towards Ling Kui, who lowered her head and chuckled lightly. Suddenly, Yun Moyu punched Li Xiaonan in the chest.
At this moment, with his Divine Body fully developed, it felt as though her punch struck steel. Yun Moyu cried out in pain, "Ouch!" nearly collapsing to the ground.
Li Xiaonan, feeling sorry for her, quickly wrapped his arms around her and said, "Silly Girl, I know you're upset inside, but you can't take it out on your own body. I should be the one feeling sorry for you!"
Yun Moyu frowned but still stubbornly tapped his chest and said, "Why are you so hard!"
"Want to see if it's even harder below?" Li Xiaonan smirked and blew lightly into her ear, which was as smooth as jade.
Yun Moyu's body instantly softened and fell into Li Xiaonan's embrace.
Li Xiaonan chuckled foolishly a couple of times, raised his hand slightly, and summoned a clone. Who could compete for affection?
No girl could escape from his grasp, including Fisher's Song and Hong Lian.
Fisher's Song had changed into a new dress; her hair had been styled anew by Ling Kui. The scar on her left cheek had faded away, revealing her breathtaking beauty once more.
She looked down at Li Xiaonan and asked shyly, "Master, do you... want to play a game?"
"Foolish girl!" Li Xiaonan sighed lightly, pulling her into his embrace. "How can you follow me all this time without showing yourself? You are truly harsh on yourself."
Fisher's Song nuzzled against him with a smile. "I didn't want to disturb my master's life. There are so many outstanding women around you; I'm just a mere Demon Immortal, nothing special..."
"Shh... don't say that..." Li Xiaonan interrupted her, holding her quietly.
How could he not know that Fisher's Song had feelings for him? It was just that at the beginning, she was under the Azure Emperor, and he had his reservations, which made him cautious around her.
Now that the Azure Emperor was gone, if he didn't acknowledge the feelings of this extraordinary Demon Immortal, he would be less than human.
Hong Lian pouted, swaying slightly as she looked at Li Xiaonan. "Nameless, is this how you win over so many beautiful sisters?"
Li Xiaonan scratched his head awkwardly. "Hong Lian, just call me Li Xiaonan."
He couldn't help but feel frustrated; it was really hard to connect the current Hong Lian with the past Aries.
What was even more unfortunate was that he had been with Hong Lian, Obedient Dragon II.
Indeed, sometimes recovering memories wasn't a good thing.
"Names don't matter much, Li Xiaonan. What are your plans for the future?"
"First get married, then become a god. What about you, Hong Lian? Are you willing to stay?"
Hong Lian narrowed her eyes slightly and smiled faintly, looking as if she could see through the autumn waters. "I've already made up my mind to follow you. Besides, your Inner Demon hasn't been dealt with yet; I won't just leave you to fend for yourself."
Li Xiaonan nodded, about to speak when Hong Lian interrupted him. "But don't expect me to be as devoted as those sisters. I admit I once had some feelings for you, but your fickleness is really hard for me to bear..."
Li Xiaonan stood there, mouth agape, unable to utter a single word for a long while. Finally, he muttered to himself, "What the hell! This guy is just too... well, whatever. He doesn't remember anything, so why should I bother with him?"
He twitched the corners of his mouth at Hong Lian and then walked toward the toppled house.
The ground was littered with various items that had flown out of the Soul Ring!
He couldn't help but sigh. The Soul Ring had inexplicably merged with his body, and he had given the Seven-Level Pagoda to Qing An. Losing two Storage Artifacts in a row was truly a heavy loss!
Fortunately, he still had Brother Yun's bracelet!
He touched the Azure Jade Bracelet on his wrist and began to collect the scattered items on the ground into the bracelet. Suddenly, a yellow object caught his attention.
He flipped his hand, and it flew into his grasp.
This was something he had stumbled upon during the Celestial Buddha War, which he had carelessly tossed into the Soul Ring and forgotten about. Now that his ring had merged with him, this item had finally seen the light of day again.
It felt light in his hand, no different from an ordinary woven item made of rushes, wrapped in a piece of old yellow cloth.
Yet this seemingly ordinary object shone with brilliant light after Li Xiaonan recited a passage from a Sutra.
He exclaimed in shock, "What! Serenity! Buddhism's Fourth Treasure! Qing An! Qing An!"
Li Xiaonan clutched the item excitedly as he dashed out of the house, only to remember that Qing An had already ascended.
"Li Xiaonan, what's wrong?" Hong Lian asked when she saw him bursting out of the house with an excited expression, only to be met with disappointment as she noticed his sudden change in demeanor.
Li Xiaonan tucked away Serenity and sighed. "Looks like I need to make a trip to the Buddhist Realm to find Qing An!"
Mei Yingluo, Huang Yan, and Spirit Weapon arrived in the courtyard, gazing at the vibrant spring scenery and shaking their heads.
