Chapter 1726: New Xumi Realm, Nishan Academy
While attacking the Ming Cult, Su Mingzhe unexpectedly gained three daughters: Yang Buhui, Xiao Zhao, and Yin Li.

Among them, the charming Yang Buhui and the lovely Xiao Zhao were both enjoyed by Su Mingzhe in time.

As for Yin Li, because of practicing 'Thousand Spiders and Ten Thousand Poisonous Hands', a lot of her skin was ulcerated and she even had a lot of abscesses, which is how she managed to keep her innocence.

However, as Su Mingzhe helped her eliminate toxins from her body, her skin gradually regained its moisture and smoothness.

In the blink of an eye, another month passed.

Deep winter is approaching.

This day.

Su Mingzhe helped Yin Li eliminate the last bit of toxins in her body, and without giving Yin Li a chance to refuse, he stayed overnight in her bedroom.

Seeing that the man was about to take a shortcut, Yin Li couldn't help but say with tears in her beautiful eyes:

"Your Majesty, even if you get my body, you can't get my heart. Why are you doing this?"

Seeing the woman's miserable expression, Su Mingzhe couldn't bear it. However, looking at the woman's delicate appearance, he couldn't help but harden his mind:
"I heard that women's hearts are soft and can develop feelings over time. I want to give it a try."

……

The fourth year of the Great Xia Era, the fifth month of summer.

Princess Xinyang, the seventh daughter born to Tie Yuxiang, got married.

After the wedding.

Su Mingzhe, taking advantage of the alcohol, came to the hot spring deep in the harem and played happily with the concubines.

Looking at the girls, some plump and some thin, Su Mingzhe was able to calm down for a rare moment.

……

Since the fall of the Ming Cult, Su Mingzhe has been either thinking about state affairs or the fate of the eight celestial maidens.

Among them, women who had given birth to children, such as Tie Yuxiang, Xianglan, Xiangcao, Zhou Zhenzhen, Zhou Yingying, Wulifang, Ding Minjun, and Ji Ruxue, could not become celestial beings and were left out of the list by Su Mingzhe early on.

Among the women in the harem today, there are still eight concubines who have not given birth yet, namely Zhao Min, Yang Caiyi, Zhu Jiuzhen, Wu Qingying, Zhou Zhiruo, Yang Buhui, Xiao Zhao, and Yin Li.

Among these women, Su Mingzhe likes Yang Caiyi and Xiao Zhao the most.

The reason is very simple. They are the most well-behaved and docile, and they can be wholeheartedly devoted to Su Mingzhe.

Although both Zhao Min and Yang Buhui have concerns about each other, they have no other men in their hearts, which is not bad for Su Mingzhe.

The remaining four girls, Zhou Zhiruo, Yin Li, Zhu Jiuzhen and Wu Qingying, all had lovers already, but were taken into the harem by Su Mingzhe using coercion and inducement.

Su Mingzhe originally wanted to make these four women fall in love with him slowly over time.

Now that more than half a year has passed, Su Mingzhe knows that he has failed:
"Forget it. A forced melon is not sweet. At worst, I can just move to another dimension!"

……

Small Mount Sumeru.

Bodhisattva Lingji was sitting upright on a lotus platform, silently reciting the Great Light Sutra.

Suddenly, he felt something in his heart. He looked up and saw Su Mingzhe sitting cross-legged in front of the Xumi Realm and chanting the Buddha's name. Four celestial maidens with charming faces and graceful bodies suddenly appeared around him.

"Namo Amitabha!"

"Namo Amitabha!"

Su Mingzhe suddenly had an idea. He turned around and bowed to Lingji Bodhisattva, then smiled and said:

"Bodhisattva, I have been in the Xumi Realm for decades and only got four celestial maidens. Now I am still short of four. I wonder if Bodhisattva can give me some advice?"

After hearing this, Lingji Bodhisattva shook his head slightly and said with a smile:
"All conditioned phenomena are like dreams, illusions, bubbles, and shadows; like dew and lightning, they should be viewed in this way!"

Su Mingzhe felt bored when he saw Lingji Bodhisattva actually started to think about Zen.

