After all, who didn't start as a fried dough stick?

"Alright then, in order to prevent the storybooks from affecting your cultivation, let's make some rules."

Gathering all the girls in the courtyard, Chen Yuze slowly said, "From now on, you all have to spend three hours every day cultivating. Only after you complete your quotas will you be qualified to read the daily storybooks."

"I disagree!" Faced with this outrageous treaty, Ruyi immediately jumped out to object: "You are engaging in hegemony!"

"I wrote this book, and I can show it to whomever I want."

Who's this for? If you're not convinced, wait until the book is officially published before you buy it.

With a chuckle, Chen Yuze looked at Ruyi, who was stomping her feet in anger, and his expression was incredibly smug.

What disgusted Ruyi even more was that, even at this critical juncture of life and death, the group of sisters present still couldn't unite to fight against the enemy.

"I think what the master said makes perfect sense!"

Standing beside Chen Yuze, Chi Lian said in a serious tone, "Ruyi, you should learn to be more mature and try to think from the Master's perspective. The Master made us cultivate for our own good! Would the Master possibly harm us?"

"???"

When Ruyi was stabbed in the back by her best friend, her expression twisted so contorted it looked like her little toe was on a table leg.

It hurts, it hurts so much!!!

Left with no other choice, she could only cast a pleading look toward Yuanbao.

however……

"Ruyi, don't look at me like that. Even though we're good sisters, we still need to be reasonable when necessary, right? I also think that Yuze and Giegie are doing all this for our own good!"

"Yuanbao, how could even you..."

With everyone turning against her and abandoning her, Ruyi had no choice but to place her last hopes on Baihua and Moxi.

With the support of these two empresses, even Chen Yuze probably wouldn't be able to cause any trouble!

Unfortunately, reality is always much harsher than fantasy.

Bai Hua and Mo happy, who were arguing just a second ago, were now standing behind Chen Yuze, each looking up at the sky.

"Freedom is dead!"

So, after a cry of despair, Ruyi finally accepted the reality that both she and the story were controlled by Chen Yuze.

"I'll cultivate, okay? I'll cultivate!"

She glared at Chen Yuze in a huff, then turned and sat on the swing, beginning to circulate the demonic power within her body.

Seeing this, Chen Yuze shrugged and spread the Xuan paper out on the stone table:

"Don't worry, I'm not some kind of demon. You guys cultivate for three hours every day, and I'll write for three hours every day. And I promise I won't slack off, okay?"

"Great!"

The cheers were so loud that they quickly filled the courtyard.

Subsequently, the girls, eager to see the storybook as soon as possible, began to cultivate.

"That's true, we need to give them some motivation."

Smiling and shaking his head, Chen Yuze watched as the girls' enthusiasm was instantly aroused. He then took out the remaining lemon-flavored spiritual incense from his system space and lit it.

In no time, the concentration of spiritual energy in the courtyard increased several times.

"Well, I can't just sit idle either! Time to write, write!"

137. The Golden Crow Arrives at the Door

Several days later, at 9 PM.

After soaking in the hot spring with the girls, Chen Yuze returned to his room with a slight buzz.

His daily writing routine of three hours a day has made his life much more fulfilling than before.

Thanks to this, Chen Yuze is now going to bed about half an hour earlier each day.

After all, only by getting enough rest can one maintain the best condition when writing the story the next day.

Don't be fooled by Chen Yuze's mastery of writing novels; it only provides him with ideas and techniques for writing stories. When it comes to actually putting pen to paper, it still takes a lot of brainpower.

On the other side, the girls who had come out of the hot spring gradually returned to their rooms.

Incidentally, in order to avoid an awkward situation between herself and Chen Yuze, but also because she was craving the benefits of the hot springs, Moxi would usually wait until Chen Yuze had finished bathing before entering the hot springs.

Therefore, while everyone else was getting ready to come out, Moxi had only been soaking for a short while.

"You all go back first, don't worry about me."

After waving to Yuanbao who came to ask questions, indicating that she and the others didn't need to pay attention to her, Moxi leaned against the edge of the hot spring and looked up at the starry sky.

Floating on the tray on the water's surface was a small pot of osmanthus wine that Chen Yuze had specially reserved for her.

"This is truly a case of 'a haven of gentle pleasures, a graveyard for heroes.'"

Moxi picked up the white jade wine pot from the tray and shook it, then couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

If you ask her if she likes living in the courtyard, she will definitely say yes.

Here, she doesn't have to worry about national affairs, nor does she have to maintain the airs of an empress at all times.

The food and drink here are excellent, and the speed of cultivation is dozens of times faster than outside.

Not only can you soak in hot springs every day, but there are also exceptionally exciting storybooks to follow.

