"What you said makes sense. I've come to terms with it now; in this world, without power, you cannot survive."

Shen Wang nodded. With more experiences, his thoughts were changing, becoming more realistic. Gone were the days of straightforward revenge; not everything was black and white.

"Glad you understand. You're just a servant now, still dare to talk back to me."

Silver Moon sneered.

"Not only dare I talk back, but I even dare to pursue you."

Shen Wang boldly looked at Silver Moon. His perspective indeed changed; he wouldn't dare to act like this before.

"What a daring servant." Silver Moon mocked.

"If I marry you, wouldn't the servant title vanish immediately? I'd become the brother-in-law of the Sixth Prince, why not?"

Shen Wang smiled.

"Keep dreaming your daydreams."

Silver Moon didn't want to talk to Shen Wang anymore, bowing her head to eat.

"What if I succeed?"

Shen Wang shrugged, "By the way, what's your original name?"

"Don't want to tell you."

Silver Moon grunted.

"Afraid to tell me, so I won't directly propose to your father?"

Shen Wang asked back.

"You really have a big mouth."

Silver Moon was disdainful, "To propose to my emperor father, do you have the background of a Nascent Soul Great Cultivator, are you royalty, or a major sect's direct disciple?"

"No, but I have confidence."

Shen Wang laughed, "I myself will become a Nascent Soul Great Cultivator, forming a powerful background."

"This is such misleading confidence."

Silver Moon sneered.

"Will you tell me your name then?"

Shen Wang continued with the previous question.

"No, you don't need to know it."

Silver Moon was impatient.

"How old are you then, I'm thirty-eight. How old are you?"

Shen Wang asked, "You've reached Core Formation, should be older than me, right?"

Bam.

Silver Moon slammed her chopsticks on the table, her brows furrowed, "Are you done?"

"Not yet."

Shen Wang shook his head, "Did you not just say you wouldn't get angry because of me? Why so angry now, genuinely moved by me?"

Silver Moon's eyes blazed with fire, "You really think you're an onion!"

"Yeah, indeed, I've always seen myself as an onion."

Shen Wang nodded.

Silver Moon's chest heaved, breathing heavily, reminding herself, "Can't get angry, how could I be affected by this person's words, he's just a servant, not worth my attention."

"If you're angry, vent it out, isn't holding it in uncomfortable?"

Shen Wang was puzzled, "Isn't your royal family living very oppressed?"

"You!"

Silver Moon couldn't believe how eloquent Shen Wang was, yet so infuriating, rose and slammed the table, "Go to hell!"

After speaking, she was too lazy to stay, turned and left.

Shen Wang smirked, instead found it amusing, "This woman's mentality isn't strong enough, after all, growing up with rich resources, her mindset isn't stable."

He continued to enjoy his meal leisurely, gazing into the distance.

That Yun Lingshu wasn't killed by the Demon Suppression Department last time, now appearing, perhaps planning to collaborate with Jade Silkworm Valley?

If so, things might become chaotic next.

He wasn't anxious at all, the more chaotic the situation the better, perhaps he could slip away.

Preferably hiding at home, he didn't much want to stay on someone else's ship.

At this time, Gui Xiang approached, saying, "Younger Brother Shen looks very relaxed, do you still need detoxification?"

"Yes, but it's not as urgent as before."

Shen Wang nodded, he still wanted to understand Gu Poison, mastering a skill was never a burden.

"If you want to meet Sister Molan, now is an opportunity, I just heard Sister Molan is out of seclusion."

Gui Xiang smiled, "I can help you inform her when she's free."

"Thanks, Brother Gui, please sit down, I'll order another pot of wine, let's have a drink."

Shen Wang knew people didn't come running to tell him for nothing, promptly ordered wine and dishes, hosted, and afterward handed over a bag of Spirit Stones.

Gui Xiang left satisfied, Shen Wang also returned to his residence, full from the good meal.

"Silver Moon didn't mention how to contact her, how would she instruct me?"

Shen Wang thought of something, then shook his head, too lazy to care more.

At night, Shen Wang cultivated normally.

Now, unable to nourish his wife's meridians to gain cultivation, Shen Wang felt the cultivation speed was frighteningly slow, under such circumstances, it might take ten years to reach Foundation Establishment Perfection.

"Rose and the others should be expecting soon, they should be able to resume normal speed soon."

Shen Wang checked the system, and there were no new Longevity Species yet.

Suddenly, his Eight Trigrams Plate vibrated.

Since arriving here, he had taken out the Eight Trigrams Plate and activated the Guard Array within to reassure his cultivation.

Now that the Guard Array was trembling, something must have entered its range.

Shen Wang opened his eyes, lit a lamp, and found a small poisonous insect by the door, anxiously circling because it couldn't get inside.

"Gu insect!"

Shen Wang recognized that this was a typical Gu insect, unlike the tiny Black Death Gu.

"Someone wants to target me, most likely those from the Jade Silkworm Valley, have they discovered my identity?"

Shen Wang was uncertain, but before he could go out to investigate, there was a crash nearby, followed by something breaking.

He sent his thoughts to investigate, and a full moon rose gracefully from a house, followed by a loud boom as the roof was shattered by a massive force.

A graceful figure darted out in the moonlight, followed by a swarm of dark insects that devoured much of the moon's glow.

