The Righteous Man's Search for His Wife [Complete] - Part 2 

(37) For the sake of freedom,
Li Biyu was terrified, terrified that her drunken husband would suddenly wake up. Little did she know that I had struck her sleeping acupoint the moment Yan Chong reached the bedside.

"My dear, please, don't do it today, okay? I'm scared, scared he'll wake up," she pleaded desperately.

"As long as you please me, it'll be over." I ignored her and gently thrust my large snake. "Mmm," she bit her lip, the captivating sound from before was gone.

I was annoyed, and my large snake suddenly sped up, determined to make her scream. Her eyes were fixed on my handsome face, she wouldn't utter a sound, this feeling of adultery lingered in our hearts. The muffled "mmm, mmm" sounds in my ears seemed even more satisfying than the loud screams from before...

After a long while, this climax came slower than before, but more intensely. I roared, my lower back went numb, all the anger and lust of the past few days; all the grievances and injustices I had suffered today poured out with this one thrust. Li Biyu bit my shoulder hard, let out a muffled groan, and fainted…

Afterwards, I grabbed my bundle, ran to the kitchen, ate a quick bite, and then used my light-footed skills to reach the inn where my mothers were staying. After explaining a few things, my mothers had no choice but to allow me to venture out into the world alone. It was already past midnight when I emerged

. A gentle breeze caressed my face, and after a long day of toil, I felt refreshed and incredibly excited. I hadn't felt so free in twelve years. Life is precious, love is even more so. But for freedom, both can be sacrificed.

I let out a long roar: “I am free…”

These past few days, relying on the disguise techniques taught to me by Twelfth Sister Qin Wanfeng, I had transformed into a bearded man and constantly inquired about Yin Qing and her daughter. These two culprits were the first enemies I faced in my journey through the world. Even though they were incomparably beautiful and members of the Mount Tai Sect, I would make sure they were punished.

Although I was a bold and arrogant person, I wasn't stupid. Before they were punished, I didn't want to expose my whereabouts and give them an opportunity to take advantage of me. Arriving at a teahouse, the best place to gather information.

"Welcome, sir. What tea would you like? What snacks?" the waiter greeted me attentively.

"Anything is fine." I lazily plopped down on a stool, which creaked. Qin Wanfeng's disguise was ingenious, but it couldn't change my height. My nine-foot height was truly unique in the world; even with my disguise, some martial artists still scrutinized me with suspicious eyes.

"I heard there's a 'Nine-Foot Lecher' in the martial world lately, that guy at that table..." a thin-faced man whispered to his companion.

"Hmm, he does look a bit like him..."

Though they spoke softly, my hearing was exceptional; I heard everything clearly. An idea formed in my mind, and I roared at them, "Hey you, who are you calling a lecher? How dare you compare me, Niu Er, to a lecher! Watch out for my fist!" With a punch, I punched a large hole in the small table beneath me.

Those present were all martial artists, and they were thrilled by this sight. Seeing the hole I'd punched in the table—a perfect fist-shaped hole with almost no cracks—they all clicked their tongues in amazement, exclaiming, "That guy's got a really powerful fist!" To punch a hole in a table without leaving a crack, like I did, is truly rare, proving my considerable martial arts skills.

The skinny guy immediately changed color, stood up, and clasped his hands in a fist salute, saying, "Brother, it was a misunderstanding. I misspoke just now; please forgive me ." In this martial world, everyone respects strength; whoever has the strength is the boss. Seeing my overwhelming strength and superior fist technique, the skinny guy had no choice but to bow and apologize.

"That's more like it. Watch your mouth from now on, or I'll tear you apart."

Hearing my boastful words, the skinny guy, though angry, dared not show it. He said goodbye and slunk away with his companions, leaving behind my unrestrained laughter. This is the martial world. Whoever has the biggest fist is the boss.

A group of nuns arrived shortly after. Several young nuns, surrounding a middle-aged nun, sat at two tables next to me. One of them, quite attractive, looked familiar; I seemed to have seen her at the Five Mountains Sword Sect Alliance Conference.

"Master, what a spoilsport! A perfectly good alliance conference has been ruined by that lecherous fiend. The martial arts competition was supposed to be canceled because of him. I was hoping to make a name for myself in front of all the heroes of the world today!" A pretty young nun of about thirteen or fourteen said coquettishly to her middle-aged nun. Although this young nun was dressed in plain clothes and didn't look particularly remarkable, she couldn't escape my keen eyes; she would surely grow up to be a beauty.

"Zhiruo, don't mention that lecherous fiend to me again. If we hadn't been just guests that day, and out of consideration for the Five Mountains Sword Sect, I would have already drawn my Heaven-Slaying Sword and slain that lecherous villain!" The middle-aged nun, who was also somewhat attractive, unexpectedly uttered such fiery words.

I knew they were talking about me. Sensing the middle-aged nun's skill surpassed that of the five leaders of the Five Mountains Sword Sect, I didn't reply, lowering my head to drink my tea, but I heard their conversation clearly.

"Xiaofu, why hasn't your third junior sister arrived yet?" the middle-aged nun asked.

"Reporting to Master, Junior Sister Minjun encountered some health issues on her way, hence the delay," replied Xiaofu, the pretty young nun.

"Alas, among the disciples of Emei, only you two have good aptitude; the rest are no good. Your third junior sister, though hardworking, is too frail to shoulder the burden," the middle-aged nun sighed.

Xiaofu said, "Master, Junior Sister Minjun's diligence can compensate for her shortcomings; her future achievements are not uncertain."

"Well said, diligence can compensate for shortcomings. I observe that the lecherous demon's martial arts are unparalleled, yet he is so young. You must all diligently practice your swordsmanship; we cannot let a wicked and crooked person outdo us,"

the nuns echoed in unison.

(38) Dragon's Saliva Incense
At this moment, another middle-aged, thin man entered from outside the door. He was extremely short, with hardly any flesh on his body, and he sat down shakily at the table.

This man had a rather handsome face, dressed in an incongruous scholar's attire. Since entering the teahouse, his eyes had never left the group of nuns. A glint of light flickered in his eyes, and his temples were unremarkable. At first glance, he seemed to have no martial arts skills, and none of the people present gave him a second glance. But only I could tell at a glance that his internal strength was truly extraordinary, comparable to that of the middle-aged nun.

"Master, the Five Mountains Sword Sect has issued a warrant today for the arrest of that 'Nine-Foot Lustful Demon.' Do you think we should return to the mountain later to assist the Five Mountains Sword Sect in capturing that 'Lustful Demon'?" Nun Xiaofu asked softly.

"Hmm, that's fine. This is your first time down the mountain; it's a good opportunity for you to travel the world with me and gain some experience," the middle-aged nun nodded.

"Xiaofu, why hasn't your third junior sister arrived yet?"

"Master, she should have arrived by now. She wasn't feeling well and just went to the woods to relieve herself. What could have happened?"

"The martial world is going through a turbulent time lately, and that nine-foot-tall lecher is in Wuchang. Everyone must be careful." The middle-aged nun nodded and admonished, "Come on, we've had our tea. Let's go back and find Minjun." With that, she paid the bill and led a group of nuns out of the teahouse.

The skinny man immediately followed them out of the teahouse as soon as they left. I saw a lecherous glint in his eyes; he clearly intended to harm the nuns. Curious, I followed him out of the teahouse as well.

I pretended to be a passerby and strode along at the back, finding it quite amusing to watch the skinny man sneaking around behind the nuns. A short while later, the nuns entered a large forest, calling out loudly, "Minjun…". From afar, the clear, melodious cries of the nuns echoed.

Once inside the woods, my figure became less conspicuous. Taking advantage of the tall trees, I imitated the skinny man in front of me, dodging left and right, and followed closely behind.

"Hey, Master, isn't that Senior Sister Minjun's sword?"

"Ah, Master, something bad has happened! Senior Sister Minjun must be in trouble."

"Ah, Master, Senior Sister Minjun is here. She seems to have fainted. Master and Senior Sisters, come quickly!"

"What a panic! Quiet down, all of you! Let me check on Minjun." It sounded like the voice of a middle-aged nun.

"Huh? What's that fragrance here?"

"Yeah, it smells really good."

"Oh no! Everyone, hold your breath! This fragrance is strange."

"Hahaha—" The skinny man in front suddenly darted to the group of nuns and burst into laughter. I hovered in a tree, observing the situation.

"Who are you, daring to plot against my Emei Sect?" the middle-aged nun demanded sharply.

"Master Mietian, how have you been? I didn't expect that after twenty years, you haven't aged at all, but have retained your charm. Have you forgotten your old lover so quickly?" the skinny man said with a grin.

"It's you, you villain!" Mie Tian exclaimed in shock. "How come you're still alive, you lecherous scoundrel?"

"Hahaha—, back then, when I captured you, I wanted to spend a wonderful night with you, but you stabbed me, almost killing me. Today, I've come to avenge that sword wound from twenty years ago." "

Chen Daozhi, you abandoned disciple of Wudang. If you hadn't insulted my purity back then, I wouldn't have been abandoned by Brother Hua and become a nun. Today, I will definitely cut you down with my sword to quell the hatred in my heart for twenty years." With that, he drew a three-foot-long, gleaming sword with a whoosh.

"Hahaha—, you old bastard Mie Tian. I, Chen Daozhi, am no longer the ignorant fool I once was." As he spoke, suddenly his bones cracked and popped, and his body, which was originally only five feet tall, suddenly grew to six feet tall. "Mietian, you've all been poisoned by the Demon of Lust's Dragon's Saliva Incense! Surrender now!"

Master Mietian's heart skipped a beat. She secretly circulated her internal energy, and sure enough, a surge of heat rushed up from her dantian. Looking at her disciples, they were all flushed, panting, their sword-wielding hands trembling uncontrollably; one even dropped his sword.

"You—" Mietian roared, glaring at Chen Daozhi.

"Haha, I know your Heaven-Slaying Sword is incredibly sharp; few in the world can withstand you. I spent five years obtaining this Dragon's Saliva Incense from the Demon of Lust, one of the Nine Demons, precisely to deal with you. Of course, your sword strike rendered me impotent. Today, I'll turn your Emei Sect into a martial arts brothel, turning everyone into wanton harlots. You probably don't know how potent this Dragon's Saliva Incense is, do you?" Chen Daozhi said smugly.

Mietian snorted angrily, ignoring him, and secretly circulated her internal energy to expel the poison.

"Old nun, you'd better save your breath. There's no antidote for this dragon's saliva incense. No matter how high your internal strength is, you can't expel the poison. The only way is through the union of yin and yang. Moreover, any woman poisoned by this will have an increasingly strong libido. Back then, the little princess of the Nangong family, Nangong Ziqian, was able to marry that 'One Sword Dragon' Xu Batian because she was poisoned by this. Hahaha, how about it, do you feel itchy down there now?" Hearing him mention my mother, I secretly felt a chill. How dare he insult my mother...

"You villain, I will die rather than let you succeed." Saying that, she reached back with her right hand and slashed her own neck...

I didn't expect her to be so fierce and determined to commit suicide with her sword. Chen Daozhi also didn't expect that Mie Tian would commit suicide. Seeing that there was no time to save her, Mie Tian was about to die tragically under his sword...


(Thirty-nine) Repelling the Enemy Just as the Yitian Sword was about to cut Mie Tian's neck, the sword suddenly stopped moving and lay horizontally on her shoulder. Bloodstains were already seeping from her neck. If it cut a little more, Mie Tian would surely perish.

Then Chen Daozhi lunged forward as if pushed, spitting out blood. He turned to defend himself, shouting, "You scoundrel, how dare you launch a sneak attack!"

I stood tall with my hands behind my back, laughing loudly, "Dealing with a shameless scoundrel like you, any method is perfectly justified." Seeing that Mie Tian was about to commit suicide, I couldn't help but intervene, striking Chen Daozhi in the back and striking his shoulder acupoint with my finger. Even though I loathed her, I hated Chen Daozhi, this scheming and treacherous person, even more.

The nuns of Emei were all weak and limp, panting and swaying. They had thought they would be defiled by this villain, but unexpectedly, the situation changed drastically. A nine-foot-tall man suddenly came to their rescue, quickly helping the motionless Mie Tian, who was holding the Heaven-Slaying Sword, to sit down and rest.

Chen Daozhi was secretly circulating his inner energy; his internal injuries were quite severe. If I hadn't reacted quickly, sensing the murderous aura behind me and desperately blocking it with my inner strength, I would already be lying dead on the spot. This nine-foot-tall man before me clearly possessed unparalleled skill. If I hadn't been injured, I might have had a chance, but now I had no choice but to flee. Knowing I wouldn't be able to hold out much longer, I stopped wasting words and roared, striking with my palm: "Junior, take this!"

I chuckled inwardly. Normally, it might take me a hundred moves to defeat you, but now you're injured, yet you dare to strike first. I leaped forward and met his attack with a punch: "You're courting death!" Seeing my fist collide with Chen Daozhi's right palm, I thought I would send him flying, but he did fly, though not from my blow. Chen Daozhi, who had already intended to retreat, used the force of my punch to accelerate his backward flight, laughing loudly, "Youngster, you're still too green to fight me."

Seeing his sudden retreat, I knew I'd been tricked, and a surge of anger rose within me. I quickly used my Starry Sky Chess Steps to catch up with him like lightning: "Trying to escape? No way!"

Chen Daozhi never expected my lightness skill to be so superb. Even though he had gained the upper hand and used the force of my punch to retreat first, I still managed to catch him. Just as I was about to catch him, he suddenly pulled something from his robes and threw it behind him.

I saw a cloud of red mist enveloping him. I knew that although I was immune to all poisons, I dared not act rashly. Who likes to be touched by poison? Those so-called immune people are always unafraid of poisoning, saying confidently, "It's nothing, it's nothing, I'm immune to all poisons, I'm not afraid even if I'm poisoned." But poison is poison. Being fine now doesn't mean you'll be fine later. Life is a hundred years long. If you don't take good care of your body when you're young, you'll inevitably be riddled with illnesses when you're old.

I quickly held my breath, and my right hand, which had been striking out, retreated as well. With a whoosh, Chen Daozhi missed, but I ripped off his outer garment, and something fell from his arms in his haste. Chen Daozhi dared not pick it up, fearing that any further delay would cost him his life. Taking advantage of the moment I was blocked by the red mist, he mustered his last remaining strength and flew forward, disappearing into the forest in no time.

As the saying goes, don't pursue a cornered enemy. Chen Daozhi was injured by my palm strike, enough to keep him bedridden for a year or two. I didn't care, and curiously picked up the object he had dropped in his haste...

Bending down to pick it up, I saw that it was a book with the words "Explosive Breathing" written on the cover. I casually flipped through it; it was clearly the internal energy manual that Chen Daozhi practiced. At this moment, I still had to deal with a group of nuns, so I didn't have the heart to read it carefully and simply stuffed it into my pocket to study later.

Approaching them, I saw the group of nuns, their faces flushed and their eyes watery as they looked at me, and a sense of foreboding washed over me.

Even the usually cold-faced Mie Tian, seeing me repel Chen Daozhi, relaxed slightly and said to me, "Thank you for saving me, young hero. Please release my pressure points."

I waved my hand, easily releasing her pressure points, and said, "Old nun, you don't need to thank me. I simply couldn't stand that old scoundrel Chen's despicable behavior." I patted the man in my arms, "I still have payment to make, why do you need to thank me? Empty words."

The nuns, upon hearing my words, completely lost their initial gratitude and were so angry they wanted to stand up and argue with me. But before they could even stand up straight, they all collapsed, gasping in surprise—the ambergris had clearly taken effect.

