Taiyi Dao Fruit

Afterwards, Jiang Li and others approached Treasure Extreme Cave Heaven, and Heavenly Monarch along with Taibai True Monarch hastily left.

If he hadn't left, neither the people from Jiang Li's side nor Earth Uncle would have let him off.

Earth Uncle and Heavenly Monarch were just using each other; if they could get rid of each other, Earth Uncle wouldn't hesitate to take action. Earlier, Earth Uncle had underestimated Heavenly Monarch, but after witnessing Heavenly Monarch's current strength and schemes, if Earth Uncle still underestimated him, he would truly be out of his mind.

However, this wasn't the main point; the main point was the downfall of the Heavenly Incarnation.

"Heaven's will..."

Jiang Li whispered, "Or is it Heaven acting deliberately?"

Heaven must have long been aware of the physical body's issues but ignored them. He should have had a chance at the last moment, but gave up the opportunity.

It seemed that even the merciless, selfless Heaven wanted to interfere in the mortal world.

Or perhaps He had always been paying attention; it was just that no one noticed.

'Also, with the Heavenly Incarnation killed, the Oath of Heaven might be further affected; the alliance built by the Ji Family and the Jiang Family around the Oath of Heaven, and the Oath of Heaven made by Tianxuan to gain the trust of the Immortal Queen...'

Each matter, each incident, was quite troublesome.

The Heavenly Incarnation being slain not only meant that Heavenly Monarch had lost a powerful foe but also caused instability on Jiang Li's side.

Because of cultivating the Yin Talisman Scripture, Earth Uncle's nature had changed, and if the constraints of the oath weakened, that old fellow would definitely bring the rest of the Ji Family along to cause mischief.

If the Immortal Queen found out about the changes to the Oath of Heaven, she would also take precautions.

She might even already be preparing.

After entering the Divine Capital, the Immortal Queen first went to the Meng Family and is now likely discussing related matters with the old family head of the Meng Family.

Tianxuan also worried about this and, after informing the Princess, returned to Dragon Abyss Lake with Primordial Lord Rain Master to arrange seals to block off Treasure Extreme Cave Heaven.

"Just at this time, that troublemaker disappeared again."

Jiang Li rubbed his temples somewhat painfully.

His older brother went after Heavenly Monarch and, in chasing him, disappeared without a trace; now that Heavenly Monarch had achieved his goals, his older brother was still missing.

Just thinking about it made Jiang Li feel his injuries might relapse.

At this moment, a cool, delicate touch came from both sides of his head as Gongsun Qingyue silently appeared behind Jiang Li, extending her fair hands to massage his temples.

"After stabilizing the Taiping Sect, you have secured your position in the court, and even if enemies appear, they won't be immediate, so don't overthink things."

As Gongsun Qingyue spoke, she released the Treasure Lotus Lamp, massaging Jiang Li's temples while using the lamp to help regulate his body.

It seemed like he could feel the presence of the Treasure Lotus Lamp; Jiang Li felt his Mysterious Skill running more smoothly, and the insights from the Dao Fruit were also easily integrated.

'Could it be that Yang Jian, in his years of cultivation, was often refined by the Treasure Lotus Lamp?'

Thinking this, Jiang Li felt that he truly had a connection with the Dao Fruit of Qingyuan Miaodao True Monarch.

However, as the Cultivation Technique operated, sparks of electricity leaked out, attempting to backlash once again. The thunder left by Zhang Zhixuan was like a bone-deep maggot, giving Jiang Li a bit of trouble to handle.

With sparks flickering, Gongsun Qingyue got shocked, and couldn't help but say, "Stop fooling around. Now, who doesn't know Jiang Li for your crafty and cunning ways? Just hurry and recover from your injuries."

"Sister, you can't think a third-rank strong person's injuries are easy to recover from, can you?"

Jiang Li complained, "It's one thing for others not to believe me, but you too?"

"Believe you, a rogue who'd take a mile when given an inch?" Gongsun Qingyue punched Jiang Li's shoulder without good humor, "You've long been devoid of integrity in front of me, Master."

As she spoke, Gongsun Qingyue couldn't help but blush.

This rascal always liked to change tactics, having made her call him 'Master' persistently before.

As for Jiang Li not being able to recover from his injuries, Gongsun Qingyue absolutely didn't believe it. With his overly cautious nature, if it truly were unsolvable, he would have long gone to seek the support of the Old Demon; he wouldn't still be sitting idle.

