In the beginning, he was ranked alongside An Shigeng as a spoiled brat.

Zhang Xiaoshan spent his time with Yaoyue nothing more than admiring flowers and flirting, because there was really nothing else to do in this monotonous valley.

And so, three years passed.

At first, Zhang Xiaoshan was thinking about going out, but later he simply gave up.

Here, he was unable to recover his strength at all, and even the merit page was useless; the only thing he could control was his own body.

Three years have passed in the blink of an eye; for Zhang Xiaoshan in the story, those three years have truly been spent.

"As the ancients often said, 'A dream is but a fleeting dream.' Now that the Palace Master has awakened, why pretend to be asleep?"

The words had a double meaning, and Yaoyue, who seemed to be sleeping in Zhang Xiaoshan's arms, suddenly opened her cold, starry eyes, completely unlike her gentle and tender self of the past three years.

Zhang Xiaoshan spent three years here, and so did Yaoyue.

However, it seemed that Yaoyue had lost her memory, but she slowly regained it.

Moreover, Zhang Xiaoshan discovered a month ago that Yaoyue had regained her memories.

However, human nature is inherently greedy, and he was no exception.

But in the end, Zhang Xiaoshan still chose to prepare to wake up. After all, he wasn't just accompanied by Yaoyue, and this wasn't the real world, but Yaoyue's inner demon world. Who knew how much time had passed outside?

If you were away for three years, the world would have changed drastically.

"How dare you?"

"The way you put it makes it sound like you've been opposing things all month."

Zhang Xiaoshan's disdain made Yaoyue blush instantly; she hadn't expected that Zhang Xiaoshan had discovered it a month ago.

"You... you already noticed!"

“I’m not blind. Before, I was your concubine, but now I’m the Palace Mistress of Yaoyue. No matter how you try to hide it, you can’t conceal the change in your demeanor.”

"Then why did you leave?"

"Big sister, this is your primordial spirit's inner demon world, and we have been here for three years."

Even if it's all just a dream, who knows what's happened outside? I don't want to die without knowing why. Besides, when I came in, my wedding was less than a month away.

"Is it?"

Today, with everything laid bare, Yaoyue knows it's time to wake up from this dream.

Even though she didn't want to wake up, she knew this was a world of inner demons, and she couldn't stay here forever.

"We're husband and wife for one day, which is our final farewell."

"I won't be at a disadvantage!"

Greedily enjoying the last day, Zhang Xiaoshan also fully felt Yaoyue's domineering nature. Compared to his previous adorable wife, Yaoyue, who had regained her true nature, was indeed not a qualified wife.

···

"Young master has finally woken up!"

A delighted and excited voice echoed in my ears.

Three years later, Zhang Xiaoshan suddenly remembered that it was the sound of willow catkins drifting in the wind.

Three years have passed in a dream, as if it were a lifetime ago.

At this moment, Zhang Xiaoshan and Yaoyue opened their eyes at the same time. The instant their eyes met, Yaoyue couldn't help but panic.

This time it truly felt like an eternity at first sight, a fleeting dream.

But the reality of her dream left her unsure how to face it upon waking.

"How much time has passed since the drifting catkins appeared?"

"Young Master, this time you and Palace Mistress Yaoyue will be in seclusion for three days."

Moreover, the two streams of true qi, representing extreme yin and extreme yang, completely merged, allowing Palace Master Yaoyue to advance to the Grandmaster realm. However, young master…”

“I know my situation. My pure Yang Qi has already undergone a qualitative change. Unless I make a major breakthrough in my realm, it’s not a matter of Qi that I can take any step forward.”

"Congratulations, sis!"

"Congratulations, Great Palace Master!"

Bai Feifei, standing to the side, was filled with envy, jealousy, and resentment, and at the same time, she felt even more regret.

The attempt to invite the moon, which was originally impossible, was forcibly fused with the help of the Dragon Ball, demonstrating that the Dragon Ball's mystique was far beyond his imagination.

"…Sister Feng!"

