Chapter 656 Strict Teacher

Xie Chang'an then accompanied her to the Xuanyuan Palace.

The young dragon was still asleep, and the Rejuvenating Vine was taking good care of him, diligently feeding him spiritual liquid every day and wiping his body with water from the spiritual lake.

Jiang Li patted the little azure dragon's head and whispered in his ear, "Egg, wake up quickly. Your sister has formed an alliance with the five divine beasts and is preparing to conquer the world for you. How can you, the little dragon emperor, not step forward to take charge?"

Xie Chang'an smiled and said, "I think his aura is getting stronger and stronger. I estimate he will wake up soon."

Jiang Li gestured to the little green dragon's body with her hand and sighed, "My master said that when a true dragon is born, its body is as big as a calf, and its roar shakes the heavens..."

She held his little fleshy thing in her palm, saying, "I estimate his testicles will need to grow to the size of a calf before he fully recovers."

Xie Chang'an looked at the small green dragon, which was now no thicker than a wrist, and was speechless.

A long way to go!

Jiang Li instructed Hui Chun Teng to guard the egg, and then returned to the Liuli Palace with Xie Chang'an.

After a long day, she was exhausted.

Back at the Glazed Palace, Xie Chang'an looked at the little girl who had changed into her nightgown, scurried into bed, and opened her big, round eyes, waiting for him to tell her a story. He couldn't help but smile slightly.

"Little Tanuki, don't you have any homework? Cultivation is like rowing against the current; if you don't advance, you fall behind. No matter how busy you are, you should at least practice your cultivation techniques, right?"

If I don't cultivate properly, when will I be able to advance to the Golden Core stage?

He was afraid he wouldn't be able to hold out until that day...

Jiang Li pulled the blanket over her head and muttered, "You scared me to death these past two days! How could I concentrate on cultivation? In the end, it's all your fault!"

Even the cave dwelling of a dignified Nascent Soul True Monarch could be wiped out in one fell swoop!

Xie Chang'an's heart softened immediately, and he touched her head guiltily: "It's my fault, I failed to protect you properly."

He added, "Now that you are in the Demon Realm, which is fraught with danger, you must improve your strength as soon as possible. Starting tomorrow, I will supervise your cultivation every day."

Jiang Li was dumbfounded. Had she found a Daoist partner or gained a master?

She muttered, "My master said that I advanced too quickly and that I shouldn't rush into cultivation recently. He told me to take some time to consolidate my strength."

Xie Chang'an smiled: "No rush to cultivate. You have to learn all the arts of cultivation, right? I remember you can draw talismans. What about spells? You have dual spiritual roots of water and wood. How many spells of these two elements have you learned?"

"You can also learn about formations, alchemy, and weapon crafting. At least you should know a little bit about them so you won't be deceived. You have a wood spirit root, so you're also suitable for growing spirit plants..."

"Stop! Stop!"

Jiang Li pulled the blanket off her head, looking weak and listless. "I'll study! I'll study, okay? We can do it tomorrow. I'm so sleepy, my eyelids are drooping!"

Xie Chang'an's lips curled up slightly. Who was it that had wide eyes just now, waiting for him to tell a story, and now their eyelids are drooping?

He tucked her in, gently leaned down, and kissed her soft cheek, saying softly, "Okay, you can sleep now. I'll stay in the other room and watch over you."

Jiang Li blushed. Why did this person kiss her so often?

This made her heart race like a deer; how could she possibly sleep?

Xie Chang'an chuckled softly, turned and went to the outer room, found a futon to sit on, and closed his eyes to meditate.

That night, Jiang Li tossed and turned for a long time before finally drifting off to sleep.

The next day, just as dawn was breaking, Xie Chang'an came to wake her up.

"Little fox, it's time to get up and practice your skills!"

Jiang Li closed her eyes, wrapped herself in the blanket like a silkworm cocoon, and remained motionless.

Xie Chang'an chuckled softly and whispered in her ear, "If you don't get up, I'll kiss you..."

