"Celestial Purity Fire!"

In the Kitchen God's Department, Lady Honghua, through the connection formed by the Soul Fusion Seal, felt an extremely intense divine flame merge into her Divine Dao Golden Body, immediately causing a mysterious change in the Fire God Seal deep within her brow.

She naturally mastered this unique divine flame of the First Layer.

In the Divine Office, her gaze shifted, and she performed the Vermilion Bird Fire Control Technique, causing dozens of orange-red flames to flicker out, instantly landing on several pieces of Gold Obsidian in front of the Divine Office, immediately melting them into golden liquid.

"What a high temperature!"

Observing this change, Lady Honghua's expression was somewhat shaken.

Gold Obsidian is a common material used by the gods to construct the Divine Office. This material isn't particularly precious, its only advantage is its tenacity, making it extremely difficult to destroy. As a building material, it's both aesthetically pleasing and can withstand the ravages of time without losing its luster.

Her inherent Stove Fire was also considered strong.

It had tremendous potential.

However, compared to the Celestial Purity Fire at this stage, its power still fell far short.

At this moment, within Marchioness Dingnan's body, Yuan Zhao's soul also faintly sensed a tremor. That wisp of Celestial Purity Fire fused into her foundation, instilling in her a sense of terrifying danger.

It seemed that with a single thought from Lady Honghua, she could be obliterated.

Unlike the Stove Fire mastered by Lady Honghua.

This Celestial Purity Fire contained a marvelous power of destruction. Just a trace of it seeping out could obliterate her soul.

Yuan Zhao felt a sense of despair at this moment. Her unwilling voice echoed out.

"I have to admit, you truly have incredible luck, gaining another advantage, but you didn't come this far on your own!"

Yuan Zhao remained unconvinced.

Lady Honghua's expression was indifferent.

"Having someone guide you from behind is my opportunity; sometimes, opportunities and blessings are also a part of one's strength!"

Lady Honghua's expression remained indifferent. After a period of decisive action, some of the softness in her gradually disappeared, replaced by confidence and composure.

"Now, your value has diminished greatly. What do you think I should do with you?"

Yuan Zhao fell silent.

"What do you want?"

She reflected on her situation and couldn't find any remaining value within herself. Everything she knew, Lady Honghua also knew, and after a period of adjustment, Lady Honghua could completely control everything about this Marchioness Dingnan.

Even if Marquis Dingnan and his wife came, they might not be able to notice anything unusual about this mother.

"You need not worry. You still have some value. If you are willing to submit to this deity, this deity can still offer you an opportunity!"

Lady Honghua was not afraid of being countered by Yuan Zhao.

Having weathered some storms, Lady Honghua had gained considerable confidence.

Moreover, she was still growing while listening to Zhang Jian's teachings.

As long as she continued to grow, even someone as ambitious as Yuan Zhao could only be at peace and subdue herself.

...

Observatory Platform

Not long after Zhang Jian returned, Dongxiao Daoist came knocking, indirectly expressing a keen interest in Zhang Yi and Zhang Zhao.

However, Dongxiao Daoist was also a wise person. He didn't mention it directly at first, but instead inquired if Zhang Yi and Zhang Zhao had the inclination to embark on the path of cultivation.

Dongxiao Daoist was also worried about being rejected.

Given Zhang Jian's current influence, if he wanted to have both sons apprenticed under a Primordial Spirit Master, it was not impossible.

If Jingming Daoist were in Haojing City, there might be a chance, but his stature was still somewhat lacking.

Looking at Dongxiao Daoist who had come to call, Zhang Jian frowned slightly.

He had met a few of Dongxiao Daoist's apprentices and they were only passable.

He shook his head and said.

"Elder Dongxiao's kind intentions are appreciated, but Brother Yi already has a path. When he turns ten, a great master will come to guide him into his teachings. As for Brother Zhao, my wife and I prefer to have him raised nearby. My wife is just a commoner, and we cherish family joy more!"

There was a hint of amusement in Zhang Jian's eyes: "Perhaps Brother Zhao might have the chance to embark on the path of cultivation in the future, but that is for later, and we shall let it be as fate dictates!"

"I see!"

Dongxiao Daoist gently stroked his beard, though he still harbored some hopes, prompting him to press further.

"Mr. Zhang, please pardon my presumptuousness, but might I ask which Immortal Realm Young Master Zhang Da has entered?"

Zhang Jian smiled slightly and said, "Tongshan Dao Lineage!"

Dongxiao Daoist's expression was shocked, and then he solemnly said, "So it is the Saint King Dao Lineage!"

Upon hearing this, Dongxiao Daoist immediately dismissed the idea of trying to make the other party yield.

Tongshan is a Hidden Dao Lineage, and although its influence wasn't in Daqian, Dongxiao Daoist had heard from the Dong Shen Ancestor that this was an Immortal Sect Dao Lineage not to be provoked lightly.

However, Dongxiao Daoist did not feel entirely disappointed.

From Zhang Jian's words, his second son Zhang Zhao still didn't have a place, and the Dong Shen Temple might still have a chance to bring him into their fold.

After Dongxiao Daoist left the Observatory Platform, he met Dong Jue Daoist, who was approaching with gifts, at the base of the Observatory Platform.

"Fourth Senior Brother, you are..."

Dongxiao Daoist's eyes also noticed Dong Jue Daoist. His mind raced, but he chose not to reveal his findings.

In his heart, he still held out hope and didn't want such a good opportunity to fall into the hands of others.

Dongxiao Daoist gently stroked his beard and smiled, "It's nothing, just seeking an audience with Mr. Zhang to listen to the Path of the Saints and Sages!"

"Sixth Junior Sister, why all these large parcels, what are you preparing for?"

Dong Jue Daoist's face showed a look of generosity as she mentioned the previous incident at the Three-Eyed Exorcism Well where she was ambushed by a Four Symbols Corpse Demon.