Suddenly, as if missing her, Zhang Xiaoshan stepped forward and embraced Manager Feng's slender waist.

The large, warm, and safe embrace made Manager Feng feel a deep sense of longing.

Suddenly, a murderous aura surged behind Zhang Xiaoshan. Yao Yueyu clenched her fist, suppressing her killing intent to the extreme, before it vanished without a trace.

"sister!"

Lianxing noticed something unusual, just like the look in her eyes when she approached Jiang Feng back then.

"let's go!"

Having broken through to the Grandmaster level, and seeing the scene before her, Yaoyue immediately turned and left with Lianxing.

She really didn't want to see Zhang Xiaoshan being intimate with other women.

"Young Master, the Grand Palace Mistress..."

"She's jealous, just ignore her."

Jealous?

Both Liu Sheng Piaoxu and Bai Feifei looked at Zhang Xiaoshan in disbelief.

But thinking about what just happened, what else could it be but jealousy? Yaoyue suddenly stormed off when Zhang Xiaoshan was pleading with Manager Feng.

(Qian Hao Zhao) But how is that possible?

Even the person she was jealous of, Manager Feng, couldn't help but look at her with curiosity.

They had been watching Yaoyue's attitude towards Zhang Xiaoshan closely, let alone Zhang Xiaoshan's current actions.

"Young Master, what's wrong with you? You're acting so strangely all of a sudden."

"It was just a dream, I never thought it would actually exist."

Three days ago, when the true qi was merging, I forcibly activated the Dragon Ball to combine the two streams of true qi..."

As Zhang Xiaoshan slowly began his narration, the women were all shocked to hear that Zhang Xiaoshan's primordial spirit had left his body and that he had spent three years in Yaoyue's inner demon world. Their beautiful eyes were filled with disbelief.

"Three years have passed in a dream, and everything seems so real."

Leaving aside the countless moments spent with Yaoyue, even just our usual martial arts discussions—the Mingyu Gong, the perfected Yihua Jieyu, and the Flying Immortal Sword Technique we created together—are still vivid in my memory.

"How amazing!"

Chapter 134 Preparations for Mingchen's Wedding at the Zhang Family

"Young master, this is the Mingyu Technique!"

Inside Zhang's study.

Looking at the scroll of internal energy cultivation manual before him, which exuded the scent of musk and ink, Liu Sheng Piaoxu found it to be far more profound than the Xuanbing Force.

What appears to be an extreme approach to cultivation is actually the most superior internal cultivation method of Taoism.

The Mingyu Skill has nine levels, and the sixth level is the mark of a top-tier master in the world.

The seventh level resembles the realm of the Four Great Masters, ranging from the Four Great Masters of Condor Heroes to the Four Great Masters of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils; the eighth level is even rarer in the Nine Provinces, with only a handful of opponents, such as Dongfang Bubai's Sunflower Manual at its peak.

Not to mention the realm of the ninth level Grandmaster.

"Indeed, this is the Mingyu Technique of the Yihua Palace, and it must not be passed on to Japan."

If Hongxiao and the others practice this mental cultivation method together, they will definitely reach the level of a top expert within three years, and it will also have the effect of preserving youth.

Not everyone is like Yaoyue or Lianxing, and even Yaoyue and Lianxing stayed at the eighth level for twenty years.

Otherwise, if one cannot see through one's inner demons, even the ninth level is hopeless.

Therefore, Zhang Xiaoshan did not have high requirements for the women; the sixth level was sufficient.

At the pinnacle of cultivation, true qi transforms from acquired to innate, possessing various wondrous uses, such as preserving youth, achieving extreme coldness, and purifying essence...

As for the Flying Immortal Sword Technique, also known as the Twin Flying Immortals 837 Sword, it consists of two sword moves, one yin and one yang. The yang sword is fierce and powerful, while the yin sword is extremely gentle. When combined with the two people's ultimate yin and yang true qi, it can unleash an astonishing power.

