Ning Caichen's Resolve

Several days later.

Li Hao and Piao Miao sat in the living room.

Li Hao sized up the Ethereal Master with a rosy complexion and a smile playing on her lips, and chuckled, "What joyous occasion has happened recently that makes you so happy, your mouth is practically splitting open?"

Piao Miao glared at Li Hao, then couldn't help but laugh, "Something really interesting happened."

Li Hao chuckled and said, "I'd like to hear the details."

After a moment of contemplation, Piao Miao said, "A few days ago, when Peach Blossom Spring Grotto-Heaven had just opened, our country's top leadership contacted the United Nations, intending to discuss the issue of Peach Blossom Spring Grotto-Heaven with countries around the world. But guess what our response was?"

Li Hao said calmly, "Other countries won't be willing to get involved."

Piao Miao nodded and continued, "Yes, countries around the world have expressed their condolences for our country's plight and offered their moral support and understanding. Very few countries are truly willing to participate in the conference. But just two days ago, the Academy of Sciences detected six spatial fluctuations around the world, all of which were outside our territory."

Piao Miao spoke, recalling the expressions on the faces of the various world leaders who had recently flocked to the East for the conference, she couldn't help but let out a cheerful laugh, like the tinkling of silver bells.

Li Hao shook his head and smiled, "I can understand their choice, but you didn't come here personally for such a trivial matter, did you?"

The Piao Miao laughter ceased, and she said seriously, "Someone wants to see you."

Li Hao raised an eyebrow and asked, "Who is it?"

Piao Miao said earnestly, "Wu Zetian of the Great Zhou."

Li Hao looked at Piao Miao in astonishment, somewhat unable to react.

Wu Zetian?

Why would Wu Zetian want to see me?

He hesitated for a moment, then asked, "What time?"

Piao Miao asked in confusion, "Aren't you going to ask why?"

Li Hao shrugged and smiled confidently, "What else could Wu Zetian want to see me for at a time like this? Besides, I'm also very curious about this legendary empress of all time."

Piao Miao rolled her eyes.

No wonder he agreed so readily; he really is a lecherous wolf.

She was slightly annoyed and said, "Wu Zetian will arrive in the capital in seven days; she wants to see you there."

Piao Miao paused slightly, her expression tense, and warned, "Be careful, I have a feeling that Wu Zetian is not a simple person."

Li Hao asked curiously, "Have you seen her before?"

Piao Miao nodded, then said, "I had the honor of meeting Wu Zetian when I was representing the Great Xia on a mission to the Great Zhou some time ago. In short, she is no ordinary person, so you should be careful."

Li Hao smiled confidently.

not simple?

Let alone the fact that gods couldn't possibly exist in this broken world, even if true gods did exist, what would I have to fear?

This is not simple; I, the group admin, have seen far more complicated things than this.

Although Li Hao didn't take Wu Zetian seriously, he was still quite pleased with Piao Miao's reminder.

He invited Piao Miao to stay for lunch at his home before watching her leave.

Time flew by like a white horse galloping past. The whole world was abuzz with excitement over the Peach Blossom Spring Grotto-Heaven, but this did not affect Li Hao's life at all. Every day, besides teasing Xiao Daji, he spent his time chatting and joking with his friends in the Chat Group, occasionally checking on the situation of others.

For example, Wang Lei has already arrived at the Jia Nan Academy and is currently looking for a way to the Jia Nan Academy.

Uncle Nine has already begun his long journey, preparing to break through to a higher realm.

Zhu Youjian had largely stabilized the court and was now addressing the issue of education reform. However, due to his own weak power, it would be difficult to make significant changes in a short period of time. But thanks to the Chat Group, Zhu Youjian was not misled by the civil service system this time. He not only took over the Eastern Depot and the Embroidered Uniform Guard, but also established a special department that answered only to him.

Zhu Youjian did not explicitly state the department's functions, but Li Hao could roughly guess some of them from his confident tone.

Aside from the three others, the one who has changed the most is Ma Xiaoling.

With Tony Stark's financial support, Ma Xiaoling successfully found the Information Box and confirmed that Ning Caichen and she were indeed in the same world at different points in time.

Ma Xiaoling didn't explain what information was stored in the Information Box, and Li Hao didn't pay much attention to it either, because it wasn't the point. The purpose of leaving the Information Box was simply to confirm for Ma Xiaoling that Ning Caichen and she were indeed in the same world at different points in time.

After confirming that Ning Caichen was an ancient figure, Ma Xiaoling remained silent for several days.

No one knew what she was thinking, no one knew what her plans were.

However, this was ultimately a matter between Ma Xiaoling and Ning Caichen, and although others were very curious and quite interested, they couldn't directly interfere.

Chat Group.

Little Fairy Yan Lingji: "Another boring day, nothing to show for it, I can only rely on the Big Brother Group Leader's kisses to get by."

Little Fairy Yan Lingji: "@Omniscient Li, Big Brother Group Leader, mua! (*╯3╰)"

Omniscient Li: "Mua! (*╯3╰)"

Goddess Leona: "You two, that's enough. Have you no shame?"

