My Wife Is The Final Boss-Chapter 914 - 506: The Tide Named Shi Qingjun (Double-Length) (2)

Chapter 914: Chapter 506: The Tide Named Shi Qingjun (Double-Length) (2)

Li Zhibai frowned.

Did she do something wrong?

Shi Qingjun didn’t notice Li Zhibai’s discomfort and was thinking about her student.

Tong Jun?

Although Zhu Pingniang’s "Ping" signifies peace at all times, it’s still somewhat lacking.

Momentarily stunned.

Shi Qingjun suddenly recalled Wen Li.

How could she almost forget this girl?

Indeed, what Wen Li seeks is Chang’an, and she is quite young. Moreover, she unknowingly repaired the defects on her Divine Soul, hinting at limitless potential for the future.

Most importantly, they, the ’old girls,’ have already paved their own paths and don’t need to worry.

Unlike Wen Li, who is still young.

She needs careful cultivation.

Shi Qingjun thought that finding an opportunity to personally mentor Wen Li might be a good deed.

"Sect Leader, do you have any instructions?" Li Zhibai asked quietly.

"Nothing much." Shi Qingjun smiled, picking up the small wine cup beside her, casually saying, "Just a bit too contemplative upon re-entering the world."

"Re-entering the world..." Li Zhibai understood.

Actually, she was not unlike the Sect Leader; she wasn’t always high above. They weren’t born to such high status, so why would they know nothing about the mortal world?

Reality is the mortal world changed too much; perhaps to them, a simple retreat results in a world upheaval... Therefore, asking them to re-enter the world again is filled with unfamiliarity.

If she maintained her previous mindset, it wouldn’t matter; after all, how the mortal world changes, or who rules it, doesn’t concern her. But since she chose to lower her stance and re-enter the world now, adaptation needs time.

The only thing that surprised Li Zhibai was realizing even such an impressive woman as the Sect Leader needs to adapt when re-entering the world.

"The world has really changed a lot." Li Zhibai said with a bit of emotion.

"Has it?" Shi Qingjun pondered and asked, "Who is the current Lord of Qingzhou?"

"..."

Upon hearing this, Li Zhibai’s lashes quivered slightly.

At this moment, Li Zhibai deeply felt the existence of a so-called ’generation gap.’

Lord of Qingzhou?

How many years has it been since she last heard this term?

Digging deep into her memory, she recalled only hearing legends about the Lord in her childhood.

The current ancient texts probably can’t even find this term anymore.

Li Zhibai remained silent for a long time before calmly saying, "Sect Leader, there is no longer a Lord of Qingzhou under heaven."

"Is that so?" Shi Qingjun nodded, seemingly surprised that Qingzhou has lost its Lord.

Li Zhibai could only feel helpless at Shi Qingjun’s reaction.

If her knowledge from entering the Immortal Sect was correct, the lineage that once ruled and enslaved Qingzhou... was uprooted by the Sect Leader.

However, Li Zhibai could understand.

Does she still remember how many times she drank tea?

She can’t remember.

The Sect Leader is the same.

In the dark ages of the past, countless powerful figures of the old era were swallowed whole in the wave named ’Shi Qingjun,’ not even leaving behind a ripple.

The Lord of Qingzhou was just one among them.

The false Lord of Cyan was powerless against the true Qing Jun.

How many remnants of the dark era did the Sect Leader annihilate and bury, such that she wouldn’t remember every single individual.

"Sect Leader, the current world is not unified." Li Zhibai paused and simply explained the current state of the world to Shi Qingjun.

Today’s Qingzhou is divided into many segments, larger and smaller forces occupy territories, feudal lords form alliances, and small countries align with large ones, constantly splitting and merging over countless years. Under such circumstances, the rules and etiquette they knew have long transformed beyond recognition.

People only know their own king; as for the Lord of Qingzhou... it has become a mere legend.

"I see." Shi Qingjun nodded, gaining some understanding.

So that’s why Shi Qingjun feels the need to re-enter the world and have a look, since the world she once knew... is long different from today’s.