Although Mie Tian also fell to the ground, she didn't cry out. She coldly said to me, "Hmph, Xu Zhengqi, the nine-foot-tall lecherous demon, I knew you had no good intentions. Wasn't your repelling of Chen Daozhi just to satisfy your wolfish ambitions?"

I was greatly surprised and asked her, "How did you know it was me?"

Mie Tian's eyes gleamed with cunning as she chuckled, "It really was you. I felt your back looked familiar when I saw you in the teahouse."

I suddenly realized she had been bluffing me. "You old nun, as expected of the dignified head of the Emei Sect, old foxes are indeed shrewd." She then chuckled lewdly, "Now that you're poisoned and have fallen into the hands of this lecherous thief, what good plan do you have?"

Upon hearing this, Mie Tian's expression immediately changed, and he roared, "You'd better kill us afterwards, otherwise, no matter where you flee to, Emei will make sure you die without a burial place!"

I curled my lip, looking completely indifferent: "You can't even protect yourselves now, yet you're still spouting nonsense. So, the Emei sect leader makes a living by talking big , huh? Haha..."

The nuns felt increasingly weak, waves of heat surging through their bodies. Although they heard my disrespect for the sect leader, they had no strength to refute me. Each of them clutched their clothes tightly, as if they couldn't resist taking them off.

Seeing their burning desire, I wanted to save them, but I was still angry with them: "Since you don't want me to save you, then I'll leave." I turned and made as if to leave.

Mie Tian glared at me and said, "You..."

That glare was filled with anger, despair, helplessness, and even a hint of resentment and dissatisfaction...

Then I looked at the nuns, and their eyes, just like Mie Tian's, softened my heart...
(40) Fragrant Detoxification
Now that I had made up my mind, I got down to business quickly. I counted carefully, and there were nine nuns here, including Mie Tian. Except for Mie Tian, who was a bit older, the rest were all young nuns, with one being a little younger, only thirteen or fourteen years old. I couldn't take so many people with me at once, so I had no choice but to set up a Bagua Bewitching Array around the area to prevent anyone from breaking in.

This array was one of the three great arrays that my master had passed down to me. It had the effect of bewitching the mind and blocking the sound and sight of those inside the array. Outsiders could neither see nor hear what was happening inside the array, and it came in handy at this moment.

After setting up the array, I slowly walked towards Mie Tian and the others.

Mie Tian was shocked, staring at me in disbelief: "You, what are you going to do?"

"What am I going to do? Look at your disciples. If you don't save them, they'll surely die from lust."

"You lecherous thief, we'd rather die than have you save us!"

"It doesn't matter if you don't want me to save them, but they can't. They're in the prime of their lives, in the bloom of youth. It's not worth it for them to die so young."

Hearing my words, Mie Tian turned to look at her beloved disciples. They were struggling against me, their clothes already disheveled, legs tightly pressed together, faces flushed, moaning incessantly, unable to endure any longer. A wave of sorrow washed over Mie Tian, her heart aching. My words seemed to echo in her ears, "Not worth it, not worth it..."

Seeing her lost in thought, I ignored her. The nuns were already unbearably tormented by lust; delaying their rescue might damage their sanity. I rushed over and grabbed a beautiful young nun, embracing her hot body as I gently helped her remove her clothes, asking, "Tell me, what's your name?"

The nun seemed to struggle, but her body wouldn't obey her. Blushing, she said to me, "This humble nun is Miaohui, just turned twenty this year."

Hearing her not only give her name but also her age, I knew she approved of my actions. This Miaohui was pretty, slightly plump. Only after removing her clothes did I realize that beneath her plain gray robes lay an exceptionally full and hot body. Gently removing her bodice, a pair of small, adorable breasts sprang out, their areolas bright red and glistening. I couldn't resist any longer and took that bright red nipple into my mouth, sucking incessantly.

Miaohui cried out, pressing my head tightly against her chest, "Gently, young hero, gently." My hands were no longer idle, roaming over her body...

The whole process was anything but gentle; it was a full-blown storm. It wasn't that I lacked tenderness; it was her demand. This ambergris is truly potent; even the nuns are aroused and so wanton. Even a harlot wouldn't scream as loudly as Miaohui. The nuns around me were already exhausted; several with weaker internal energy couldn't help but crawl to my side, pressing and rubbing against me with their burning bodies. Mie Tian, Xiao Fu, and that little nun were clearly the best among them…

With a scream, they all collapsed to the ground like rag dolls, unconscious.

I straightened up and walked naked toward the three women nestled beside me. The little nun Zhi Ruo looked at me with hopeful, watery eyes, but one hand was tightly held by Xiao Fu. I believe that if Xiao Fu hadn't been holding her back, she would have pounced on me like the others.

"Alright, only the three of you are left. Oh, no, Mie Tian, you old nun don't want me to save you."

Mie Tian turned her head sharply when she saw me walking toward them, but the blush on her face didn't escape my sharp eyes.

"Hmph, I'd rather die than submit to you," Mie Tian muttered.

I ignored her and reached out to pull up Xiao Fu, the most beautiful nun in the group. Her exposed neck, with its snow-white skin, stirred my heart.

Xiao Fu struggled fiercely and said to me gently, "My master and I will live and die together. I won't let you succeed. Give up on that idea."

Wow, I didn't expect this beautiful nun, who looked so gentle and weak, to be so fierce and unruly. Seeing that it wasn't easy to go after her, I decided to start with the younger one. "Zhi Ruo, will your brother help you detoxify?" I said gently, like a big bad wolf coaxing this poor little rabbit.

"Mmm," Zhi Ruo glanced furtively at her master and senior sister, then looked back at me blankly without saying a word.

I was secretly delighted, knowing her concerns. I walked over and gently pulled away Xiaofu's hand, saying, "Don't be afraid, I'm here. Your master and senior sister won't dare to do anything to you."

Xiaofu, seeing me pull away, said angrily, "You lecherous thief, let Zhiruo go! She's just a child!"

"Do you want her to die so young?"

"I..."
Ignoring everyone else, I took off Zhiruo's clothes. She was as translucent as a porcelain doll. The little nun's body trembled slightly, clearly frightened. "Don't worry, brother will love you well, don't worry." I gently comforted her, soothing her fragile heart.

"Yes, Zhiruo, don't be afraid. Brother, you must love me well." Feeling that her heart had opened up to me, I gently entered her body...

Zhiruo couldn't withstand my size; she cried out in pain the moment I entered her. Mie Tian and Xiao Fu beside me cursed "beasts," but I ignored them, holding back my movements and gently caressing her, saying, "Zhi Ruo, bear with it, you're too young. By the way, why don't you have a Dharma name like Miao Hui and the others? Why does Mie Tian call you by your secular name?"

Zhi Ruo bit her lip, enduring the excruciating pain in her lower body, and hummed softly, smiling slightly as she said to me, "Master said that Senior Sister Xiao Fu and I will be in charge of Emei in the future, so they haven't shaved our heads yet so we can travel the world alone." As she spoke, she gently removed the hat from her head, revealing a thin layer of black hair, but no ordination scars.

I turned to look at Xiao Fu, who hummed softly and turned her head away from me, but I could still see some faint black hair on the back of her neck. So that's how it is.

"Are you feeling better? Brother is coming."

"Mmm..."

When I brought Zhi Ruo to orgasm, my desire only intensified, and I gently put her down and looked at Xiao Fu.

"You villain, give up, um..."

Xiaofu was at her limit, even speaking was difficult. Looking at this beautiful nun who was gentle on the outside but strong on the inside, I was furious: "Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. I'll help her to the end, even if it means sending her to heaven. You can't refuse today." I pulled her into my arms and kissed her delicate little mouth. Xiaofu tried to struggle but was powerless. Her originally snow-white skin was already covered with a light red, and her hands slowly rubbed her full breasts, feeling them reach their peak.

A furious glare shot from the side, I knew it was Mietian, I ignored her and continued my unfinished plan of deflowering her.

I carefully examined Xiaofu in my arms. Her eyebrows were arched, and her eyes were bright, long, and alluring, sparkling with desire yet also holding a hidden determination, a result of the aphrodisiac. Her delicate, pink nose was glistening with a light sheen of sweat, and her cherry-red lips were vibrant and tempting, her pearly teeth gently biting. Her small, jade-like hands clutched her disheveled clothes, adding to her seductive allure. Her long, slender neck, white as snow, possessed an indescribable allure. Her shoulders were sharply defined, her breasts full and firm, her waist slender and captivating, her body long and shapely. I had almost torn off her bodice, revealing half of her breasts, as delicate and beautiful as alabaster.

Such beauty overwhelmed me; I could no longer restrain myself. With a roar, I pressed her down onto the grass…

Now, only the Destroyer of Heaven remained. Relatively speaking, she was over forty, her youth gone, and her temper fiery; she hated me to the core. Actually, thinking about it carefully, she was also a pitiful woman, abandoned at a young age and forced into a nunnery. A grudge had been stuck in her heart for twenty years, inevitably making her irritable. Thinking of this, I no longer hesitated, forgetting what I had just said, and reached out to embrace her.

Mie Tian tried to dodge: "Didn't you just say you wouldn't touch me?" Her eyes were filled with terror and despair.

"Don't you want revenge? Don't you want to kill Chen Daozhi with your own hands?" I gently tried to persuade her.

She remained silent, then said, "I won't be grateful to you. You and Chen Daozhi are the same; after today, I will make sure you both suffer a terrible death."

I smiled gently and said, "Whatever, let me satisfy you now." I pressed her down…

(Forty-one) The Rebellion of Prince Ning
The spring sun is so nice, warm and gentle on the skin without being too hot. Strolling leisurely along the road, humming the folk songs my mother taught me, I felt completely relaxed.

I never imagined that the usually aloof and cold Emei Sect Leader, Abbess Mietian, would be so wanton in bed. Her high-pitched, melodious moans, rising and falling like celestial music, still lingered in my ears. Our passionate encounter lasted for over an hour; she was arguably the most stamina I'd ever encountered. As the Emei Sect

Leader, Mietian possessed profound inner strength. For forty years, she had maintained a pure and abstinent heart, and the desire she had painstakingly suppressed, once ignited by the dragon's saliva incense, was unstoppable, erupting like a volcano. Even as a virgin, she could fight me for over an hour. Thinking of the look she gave me during her post-orgasm period, my lower body stirred with desire.

Although I had told her about my grievances with Yi Qing and her mother, she didn't forgive me. She still insisted I was a lecherous scoundrel, vowing not only revenge but also a warrant for my arrest throughout the martial arts world. I laughed heartily. The "art of observing people" Qin Wanfeng taught me wasn't for nothing; I'd long ago seen through her outwardly tough but inwardly gentle nature, only she was too proud to admit it as the leader of a sect.

Afterwards, Mie Tian led a group of Emei elites back to Mount Emei, announcing my crimes to the martial arts world and declaring that Emei would be closed off from the world. Now, the infamous title of "Nine-Foot Lecher" would be with me for life.

Time flew by as I indulged in my wild fantasies, and darkness gradually fell. This place was deserted, with no villages or shops in sight. Although I possessed unparalleled lightness skills, I didn't want to use them, as I'd never experienced sleeping in the wilderness before. Tonight, my wish would finally come true.

I lazily lay down by the newly lit fire, taking out the "Explosive Breathing" manual I'd acquired from Chen Daozhi and began to read it earnestly. The book described a training method: it unleashed internal energy in a sudden burst, stimulating the body's potential to grow exponentially in a short time, increasing strength exponentially. I had never known that true qi could be used in this way. I was captivated by the book's content, completely absorbed in its world.

In truth, it wasn't of much use to me; who in this world possessed two hundred years of internal energy? But I was eager to learn, and besides, there was no harm in learning more. Moreover, I extended the theories in the book to a technique that allowed me to change my size. If I combined this with a disguise technique, even my mothers might not recognize me. Without hesitation, I began practicing this transformation method. Once I

mastered it, I transformed myself into an ordinary seven-foot-tall figure, then disguised myself as a pale-faced scholar. Looking at myself in the stream, I thought, who would know that I was the infamous nine-foot-tall lecherous demon, reviled by everyone in the martial arts world?

Daylight broke, and despite not sleeping all night, I was full of energy, eager to see someone display my masterpiece, the result of a long night's work.

Nanchang wasn't far from Wuhan; it would only take about ten days to walk there. I had arranged to meet my mothers in Nanchang when I left Wuhan, but I didn't know if they had arrived yet. Taking advantage of the quiet surroundings, I unleashed my extraordinary lightness skill and sped off like a wild horse, kicking up clouds of dust as I headed towards Nanchang…



Suddenly, I saw dust billowing ahead, obscuring the sky, and faintly heard cries and shouts. I quickly stopped and walked slowly, wondering what was happening ahead.

Turning a corner, I saw a large group of several hundred people, dressed in rags, dragging children and carrying large bags and bundles, hurrying towards me. I had never seen such a battle before, and I was greatly surprised. I grabbed a young man dressed as a scholar and asked, "Brother, what's going on here?"

The scholar was very polite and didn't get angry when I stopped him. He said to me, "Young master, you are also a scholar, aren't you? The road ahead is impassable. I think you should turn back."

"Why?"

"Prince Ning, Zhou Chenhao, has rebelled!"

"What? Prince Ning has rebelled?"

"Yes, he killed Sun Sui, the Right Vice Censor-in-Chief of Jiangxi, and Xu Kui, the Deputy Military Commissioner of Nanchang, and occupied Nanchang. In just two days, he captured Nankang. The road ahead is chaotic, and the people are displaced, dragging their children along. We all fled from Nanchang."

"No wonder."

"Young master, you should come with us to escape. Nanchang is no longer an option."

"Thank you for your concern, brother, but I have important business to attend to and must go." I declined.

"Take care, young master!"

"Have a safe journey!"

"Farewell!"

"Farewell!"

After parting from the scholar, my emotions were in turmoil. I had arranged to meet my mothers in Nanchang, but who would have thought that Prince Ning would rebel? Now, with the chaos of war, finding them would be difficult. But I am skilled and daring; is there anywhere in the world I cannot go? For a moment, I was filled with heroic spirit. I will meet force with force, and my journey to Nanchang is imperative!

I have always loved excitement, and only when the world is in chaos can I find peace. Now that Prince Ning has rebelled, the world will inevitably be in chaos. As the saying goes, times create heroes, and who wouldn't want to be a hero? After all, I am only a twelve-year-old child, naturally playful, and I don't take this chaos too seriously. Deep down, I secretly hope that this war will last longer, otherwise, the martial world will be too boring.

I let out a long howl and, once again, unleashed my lightness skill, speeding towards Nanchang…


(42)
Eight days later, I finally arrived in Nanchang. Entering through the north gate, I found myself at the Yuelai Inn, and without a word, headed there.

These past few days, I'd felt something was amiss. Aside from the group of refugees I'd encountered eight days prior, I hadn't seen anyone else fleeing. Along the way, the soldiers, just as in the Celestial Empire, treated the people with utmost respect. Scholars, farmers, artisans, and merchants all performed their duties, and the entire society, whether in towns or villages, was orderly and harmonious. This was hardly the chaos of war; it was clearly a time of peace and prosperity!

It seemed this Prince Ning was quite capable. His strict military discipline was evident in one of his soldiers' kindness in telling me, when I entered the city, that the Yuelai Inn offered the best service, treating me with exceptional courtesy. Seeing that I was a scholar, he even suggested I seek help from the Prince Ning's residence in the city if I encountered any difficulties.

Since entering the city, I'd seen that every citizen was warm and hospitable, treating each other with utmost respect. Seeing this peaceful and prosperous scene, I couldn't help but waver in my belief that Prince Ning was a traitor. I was also puzzled as to why such a benevolent prince would rebel against the court.

