Unknowingly, I have lived in the Duke of Huai's mansion for half a month.

This was truly a comfortable time.

During his solitary retreat, every single doubt and confusion found its perfect resolution.

In his spare time from cultivation, he accompanied Zuo Guangshu to experience the prosperity of Chu Du and appreciate the beauty accumulated over thousands of years of history.

There's nothing to worry about, and nothing that could possibly go wrong—except for having to dodge Ye Lan at night.

In the Cloud Nation, he still needed to hide his identity and live in secrecy with An'an.

In Chu, however, he could swagger about openly. If he so desired, he could also run rampant and domineer over others.

That evening, the old marquis returned home for dinner as usual.

During his stay in the mansion, Jiang Wang returned every day for dinner.

With the seated guests, there were Da Chu Yu Yun Chang Princess, Zu Guang Shu, and Jiang Wang.

By this stage of cultivation, practitioners no longer need to eat. Feasts and gatherings are simply for satisfying cravings and finding a suitable environment to socialize.

But the banquet in the Duke of Huai's mansion was naturally different.

Although it's impossible to compare to the skill of Lord Yu who presides over Huangliang Terrace, these dishes are also exquisite delicacies, all made from rare and precious ingredients that are beneficial for cultivation.

“This cloud of steamed buns is made with ingredients my grandpa personally had someone prepare. Ginger Big Brother, try it!”

Zuo Guangshu used a ladle to scoop out a milky-white dumpling from the golden phoenix-wing pot and put it into Jiang Wang's bowl.

She obediently scooped a berry for her own mother and grandfather: “Mother, Grandfather, you eat some too.”

The broth in the phoenix wings pot, which is specifically simmered, is also used for blanching food.

Jiang Wang took a bite of this soft and glutinous cloud bun, swallowing it into his stomach. He only felt his blood surge, his qi like clouds rising, and his whole body relaxed with comfort.

Deep down, he understood this was a specially prepared meal tailored to his current level of cultivation.

Although I don't know what ingredients are used, the fact that the Duke of Huai personally inquired about it tells me it must be extraordinary...

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

But at this moment, the warmth in my heart is more unforgettable than any physical benefit.

“Especially delicious!” Jiang Wang exclaimed sincerely.

The patriarch sat at the head, looking every bit the dignified elder. He chewed slowly and deliberately, rarely speaking, but a faint smile often played on his lips.

“By the way, Mother. The matter of the Golden Feather Phoenix Flower has been resolved, and it won't shorten our lives from now on.” Zuo Guangshu didn't follow any etiquette about not speaking while eating. He ate and talked at the same time, even raising his chin at Jiang Wang: "Brother Jiang helped with it."

At this moment, Xiong Jingyu had ladled a bowl of soup and gently pushed it in front of Jiang Wang. Hearing this, she smiled and said: "Our little Wang has quite the reputation in Qi."

Jiang Wang took the jade bowl and humbly said, "Oh, it's nothing. It wasn't difficult at all, just a few words."

If Zhong Xuan Pang in Qi heard him say this, I'm afraid he would have his bonus deducted to a negative amount this year.

This extremely rare orchid, which is in such high demand that it even sells to people from the Chu state, wouldn't be difficult to acquire.

In Qi state, this is the business of the Bao family.

Zhong Xuan Sheng also put in a lot of effort, paying double the price to buy it.

Let Jiang Wang figure it out himself. Don't even bother trying to say a few words, he wouldn't be able to find the entrance even if his lips were worn raw.

It is worth mentioning.

The business of this golden feather phoenix flower used to be handled by Bao Zhongqing within the Bao family. Later, it was taken over by Bao Bobiao.

This isn't unusual. The succession dispute among the descendants of Bao Shi is already clear, and Bobo Zhao inherited more than one kind of business.

>

In the future, there might still be a share for Bao Zhongqing, but by then it would already have been assigned to him by Bob Zhao, and its meaning would no longer be the same.

It's just...

Taking advantage of the rarity of the Jin Yu Phoenix Flower, they arbitrarily raised prices for clients like the Zuo family of the Chu state. Later, under the heavy profits offered by Chong Xuan Sheng, they easily resold the deal...

Given Jiang Wang's limited contact, Bob Zhao should not be such a short-sighted person.

But Bob Zhao might have other considerations as well.

In short, the internal affairs of Bao's family are none of his Jiang's business.

He would be very satisfied if he could help Guangshu's family solve a little problem.

A bright yellow jade lamp hung on the wall, spreading a warm glow throughout the dining hall.

Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

A few people ate and talked, laughing from time to time.

Jiang Wang had never seen such a scene in his memory.

When he was very young, his mother passed away, and he never really got close to his stepmother, Song.

