I started with Emperor Armor and conquered Infinity.

Chapter 178 Dinner Party

After chatting for a while, Lin Yao, Su Wan, Ye's mother, and Ye Lengxi found an elegant and well-regarded restaurant on the map for a meal.

This restaurant is ornately decorated and bustling with guests, the air filled with the enticing aroma of delicious food.

After being seated, everyone ordered a table full of signature dishes. During the meal, Ye Lengxi displayed an astonishing appetite.

She devoured the dishes in a flash, leaving Lin Yao secretly astonished.

As expected of someone with a strong physique, their appetite is much greater than mine.

During the meal, Lin Yao and Su Wan discussed the current situation again.

As Su Wan savored the unique delicacies on her plate, her taste buds experiencing a wonderful explosion of flavors, she spoke with a solemn expression:

"Although the Ruolan Empire and the Chuyun Empire have temporarily ceased hostilities, the world will likely remain in turmoil if the Golden Goose Empire cannot be defeated as soon as possible."

As a young lady from a prominent family with some connections to top powers, Su Wan's analysis of the situation was insightful and penetrating.

"In fact, the key to solving this problem once and for all lies in dealing with that powerful expert from the Golden Goose Empire who is in the mid-stage and near-late stage of the Nascent Soul Realm."

Although Su Wan is exceptionally talented and has already reached the late stage of the Nascent Soul Realm, the path of cultivation becomes increasingly difficult as one progresses. To cross another small realm and reach the mid or late stage of the Divine Transformation Realm is virtually impossible.

As long as the top power holders in those powerful nations are not harmed or at risk of falling, war could break out at any time.

Take the Longyuan Dynasty and the Golden Goose Empire as an example; the war between the two countries has already entered a white-hot stage.

The Golden Goose Empire's overall strength is now second only to the Dragon Abyss Dynasty. In addition, the powerful figures of the Heavenly Hidden Palace behind it have a considerable grudge against the Heavenly Hidden Palace of the Dragon Abyss Dynasty, and they spare no effort in weakening the strength of the Dragon Abyss Dynasty.

Therefore, although the Longyuan Dynasty was powerful, it faced immense pressure in the face of such a formidable enemy.

Several powerful figures from the royal family rushed to the front lines to resist the enemy's attack.

Hearing the conversation between the two, Ye's mother remained calm; the vicissitudes of life over the years had made her unperturbed by anything.

Ye Lengxi, however, was completely different. Originally, she was only focused on enjoying her meal, but now she became somewhat excited. She even stopped using her chopsticks and stopped stuffing food into her mouth.

“Aunt Su Wan, you’ve only been back to rest for a few days, and now you’re going out to the battlefield again. I don’t think that with your status and strength, you need to risk your life for those royal guys.”

Ye Lengxi said with a face full of complaints.

Su Wan gently shook her head, a warm smile on her face, and patiently explained:

“Leng Xi, this is not about risking my life for them. I am just using this battlefield as a stage to fully demonstrate my abilities and strength, and to continuously improve myself in actual combat.”

"Is this so..."

Ye Lengxi frowned slightly, a hint of doubt still in her eyes. Then, she turned to look at Lin Yao and asked.

"By the way, Xiao Yao, I heard from Aunt Wang that you performed very impressively on the battlefield, but you keep all information about yourself strictly confidential and don't deliberately spread your name. Why is that?"

Faced with this question, Lin Yao did not hide anything and spoke frankly:

"My purpose in going to the battlefield is to integrate what I have learned and continuously improve myself."

As for making a name for myself, that can wait until I become powerful enough.

After all, I am like a tree that stands out in the forest; it will surely be felled by the wind. If I expose myself too early, it will probably bring unnecessary trouble.

"Uh, you already have the strength of the Golden Core Realm, and you're still so cautious. How can I, who just reached the Foundation Establishment Realm and is already thinking of becoming the earliest Foundation Establishment genius in history, bear this?" Ye Lengxi said with some emotion.

At this moment, Ye's mother also spoke up to advise, "Leng Xi, Xiao Yao's approach is the wisest and safest way to act in this cultivation world. You should learn from him."

“Uh…” Ye Lengxi was speechless for a moment.

She hasn't experienced too much of the harshness of reality and has a relatively optimistic view of the world around her.

Little did they know that in the world of cultivation, there were countless cunning and treacherous individuals with ulterior motives.

Moreover, every step involves a contest between one's own strength and the power behind one's back. Before one's talents are fully realized, even with the protection of a powerful force, one is still vulnerable to being schemed against.

Back then, it was precisely because Su Wan was busy breaking through her cultivation level that she had no time to take care of her and her daughter.

Ye's mother was seriously ill, which is why the thieves coveted her and targeted Ye Lengxi's physical constitution.

Later, to protect her daughter, Ye's mother fought desperately against the thieves, which saved Ye Lengxi from disaster.

Although Ye Lengxi eventually succeeded in avenging herself, she lost her closest family member forever, leaving behind an irreparable regret.
