"Little Liangzi, do you know why there are so many people here?"

The word "Little Liangzi" made Zhuge Liang's face darken from his previous smile. He loathed this nickname, but since it was Yi Shuihan who called him that, he had no choice but to express his dissatisfaction with his eyes.

"Why are your eyes so wide open? Do you have some kind of eye disease? You're so young and you've already developed this problem. Let me take a look, I guarantee I can cure you in no time."

"Husband, please stop bullying Xiao Liang."

Cai Yan spoke, and Yi Shuihan stopped teasing Zhuge Liang and waited for his reply.

"The reason we are here is because of the day of thunder a month ago. Uncle Nanhua predicted that this place was the location of the incident and a place with great opportunities. So everyone came to try their luck, but we didn't get any opportunities. However, we found that the concentration here is much higher than in other places, and it seems easier to cultivate here. I am also here to look for the so-called opportunities."

The day of thunder was the Han Dynasty's name for that day when there was only thunder in the sky but no lightning, which is quite fitting.

"Nanhua has this trick up his sleeve? How come we never noticed before? Were they hiding their true abilities all along? That old man!"

The matter finally became clear, which surprised Yi Shuihan, especially since Nan Hua had actually calculated that this was the location of the incident. Although it wasn't entirely accurate, it was very close.

"You're lucky to have found me. Follow me in a bit, and your opportunity will come."

It was Zhuge Liang's good fortune to have met him. Yi Shuihan thought for a moment and decided to take him to broaden his horizons later, since not everyone could witness divine punishment.

Zhuge Liang was taken aback by Yi Shuihan's words, but then became excited. Since Yi Shuihan said so, his opportunity had truly arrived. Yi Shuihan was a true immortal, and even the slightest leak of something would be enough to benefit him immensely.

Chapter 628, Team Expansion

"Aren't we going over there?"

Qiao Ying looked at Zhou Yu, who seemed hesitant, and said softly.

"Um, okay, let's go."

Zhou Yu calmed his nerves and walked towards Yi Shuihan and the others.

"Husband, they've followed us."

Cai Yan gestured towards the Qiao sisters and the others with her lip, while the other women used their eyes to exert pressure.

With a wry smile, Yi Shuihan said to Zhuge Liang, "Go and deal with him."

"no problem!"

Zhuge Liang readily agreed.

When Zhou Yu saw Zhuge Liang walking towards him, he stopped in his tracks.

"Is he really the Imperial Advisor?"

"Not bad!"

Upon receiving a positive response, Zhou Yu felt his heart, which had calmed down, begin to race again.

For a moment, Zhou Yu didn't know what to say and fell silent. He wasn't stupid; he had already guessed to some extent why Zhuge Liang had come.

"Are you talking about that handsome guy when you say the imperial advisor? He really does have that title!"

Qiao Wan said in surprise, she had previously thought that Yi Shuihan was just joking, and at this moment she did not realize what the Grand Preceptor represented.

"Meet the two ladies."

"Meet Mr. Wolong!"

"You know me?"

"Of course, you're a big celebrity."

"Is that right?"

Because of Zhuge Liang's reputation for talent, the two Qiao sisters were naturally close to him. After all, in those days, beautiful women loved talented men, and so their relationship grew much closer in just a few words.

"What's the relationship between that older sister and handsome brother over there?"

Qiao Wan pointed at Cai Yan and the others and asked curiously.

"Handsome brother?"

Zhuge Liang didn't react for a moment, but when he realized Qiao Wan was referring to Yi Shuihan, he obediently replied...

"They are all Brother Yi's wives."

The Marriage Law has been in effect for several years. While a monogamous system is impossible to implement, it does stipulate that all women who marry men are equal, with no distinction between principal wife and concubine; all can be called wives.

It has to be said that many women were very grateful to Yi Shuihan because of this big man, while men hated him to the core. This is because the marriage law stipulates that all divorces must result in the equal division of family property. Of course, since it is not a monogamous system, the equal division is based on the total property divided by the total number of spouses.

Because the family property is to be divided equally, women's status has improved considerably. After all, if they are treated badly, their spouses can file for divorce and leave with the money.