However, this is merely an evolution of the inner demons in a dream; their true power has yet to be unleashed.

However, Zhang Xiaoshan truly brought out the Great Perfection of the Transplanting Technique at this moment.

The palm strike was chillingly powerful, and with each movement and pull, it was almost a display of the profound mystery of palm techniques.

If he were to use this against the top masters of the martial arts world, he could make them suffer the consequences without leaving a trace.

Therefore, Zhang Xiaoshan gained almost three extra years, which allowed him to become more proficient in various martial arts techniques, such as the Flower Wandering of the Jade Flute Swordplay, the external moves of the Pure Yang Finger, and various martial arts of the Nine Yin Manual. All these martial arts techniques seemed to have been refined through countless trials, and were integrated into the changes within his mind.

···

"Young Master, a nun with the Buddhist name Mingchen is requesting an audience outside, along with two Hu women. They are the ones from before..."

"Bring them in directly!"

The appearance of the Purple-Robed Dragon King and the Shana Tina sisters at this time was arranged by Zhang Xiaoshan.

At this point, they had already mastered the basics of the Sacred Flame Token Divine Skill and were using a three-person formation to fight their enemies.

However, Peach Blossom Island was isolated from news, and the three girls were unaware of the Dragon Ball until they recently came ashore and heard about its existence.

The two Hu sisters didn't care about this, but the Purple-Robed Dragon King, harboring ambitions, wrote it all down.

"Son!"

Led by the guards of the house, the ethereal nun Dai Qisi appeared before Zhang Xiaoshan.

Dressed in a simple white monk's robe, the stunningly beautiful nun seemed to descend from heaven. Even without the adornment of her long black hair, she was still breathtakingly beautiful, captivating all who beheld her.

Indeed, fate is unfair.

When you're good-looking, you look extraordinary and charming no matter what you wear.

Upon arriving in the backyard, Dai Qisi's beautiful eyes immediately caught sight of the exquisite palm techniques practiced by the three women.

Compared to the Sacred Flame Token Divine Skill they cultivated, Hongxiao and the others' Flower Transference Technique, under Zhang Xiaoshan's guidance, progressed by leaps and bounds, advancing by thousands of miles a day.

A group of graceful young women performed, their movements as swift and beautiful as butterflies flitting among flowers, a truly delightful sight.

These are all interests and explorations!

Hearing that Zhang Xiaoshan had learned all of this in his dream, Hongxiao Jiangxue was incredulous.

However, this strange experience also made them realize that the Zhang family had an additional virtual young mistress, and that this had been going on for three years. Otherwise, where would Zhang Xiaoshan's experience in the "Transplanting Flowers and Jade" technique come from? It was all accumulated through his own practice and the guidance of Yaoyue.

Moreover, after three years of marriage, it's not something you can just let go of so easily.

At least Yue's jealousy at the end said it all.

"What kind of martial arts is this?"

The profound mystery of the "Transplanting Flowers and Jade" technique was immediately apparent to Dai Qisi, who knew it was a peerless palm technique and couldn't help but be tempted.

As a master who has been wandering the martial arts world for a long time, he has an absolute greed for all kinds of unique skills.

'This is the young mistress's palm technique—Shifting Flowers and Jade!'

The young mistress's palm technique?

Dai Qisi was taken aback upon hearing this. When did the Zhang family get a young mistress?

Moreover, the "Shifting Flowers and Jade" technique is a renowned and unparalleled palm technique in the martial arts world, a closely guarded secret of the Shifting Flower Palace. So, wouldn't the young mistress be...?

As Hongxiao vividly recounted the story, both Daisy and the Tina sisters wore expressions of disbelief.

The Dragon Ball is mysterious; it can help the two palace masters of Yihua Palace break through to the Grandmaster level, which also shocked Dai Qisi.

"Alright, now that you're here, Mingchen will stay in the Buddhist hall from now on and attend morning prayers with Master Juezhi."

Tina, Shana, and Piaoxu lived together.

"Yes, Master!"