As soon as I entered the inn, I encountered a young scholar arguing with the waiter at the door. I listened as I got closer.

"Waiter, please, have mercy and let me stay here a few more days," the young scholar pleaded.

"Scholar Ma, it's not that I'm unwilling! It's just that you already owe half a month's rent, and the owner simply won't allow it."

"Waiter, I know you're in a difficult position, but the travel expenses I just borrowed from Prince Ning's mansion were stolen on the way!"

"Scholar Ma, how could that be? Under Prince Ning's rule, Nanchang City has long been a place where doors are left unlocked at night. How could there be thieves?"

"Waiter, don't say you don't believe me, I don't believe it either. I've been staying in Nanchang City for almost a month, and everyone here is warm and hospitable. How could there be thieves? But my money was indeed stolen, that's a fact."

"Scholar Ma, I'm in a difficult position..."

"Waiter, I'll pay for this gentleman's stay. Here, is that enough?" Having heard their conversation, I was also very curious. This Scholar Ma seemed dignified and upright, not like someone who would lie. So I gave the waiter a silver ingot. Upon seeing it, Scholar Ma quickly grabbed the waiter, saying, "No, no, you can't do this. How can you let me pay your debt?"

I laughed heartily, "A bosom friend afar brings a distant land near. Everyone has difficult times, and perhaps one day you'll be able to help me."

Scholar Ma was overjoyed, "Indeed, indeed! You have such talent, sir! What a beautiful line, 'A bosom friend afar brings a distant land near.' I'll owe you this favor. May I ask your surname?"

"My surname is Xu, and my given name is Qi, the Qi of 'to stand up.' Come, let's sit down and talk. Waiter, bring some good wine and food, and arrange a superior room for me." I pulled Scholar Ma upstairs to a private room.

After a few pleasantries, I got straight to the point. "Brother Ma, I'm new to Nanchang, you must give me a proper introduction."

Scholar Ma raised his cup to me, saying, "Brother Xu, you're too kind. Nanchang is a place of outstanding people and abundant resources, a land of heroes. Everyone here is warm, hospitable, and courteous. Brother Xu, you'll surely find it comfortable to stay here for a few days."

"Oh, really? All I've seen and heard on my way to Nanchang is that the people praise Prince Ning's governance. Just now, the waiter mentioned that people here don't lock their doors at night, is that true?"

"Indeed, it is."

"But why was the silver you borrowed from Prince Ning stolen?"

Scholar Ma's face changed, and he coldly said to me, "Brother Xu, do you not believe me?"

I quickly explained, "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding. Brother Ma is handsome and distinguished, certainly not a liar."

Seeing my sincere and earnest expression, Scholar Ma finally believed me: "Brother Xu is righteous, I am ashamed." He paused, then added:

“I was just leaving the Prince of Ning’s mansion when a little girl of about twelve or thirteen bumped into me. I didn’t think much of it at the time, but when I got back to the inn, I realized my silver was gone, so I suspected that the girl had stolen it.”

“Brother Ma, did you see what that little girl looked like?”

“I’m so sorry, I was in a good mood at the time, and I didn’t pay any attention when she bumped into me. But then I saw that the little girl was dressed in white, and after bumping into me, she ran off to a little girl of the same age in green.”

White? Green? Two little girls of about twelve or thirteen? I looked out the window, thinking, “Where have I seen this kind of person before? Where?”

Seeing me staring blankly out the window, Ma Yuan called out repeatedly, “Brother Xu, Brother Xu… what’s wrong?”

I was startled and came back to my senses: “Oh, no, I’m sorry. I was thinking about something and got lost in thought.” I then asked, “May I ask what brings Brother Ma to Nanchang?”

Upon hearing this, Ma Yuan’s eyes lit up, and he straightened his back, as if he had grown taller. He said to me, “Brother Xu, you are unaware of this. I am neither good at literature nor martial arts! Later, I heard my teacher say, ‘Read ten thousand books and travel ten thousand miles.’ Therefore, I have taken it upon myself to travel the world and write a travelogue that is unprecedented and unparalleled.”

“Brother Ma, you are truly talented. You will surely become famous throughout the world.” I then said, “According to you, Brother Ma, you are very knowledgeable about the strange and unusual stories and news of the world?”

“I dare not, I dare not. I only know a little about the affairs of the world.” I knew that this was a polite and modest statement, and I became very interested in him. I asked him, “Brother Ma, you are modest. You have traveled the world and have broad knowledge. May I ask you to tell me about the current state of the world?”

Upon hearing this, Ma Yuan’s expression darkened, and he sighed, “Alas, our great empire is now beset by internal and external troubles, and is full of loopholes.”

"How so?"

Ma Yuan put down his chopsticks, straightened his posture, and began his long-winded explanation: "The current Zhengde Emperor ascended the throne twelve years ago. His Majesty is outstanding in both civil and military affairs, and after seven years of meticulous governance, he finally ensured that everyone in the land had food and clothing. However, five years ago, he suddenly moved out of the palace, proclaimed himself Duke of Zhenguo, built the Leopard Chamber, and resided in Xuanfu, never holding court again. If it weren't for the Empress Dowager forcing him to publicly pledge never to leave the capital, the Emperor would have long since traveled far and wide. Therefore, he could only recruit beauties in the Leopard Chamber and Xuanfu, indulging in debauchery daily, with singing and dancing, and debauchery day and night, entrusting important state affairs to the eunuch Liu Jin.

Liu Jin is a treacherous and cunning man; once he gained power, he controlled the court, eliminated dissidents, and turned a once prosperous country into a chaotic mess in just five years. To please the Emperor, he recruited beauties from all over the country and further expanded the Leopard Chamber..." Heavy taxes were levied on various regions. Now, this has finally provoked widespread resentment among the people, causing discontent and alienation from the central government. The princes are furious, especially Prince Ning, who, under the pretext of "eliminating the treacherous eunuch and purifying the emperor's mind," sought to unite the princes and force the emperor to issue an edict to execute the traitor Liu Jin. Unexpectedly, the eunuch Liu Jin had foreseen this and falsely accused Prince Ning of treason to the emperor. The emperor was enraged, forcing Prince Ning to rebel. This matter is known throughout the land, but it has been kept secret from the emperor alone.

What is most worrying is that the countries on our celestial borders are stirring. The Mongol prince has launched an attack on Xinzhou; recently, the Western Regions' demonic sect has also announced its intention to attack various martial arts sects in the Central Plains; the Tusi (local chieftains) of Sichuan and Yunnan are showing signs of disloyalty; the Russian Kingdom in the north is eyeing us covetously; the Korean army in the northeast is gathering and awaiting orders; and even more infuriating is the repeated incursions of the Japanese into our celestial borders, causing immense suffering to the coastal fishermen! "

After listening to Ma Yuan's grand discourse on the state of the world, I was deeply shaken." In the secluded Xiaoyao Valley, only my aunt, Yu'er, would occasionally tell me about the state of the world, but what she spoke of was only twelve years ago. Now I realize that the world is not as peaceful as it appears; the undercurrents are far more treacherous, the waves more terrifying than any martial arts struggle.

Will my mother and the others be in danger?

Don't blame me; I'm just a child who looks like an adult. Right now, my first thought is for my family, not for the world.

I spent the entire day with Ma Yuan at the table in the room, listening to him talk about the world, tell anecdotes, and various strange and bizarre tales. Overjoyed, his playful nature arose, and he said to him, "Brother Ma, we brothers hit it off immediately, how about we become sworn brothers?"

"Good..."

"Heaven above, Earth below. I, Xu Qi (Ma Yuan), today become sworn brothers, to share blessings and joys..."

(Forty-three) Jiang Shaling
and Ma Yuan chatted all day, and by evening Ma Yuan was already drunk, but I, with my unparalleled martial arts and profound inner strength, was not only not drunk at all, but also full of energy and unable to sleep.

With nothing to do, I might as well sneak into the Prince's mansion at night. I have been very curious about this Prince Ning ever since I arrived in Nanchang. What kind of person is he? I really want to see him with my own eyes.

I couldn't wait any longer, so I came out of my room, jumped onto the roof, and carefully looked around. This Prince Ning's mansion must be the largest mansion in Nanchang, and it must be located in the center of the city. With this thought, I exerted my strength and used my lightness skill to leap into the city.

Sure enough, a grand mansion stood in the very center of the city, brightly lit, with numerous hidden sentries throughout the courtyard, and heavily guarded outside the gate, constantly patrolling back and forth. This must be the Prince Ning's residence!

To be honest, my lightness skill is now unparalleled; how could these soldiers possibly spot me? However, as the saying goes, caution is the best policy. The Prince of Ning dared to rebel; he must have many capable and extraordinary men under his command. It only took me a quarter of an hour to get from the inn to the Prince of Ning's mansion, but it took me nearly half an hour to get from outside the mansion to the main residence.

It was now past midnight, and I was cautiously peeking through the roof tiles of the main residence.

There were only four people inside. A man and a woman were sitting in the upper seats with their backs to me. Opposite them were two little girls, one in green and one in white. I really wanted to see what the Prince of Ning looked like, but with his back to me, how could I see him? I could only look at the two little girls, and what I saw almost made me shout, "It's her!"

"Shaling, do you know your crime? We just caught you, and you're trying to run away again." The man's tone was stern, like an elder reprimanding her. So, she was the unruly girl Jiang Shaling I had met in the small town after leaving the valley! "Father !

" Jiang Shaling called out in a sweet, coquettish voice. Even though I was far away, I felt my bones go weak at her words.

"I don't want to! Staying in the mansion all day is so boring, I'm going to die!" Jiang Shaling pouted, protesting.

"You silly child, you're thirteen years old already, still running around like a wild girl. It seems Shaling has grown up, and we can't control you anymore. We'll have to find you a husband to keep you in line." I could tell the woman speaking with her back to me was joking.

"No, no, Mother, you're teasing Shaling. I don't want to get married! I want to stay by your side forever. I don't want those stinky men touching me!"

"What are you saying? Men should marry when they're old enough, and women should marry when they're old enough. Tomorrow I'll have someone find you a husband, so I can save myself some trouble." The man said curtly, seemingly impatient.

"Wah—" Jiang Shaling suddenly threw herself into the woman's arms, crying loudly, "Mother, Father is so mean. I don't want to leave you, I don't want to, I don't want to, boo-hoo—"

The woman gently patted her back, comforting her, "Alright, my good daughter, don't cry. If you cry again, you'll turn into a little kitten." Turning to the man, she said angrily, "Why are you being so fierce? My daughter is mine. I was just joking. I won't let my daughter be ruined by you stinky men so soon."

"Hmph, that's right, my daughter is indeed yours, but don't forget, she's also my daughter. The court is forcing me to start a rebellion, and I'm already annoyed these days. You shouldn't interfere. Your daughter is always causing me trouble. It would be best if she got married as soon as possible," the man shouted.

"Hmph, don't forget our agreement from ten years ago. Without my help all these years, where would you be today? What? Now that you haven't even accomplished your great task, you're already thinking of discarding me like a used tool?"

"You..." The man seemed speechless with anger. He suddenly stood up and strode towards the door. Passing the green-clad maid, he said fiercely, "Little Green, you keep a close eye on Miss. If there's a next time, I'll feed you to the dogs!" With that, he strode away.

The beautiful maid named Little Green timidly replied, "Yes." Her eyes widened in terror, her whole body trembling, as if she couldn't believe that Prince Ning would treat her like this!

Jiang Shaling had already stopped crying, staring blankly in the direction Prince Ning had left. A moment later, she turned back (I looked closely, and there were no tear stains on her face; it seemed she had been faking it). With an innocent expression, she asked her mother, "Mom, what's wrong with Dad today? Why was he so fierce? What was that agreement you two were talking about?"

The woman lovingly stroked her head and said softly, "Your father has been troubled by official business lately, and he's in a bad mood. Don't worry about him; he'll be fine in a few days."

"But you haven't told me about your agreement yet! What was it? Mom, tell Sha Sha!"

"Alright, it's getting late. Why should a child know so much about adult matters? Go to sleep."

"No, no, Mom, please tell me!"

"Alright, Xiao Lü, take Miss back to her room to sleep. I'm tired too; I'm going to sleep." Saying this, she got up, pushed Jiang Sha Ling aside, and walked alone into the inner room.

Jiang Shaling was stunned for a moment, then muttered to herself, "Strange, what's wrong with Father and Mother today? They're acting so strangely. This is the first time they've ever been so mean to me."

Xiao Lü came over and tugged at her sleeve, saying, "Miss, go to sleep. It's so late, there's nothing fun to do. If you keep making a fuss, Master and Grandmother will blame me again."

Jiang Shaling was about to retort at first, but then her eyes darted around, and she nodded to Xiao Lü, saying, "Alright, let's go to sleep now."

After saying that, she pulled Xiao Lü into the inner room on the other side...

(Forty-four) Secrets of the Prince's Mansion
Seeing Jiang Shaling's bright little eyes, I knew that the little girl would definitely be unable to resist the temptation, and there would definitely be a show to watch that night. So I carefully followed Jiang Shaling.

The Prince's Mansion at midnight was unusually quiet. Apart from the chirping of insects in the grass, there were only the footsteps of the patrolling soldiers and the crackling of the torches. Jiang Shaling and Xiao Lü were very obedient, immediately bathing and changing upon entering the house. Although I heard the sounds of splashing water, I didn't care, because in my mind, only the bodies of adult women could catch my eye. Two thirteen-year-old girls? I knew without looking that they wouldn't be much better, 100% ordinary and unremarkable.

So, I quietly lay on the roof, closed my eyes, and listened to the surrounding sounds, waiting...

Sure enough, half an hour later, a small figure darted out of the previously dark boudoir, her two small eyes gleaming with a cunning light like a raccoon's in the darkness. Who else could it be but Jiang Shaling?

After she left, she walked furtively to the left, and I followed behind her, not daring to be careless. We encountered several patrolling soldiers on the way, but she easily dodged them. It was clear that this wasn't the first time.

However, I felt a chill in my heart. Jiang Shaling was simply going to find her parents, but I didn't expect that even just an inner courtyard would be so large and heavily guarded.

Soon, we arrived at a large house. Although it was almost four in the morning, a dim yellow light still shone from inside. Who was in the house? Why wasn't they asleep so late?

Jiang Shaling moved like a cat, her footsteps silent, clearly skilled in light-footed martial arts. She crouched down under the window, made a hole in the paper windowpane, and peered inside.

I followed suit, lifting a tile from the roof and looking inside as well.

I looked around; there was no one there. In the center of the room was a large table, covered with official documents and folding papers. Candlelight flickered around it, and a woman stood with her head bowed before the table, seemingly reviewing documents. Sometimes she would pause to ponder, sometimes she would write a few strokes.

I was greatly surprised. Could a woman really be reviewing official documents and handling affairs privately?

"Who is it?" The woman suddenly looked up, stood up, and casually threw her pen, which flew towards the window like an arrow. It was incredibly powerful; this woman was quite skilled. And at that moment, I finally saw her true face.

She was beautiful and graceful, appearing to be about twenty-five or twenty-six from afar. Her hair was styled in a high, swaying bun, exuding femininity. She wore an embroidered silk skirt and silk shoes with floral patterns. Her hairpins were inlaid with tortoiseshell, and she wore dazzling pearl earrings, radiating brilliance. She was about 1.6 meters tall, and her ample breasts and rounded buttocks were faintly visible. Her figure was curvaceous and incredibly alluring, with skin as white as snow. She was a giant version of Jiang Shaling, but her voluptuous figure far surpassed Jiang Shaling's.

