Chapter 363: Chapter 192 Step Four of Cultivation: The Path to Transcendence, Pursuing Eternity_1

“I’m doing very well here.”

As she spoke of this, a genuine smile of happiness appeared on Bai Keqing’s face without any pretense.

Life on Chengsheng Mountain was countless times more relaxed than on Myriad Demon Mountain. There was no such great pressure; she didn’t have to worry about the welfare of her clan or ponder over its future, much less fret about her own future.

Here, Bai Keqing felt that life in Han Mansion was truly blissful.

She could discuss the strengths of cultivation techniques with her husband and quickly improve her own power through dual cultivation. Even when her husband wasn’t dual cultivating with her, she had access to an abundance of precious cultivation resources, without the need to fight bitterly for them.

When not cultivating, she could accompany the other pampered wives and beautiful concubines of Han Li on leisurely excursions, admiring the magnificent scenery of Chengsheng Mountain. Having been here for six or seven years, she had made quite a few good friends among her ‘sisters’, and they didn’t have to engage in vicious competition for favor.

Besides, she frequently visited her children—all six of them lived on Dengdao Peak, with numerous maids taking care of their daily needs, so she could watch them grow up gradually.

Her children were all highly talented, with two being Fourth Grade and four being Third Grade—standing out even within Han Mansion. Among Lu Tianxiang’s four children, only two could match them.

Among Han Li’s other pampered wives and beautiful concubines, apart from Long Yue, who had married into the family recently and had not yet had children, none of their offspring could match the talents of hers.

Once the six children grew to the age of eight, they would receive the best training from their father. With a smooth path ahead, they were bound to achieve great things.

All this brought immense satisfaction to Bai Keqing.

Demon Emperor Xue Yueqing and Yue Ji both watched Bai Keqing intently and realized that she showed no sign of lying. Moreover, it would be meaningless to lie about such a thing; she was certain to become Han Li’s Dao Companion and would soon learn the truth.

A feeling of absurdity arose in their hearts. Bai Keqing, a proud Demon King of the Demon Clan, had only been with this supreme power for a few years, yet what exactly had Han Li given her that made her so utterly devoted?

Bai Keqing still had her clan in the Demon Domain; wasn’t she worried about them due to her prolonged absence?

As these thoughts flashed through their minds, Xue Yueqing and Yue Ji continued to observe Bai Keqing, curious to hear what she would say next.

“My husband didn’t promise me much, only that he would help me rapidly increase my cultivation level and assist me in reaching the Divine Yuan Realm in the future.”

Bai Keqing smiled happily.

Han Li had indeed not deceived her; her cultivation had already risen to the Fourth Heaven of the True Martial Realm and was now charging towards the Fifth Heaven, all within just six or seven years.

If she continued to cultivate at this pace, it would take less than a hundred years to break through to the Divine Yuan Realm and become a Demon Emperor. What’s more, she even had hopes of reaching the Tongxuan Realm. What could there possibly be to complain about?

At that time, Han Li had only been at the pinnacle of the True Martial Realm. His cultivation was nowhere near as high as it was now. Although he could have easily dominated her, he had sincerely married her and kept all his promises, fulfilling them exceptionally well.

Bai Keqing was also curious about how her husband’s cultivation had advanced so quickly. She knew the other sisters were equally curious—people like Lu Tianxiang, Jiang Baiye, and Yun Miaoyi had past dealings with Han Li when his cultivation was still low.

But none of his pampered wives or beautiful concubines ever asked, knowing this was not their place to inquire. If Han Li wished to tell them, he would do so of his own accord. Asking might not only leave them without answers but could also annoy their husband and lower their standing in his heart.

As long as Han Li continued to treat them well, they couldn’t care less about these matters. The higher his cultivation, the better for them, as they could ascend to greater heights through his achievements, just as they had been experiencing rapid advancement in their cultivation.

“Is that all?”

Demon Emperor Xue Yueqing and Yue Ji were both surprised. They had thought Han Li had promised Bai Keqing many benefits, yet it turned out to be just this.

It sounded too vague, almost as if he was leading Bai Keqing on. Yet, Bai Keqing believed it.

However, considering Bai Keqing’s cultivation level, Xue Yueqing and Yue Ji had to dismiss their initial thoughts.

This didn’t seem like a deception!

Bai Keqing’s cultivation had indeed improved. She was only at the First Heaven of the True Martial Realm when she left Myriad Demon Mountain, and when she departed from the Sacred Dragon Secret Realm, she was still at the First Heaven.

But now, her cultivation had reached the Fourth Heaven of the True Martial Realm.

In just six or seven years, her cultivation had soared by three minor realms—a remarkable feat in the True Martial Realm, especially for members of the Demon Clan, since each minor realm could take hundreds of years to surmount.

It was as if Bai Keqing had saved herself over a thousand years of cultivation time…

Continuing at this rate, Bai Keqing’s advancement to the Divine Yuan Realm as a Demon Emperor was indeed just a matter of time.

A faint pang of envy emerged in Xue Yueqing’s heart. Her talent was even higher than Bai Keqing’s, being a Second Grade talent, but it had also taken her hundreds of years to cultivate from the First to the Fourth Heaven of the True Martial Realm.

And Bai Keqing had managed it in just a few years.

After a lengthy silence, Demon Emperor Xue Yueqing couldn’t help but ask, “Has he made any promises to me?”

Even if he hadn’t made any promises, she would have no choice but to yield in the end. However, if Han Li had made promises, the more substantial they were, the more they would signify his regard for her.

The more Han Li valued her, the more she could let go of her pride, for, as a Demon Emperor, she deserved such esteem.

Yue Ji also listened intently, curious about the terms the powerful man would offer Xue Yueqing.

And what about herself?

What could she expect to receive?

Engrossed in her thoughts, Yue Ji lowered her head, embarrassed by such improper considerations…

“Sister, you are a Demon Emperor, so naturally my husband will extend the highest regard to you,” said Bai Keqing suddenly, with a laugh, her beautiful and wild face flashing with a hint of envy.