Little Fairy Yan Lingji: "Waaaaah, Big Brother Group Leader, what's wrong with this old woman? She's so scary! Is this the legendary menopause, or a hormonal imbalance?"

Leona's eyes twitched, and her clear black and white eyes blazed with a blinding light.

The temperature inside the temple rose rapidly, turning it into a furnace, and even the air seemed to distort.

Leona gritted her teeth, quite annoyed.

Damn you Little Yan Lingji, who are you calling menopausal? Who's having a hormonal imbalance?

I, pshaw, pshaw, this goddess is still young!

Omniscient Li: "Perhaps, but my Little Yan Lingji will always be a beautiful and adorable sixteen-year-old, so there's no need to worry about menopause."

Little Fairy Yan Lingji: "(#^.^#) Hehe, the Big Brother Group Leader is so nice."

Tushan Yaya: "(ˉ▽￣~) Tch~~, wake up, silly child, he just wants your body. Men, ha."

Li Hao was speechless.

You've gone too far.

Although this group owner has thought of it, no, this group owner has absolutely never thought of it.

Omniscient Li: "Slander! This is blatant slander!"

Tushan Yaya: "Such a beautiful woman is waiting for your favor, and you didn't even react? Group owner, are you even a man?"

Omniscient Li: "

Li Hao gazed silently at the sky, powerless to refute.

Well, if you say yes, it becomes that you're lusting after someone's body; if you say no, it becomes that you're not a man.

Being a man is really tough.

Invincible Urchin Gu Santong: "Haha, even the group leader has a day when he can't refute what I've said. That's really something."

The Invincible Urchin Gu Santong was muted for one minute by the group owner.

Omniscient Li: "That feels good."

Li Xunhuan: "Laughing and crying. jpg, Brother Gu, you've worked hard."

Xu Xian: "Laughing and crying. jpg, I brought this on myself, there's nothing I can do about it."

Goddess Leona: "Hehe, group admin, huh? What a stingy person."

Ma Xiaoling: "(__)(-)(~O~)...(-)Yawn, I can hear you two arguing so late at night, can't you let me sleep? Don't you know that insomnia is a woman's biggest nightmare? Do you know how much money you have to spend on face masks to recover from a sleep loss?"

Ning Caichen: "Confused. jpg, isn't Miss Ma a cultivator? Does she need to use cosmetics?"

Ma Xiaoling's lips twitched slightly.

Men, you dead straight men!

I was talking about insomnia, and you're asking me if I need to use cosmetics!

Ugh, serves you right for becoming Undead Rider.

Ma Xiaoling cursed under her breath and said irritably, "So what if I'm a cultivator? Who says cultivators can't use cosmetics? And let me tell you, you absolutely cannot mess around with my past self without my permission."

Omniscient Li: "You don't need to worry about this. Since joining the Chat Group, the two of you have transcended the plans of Destiny. Even if Ning Caichen changes the past, you will not be affected by Destiny, nor will you disappear into thin air."

Ma Xiaoling: "But everything I know will change, even my loved ones will disappear."

Li Hao remained silent.

Ma Xiaoling is not wrong on this point. While she may have been able to escape the consequences of the world's changes, it doesn't mean her family members will be so fortunate.

Ning Caichen: "I can cooperate with Miss Ma's actions as much as possible, but I will not stand idly by as to what is about to happen in my time."

For Miss Ma, these are all things that have already happened, insignificant pages of history. But for me, these are tragedies that are about to unfold. If I had no power, I could only await the judgment of Destiny, but now that I have the power to change this, I will absolutely not stand idly by.

Saint said: Cultivate oneself, regulate Qi Family, govern the state, and bring peace to the world.

"I, Ning, presume upon my abilities, yet I am willing to shoulder the responsibility of saving the world, to seek a safe haven for all people, and to wish for peace and tranquility throughout the land, free from the calamities of war."

Ma Xiaoling leaned against the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.

Ever since she realized that Ning Caichen was a person from her own time, she hadn't slept well for several days.

These past few days, she has been asking herself one question.

If you had the ability to change a past tragedy, would you choose to stand idly by?

Through repeated self-questioning and self-doubt, Ma Xiaoling knew what choice she would make.

She will not choose to stand idly by, much less watch tragedy unfold.

But it was precisely because of this that Ma Xiaoling became increasingly unsure how to face Ning Caichen and how to deal with this matter.

Ma Xiaoling: "Sorry, I've been too nervous these past few days."

Ning Caichen: "I understand Miss Ma's concerns, but I also hope that Miss Ma can understand the future I am facing."

Ma Xiaoling sighed.

Perhaps some things were destined from the very beginning.

The others fell silent as the two chatted.

They didn't know how to get involved or how to persuade anyone in this matter. Even Leona and the others, who were known for their mischief, unusually kept a low profile.

Li Hao also did not interfere. Ning Caichen was not Xu Xian; he had his own ideas and beliefs.

He is willing to risk everything for his goal.

This is the difference between Ning Caichen and Xu Xian.

The silence of the Chat Group did not affect the development of the situation in the Sea of the Bitter Sea.

Li Hao soon awaited the day he had agreed upon with Wu Zetian.