"He's actually a womanizer! I thought he was a good person. I was so wrong about him!"

Qiao Wan was very angry that Cai Yan and the others were all Yi Shuihan's wives.

"Actually, I misjudged him too! He behaved perfectly well in Luoyang, but he's only been out here for a short time and he's already found so many wives."

Zhuge Liang could only think these words in his heart and dared not say them out loud. After all, he had already cultivated and knew that once one's cultivation reached a certain level, even if one spoke in a low voice, one would still be heard, and it would be embarrassing if one were heard.

Zhuge Liang actually misunderstood Yi Shuihan. If he could really find so many women so quickly, he must be a stud.

The conversation continued, mostly with Qiao Wan and the others asking questions and Zhuge Liang answering. Although Zhuge Liang was highly intelligent and had a high EQ, he was rather lacking in the art of flirting.

"Xiao Liang, it's time to go!"

After a while, Cai Yan came over.

"Okay! See you next time then."

"Beautiful older sister! What are you going to do? Can we come along?"

Qiao Wan's address of "beautiful big sister" pleased Cai Yan greatly. Although she had heard many compliments and was almost tired of them, Cai Yan still felt very happy when these words came from a fellow beautiful young woman.

"I can't make that decision myself, but I can ask around for you."

"Thank you, beautiful older sister."

Zhuge Liang looked at Qiao Wan, who kept calling her "pretty big sister," with a strange expression. Qiao Wan noticed his gaze and made a face at him.

Zhou Yu remained silent. Logically, Qiao Wan's actions were inappropriate, but he didn't want to stop her. To be honest, he was curious about what Yi Shuihan and the others were going to do.

"Little sister! Let's not go and join the fun."

Qiao Ying was the most normal, and what she said was the most reasonable.

However, Qiao Wan ignored her sister and looked at Cai Yan expectantly.

Cai Yan smiled upon seeing this, clearly pleased with Qiao Wan's lively and adorable personality.

Cai Yan had spoken to Yi Shuihan about this, and Yi Shuihan immediately agreed, so three more people were added to the team.

Led by Yi Shuihan, Yi Shuihan and his group arrived at the spatial node.

"Stopped?"

Zhou Yu had been silently observing everything from within the ranks, feeling that Yi Shuihan and the others' actions were quite mysterious.

What Zhou Yu didn't notice was that at this moment, no one around them was looking at them, as if they didn't exist at all.

Yi Shuihan pointed a finger at the void in front of him, and the void rippled like the surface of water, and a vortex appeared in front of him.

Yi Shuihan spent a lot of effort to temporarily open the spatial node, so that ordinary people could pass through smoothly.

"Wow! How amazing! What is this? Is it magic?"

Qiao Wan exclaimed in surprise, noting that the way she looked at Yi Shuihan was completely different now.

"Okay, let's go in!"

Yi Shuihan made a gentlemanly gesture of invitation.

Cai Yan and the others had great faith in Yi Shuihan, so they naturally stepped into the vortex without hesitation, as did Zhuge Liang.

Everyone else entered the vortex one after another, leaving only Yi Shuihan, Zhou Yu, and the two Qiao sisters.

"Don't be afraid, everything will be alright."

Qiao Wan appeared very nervous in front of the whirlpool and hesitated to step into it.

"Sister, let's go together!"

She looked to her older sister for help.

"You!"

Qiao Ying smiled slightly, took Qiao Wan's hand, and the two mustered their courage to enter the vortex.

"I didn't know you were the Imperial Advisor before! I shouldn't have attacked you, and I hope you can forgive me."

"You think I care? Besides, I was also in the wrong. Let's go!"

Since Zhou Yu had already admitted his mistake, Yi Shuihan naturally wouldn't hold it against him. Besides, he wasn't wrong. In fact, Zhou Yu hadn't done anything wrong. Under those circumstances, most people would have intervened, so Zhou Yu was already considered quite lenient.

Chapter 629, Quota Allocation

"True Lord"

"My Lord!"

"You've arrived, True Lord."

"..."

As Yi Shuihan entered the cave of the Blackwater True Lord, a group of people immediately surrounded him, greeting him warmly.