*Snap!* A writing brush pierced the window paper. "Mother, you're so mean! Now I have to take a bath again!" Jiang Shaling pushed open the door and entered. She held the writing brush in her right hand, her face a patchwork of black and white, like an ink painting, her eyes glaring angrily at the woman.

With a chuckle, the woman covered her mouth with her delicate hand and giggled, "My dear daughter, it's you! I haven't seen you for a while, have you been acting?"

"Waaah, Mother, you're teasing me. I was just looking out the window at what you were doing and you threw a pen at me, waaaah—" Jiang Shaling used the same trick again.

The woman didn't call for a maid. Instead, she took a towel from the shelf and pulled Jiang Shaling to the washbasin, saying, "Who told you to be so naughty? I didn't know it was you just now. Luckily, I felt something was off and didn't use my full strength, otherwise you might be disfigured now."

After washing off the dirt, Jiang Shaling immediately perked up and tugged at her mother, saying coquettishly, "Alright, Mother, I came so late to ask you about that promise you made with Father ten years ago."

"Didn't I tell you, children shouldn't meddle in adult matters?"

"No way! I'm thirteen now, not a child anymore! Tell me, please, Mother—I've been so curious I couldn't sleep all night." She tugged at her mother's clothes, swinging them left and right, refusing to leave.

The beautiful woman lovingly stroked Jiang Shaling's beautiful hair, saying, "Ah, ten years have passed. Time really flies. In the blink of an eye, Shaling has grown into a young woman. Well, Shaling has grown up and it's time for her to know some things."

She pulled her back to her original seat, picked Jiang Shaling up, and said, "Come, let me tell you something. Don't be surprised when you hear it. Don't interrupt me while I'm talking, okay?"

Jiang Shaling nodded, "Mother, I won't interrupt. Please tell me."

The beautiful woman tightened her arms around her, looked up at the vast darkness outside the door, and fell into memories. After a while, she said in a confused tone:

"Fifteen years ago, the late Emperor Xiaozong died suddenly in the palace, and the Crown Prince disappeared without a trace. Panic gripped the court, and princes rose up in arms to fight each other for the throne, leading to chaos in the martial world and ultimately plunging the land into turmoil. However, in Shaanxi, Prince Yan, Jiang Wuyai, ruled with benevolence and loved his people, ensuring their peaceful lives, unlike the chaos elsewhere in the land. The Jiang family has been a military family for generations, with ancestors who fought alongside the founding emperor.

Despite this, the Jiang family is sparsely populated; in my generation, there are only my sister and me. Besides my elder sister Jiang Rubing and myself Jiang Rushui, we have no brothers or sisters. (Jiang Shaling's eyes widened, clearly unaware that her mother was a descendant of Prince Yan. And I...)" I had never heard my mothers mention it, so I lay motionless on the roof, listening intently.

At that time, the world was in chaos, and the three regions of northern Shaanxi were occupied by my Jiang family. One day, my father was suddenly assassinated, and my sister and I were devastated. From then on, no one in the world cared about my Jiang family. This was because my father had no children, and with his death, there was no successor; this vast empire would ultimately fall into the hands of outsiders. Therefore, the princes and ministers tried every means to win over my Jiang family. By the time my sister, Princess Bing, came of age, she was already a renowned beauty, and as the first heir of the Jiang family, various families sent envoys to propose marriage, all hoping to possess the empire and the beauty for themselves.


(45) Princess Bingfeng:
"My sister and I were personally taught by our father from a young age the ways of the world, including military strategy and law. He even taught us martial arts, which were only learned by women in the martial arts world. He raised us as boys. After ten years of diligent study and practice, we have finally achieved great things.

My sister, Rubing, in particular, is exceptionally talented. Her literary and martial arts skills are several times better than mine. She compares herself to Bowen and vows to make a difference for the people of Shaanxi. My sister is resolute and bold, even more so than men. On the day she tore her dress at the banquet for the princes' envoys, she swore to the heavens that she would inherit her father's business and would never marry casually.

At first, not only the various princes, but also most of the powerful families in the Yan King's territory wanted to see her." It was a joke, but she rose through the ranks, becoming both general and prime minister, seizing power in just two years.

Although her elder sister was a woman, she possessed superb martial arts skills and was adept at military strategy and tactics. She selected talented individuals in the north, vigorously promoting commoner sons, and for a time, the Yan army's elite troops were unparalleled, earning the admiration of all the princes. In the headquarters, three thousand guests gathered, a gathering of literary and military talents, with many masters among them. The most renowned were known as the Three Heroes and Four Outstanding Individuals.

The leader of the Three Heroes was General Zhao Yun, a famous general from northern Shaanxi, undefeated on the battlefield, and known for his humility and loyalty, deeply respected by all the generals. The second of the Three Heroes was Mr. Wu Yong, known as Little Zhuge Liang, skilled in military and political strategy. Assisting my elder sister in managing political and military affairs; the last of the three heroes is your father's Left General Fang Longxi. Although people say that General Fang is not as good as the scholar in governing, nor as good as General Longxi in commanding an army, no one else could independently hold the line during the crisis in Shaanxi.

The four heroes are in charge of external affairs, specializing in intelligence gathering across the land, known as the "Hidden Four Heroes," a fact kept secret from outsiders. Even I don't know their names now, so I won't elaborate.

My elder sister manages the political affairs, vigorously suppressing powerful families and unafraid of local forces, earning her the elegant name of Princess Bingfeng among the people. But the tallest tree in the forest catches the most wind, and she inevitably attracts jealousy. At that time, the missing crown prince had also been found, and the world was in turmoil. The unification was restored, and Crown Prince Zhou Houzhao ascended the throne. However, his sphere of influence remained mainly in the Guanzhong region. Although Nanjing was the capital, it was a battleground for various warlords. The best way to stabilize the Central Plains was to unite with northern Shaanxi.

Zhou Houzhao was cunning and repeatedly sent envoys to propose marriage for himself, but all his attempts were rejected by Princess Bingfeng. Even if he hadn't already married an empress, his sister wouldn't have been interested in such a mediocre man.

Moreover, the princess and General Zhao were deeply in love, but although General Zhao was a gentleman, he was rigid and already had a wife. Therefore, their feelings remained within the bounds of propriety, and they dared not overstep their bounds. However, for her to marry someone else was an impossible task.

(Zhengde 1st year) The Mongol prince attacked Yanmen Pass, and my sister and I personally led troops to counterattack. We decisively defeated the prince outside Yanmen Pass. The Shaanxi army was far from the border, leaving the interior vulnerable. Unexpectedly, Zhou Houzhao suddenly launched a major attack on Shaanxi. Although the various princes and the court were outwardly united, who would have thought that Zhou Houzhao would launch an attack at such a crucial time in Shaanxi, when the Mongol army was fighting? Such opportunism is hardly the behavior of an emperor.

General Zhao, who was originally stationed in Beiping, heard the news and led his army to meet the attack. The court's forces outnumbered our defenders tenfold. Although General Zhao's military strategy was outstanding, the disparity in strength was too great. Even after using clever tactics to defeat the reinforcements several times, he was ultimately defeated. At this time, my sister learned of the invasion and rushed to our aid from afar, but unfortunately, she arrived too late. General Zhao had already... He died on the battlefield.

Enraged, his elder sister launched ten decisive campaigns, driving the enemy out of northern Shaanxi, capturing Kaifeng, and then advancing into Hedong, directly attacking Zhou Houzhao's stronghold in Guanzhong, shaking the entire realm. His sister even issued a proclamation to the world, intending to form an alliance with the princes to overthrow the court. The King of Dian and the King of Han, angered by Zhou Houzhao's unprovoked military action against his vassals, also rose in rebellion.

At that time, our Celestial Empire was in chaos; the new emperor had only recently ascended the throne, and the people longed for peace. Therefore, the renowned, reclusive sect, Lengyue Nunnery, dedicated to maintaining order, sent its chief disciple, Yue Chunxin, to travel far and wide, attempting to mediate the matter.

However, news of her death arrived from Beiping. Lady Zhao, upon learning of her husband's demise, tragically passed away, leaving behind an orphaned daughter entrusted to the care of the princess. My elder sister was even more enraged and vowed to take Zhou Houzhao's life.

Yue Chunxin and I were like sisters; during the Luoyang alliance, if Yue Chunxin hadn't persuaded my sister, Shaanxi would never have recognized Zhou Houzhao as emperor. This time, my sister launched a major campaign, and Yue Chunxin went to Shaanxi to politely persuade her to cease hostilities, but was firmly rejected.

My sister considered Yue Chunxin a confidante, so she didn't feign sincerity, but unexpectedly, Yue Chunxin, wholeheartedly devoted to the court, betrayed our trust.

In the past, Yue Chunxin and I were close confidantes, and she recommended many talented people to my sister. Therefore, many generals and officials in Shaanxi had some connection with Leng Yue'an; it wasn't apparent before, but now it became a major threat.

My elder sister… Driven by a desire for revenge against Zhou Houzhao, she inevitably acted somewhat arbitrarily. The powerful families, suppressed for years, harbored resentment. With Yue Chunxin's support, they colluded with officials influenced by Lengyue Nunnery to attack my sister, demanding she negotiate peace with the court and abandon the alliance.

Suddenly, northern Shaanxi was in turmoil, beset by internal and external troubles. Even Princess Zhaojun, who had been my sister's childhood friend, reached a consensus with them, forcing my sister to relinquish military and political power.

Although my sister held most of the military and political power, many generals and officials were recommended by Yue Chunxin. Therefore, she suddenly found herself unable to command effectively, her army trapped in Hedong, her advances and retreats uncertain. At the same time, she suffered betrayal from her clan and close friends, causing us immense heartache.

We initially thought that as long as we agreed to Yue Chunxin's conditions, revenge would be a dish best served cold, and once our sister quelled the chaos in northern Shaanxi, there would be plenty of opportunities for revenge later.

However, we underestimated Yue Chunxin. To prevent our sister from raising an army again, she and Zhou Houzhao proposed that our sister marry him as a concubine. Their plan was brilliant; once our sister married into the royal family, she would inevitably lose control of the military in northern Shaanxi, and she couldn't very well turn against her husband's family!

At the time, our sister's army was far away, and all the supplies were in the hands of those officials. Princess Zhaojun repeatedly sent letters, hinting that our sister should agree. Our sister locked herself in her military tent, pondering for a day and a night, and finally made her decision. She accepted Yue Chunxin's conditions and agreed to marry into the royal family. Yue Chunxin's wish was fulfilled, averting a war that could have overthrown the new dynasty, and earning her a reputation for benevolence and righteousness. It was

only pitiful for our sister, forced to marry into the royal family; a phoenix from heaven, imprisoned in a golden cage. For the sake of Zhou Houzhao's empire, Yue Chunxin actually abandoned years of sisterly affection and disregarded our past sisterly kindness. Shasha, do you think Yue Chunxin is the most heartless and ungrateful person in the world?

Jiang Shaling was sometimes happy and sometimes heartbroken when she heard her mother's words. She was about to reply when her mother asked her a question, but before she could speak, her mother began to mutter to herself.

"What kind of person is my sister? Even if she was forced to marry, how could her will be shaken? She and Zhou Houzhao made a three-point agreement. First, although she married into the royal family, the royal family cannot interfere with her actions. However, my sister also promised that as long as Zhou Houzhao is alive, she will not return to Shaanxi. Second, she will live in a separate room, and no one may enter her residence without my sister's permission. Third, the daughter of General Zhao will be made the Prince of Yan, and the royal family cannot interfere with the succession of the Prince of Yan's title for any reason."

At that time, Zhou Houzhao and others dared not pressure the princess too much, lest they make things worse. They also unanimously agreed that while establishing a woman as queen was utterly absurd, it was merely a formality. Therefore, both sides reached an agreement.

In the first year of the Zhengde reign, the elder sister married into the royal family. Although the royal family welcomed her with the rites due to a noble consort, the elder sister showed no joy. On the day she left northern Shaanxi, the generals loyal to her traveled a thousand miles to see her off, all the way to the Yi River, their resentment still burning. The elder sister, dressed in plain clothes, played her zither on the banks of the Yi River as she departed. The wind howls, the Yi River is cold; the hero departs, never to return. "

At this point, Jiang Rushui was already in tears, sobbing uncontrollably...


(46) Jiang Rushui,
the wind is howling, the Yi River is cold, the hero departs, never to return...

I, lying on the roof, heard Jiang Rushui's recollection-like narration from inside the house, and finally understood the feelings of Jing Ke when he parted from his friends before assassinating the Qin emperor. I never imagined that there would be such an extraordinary woman in our dynasty more than ten years ago. Suddenly, I had a strong desire to meet this Ice Phoenix Princess.

Jiang Rushui sobbed for a long time, while the mischievous Jiang Shaling was surprisingly silent, her little face expressionless, frighteningly calm.

After a while, Jiang Rushui stopped crying and continued in a choked voice: "After my sister, Princess Ice Phoenix, left, the regime in northern Shaanxi changed hands. Zhao Ziling, the only six-year-old orphan of General Zhao Yun, succeeded as the King of Yan, becoming the first female king of our Great Zhou. Military and political affairs were presided over by Mr. Wu Yongbu, the Little Zhuge, one of the Three Heroes." "And I suffered a similar fate to my sister, marrying Prince Ning and becoming his consort. The following year, I gave birth to you, my precious Shasha."

Jiang Rushui released her tightly embracing right hand and lovingly stroked Jiang Shaling's long, black hair. She paused, then continued, "Your father, Prince Ning, also came from a family of military generals, but his governance was inferior to mine. A little over a decade ago, Nanchang Prefecture was devastated, all industries were ruined, and the war had forced many families to relocate. In just two years, the population was less than half of what it used to be. Your father, Prince Ning, was a trusted general of Zhou Houzhao at the time, and as a reward, he bestowed me upon him to assist him in governing.

At that time, I harbored resentment because of my sister's situation and didn't do my best to govern for him. To persuade me to help, he made a pact with me—I would assist him in handling state affairs, but he couldn't interfere in anything I did, not even entering my room without my permission.

The freedom I've fought for over the years is entirely because I still have value to him. Do you understand?" Your father was ambitious and painstakingly planned for ten years, all for the day he could ascend the throne, become above all others, and rule the world!

At that time, we made a pact that I would only bear him one child. If it was a boy, he would take the surname Zhou; if it was a girl, she would take my surname Jiang. That's why you have the surname Jiang, not Zhou like your father.

Alright, that's all I have to say. Shasha, feel free to ask if you have any questions.

Jiang Shaling seemed unable to accept the fact that her father was an enemy. After a long pause, she said in a dry voice, "Mother, I... I don't know what to do.

Right now, I'm so confused." Jiang Rushui patted her little head and said, "Yes, it's understandable, you're only thirteen. But it's alright, the women of the Jiang family have always been superior to the men. Just remember, the Zhou family is your enemy, the greatest enemy of our Jiang family. When you grow up, you must avenge your aunt, and your mother!"

Jiang Shaling was very troubled and whispered to her, "But... but he is my father." "My father has always doted on me, how could I possibly seek revenge against him?"

Jiang Rushui's expression immediately changed upon hearing this, and she coldly snorted, "Doted on? Shasha, that's just a facade he puts on because he's afraid of me. If I didn't help him with political affairs, would he dote on you? I often hear him complain that I'm a barren hen, only capable of bearing daughters, not sons. He even says he gave birth to you, a daughter who's neither male nor female, more mischievous than any boy."

Jiang Shaling cried, "No, no... I don't believe it! My father loves me so much, I don't believe it's all fake, it can't be..."

"Enough, Shasha!" Jiang Rushui's temperament changed drastically. She shouted, suddenly raising her hands to tightly grasp Jiang Shaling's shoulders, shaking her violently, "Remember, Shasha, your surname is Jiang, not Zhou. The Zhou family is our enemy. Everything they did to our Jiang family was fake, bringing us only pain and hatred."

