Long Aotian moved his head in the direction of the voice with great difficulty. Then, he saw the most beautiful woman he had ever seen in his life. She was wearing a white hanfu, fully displaying her divine and sacred bearing. Her eyes were cold and indifferent, making every man wanting to do everything to curry her favor, to elicit a simple smile from her, to see any kind of jubilance emanating from them. "Are you a fairy? No, maybe a Goddess?" muttered Long Aotian subconsciously after seeing Fang Lijuan. "You can say that," she replied, still with a cold look on her face. However, Long Aotian did not care about this. The colder she was, the more he wanted to conquer her. Of course Fang Lijuan could see the possessive nature in Long Aotian's eyes, but she did not care about it. Most men that she meets have the same look, so she is used to it by now. "You should not move so quickly, otherwise your wounds will open," warned Fang Lijuan when she saw Long Aotian trying to get out of the bed. However, he refused to listen to her. How could he allow his future wife to see him in such a weak state? As such, Long Aotian wanted to show that he was fine by getting. Unfortunately for him, he was still in a terrible state. Although the space he teleported through was somewhat stable, it was not enough for him to survive unarmed. As such, Long Aotian was almost grinded into tiny dust particles during a chaotic space teleportation. After trying to get up, all the bondages on Long Aotian' suddenly started bleeding, signaling that his wounds were reopened. Fang Lijuan sighed after seeing this, then walked next to him to help him change his bandage. An act which placed a wide grin in the face of Long Aotian. However, Fang Lijuan did not say anything during the entire process. Afterwards, Long Aotian finally listened to her warning and rested properly instead of moving. Meanwhile, Fang Lijuan was sitting in her room looking at the bandages that she had just finished wrapping. "Worthy of a Son of Destiny. Only a few seconds after meeting him, my IQ seemed to have been lowered. When would I, Fang Lijuan, help a man change his bandage?" After saying this, a ruthless look appeared in her eyes, then she smiled cunningly. In the next few days, Fang Lijuan accompanied Long Aotian during his recovery. As such, the two got to know each other pretty well. Although Long Aotian was a little shocked when he discovered that she was an Extraterrestrial Demon, he convinced himself that only a person with such a background can be so beautiful, and worthy of him, a future Great Emperor. Unfortunately, his recovery was going very slow. One day while conversing, Fang Lijuan suddenly sighed and said, "If only this Goddess had a Purple-Leaf Cinnamon, your injuries could be healed in just a few days." "What's that?" "Oh, it's a very rare and precious herb used for healing. Unfortunately, I did not bring any with me from my world." Long Aotian frowned for a while before asking, "Can you describe this herb?" Fang Lijuan had a puzzled look on her face due to Long Aotian's words, but she did not pay much attention to it before describing the Purple-Leaf Cinnamon. However, to the surprise of Fang Lijuan, Long Aotian took out a strange herb from his space ring and handed it to her. She looked at the spiritual herb, then at him for a few times before holding Long Aotian's hand in excitement. "That's the Purple-Leaf Cinnamon? How come you have such a thing? With this medicine, your injuries can heal very quickly!" said Fang Lijuan with a smile on her face. However, immediately afterwards, she realized how bold and audacious her behavior was, so she coughed in embarrassment, then removed her hand from his while blushing red. Meanwhile, Long Aotian was simply lost in Fang Lijuan' smile. To him, her smile was more exuberant than the brightest of suns, more beautiful than the most perfect of flowers created by Heaven and Earth, and more ethereal than a Fairy dancing under the moonlight. Not to mention the smoothness and suppleness of her hands. For a brief moment, he felt that he was holding the entire world, and for these short seconds, nothing else in the vast universe truly mattered. After taking a few seconds to regain her bearing, Fang Lijuan pretended nothing had happened before saying, "With this spiritual herb, I can refine a pill for you that allows you to recover in just a few days." Without waiting for Long Aotian's response, she left the medical room and entered her own private room. However, the shy and happy look on her face was gone, replaced by a cold and indifferent one. She looked at the Purple-Leaf Cinnamon on her hand before muttering to herself, "I can't believe that I have found this extinct herb in this tiny Small Thousand World. Worthy to be this world's Son of Destiny. I just gave it a try without expecting anything, but who knows that he actually had it." After saying that, Fang Lijuan swallowed the entire herb raw, then started cultivating in order to digest it properly. After a few hours, she opened her eyes with excitement. Suddenly, her eyes turned white, showing that she had activated her bloodline. Fang Lijuan immediately became excited as her bloodline backlash from the battle with Li Jun was finally cured. More importantly, she knew that this was the minimum effect of this herb. The main use of this herb is to purify her bloodline, further strengthen her talent and strength. This kind of herb has long been extinct in the Myriad Emperor World. "The ancestors did not deceive me when they say that the Endless Void is full of miracles. Each world--no matter how small--has their own unique trait or characteristic," muttered Fang Lijuan. Then, she looked in the direction of the medical room with a smile on her face before continuing her cultivation. Three days later, Fang Lijuan came to see Long Aotian again. An act which delighted him given how he missed her terribly the past few days. He noticed how Fang Lijuan was more vigorous and lively than before, so he thought that she was happy about the fact that he was going to recuperate as soon as possible. Meanwhile, Fang Lijuan handed Long Aotian one of her remaining Middle Grade Earth Pill that she brought to this trial with her. After taking it, he felt a powerful energy rushing throughout his body, rapidly healing his injuries. Long Aotian was surprised by the efficacy of this pill. He did not expect a random herb that he picked from the forest would be so precious. He thought maybe Fang Lijuan would know what to do with all the herbs he had in his space ring that he could not identify. As such, he took out a pile of spiritual herbs and showed it to her. With a surprise look on her face, Fang Lijuan began to identify some of the herbs she knew, while putting aside the unrecognizable ones to be tested later. After finishing her task, she sighed and told Long Aotian that she did not have the time to refine pills for him as she was in the middle of a war. As such, in order to show his trust in her, he told her she could keep all the materials. An act which made Fang Lijuan further blushed in front of Long Aotian before running out of the medical room with all the materials. Long Aotian looked at this with a smile on his face. He could tell that she was one step closer to subduing the Goddess of his dream. In the meantime that Long Aotian was playing lovey dovey with another woman, his wife Princess Ling Hua had a worried look on her face back at the Savior Coalition. Due to the fact that her husband left her and her family a special talisman, they managed to survive the assassination from the Fate Shadow Guards. However, the same could not be said for the other royal families that rule the Savior Coalition. As such, Princess Ling Hua was forced to take control over the Coalition. Unfortunately, news of the fact that the Coalition Leader had entered the Secret Realm and is now dead spread throughout the nation, resulting in massive panic and chaos. Ling Hua acted swiftly by saying that the Coalition was in fact not dead, just severely injured and recuperating. This act somehow calmed down the people a little, however, before she could breathe a sigh of relief, a bigger problem occurred. The Monarch of Huang Divine Dynasty started attacking their territory instead of focusing on rebuilding. Ling Hua thought that just because Huang Min had also lost the majority of his elite soldiers and officials, he would take some time to recover, but she was wrong. On the contrary, Huang Min became more vicious and cut throat. He recruited countless ordinary people into his army and sent them to battle with little to no training. He seemed determined to use a large number of casualties in order to quickly conquer as much territory as possible. In just a few weeks, more than 5 million people have been killed, with more than 70% coming from the Huang Divine Dynasty. Unfortunately, this method seemed to be working as more and more territories of the Savior Coalition kept falling into the Huang Divine Dynasty's hand.
