Bai Suzhen, I really need to punish you properly.

"And this one too." Then, Wang Xuan took out another purplish-red pearl, its body faintly crackling with electricity. "This is the Thunder Spirit Pearl."

"Ling'er knows." Zhao Ling'er's eyes lit up, and she immediately added, "The Thunder Spirit Orb can control and manipulate lightning, which is of great help to Ling'er's cultivation and casting of lightning-based spells."

"You're so clever." Wang Xuan patted her head affectionately and teased, "If we had this before, Ling'er could have hit me more accurately when she struck me with lightning."

Zhao Ling'er blushed and explained in a soft voice, "Brother Wang Xuan, actually Ling'er didn't mean to chop you up."

Wang Xuan leaned closer and gently kissed her forehead: "I know, Ling'er is a beautiful and kind girl."

Zhao Ling'er pushed the Thunder Spirit Pearl back: "Ling'er only needs one."

"These originally belonged to your lineage."

These Five Elements Spirit Pearls are the most precious treasures of the Nuwa lineage.

If all five spirit pearls are collected and placed on the Nuwa altar, and Nuwa's descendants preside over a rain-praying ceremony, the power of the five elements can be used to bring down heavy rain and alleviate the long-standing drought in the Miao region.

Zhao Ling'er shook her head and said seriously, "One for you, one for me."

"Okay, one for you, one for me." Wang Xuan stopped insisting, put the Thunder Spirit Orb back into his cave, and asked with a smile, "Ling'er, have you thought about leaving here?"

"I've thought about it..." Zhao Ling'er asked again, "Brother Wang Xuan, are you leaving?"

"I am leaving, but I will take you with me. And your grandmother has already agreed."

"Really?"

"Really," Wang Xuan reassured her softly, describing the everyday life outside. "Once we get out, I'll take you to try some local delicacies. Do you know candied hawthorn? It's made by coating fresh hawthorn berries with thick maltose syrup. One bite, and you get a delightful mix of sweet and sour, crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. There's also osmanthus cake, soft, sweet, and fragrant with osmanthus aroma. And there's thin, crisp sesame brittle, which makes a satisfying crunch when you bite into it..."

Zhao Ling'er's eyes lit up as she listened, and she whispered, "It sounds delicious."

"Then you should get up first. Before we leave, show me around the place."

"Uh-huh!"

Ling'er got up and changed into a simple and elegant dress, her figure slender and charming.

Then she sat down in front of the dressing table, her jet-black hair tied into two small buns on the left and right sides, with two long ponytails hanging down from the buns and tied with blue ribbons, making her look delicate, lively, and ethereal.

Wang Xuan took her soft little hand and they walked out of the room together.

As soon as she entered the courtyard, Zhao Ling'er saw her grandmother. She quickly walked over, took out the glowing blue bead from her bosom, and smiled brightly: "Grandma, look, this is a gift from Brother Wang Xuan to Ling'er."

"This is?"

"Water Spirit Orb".

"This... is a Water Spirit Orb?"

Grandma's body trembled, her voice filled with disbelief.

She also knew a little about the Five Elemental Pearls.

Zhao Ling'er smiled sweetly: "Yes, Grandma."

Wang Xuan chimed in, "This was originally a treasure of the Nuwa lineage, and it should rightfully return to Ling'er's hands."

Grandma looked at Wang Xuan and was even more satisfied.

This shows that he truly cares about Ling'er.

After all, how many people in this world would give away a treasure they've already acquired without hesitation?

Zhao Ling'er looked up, her eyes filled with anticipation: "Grandma, Brother Wang Xuan said we're going to leave Immortal Spirit Island, is that true?"

Grandma smiled kindly: "Yes, it's true."

"Grandma, we're going out to play now."

Overjoyed to receive an affirmative answer, Zhao Ling'er held Wang Xuan's hand tightly and led him outside.

On this day, Zhao Ling'er smiled especially happily.

The night is getting darker.

