In Heaven Dou City, Su Ling's days gradually settled into a peaceful routine, though he still occasionally received private letters from Qian Renxue.
Her letters described the latest developments on the front lines, her feelings, her moods, and even asked how Su Ling was doing.
Fortunately, Su Ling knew that Xue Qinghe was Qian Renxue. Otherwise, he would not have dared accept those messages. There were so many suggestive undertones that even Qian Renxue herself might not have noticed them while writing.
Things were going smoothly for Qian Renxue. Within a month, she would completely conquer the Los Duchy.
Meanwhile, in Heaven Dou City...
Six of the seven Sacred Pillar guardians had arrived. Along the way, they had investigated Su Ling and ultimately concluded that their only way to deal with him was to target the goddesses around him.
Yet after many consecutive days, they still had not found an opportunity to strike.
Not one of the goddesses close to Su Ling had left his residence.
Originally, Hai Ling'er had loved wandering around Heaven Dou City. After all, this was her first visit to the human world on land. She had dragged the goddesses around Su Ling out shopping for over half a month straight.
There had been only one result: everyone had grown sick of shopping. Even Hai Ling'er herself no longer wanted to go, and she began cultivating in seclusion at home.
That was the main reason none of the goddesses had left the residence lately. The six Sacred Pillar guardians could only watch from a distance, not daring to approach too closely.
After all, Su Ling was no weakling. Even together, the six of them might not defeat him. Besides, Bo Saixi was still in his hands. They could not beat the grass and startle the snake.
