After the meal, all three of them were a little tipsy from drinking.
Su Mu's alcohol tolerance is far beyond what any of them can match.
Even so, the three of them still had a very enjoyable time drinking.
It went on into the evening, and all three of them received calls from their homes asking what they were doing and why they hadn't returned home yet.
Upon learning that the three men were drinking there, their wives rushed over.
The three wives were initially somewhat resentful, wondering how their husbands could have gotten so drunk.
But when they saw Su Mu, their resentment vanished instantly.
When they were at home, their husbands often talked about Su Mu.
Without Su Mu, they wouldn't be where they are today.
Everything they had at the beginning, and everything they have now, was given to them by Su Mu.
Later, because they couldn't get in touch with Su Mu, the three of them searched for him for several years.
She knew Su Mu's importance in her husband's heart, and she also knew the kindness Su Mu had shown her husband.
Under such circumstances, upon seeing that the person her husband was drinking with was Su Mu, her anger vanished instantly.
After all, neither of them are unreasonable women.
"So it's Brother Su."
The three women recognized Su Mu, and immediately their smiles returned.
They still had a very deep impression of Su Mu.
I met Su Mu once more than ten years ago, and we both thought Su Mu was extremely handsome.
That impression was extremely deep, and now when I see Su Mu Su Mu, she looks exactly the same as she did back then.
They didn't look like their husbands at all; time had turned them into a butcher's knife.
"I'm so sorry, I drank a little too much with them."
Upon seeing the arrival of his brothers' wives, Su Mu immediately stood up and then said something with a hint of apology.
"Not at all. If it's Brother Su, we should have a drink with him too."
The three women smiled upon hearing this, and their demeanor became even more poised and confident.
After sitting down, she carried her slightly drunk husband to the side, covered him with a blanket, and then personally sat down to toast Su Mu.
Su Mu was somewhat surprised; these three women had quite a magnanimous demeanor.
"Just have a drink to show your appreciation. If you keep drinking, no one will be able to take them home."
Su Mu drank a cup with the three women, and after finishing, he said something.
Seeing this, the three women smiled apologetically at Su Mu, "We're so sorry, the three of us women can't drink that much, we can't let Brother Su have his fill."
If her husband and his two wives were all drunk and passed out, then the three women were even worse off.
If he were to actually drink with Su Mu, he would definitely be the one to pass out, without a doubt.
Su Mu simply smiled upon hearing this.
He chatted casually with the three women for a while, then had them lead the three of them back to their respective homes.
"Oh, right, after they wake up, tell them I have something to do and I probably won't be able to reach them for a while, so they don't need to worry."
Su Mu left a message to prevent the three of them from desperately searching for him again.
Upon hearing this, the three women each responded with a sound of understanding, and then got up and left.
Su Mu Su Mu the three burly men downstairs, put them in their cars, and watched them call a designated driver and leave before turning to leave herself.
Security Bureau.
Su Mu originally wanted to go straight back, but considering that Zhou Jianhua still had some things to hand over, she came over instead.
"Are the Spirit Stone on the Floating Island almost used up?"
"I still have some Spirit Stone here, you can use them first."
As Su Mu spoke, he took out the Spirit Stone directly.
I forgot to consider this before; it would be troublesome if these Spirit Stone were used up.
"Actually, we are now capable of developing new aircraft carriers ourselves, but the problem is that the materials used are still inferior to those of Floating Island, so we are reluctant to retire them directly."
Zhou Jianhua glanced at the Spirit Stone beside him and then said something.
Regardless, that's indeed the case.
The Floating Island are made of a special material that can withstand bombardment from many weapons without much problem.
In addition to the array formations set up above, there's also the area of Floating Island itself.
These, taken together, are all advantages.
Su Mu didn't say anything upon hearing this, "Let's see if we can switch the energy source from Spirit Stone to your current energy source; that would be more convenient."
To obtain Spirit Stone, one must go to the Immortal Cultivation Realm, which is somewhat restrictive.
It would be best if it could be replaced.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Jianhua immediately nodded. The array above was set up by Su Mu, and they were not very familiar with arrays.
So in the past, there was no way to change it if you wanted to.
If Su Mu agrees and assists now, it will naturally be effective.
