"You better watch your words and don't offend the Third Brother and his wife!" he warned her before walking away.

Wu Huning had already learned about her father-in-law's plan to move out tonight and stay with her third brother-in-law from her husband. She knew her husband wanted the house, so she didn't dare to ruin his plan.

Meanwhile, in the neighboring village, a group of men were sneaking into one of the houses.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around due to autumn planting, they ransacked the house and took away everything. When they left, only some old furniture and a bit of food in the kitchen was left.

After entering the mountains, they took a detour and headed to the county town through Xie Village's road. The stolen items and money would be packed and sent to Yunnan City tonight.

A few hours later, they reached the black market in the town and entered the grain shop through the back door. Putting down the things, one of them asked, "Brother Xiao He, why did our boss suddenly ask us to rob a villager's house?"

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Xiao He replied, "I heard from my father that these items belong to a friend of our boss' second brother. Those people robbed him first, so we just took back his things and are sending them to him."

Hearing this, another said, "If I had known those villagers were robbers, I would have taken everything. Let them taste their own medicine!"

Xiao He laughed and said, "If you did that, then you would be the same as them. We are only taking back what they stole. As for the rest, our boss said not to touch it."

"Alright, we should pack these things and get them to the train station. The train leaves in five hours," he reminded them.

"Okay."

While Xiao He and his group were busy, Lu Jueyu had already returned home while Dong Huang and her friends went to the river to catch shrimp.

After returning, she went into her space to take a nap before washing the dishes and checking the east wing's greenhouse.

The small greenhouse was planted with ginseng and spiritual herbs. Unlike other crops, these required a much higher standard of care, so she made it a point to check on them every two or three days.

When she entered the greenhouse, she immediately noticed that the air felt different from outside. Taking a deep breath, she felt that the air here was somewhat similar to the one in her space.

Squatting beside the soil, she saw that the ginseng was growing faster than expected, and the spiritual herbs were thriving.

Since she was alone, she watered the soil with lake water from her space to ensure that the spiritual energy was enough to sustain the herbs and ginseng. While she was watering, she suddenly heard a faint voice.

"...you are doing!"

Startled, Lu Jueyu frowned and looked around. After a while, she didn't see anyone. Thinking she might be tired and hallucinating, she was about to brush it off—until she heard a familiar voice, one she had missed for a long time.

"Old man, that's my daughter's world. Why can't I help her and her children? Even if that little girl wasn't born to my daughter, she has the fate of my Lu family. So she can be counted as my granddaughter!"

The moment she heard this, Lu Jueyu was stunned. Her eyes widened, turning red with emotion. Her hands trembled as she muttered softly, "Dad?"

As if unaware that she could hear them, she heard an old voice say angrily, "Bastard Lu, do you know what you did almost made me lose my life!"

"Because of your intervention, that mountain has now become a blessed land. It's one thing if your daughter was insensible since she knew nothing. But how could you, a deity who knows the rules, do something like that? Aiyo!"

"Siming, you are injured. Don't move around. I don't understand why those old geezers are so panicked. If it becomes a blessed land, then so be it. It's not like because of that one blessed land the world will be destroyed," the younger voice said with clear dissatisfaction.

The old man let out a hiss and said, "Lu Zhishen, that world's Heavenly Dao stated that there will be no spiritual energy there for the exchange of the mortal's advance knowledge. What you did created the imbalance of the world!"

"If you keep this up, you will lose your position as one of the star heroes ah! Are you really willing to risk your soul just for your daughter in that mortal world?"

"Siming, once a master, always a father. Not to mention, she and I share the same blood. Even if her current mortal body has no blood connection with me, her soul was born from mine. She carries my family's fate," Lu Zhishen replied stubbornly, clearly unhappy with Siming's words.

"Bullshit! You are a lonely star—where does this 'family fate' come from? Aiyo, my back!"

"I told you not to move around, and you are still hopping like this. I think you can live another hundred thousand years without a problem," Lu Zhishen said helplessly.

"It's my sin—I owe you a debt. Now I'm paying for it with my life!" Siming lamented.

"It's not that serious. Even if those old geezers want to remove me from my post, they still have to wait until the Heavenly Monarch returns. It's not their turn to punish me," Lu Zhishen said casually.

Siming let out a long sigh and said with worries clear in his voice, "It's been almost fifty thousand years since the Heavenly Monarch disappeared. If not for the divinations showing His Majesty is still alive, the Three Realms would have fallen into chaos by now for losing the ruler."

"Don't worry. His Majesty will return soon. For now, just focus on healing and leave the matters of that world to me. I promise I won't be reckless again or use Star Dew to help my daughter."