Wang Xuan rolled over and gently pressed himself against Zhao Ling'er. Their eyes met, and Zhao Ling'er's face flushed instinctively, a hint of confusion in her eyes: "Brother Wang Xuan, didn't we consummate our marriage yesterday?"

Wang Xuan chuckled: "Ling'er, we are already husband and wife, so of course we can consummate our marriage every day."

"Oh……"

Overcome with emotion, Zhao Ling'er's delicate lips parted slightly, and incoherent murmurs escaped her lips uncontrollably.

……

The next day.

The shore of Fairy Spirit Island.

Apart from Wang Xuan and Zhao Ling'er, the other six maids have also been prepared.

Grandma smiled kindly: "You can all go now."

Zhao Ling'er asked疑惑地问道, "Grandma, aren't you coming with us?"

Grandma smiled and said, "If Grandma stays here, the flowers and plants here will need someone to take care of them too."

"But Grandma, I'm really worried about leaving you here alone."

Grandma smiled calmly, her tone reassuring as she comforted Ling'er: "Ling'er, you don't need to worry about Grandma's safety. If the formation is broken, it can be set up again. I've also learned some formations from your master, Palace Master Lingyue. If those bad guys dare to come, Grandma won't let them get away with it."

Wang Xuan also gently comforted her, "Ling'er, Fairy Spirit Island is also my second home. If you miss your grandmother, we can come over by boat together."

Zhao Ling'er's nose tingled with emotion, and she was gradually persuaded.

……

A group of eight people boarded two small wooden boats, and the oars gently parted the blue waves.

Grandma stood on the shore, watching their small boat drift further and further away.

Upon reaching the shore of Shengyu Village, the group disembarked.

Wang Xuan took Zhao Ling'er to a bustling market and bought many novel foods that she had never seen before.

Zhao Ling'er's stunning beauty attracted the attention of many passersby, making her very shy, and she subconsciously clung tightly to Wang Xuan.

Afterwards, the group arrived at a riverbank, went downstream, and took a boat all the way back to Qiantang.

As the boat slowly approached the shore, Mingzhu was seen standing on the bank, waiting. Her long dress fluttered in the wind, and she smiled radiantly.

"Young Master!"

"Mingzhu," Wang Xuan introduced. "Let me introduce you. Her name is Zhao Ling'er, you can just call her Ling'er. Ling'er, you can call her Sister Mingzhu."

"Ling'er".

"Sister Mingzhu."

Mingzhu led the way, with Wang Xuan and Zhao Ling'er following behind.

The high blue brick walls completely shut out the hustle and bustle of the market.

The floor was spotless, and the room was fully furnished.

It's not far from the county government office.

I think I specifically considered this issue when I bought the rouge.

While Zhao Ling'er was looking around the room, Wang Xuan quietly approached Mingzhu and whispered, "Mingzhu, you should go back first. Ling'er just arrived, so I won't be going back to the county office today."

This was Zhao Ling'er's first night away from Immortal Spirit Island, and Wang Xuan was her only support, so naturally he couldn't be absent.

Mingzhu nodded gently, then turned and left.

Before long, a servant brought over a sumptuous meal.

After a long day of travel, everyone was exhausted. After dinner, Wang Xuan told them to go back to their rooms to rest.

Inside the main room.

Zhao Ling'er asked softly, "Brother Wang Xuan, are we going to stay here from now on?"

"I have something to take care of. After I'm done, I'd like to take you back to Miao territory."

"Why?"

Zhao Ling'er went to Fairy Spirit Island from birth, so she didn't really have any impression of Miao territory.

"Because there's a really bad guy there who's always trying to harm you. You're my dearest wife, think about it, how could I tolerate his behavior?"

Zhao Ling'er shook her head repeatedly: "No."

"Yes, that's why I want to go back to Miao territory with you. Together, we'll deal with this wicked man and restore peace and order to Miao territory!"

Zhao Ling'er clenched her fists: "Mmm, we've taken care of the big bad guy!"

Seeing her like this, Wang Xuan couldn't help but smile softly.