Here is the translation of your provided text:

Later, when he was in Linzi, Lady Li treated him with great kindness. Feng Yao and Long Chuan were also good friends, but at the Marquis of Cui's Mansion, there were still some restraints that he couldn't let go of.

That feeling of "home," which had been blurry for so long, strangely enough, I felt it in a place I had never imagined before.

But Jiang Wang ate, drank, and laughed, yet understood that he should leave.

He understood that he was only a temporary replacement, a short-lived substitute for someone else, a fragile and unsupported hope.

The mark of the Lunar Key is always concealed, unless

something awakens it.

When he was at the Duke of Huai's mansion, however, he kept it constantly manifesting.

In that impossible past, he hoped the person who shone as brightly as the sun could feel how many people still loved him...

>

He understood that he was not Zuò Guāngliè.

He can have a brotherly affection for Zuo Guangshu, and he can get along with the Zuo family sincerely, but he cannot accept that kind of attachment without qualms.

This period of time at the Marquis' Mansion of Huai in Chu State was truly wonderful.

Zuo Guangshu was treated as an elder brother by his superiors, Princess Yuyun bestowed upon him the affection reserved for nephews, and Duke Huai also showed him great warmth and consideration.

Staying here feels very homely.

But here...

It's not my own home.

Let me know if you'd like me to translate any other text!

I have no home.

The lighting is soft, with casual conversation. Whose child’s dinner is this Vegetable porridge and hot soup.

In this indescribable warmth.

At this moment.

Jiang Wang really wanted to see Jiang An'an.

Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

Where my heart finds peace, there my heart rests in peace.

"I'm leaving." After completing his daily practice at the Starry Firmament Tower, Jiang Wang said to Zuo Guangshu.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Zuo Guangshu, who was sitting in meditation, suddenly jolted awake, opened his eyes and said, "I give you this."

There's no need to hold back, nor is there a need to try and keep someone.

Growth is composed of countless farewells.

“Take me to see the Grand Princess and the Old State separately.” Jiang Wang said.

Zuo Guangshu silently got up and led the way ahead.

The great Chu's Jade Rhyme princess, said a bunch of nonsense, about eating well, dressing warmly, and taking good care of herself, then forcefully shoved a storage box into her possession before returning to watch ants.

The Duke of Huai, Grand Preceptor of the State of Chu, sat in his study, head bowed over his writing. He uttered only one sentence:

"If you're not happy staying in Qi, welcome back to Chu. I have... a spacious house here."

Besides saying goodbye and taking care, Jiang Wang didn't know what else to say.

So, he turned and left.

This period of "make-up classes" was deeply meaningful to him.

A duke, and the head of a thousand-year-old family like the Zuo clan of Chu, his background and resources are immeasurable.

Jiang Wang's any shortcomings, all can't escape her husband's eyes. A little guidance, is like dispelling clouds to see the sun.

Even before he entered the Outer Hall, Dou Zhaozhen, with such distinguished lineage, already knew every step of its perfect construction.

This is a placeholder text.

Jiang Wang only caught up on the basics until this point in time.

...The Huidou Seal and the Bi Fang Seal, which were obtained in the Shan Hai Realm, have already been mastered under the guidance of my grandfather. As for cultivation, it can be considered that I have completed one stage.

"Just bring it here! Tell Shunhua for me."

Outside the smooth and wide official road, Jiang Wang waved his hand and bid farewell to this city of utmost splendor, the jewel crown of the South Region. In his blue robes, he strode away with long steps.

A boy in a water-blue robe stood at the city gate, without sending any further farewell.

A gaze carries weight.

Its closeness, its reluctance to part.

All are the true weight in one's heart.

Anyone who is willing can perceive it. It does not require extraordinary cultivation.

Jiang Wang silently felt that weight, his footsteps never stopping.

The official road outside the capital city of Chu stretched as far as the eye could see, seeming to reach the edge of the sky. The vast territory of the Great Chu Empire was divided by these roads.

In the vastness of space and the immensity of time... people are sometimes like ants.

At a certain moment, Jiang Wang pressed his long sword and suddenly turned around!

He had walked a long way, yet Ying City still stood magnificent in his sight.

He saw——

At this very moment, half of the city of Ying is bathed in a brilliant golden light.

A city of glittering gold!

There was a figure of extreme arrogance, standing high above the city, shining like the sun in the sky.

Four dazzling stars blazed on the horizon, and the true sun showered its brilliance, but none of it compared to his radiance.

Right this very moment, at this very instant, between heaven and earth, a proclamation of the Way has arrived.

There is a great resonance taking place.

Primal energy surges, the essence of life ascends...

Someone is ascending to the divine!

And looking at the entire Chu nation, during this period of time, besides Dou Zhao, who else could have such a presence!

Alone on the mountain, amidst the vast sea, who would care for a blade held high

When the divine power of Jin arrived, it illuminated even Chu's illustrious kingly court!