"Has everyone been waiting long?"

"It is our honor to be able to wait for the True Lord."

"We actually just arrived."

This time, there were significantly more people from the Kunxu Realm than last time, including many new faces.

"Who are they? They all look strange."

Qiao Wan stood beside Cai Yan and the other women, curiously observing the people in the Kunxu Secret Realm. As an ordinary person, she couldn't tell that these people were all experts, but she could vaguely sense their extraordinary nature. For example, she had just made eye contact with a certain demonic expert, which felt quite frightening.

Compared to the Three Kingdoms world, the people of Kunxu wear robes and the like, which makes them seem very unconventional. Moreover, due to their cultivation techniques, many of them have very intimidating appearances. One or two is fine, but when many of them are like that, it's hard not to find them strange when they gather together.

"Amazing! These people are all far more powerful than me. Even my master and uncles are not as strong as them. Where did they come from?"

Zhuge Liang stared intently at the two opposing forces, the righteous and the demonic, who were showing goodwill towards Yi Shuihan, and was deeply alarmed.

Like Zhuge Liang, Zhou Yu was also nervous, his palms sweating.

"They're from the Kunxu Secret Realm. The Kunxu Secret Realm is..."

Cai Yan whispered to Qiao Wan about the origins of the righteous and demonic paths, while Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu listened intently from the side.

As Cai Yan recounted her story, they became increasingly shocked, until finally they were too stunned to speak.

Good heavens! These people who are currying favor with the Imperial Preceptor are actually all experts in the Tribulation Transcending stage. They are beings who can become immortals with just one more step. They are all demigods!

Any one of these people could probably sweep across the entire world!

After learning about the Kunxu Secret Realm and the concept of the Tribulation Transcending Stage, and comparing the behavior of these people in front of Yi Shuihan, Zhou Yu and the others felt even greater respect for Yi Shuihan, the Imperial Advisor.

"So the handsome guy is our Imperial Advisor! Oh my god! I actually met the Imperial Advisor and even spoke with him."

"No, I must get the Imperial Advisor's autograph later."

Upon learning Yi Shuihan's identity, Xiao Qiao became completely excited. Her eyes shone brightly as she looked at Yi Shuihan, practically sparkling with stars. She was another fervent fan.

Not only her, but even her sister Da Qiao looked at Yi Shuihan with the same fascination.

"Everyone lined up and handed in their materials one by one. After the True Lord confirmed them, he would select the people to help."

At Yi Shuihan's signal, the Fierce Fox and his group began to maintain order. The big shots of the Kunxu Secret Realm obediently lined up, and even those demons who would kill at the slightest provocation dared not disobey in the slightest.

Each person had prepared a special storage magic item, and each person handed a storage magic item, such as a ring or a bracelet, to Yi Shuihan. In just a short while, Yi Shuihan possessed most of the rare treasures in the entire Kunxu Realm.

Fortunately, Yi Shuihan was no ordinary person. As long as he scanned the area with his spiritual power, he could get a general idea of ​​its value and estimate it. Otherwise, it would have been really difficult to handle.

"Good, I have felt everyone's sincerity. Today I will select 3 people to help them overcome their tribulations. Don't worry if you are not selected. At the same time next month, I will select 3 more people, and the month after that. You still have a chance."

There are a total of 9 in 3 months, which is slightly more than Yi Shuihan estimated. After all, he didn't know if the transformation of the supernatural power would become more difficult again, so he simply made it more so that even if there were any changes, it would be enough for the transformation of the supernatural power.

As for the subordinates he recruited last time, it's not impossible that Yi Shuihan would help them overcome the heavenly punishment based on their performance.

There were nine spots available, but the number of Tribulation Stage cultivators present was far more than nine. Just from the righteous path alone, there were 15 Tribulation Stage cultivators present, and the demonic path had even more, with 17.

It's safe to say that nine spots are far from enough, but Yi Shuihan doesn't intend to help everyone break through; he's not exactly a pushover.

The reason for dividing it into three months is simple: to keep these people collecting treasures and squeeze out the remaining value.