"Cough cough, base desires, not everything can be generalized."

Jiang Li explained for himself and then, when push came to shove, "I truly struggle to recover from the injuries, but the 'Emperor's Pole Worldly Book' I created is now cultivating the step of Yin Yang Naturalization, and the Mysterious Skill I acquired from the Dao Fruit also emphasizes the Yin Yang Transformation. With the help of the Yin Yang Origin, the thunder of Zhang Zhixuan might be removed, and even benefit my cultivation."

Gongsun Qingyue was quite concerned when listening to the first part, but by the time she heard the latter part, she couldn't help but punch Jiang Li on the shoulders.

This Yan Country map is really too brief.

"What assistance from Yin Yang? You just want to share a bed."

Just an affiliated son-in-law, yet wanting to have your cake and eat it too? Wishful thinking.

However—

"It's not impossible."

After feeling annoyed, Gongsun Qingyue suddenly shifted her eyes and uttered a few words that made Jiang Li's heart skip a beat.

Then, she leaned forward, close to Jiang Li's ear, and gently parted her cherry lips, "As long as you do it like this..."

Jiang Li was a bit stunned; even with his wisdom derived from the Great Grandmaster, he had a hard time understanding Gongsun Qingyue's intentions.

"Senior sister..." He turned his head towards Gongsun Qingyue, feeling that her flowing hair was turning green, "You wouldn't have developed some peculiar fetishes, would you?"

"I don't agree, so you're not going to touch that old vixen anymore?"

Gongsun Qingyue scoffed, "Since I can't prevent it, I might as well give her a taste of her own medicine. You want to see my drama unfold? I'd like to see who ends up being more embarrassed."

"If it makes you happy."

What else could Jiang Li say? In the end, it benefited him, and saying more would just seem hypocritical.

And so—

An hour later, Tianxuan returned.

She was wearing an intricate moon white palace dress with long skirts trailing along the floor, and a light veil covering her face, dignified and elegant, walking unhurriedly into the hall where Jiang Li was.

Barely entering, she saw Jiang Li sitting back in his chair with his eyes slightly closed, some faint electrical sparks flickering on his body, while Gongsun Qingyue was massaging his temples.

Tianxuan immediately frowned slightly and briskly walked closer in two steps, taking hold of Jiang Li's right hand, "Hasn't the injury been suppressed yet?"

As she spoke, Taiyin Energy was already nurturing inside Jiang Li, skillfully mingling with the Innate Qi, while the image of Doumu Yuanjun emerged behind Tianxuan.

"The Buddha Country Guanyin intervened, the Immortal Queen was drawn away, and the junior brother alone faced Zhang Zhixuan, killing him with his own hands, but also suffered severe injuries," Gongsun Qingyue said both proudly and distressedly.

Although Tianxuan was already aware of the battle situation, she wasn't fully informed about the details, and now that she knew, she couldn't help but feel annoyed.

"Foolishly risking your life."

She summoned a chair with controlled breath, sat down, and further exerted her energy to help Jiang Li suppress the alien energy in his body.

The power of the third grade was truly formidable; as the True Qi was transported and balanced, the electrical sparks on Jiang Li's body began to subside, even inside his body...

Tianxuan suddenly realized something was wrong.

The alien energy within Jiang Li, though troublesome, had largely been suppressed, and the injury had stabilized.

This was inconsistent with Jiang Li's external appearances.

At that moment, the hand Tianxuan was holding subtly moved, dangling from the armrest to the side, sliding along the hem of Tianxuan's skirt, gently caressing her lower leg.

Beneath the skirt were silky, thin stockings, the warmth from Jiang Li's palm penetrating the silk fabric, causing Tianxuan's eyes to slightly widen.

Though it was a normal temperature, it felt too hot to her.

In reality, Tianxuan and Jiang Li's intimate contact occurred only once before in Liangzhou Province, and the last time they were, strictly speaking, spiritually connected. So at this moment, Tianxuan unexpectedly felt unusually nervous, and...

Gongsun Qingyue was right behind Jiang Li!

"Don't worry, senior sister didn't notice."

A faint transmission of sound reached her ear, and Tianxuan thought of Jiang Li's Illusion Technique, which had reached a level even third-grade cultivators found hard to see through; it slightly eased her mind.

Then, she suddenly tensed up.

A Sword Qi silently sliced through the silk fabric, and then Jiang Li's palm stretched further in.
