The night was long and sweet; a hundred years of affection still felt too short.

As the morning light streamed through the window into the room, Wang Jiayun groggily sat up in bed, revealing a large expanse of her fair skin.

The flush on her face had not yet faded, adding a unique charm to her exquisite features.

Looking at the young man beside the bed, she didn't know when he had left.

At this moment, he was leisurely practicing his swordsmanship downstairs.

Wang Jiayun faintly heard Ping'er clapping and praising him, her laughter as clear and crisp as silver bells.

After dressing and grooming herself, Wang Jiayun gracefully descended the stairs in a dark blue long dress, her slender and straight legs faintly visible beneath the fabric, her movements gentle and elegant.

She had changed out of her favorite light purple long dress, signaling a new beginning and a farewell to the past.

After a night of replenishment, Wang Jiayun's skin seemed even smoother and fairer than yesterday, her delicate features looking radiant and full of energy, her delicate nose straight and pert, her eyelashes thick and long; even her daughter, Shangguan Ping, couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"Mother, you look so beautiful today!"

Hong Lin's eyes lit up, and she exclaimed: "It seems that Madam Wang had a good rest last night, her face glowing with vitality. Coupled with your already exquisite and beautiful appearance, I even suspect whether you are Ping'er's mother or her older sister."

"Thank you for your compliments."

At the mention of last night, Wang Jiayun's fair face flushed instantly, and her beautiful eyes subtly swept over Chen Changsheng.

She saw him looking at her with a smile, his eyes filled with profound meaning.

Zong Hong, on the other hand, tactfully turned his head away, not daring to stare directly at Madam Wang, fearing that his gaze would cause misunderstanding.

After everyone had breakfast, the carriage set off again.

Chen Changsheng still sat beside Wang Jiayun, without revealing a trace of abnormality on his face; both of them were very calm, as if nothing had happened last night.

In fact, neither of them dared to take last night's actions too seriously.

Wang Jiayun had been enduring tremendous emotional fluctuations recently; as a mother, she didn't want to show her vulnerable side in front of her daughter, so behind her seemingly strong facade, her mind was actually on the verge of collapse.

She needed to release her emotions and needed a comforting harbor.

And the innkeeper's poison just happened to be the catalyst.

After the matter, both Chen Changsheng and Wang Jiayun chose to remain silent, treating last night as a dream.

… …

Several days later.

The carriage arrived at Wangjiang City.

The scale of this city was not comparable to Tianmu City.

From a distance, it resembled a crouching behemoth, exuding an immense aura, the glory of history engraved on every brick, inspiring awe.

"Senior Brother, there is a team of cavalry at the city gate, seemingly watching us," Zong Hong, who was driving the carriage, said in a deep voice.

Chen Changsheng lifted the curtain, and Wang Jiayun, who was beside him, took a closer look and said softly: "Don't worry, it's my second uncle leading a team to meet us."

The Black Market's bounty knew how to use carrier pigeons to transmit messages, and the Wang family naturally had carrier pigeons as well.

Wang Jiayun had sent the detailed situation back to the Wang family while on the road.

A large group of cavalry rapidly approached and stopped on both sides of the carriage. The leader was a middle-aged man with a resolute face, sharp eyes, and a body exuding surging energy. It was clear that he was a soldier who had been through many battles.

"Second Uncle!"

Wang Jiayun waved to the man, a smile blooming on her face like a flower.

Wang Qingjun jumped off his warhorse, walked to the carriage, and said in a deep voice: "You've been wronged. We will definitely make the Shangguan family pay the price for this matter. Let's go, come home with us first."

His gaze shifted to Chen Changsheng.

He found that he couldn't see through the man sitting next to his niece. He looked young and handsome, but his aura was unfathomable.

No wonder he was able to escort his niece unharmed for thousands of miles, easily evading the Black Market's bounty and pursuit.

This person is definitely a top-tier martial artist!

Wang Qingjun sincerely and politely cupped his fist at Chen Changsheng and the others, his voice loud and clear: "I am Wang Qingjun, thank you little friends for escorting us all the way. Welcome to the Wang family of Wangjiang!"

"The pleasantries can be said later. We have been traveling for a month and are now very tired. Please trouble Brother Wang to lead the way into the city and host a welcome feast for us," Chen Changsheng cupped his fist in return and said with a smile.

"Yes, it's all my fault for forgetting the main business for a moment. Please follow my cavalry forward."

Wang Qingjun rode his warhorse at the forefront, leading the way, and the cavalry escorted the carriage in a mighty manner. The guards at the city gate did not dare to stop them and directly allowed them to enter the city.

It was evident that the Wang family held a high position of power within Wangjiang City.

Chen Changsheng's escort this time was the right choice. This city was grand and prosperous, and with the Wang family's care, he believed that his future days would be quite comfortable.

He had accumulated so many cultivation techniques and secrets, as well as the newly acquired alchemy skills, all of which required time to settle down, and the Wang family could provide an excellent environment.

Wang Qingjun arranged for everyone to stay in the Wang family's guest rooms.

Two maids served Chen Changsheng to clean his body and change into expensive brocade clothes, and then brought many delicacies for him to feast on.

Even the happiest days in Tianmu City back then couldn't compare to today's experience.

It was too pleasant!

"Do you know about Madam Wang's matter?" Chen Changsheng suddenly asked.

The two maids' expressions changed slightly, and after hesitating for a while, they both nodded slightly.

Divorce has too much impact on a woman's reputation. Once a woman in this world is divorced, she is a widow and will remain lonely for the rest of her life. No man will marry her.

The news that Madam Wang was abandoned by her husband and was even hunted down by her husband for six thousand miles had long spread throughout the entire Wang family residence.

"Then what does the Wang family plan to do?"

Chen Changsheng wasn't trying to test whether they would gossip, but wanted to know what actions the Wang family would take, so as to judge the Wang family's background and strength.

"Naturally, they will go to the Shangguan family to question them and then capture Shangguan Yu and torture him to death!"

The maid who was massaging Chen Changsheng's legs waved her small fist and said fiercely: "Anyone who dares to offend our Wang family must pay a bloody price. If the Shangguan family cannot give a satisfactory answer, the Wang family will definitely flatten the Shangguan residence!"

Chen Changsheng asked: "Is the Shangguan family also in Wangjiang City?"

The maid who was massaging his shoulders replied: "The direct descendants of the Shangguan family are all in Wangjiang City, and the collateral relatives are in Tianmu City. Shangguan Yu is the only direct descendant in Tianmu City, so his evil deeds directly affect the entire Shangguan family."

"I see."

Chen Changsheng chuckled and said: "However, you are wrong on one point. It is not Shangguan Yu's evil deeds that affected the family, but that he and the family were doing evil together. They have taken so much funding from the Wang family over the years, and now they will probably have to spit it all out."

"This Shangguan family is truly hateful. If it is as the young master says, then our Wang residence will be very busy. Please forgive us for not being able to entertain the young master immediately. Please feel free to instruct Xiaoqing and Xingzhen if you have any needs. After the matter is dealt with, the Wang residence will definitely hold a banquet to thank the young master!"

"It's okay. Just remember to tell me if there is any new news," Chen Changsheng waved his hand, letting Xiaoqing and Xingzhen leave the room.
