Chapter 797
The capital city was right in front of their eyes, and they could see numerous divine arts practitioners expanding the city by renovating the city walls . The divine arts practitioners built the city wall to be very high, and numerous divine arts practitioners marked runes of defense with beast’s blood on the city walls .

Qin Mu came to the bottom of the city and asked around . The one in charge of renovating the city was a disciple of Heavenly Works Hall, and he said, “Not long ago, there was a half-god that transformed into a divine beast to attack the capital city, destroying a section of the city wall . As a result, Imperial Preceptor ordered us to expand the capital city and reinforce the walls, making them higher . Cult Master, please take a look at these runes that were designed by Formation Hall, are they feasible?”
Qin Mu received the formation runes from him and examined them in detail . He saw that the formation was very intricate, and the design also had quite the sense of beauty . He said with a smile, “Not bad . Formation Hall’s attainments in formation skills have already surpassed mine, I will still have to study for a period of time in order to catch up . ”
“Cult Master overpraises us . ”
That disciple said with a smile, “Spear God has been teaching formation skills in all parts of the empire recently . Saint Woodcutter also sorted out numerous formation skills of the Founding Emperor Era and passed them to him . Spear God then taught them to us, and we benefited greatly . ”
Blind was the Spear God he was talking about .
While Qin Mu had roamed around, Blind, Deaf, and the rest had been teaching what they had learned at the schools in all parts of the empire . In addition to Saint Woodcutter, Heavenly Teacher Fisherman, Di Yiyue, and the rest imparting the knowledge to them, it was how Eternal Peace had developed at such a godly pace .
According to the normal turn of events, Eternal Peace would have definitely prospered, but with the Primordial Realm breaking out of the seal, its resurface had resulted in Eternal Peace being broken up into pieces .
And as of now, Eternal Peace’s control over its original territories was very low .
Not long later, they arrived at Imperial Preceptor’s manor . Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor had just returned from the palace and was rather exhausted, so he was resting . Imperial Preceptor’s wife went to get him and said to Qin Mu, “My husband has been out quelling the rebellions, and just as he returned, the emperor called him to the imperial palace for dozens of days . He is truly exhausted . ”
Qin Mu said apologetically, “I’m really sorry for disturbing junior brother’s rest . ”
Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor said, “Second senior brother is courteous . The empire is in danger now, and that’s what I should do . The emperor has also lost weight and is only a bag of bones now . If the ruler is like that, what about me? You never visit without a reason, so there must be something urgent this time . ”
Qin Mu hesitated for a moment and expressed his intention for coming . “I’m here to consult you on how to have a baby . ”
Imperial Preceptor’s wife originally thought he wanted to talk about serious matters, so she blushed when she heard what Qin Mu said . She hurriedly got up to leave, but she suddenly turned back and led Gongsun Yan out as well . As she was leaving, she said with a smile, “Let the two men talk, we sisters can have a little chat . ”
Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor waited for them to leave before scolding furiously, “The empire is in danger, and you still have the mood to have a baby! Qin Mu, to think I respected you as my senior brother, how can you be so absurd!”

Qin Mu hurriedly explained himself, “I have already had Martial Arts Heavenly Teacher destroy my Divine Bridge Divine Treasure because I wanted to reopen the Divine Bridge Divine Treasure and find a way for the people of Eternal Peace to solve the issue of having a broken divine bridge once and for all . The reason why I’m thinking of having a child is that I want to see if the seventh divine treasure that I open up can be inherited by our descendants and the later generation . If it can be inherited, the issue of the people of Eternal Peace having broken divine bridges can be completely solved . ”
“I’ve wronged you . ”
Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor rose and bowed to the ground . He said sincerely, “I still thought that second senior brother was licentious, never did I expect second senior brother to be the one truly thinking of the people of the world, carrying the weight of the world with righteousness etched into your bones! You took the initiative to destroy your Divine Bridge Divine Treasure, but I don’t have that boldness of yours! I’m sincerely convinced that you are worthy of being my senior brother! I thank you on behalf of the people of the world!”
Qin Mu hurriedly pulled him up and said with a smile, “I don’t deserve this . Junior brother, so how do I have a child?”
Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor was originally very serious, but now his face suddenly blushed, and he coughed repeatedly . He seemed to be troubled .
Qin Mu said suspiciously, “You know, but you don’t want to tell me, you’re indeed hiding it for yourself!”