"No—, Mother, what's wrong with you?" Don't force me, I don't believe Dad would treat me like that. "Having said that, she suddenly broke free from Jiang Rushui's grasp and ran towards the door.

Jiang Rushui chased after her, stopped outside the door

, and called out loudly, "Shasha—", facing the direction she had gone, her right hand stretched out in the air, fingers slightly open, as if trying to grab the departing Jiang Shaling. After a long while, Jiang Rushui returned to the room, looking utterly dejected, and sat on the chair by the window like a puppet, motionless.

I, who had only broken into the Ning Prince's mansion out of curiosity, was now extremely shocked. I never expected to hear royal secrets. Such things belonged to the royal family and could not possibly be spread in the martial arts world.

I couldn't help but feel deep sympathy for the two Jiang sisters. As political victims, the two Jiang sisters had lived under the control of their enemies for more than ten years. What helplessness, what sorrow! Originally enemies, now family, is it true or not, is it hatred or kinship? Even I, an outsider, felt a sense of bewilderment and helplessness.

The temperature was dropping in the middle of the night, and the breeze was getting colder and colder. Living a secluded life in the secluded Xiaoyao Valley, I never imagined such sorrow could exist in the world, and for a time, I was completely absorbed in it. In truth, this situation is most dangerous for a martial artist of my level. For a long time, my Divine Dragon Nine Transformations Divine Skill has lingered between the fifth and sixth levels, unable to break through.

To break through to the sixth level, it's no longer about the depth of skill, but about comprehension. Comprehension is easier said than done; it can only be understood intuitively, not explained in words. At this moment, moved by Jiang Rushui's words, I felt as if I had entered a martial arts illusion, lost in my own inner world. A slight misstep could lead to demonic possession, madness, and forever loss of all connection with the beauties of the martial world.

Perhaps it was due to good deeds in my past life, but a sudden gust of wind blew, chilling me awake. A great shock struck me. There was nothing inherently wrong in the world; it was only the foolish who troubled themselves. This was none of my business; what did it have to do with me? I was merely an outsider; why should I grieve over someone else's affairs?

Ah—, I stood tall and let out a loud roar, releasing all the pent-up frustration in my chest. Suddenly, I felt my power surge, and with a boom, a loud sound resounded in my mind. I had finally mastered the sixth level of the Nine Transformations of Freedom, the Myriad Changes!

"Who dares to break into the Ning Prince's mansion at night!" A delicate shout came from inside the house, followed by a petite figure leaping onto the roof.

Shouts also rose from the Ning Prince's mansion, "Assassins! Catch the assassins—", and countless figures flew out from all over the mansion towards me...

(47) Only Transactions
Some say that the night before dawn is the darkest, but in my eyes, filled with true energy, it was so clear. The thick darkness was like daylight in my eyes, making the young woman in front of me look like a night elf.

The glimpse of her just now had already amazed me, who had tasted all kinds of flowers, and now she stood in front of me like a beautiful snake emerging from its hole.

Time seemed to have left few marks on her face; years of handling official documents had given her a unique intellectual beauty.

"Who are you? How dare you break into my Prince Ning's mansion at night? What are your intentions?" she shouted. As she did so, black figures rushed in from all sides. However, it seemed that Prince Ning, Zhou Chenhao, was not among them, which surprised me.

At this moment, I was already surrounded by people. I could see many archers scattered around in the distance, and their crossbows were all aimed at me without exception.

I laughed heartily with my hands behind my back, a surge of heroic spirit rising to the sky. To be honest, since entering the martial world, I had never encountered a formidable opponent. Several times I had fought, and no one had been a match for me. Now that my divine skill had broken through to the sixth level, I had long wanted to find some people to test my skills.

"Villain, what are you laughing at? Today is your death day." One of the black-clad men roared, and with a wave of Jiang Rushui's hand, his single-edged sword lunged forward to slash at me.

"Hmph, courting death." I sneered. Such speed, which was only first-rate, was nothing to me.

With a gentle flick of my left hand, a surge of powerful internal energy shot out, sending the single-edged sword flying into the sky.

"Ah—, Xuanmen internal energy!" the crowd exclaimed in unison, dumbfounded.

It's important to understand that most internal energy techniques in the martial arts world can only be applied

to an enemy through a medium. For example, if you practice swordsmanship, your internal energy can only reach the enemy through the sword to amplify its damage.

If you practice palm techniques, your internal energy can only be transmitted through contact between your palm and the enemy's body.

"Hmph, you people aren't very skilled in martial arts, but you've certainly seen a lot," I sneered, not even glancing at them. My eyes were only on the elegant woman in white, coldly scrutinizing me. As for the group of men staring at me blankly, sorry, you're all just first-rate fighters; I'm not interested.

"Young hero, may I ask which martial arts master you are a disciple of? Perhaps you could tell me, so as to avoid any misunderstanding?" Jiang Rushui saw that the scholar-like man before her was only about 1.7 meters tall, possessed superb martial arts skills, and looked to be no more than eighteen or nineteen years old. She guessed he must be the closed-door disciple of some reclusive master. At this critical moment, it was not wise to make such a powerful enemy; courtesy before force was the right way.

"I am Xu Qi. I do not know any martial arts master. As for my martial arts, it is merely a family tradition, so let's not discuss it." Trying to find out my background? Not so easy! Does he think I'm a three-year-old?!

"Young brother, seeing that you are not very old, may I call myself 'sister'?" Jiang Rushui had already sensed that this young man meant no harm, and given his high level of martial arts, she felt a desire to befriend him, and her tone became much more friendly.

I was overjoyed and said, "Of course! Sister, having a big sister like you is truly a blessing!"

"Hehe, little brother, you're so good with words." Jiang Rushui giggled, covering her face with her sleeve, followed by a series of undulating movements of her hips and breasts, which seemed to burst into pink light in the thick night, catching everyone's attention. "

Ah, sister, I'm so sorry. I haven't invited my brother down to his room for some tea yet." Jiang Rushui blushed.

"Sister, please don't be offended. Actually, it was my fault. I had just entered the city today and heard that my brother-in-law, Prince Ning, was kind and benevolent in governing the people. I was curious and wanted to meet him, but I was afraid you would blame me, so I came here to take a look. I didn't expect to be misunderstood by you. I am truly ashamed." "Though he said this, his face remained calm, showing not a trace of shame.

Jiang Rushui was secretly furious. This kid was arrogant and looked down on everyone. If it weren't for his unparalleled martial arts skills, which were rare in the martial world, my Ning Prince's Mansion would have already captured him, torn him to pieces, and fed him to the dogs. Although she thought this, she said something else entirely. After all, someone who had endured humiliation for more than ten years couldn't even tolerate this little bit of anger?

"Brother is joking. Please, brother." "Saying this, she gestured with her right hand, inviting me to come inside for tea.

Although I was reluctant, I knew I was in the wrong first, and she had been so courteous. It wouldn't be right for me, Xu Zhengqi, to lose face or be impolite. Relying on my skills and boldness, I didn't refuse and jumped down from the room.

After sitting down in the room where Jiang Rushui had been handling official business, we exchanged pleasantries for a while. Then, Jiang Rushui suddenly dismissed everyone, leaving only the two of us sitting quietly in the room. Only then did she ask the question she cared about most: "Brother Xu, when did you arrive at my humble abode?"

Jiang Rushui's words were vague, clearly implying something.

"What does Sister wish to ask?" I picked up my tea and leisurely took a sip.

Seeing my composed demeanor, Jiang Rushui felt a surge of resentment. Since there were no outsiders in the room, she had no more reservations and bluntly said, "Did you overhear my conversation with Shasha just now?" "

Upon hearing this, I chuckled inwardly. So, inviting me for tea was a pretense; her real reason was to avoid revealing her secrets. Seeing her anxious expression, so unlike the haughty demeanor of the Princess Ning earlier, I couldn't resist teasing her.

"Who is Sha Sha? Is she your sister?"

"You..." Jiang Rushui choked for a moment, her face flushed red, unable to speak. However, she quickly recovered, her heaving chest calming down.

"Hmph, I knew you heard it all along. With your martial arts skills, hiding it from me would have been a piece of cake. Later, you deliberately laughed loudly, which led us to discover it. What do you want? As long as you don't reveal my secrets, just state your conditions."

I was secretly annoyed. This woman was so materialistic; it seemed she only dealt with people through transactions. Couldn't she be a little gentler?

"Not at all, not at all. I am a scholar, and I have always despised merchants who only talk about money and not feelings." "Sister, as noble as a princess, how could you learn from such a mercenary person?"

"Hmph, don't pretend with me. I hate hypocritical and pretentious scholars like you the most. On the surface, you're polite and gentlemanly; but inside you're a bunch of scoundrels, all show and no substance!"

I was stunned. Was I really that despicable?

"Actually, I saw it when you were in the hall lecturing your daughter with Prince Ning." People are valued for their sincerity. I didn't really have any ill will towards Jiang Rushui, so I finally spoke the truth.

After listening, Jiang Rushui remained silent, as if to say that I should handle it myself.

Seeing her arrogant attitude, I was furious, but for the sake of my shameful thoughts, I could only endure it. A true man can bend and stretch, and if he has to bend, it can only bend at the feet of a woman, hehe.

So I used the first move of Xu's method of picking up girls—acting cute and acting adorable, and said, "Sister, it was my fault." "What you said to Shasha just now almost brought me to tears. I feel so much sympathy for your sister's plight."

Jiang Rushui was finally moved and said firmly, "Who needs your pity? The women of the Jiang family are stronger than men; you can't even imagine how resilient we are. As long as you don't tell anyone, I'll be eternally grateful. Who needs your pity?"

Seeing her disbelief, I quickly confessed my feelings: "Sister, don't worry, I won't tell anyone. It's a pity I met you more than ten years too late, otherwise I would definitely help you."

Jiang Rushui scoffed, "Who do you think you are? More than ten years ago, you were just a snotty-nosed brat. What right do you have to help me? Now that you're skilled in martial arts, you can just talk big."

"But I can help you now!"

"You help me? What a joke! My martial arts are inferior to yours, and you don't offer any conditions. How can I believe you'll genuinely help me?"

"Do people have to make a deal to trust each other? I have nothing but sincerity towards you, sister. I sincerely want to help you avenge your great grudge. I don't need to impose any conditions on you."

"Hmph, if you had said these words more than ten years ago, before my sister's accident, I might have believed you. But now, I won't easily trust anyone. My sister and Shasha are the only people in this world I can trust." Jiang Rushui's face was resolute. The world had left indelible wounds on her heart, and the door to her heart had been locked tightly more than ten years ago on the day she parted from her sister.

After hearing her indignant words, I remained silent. The woman in front of me was only about thirty years old. In ordinary families, she should be a wife and mother, but she had carried more than ten years of pain, swallowing her anger and fighting hard for a revenge that seemed almost impossible to achieve.

Of the hundreds of women I had met in my short twelve years, only she could make me feel sympathy and shed tears...

(48) Secret Agreement
At dawn, the dawn in the east was gradually revealed, like peeling away a cocoon.

In this moment of silence, I pondered carefully.

Based on the information I had so far, Jiang Rushui was a person of firm character and a heart of stone. A person who could endure humiliation and survive for over a decade, even bearing a daughter for their enemy, must be no ordinary person. During the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, King Goujian of Yue endured three years of hardship before finally beheading King Fuchai of Wu. And isn't the woman before me now a modern-day Goujian? Would I, a mere "nine-foot-tall lecher," easily succeed with such a person?

Moreover, nominally, she is the powerful Princess Consort of Ning, wielding immense military authority; and, if she's lucky, she might even become the future Empress! How could I possibly tolerate using such a woman—a woman of status, power, ability, and ambition—to achieve my ulterior motives? But I, Xu Zhengqi, have been navigating the battlefield of beauties for over three years; how could I possibly falter? The greater the difficulty, the greater the challenge, and the anticipation of victory is all the more exciting.

With this thought in mind, I made up my mind and said to her, "Sister, I wonder if I am qualified to lend you a hand?"

A glint flashed in Jiang Rushui's eyes, giving me an ominous premonition. She said, "Your brother is exceptionally skilled, with unparalleled martial arts. There are many experts in my Ning Prince's mansion, but none as peerless as you. If I could have your help, it would be like adding wings to a tiger."

"That would be wonderful. How about this, I will avenge you, sister, and you only need to make a promise to me?"

"What promise?"

"No rush, no rush. Let's talk about it after I avenge you. For now, you just need to agree."

"Hmph, you're young, but you have quite a few tricks up your sleeve. If you make a request that I can't fulfill, how am I supposed to deal with it?"

"Don't worry, sister, you can definitely do it."

Jiang Rushui stared at me suspiciously, as if trying to deduce my thoughts from my expression. After a moment, she said decisively, "Do you think I don't know what tricks you're playing? It's absolutely impossible for my Shasha to marry you!"

I was startled; she had almost guessed it. I said, "Since ancient times, love between men and women only requires mutual affection. Although your daughter is only thirteen, anyone can see that she will become a peerless beauty in a few years. However, my request is not like that. Please, sister, don't think that way."

Jiang Rushui sneered twice, saying contemptuously, "Little brother, stop playing games with me. You just want your sister's body, right? As long as you avenge me, what's wrong with giving it to you?" She spoke as if she were someone else, completely disregarding herself!

I was stunned; I never expected that she would see through my thoughts in just a few words.

"Little brother, stop pretending! Look at your clueless face, I can easily fool you!" Jiang Rushui burst into laughter, but the sound was grating to my ears, clearly mocking my youthful naiveté and lack of experience in dealing with people.

After a moment, I understood. It's important to know your own limitations. I'm only twelve, less than a month old, and my social experience is indeed pitifully limited.

"Sister, you're so clever! How could I possibly hide my little schemes from you?"

After laughing, Jiang Rushui's expression turned serious, and she said coldly, "My heart died more than ten years ago. All that's left is this stinking shell. Whoever can avenge me, even if they're just a beggar, I'll marry them."

I felt a surge of annoyance. Wasn't she clearly giving up on herself, treating herself like a commodity to be traded? I wanted to say something to her, to offer some advice, but in her eyes, I was the kind of shameless person who made demands, so I couldn't say a word.

"Where are you staying, little brother?" Jiang Rushui, seeing my awkwardness, changed the subject to avoid embarrassing me further.

"Oh, I'm new here and staying at the Yuelai Inn in the north of the city."

"If you don't mind, why not come to the Prince's Mansion? We can discuss things then." Jiang Rushui said.

"Oh, but I'd rather not. I have a few friends coming to Nanchang, and we've arranged to meet at the inn, so I won't bother you any longer." I declined.

"What are you saying, little brother? Now that we have a pact, your business is my business. Please come to the Prince's Mansion and let me be your host." Jiang Rushui said politely.

"No need... Sister, there are some things on my mind that I'm not sure if I should say." Not wanting to waste time on this, I changed the subject. "

There are no outsiders here, little brother, please speak freely." Jiang Rushui said frankly.

I lowered my voice and said, "Sister, aren't your enemies just Zhou Houzhao, Zhou Chenhao, and Yue Chunxin? I may not be good at other things, but my martial arts are not weak. Why don't I take care of them..." As I spoke, I made a chopping gesture with my right hand.

Jiang Rushui smiled lightly, her eyes flashing coldly, and said, "How can we let them die so easily? I want the Zhou brothers, Zhou Houzhao and Zhou Chenhao, to kill each other, causing them to lose their kingdom and everything, leaving them with a bad reputation for eternity; I want Yue Chunxin and Lengyue Nunnery to be disgraced and wiped out from the martial arts world!"

