Four hours later.
The turbulent waves and violent storms gradually dissipated.
The Water Moon Heavenly Pavilion returned to its usual tranquility.
On the waterside platform, the setting sun shone brilliantly. Wang Shouzhe, draped in his robes, relaxed in his chair with eyes half shut, seemingly resting. He was casually playing with an archaic Jade Pendant in his hands.
A moment later.
Liu Ruolan carried a pot of "snow crystal rice, raw-cooked porridge", gently saying, "This is a blood nourishing porridge that I personally made for my husband. You've worked hard over the past few months."
The rice was superior snow crystal spirit rice that only grew in rare ice spiritual veins. From sowing to harvest, a full three years were required, making it extremely nutritious with body nourishing properties due to its long growth cycle.