“It’s not hiding it for myself, it’s just not easy to say it out loud . ”
Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor hurriedly said, “Even primary school scholars know . There are classes regarding this in the primary schools, just head over there and listen . ”
Qin Mu shook his head and said, “I have never been to primary school . When I left the Great Ruins, I went straight to the Imperial College . ”
Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor frowned . He looked left and right before saying with a low voice, “Let me go fetch something, you will understand after seeing it . ” After he said that, he left in a hurry .
After a moment, he came back in a fluster and took out a book from his sleeve . He stuffed it into Qin Mu’s hands and said, “I also didn’t know about this originally, and I didn’t know much about the affairs of men and women . After the emperor got me to marry, I was also at a loss, and so the emperor gave me this book . After reading it, I understood . Take it, it will definitely solve your doubts . ”
Qin Mu looked at the cover of the book, and on it were these few words, . When he flipped it open to take a look, inside were pictures instead, pictures of man and woman . The pictures could even move, and it showed that the path of painting was extremely superior . Not only had the person painted them vividly, but thepainterhad also achieved the first realm of the painting path as said by Scholar, he was truly extraordinary .
Qin Mu took a look and his face flushed . He hurriedly covered up the book . “How can it be like this? How shameful! I don’t want to have a child any more!”
Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor said, “I also thought it was very shameful at first and even dirty, that it was an insult to sage . Afterward, when I tried it, it wasn’t bad and was actually rather interesting . ”

Qin Mu felt a pain in his heart and said in disdain, “Junior brother, you have fallen!”
Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor argued, saying, “This is the natural order of a human relationship, how have I fallen? If you don’t want it, then return to me! I’m not lending it to you anymore . ”
Qin Mu was about to return it to him when he suddenly took it back . “Let me take a look first, I need to judge these kinds of actions… Eh? This painting path seems familiar, who is the author of Romantic Dairy of the Capital City?”
His suspicions grew as he looked . He flipped to the title page and then to the end page, but he couldn’t find the signature .
“These brush strokes, this kind of attainment in the painting path…”
Qin Mu’s fury couldn’t be contained as he stuttered, “G-G-Grandpa Deaf, have you fallen to such an extent?”
Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor coughed repeatedly . “It’s indeed the work of Heavenly Art Saint . Otherwise, I wouldn’t have concealed it . The emperor asked me for it back numerous times, and I said I had lost it, so I didn’t return it to him . This is the only copy, Heavenly Art Saint only drew this one book, and it was when he was poor and in dire straits . Now that he’s wealthy, he would be unwilling to draw another one . You need to return this to me after you’re done . ”
Qin Mu flipped through the book with a red face . His heart thumped furiously, and he hurriedly returned the Romantic Dairy of the Capital City .
Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor carefully flattened the pages of the book one by one and stored it properly before asking, “I’ve forgotten to ask you, which girl do you plan to have a child with?”
Qin Mu’s mind was blown, and he stood there silently and in a daze . After a moment, he tried to say, “I haven’t thought about this problem . My mind has been on the seventh divine treasure during the past few months, and I’ve thought of twenty-six kinds of seventh divine treasure . In these eight months, I’ve also sorted out twenty-six methods and plan to give all of them a try . My original plan was to have a child for each successful method . Now that I know it’s not that simple, I’ll need to find twenty-six women…”
“Get out!”
Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor’s face darkened, and he raised his finger to point at the door of the Imperial Preceptor’s manor .
Qin Mu mumbled, “I’m your senior brother, how can you speak to me like this?”
“Ah Fu, Ah Fu, come quickly and throw this rascal out!”

Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor said angrily, “How licentious, how are you worthy of being my second senior brother!”
Qin Mu hurriedly said, “Let’s just put the matter of having a child aside first . I have many things to do, and I truly have no time for children, it’s also very troublesome . There’s still one more thing I want to ask you about . Look at the halo behind my head, this is Mother Earth’s blessing . Mother Earth wants me to revive her, so she blessed me . She even gave me an Earth Aeon Dao Fruit . Otherwise, I wouldn’t have reached the Life and Death Realm so quickly . Mother Earth’s revival is no small matter . She’s using these two items to supervise my movements, so she will find me again sooner or later . Help me take a look and see how we can break down this blessing from Mother Earth . ”
Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor’s face softened, and he carefully examined the halo behind his head . He had a grim expression as he looked over and over again . He paced to and fro after a long time and kept muttering non-stop .
Suddenly, a sword light caused the whole room to shake as he stabbed at Qin Mu .
Qin Mu stood there without moving, and he could only hear sounds of collision ringing out non-stop . Imperial Preceptor stabbed out countless swords in that instant, and every sword was wonderful . He stabbed precisely on his halo, and the tip of every sword light stabbed on the runes of the halo!