Under the light, Shen Wang observed that the entire guest area was crawling with various poisonous insects, which looked quite frightful.

"Dogs of the Sun and Moon Dynasty, you can't escape!"

A withered cold laugh echoed in the night, seemingly coming from all directions, making it hard to pinpoint.

"Stop the nonsense, let's capture them first."

Another woman's voice spoke, and then at least two people rushed toward the Silver Moon, while a screen appeared in the sky, blocking Silver Moon's path.

Suddenly, there was no escape.

Silver Moon began to fight with the two cultivators from Jade Silkworm Valley, clearly at a disadvantage in a one-against-two battle.

"Was I discovered so easily?"

Inside the room, Shen Wang stroked his chin, feeling it was too simple.

Suddenly, light appeared in the dark night.

The sky brightened.

The brilliance was not from the Array Barrier but from outside.

Shen Wang approached the window and saw a golden fire dragon approaching from afar, emitting a dazzling light, and then, like opening its mouth, blasted a massive beam of light upon the Jade Silkworm Valley's Array Barrier.

The thick Array Barrier rippled like a lake hit by a stone, violently distorting at its center.

The shockwave from the attack made the entire Jade Silkworm Valley tremble, possibly mistaken for an earthquake by those unaware.

The terrifying heat wave continuously emanated from the impact point, and the light beam relentlessly unleashed flames, melting a hole through the Array Barrier in no time.

Immediately, a ship's bow wreathed in flames forced its way in, wedging the opening and preventing the array from self-repairing.

The firelight caused many Gu insects in the valley to screech, and those afraid of the light hid in crevices, suddenly losing their previous arrogance and vitality.

The faces of the cultivators from the Jade Silkworm Valley drastically changed, gazing up at the sky with ugly expressions.

The force emanating from the ship's bow seemed like a dragon's head, majestic and domineering, looking down on the entire Jade Silkworm Valley, giving a significant sense of oppression.

"Jade Silkworm Valley, my people from the Sun and Moon Dynasty are not someone you can mess with. Attack again, and we will break your array and destroy Jade Silkworm Valley."

An overbearing voice came from the fire dragon, stopping the two attacking Silver Moon and making them face the outside world anxiously with others.

"Aren't you being too excessive?"

A white-clothed figure flew out from the valley, his voice heavy, accompanied by several Golden Core cultivators as they confronted the fire dragon head-on.

"Excessive? My people came to your valley seeking medicine and were ambushed by your men in the middle of the night, using poison Gu and such. How are you different from Evil Demons and Outsiders?"

The Sixth Prince mocked: "Are you trying to emulate the rebellion of the Celestial Travel Sect?"

The Valley Master frowned: "We dare not, these are just naturally growing insects everywhere in Miao Province, unrelated to demons. It was all a misunderstanding earlier, Sixth Prince, please don't be too agitated. We don't want a war with you like the Celestial Travel Sect, causing unnecessary losses, do we?"

With these words, he temporarily conceded, unwilling to fight, as he didn't expect the Sixth Prince to make a move directly. Now, he was clueless about the other's situation and dared not engage rashly.

"A misunderstanding? You think you can end this with just one word of misunderstanding?"

The Sixth Prince was dissatisfied with such an answer.

The Valley Master could only say: "Jade Silkworm Valley will present a sincere apology."

"Smart choice, then this prince will stay here to see your sincerity."

The Sixth Prince clearly intended to extort, making the faces of Jade Silkworm Valley's cultivators unsightly, their expressions full of aggrievance.

Seeing this, Shen Wang understood that these people were completely acting with intent, no wonder they were discovered so quickly.

However, the Sixth Prince really had audacity, daring to extort a Major Sect directly. It remained to be seen whether the Jade Silkworm Valley would resist first or if the Sixth Prince would retreat out of guilt.

Rustle rustle.

The surrounding poisonous insects began to retreat, and the confrontation ceased just like that, leaving many outside guests so frightened their legs turned to jelly.

Shen Wang, however, thought of Yun Lingshu, whom he glimpsed during the day. The fact that people from the Celestial Travel Sect were here could significantly impact the Jade Silkworm Valley.

At this moment, Jade Silkworm Valley sent people to meet with the Prince to discuss the apology.

The Valley Master did not go himself, and Shen Wang secretly used the power of the Tai Chi Yin Yang Mirror, merging his thoughts into Yin and Yang Qi, simultaneously applying the Array King's experience newly inherited from Xue'Er, stealthily evading the array or using it to hide himself as he investigated.

The Valley Master and several others with troubled expressions reached the depths of the Elder Hall, where a woman in a black cloak was seated.

Shen Wang studied the restrictive array at the entrance and slipped through a flaw without approaching anyone, eavesdropping through air vibrations alone.

"Sister Molan, wasn't I right? The Sun and Moon Dynasty is indeed preparing to act against you."

Yun Lingshu advised, "Instead of being defeated one by one, we should cooperate to crush these people."

"Sister Lingshu, I can't answer you on this. Besides, I think he's mostly here to forcibly seize some herbs without reason to act against us."

A woman in black clothing across responded: "Moreover, if we cooperate to defeat them, we might invite even more trouble."

Shen Wang felt a stir in his heart, realizing that Yun Lingshu had come as an emissary to persuade Jade Silkworm Valley to unite against the Sixth Prince and his faction.
