Chapter 486 - Arrival

“Senior Li, is that you?” Bai Lingmiao reached out to touch the blob before her, and the blob coalesced into that familiar face. Bai Lingmiao smiled at the sight. It seemed she still needed to get used to this ability.

“Miaomiao, can you see now? Can you really see me?!” Li Huowang exclaimed, staring into her eyes.

“I don’t know if this counts as seeing, but... at least I can do the things that I could do before. At least I’m not a burden anymore,” Bai Lingmiao said. She stood up and spun around to savor the miracle.

In addition to seeing the external appearances of everything around her, she could even see inside some of them. Her vision was especially clear whenever she focused on living organisms. For example, she could clearly “see” the bugs and ants on the short trees outside the courtyard.

Bai Lingmiao soon reveled in this new-found feeling. Her "vision" was strange, but it was much better than being blind.

“Senior Li, I can see, I really can see! Thank you so much!” Bai Lingmiao exclaimed with a joyful look.

When Li Huowang saw her smile, he felt that all the hardships that he had gone through so far were worth it. Through his efforts, the conditions of the people around him were improving gradually.

"All right, rest," Li Huowang said while staring at Bai Lingmiao, who was still turning around like a white butterfly."You're going to feel dizzy if you keep spinning.”

Li Huowang opened the two roast geese wrapped in lotus leaves on the table. “Come! Let’s celebrate your healed eyes with roast goose today! I heard that they roast their geese here with lychee wood; the taste is apparently great, too.

"It’s one of the specialty dishes of the capital.”

“Dad, I want some, too.”

“Sure, go get yourself a bowl and chopsticks.”

The family of three ate with relish until they were interrupted by knocking on the door.

“Are you there, Er Jiu? It’s me, Lian Zhibei.”

Li Huowang frowned upon hearing the familiar voice. Wasn’t she supposed to pick up her mother and bring her here? What is she trying to do?

Li Huowang pushed open the door, and the middle-aged plump woman wasted no time, immediately going to the point. “I was actually just hesitant earlier. Actually, it's not necessary for me to bring my mother over here. I can break the connection between your wife and the Immortal families here. Give me that jade plate and consider it done.”

Li Huowang was about to say something when he heard footsteps behind him.

“Senior Li, she's actually here? How about inviting her to eat roast goose with us?” Bai Lingmiao said in a good-natured way.

Meanwhile, the Second Deity whispered something into her ears.

“Why do you want me to go in? Isn’t she a guest?” asked Bai Lingmiao.

“Miaomiao, you go in first. It's definitely not something bad,” Li Huowang said.

Since Li Huowang had said the same thing as the Second Deity, Bai Lingmiao could only nod and turn around to leave.

“You're done talking with them? If so, let’s get started!” Lian Zhibei exclaimed. She raised her foot and was about to walk into the house but was stopped by Li Huowang's hand. Li Huowang stared quietly at the Second Deity. After a long time, he asked, “You know what this means to you, right?”

"I know. I'll be able to merge with Miaomiao as soon as the connection between her and the Immortal families is severed.” The Second Deity's voice echoed from under the red veil.

The Second Deity was not lying, but Li Huowang’s feelings toward the Second Deity were complicated.

Should I treat her as her own individual or as a part of Bai Lingmiao? If I do the former, wouldn't allowing her to merge with Bai Lingmiao be the same as killing her? Li Huowang thought.

Just then, the Second Deity spoke once again. “If her connection with the Immortal families is not severed, wouldn't it be like harboring a danger that might erupt at any moment? Would you want to live like that?

"I'm sure Miaomiao would disagree, but I’ll persuade her, so don't worry.”

“Come on, let's do it. How do you want it to happen? Hey, respond. You're driving me crazy!” Lian Zhibei chimed in, sounding worried that Li Huowang would change his mind.

“Let’s go. This way,” the Second Deity said, allowing Lian Zhibei into the house.

“All right. Hey, just wait here. I’ll make sure your wife is ready,” Lian Zhibei said, following the Second Deity into the house.

The oil lamp in the room was lit, and the light illuminated Bai Lingmiao's nervous face. It was her first time seeing Lian Zhibei, but she still felt uncomfortable being alone with a stranger.

“Miss, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and take off your clothes.”

“Ah? I... have to... take my clothes off?” Bai Lingmiao muttered hesitantly. Li Huowang had told her to follow Lian Zhibei's instructions, but she still felt hesitant to show her birthday suit to a stranger.

“Of course, don't be embarrassed. We’re all women here. Hurry up.”

“Oh...” Bai Lingmiao muttered. Then, she started unbuttoning her clothes. And that was when Lian Zhibei rushed to her side and leaned closer to her ear, whispering, “The curtain toward the jade peak hides the night snow behind the curtain. The blue water grows the long autumn moss...”

Bai Lingmiao was startled by Lian Zhibei's whisper, and she took several steps backward, muttering, “What... what was that?”

“You don’t know? Really?” Lian Zhibei asked excitedly.

“Know what?” Li Huowang’s voice echoed from behind Lian Zhibei, and the latter's heart trembled upon hearing it. The next moment, she turned around and cast an impatient look at Li Huowang. "Did I not tell you to wait outside? Why did you follow us here? We're still in the middle of preparations."

“She’s my wife, so is there something wrong with me helping her undress? Why must I avoid her?” LI Huowang retorted.

“She's fine, but I need to undress, too. What, am I your wife?” Lian Zhibei asked, taking off her shirt, which revealed her bulging belly wrapped in yellow inner wear.

Li Huowang stared deeply at Lian Zhibei and enunciated every single word as he said, “You. Better. Not. Cause. Any. Unnecessary. Trouble!”

With that, Li Huowang turned to the shy Bai Lingmiao and said, “I’ll be outside. I can hear everything that happens inside, so just call out my name if there are any issues.”

“Okay..”

Li Huowang opened the door and pulled Li Sui into the room. “Keep an eye on that chubby woman. Bite her if she does anything strange!”

“Yes, Dad.”

Li Huowang finally left the room. Lian Zhibei's ambiguous words just now definitely weren't part of the so-called "preparations." Judging from her tone and demeanor earlier, those words seemed more like some kind of code.

It seemed that Lian Zhibei had ulterior motives. If it weren’t for the fact that she actually had a way to help Bai Lingmiao get rid of the Immortal families, he wouldn’t have allowed her to have much contact with Bai Lingmiao.

Li Huowang waited for quite a while before the two finally emerged from the room. Lian Zhibei was carrying a big bundle of something in her arms, and Li Huowang had no idea where she had stashed that earlier.

Of course, Li Huowang couldn't care less, as his full attention was on Bai Lingmiao. Bai Lingmiao was wearing nothing except for a yellow paper inner wear.

Bai Lingmiao’s figure was as white as a mutton tallow, and many different crooked and twisted characters were drawn with red cinnabar on her figure. The white and red colors intertwined, creating a bizarre but strangely enchanting image.
