It was already five days later when they returned to the Southern Border.
There was no need to rush for the return trip, so Su Chen did not travel at the same time. Instead, he took Ye Beibei to play on the sea for a while to help her calm down. The results were good after a few days. At least on the surface, Ye Beibei had recovered and became carefree again.
But Su Chen could still see that after this incident, the innocent and naive times of the past seemed to be getting further and further away from Ye Beibei.
This was also an indispensable growth experience in life. Su Chen still believed that Ye Beibei could endure it.
Su Chen stayed in the Southern Border for six days.
Two days to accompany his mother, Imperial Consort Hua. Two days to plan the administrative arrangements after Ye Beibei left. In the last two days, Su Chen did not idle. He rushed to produce a large number of spirit tools and pills to equip the fighting strength of the Southern Border cultivators. In addition, he spread many cultivation techniques from the Northern Profound Country.
In the past, there were few experts in the Southern Border because of the suppression of the Demon Race. Any genius expert who had the potential to rise would be targeted by the Demon Race before they could grow. But now that the Demon Race had been subdued, there were no internal or external troubles for the time being. It was a golden time for cultivators.
In addition, with the assistance of the cultivation techniques that Su Chen brought, a group of young genius experts might be born in these few years.
Su Chen could protect the Southern Border for a while, but not forever. If he wanted to develop steadily and prosper, he still needed more young blood.
Six days later, Su Chen bid farewell to Lin Yuerou and the others and began to head north with Ye Beibei.
After traveling at lightning speed, Su Chen returned to Tiangang City after half a day.
"What a big city!"
Although he had been to Eastern Fence Sanctuary before, he had come and gone in a hurry, so Ye Beibei did not observe too carefully. However, when he came to Stellar Sky City this time, Ye Beibei was amazed by the magnificence of this city. Walking on the bustling and bustling streets, he could not help but linger.
"There will be plenty of opportunities to see it in the future. I'll take you to Taiwu Academy first. It's a good place to cultivate."
Ye Beibei nodded.
As soon as he entered Taiwu Courtyard, Su Chen saw Yue Ya 'er riding Jin Xuanwu and taking a stroll among the flowers.
When Yue Ya 'er saw Su Chen return, she immediately patted the Gold Black Tortoise's turtle shell and went forward to welcome him.
Seeing Ye Beibei beside Su Chen, Yue Ya 'er immediately revealed a mischievous smile. "Sir, didn't you go out to travel? Why did you bring back a big sister after a trip? Don't tell me you went to pick up girls?"
Su Chen smiled and said, "This is my old friend, Ye Beibei. She's only 12 years old, even younger than you."
"What?!"
Yue Ya 'er jumped up in fright and hurriedly flew to Ye Beibei's side to size her up a few times. She looked at her perky figure and then looked at her flat washboard. She immediately wanted to cry but had no tears. "You're lying. How can she be younger than me? I don't believe it …"
"Her name is Yue Ya 'er. She's my follower. You can live with her from now on."
Su Chen said to Ye Beibei.
Ye Beibei smiled and nodded. She walked forward and touched Yue Ya 'er's head. "Sister Yue Ya' er, don't cry, don't cry. I'll teach you a way. I guarantee that you'll become as curvy as me."
When Su Chen heard Ye Beibei's words, he felt a little embarrassed.
"Really?"
Yue Ya 'er's face lit up. She immediately held Ye Beibei's arm intimately and chatted with her.
They had just met, but they seemed to have become best friends.
However, this was also good. Ye Beibei had been at a low point these days. It was not bad to have Yue Ya 'er accompany her to relieve her boredom.
After bringing Ye Beibei to the dean to handle the admission procedures, Su Chen led her to the bamboo house and personally cooked a roasted fish. Then, he asked Yue Ya 'er to take her around the valley to familiarize herself with the new environment.
Su Chen took the opportunity to leave the Supreme Wu Courtyard and went to the Liu Family. He asked Liu Yue to buy all kinds of spirit herbs and spirit ores.
The Great Sun Eastern Fence Sword Formation had already been completed. However, it needed sixteen flying swords to complete the sword formation. Su Chen was ready to start refining them.
"Bishop, the things you wanted have been bought. Moreover, many large families in the city have contributed a batch of spirit treasures. Congratulations to bishop for making a name for the Northern Xuan Continent at the Three Pure Technique Conference."
Liu Yue took out a storage ring and gave it to Su Chen. Su Chen opened it and saw that there were at least three hundred spirit herbs and over a thousand tons of spirit ores.
He nodded with satisfaction and praised Liu Yue 'fiercely'.
When he returned to the Supreme Wu Courtyard, the sky was completely dark.
The two lolis had just returned from the hot spring. When Yue Ya 'er saw Su Chen, she immediately showed a look of disdain.
"Sir, you have disappointed me. Bei Bei is only twelve years old!"
Su Chen was stunned. It seemed that Ye Bei Bei had told him about marrying her as the empress again.
She must have done it on purpose!
Su Chen angrily knocked Ye Bei Bei's head and said, "You can't control your little mouth anymore, right? Fine, now that you have left the southern border, you don't need this empress identity anymore. Later, I will write a divorce letter and divorce you, giving you back your freedom."
Ye Bei Bei put her hands on her waist and said arrogantly, "That won't do. It is easy to invite a god but hard to send him away. Although I can't be the empress now, I can still be the bishop's wife. My status and power will be greater than before. If you want to divorce me, you will have to pay a higher price."
"Damn …"
Where did this girl learn all this from? She was practically begging for Su Chen's approval.
Su Chen gritted his teeth and said harshly, "Just you wait. You'll be an adult in four years. When that time comes, it won't be so easy for you to escape from my grasp."
"Hahaha …"
Ye Bei Bei stuck out her tongue at Su Chen and pulled Yue Ya 'er back to the wooden house.
Su Chen shook his head helplessly. He passed through the bamboo house and came to the small forest at the back. He took out all kinds of spirit ores and prepared to start refining.
With Su Chen's level as a Weapon King, refining ordinary low-grade artifacts was not a problem at all.
However, artifacts were not like spirit artifacts. In order to awaken the power of artifacts, one needed to communicate with spirits. One had to let the flying sword give birth to a sword spirit.
His Fish Intestine Sword used the evil spirit's soul as a sword spirit. This could be considered an efficient method.
It just so happened that Su Chen still had a group of ghost servants. He could choose some of the stronger ones from this group of ghost servants to act as sword spirits and increase the efficiency of refining artifacts.
The sword formation's requirements for a single flying sword were not too high. As long as he could gather sixteen flying swords, it would be enough. Furthermore, Su Chen had also obtained the Night Cleaving Sword bestowed by the Holy Lord. This was a high-grade Dao Artifact. Su Chen could completely use the Night Cleaving Sword as the sword master of the sword formation.
"If I can get sixteen flying swords of Dao Artifact quality to form a sword formation, I wonder how terrifying the power will be!"
Su Chen quickly shook his head. It was better to stop dreaming and focus on refining.