Her sinister words made my hair stand on end, and the intense hatred in her tone could almost freeze the magma underground.

I had never expected this outcome from my nighttime incursion into the Ning Prince's mansion. Not only did it startle many of the masters in the Ning Prince's mansion, but it also led to a secret agreement with the Ning Princess, wading into the murky waters of the struggle for supremacy.

I don't know if what I did was right or wrong. I made an almost impossible promise just for a woman I met for the first time. Is it right or wrong? Is this what the martial world is like? Are people in the martial world really powerless?

I thought to myself on the way back to the inn...

(49) The Peerless Twin Moons
Since breaking into Prince Ning's mansion, I haven't visited them again. These past few days, I've been worried about my mothers and felt guilty about the agreement. In my spare time, I chatted idly with Ma Yuan. The days flew by in my conflicted mood.

One day, Ma Yuan and I were having a drink in our room when the waiter said, "Gentlemen, would you like to add some other dishes?"

I was getting annoyed with Ma Yuanxia's conversation and said to him, "I'll call you again if I need anything. Hurry up and leave, lest you spoil the young master's mood."

The waiter hurriedly replied, "Yes, yes. It was just a momentary whim. I saw two beautiful ladies come to our shop, and I got carried away and started talking."

"What beautiful ladies?" Upon hearing that there were pretty women, I immediately snapped out of my reverie. The madams should have arrived by now.

Upon hearing my question, the waiter immediately replied with great enthusiasm, "Master Xu, you don't know? Those two women look exactly alike, like they were made from the same mold. That's not all, what's amazing is that they're incredibly beautiful, um, so beautiful, so..." The waiter scratched his head, embarrassed, and said, "I'm not well-educated and not very good at speaking. In short, I've never seen such beautiful women in my life."

My heart skipped a beat, and I asked urgently, "Are they looking for someone?"

The waiter's eyes widened, looking incredulous, and after a long while, he exclaimed in surprise, "Master Xu, you're amazing! You even know about this?"

Ah, it must be them.

I immediately got up, quickly walked out of the room, and strode towards the main hall, without even saying goodbye to Ma Yuan, which aroused his curiosity and made him follow me.

As soon as I reached the main hall, I was struck by its brightness. It was already noon, and the sun was blazing, yet the light inside the room seemed even brighter than the sunlight outside.

It was only because two stunningly beautiful women stood in the center of the hall.

The moment I saw them, I froze, my heart ached, and tears welled in my eyes.

They had lost weight. They had become so thin.

The two beauties before me were currently having lunch at a small table. Although they were sitting upright on stools, their full figures and exquisite bodies drew attention. Due to the angle, their extraordinary faces were directly facing me. The snow-white face towels I had bought for them were nowhere to be seen, and their faces, though weary, could not conceal their exquisite beauty. Their brows were furrowed, and a deep sorrow hung between their brows.

Two pairs of chopsticks rising and falling in unison, two handkerchiefs rising and falling in unison, identical faces, identical movements…

Finally, the tears, no longer brimming, streamed down my face. I leaped forward like lightning to them, choking out, “Second…Mother…”

Hua Yuelan and Hua Yuehui, upon hearing my voice, their hands holding chopsticks trembled violently, and the two pairs of chopsticks fell straight off the table.

The person before me, though not resembling the child I had longed for, was identical in voice, tone, and demeanor to the one I had yearned for day and night. At this moment, I was already eighty percent convinced.

Two pairs of excited, beautiful eyes looked at me with a mixture of doubt and surprise. After a long while, they asked in unison, “You, you…are, Xiaozheng?”

“Second Mother—” I could no longer hold back. Having been separated from my family since childhood, even a few days without my mothers had been enough to torment me. I threw myself into Hua Yuelan's arms and burst into tears.

The people in the hall were astonished. A grown man, seven feet tall, was crying like a child in the arms of his family. Even more unbelievable was that the two stunningly beautiful twins, who looked no more than twenty years old, actually had such a grown son. A murmur rippled through the hall as everyone turned to look at us, eager to see what was happening.

Ma Yuan had also arrived at the hall and saw Xu Qi sobbing uncontrollably. His cries were melodious and poignant, not loud, but they were deafening and deeply moving, touching everyone who heard them.

Hua Yuelan hugged me tightly, and Hua Yuehui also rushed over, opening her arms to embrace my lower back. Unable to bear my sobs, they too shed tears of joy.

"Alright, Zheng'er. You're all grown up now, why are you crying? Everyone's watching you, aren't you ashamed?" Second Aunt said jokingly.

I sat up straight, wiped away my tears, and said with a heavy heart, "Second Aunt, you've suffered so much. You've become so thin after only a few days apart. You must never leave Zheng'er again."

"And you say that? What about you? How did you become like this?" The second aunts' reproaches were identical, drawing gasps of astonishment from everyone in the room.

"This is a long story. Why don't we go to my room and talk?" Looking at the others glaring at the two women with their deadpan, wolf-like eyes, I felt a surge of annoyance. Besides, this wasn't the place to confide in each other; too many people and too much gossip could easily cause trouble.

I pulled the second aunt up, gave some instructions to the waiter, and was about to head back when I bumped into Ma Yuan.

I bowed to him and apologized, "Brother Ma, I was in a hurry to speak with my two mothers today. I'll come back another day to apologize."

Ma Yuan waved his hand understandingly and said, "Brother Xu, please go ahead. It's only natural to have a heart-to-heart talk with family when you meet them while you're away from home. It's nothing to be ashamed of."

After saying goodbye to Ma Yuan, I led my second mother into the house, instructing the waiter to clean the table before closing the door.

"Xiao Zheng, something terrible has happened!" Hua Yuelan suddenly grabbed my hand in a panic.

"Second Mother, don't worry, let's sit down and talk." I pulled them both to sit on either side of me, and the thing I feared most had finally arrived.

Hua Yuehui held my left hand tightly as well.

"We've gotten separated from your sister Yu and the others."

"What?" I was shocked, as if struck by lightning.

I remained silent for a long time before finally exclaiming, "What exactly happened?"

Hua Yuehui said aggrievedly, "It's my fault, Xiaozheng, if you want to blame someone, blame me." Her voice was low, like a well-behaved child who had done something wrong.

"What happened? Tell me what happened first," I said impatiently.

Hua Yuelan straightened her expression and said, "This is what happened. After we parted that day, the ten of us traveled down the river, enjoying the scenery, heading towards Nanchang. Unexpectedly, we encountered a group of refugees who rushed towards us, almost scattering us. We thought we were safe, but in the chaos, Yuehui's veil disappeared, revealing her face. A large group of soldiers who followed the refugees saw her.

Those soldiers were like wolves and tigers, indiscriminate in their lust. Seeing that we were all women, they were lustful and tried to take advantage of us, fighting with us.

These soldiers were of lowly martial arts skills, but they outnumbered us, and we were no match for them. In the end, we had to split up in pairs and go our separate ways ." They broke through the encirclement, and thus everyone scattered.

Hua Yuehui rushed forward and said to me again, "Xiao Zheng, it's my fault. If I hadn't lost my face mask, we wouldn't have fallen apart."

After hearing Hua Yuelan's words, I comforted Hua Yuehui, saying, "Aunt Hui, how can you blame yourself? The world is in chaos right now, that's how things are. And you're all so beautiful, those bandits are all lustful devils, how could they not be tempted? It's not your fault, it's not your fault..."

Seeing that I had forgiven her, Hua Yuehui finally couldn't hold back and threw herself into my arms, bursting into tears. All the grievances of the past few days vanished with her sobs.

It took her a while to calm down.

"It's alright. The mothers are highly skilled in martial arts and incredibly resourceful; ordinary people are no match for them. They'll definitely break through. Besides, you already arranged to meet me in Nanchang. If nothing happened to them, they'll definitely come here. We'll wait at the inn for a few days; they should arrive in no time."

Hua Yuelan made a plan in her mind. In the current chaos, this was the only option; there was no other way but to wait.

Once her worries were relieved, the two mothers, exhausted from the past few days, snuggled up to me on either side and fell asleep.

The two mothers looked identical, but their personalities were quite different. The elder sister, Hua Yuelan, was strong-willed; she slept peacefully, occasionally furrowing her brow but quickly relaxing. She would surely be a wise and capable wife in any major event. The younger sister, Hua Yuehui, was different; she was gentle and frail, and having just cried, she looked like a pear blossom in the rain, evoking endless pity.

Clearly, they hadn't slept well for days. Now, finally having someone to rely on beside them, they slept very soundly.

Afraid of waking them, I remained motionless, letting them lean against me, without helping them to bed. I simply held them tightly, my heart filled with tenderness and love.

It was obvious that the balance of power in the world had been shattered after the Prince of Ning's rebellion, and various factions were stirring. The world was about to face another catastrophe, one that those in the martial arts world could not avoid.

Now, I was not only worried about my lost mothers, but also about the group led by my grandmaster. All my mothers are stunningly beautiful, their beauty captivating and causing a stir wherever they go. The world is so treacherous; how could I not worry? It seems this world isn't as easy as I imagined…

(50) My wish fulfilled
. As evening fell, the two women finally woke up.

“Ah,” Hua Yuehui exclaimed softly, sitting up before realizing she'd been pressing down on me all afternoon. She asked with concern, “Xiao Zheng, did it hurt? I'm sorry, I haven't been sleeping well these past few days.”

“It's alright, being pressed down by my two mothers is a dream come true for many men!” I teased with a grin.

Just then, Hua Yuelan, who had just woken up, lightly punched me with her small fist and scolded, "When we met at noon, I saw you crying so hard, and I thought you had changed your ways. I didn't expect you to be teasing us again now. You really can't change your ways."

"A fair maiden is sought after by a gentleman. Although I am not a gentleman, you two can be considered fair maidens, right? How can you use such a vulgar word as 'teasing' to describe you?" I argued.

"Hmph, I knew you were so eloquent. Enough of that, tell me, how did you end up like this?"

Hua Yuehui pressed on, "Yes, Xiao Zheng, how come you've suddenly shrunk so much from nine feet tall?"

I laughed, feigning mystery, "Try to guess!"

Hua Yuehui persisted, "How could we possibly guess? While the art of disguise in the martial world is exquisite, it can only change appearance, not height. Xiao Zheng, tell us quickly!"

Hua Yuelan remained silent, but it was clear she was also eager to know the secret.

So, I recounted how I encountered the Emei nuns at the inn, how I defeated Chen Daozhi, how I cured the nuns of their poison, and how I obtained and improved the Burst Breath technique.

Before I could finish, the two women's fists rained down on my chest, complaining that I hadn't even spared the nuns of Emei.

I dodged and cried out my innocence, but this only garnered them more sympathy, and the fists rained down even faster.

I dodged and weaved around the table, drawing the relentless pursuit of my stepmothers, creating a lively and amusing atmosphere in the room.

People say that when one is well-fed and warm, lust arises; the ancients were truly right.

Looking at my stepmothers, their faces flushed from the chase, their cherry-like lips slightly parted, panting softly, their fragrant breath like a spring breeze, I felt a burning sensation in my lower abdomen.

Although they knew of my philandering nature and had shared a night of passion with me in the Valley of Leisure, the distinction between mother and son remained, and morality and ethics were paramount. I dared not easily act rashly.

However, ever since consuming the Fire Toad's inner core, the Vermilion Fruit, and that little red snake, my control over desires had become extremely weak; I felt no resistance to beautiful women. Whenever I saw a woman of outstanding beauty, I couldn't resist the urge to possess her; the promise I easily made to Jiang Rushui a few days ago was the best proof of this.

I haven't had any sex drive for quite a while now, and if I don't have a woman soon, I worry I'll become a lovesick fool at such a young age. These two beauties are the perfect remedy, but they won't be so easy to win over; I'll have to plan carefully.

After joking around with my second aunt for a while, I got a little hungry. After the meal, I arranged a superior room for both of them, right next to mine. Some other trivial matters are best left unsaid.

A few more days passed peacefully. These past few days, Hua Yuelan and Hua Yuehui stayed at the inn to wait and inquire about the other women, while I had to search for information everywhere.

Even so, there was still no news of the other women. As the days went by, our mood grew heavier and heavier. The anxious waiting brought me no joy, and the suppressed desire within me began to stir.

This day was another day of disappointment, and I finally couldn't hold back any longer.

During dinner, I specifically ordered the waiter to bring a bottle of baijiu (Chinese liquor), and repeatedly warned them not to approach my room without my permission.

"Xiao Zheng, didn't you say you don't drink? Why are you drinking today?" Hua Yuelan asked curiously, looking at the bottle of baijiu on the table after sitting down.

"Ah, nothing. I haven't been in a good mood these past few days, and I wanted to get drunk," I said in a muffled voice. She

then comforted me, saying, "Xiao Zheng, we know you're worried about Sister Yu and the others. But you can't drown your sorrows in alcohol. There's an old saying, 'Drinking to drown your sorrows only makes them worse.' What's the use of drinking?" Saying this, she snatched the wine glass I had just picked up.

"Yuelan, give me back the wine. I just want to get drunk today, please grant my wish," I pleaded.

Seeing my displeasure, Hua Yuehui quickly tried to smooth things over, "Sister, just let him be. He's been going out every day these past few days to gather information, but to no avail. He's worried about Sister Yu and the others' safety, and he can't calm down. Keeping it all bottled up will make him sick. Why don't we drink too? Tonight, let's drink until we're completely drunk!"

"Alright, alright, let's drink until we're completely drunk!" I snatched the wine glass from Hua Yuelan's hand, ignoring her reproachful look, filled it to the brim, and downed it in one gulp. Instantly, a burning sensation surged from my throat down to my lower abdomen. It ignited the desire within me, almost to the point of being uncontrollable.

Having already planned to make things happen tonight, I wasn't going to restrain myself; I just wanted to get drunk as soon as possible. The intoxication slowly enveloped me, and I became somewhat hazy. I opened my mouth and sang, "Life is short, only a few autumns, let's not stop until we're drunk! My beauty is in the east, the Yellow River flows in the west, come on, let's have some wine, let's not stop until we're drunk, don't let worries and troubles weigh on our minds."

This song was taught to me by Ma Yuan when he was drunk, I don't know who wrote it, but it's widely circulated. The lyrics reveal an extremely decadent view of life, and also express a naked pursuit of women, which seems extremely lewd.

If I hadn't been drinking, I wouldn't have dared to sing such a song to the two women under normal circumstances.

Although the lyrics are vulgar, the melody is beautiful, the rhythm is long and lingering, pleasant to the ear.

As soon as I started singing, Hua Yuelan frowned, while Hua Yuehui clapped her hands and hummed along.

Dinner ended with my singing.

Hua Yuehui had been drinking with me until she was drunk, and now her pretty face was flushed, her eyes were blurry, and she was a little weak. Although Hua Yuelan insisted on not drinking, we two forced her to drink a few cups, and she was slightly drunk.

While they rested, I quickly set up a soundproof and confusing array in the room, and then closed the doors and windows tightly to prevent outsiders from breaking in. Then came the main event. Hua Yuehui was already drunk and lying on the table...

Hua Yuelan was still somewhat sober and asked strangely, "Xiao Zheng, what... uh, what are you doing? Why did you close the door?" I rushed to her and grabbed her pair of fair hands.

Hua Yuelan let out a soft cry, about to say something, when I turned and pressed my head against her cherry lips. Her delicate body trembled, letting out a soft moan as if electrocuted. Though she tried to struggle, she had drunk quite a bit of wine, leaving her limbs weak and completely unresponsive.

She collapsed softly into my arms, her face flushed red to her ears, and though she tried to cry out, only muffled sounds came out; she couldn't utter a sound. I am a seasoned lover; when else would I kiss her? I entwined my tongue with hers, sucking on her sweet saliva with even more force, drawing saliva from the tip of her tongue into her mouth.

