Chen Changsheng did not care about the discussions the people of Sky Cloud City were having about him.
He did not even care what the major factions of the Great Yan Nation thought of him.
What number one family of the Great Yan Nation?
He could only say their vision was too narrow.
With his current Soul Formation stage strength, as long as he wanted to, he could easily sweep through the Great Yan Nation and the dozens of surrounding countries, large and small, and even directly establish a massive immortal cultivation clan spanning the Northern Region of the Eastern Wasteland.
But all of this was meaningless to him.
Once he married Luo Hao, traveled to the Campione world, and used that world as nourishment for his Yin-Yang Holy Body, he would truly be able to establish a foothold in the entire Eastern Wasteland.
The Northern Region of the Eastern Wasteland, where the Great Yan Nation was currently located, had tens of thousands of nations, and the patriarchs of the strongest empires were at the Soul Formation stage. But to him, it could no longer be considered much of a stage.
[Stumbled into a High-Tier Match: We're about to cross over soon! I've starved myself for a whole day, ready to eat my fill tomorrow!]
[Kashiwagi Eri: Xiaoxiao, you...]
[Kashiwagi Eri: Forget it, I'm already used to it. @Innate Wife-Taking Holy Body, I told my parents about the chat group. Can I bring them along tomorrow?]
[Innate Wife-Taking Holy Body: That is your freedom, but did you tell your parents how they will be sent over?]
[Kashiwagi Eri: Ehehe, no.]
[Stumbled into a High-Tier Match: Wow, Eriri, are you a little kid? You still need to bring your parents?]
[Kashiwagi Eri: I'm just a 16-year-old high school student to begin with!]
[Wielder of the Wicked Lord's True Eye: I told my sister, and she said she wants to go with me too.]
[Dual Cultivator of Buddha and Dao: I also told my master and master's wife. They said they want to bring all the disciples of Bamboo Peak along, is that okay? @Innate Wife-Taking Holy Body]
[Stumbled into a High-Tier Match: Now this one is a real heavyweight!]
[Dual Cultivator of Buddha and Dao: Uh...]
[Innate Wife-Taking Holy Body: @Dual Cultivator of Buddha and Dao, ignore her. It's fine no matter how many people you want to bring. The more, the merrier.]
[Dual Cultivator of Buddha and Dao: Thank you, Big Brother Chen.]
[Stumbled into a High-Tier Match: No way, am I really the only one going alone?]
[Emperor of the Ages: I am also going alone. I am not yet ready to inform others about the chat group.]
[God of Angels: Me too.]
[Stumbled into a High-Tier Match: Thank goodness. If I were the only one going alone, I'd feel like I suffered a huge loss.]
[Martial Arts King: @Stumbled into a High-Tier Match, I am already looking forward to your arrival.]
[Stumbled into a High-Tier Match: ◑﹏◐]
[Stumbled into a High-Tier Match: @Innate Wife-Taking Holy Body, Brother Changsheng, look at her!]
[Innate Wife-Taking Holy Body: Do you really have no idea why Luo Hao is targeting you?]
[Stumbled into a High-Tier Match: Wah! Then how would I dare to go!? Big Sister Luo Hao is someone who will gouge out the eyes of anyone who sees her face and cut off the ears of anyone who hears her voice!]
[Innate Wife-Taking Holy Body: It's not that outrageous, right? I haven't seen her do anything like that in the Chen family.]
[Martial Arts King: @Stumbled into a High-Tier Match, you'd better be careful when you get to the cultivation world!]
After sending this message, Luo Hao quickly came up to Chen Changsheng and explained indignantly.
"Those are all slanders! It's all just rumors! I've only done that kind of thing to a few former enemies!"
Luo Hao felt it was necessary to explain herself to Chen Changsheng.
She had indeed done those things when she was young, but how long had she been a Campione back then?
Furthermore, the ones she acted against were all former enemies.
Now she had been living in seclusion on Mount Lu for over a hundred years, and the outside world's perception of her was basically stuck in what she was like over a century ago.
Originally, she didn't care about this, but she absolutely did not want her husband, Chen Changsheng, to misunderstand her.
"Alright, alright, don't I know you by now?"
Chen Changsheng patted Luo Hao's head comfortingly.
"You've been in the group the longest, you should understand Xiaoxiao's personality even better than I do. She only dares to speak so loudly when she's in the group."
"I guarantee that once she sees you, she'll definitely cower like a quail."
He understood modern netizens like Gu Xiaoxiao all too well.
On the internet, they would chat about everything under the sun and run their mouths endlessly.
But offline, these kinds of people were basically the most socially anxious ones, probably not even daring to speak too loudly.
"Hmph! We'll see how she behaves then. I've been annoyed with that little brat for a long time!"
Hearing this, Chen Changsheng couldn't help but chuckle and shake his head.
