My Wife is A Sword God - Chapter 752: Departure
The next morning, even Qin Feng, whose body had been tempered by the Dragon Bead and Thunder, felt a soreness in his back and waist as if he was about to collapse.
No wonder when the wives entered the room last night, they brought a special decoction made by the old maid. They had known all along that this would be a prolonged battle.
There’s no land that can’t be tilled, only oxen that can’t work. If I could start over, I would have been a Warrior, Qin Feng thought to himself. Compared to his two Wives, the physique of a scholar like himself was still a bit too weak.
He turned his head to take a look, and the fragrant beauties were beside him, their heads buried in the quilt after a night of lovemaking.
So you guys are embarrassed too, Qin Feng blinked his eyes, suddenly finding it quite amusing.
He wanted to pull back the quilt and tease his two Wives, but the quilt seemed to be stuck to their bodies, not budging at all.
Liu Jianli and Cang Feilan were secretly exerting their strength!
Just as Qin Feng was about to compete with his two Wives, a surge of spiritual energy suddenly began to frantically circulate within him.
“What’s this?” Qin Feng widened his eyes and quickly expanded his spiritual sense to examine himself.
He saw that the black and white qi flowing on the Yin-Yang Dao in the Divine Sea were circulating and cleansing his entire body. Chi Qi and Bai Su, the two little guys, were also showing expressions of extreme enjoyment under this spiritual momentum.
Qin Feng initially didn’t understand. It wasn’t until Senior Xuan Yi’s phantom appeared on the Heart Questioning Platform that he learned from the latter that his body and spirit were now fusing with the Yin-Yang Dao!
“Hmm?” Qin Feng was greatly puzzled. For nearly half a year, he had been diligently studying, yet gained little. Why did he suddenly break through and start fusing with the Dao Principles overnight?
“Senior, why is this so?”
Xuan Yi pondered for a moment, then asked, “What did you do last night?”
“Last night, I…” Qin Feng paused for a moment, then continued haltingly, “Last night, I shared a pleasant night with my two Wives.”
“I see. The saying ‘Alone yang cannot be born, alone yin cannot grow’ applies here. Your constant research on the Yin-Yang Dao Principles was not in vain, you just lacked the right opportunity to fuse it within yourself. And your intimate time with your Wives provided that opportunity.”
Qin Feng realized that it was similar to when he had previously imparted the Ancient Divine Breath and Primordial Immortal Qi to his two Wives through intimacy.
With the harmonious fusion of yin and yang, the spiritual energies circulated between their bodies, which finally allowed him to break through and begin fusing the Yin-Yang Dao Principles within himself.
After carefully sensing the spiritual energy within him, he clearly felt that it was now significantly stronger than before.
“If my guess is correct, your two Wives should have also gained tremendous benefits,” Xuan Yi said.
Qin Feng activated his Dual Pupil Ability and took a look at his two Wives.
Just as the Senior had said, Liu Jianli and Cang Feilan’s bodies had completely recovered, and the spiritual energy within them had even surpassed their previous peaks.
No wonder some martial arts classics advocate dual cultivation – it’s comfortable while also helping to improve one’s cultivation.
Qin Feng had a strange expression on his face.
The sunlight seeped in through the gaps in the window, and the crisp winter air filled the room, uplifting one’s mood.
There was a chirping sound, and a small black shadow flashed past the window. It was a little fox.
Qin Feng suddenly remembered that he was supposed to leave early this morning and go to the Western Regions with Su Tianyue!
But last night, he had gotten caught up in the gentle embrace and forgotten all about it.
Glancing to the sides, he saw that his two Wives had already awakened, but were still burying their heads, not daring to come out.
Qin Feng tentatively asked, “It’s getting late. Do my two wives want to have dinner together?”
He had already planned that his dear Jianli and Feilan would certainly be too shy to make a move, so this would be the perfect opportunity for him to get up and leave.
However, the plan was good, but reality was unpredictable.
Suddenly, two white and jade-like arms emerged from under the quilt and yanked Qin Feng back in.
Qin Feng was greatly startled, never imagining that his two Wives would really want to “fish” him, but this was not the kind of “fishing” he had in mind!
Outside, Su Tianyue’s illusory clone heard the commotion and a strange look crossed its eyes.
It lifted its head to look at the sky, and the sun was steadily rising.
The time it takes to burn two sticks of incense passed in a hurry.
When Qin Feng finally came out of the room, fully clothed, he was in a hunched posture.
Not only had he fought through the night, but he also had to get up early and work overtime. Even an iron man could not endure such torment.
