Hao Ren and Han Lingshi appeared in the sky. The young lady was gazing at the side profile of her husband and calmly she asked, "Can you tell me, what is the big idea?" The young man turned to look back at her and said, "Meimei just stepped into the peak of Dao Integration Realm. Now we have fifteen Dao Integration Realm experts. The border is secure. The staff will manage the autonomous administration. The Crescent Moon Kingdom is not a place that needs much governance. The Empress is going to be the guardian and the preserver for the people. The administration will be handled by the lower levels and the people themselves. If there is any discrepancy, then you come into play." Han Lingshi raised her eyebrow and asked, "Wait a second, is this why you called Xiao Mei over?" Hao Ren nodded and said, "Playing shopkeeper is an art that I mastered very early. Also, do not think that I am exploiting Xiao Mei, she is having the time of her life. All her equipment is custom made by the in-house forging masters. She loves this place, always creating something. That is why we will be able to have it easy when it comes to administration." Han Lingshi nodded while she lay in his arms and asked, "However, we have a lot of departments to organize and a lot of people to recruit." Hao Ren smiled, "Do not worry, it will be taken care of within a few days. Let me show you around the world. Also, you need to upgrade the realm." Han Lingshi frowned and said, "I feel like I have reached the bottle neck." The young man nodded and said, "I will help you, do not worry." Then he waved his hand and a huge wooden ship appeared before them. Han Lingshi was surprised and Hao Ren said, "We will be touring the provinces so instead of the quick travels, it would be nice if the people could see us. The sky of the kingdom looks brilliant at nights." Han Lingshi nodded as they boarded the vessel. The young lady never doubted what Hao Ren said. They settled in the ship but the next moment, Yang and Yin appeared on the deck. Hao Ren asked as he let Han Lingshi down, "What are you two doing here?" Yin replied, "Big Sister Mei sent us over, she said you will need someone to attend to you." Hao Ren asked, "Yang would be enough, then what are you doing here?" Yin smiled brilliantly and said, "I am here to supervise Yang." Hao Ren was at a loss for words, he sighed and turned around to go back inside the vessel. Han Lingshi chuckled, she found this situation so amusing that she could not help herself. This pair of spirit beast companion and master were always bickering like children. Yin looked at Yang who was lost in a daze and said, "Get to work, I will handle the wheel." Yin said, "The tribulation is coming, should I put on the barriers?" The young man shook his head and said, "Charge the spirit fuel cells from the discharging energy and save the money. If anyone dared to make a mess, I will turn them into meat paste and feed the war horses." Yin nodded, she turned on the array to harvest spiritual energy and gather them inside a gelatin like substance that Xiao Mei created. This gelatin had no special quality but it was a mixture of herb pastes and potion which had really good spiritual energy retention capabilities. It was so good, that it could transform into low level spirit stones. It saved money for the empire and made them even richer as this thing could be used over and over again for hundred times, before it was turned into fertilizers. Hao Ren got this from the system reward and researched this thing with Xiao Mei. Han Lingshi opened her eyes and there was a sparkle of purple inside them. She stood up from the spot and instinctively controlled the spiritual energy to propel her up in the void. The sky was covered with crimson lightning bolts. Yang said, "Big sister is a talent." Hao Ren nodded and replied, "The last bolt will have a part of gold to it. She is a heavenly prodigy and I am riding her coattails." Yang shook his head and said, "Young Master, you are already so far ahead of her, why do you say that you are riding her coattails?" Hao Ren patted his head and said, "That is a secret." *Ding: Host, are you feeling bad that your wife is slightly more talented than you?* Hao Ren was surprised and remarked, "You are taking initiative to converse with me? Well, no, I am not feeling bad or anything like that. However, I am stating a fact. Had I not met her, would I have gained this strength?" *Ding: True, congratulations on clearing the small hidden mission. You are rewarded with the fourth piece of the Crescent Moon Kingdom Seal.* Hao Ren was shocked and asked, "Isn't that a bit too sudden? Is it even a task?" *Ding: Host, not every tribulation or test has to be the lightning strike. Sometimes, a simple acknowledgement helps a long way. With this task, as soon as the coronation is completed, you will finish the goal series. All the best.* Hao Ren had no idea what to say, all though what the system said was true, but he still could not believe that the final piece was in his grasp now. He raised his head to look at the young lady who bathed in the red lightning and grew stronger. The journey of their lives has just begun.