After discussing the Spirit Stone, Zhou Jianhua looked at some documents that had been passed down from above and began to discuss other matters with Su Mu.
Relatively confidential documents are all paper-based and not transmitted via the internet, mainly due to concerns about leaks.
Su Mu looked at the documents on the other person's desk and suddenly felt a headache coming on.
Huaxia has developed to this point, there are still many things related to Su Mu, almost all of which involve various aspects of life.
Su Mu has been missing for ten years now, and all these things have piled up even more.
There are some things that require Su Mu's assistance with, etc.
Many things are related to the Little Dragon Vein.
When Su Mu wasn't around, the Little Dragon Vein just did its own thing, and no one else could find Little Dragon Vein. So, asking the Little Dragon Vein for help was even more impossible.
Regarding this issue, the higher-ups hope that Su Mu can coordinate it.
Regardless, there's a definite hope that the Little Dragon Vein can offer some assistance when Su Mu is away.
There's no need to worry about things on Huaxia mainland; if anything major happens, the Little Dragon Vein will handle it all.
Right now, Huaxia has already started going to Mars and venturing into interstellar space.
If the Little Dragon Vein could assist in advancing to interstellar space, that would be even better.
Su Mu briefly discussed this issue with the other party and then granted them some authority.
For example, they could proactively go to colonized planets and help improve the atmospheric environment.
This will also help them build their base as quickly as possible, so they can start mining and similar businesses.
There were so many documents in front of Zhou Jianhua that Su Mu had to take them from him while talking to him.
If I couldn't help with something, I simply wrote "no," or I wrote a brief reply.
By the time all these things were dealt with simply, most of the day had passed.
Su Mu breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.
"Would you like to stay for dinner?"
Zhou Jianhua checked the time; most of the day had passed, and it was already noon.
He was thinking of having Su Mu stay for lunch or something.
Su Mu stood up and waved his hand, "No, I haven't finished dealing with things in the Haotian Realm. I feel like there's a weight on my heart. I'll go back first."
On the other side of the Haotian Realm, only two Dao Lotus remain.
Su Mu was thinking that he should get the remaining two Dao Lotus to bloom as soon as possible, so that the matter could be considered over.
Moreover, Su Mu had always suspected that Earth might have been invaded in the past.
Unfortunately, while there was the Southern Heavenly Gate as evidence, Su Mu wasn't entirely clear on the overall situation.
To find out the specifics, Su Mu will need to cultivate to the level of a top-tier cultivator, reaching the Three Flowers Gather at the Crown, before he can understand.
Su Mu waved to the other party, then a beam of light enveloped Su Mu, and Su Mu vanished in the next moment.
"It would be great to live forever! Unlike me, I'm already quite old and about to retire."
Watching Su Mu transform into a beam of light and disappear, Zhou Jianhua glanced at his slightly graying hair and said with some emotion.
A moment later, Su Mu returned to the villa and then closed his eyes.
In the Haotian Realm, Su Mu had just opened his eyes when he was stunned for a moment.
A figure appeared before him; it was Ye Weixiao.
Why are you here?
For ten years, Su Mu has been in seclusion, cultivating. Due to the blockade imposed by various sects, no one in the vicinity has come to this place.
No one disturbed Su Mu while he was cultivating, which allowed so many Dao Lotus to bloom smoothly.
The sudden appearance of Ye Weixiao in front of him was somewhat unexpected.
"You're finally awake!"
Seeing that Su Mu had regained consciousness, Ye Weixiao immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
She had been here for several hours, and had been calling out to Su Mu ever since, but Su Mu seemed to have vanished, and there was no sound.
If she hadn't seen that Su Mu's complexion was rosy and that she didn't look like she had fallen at all, she probably would have turned around and left.
"What's wrong?"
Su Mu was somewhat surprised to see the other party's anxious appearance.
The Ye Weixiao I had met before was always extremely calm and composed, handling matters with remarkable composure.
" The Haotian Realm and the Youtian Realm have been fighting for over a year and are on the verge of collapse. They have no other choice but to come to you for help."
Su Mu Dao Lotus Dao Lotus, which, along with the Heavenly Dao, can separate the two realms.
This is one of the uses of the Dao Lotus. Although doing so will deplete the power of the Dao Lotus, it is the only option at this point.