Soon, Hua Yuelan was completely limp in my arms.

Skillfully sucking on her delicate tongue, drawing out her sweet nectar, she was breathless from my kisses, letting out a series of soft moans through her delicate nose. I kissed her fragrant cheeks, her long, thick eyelashes, her fragrant, thick hair, and her smooth, fair neck passionately. As we walked, Hua Yuelan couldn't help but blush and gasp, whispering, "Xiao Zheng, no, uh...we...can't..."

Ignoring her cries, my left hand gently stroked her soft hair, then moved down from her pretty face to her jade-like neck, while my right hand caressed her slender waist, slowly kneading it, gradually increasing the pressure.

"Yuelan, don't be afraid. Confucius said that a virtuous and graceful woman is sought after by a gentleman. Father has disappeared without a trace, and you two are practically strangers. He's been with you for over ten years, wasting so much of your precious youth. As your son, I have to make it up to you."

Hua Yuelan's body was intensely stimulated, her breathing quickened, and the itching sensation grew stronger, causing her to involuntarily twist her waist. Taking advantage of the moment, I cupped her firm, sensitive, and high breasts in my left hand. The touch was warm, soft, and supple, yet smooth and moist. Even through her bra, I could feel how full, well-proportioned, supple, and elastic her breasts were.

Hua Yuelan felt a slight pleasure in her chest; her budding nipples, stimulated by the various sensations, had begun to harden.

Taking advantage of her moment of dazed absorption, my well-trained hands finally unleashed their power, quickly stripping her naked.

I looked at Hua Yuelan lying flat on the bed, her snow-white, exquisitely beautiful naked body fully revealed before me. Her slender, jade-like waist was exposed, her thighs smooth as silk, the soft, beautiful lines extending to her bare feet. Her white abdomen was flat, and her small, delicate breasts were as lovely as buds about to bloom, as if carved from white jade.

Two pink nipples stood proudly atop her jade peaks, like two luscious red grapes, already flushed from my caresses. Her waist was slender and almost bent, her abdomen flat and wrinkle-free, a patch of soft, black pubic hair extending from her abdomen to her crotch, her long, straight legs radiating a captivating luster.

Her smooth, rounded buttocks aroused desire, and at the base of her abdomen, where her legs were tightly pressed together, was a patch of dark, soft pubic hair. Her buttocks were mounded, and a red line was faintly visible at her peach-like clitoris, at the tip of which a delicate, agate-like bud stood erect. Her exquisite and refined body was breathtakingly beautiful. Hua Yuelan felt embarrassed by my gaze and slowly closed her beautiful eyes, which would enchant any man, and said in a soft voice, "Xiao Zheng... you must treat me well in the future..."

The soft candlelight cast a light glow on her, as if draping her in a thin veil, giving her an air of purity and innocence. Her long, beautiful hair was slightly disheveled, and her delicate eyebrows were raised in a beautiful arc. Her delicate forehead, small nose, and a faint blush on her cheeks, pure and bright like flowing water, evoked a feeling of tenderness.

Her slender, white neck, high, firm breasts, and incredibly thin waist, along with sparse, glossy black hair, concealed her alluring entrance. Below were two long, shapely legs; her skin, smoother than a baby's, seemed coated in cream, shimmering with a soft light, making her appear like a perfect sculpture, irresistibly alluring.

My blood surged, and boundless desire consumed my mind. The young woman's fair skin was more captivating than ever before; her youthful, smooth thighs parted weakly, incredibly alluring. The mound of flesh in my hand, like jade, began to slowly change.

She began to moan, and I seized the opportunity to gently turn the beauty in my arms to her side, pressing her body against the bed with her back to me. The ruggedness of my masculinity and the fragility of her femininity were perfectly complemented by this display.

Her delicate body writhed wildly, unable to bear it any longer, and I sounded the charge. I demanded more, the pleasure twisting and turning relentlessly like the strange tentacles of an octopus. That exhilarating feeling spread through every nerve, to every layer of skin, every blood vessel, and even to the depths of my heart.

Repeated cycles of intense, suffocating, and dazed sensations, the physical touch constantly pulled me from the paradise of ecstasy back to the reality of this repressive, insatiable desire, driving me to assault the world's most heavily guarded frontier again and again, savoring the boundless pleasure of victory.

I held her tightly, welcoming her passionate kiss. My tongue slipped into her small mouth, licking every pearly tooth, every inch of her soft oral cavity, entwining and teasing her tongue as I tasted it, greedily sucking the sweet saliva from her mouth.

My large hand slowly moved upwards from her smooth, tender abdomen, caressing her firm, full breasts through her clothes with varying pressure, occasionally squeezing her hardening nipples with my thumb. My other hand stroked her back, slowly lifting the back of her shirt to reveal her entire snow-white, soft back, kneading her body forcefully.

Knowing that resistance was futile, Hua Yuelan completely relaxed, enjoying the wonderful sensations I brought her. She broke free from my greedy mouth, letting out high-pitched, beautiful, and heart-stirring moans…

After the storm, the fortress had long been breached. Hua Yuelan lay motionless on the bed, lost in a deep coma…

But I was still not satisfied. I strode to the table and pulled the lovely woman's exquisite body into my arms. My lips unceremoniously sealed her alluring mouth, greedily sucking the sweetness and fragrance of her soft petals.

Under my strong embrace, the lovely woman went limp, clinging tightly to me as if without support. Feeling my tongue pry open her lips and invade her mouth, she couldn't help but extend her fragrant tongue to resist. Our lips intertwined, and waves of dizziness washed over her.

In her intoxication, Hua Yuelan realized that her body had become burning hot. After a long while, our fiery lips finally parted. She breathed softly, burying her head deeply in my chest.

I reached out and cupped Hua Yuehui's pretty face in my hands. Before she could even react, my lips were once again pressed against her delicate cherry lips.

"Mmm..." Hua Yuehui's body stiffened, like a wooden doll, but under the guidance of my skillful and practiced tongue, she began to react awkwardly. This awkwardness was something I, a seasoned lover, was incredibly excited about. My tongue parted her smooth lips, darting into her sweet mouth, moving with ease.

As I moved, she gradually relaxed, her small hands, which had been gripping my arm tightly, slowly loosening and sliding down. For a moment, the only sound in the room was our heavy breathing.

I released her only when she was almost breathless from the kiss. Looking at her flushed face, my pride was indescribable.

She was so beautiful and captivating.

Hua Yuehui gasped for breath, sticking out her small, fragrant tongue to lick her cherry lips. This unintentional little gesture was so alluring that even a man like me, accustomed to beautiful women, felt my heart race.

Suddenly, she wrapped her arms around my neck and pressed her red, cherry lips against mine. After tasting the flavor, she actually took the initiative. I was startled, then reached out and embraced Yun'er's delicate body, passionately kissing her burning cherry lips. One hand gently caressed her pink back, making Yun'er thoroughly enjoy it.

After a while, the two separated, panting. I smiled as I gazed at Hua Yuehui, her cheeks flushed. Her delicate, rosy face was free of any makeup, yet it made

her even more charming and lovely. She possessed a unique allure.

Slender and graceful, her fair complexion was captivating, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, her snow-white skin smooth and tender, her waist supple and slender. She wore thin flesh-colored stockings that made her fair legs appear long and straight.

A pure white dress stretched taut over her full, high breasts, revealing her fair arms and shoulders. The exquisite curves and firm, beautiful lines of her youthful body were fully displayed. The dress was gently tied at the waist with a thin belt, and the two front panels overlapped, partially covering her legs, making them appear and disappear. A fringe around the hem added to the dress's flowing effect.

Her sleeping face, rosy and fair, was delicately veiled in a soft blush. Her small, cherry-red lips were slightly upturned, vibrant and alluring, captivating the senses

. Her small, delicate nose was straight and refined, outlining a seductive cherry-like mouth. The lines were soft and smooth, and her cheeks, like the moon, were exquisitely beautiful. The open neckline of her dress revealed a section of her snow-white neck, adding to the allure. A tight-fitting dress clung to her slightly protruding breasts and slender waist, further arousing the senses.

What scene could truly capture the most enchanting moment: a beauty asleep in spring?

Her skin, flawless and delicate, radiated a soft, jade-like quality. Her long, flowing black hair cascaded naturally across the white sheets. Her full, firm breasts rose and fell with her breath, a captivating and alluring sight. Beneath the tight white silk dress, her soft, slender waist and slightly rounded, delicate buttocks were perfectly accentuated. The dress was short, just covering her thighs, revealing her pink, round, and translucent knees and her beautifully shaped, alluring calves.

My desire reignited, and with a roar, I swept her up to the bed and pressed down on her...


(Fifty-one)
The next morning,

the sisters awoke to find Xu Zhengqi, who had been misbehaving in their room the previous night, gone. Hearing shouts coming from the courtyard, they were relieved—the little rascal was practicing his martial arts.

"Sister..." Hua Yuehui blushed, her head bowed, not daring to look up, and whispered Hua Yuelan's name in a voice barely audible.

Clearly, she was still bewildered by what had happened the night before.

Hua Yuelan sat up from under the covers, looking at her younger sister's shy expression, and couldn't help but tease her, "Little sister, last night when I was sleeping, I don't know which bastard was yelling louder than thunder, it kept me awake."

"Uh, sister, you, you're so mean. You yourself are also..." Hua Yuehui was about to continue when Hua Yuelan pounced on her, her hands reaching for her ticklish armpits. "Giggle... Sister, sister, you, stop it, giggle... I won't say anything more about you."

Hua Yuelan gave a light "humph" and said, "Let's see if you dare to say anything more about me, or I'll tickle you."

Hua Yuehui pouted and muttered, "Sister, this isn't fair. You can talk about others, but I can't talk about you. Last night you yourself were also..."

Before she could continue, Hua Yuelan spread her hands as if to scratch. Hua Yuehui immediately shut up.

After a moment of silence, Hua Yuehui softly asked, "Sister, what should we do?"

Hua Yuelan, after a moment's thought, replied easily, "What else can we do, sister? We've both been with him... From now on, we belong to Xiaozheng."

"But what about Batian..." Hua Yuehui hesitated before speaking.

"Batian has been missing for over a decade, his fate unknown," Hua Yuelan explained. "Besides, as Xiaozheng said, our relationship with Batian was merely nominal, a wasted decade of our youth, squandering the most precious years of our lives.

Although Xiaozheng is young, he's an adult to everyone. This matter is between you and me, between heaven and earth, and we won't let outsiders know. What's wrong with that?"

Hua Yuehui carefully considered these words and found them very reasonable; the heavy weight on her heart finally eased slightly.

"Let's not think about it anymore, let nature take its course," Hua Yuelan said. "Hurry up and get dressed, or Xiaozheng will make fun of you again." The two of them began to dress.

"Ouch—," they both cried out in pain as soon as they got out of bed. Hua Yuehui saw that her sister was in the same boat, and couldn't help but giggle. "Sister, you're still nagging me. Didn't you do it with Xiaozheng again last night? How could you be so reckless? You're supposed to be the older sister."

Hua Yuelan lightly punched her and scolded, "If you hadn't screamed so loudly, I wouldn't have gotten carried away and done it with Xiaozheng again. It's all your fault."

"Giggle—" Hua Yuehui giggled, her previous dejection gone. "Sister, you got a taste for it and became greedy. How can you blame me?"

"Alright, I warned you earlier, and you changed your mind in just a moment. Let's see how I deal with you." With that, Hua Yuelan pounced on her, trying to burrow into her arms.

The two sisters, who had just been wearing barely any clothing, were now flailing about, their arms and legs flailing, creating a

scene of vibrant, sensual beauty in the room… Just then, the door creaked open!

The sisters were startled and stopped simultaneously, all four of their beautiful eyes turning towards the doorway…

I had just finished practicing my martial arts and was worrying about how to persuade the “Twin Immortals of Mount Hua” when I pushed open the door and was unexpectedly met with such a sensual scene.

On the large bed, two stunningly beautiful women were lying on top of each other.

Hua Yuelan was on top, Hua Yuehui on the bottom.

Both were disheveled, their hair loose, their bodies exposed, yet each possessed her own unique allure.

Hua Yuehui, pinned beneath me, had her clothes pulled almost down to her breasts, only her nipples remaining hidden by the fabric. Her breasts were flattened by Hua Yuelan, the cleavage pressed into a straight line, a sight that infuriated me—how could such beautiful breasts be subjected to such abuse!

Hua Yuelan, on the other hand, offered a different kind of allure. Her upper body was intact, but her lower garment was almost ripped off, her skirt pulled up to her thighs, revealing her pink panties without me even looking down, with faint black marks visible…

Writing this is too slow; in reality, all of this was only what I saw the instant I entered the room.

But that fleeting temptation almost made me lose control, but thankfully I had already slept with her last night, otherwise I would have made a fool of myself.

It was clear the two sisters completely approved of what I had done last night. Every beginning is difficult; these two sisters, playfully bickering and laughing, were a good start. Later…

hehe, I couldn't help but think smugly.

"Hmph, what are you laughing at?" the two sisters questioned in unison. "Why didn't you knock before coming in?"

I chuckled, feigning ignorance. "What? You need to knock before entering your own room?"

"But we're both sleeping in this room now," they said again in unison. I loved hearing them talk at the same time; it felt strange. Wait, something's not right. Last night?

I always confront my doubts directly.

"That's strange. You're twins. Why didn't you have any telepathic connection when we were doing 'that' last night? Weren't you always telepathically connected?"

The two sisters spat in unison. Hua Yuelan said, "Xiao Zheng, how come you're thinking about that kind of thing?"

Hua Yuehui said shyly, "We've never done 'that' before. You still have the nerve to ask us."

I declared loudly, "Of the three unfilial acts, the greatest is having no offspring. The matter of husband and wife is a matter of great human relations; what is there that cannot be discussed? Although the three of us are not yet husband and wife in name, we have already lived as husband and wife in reality. I will certainly formally marry you all in the future."

Hua Yuelan replied softly, "Right now, you are still our mother and son; what talk of formal marriage? My sister and I have been orphaned and destitute since childhood, and our late Master Jin has already passed away. As long as you don't mind our age and fading beauty, we will be eternally grateful."

Hearing her say this, I retorted angrily, "Second Aunt, you raised me from childhood. Don't you know what kind of person I am? Although I, Xu Zhengqi, am passionate, I am not unfaithful. Only women abandon me; I never abandon women." Realizing my tone was too harsh, I deliberately teased them.

"Who dares to say you're old and faded? Unless they're not men or are practically blind."

The two chuckled and said, "You're the best at sweet talk and flattery."

I cried out that I was wronged and said, "How can you say it's flattery? Your strength is obvious. You were tied for second place on the Hundred Flowers Martial Arts Ranking more than ten years ago, the dream girls of all the men in the martial arts world..." There was a hint of sourness in my tone.

"Hmph," Hua Yuehui scoffed, "I never wanted to be on the Hundred Flowers List. It's all that Bai Xiaosheng's fault. If I hadn't needed his help back then, I wouldn't have let him see my true colors."

Hua Yuelan added, "Yes, ever since I was on the Hundred Flowers List, a whole bunch of little followers have been following me around all day. I didn't even have any freedom for a while."

"Hehe, it's a pity I wasn't born a few years earlier, otherwise I would have definitely helped you two get rid of those little followers."

"Hmph, even though you were born more than ten years later, you still bullied us sisters, didn't you?"

I laughed heartily. Who told you to be so tiny, you've all bewitched me...


(52) The Princess's Summoning (Part 1)

These past two days, I've been enjoying the bliss of having two women on my left and right, completely shaking off the gloom of the past few days. But my worry for my lost mothers hasn't lessened at all.