Mei Yingluo said, "Xiao Nan, the wedding date keeps getting postponed. Although these beautiful ladies are in the realm of immortals, if you keep dragging this out, who knows when they'll end up looking like old hags."
Li Xiaonan chuckled awkwardly and replied, "Mother, why are you teasing me? I think everything is almost ready for Little Year. How about I go to the Outer Academy today to invite my adoptive father, and tomorrow my wives and I can pay our respects to heaven and earth?"
"Good, good, good!" Mei Yingluo grabbed his hand, her eyes squinting with joy as she repeated the word "good" three times.
Huang Yan smiled and said, "I'll go back with you to take a look; it will be a farewell of sorts. My Heavenly Tribulation should be happening in the next few days."
Li Xiaonan nodded and addressed his clones, "Tomorrow is the wedding, so let's not do anything reckless today. Let the wives prepare themselves! Tomorrow in Qingyu City, we will hold the most lively and splendid wedding in the Starry Illusion Continent!"
"Understood!" all the clones waved in unison.
Li Xiaonan nodded in satisfaction, wrapping his arm around Huang Yan's slender waist and teleporting directly to the Outer Academy.
Time flew by like a fleeting horse. As they looked at the tall archway, both Huang Yan and Li Xiaonan were momentarily stunned.
"Let's go, Master's Wife!" Li Xiaonan steadied himself and took the lead toward the Outer Academy.
The layout of the residence remained unchanged; the Star Picking Tower still stood tall, though the Librarian inside had changed.
Cultivators passing by were all chatting with folding fans in hand, smiles on their faces and eyes squinted; they appeared somewhat foolish.
Li Xiaonan couldn't help but ask, "Master's Wife, why is everyone among the Cultivators wearing this attire now?"
Huang Yan laughed and replied, "Isn't it because of you? You've caused them all to be infected."
Li Xiaonan's lips twitched slightly as he said, "Are they fangirling? And over me? Haha, interesting, interesting!"
"You’re still laughing? You have no idea how much your previous lecture has influenced that generation and even several generations of Cultivation students!"
"Heh, Master's Wife, you know me; I was just rambling back then. Let's hurry and find my adoptive father!"
Huang Yan nodded with a smile, and the two of them moved directly to the Principal's Office.
"Who are you?"
Li Xiaonan and Huang Yan were both taken aback. Sitting in the Principal's Office was not Scholar Principal Duan Yu, but a woman in white, her appearance strikingly ethereal.
She tilted her face slightly, her dark eyes appearing hollow, clearly unable to see anything. Moreover, she hadn’t moved her lips while speaking just now.
This woman was none other than Duan Yu's master, Ruo An.
Huang Yan and Li Xiaonan exchanged glances before bowing respectfully to introduce themselves and their purpose.
Ruo An chuckled lightly, "So you are the adopted son that Yu'er mentioned. Indeed a remarkable talent. Yu'er and I have caused you quite a bit of trouble; I didn’t expect you to still invite him on your wedding day. Your adoptive father will surely be very pleased."
Even though Ruo An was blind, her cultivation level allowed her to perceive everything she wished to see.
Li Xiaonan frowned slightly; this woman spoke in fragments—causing trouble? What trouble had they caused him?
She sighed again, "It's just... sigh, he is currently on Tian Yu Island transcending tribulation. I wonder if he can get through this ordeal..."
"What? My adoptive father is transcending tribulation? I need to go check!" As soon as Li Xiaonan finished speaking, he teleported away, leaving Huang Yan and Ruo An stunned in the room.
Huang Yan sighed and said, "I suppose you must be the master of the Grand Elder?"
Ruo An lifted her head slightly and asked, "Do you recognize me?"
"The Grand Elder may seem frivolous, but he has his moments of stillness. He loves calligraphy above all else, and the phrase he writes most often is 'As long as you, Ruo An, are well, it is a sunny day.'"
Ruo An slowly closed her eyes, tears streaming down her cheeks as she murmured to herself, "Enough, enough! I have repaid the kindness owed to the Yellow Emperor. Now, as long as Duan Yu is well, I will do anything he asks!"
Meanwhile, Li Xiaonan had already arrived at Skyward City. He saw dark clouds gathering over the island, and a bolt of lightning struck fiercely at the center of the island.
Li Xiaonan was taken aback and quickly flew downward, puzzled. "Has it already begun?"
"Ahhh!" It seemed to respond to his question; a pained roar echoed from the island—Duan Yu's voice.
Half of Duan Yu's body was already buried in the sand. The fourth bolt of Tribulation Lightning had just fallen, and it was clear he could no longer withstand it.
Despair washed over him as he thought: Master, I’m sorry for failing you; I can no longer take care of you... Indeed, I have committed too many wrongs before, which is why this Heavenly Tribulation is so fierce.
Heaven wants to destroy me! No! I have brought this upon myself!