The more you till the land, the fatter the farmer becomes, the more you till the ox, the thinner it gets – this is a well-known truth.
Chirp chirp!
The little red fox was at his feet, and with a bang, a pink mist appeared, revealing an alluring and charming figure with nine long fox tails swaying, adding to her enchanting aura.
Su Tianyue glanced at the room and said with a half-smile, “That fast?”
Qin Feng’s face stiffened at these words – this was the greatest insult to a man!
“Hmph, if it weren’t for going to the Western Regions with you, I wouldn’t even stop to catch my breath, even if the sun was high in the sky.”
“Before you say that, you might want to straighten your back first,” Su Tianyue said mockingly.
“Enough chatter, let’s hurry and leave for the Western Regions before they wake up,” Qin Feng said, supporting his waist as he walked towards the gate of the Qin Mansion.
“If that’s the case, then you don’t need to worry,” Su Tianyue said.
“What do you mean?” Qin Feng turned around, puzzled, only to be stunned on the spot.
On both sides of the doorway, Liu Jianli and Cang Feilan were already fully dressed and standing there quietly with cold expressions.
If even he can get out of bed, how can the two wives really fall asleep?
“What’s going on?” Cang Feilan glanced at Su Tianyue and asked coldly.
Liu Jianli didn’t say a word, just raised her hand, and with a sound of flowing water, the Clear Water Sword descended from the sky – it seemed they were ready to fight at the slightest provocation.
Qin Feng hurriedly said, “Wives, let me explain.”
After his explanation, Liu Jianli and Cang Feilan seemed to understand the situation – the Western Regions had encountered another crisis, and the Heavenly Tower National Teacher had ordered Qin Feng to go there.
“Why did you hide this important matter from us?” Liu Jianli looked at Qin Feng with a trace of displeasure in her cold gaze.
Su Tianyue couldn’t help but chime in, “Why else? Obviously, it’s because he didn’t want you two to worry, and he knew you couldn’t be of much help, so he chose to keep it hidden.”
Cang Feilan furrowed her brows and glared at Su Tianyue with her pale blue eyes.
“No need to look at me that way. After the Candle Dragon from the Southern Domain manifested and the Heavenly changes, the powers in this realm have been advancing by leaps and bounds.”
“And you two happen to be with a child, with your spiritual energies being constantly drained by those little ones. Maintaining your original strength is already difficult, let alone getting involved in this matter.”
Towards the end, Su Tianyue’s tone became rather serious. She and Liu Jianli had a certain level of acquaintance, and her concern was genuine.
When Liu Jianli and Cang Feilan heard this, they both looked towards Qin Feng. He knew very well how strong-willed his two Wives were, and if they were convinced by Su Tianyue’s words, they would insist on going to the Western Regions no matter what.
So he quickly changed his explanation: “Don’t listen to her nonsense. I’ve never doubted the strengths of you two! It’s just that Qin Xiao and Qin Lan were just born, and they need someone to take care of them. If I leave and you two aren’t here, I’m afraid the household will be in chaos, that’s all.
“And you two do indeed need to rest and recuperate.”
Su Tianyue raised her brow slightly, not bothering to argue.
Cang Feilan spoke in a cold tone, “Jianli and I can stay behind.”
“Is that so?”
“But you are not allowed to go either. Your strength is even inferior to ours, going would only be courting death.”
“That’s not possible. He was ordered by the Heavenly Tower National Teacher,” Su Tianyue frowned.
The scene revealed in the Heavenly Reflecting Stone meant that she had to take Qin Feng to the Western Regions, or else disaster would occur.
Moreover, she believed that by bringing the Heavenly Tower National Teacher, even a proud dragon like Cang Feilan would have to consider the matter carefully.
“What does that old man have to do with me? Does he think everyone in the world is his chess piece?” Cang Feilan dismissed it.
Ah, this made Qin Feng quickly glance towards the Heavenly Tower, fortunately everything was still normal.
The situation had become a bit awkward. Either he had to take his two wives along, or nobody could go.
After some thought, Qin Feng sighed deeply and said solemnly, “If that’s the case, how about we make a bet?”
“A bet on what?”
“The three of us will have a contest, three moves to determine the winner. If I win, you two will stay here and let me go to the West. If I lose, I’ll agree to you both coming along.”
Qin Feng said this with great courage, as he had been under the thumb of his Wives for too long, the trait of being henpecked deeply ingrained in him.
But for the safety of his two Wives, he had to do this. Moreover, he believed that after the ten months of pregnancy, he had likely surpassed them and could decisively defeat his Wives.
