[Fantasy] Gods and Demons Among Flowers (Complete) - Chapter 31

Chapter 177 The Separation of Fate (Part 1)

I can't even explain how I got home. Surrounded by so many beautiful women, I seemed to have lost all interest, sitting alone on the edge of the bed, deep in thought, my face clouded with worry.

"Honey, what happened? You've been sitting there looking so gloomy ever since you came back. Talk to your sisters about it, don't keep it all bottled up inside!" Vivian, seeing my distressed expression, stopped teasing me and instead sat beside me like a sweet child, massaging my shoulders and comforting me.

"Yes, yes, honey, we're your closest lovers, we should share everything," the women said sweetly.

"I..." Thinking about how these women would have to bear this responsibility for me, I felt a pang of guilt. I'd rather they live happily than have their lives miserable. Perhaps this was a selfish thought on my part.

"Husband!" Vivian, seeing my hesitant expression, once again used her tried-and-true tactic, nestling her full, voluptuous body in my arms, her hands wrapped around my neck, whispering sweetly in my ear.

I always seemed unable to resist the allure of Vivian's beauty, especially when her captivating body writhed in my arms; a fire always burned within me, and I completely forgot my previous responsibilities.

"Vivian, don't do this, or I'll lose control and devour you!" I said helplessly, suppressing the rising desire within me.

"No, I don't want to! If you don't tell me, I won't get aroused!" Vivian, seeing my helpless expression, a hint of delight flashing in her eyes, persisted.

It was still about this topic; women's curiosity was still quite strong. I sighed inwardly, and my rising desire gradually subsided.

Sensing something amiss, Vivian, though unsure why my heightened desire had suddenly vanished, still coaxed me into revealing my secret. "Honey, what's wrong?" she asked sweetly. Her concern warmed my heart, and I almost blurted out my most cherished secret.

"Oh, Vivian, please don't pressure me like this, okay? The fewer people who know, the safer you all are. I don't want to implicate you." After much deliberation, I decided against telling them, leaving the question unanswered.

"Honestly, I only asked because I care about you! You have no respect for me at all!" Vivian sat up from my lap, pouting and complaining. Seeing Vivian, now a young woman, still acting like a little girl, the other women around her covered their mouths and laughed.

"Alright, alright, it's understandable that my husband keeps some things from us. We also have some little secrets we haven't told him, so please don't make things difficult for him." Lia, the eldest sister, stepped in to defuse the situation.

"Lia, you're so good to me." I gratefully pulled her into my arms, kissed her deeply, and said happily. If Vivian's words had put me in an awkward situation, then Lia's words had completely freed me from it. How could I not be grateful to her?

"Honey, your sisters are all watching. Let me get up." Lia blushed, nestled in my arms, and said shyly.

Seeing Lia's flushed face and shy expression, I couldn't resist kissing her cheek again, and like a child, I said playfully, "Sister Lia is so adorable, I don't want to let go." Then, I gestured to tighten my embrace around her slender waist, not letting her slip out of my arms.

"Honey, I want some too!" Lina, seemingly a woman who thrives on chaos, couldn't help but feel jealous seeing her older sister being "favored," and clung to my back, pleading.

"Oh, Lina, what do you need from your husband?" Sensing the heavy scent of jealousy in the air, I looked at her with amusement.

"I want to be like my older sister, you know, you're trying to trick me!" While women in love may have lower IQs, it doesn't mean they're stupid; Lina clearly understood the deeper meaning in my words.

"Oh, so our Lina wants a kiss too? Here, brother will grant you one!" I chuckled, my left hand gently encircling Liya's slender waist, while my right hand pulled Lina's body from behind, encircling her full waist and drawing her into my arms.

With a soft cry from Lina, a loud "pop" of a kiss echoed in the cozy little room. I chuckled smugly, while Lina, already shyly buried in my arms when I kissed her cheek, dared not look up at her sisters.

My smiling gaze swept over the women, and seeing the hopeful glint in their eyes as I looked at them, I chuckled wickedly, "My ladies, I'm never one to show favoritism. To be fair, come on, one kiss each!" With that, I released my arms from the waists of two women and pounced on Lilia, who was closest to me. Amidst her soft cry, the cozy little house echoed with another clear "smack." One after another, amidst the women's cries, the sounds of kisses filled the little house, making it even more enchanting.

