Investiture of the Gods: Childhood Sweetheart Daji, Starting with Quasi-Saint Cultivation

Night falls.

Inside Bixiao's residence, candlelight flickered.

Su Yunbai finished dealing with the official business of Tian Ce Mansion, and it was already 11 PM.

He didn't return to the general's mansion, but came directly here.

The courtyard gate was ajar.

He pushed the door open and entered.

Bixiao was sitting at the stone table in the courtyard, resting her chin on her hand and gazing at the bright moon in the sky.

The moonlight shone on her, as if draping her in a layer of silver gauze.

Hearing footsteps, she turned around.

Upon seeing that it was Su Yunbai, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"Yunbai".

She got up to greet him.

Su Yunbai took her hand.

"Why aren't you asleep yet?"

"I'll be waiting for you," Bixiao said softly. "I knew you'd come tonight."

Su Yunbai felt a warmth in his heart.

The two went inside.

Bixiao poured him a cup of tea.

"That's wonderful." Bixiao leaned on his shoulder. "Yunbai, everything you've done is for the sake of humanity."

"It's also for our sake." Su Yunbai hugged her. "Only if the human race prospers can we survive this calamity."

Bixiao looked up at him.

Will you keep going like this?

"Yes," Su Yunbai said firmly, "until humanity no longer needs to look up to immortals and gods, until we can control our own destiny."

A ripple appeared in Bixiao's eyes.

She reached out and gently stroked Su Yunbai's cheek.

"Yunbai, sometimes I feel like you're so far away from me."

Why?

"You have too much on your mind. Humanity, the Great Cataclysm, the future... I worry that one day you will break yourself."

Su Yunbai took her hand.

"Won't."

He lowered his head, his forehead touching hers.

"Because I have you."

Bixiao's heart trembled.

Su Yunbai continued, "Every time I'm tired, when I think of you, Daji, and Xiaowu, I feel that everything has meaning."

"You are my weakness, and also my armor."

Bixiao's eyes were slightly red.

"Yunbai..."

"Don't cry." Su Yunbai kissed away her tears. "Let's not talk about this tonight."

He got up and blew out the candle.

Moonlight streamed through the window, filling the room.

Dim, yet gentle.

Su Yunbai picked up Bixiao and carried her to the bed.

Bixiao wrapped her arms around his neck and buried her face in his chest.

She was a little shy, but bravely met Su Yunbai's gaze.

"Yunbai..." she called softly.

Bixiao trembled slightly and gripped his back tightly with both hands.

"Yunbai..."

The laws of love flow between the two.

It's not something that's deliberately forced, but rather a natural fusion.

Bixiao felt a warm power flowing through her body.

That was the origin of Su Yunbai's Law of Emotion, resonating with her magical power.

"Yunbai... I can feel you..." she murmured.

"I sensed you too," Su Yunbai whispered.

At this moment, their auras, magical power, and divine souls reached a perfect harmony.

Bixiao hugged Su Yunbai tightly.

The moonlight was serene.

The only sounds were each other's breathing and heartbeats.

I don't know how much time passed.

The tide is gradually receding.

Bixiao lay on Su Yunbai's chest, her long hair disheveled and her cheeks flushed.

Su Yunbai held her close, his fingers twirling her hair.

"Are you tired?" he asked softly.

"Mmm..." Bixiao said with her eyes closed, "but it feels very comfortable."

Su Yunbai smiled.

He pulled the thin blanket over the two of them.

"Go to sleep."

Bixiao, however, was not sleepy.

She opened her eyes and drew circles on Su Yunbai's chest with her finger.

"Yunbai".

"Um?"

"Do you think...we'll have children?"

Su Yunbai was taken aback.

child……

He had never thought about this question.

With the great calamity of the Investiture of the Gods looming, he dared not even think about it.

"Do you want children?" he asked.

Bixiao nodded, then shook her head.

I want to, but I don't dare to.

She said softly, "It's too dangerous now. I don't want my child to be born into this chaotic world."

Su Yunbai hugged her tightly.

"We'll have it after the great calamity is over."

"Mmm." Bixiao snuggled closer to him. "When the time comes, I want to have a son who looks like you and a daughter who looks like me."

"Okay." Su Yunbai kissed the top of her head. "Whatever you say."

Bixiao smiled contentedly.

She suddenly remembered something.

"By the way, what about Daji and Xiaowu? Do they also want... to have children?"

Su Yunbai remained silent for a moment.