After a moment's silence, he stretched out his right index finger again and lightly touched his forehead. A bit of spiritual wisdom floated into a Sumeru world.

The four girls, Zhao Min, Xiao Zhao, Yang Caiyi and Yang Buhui, who were brought out of the Small Xumi Realm by him, sat around him, looking around curiously.

……

In the Sumeru realm.

Dongyang County, Su Mansion.

The young man who has awakened his memory of innate wisdom is slowly integrating the memories.

The servant Mingyan looked panicked and ran in hurriedly from outside the yard.

Seeing this, the young man subconsciously scolded: "Calm down, calm down, how many times have I told you? To accomplish great things, one must remain calm even when facing a mountain collapse in front of him!"

"Master, something serious has happened!"

Seeing that the young man wanted to teach him a lesson, the servant Mingyan had a helpless expression on his face:
"You should go out and have a look!"

Su Mingzhe had just finished integrating his memories. Seeing the anxious look on the boy's face, he suddenly remembered the last time he was reincarnated. He couldn't help but ask:
"What? My fiancée ran away?"

"Eh? Master, you know?"

After hearing Su Mingzhe's question, the servant Mingyan saw his master's face suddenly change, as if he had seen a ghost:

"My fiancée...really ran away?"

……

Your wife ran away again?
Why does it always start like this?

Su Mingzhe feels that he is now "overwhelmed with difficulties".

After the headache subsided, Su Mingzhe suddenly remembered the Buddhist verse that Lingji Bodhisattva had recited to him:

"All conditioned phenomena are like dreams, illusions, bubbles, and shadows; like dew and lightning, they should be viewed in this way!"

This Buddhist verse, literally, advises people not to be attached.

In his previous life, when Su Mingzhe faced his fiancée who ran away from marriage, he did not cling to her. Instead, he quietly practiced at home and listened to his parents and found a new wife.

"Could it be that what I did in my last life was wrong?"

Su Mingzhe knew that things like Buddhist verses always contained ambiguous words.

If you want to think about the truth behind this, you need to look at it from a deeper level, or a higher dimension.

……

He sat cross-legged in the study, thinking for a long time.

Su Mingzhe gradually figured out a truth.

In his previous life, if Su Mingzhe had not awakened his innate wisdom, then his action of not pursuing his fiancée would have made him look like a man of great wisdom and enlightenment.

But the problem is that Su Mingzhe awakened his wisdom in his previous life.

So, what I did in my previous life... was wrong?
……

No, the decision I made in my previous life was not wrong.

According to dialectical thinking, there was nothing wrong with what I did in my previous life, it's just that I couldn't say I had "great wisdom and great enlightenment".

……

In my previous life, if I had not awakened my wisdom, I would have had two choices when I heard that my fiancée had run away from the marriage.

The first option is to say "Don't despise the young and poor, one day you will become a dragon and a phoenix", and then work hard.

The second option is to chase after the person relentlessly like a dog.

And I awakened my innate wisdom, did not go to Zhou's house to make a fuss, and "cut the loss" in time, which can only be regarded as a wise move.

……

The current situation is that I have awakened my innate wisdom.

If you still use the "great wisdom" of an ordinary teenager to think about problems, it would be a bit self-deceptive.

Thinking of this, Su Mingzhe gradually calmed down, his thoughts gradually diverged, and he began to think about the problem from a different angle.

For example, if Buddha encountered such a situation, what would he do?
……

"Dad, Mom, I'm going to go out to study!"

After thinking for a day and a night, Su Mingzhe finally made a decision.

Although Su's father and mother were not happy to see their only son go out, they also knew that it was useless to simply stop him because the son was no longer under his control when he grew up.

After the couple looked at each other, Father Su asked:
"Mingzhe, you want to go abroad to study, do you have a place to go?"

"No."

Before Su Mingzhe awakened his innate wisdom, he was just an ordinary teenager. He had no idea how big the world was, so naturally he couldn't tell the direction of his studies.

Father Su saw this and guessed that his son was probably affected by the "broken engagement" and couldn't help but sighed before speaking:

"My father has some friendship with the president of Nishan Academy. Why don't you go to Nishan Academy..."