Thus, could she really converse with Xu Chang’an or Yun Qian?

After all, compared to her old self, Yun Qian is in her prime.

"Hmm... the Sect should have records from these years." Li Zhibai nodded, suggesting that if the Sect Leader is interested in the historical changes of the world, she can look them over.

"I see." Shi Qingjun said.

Li Zhibai remained silent.

Her current feelings are quite complicated.

Indeed.

Even beings like the Lord once brought shadow upon Qingzhou, but now they are merely legends. And yet, the one who dispelled such shadows stands right before her, holding a wine cup.

This sense of time’s blurriness brought Li Zhibai a feeling of nostalgia and a bit of pondering.

Back then, she was just an ordinary girl; born into an era where the remnants of the old were swept away by Shi Qingjun... So, she enjoyed a world made clear.

Thus, in Li Zhibai’s memories, she was able to live comfortably, even having time for tea parties with friends.

As someone who caught the tail end of Shi Qingjun’s era, listening to the tales of ’Qing Jun’ and ’Immortal Chaoyun’ all the time, how could Li Zhibai not admire this woman?

Probably never did Li Zhibai imagine she’d one day be able to converse this calmly with the Sect Leader about household matters that even baffled herself.

Time... is indeed the most terrifying thing.

Many Seniors were swallowed by the waves, yet women like her... came out.

"..." Shi Qingjun doesn’t know what Li Zhibai is thinking; she just looks at her wine cup.

Shi Qingjun doesn’t care about the past.

She only looks forward, and thoughts on the Lord of Qingzhou were just something brought up upon recollection, provoking some surprise.

If it’s gone, then so be it.

She is currently more concerned with other matters.

Shi Qingjun suddenly asked, "Zhibai, do you understand wine?"

"?"

Li Zhibai was momentarily stunned upon hearing, then filled with helplessness.

Sect Leader.

Isn’t the skip in your topic a bit too large?

From Chang’an to appearance, to entering the world, then to wine... How can there be no discernible connection?

It seems the Sect Leader really says whatever comes to mind.

No, not quite.

Li Zhibai glanced at the wine cup in the Sect Leader’s hand and her faint wine scent, realizing ’wine’ has been present all along, and the Sect Leader’s mention was not just a whim.

"Wine..." Li Zhibai said: "I don’t know if I can be considered knowledgeable..."

Previously, she’d occasionally have fruit wine; nowadays she drinks more tea.

"But, the current world’s wine, I certainly don’t understand." Li Zhibai defined herself.

"Did you drink often before?" Shi Qingjun asked.

"Sort of." Li Zhibai laughed: "I suppose I count as a wealthy young lady, saying this feels a bit embarrassing."

Even as she says she’s embarrassed, her face didn’t blush, nor should it have.

"I didn’t drink much." Shi Qingjun said.

Li Zhibai nodded, understanding.

The Sect Leader, unlike someone leisurely like her, probably couldn’t understand the notion of drinking wine in the past.

Not wanting to appear ’superior’ to the Sect Leader, Li Zhibai said, "Actually, I only drank fruit wine before, and my alcohol tolerance was poor."

Shi Qingjun asked: "How poor?"

Li Zhibai thought for a moment: "Very poor."

As a wealthy young lady, she was probably the one to collapse after a glass; so... really, her alcohol tolerance was quite bad.

Of course, that was in the past.

After cultivation, wine... no longer has the ability to intoxicate her, so she doesn’t remember.

"Alcohol tolerance?" Shi Qingjun thought: "I don’t know my own alcohol tolerance."

Getting drunk... what kind of feeling would it be?

Shi Qingjun was curious; this curiosity was like her love for flowers or wanting to start snacking.

Li Zhibai didn’t respond.

She didn’t know what to say either.

It’s strange talking about alcohol tolerance in the presence of a Qiankun Realm expert.

"I don’t understand wine well, is there any wine that can make me drunk?" Shi Qingjun asked curiously.

"..." Li Zhibai remained silent.