That day, the waiter suddenly came to report that a military officer was looking for me outside the door.

Upon stepping outside, I saw a young man in blue armor, standing ramrod straight like a javelin.

Seeing me, he immediately knelt on one knee and announced loudly, "I am here on the orders of our Prince to bring Young Master Xu into the residence for a chat."

Ha! I've only ever bowed to others, never to anyone else. Besides, I grew up in a remote mountain valley and knew nothing of military etiquette.

For a moment, I was at a loss. I helped him up, saying, "Brother, there's no need for such formality. Stand up and talk. Besides, you're older than me; this is too much."

The young soldier clasped his hands in a fist salute, saying, "Young Master, you're too kind. Please come in with me."

This soldier spoke crisply and directly, without beating around the bush, showing his discipline—perfect for my taste.

I instructed the waiter to inform the Hua sisters of my visit to the Prince's residence.

Out of military curiosity, I kept asking him about the army along the way, but he only said one thing: "I'm sorry, young master, we soldiers only follow orders, and we know nothing else."

This was the first time I'd encountered such a rebuff since venturing into the martial world

. This man wouldn't mention anything beyond orders, clearly indicating their strict discipline and capable leadership.

The more he acted this way, the more interested I became.

Moreover, I greatly admired their commander and was eager to see what kind of person he was.

Since he knew nothing, I wisely stopped asking.

The Prince Ning's mansion wasn't far from the inn. I'd passed by it a few days ago while inquiring about the mothers in the city, but hadn't gone in to look for Jiang Rushui.

Upon entering the mansion, not a single soldier on duty came to question us; they only glanced at us from afar before turning away, ignoring us completely.

A short while later, just when I thought we were about to enter the main hall, the young soldier led me aside, around to the back of the building.

I asked, "Brother, wasn't it your prince who wanted to see me?"

He replied, "Young Master Xu, don't worry. You'll know when we get there." He then led the way, ignoring me.

"We're here."

Just as I was wondering what was going on, his voice suddenly came from ahead.

"Young Master, please come inside. My master has been waiting for you for quite some time." He then turned and left.

Before me was a large courtyard, filled with flowers and plants. In front of the main gate was a small bridge. Under the bridge was a small pond, its water crystal clear, with several goldfish swimming within—red, white, and blue.

As I stepped onto the bridge, the fish seemed startled and scattered in all directions. Seeing these fish reminded me of my carefree days learning martial arts in the valley.

Innocent, romantic, and carefree.

"Young Master Xu is truly a refined gentleman, having the leisure to admire the spring scenery in the pond while keeping his appointment," a beautiful, ethereal voice came from inside the house.

That voice...it was familiar.

A stunningly beautiful woman emerged gracefully from the room, dressed in snow-white robes, her hair styled in a unique courtly hairstyle. It was none other than Jiang Rushui.

I chuckled and said, "So it's Princess Ning who summoned me. I was just wondering why Prince Ning, a complete stranger to me, would seek me out."

"Could it be that the Princess has been lonely for so long, finally unable to bear it any longer, and has come to me to quench her thirst?" For some reason, the moment I saw Jiang Rushui, I felt an urge to flirt with her, though I knew very well that the more I teased her, the further we would drift apart emotionally.

Jiang Rushui smiled slightly, unperturbed, displaying the grace of a noblewoman.

"Young Master Xu is quite the joker, but Ru Shui didn't summon you here just for a laugh."

"No one visits without a reason. Since the Princess has summoned me, there must be important matters to discuss. Why waste time on empty pleasantries?"

"Alright, Young Master Xu is straightforward, so I'll get straight to the point." Jiang Ru Shui paused, gathering her thoughts, and said, "What are Young Master Xu's views on the current state of affairs?"

"Please forgive my ignorance, Princess, but I'm new to the martial world and my information is limited. I'm not very familiar with the current situation." I spoke frankly.

"Then, does Young Master know that Prince Ning is about to launch an attack on Wuchang?"

"Oh, is that so?" It turned out that Prince Ning, Zhou Chenhao, was no longer in his residence. No wonder I hadn't seen him.

Jiang Ru Shui glanced at me disdainfully, as if to say that besides my martial arts skills, I was useless.

I smiled slightly at him, completely unconcerned.

“The vanguard under Prince Ning has already set up camp thirty miles outside Wuchang City, just waiting for the main army to arrive so they can capture Wuchang.” Seeing that I had no reaction, Jiang Rushui had no choice but to continue speaking.

“Scouts have reported that Zhou Houzhao has sent his three tigers, Ma Yongcheng, Qian Ning, and Jiang Bin, to lead troops to reinforce us.”

“Three tigers? Are they Zhou Houzhao’s three tiger generals?”

Jiang Rushui was stunned upon hearing this, looking incredulous. “You haven’t even heard of the Eight Tigers of the Capital?”

I shook my head helplessly.

“Since Zhou Houzhao ascended the throne, Liu Jin, along with Ma Yongcheng, Gu Dayong, Gao Feng, Luo Xiang, Jiang Bin, Qian Ning, Zhang Yong, and others, have been given important positions.

These eight were originally Zhou Houzhao’s old acquaintances, who used to follow their master on excursions and outings. Their actions against our Jiang family suited his tastes quite well.”

Today, the Crown Prince has been promoted to Emperor, and these men are seizing the opportunity to offer up hawks, hounds, songs, dances, and wrestling matches, hoping to gain his favor. Zhou Houzhao is overjoyed and naturally values these former acquaintances even more.

However, these eight men usually abduct women and force innocent women into prostitution to please Zhou Houzhao, committing all sorts of evil deeds. They are known as the "Eight Tigers" by the people, and their cruelty is unimaginable. "Jiang Rushui said.

"Oh," I said dismissively, "So they are just eight sycophants who flatter their superiors, bully their inferiors, and prey on the people.

What's there to be afraid of if Zhou Houzhao sends three of these men to lead troops to help?"

"Hmph, don't underestimate these Eight Tigers of the capital. Zhou Houzhao is, after all, the Emperor of the Great Zhou, with many soldiers and generals under his command, and countless good generals. Why would he only send these three tigers to help?" Jiang Rushui looked inscrutable.

"Why?" "

Let's start with Ma Yongcheng. He's a scholar, resourceful and cunning, a master of military strategy. Back then, when he besieged my Beiping city and killed my sister's general, it was his scheme that led Zhou Houzhao to devise it." Jiang Rushui gritted her teeth, seething with resentment.

I didn't know how to comfort her, so I could only silently feel her boundless hatred.

She remained silent for a long time before calming down and continuing, "Then let's talk about Qian Ning and Jiang Bin. Zhou Houzhao has two great passions: lust and talent. He often adopts any promising young man he likes as his son. In just a few years, over 100 people have received this title, including Qian Ning and Jiang Bin.

Among these adopted sons, Qian Ning and Jiang Bin are the most favored.

Qian Ning wasn't originally surnamed Qian; he changed his surname to Qian after being sold to the eunuch Qian Neng when he was young." He was cunning and shrewd, known as the "Cunning Fox." Although cunning, he was exceptionally skilled in archery, rumored to be able to hit a willow leaf from a hundred paces. He was deeply admired by the martial Zhou Houzhao.

Zhou Houzhao didn't live in the palace, but instead built a separate residence outside the imperial city—the Leopard House.

Qian Ning contributed greatly to the construction of this new residence. It is said that Zhou Houzhao often slept drunkenly with Qian Ning as his pillow in the Leopard House. Officials, waiting for court for a long time without seeing him, would know the emperor was about to appear whenever they saw Qian Ning lazily emerge. Tell me, isn't Zhou Houzhao incompetent and tyrannical? Does such a person deserve to be emperor? "

I nodded.

"Jiang Bin, originally a frontier general, was exceptionally brave.

During the suppression of the Liu Liu and Liu Qi uprising, he was hit by three arrows, one of which struck his face, but he showed no fear, pulled it out, and continued fighting." When Jiang Bin was presented to the emperor for his military achievements, he spoke eloquently about military strategy, which greatly pleased Zhou Houzhao. As a result, Jiang Bin was kept by Zhou's side. Zhou jokingly called him "Xiahou Dun of our time," indeed a formidable general of the era.

On one occasion, Zhou was playing with a tiger in the Leopard House. Unexpectedly, the usually docile tiger suddenly became aggressive and attacked Zhou. He hurriedly called for Qian Ning to come to his rescue, but Qian Ning hesitated, while Jiang Bin subdued the tiger in time.

Although Zhou Houzhao boasted, "I could handle it myself, why would I need you?" he was inwardly very grateful.

Afterward, Jiang Bin gradually replaced Qian Ning as the emperor's favorite. Emperor Wuzong even destroyed the residences of the Mingyu and Jiqing wards west of the Leopard House in the capital to build the "Adopted Son's Mansion" for Jiang Bin and others.

How could such a trio of wisdom and courage not worry Prince Ning? "


(53) The Princess's Summoning (Part 2)

After listening to Jiang Rushui's story, I was unconvinced: "What the Princess says is indeed true, but to say that Qian Ning is a fierce general of this era is not enough just because he can subdue a tiger."

Jiang Rushui said: "Hmph, do you think there are many people in this world who can subdue a tiger so easily?"

I laughed: "Hehe, indeed, there are very few ordinary people who can subdue a tiger. But if it were us martial arts people, a second-rate master would be enough to easily subdue a tiger with bulging eyes and a white forehead."

"Oh, really?" Jiang Rushui was somewhat skeptical, "Have you ever seen a tiger? I've heard that fierce tigers and ferocious beasts often wreak havoc in the mountains and fields, and sometimes even if the people of an entire village go out together, they may not be able to kill it." Obviously

, Jiang Rushui, who usually lives in the deep palace, has never seen a real tiger, and is afraid of it just from hearing about it. Perhaps women are born with a fear of certain animals.

"I grew up in a deep valley, and often kept company with some ferocious birds and beasts." "This tiger isn't as terrifying as it seems. Judging by strength, with the Princess's current skills, she could easily kill over a dozen tigers."

"Is that really so?" Jiang Rushui was still somewhat skeptical.

"Indeed!" I nodded firmly.

"Actually, why should the Princess worry about Prince Ning? The two brothers killing each other is exactly what you want, isn't it?"

"Hmph, I'm not worried about Zhou Chenhao. I'm afraid he'll be defeated early, and if he can't shake Zhou Houzhao's foundation, it'll all be for nothing."

I was taken aback. This woman really meant what she said; she was ruthless enough. I couldn't help but feel a little wary of her. I didn't want to end up losing more than I gained; that would be a huge loss for me.

"Actually, I'm also going with Prince Ning on this expedition. I asked you to come and protect me." Jiang Rushui finally revealed the purpose of her trip.

I suddenly understood and said, "So you want me to be your bodyguard." "

Hmph, besides your decent martial arts skills, what else is worth mentioning?"

Ha, she's using reverse psychology. Want me to put in more effort? That depends on what you offer!

"Why does Your Highness need to provoke me? Although I am not talented, I read extensively in my youth and have some knowledge of military strategy." I paused, looking at Jiang Rushui's indifferent expression, feeling a burning resentment.

I continued, "The art of war says, 'Know your enemy and know yourself, and you will never be defeated; know yourself but not your enemy, and you will win one and lose one; know neither yourself nor your enemy, and you will be defeated in every battle.' May I ask if Your Highness knows the relationship between these three tigers?"

Jiang Rushui smiled knowingly, and the room instantly brightened. Her smiling face radiated beauty as she said to me, "Ma Yongcheng is a man of extraordinary wisdom and integrity. He is the peacemaker among the eight tigers, always taking the first step back."

"A moment of patience brings calm; a step back opens up a vast sky." " It seems difficult to get to this person!"

"Indeed. But it's easier to get to Qian Ning and Jiang Bin." Jiang Rushui said.

"Oh, why would Your Highness say that?" I straightened my back and leaned forward slightly, intrigued.

"Think about it, Jiang Bin has stolen the emperor's favor, how could Qian Ning be unwilling? That's why Jiang Bin is wary of him at every turn! Jiang Bin was originally a border general, and he was deeply afraid that Qian Ning would harm him, so he boasted to Zhou Houzhao about how valiant and skilled the border troops were, enticing Zhou Houzhao to exchange border troops with the capital troops in order to secure his own power.

Our Great Zhou Dynasty's ancestral rules forbid the exchange of border troops and capital troops. Because if the border troops are weak, the Mongols will invade; if the capital troops are weak, the border troops will become a scourge. This system is designed to strengthen the emperor's power.

Zhou Houzhao disregarded the fierce opposition of his ministers, broke the ancestral rules, and transferred border troops to the capital, establishing East and West Offices, commanded by Jiang Bin and Xu Tai."

Jiang Bin, having gained military power later in the war, was poised to surpass Zhou Houzhao. From then on, Qian Ning hated him intensely, constantly finding fault with him to embarrass him in front of Zhou Houzhao.

Even more ridiculous, Jiang Bin encouraged Zhou Houzhao to leave the capital for a trip to the Northwest. This was quite appealing to Zhou Houzhao, who prided himself on his martial prowess and was arrogant and conceited, as he had always dreamed of displaying his prowess on the vast grasslands and creating an unparalleled legacy.

"Laughable," Jiang Bin continued, "as far as I know, he's nothing but a reckless brute with no strategy." He then glanced at me meaningfully, as if implying that I was the same kind of person as Zhou Houzhao. He added,

"Jiang Bin also told him about the many beautiful women there, which naturally increased his interest even more." In the second year of the Zhengde reign, Zhou Houzhao and his entourage arrived in Xuanfu in a grand procession to build the "Zhenguo Mansion."

Do you know why it's called the "Zhenguo Mansion"?

In fact, Zhou Houzhao proclaimed himself "Grand General of Military Affairs and Commander-in-Chief," issuing all official documents under the title "Grand General of Military Affairs," and changed his name to Zhou Shou. Later, he further bestowed upon himself the title of "Duke of Zhenguo," ordering the Ministry of War to archive his records and the Ministry of Revenue to distribute his salary.

Isn't that laughable? Throughout history, no emperor has ever lowered himself to the status of a subject, truly treating state affairs and politics as a child's game. "

This Zhou Houzhao is indeed quite incompetent," I said with a smile, "Uh, Your Highness, weren't we just talking about the relationship between Qian Ning and Jiang Bin? How did you bring up Zhou Houzhao?"

She snorted and remained silent .

I broke out in a cold sweat. This woman seemed to hate Zhou Houzhao so much that she wanted to tear him apart, even bringing him up in casual conversation, cursing him, and mocking him...

The atmosphere in the room became extremely awkward. Unable to bear the uncomfortable atmosphere, I took the initiative to change the subject, saying, "Now that Qian Ning and Jiang Bin have been ordered to come to our aid, they are also wary of each other." "How about this, Your Highness? Send someone to infiltrate the imperial army, spread rumors, and use a divisive tactic. That should be effective."

Jiang Rushui lowered her head and pondered for a moment, then nodded, "Excellent, that's very good. But who should we choose?" She then looked at me. A

spy? No way! A sudden idea flashed through my mind.

"Your Highness can joke too! Rumor has it that the Jiang family has three heroes and four outstanding individuals, all exceptional people. And the four outstanding individuals are even rumored to be undercover spies, gathering intelligence. I suppose Your Highness already has people in the imperial army?"

Jiang Rushui remained unfazed, speaking with unbridled confidence, "I didn't expect Young Master Xu to be so meticulous, drawing this conclusion from just one sentence I mentioned on the rooftop. It seems, indeed, one should look at a person with new eyes after three days."

I was furious. According to her, I was just a fool before?