Although Bai Hua was a woman who was not very pleasing to the eye, it couldn't stop Chen Gongzi from being beautiful, kind-hearted, and having a pleasant voice!

Moxi absolutely loves it here!

However, it was precisely because she had been in this environment for so long that Mo Xi's state of mind inevitably underwent some changes.

Most importantly, it's her spirit that's what makes her stand out.

As the Empress of Tushan, Moxi's ambition is higher than anyone else's.

An empress sitting atop a cloud must possess the ambition and confidence to lead her people to prosperity.

However, the peaceful and leisurely life in the Chen family's courtyard was gradually eroding Moxi's spirit.

She was worried that when she returned to Tushan, she would never be able to become the person she used to be.

Once fully adapted

She adapted to life here and became accustomed to Mr. Chen's meticulous care...

Moxi was really afraid that she would have the idea of ​​abandoning Tushan and moving here to retire.

As the saying goes, it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to

Once a person becomes a useless person, there's no going back.

"Ah, I really don't know what Bai Hua is thinking. She's always so affectionate and clingy to Young Master Chen, she doesn't seem to care at all. Could it be that she really wants to abdicate and move here to give birth to a little fox for Young Master Chen?"

It's understandable that Mo Xi would be puzzled by Bai Hua's actions, as she was unaware that Bai Hua was secretly grooming a successor.

Moreover, she probably never dreamed that the woman she regarded as her lifelong enemy had already had an improper master-servant relationship with Chen Yuze.

"Tsk, the more I think about it, the more annoyed I get."

She downed the wine in the wine pot in one gulp, and a large amount of spiritual energy, along with the osmanthus wine, surged into her body. Moxi then simply stayed in the hot spring and began to breathe in the spiritual energy.

Only after fully absorbing the spiritual energy from the osmanthus wine did Moxi leave the hot spring and return to her room with a bewildered expression.

As she passed by Chen Yuze's room, she subconsciously transformed into an eight-tailed red fox and almost ran into Chen Yuze's room like her sisters.

In the end, it was only a little bit of shame that made Moxi give up the idea of ​​sleeping with Chen Yuze.

However, just as Moxi was being tormented by shame, a dark figure flashed through the air and landed in the Chen family courtyard.

The man was thin, and his long, dark hair moved with the wind.

At his waist hung a jade plate reflecting the moonlight, clearly an extraordinary object.

If Wang Fugui and Luo Baiwan were here, they would surely recognize this person's true form at a glance—the three-legged golden crow.

With a gloomy gaze sweeping over the mansion in the center of the villa, and recalling the information he had gathered over the past few days, the three-legged golden crow couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.

I never imagined that the daughter of the traitor would be hiding in this deep mountain forest, hanging out with a human cultivator.

In his view, this was most likely a trick devised by the daughter of the traitor in order to hide her three-legged golden crow bloodline.

"Unfortunately, his cleverness backfired."

A hoarse voice came from the mouth of the three-legged golden crow, and a cold smile appeared on its lips.

If you, a descendant of a sinner, obediently hide on Lion Camel Ridge, I really won't be able to do anything to you for the time being.

But since you've chosen to hide in these Evergreen Mountains, you're essentially walking into a trap.

"Women of the Golden Crow clan should take on the responsibility of continuing the bloodline of their race and lay eggs with all their might! This sinner's daughter has the blood of my Golden Crow clan, but she is unwilling to take on the responsibility of being a female Golden Crow. She is truly hateful! Such a lowly person should be captured and locked in the birthing room for eternity and fed tree sap!"

Just as Yuanbao said before, many members of the Three-Legged Golden Crow clan have become obsessed with the inheritance of their bloodline.

This three-legged golden crow is a perfect example.

At this moment, he had already raised the jade plate at his waist, letting the moonlight continuously condense on the jade plate!

This magical artifact is called the Moon Disc Mirror. Although it is a mass-produced item, it can absorb moonlight and unleash a devastating demonic power in one go.

These three-legged golden crows intended to use the Moon Disc Realm to raze this villa to the ground in one fell swoop, and then capture the daughter of the sinner and bring her back to their clan.

As the three-legged golden crow thought of this, the Moon Disc Mirror in his hand seemed to shine even brighter.

However, just as he was about to aim the Moon Disc Mirror at the mansion, a cold voice filled with murderous intent suddenly rang out behind the three-legged golden crow without warning.

"If you dare to wake Young Master Chen with this broken jade plate, I can guarantee that you will never be able to leave this courtyard."

"Varied……"

They turned around incredulously.

What appeared in the eyes of the three-legged golden crow was a graceful woman with red hair and red clothes.

At this moment, she was holding a ball of foxfire in each of her hands.

Behind it, eight fiery red fox tails swayed slightly.

"The Empress of Tushan!?"