Perhaps today would be the day he finally took the reins!
“You really want to do this?” Liu Jianli parted her crimson lips.
Qin Feng smiled confidently, “That’s right, you two should be careful.”
An incense stick’s worth of time later, a group stood ready at the gates of the Qin Mansion.
Su Tianyue glanced at the disheveled Qin Feng with a disdainful look on her face.
He was defeated in a single exchange, how embarrassing.
But in those few moments, Su Tianyue had also noticed something unusual.
Liu Jianli and Cang Feilan’s spiritual energies were actually a bit stronger than before, and there seemed to be a special power circulating throughout their bodies, making their aura more complete, even giving the impression of being one with Heaven and Earth.
‘It’s like Dao Principles, but not ordinary ones,’ Su Tianyue mused.
The servants of the house took out the horses, and the second brother asked curiously: “Brother, what’s wrong with you?”
Liu Jianli and Cang Feilan glanced over, and Qin Feng awkwardly replied, “I accidentally fell just now, but I’m fine.
Although he said that, he was inwardly very frustrated. He had hoped to show off his prowess, but instead had once again been proven that his Wives would always be his Wives.
But how could he have known that the moment he said “be careful,” his two Wives would strike?
He had let his guard down and was unable to dodge, and was quickly subdued by the ruthless actions of his wives.
But at that distance, the Literature Saint Dao Lineage was indeed no match for a Warrior and a Dragon Clan Member.
After all, the former was like a mage, needing to cast a big spell, while the latter could strike with a mere lift of the hand, their skills having no cooldown and their attack power was quite high.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. When would the mage be able to stand up?
“You just gave birth to a baby, why are you still running around? The world today is even more unsettled than before.”
“I still don’t fully understand this ‘honeymoon’ you mentioned,” the Second Mother said worriedly.
Qin Feng explained, “I thought that since the two Wives have been confined to the Imperial City for the ten months of pregnancy, they might be feeling bored. So I planned to take them out for a trip, seven to eight days at the shortest, a month at the longest. They’ll be back before long, Second Mother, you don’t need not worry.”
This was the explanation he had pre-coordinated with the others.
“As an older person, I don’t understand your ways. Just be very careful when you’re out,” the Second Mother said.
“Of course, while we’re away, we’ll trouble Aunt to take care of Qin Xiao and Qin Lan,” Qin Feng said.
“Don’t worry, if they’re disobedient, the Dragon Clan has many ways to discipline them,” Cang Mu replied lazily.
Qin Feng pondered for a moment, then said seriously, “If Qin Xiao causes trouble, you can discipline him as you see fit. But for Qin Lan, just beating won’t work, you’ll need to reason with her more.”
“Of course, if Aunt really can’t hold back your anger, taking it out on Qin Xiao is also acceptable.”
After some further exchanges, it was time to part ways.
Suddenly, Cang Feilan noticed something and frowned. She then leaned close to Su Tianyue and gave a light sniff.
This simple action made Qin Feng’s hair stand on end. “Hmm, Patriarch Tianyue, the scent on you, could it be that you’ve also used the Hundred Flower Powder from the Imperial Excellence? This is a special supply for the royal family, and ordinary people can’t get their hands on it.”
As he spoke, he kept sending her meaningful glances.
Su Tianyue, who had lived for who knows how long, naturally understood these nuances. She smiled slightly, returning a reassuring look.
Qin Feng let out a sigh of relief.
“We fox women never use cosmetics, this is our unique natural fragrance,”
Damn it!
At the Grand Literature Academy, atop the Heavenly Tower.
The Heavenly Tower National Teacher withdrew his gaze, and the miniature City God said, “The earlier scene you showed concealed some information.”
“And you, what have you not been telling us? You keep claiming you came to this world to obtain the Farshore Flower and deal with those entities.”
“But you should have known long ago that the quantity of Farshore Flowers is like a drop in the bucket compared to their numbers.”
“You’re doing this not just to obtain the Farshore Flower, but to verify some hypothesis and find a way to completely annihilate them.”
The City God’s pupils widened slightly. “So what if that’s the case? The facts have proven that the Farshore Flower can indeed exterminate those entities.”
“What you should be concerned about now is how to deal with that Ghost Buddha. You should know that the creation of the incarnation hides something that is immortal and indestructible.”
The Heavenly Tower National Teacher did not respond, but instead said calmly, “Aren’t you curious about the information I’ve been hiding?”
“What is it?” the City God asked, intrigued.
“They are searching for… the master of the Dao Principles of life and death in this realm.”