Jiang Li sat up abruptly, her face flushed red: "You lecher!"

"I am your husband."

Xie Chang'an couldn't help but chuckle, gently brushing away the stray hairs from her forehead. "Get up quickly, let me help you comb and style your hair."

Jiang Li was so surprised that she forgot her embarrassment. "You can do this?"

"When you were in the mortal realm, I personally took care of everything for you, from washing and changing clothes to combing and styling your hair."

Jiang Li blushed: "Am I not a prince? Doesn't anyone serve me?"

Xie Chang'an chuckled softly, "There are pleasures in the boudoir that surpass even the joy of painting eyebrows. My lady will understand in the future."

Jiang Li was confused, but she vaguely felt that he was "teasing" her. She stomped her foot and said angrily, "If you keep talking nonsense, I won't talk to you anymore!"

Xie Chang'an's smile deepened as he hugged his wife and coaxed, "Alright, alright, I won't tell you. What kind of hairstyle do you want?"

Jiang Li sat in front of the dressing table, watching him skillfully take out a jade comb and gently comb her satin-like long hair.

A pair of sword-wielding hands deftly moved through her hair like butterflies flitting among flowers, quickly tying it into a beautiful double bun.

She then opened the makeup box, took out a few pearl flowers, and adorned her hair.

"These beads were made by my own hands; they are actually array flags."

Xie Chang'an said, "Once you learn the formation, you will be able to form a formation in an instant using these formation flags."

Jiang Li's eyes sparkled: "Brother Chang'an, you can also forge weapons?"

"Well, I know a little about alchemy, weapon crafting, talismans, and formations. Thanks to the little fox, I've also learned a bit about beast taming."

Xie Chang'an smiled and said, "In return for your kindness, I will teach you all these skills in the future. If you want to learn swordsmanship, I will definitely teach you everything I know."

Jiang Li's little face scrunched up. "Isn't it said that sword cultivators are single-minded and only cultivate one sword?"

Xie Chang'an chuckled: "Like you, who advances too quickly, my master had me learn these 'unorthodox methods'."

This is the trouble of geniuses!

While others worried that their lifespan would run out and they would be unable to ascend to immortality, they chose to do the opposite.

Because his cultivation progressed too quickly, he feared his foundation would become unstable, so he had to slow down, hone his skills, and devote himself to studying various arts such as alchemy, weapon crafting, talismans, and formations.

Jiang Li thought that she could be carefree for a while after getting rid of her master's supervision, but she didn't expect that after getting married, she would have a "strict teacher"!

Under Xie Chang'an's relentless supervision, she had to do her morning prayers and complete several cycles of circulation before she was allowed to have breakfast.

Fortunately, Xie Chang'an did not ask her to fast. He said she was still young and needed to grow properly.

It must be said that Xie Chang'an's breakfast was delicious. He made fish porridge and fish ball soup with fish caught from Linghu Lake, and served it with a small dish of mixed bamboo shoots. Jiang Li ate it with a big smile.

After finishing her breakfast, Jiang Li began writing a letter to True Lord Mingxuan.

They are still trapped in the Demon Emperor's Spirit-Locking Maze, and communication talismans cannot be used. They can only write letters and have Taixu deliver them.

Jiang Li wrote: "Master, your disciple is well, don't worry! Your disciple plans to establish a Beast Taming Sect base in the Demon Realm to expand the sect's territory. Please send your senior brothers and sisters to help me as soon as possible!"

"Furthermore, I have formed an alliance with the five clans of Phoenix, Qilin, White Tiger, Black Tortoise, and Vermilion Bird, intending to dethrone Tengshe from the position of Demon Emperor and protect Dandan's ascension to the throne. Master, would you like to take charge of this? This is not only about conquering the world for Dandan, but also for our sect! I will make the Demon Realm our Beast Taming Sect's backyard!"

"And what about my senior master, how will you reward me for such a great contribution?"
