It’s hard to say whether it’s pain or reluctance.

Fang Yi’s heart is a mixture of complex emotions.

To say she really likes Weil Xiaobao, it’s not quite true. If she hadn’t been carrying Weil Xiaobao’s child, she would never agree to be his wife.

But at the very least, nominally, she is Weil Xiaobao’s wife.

Weil Xiaobao was killed by Ding Ling, the Immortal Realm Emperor.

What should she do?

Instinctively, Fang Yi chose to give up revenge.

Even when Shuang’Er angrily proposed to gather the forces of Marquis of Luding’s Mansion to deal with Ding Ling, Fang Yi couldn’t help but pour cold water on the idea, saying coldly:

"Are you sure you’re not just delivering yourself to death?"

She touched her belly and said:

"If you anger Ding Ling, the Great Emperor, everyone in Marquis of Luding’s Mansion will die. Do you want to watch Xiaobao’s unborn children die tragically?!"

Shuang’Er’s anger was immediately extinguished by this cold bucket of water, leaving her despondent, standing still.

Beside Shuang’Er, a petite and feisty young girl looked proudly defiant, her eyes unmistakably conveying arrogance and rebelliousness. After understanding, she said furiously:

"This matter definitely can’t be over just like this."

"Heh."

Fang Yi glanced at the girl, seeing it was Princess Jianning, and thought of Emperor Kangxi behind her. Fang Yi coldly smiled to herself but did not retort.

She could provoke Shuang’Er.

But she didn’t want to provoke Princess Jianning.

"Ake, what do you think?"

Princess Jianning looked towards Ake.

Ake sighed long:

"Fang Yi is right, we can’t afford to provoke Ding Ling."

"I am a princess; I will have my brother deal with Ding Ling!"

Princess Jianning was unwilling to give up easily.

Ake said:

"Now everyone knows you are the daughter of the false Empress Dowager’s illicit union. Are you sure Emperor Kangxi would offend a terrifying figure like Ding Ling for you?"

Upon hearing these words, Princess Jianning wilted instantly, anxiously pacing in place:

"What to do? Xiaobao is dead just like that; I don’t want him to die!"

Tears welled in Shuang’Er’s eyes, biting her lip, her delicate face alternating between pale and blue, clearly her inner world was in turmoil!

"I want to leave Marquis of Luding’s Mansion."

Fang Yi suddenly spoke:

"Before I leave, let’s divide the mansion’s wealth."

"What do you mean by this?!"

Princess Jianning rebuked with displeasure:

"Are you trying to split up the family?!"

"Now that Xiaobao is gone, do you think Marquis of Luding’s Mansion can last long? Emperor Kangxi won’t support a group of idle people. Preparing for the future and raising Xiaobao’s children is the important thing. Ake, Shuang’Er, Zeng Rou, what do you think?"

Fang Yi looked at the three women.

Shuang’Er said nothing.

Zeng Rou wiped her tears, nodded and said:

"Okay. Fang Yi, I’ll accompany you to raise Xiaobao’s children."

"If that’s the case, let’s split the family."

Ake saw the hearts disperse, realizing she as the main wife would be unworthy of the position, living together would only lead to daily strife, chaos, and disorder, so it would be better to split the family decisively.

...

The players watching beside were stunned.

But knowing Fang Yi as a refined egoist made them relieved.

Fang Yi is realistic, hypocritical, power-seeking, and cold-hearted.

Choosing to protect herself first, then to split the family is entirely normal.

But since Weil Xiaobao is dead, and the wives have dispersed.

Naturally, these players had no reason to continue serving the wives and immediately scattered.

Of course.

Before dispersing, obtaining some necessary benefits was essential, so they rushed towards the mansion’s treasury.

...

...

Ding Ling was unaware of all this.

Even if he knew, he probably wouldn’t think much of it.

He wouldn’t pursue a woman just for her beauty, so throughout, Ding Ling didn’t glance at Ake, Fang Yi, or others.

The only thing he cared about in this world was his friend Mu Jianping.

Fortunately, he passed on his Divine Skill to her, as long as she practiced diligently, when fate arrives, naturally they would meet again.

Swoosh!

Ding Ling grabbed Mu Jianping and Mu Jiansheng, leaping through the void like a streaking meteor, covering hundreds of miles in moments, reaching outside Chang’an City in a few breaths.

Stood there, one could see the Celestial Ladder reaching up to the clouds.

Ding Ling released his grip.

Mu Jiansheng quickly touched himself in shock, confirming he was unharmed, and couldn’t help but laugh awkwardly, bowing towards Ding Ling:

"Greetings Immortal Realm Emperor! May the Emperor’s celestial blessing endure forever, immortal and evergreen!"

Ding Ling glanced at Mu Jiansheng, said nothing, and instead looked at Mu Jianping, saying:

"I have said everything already. Let’s part here."

"Brother Ding."

Mu Jianping appeared very reluctant, eyes slightly reddened:

"Can’t you stay a few more days?"

"There is no such thing as a banquet that never disperses. Separation and reunion are the norm in life."

Ding Ling crossed his hands on his back, took one step, and vanished before their eyes:

"Train well. I’ll wait for you in the Upper Realm."

"Brother Ding, Brother Ding!"

Mu Jianping hurriedly chased after, but how could she see Ding Ling’s figure?

"Brother Ding left just like that?"

Mu Jianping’s face darkened, raised her head looking at the direction of the Celestial Ladder, silent for a long time.

Mu Jiansheng spoke to her, but she didn’t respond, seemingly in a state of utter loss.

Mu Jiansheng’s heart skipped a beat; what kind of person was he? Though far inferior to Ding Ling, he was far better than ordinary laymen, naturally seeing his sister loved Ding Ling and seemed deeply involved.

If it were before.

He would definitely rejoice uncontrollably.

But Ding Ling came and went swiftly, clearly a traveler in this world, and Ding Ling killed Lord Weil, offending Emperor Kangxi!

If known that Mu Jianping was closely connected to Ding Ling, she’d definitely face open and hidden suppression from Kangxi and Lord Weil’s factions.

Thinking of this.

Mu Jiansheng felt a headache.

He sighed and lamented.

After waiting a whole hour, seeing Mu Jianping stand like a Wangfu Stone, he could no longer bear it, stepped forward blocking Mu Jianping’s view, grabbed her shoulder firmly, and shook:

"Little sister, wake up! Wake up!"

This shake.

Mu Jianping indeed came back to her senses, and called: "Brother."

"Your Brother Ding has gone to the Upper Realm. Let’s go."

"Where to?"

"Yes."

Mu Jiansheng was stunned:

’Where to?!’

The home is gone.

Where can he go?

"How about we go to the Upper Realm too?"

Mu Jianping suggested.

"But we can’t ascend the Celestial Ladder."

Mu Jiansheng’s face turned unpleasant:

"Are you making things difficult for me?"

"I can ascend it."

"...!!"

Mu Jiansheng rolled his eyes:

"Your Brother Ding has left, and you’ve gone mad?! Little sister, listen to me, Ding Ling and us are from two different worlds, you have to think it through. Don’t dream away in daylight..."