In the next instant, his vertical and horizontal sword lights shook the entire courtyard, and it was as graceful as swimming dragons .
However, the halo behind Qin Mu’s head burst forth with all kinds of colorful lights, dying the halo in bright colors . The halo swirled continuously to block his sword lights .
Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor pulled back his sword, and the halo behind Qin Mu’s head also stopped swirling .
“Mother Earth’s blessing is extremely strong, it’s also a method of protection . If you are able to execute the power of the blessing, it would be easy for you to block the attacks of a true god . Even heavenly gods might not be able to do anything to you . ”
Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor checked his divine sword and found small cracks on the tip of his sword . “This kind of blessing is very useful, are you sure you want to erase it?”
Qin Mu nodded his head and said, “The so-called blessing can also be a curse . Mother Earth is now heavily injured by Heavenly Teacher Zi Xi, but she will make a comeback sooner or later . If she captures me, I will have no choice but to revive her . After she’s revived, wiping out Eternal Peace, Crimson Light, and Founding Emperor would be a piece of cake!”
Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor was silent for a long time . “In that case, I will need Teacher Woodcutter and all the wise people in Eternal Peace to come . I also need Granny Si, she must be here . She is skilled in the runes of magnetism . They are all outside, so they need some time to hurry here . ”
Qin Mu’s spirit stirred slightly, and he said, “Is Martial Arts Heavenly Teacher in the capital city?”
“Martial Arts Heavenly Teacher had originally gone to South Sea to talk with Crimson Light Son of God, he was overawed and wouldn’t rebel for the moment . Not long ago, he went to the prairie and said he was visiting Mahakala . Judging by the time, he should be back soon . ”
Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor sighed and said, “There are also abnormal movements in the bottom of the East Sea, and the worlds in the sky above also have abnormal movements . The North Sea, the ice plains, and all kinds of ruins in the territory of Eternal Peace are also stirring . We have already broken contact with the Great Ruins and West Earth, and the teleportation gate constructed several months ago can at most protect twenty to thirty of our more important cities . There are so many matters to take care of, and I hate that I can’t clone a billion of myself . ”
Qin Mu’s heart stirred, and he said, “Why don’t you turn the capital city into a god city floating in the sky? Turning the capital city into a god city can firstly be intimidation, and secondly, it can boost the confidence of the people of Eternal Peace . ”
Eternal Peace Imperial preceptor said, “I was over with His Majesty to discuss building a god city . It’s just that the treasury is empty, and now that trade is being cut off, we don’t have that many divine metals and divine materials to build a city in the sky . ”
Qin Mu said with a smile, “There are numerous ruins that have appeared in the territory of Eternal Peace, and there are quite a number of weapons inside . Maybe they could be smelted to construct the city in the sky . ”
Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor said with a smile, “You don’t have to care about these troublesome matters, the most crucial thing now is to open the seventh divine treasure! You don’t have a house in the capital city, right? Why don’t you just stay at my place? When everyone is here, we can help solve your Mother Earth’s blessing . ”
Qin Mu shook his head and said, “I have a few houses in the capital city . Ling’er manages my finances, and she said the housing price in the capital city would rise drastically, so she bought several houses . It will still be somewhat inconvenient for me to stay here, you don’t have much money either . Even food and clothing are a problem for you . ”
Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor stared with his eyes wide open .
Qin Mu bade farewell and called over Celestial Venerable Yu, who was secretly eating the water qilin’s spirit pills . He then called Gongsun Yan over as well .
Gongsun hurriedly ran over and whispered, “Have you asked how to conceive a child?”
Qin Mu’s face turned slightly red, and he nodded his head gently .
Gongsun Yan’s voice went even softer, as though she was afraid others could hear her . “Actually, I know as well, you could have just asked me . When our flowers bloom, you can just transfer your pollen to me, and a child will be born . ”
Qin Mu was startled .
Gongsun Yan stirred the water in Imperial Preceptor’s manor with her horsetail whisk and lifted it up to flick some water on Qin Mu’s head . She said seriously, “You have to water yourself more so you can grow faster . When my flowers bloom, your flowers will also bloom, and in that case, you can use your male flower to pollinate my female flowers . ”
Qin Mu was stupefied, and he only came back to his senses after a moment . He said in a hurry, “Fatty Dragon, are you still not going? Lan Yutian, are you still eating? When Saintly King handed you to me, you were light and skinny, but now you are like this . He will definitely blame me . He handed me a Celestial Venerable Yu, and I’m returning him a Fatty Lan!”