The forces from the Haotian Realm are truly formidable. The Youtian Realm is already suffering from a severe shortage of cultivators, so it's remarkable that they've managed to hold out for a year.
Su Mu was stunned upon hearing this. "The two realms have already intersected?"
He's been in seclusion for so long, so he really doesn't know anything about the outside world.
"The meeting took place a year ago. There have always been many cultivators guarding this place, preventing me from entering. It was only because the Youtian Realm is about to collapse that many of the cultivators here have left, hoping to go to the Youtian Realm to seize something. That's how I was able to enter smoothly."
"Right now, only by using the Dao Lotus to separate the two realms can you hope to save the Youtian Realm."
Ye Weixiao spoke hurriedly to Su Mu.
There's no other way right now; we can't stop them, so we can only hope that Su Mu will step in.
Upon hearing this, Su Mu finally understood that the Dao Lotus had such an effect. No wonder the cultivators of the Haotian Realm wanted to kill him as soon as they heard that he Dao Lotus.
This was because they were worried that their Dao Lotus would ruin their plans.
Su Mu shook his head inwardly.
"Let them hold out a little longer. My Dao Lotus is about to fully open. Once I Three Flowers Gather at the Crown, I should be able to repel the enemy."
Su Mu snapped out of her daze, looked at Ye Weixiao's anxious face, and then spoke.
This direct separation between the two realms was not exactly what Su Mu wanted.
He still wanted to see the changes after his Three Flowers Gather at the Crown. If it really didn't work, he could separate the two realms again.
"Are you about to achieve the Three Flowers Gather at the Crown?"
Ye Weixiao was taken aback upon hearing this; she hadn't expected Su Mu to have already cultivated so many Dao Lotus.
She originally thought that Su Mu would be close to achieving his goal once he had produced two complete Dao Lotus.
After all, the further along the path of the Dao Lotus, the more difficult it becomes to bloom.
Hearing Su Mu say that the Dao Lotus was about to fully open, he was naturally shocked.
Su Mu nodded slightly and casually summoned all his Dao Lotus.
As soon as the three Dao Lotus emerged, strange phenomena arose around them, accompanied by a peculiar fragrance and bursts of Daoist sounds that dazzled the senses.
Truly three Dao Lotus!
The only slight drawback is that the two petals of that Dao Lotus have not yet fully opened.
Upon seeing this, Ye Weixiao's face flushed slightly.
My heart was filled with immense excitement at that moment.
Ancient texts record that the Three Flowers Gather at the Crown can instantly grant immortality!
If Su Mu were to become an immortal, wouldn't the current crisis be easily resolved?
"Don't worry, we will definitely hold out until the moment you reach the Three Flowers Gather at the Crown!"
Ye Weixiao said very solemnly that, at this point, she could only place her hopes on Su Mu.
"Remember the communication talisman. We've been trying to contact you but haven't received a response. We were worried something had happened to you."
After finishing her speech, Ye Weixiao prepared to return to the Youtian Realm to report the latest situation to everyone.
But after thinking about it, he turned back and said something else.
Even with such high hopes, it's still best to keep track of Su Mu's progress at all times.
Upon hearing this, Su Mu suddenly realized that he had even blocked out such sounds when he was comprehending the Dao Scripture.
He took out the communication talisman and saw that it contained various voices from Ye Weixiao.
"Understood. You must stay with me until I emerge from seclusion."
Su Mu could actually smooth out the cracks in front of him and leave right now, but this is a very good place for seclusion, and no one would dare to disturb him.
Since that's the case, Su Mu doesn't want to change locations.
Since the Three Flowers Gather at the Crown hasn't been successfully achieved yet, there's no need to consider such a thing.
Ye Weixiao nodded, turned around, and left.
Seeing this, Su Mu also took out the Dao Scripture and began to carefully study it.
The Dao Lotus beside him had already been taken into Su Mu's hands, and Su Mu lowered his head to carefully comprehend it.
At this moment, the Daoist Dao Scripture in Su Mu's hands had already transformed into the Tao Te Ching.
As Su Mu comprehended the Dao, faint sounds of its principles echoed around him.
Unfortunately, there were no cultivators listening beside Su Mu at the moment.