****************************

Today was a rare opportunity to teach, and I, who seldom attend classes, entered Rhine's classroom with a specific purpose, causing a stir among the students. Some infatuated girls assumed I was in class specifically for one of the girls, while the boys glared at me with envy. Some with girlfriends quickly moved to sit next to them to avoid any potential trouble, while single girls were surrounded by boys, in a state of extreme self-defense. It seemed they all saw me as a "beauty killer." Rhine was

also quite surprised by my arrival. Seeing me silently sitting beside him, he quickly said, "Boss, you've got time to come here today? It's not like..." Rhine's gaze swept over the girls in the class, finally settling on the girl surrounded by the most boys. While this girl wasn't quite a stunning beauty like one of the top ten beauties on campus, she was still a rare find. No wonder Rhine's eyes fell on her.

Unfortunately, before Rhine could finish speaking, he was hit on the head, and I heard my disgruntled voice in his ear: "Second brother, I called you here because it's urgent, not to pick up girls!"

"Big brother, how am I supposed to know what you're here for if you don't tell me? Look at how wary they are, who would think you came to our class for something!" Rhine muttered under his breath, rubbing the sore spot on his head.

"Sigh, looks like I shouldn't go out at this time!" I glanced at a spot, and the boys there glared at me angrily. It seemed like I was destined to become the school's public enemy. No wonder, I've won over all ten of the school's beauties; it's no wonder these perverts hate me.

"You're one to talk. If the ten beauties hadn't fallen into your arms, would I, with my handsome looks, not be able to find a single pretty girl?" Rhine complained from the side.

"Second brother, is this my fault? My popularity with them and your continued single status only prove one thing!" I hesitated for a moment, deliberately waiting for Rhine to fall into my trap.

Sure enough, Rhine immediately fell for it when he heard my explanation, and hurriedly asked, "What problem?"

I was secretly delighted and put on a smug expression, replying, "Well, it's actually a matter of your own charm and the depth of your feelings for that beautiful woman!"

"Tch, isn't that the same as saying nothing at all?" Rhine looked at me with disdain and said dismissively.

"How can you say that!" I said anxiously, "There's a big difference between saying it and not saying it. By bringing these questions up, aren't I pointing out the direction for your future pursuit of beauties? You should be thanking me!"

“I see,” Rhine said, resting his chin on his hand, pondering the truth behind my words.

Seeing his thoughtful expression, I chuckled inwardly and quickly changed the subject, “Second brother, we can discuss these things later. I came to see you today because I have something important to discuss with you and Hoss. Let’s find a quiet place to talk after class!”

Rhine stared at my face suspiciously, and seeing my serious expression, he half-jokingly said, “I thought the boss came to catch up with me, but it turns out he really has something to discuss!”

“Boss, aren’t you going to stay a little longer?” Rhine said helplessly as I disappeared through the door, “Honestly, all you know is how to hang out with those beauties, you don’t care about the lives of us brothers at all!”

The lecherous guys who had been watching me all along finally breathed a sigh of relief as I disappeared through the door. Finally free from this guy’s clutches, they all thought at the same time.

************************

Inside the academy’s back garden.

A riot of colors and patterns vie for attention, while diligent cocoa bees (insects similar to honeybees) busily gather nectar from the blossoms, and beautiful butterflies flutter above them. Lush green trees dot the garden's perimeter, adding a touch of green to the vibrant flowers. A green corridor winds its way through the blossoms, its end unknown. Amidst

this sea of flowers, I stood with my hands behind my back, facing away from the garden entrance, gazing into the distance, my mind replaying the words spoken to me by my grandfathers, Harvard and Harper.

"Hey, eldest brother, I'm here! Where are you? Come out and see me!" Before I even entered the garden, Hoss's booming voice snapped me out of my reverie.

"Third brother, you're here. I'm in the back garden. Come in!" I said calmly.

"Oh, I see. I'm coming in then." As he spoke, Hoss's tall figure had already stepped into the garden gate. Just then, a faint figure flashed past, actually bypassing Hoss's tall figure and arriving in front of me first.

"Second brother, how could you do this? I clearly stepped into the garden gate first, yet you arrived before me!" Hoss felt a slight familiarity with the figure and couldn't help but complain.

"Third brother, that's not right of you. Who told you to be slower than a tortoise? You can't blame anyone else!" Rhine stood beside me, smiling smugly. "

Second brother, there has to be a first-come, first-served rule. I clearly arrived first." Hoss's brain was never as good as Rhine's, and he always ended up losing when he spoke. The reason he came up with now was also unconvincing.

