To be honest, even Xiao Mo had not expected to achieve results like these.
After all, the Qi Kingdom was nowhere near the Han Dynasty in national strength.
Yet they really had repelled the Han Dynasty's assault.
Both sides ceased hostilities.
They returned to Haotian City in the Qi Kingdom.
Han Qiuling sought out Xiao Mo. "It's time to help you break through to One-Star Dou Zong."
"But before you break through to One-Star Dou Zong, you still have some trials to complete."
Han Qiuling spoke to Xiao Mo.
"Trials?"
"What trials?"
Xiao Mo asked Han Qiuling.
"Leading troops into battle."
"Temperament is also extremely important on the path of cultivation."
"You already have the foundation needed to advance to Dou Zong."
"We must seize this opportunity."
Han Qiuling looked into Xiao Mo's eyes as she spoke.
Hearing her words, Xiao Mo said, "I have no problem with that."
"But what about Wang Miaojun?"
"She's still at the peak of Eight-Star Dou Emperor."
"Shouldn't we help raise her cultivation too?"
Han Qiuling said, "Let's resolve your issue first."
"We'll raise your cultivation to One-Star Dou Zong first."
Xiao Mo nodded. "Then when do we leave?"
"There's no rush. Rest in the Qi Kingdom for a while first."
"Giving things time to settle is also very important."
Han Qiuling spoke to Xiao Mo.
"In any case, I'll follow all your arrangements, Master."
Xiao Mo looked at Han Qiuling as he spoke.
They settled into a stable life in the Qi Kingdom.
Xiao Mo and Wang Miaojun took up residence in the City Lord's Residence in Haotian City.
Wang Miaojun hugged Xiao Mo and sighed. "I wonder when we'll be able to return to the Chu Kingdom."
"I'm a little homesick."
Xiao Mo knew Wang Miaojun did not like their current life.
