Chapter 932: 479 Blood Exchange Like Ants_2

Saying it’s just a town isn’t quite suitable, because the current Seven Profound Town, due to its large population, unique environment, special status among other factors, has now been designated as a separate district from Yu State, called ‘Seven Profound District’, governed by the Seven Profound Sect, and is also the only area in Yu State not under the jurisdiction and dispatch of the North Garrison Government.

The vast Seven Profound District now has a population exceeding ten million.

Chen Mu’s awareness swept through the alleys, passed by the houses, skimmed over the rundown thatched cottages, and also swept by the solemn and austere courtyards of the wealthy.

He saw some clothes-tattered children playing joyfully.

He saw boys in coarse clothes, yet with resolute eyes, practicing under the scorching sun.

He saw farmers, their skin tanned from the sun, cultivating in the rice fields.

He saw within the deep courtyards of the wealthy, rotund merchants enjoying fine wine and cuisine, surrounded by companions.

He saw the various states of millions of lives.

He also saw the mountain streams evaporating under the blazing sun, with wisps of water vapor rising to the heavens, silently melding with ephemeral clouds, brewing a future rain.

He also saw a breeze rising from the horizon, carrying warmth, smoothing the Qi pathways between heaven and earth, gradually turning into a strong wind, whistling by, stirring up a cloud of dust.

He witnessed the changes of heaven and earth, the rotation of the Qiankun Eight Phases.

…

Chen Mu’s gaze did not rest.

He continued forward, continued to ascend, rising to even higher heavens, overlooking the vast land.

Eight hundred li,

Nine hundred li,

One thousand li!

Finally, his will merged with the thousand-li stretch of land, everything within that realm vividly appeared in his vision, he slightly turned his gaze, able to see butterflies fluttering, slightly shifting, and witnessing the lush growth of vegetation.

Celestial Master, soul heart consciousness merges with the thousand-li land, nothing in that realm escapes his sight.

Yet.

Chen Mu’s gaze encompassed the thousand-li land but did not stop; his vision continued to expand into more vast realms.

The state government office of Yu State quietly came into view.

His gaze was like the eye of an Immortal hanging from the heavens, overlooking everything, gradually sweeping over the outer city, eventually encompassing the entire state government office within his sight.

He saw the Fang Family, the Qin Family… saw the six families that once ruled Yu State.

He saw Xu Qingzhao, the senior brother who once guided him, now still holding the position of Yu State Supervisory Envoy in the Inspectorate, flipping through some documents, unaware of Chen Mu’s gaze.

Chen Mu also saw the Yu Family members who accompanied him to Yu State, now years later, this branch of the Yu Family has also flourished in the state government, he saw some children aged four or five, playing energetically in the Yu Family courtyard.

He saw his former residence.

Chen Residence.

There were still people inside this mansion.

Back then, when he arranged for Xu Hongyu and others to reside in the Seven Profound Sect, not all the family servants were taken there, only a few close handmaids, like Xu Hongyu, went. Many servants remained at this residence.

Every courtyard remained clean and tidy.

Chen Mu’s gaze turned inward, he saw his main residence, where someone was meticulously cleaning the dust off tables and chairs, someone he recognized, once one of the earliest handmaids in his residence, Le Er.

Le Er didn’t go to the Seven Profound Sect’s mountain gate to continue serving Xu Hongyu and others, not because he deliberately left her behind, but because Le Er willingly stayed at the residence in the state government, tending the dwelling, which Chen Mu didn’t object to.

The once naive little girl now blossomed into an elegant woman, holding considerable status in the current Chen Residence, almost akin to an inner residence steward, having practiced martial arts alongside Xiao He and others, possessing commendable skills today.

“Sister Le, do you think the master and mistress will ever return?”

Beside Le Er, helping clean the room, a young girl about thirteen or fourteen years old looked at the empty house and couldn’t help but ask softly.

Although a servant at Chen Residence, they knew a little about outside matters, hearing that Chen Mu is now the universally respected Martial Saint, even the Emperor in the Da Xuan Dynasty Court must bow to their master, this was an almost unfathomable status to them, making it hard to believe at first.

“I don’t know.”

Le Er replied softly, not stopping her cleaning actions.

She came to clean daily, ensuring no dust would settle on Chen Mu’s main residence.

As the steward of Chen Residence now, her status was far higher than other servants, even high-ranking Yu State officials treated her politely, despite Chen Mu, the master, and Xu Hongyu, the mistress, having moved away from this residence for years, with Chen Mu’s status like the blazing sun atop the heavens vault, who would dare be disrespectful to Le Er, who had served Chen Mu early on?

Le Er didn’t know if Chen Mu and Xu Hongyu would return, deep down hoping they might not, but no matter what, she would keep the mansion well.

Chen Mu quietly observed this scene in the courtyard.

Then shifted his gaze again, looking towards further heavens.

In the courtyard.

Suddenly, a breeze blew by.

As Le Er was cleaning the tables and chairs, she froze in surprise, turning around startled, because the breeze arrived peculiarly, seemingly appearing out of thin air in the courtyard and inside the mansion.