"Daji thought about it. But she also said she would wait until after the great calamity."

"Where's Xiao Wu?"

"Xiao Wu...she never mentioned it," Su Yunbai said. "She always keeps her thoughts to herself."

Bixiao sighed softly.

"Once Chaoge is stable, let's bring them here. A family should always be together."

"it is good."

The two talked for a while longer.

Bixiao gradually became sleepy.

Just as she was about to fall asleep, Su Yunbai suddenly spoke.

"Azure Sky".

"Um?"

"Thank you."

Bixiao opened her eyes.

"What are you thanking me for?"

"Thank you for being willing to shoulder this burden with me," Su Yunbai said. "Thank you for waiting for me."

Bixiao smiled.

She propped herself up and gave Su Yunbai a light kiss on the lips.

"fool."

"We're family, no need for thanks."

She lay back down and quickly fell asleep.

His breathing was even, and his face was serene.

Su Yunbai looked at her sleeping face, his heart softening.

This proud fairy of the Jie Sect has now become his bedmate.

I'll stay by his side through thick and thin in this chaotic world.

He gently kissed her forehead.

"Sleep now, my fairy."

Moonlight is like water.

The night was gentle.

The next morning.

Bixiao woke up first.

She looked at Su Yunbai, who was still fast asleep beside her, and couldn't help but reach out and gently trace his eyebrows and eyes.

When this man was asleep, he lost his usual composure and sharpness, and became more gentle.

But the determination in his eyes remained clear.

As Bixiao watched, the corners of her mouth unconsciously turned up.

She leaned down, wanting to steal a kiss from him.

But he was startled when Su Yunbai suddenly opened his eyes.

"You...you're awake?"

Su Yunbai's eyes were filled with a smile.

"Someone's peeping at me, how can I not wake up?"

Bixiao blushed.

"Who peeked!"

Su Yunbai pulled her into his arms.

"I saw it."

"What did you see?"

"I saw a fairy staring at me for a long time."

Bixiao was so embarrassed that she punched him.

"Hate!"

Su Yunbai smiled and kissed her.

In the morning light, there was another moment of tenderness.

---

After breakfast.

Su Yunbai prepared to return to Tian Ce Mansion.

Bixiao saw him to the door.

"Are you coming again today?" she asked.

"Come on," Su Yunbai said. "I'll come as soon as I'm done with my work."

Bixiao nodded.

She suddenly remembered something.

"By the way, I sent a message to my eldest sister, saying that the situation in Chaoge is complicated and asking her to send some outer disciples to help. My eldest sister agreed and said that someone would arrive within ten days."

"Alright," Su Yunbai said. "When they arrive, bring them to Tian Ce Mansion to see me."

"Um."

Su Yunbai turned to leave.

Bixiao called out to him.

"Yunbai".

He turned around.

Bixiao stepped forward and straightened his collar.

Don't overwork yourself.

"Know."

Su Yunbai grasped her hand and squeezed it tightly.

Then it turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the horizon.

Bixiao stood at the door, gazing in the direction he had left.

After a long while, he turned around and went back into the house.

---

Tiance Mansion.

As soon as Su Yunbai landed, Fei Zhong rushed over.

"General! Something has happened!"

"What is it?"

"Minister of Works Zhou Ji, along with thirteen other court officials, jointly submitted a memorial impeaching you for 'abusing your power, wasting public funds, and misleading the Emperor's ears'!"

Su Yunbai raised an eyebrow.

"It's finally here."

He had long anticipated that the nobles would not stand idly by.

As his merits and virtues were bestowed, the people rallied to his cause, and his prestige grew ever higher.

This posed a huge threat to the nobles who controlled the government.

"What did His Majesty say?"

"His Majesty has kept quiet and hasn't issued the order," Fei Zhong said. "But those ministers are relentless and are said to be planning to launch an attack in court this noon."

Su Yunbai sneered.

"Then let them come."

He walked into the lobby.

"Prepare all the evidence against Zhou Ji and those thirteen men."

"yes!"

Excitement flashed in Fei Zhong's eyes.

He knew the general was about to make his move.

Su Yunbai sat in the main seat, closing his eyes to rest.

But he was making plans in his mind.

The merits have been bestowed, and the development of the human race has entered a normal track.

Next, it's time to clean up the court.

Those termites need to be cleaned up.

He opened his eyes.

A sharp glint flashed in his eyes.

Noon.

This is going to be interesting.