Jiang Wang glanced at him from afar, not concealing his admiration, then turned and walked away on Qingyun.

The path of cultivation is long, and all are struggling along it. Some go ahead, some lag behind, that's all there is to it.

>

The divine descent is merely the beginning of Dou Zhao's journey, and it will certainly not be the end for Jiang Wang.

When it arrived, a thousand riders greeted it like rolling thunder.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

When leaving, even the illustrious King Chu with his golden armor followed.

The great Chu, a land of talented people and abundant resources!

In the midst of those ethereal and graceful clouds.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Suddenly, a voice arose, bearing down with a ferocious and arrogant air.

"Ginger Qingyang!"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

The sound of Dou Zhao!

In the resonance of heaven and earth, he is now a godlike being.

At this moment, his voice seemed to be infused with radiance, radiating in all directions with a scorching intensity: "I have reached the limits of the Outer Court. With my blade, I am invincible in this world! After the divine arrival, I eagerly anticipate your challenge, Heaven-Piercer!"

Jiang Wang gazed down with a fluttering, ethereal gait.

Dòu Zhāo's outer courtyard is unmatched in the world.

He acknowledged it.

Although he didn't know where the Blood Battle Labyrinth returnee Chong Xuan had reached now.

But Dou Zhao had undoubtedly reached the end of the outer courtyard realm, with a single strike vanquishing all manner of methods.

Unless there is a historical innovation in the cultivation system, tracing back from the present to all previous worlds, no cultivator on the outer layers can match him, let alone surpass him.

So he said that his current state was unmatched in the world, without a doubt.

But in the Shan Hai Realm, he Jiang Wang was indeed unable to stop the Tianshao Blade.

Therefore, Dou Zhao is completely qualified to have this expectation.

> Looking forward to his growth after the divine arrival.

This is the first day of Great Chu's glory, with the confidence and pride it deserves.

Jiang Wang did not remain silent.

He responded to this expectation.

He stood in the distant sky outside Ying City, his figure like a sword standing upright, with an unwavering steadfastness. Beyond the fluttering Ruyi Immortal Robe, a circle of brilliant crimson suddenly unfolded, and then blossomed like a rainbow, with flames dancing everywhere!

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

That leaping

was the all-consuming Samadhi True Fire, almost disintegrating even the viewer's gaze.

And with one hand, he formed the square seal.

Under the boundless flowing flames, a single-legged divine bird with azure feathers, crimson markings, and a white beak manifested, flying through the fire!

It is majestic, resplendent, like a deity commanding flames.

And upon its back, Jiang Wang's frost cloak billowed like a flag.

He looked over, his eyes like swords had long been singing —

“When I, the divine, arrive from the East, your swords will not remain unsheathed!”

Its sound echoed through the Chu king's capital.

The person has ridden the divine bird Bi Fang far away.

The voice was faint, and so were the people.

>

This scene will surely be remembered by many.

>

Many children must have witnessed this scene and from then on looked up at the starry sky with awe.

The long history of the cultivation world is a series of heroic tales.

In a certain courtyard in the capital city of Chu.

A child's innocent voice rang out: "Mother, who is Jiang Qingyang"

“He…” Mother’s voice replied: “He’s the top student of Huang He from the Inner Courtyard, a Daoli Three Nine Nineteen year graduate. He is Qi Country’s number one prodigy, surname Jiang, name Wang, and Qing Yang is his honorary title. He’s very capable! But he’s still not as good as our Dou Zhao!”

"How can I be as good as them"

"Starting today, study diligently, get up early to practice, and accumulate small steps to reach thousands of miles. As long as you keep working hard, you will be as amazing as them."

"Ugh...why do I still have to read"

“Because you not only have to work hard, but also know why you are working hard. Only when you fully understand the meaning of your journey can you go further. Don't look at Dou Zhao and Jiang Wang, they all seem like rough people, and they usually keep their hands busy!”

“Oh…”

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Their voices had not yet fallen.

There was another resonance between heaven and earth.

A majestic and powerful blood-red wolf smoke surged out from the Chu King's capital, seeming to directly pierce the heavens!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom...

Twenty-one deafening roars, like the sound of drums and thunder, shook the heavens and the earth. At the end of the pillar of blood and smoke, the smoke billowed, and beyond the sky, there seemed to be layers upon layers of heaven.

Another god has arrived!

Another life has come to an end, and a new one begins.

and is a martial artist from the mortal realm, with twenty-one levels of strength. He has cultivated his qi and blood to a divine level!

His flesh and blood, bones and hair, all surpassed the celestial beings.

Accompanying this grand resonance was a roaring, furious voice: "I'm right here, who are you expecting! You little brat of the Dou Clan, do you think you're someone important!"

“ …Who is this person” asked a curious child in the yard.

But his ears were quickly plugged.