However, he could also understand Luo Hao's resentment.
In the chat group, Gu Xiaoxiao basically only provoked Luo Hao, who was one of the earliest group members alongside her.
After all, the other person who joined the group with them, Esdeath, rarely cared about Gu Xiaoxiao's passive-aggressive remarks.
Only someone as incredibly proud as Luo Hao would be so angered by Gu Xiaoxiao's words that she would gnash her teeth in frustration, yet remain completely helpless.
"By the way, where is Esdeath? I haven't seen her for three days."
Hearing this, Luo Hao looked at Chen Changsheng with a resentful gaze. "Tomorrow is our grand wedding, and you're actually asking about that woman Esdeath today?"
Chen Changsheng gave an embarrassed dry cough. "Ahem, I was just curious. Besides, all the group members are coming tomorrow. It wouldn't make sense if Esdeath didn't show up, right?"
"She's fine. She's currently borrowing scriptures in the Scripture Pavilion, and she even said that after she defeats me, she'll come to challenge you, the kind where she bets everything."
As Luo Hao spoke, the way she looked at Chen Changsheng became a bit more resentful.
And just as she said.
Over the past half month, after being brutally beaten by her over a dozen times, Esdeath finally recognized reality.
If she wanted to challenge Chen Changsheng, she had to first defeat Luo Hao, the obstacle in her way.
And after coming into contact with the Chen family's Scripture Pavilion, which was unconditionally open to her, Esdeath gained immense confidence in defeating Luo Hao.
After all, the Chen family's Scripture Pavilion today was no longer what it used to be.
Its massive collection of books even included many Nascent Soul stage cultivation methods and secret techniques.
The guard at the door of the Scripture Pavilion had also been replaced by a giant tiger puppet that Chen Changsheng had patched up and made operational.
Esdeath was confident that as long as she was given time, she would definitely defeat Luo Hao.
However, she didn't know that Luo Hao was being nourished by Chen Changsheng's Yin-Yang Holy Body every day. Her desire to defeat Luo Hao was simply a fool's dream.
Unless she could also dual cultivate with Chen Changsheng.
But to dual cultivate with Chen Changsheng, she would have to defeat Luo Hao first.
Therefore, at this moment, Esdeath was completely unaware that she had fallen into an infinite loop.
"Haha, then let her be. I will have Chen Kun notify her tomorrow."
After Chen Changsheng finished speaking, he looked at Luo Hao and said with a wicked smile, "Tomorrow is the grand wedding. Have you stabilized your cultivation base?"
Luo Hao was just about to say that her cultivation base had long been stabilized.
But upon seeing the wicked smile on Chen Changsheng's face, a blush flashed across her breathtakingly beautiful face.
"Not... not completely stabilized yet. How about we stabilize it a bit more tonight?"
"As your husband, I am duty-bound!"
...
In the evening, Luo Hao sneaked into Chen Changsheng's room, only to see three equally breathtaking faces staring at her in surprise.
Luo Hao: "..."

No matter whether it was poison, drained blood and vital energy, diminished lifespan, or any other physical debuff caused by paying a price—once midnight passed, everything would be refreshed. From then on, whenever someone asked what kind of person Chu Ran was, the answer was simple: Forbidden arts that other cultivators dared not learn? Chu Ran would learn them. Prices that even demonic cultivators dared not pay? Chu Ran would pay them. Lifespan that even righteous cultivators dared not burn? Chu Ran would burn it. All the blood essence in his body? Take it. Want both his hands and feet? He would cut them off and send them to you. You say he’s finished? He wasn’t built to sit idle. You think he’s gone mad? No—he was simply waiting for midnight. From that day onward, Chu Ran would respect neither Heaven nor Earth, bow to neither gods nor ghosts. He had only one wish: For midnight to arrive a little sooner.
he colors of other people’s emotions. Light red meant anxiety. Gray meant exhaustion. Orange meant excitement. Yellow... meant repression. At the same time, he could gain unlimited control over one of those colors. Pale cyan: relaxation. Using this ability, he started offering “two-yuan hugs,” spending an afternoon exchanging emotional-color experiences with others. Then came his final female customer of the day— a girl whose emotional color was pure black... —— A week later, Xu Chuan had become skilled at using pale cyan—Relaxation—treating it like a bottle of menthol balm whenever he needed it. That was when he discovered he had unlocked another unlimited emotional color: Purple, the color of fear. So these emotional colors refresh every week? Fine, I take it back—I’ll never call you useless again... —— Much later, after Xu Chuan had accumulated countless emotional abilities, one night, he suddenly found himself inside someone else’s dream. There, he could use the emotional colors he possessed to paint. And in her dream, he painted her a shower of pink shooting stars, spreading across the depths of the night sky...