Seeing that Hoss was about to get into trouble over such a trivial matter, I quickly stopped him, saying, "Second brother, third brother, you haven't changed at all in a month or so!"

Hoss was overjoyed to see me step in to save him, and he suddenly knelt down in front of me with a "thump," rolled up my trouser leg, and cried out with tears and snot streaming down his face, "Boss, you're the best to me! I've missed you so much in a month! Boss, Sister-in-law Sira said she was going to introduce me to a beautiful woman, but there's not even a trace of her. Shouldn't you call her—"

"Thump!" Before Hoss could finish his "bitterness," a heavy blow from my hammer made him see stars and lose all sense of direction. I said angrily from the side, "Third brother, what time is it now? You still remember this ridiculous thing? I didn't call you here for this. Look at the state you've become! You're all like kittens in heat. Have you completed the tasks assigned to you by the gods and demons?"

"Boss, human wisdom is as vast as the ocean. We probably won't be able to learn it all in our lifetime," Rhine said, scratching his head with shame.

"Hmm, that's indeed the truth. Alright, you can't complete this task. Now I have something important to tell you, something that concerns the life and death of the Three Realms!" I sighed softly and said slowly.

"Ah?! Something that concerns the life and death of the Three Realms?" Hearing such shocking news, the two couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"Yes! When you descended to the mortal realm, didn't the elders of the gods and demons tell you that the three realms would face a great calamity in the next few years? Now I can say with certainty that the calamity will descend within three years. The emergence of the ancient Netherworld race foreshadows the beginning of turmoil in the three realms!" I said worriedly, thinking of the unknown ancient Netherworld race.

"What? The ancient Netherworld race has appeared? How come we've never heard of it!" Rhine asked in surprise.

"That happened ten thousand years ago. It's normal that you don't know. I'm afraid even the elders of the gods and demons don't know much about it, because all the records about the ancient Netherworld race have been destroyed. Only a few scattered records remain in the human realm. I called you here because I was worried that the gods and demons might not know about this, so I asked you to inform them!" I said, concerned for my relatives in the gods and demons.

"It seems that turmoil is about to come. No, I have to send a message back immediately!" After listening to this, Rhine pondered for a moment and said anxiously to me.

Although Hoss appears physically strong but simple-minded, beneath his burly exterior lies a shrewd and meticulous mind. Otherwise, why would the demons have entrusted him with such a daunting task? Upon hearing my words, he immediately realized the gravity of the situation, his joking expression vanishing as he solemnly declared, "Boss, I'm afraid I can't stay with you now. Let's reminisce later. As you said, the situation is serious; I must send a message back!"

"It's alright, you two are busy. I know you can't leave for a while. Have a good talk with the Upper Realm. I'll be going now." Gently dispelling the soundproof barrier, I sighed inwardly at the two serious-looking men and left the back garden.

Perhaps after they relay this to the Upper Realm, the summons will draw near, and my brothers and I may not see each other for a long time, and my two wives may leave me. But if I don't relay this to them, who can guarantee their lives and safety during the chaos of the Three Realms? Moreover, I can't stay by their side all the time. Only by letting them know the inside story can I ensure their safety. Perhaps this is the only thing I can do!

Chapter 178 of the Storm of Destiny (Part 2)

These past few days have seemed quite peaceful. Rhine and Hoss seem to have disappeared without a trace. I only learned about their recent situation from Lilia and Vivian. It turns out that after I told them the details that day, they immediately passed the news up. Realizing the seriousness of the situation, the gods and demons also sent people to inquire around the two realms, investigating the matter of the ancient Netherworld race from ten thousand years ago. Although the investigation was very difficult, they still learned some scattered information from the legends passed down in the two realms. Then, combined with the calculations of the prophetic elders of the two races, it actually matched what I said very well. Now, the people of the gods and demons are actively mobilizing to prevent the invasion of the ancient Netherworld race. Therefore, Rhine and Hoss have prepared to return to their realm. No wonder the two women have been making insatiable demands on me recently, almost making me die in bed. Moreover, the sorrowful looks in the two girls' eyes these past few days have made me feel extremely ashamed. Did I think my brotherly love was deeper than romantic love, keeping it from them?

Although the two girls acted extremely sorrowful in front of me, they behaved as usual in front of their sisters. They didn't want their sadness about parting to affect them, so they laughed and joked as usual, trying not to let the sisters notice anything amiss.

After four or five days of this, the two girls, who had been taken away by Rhine, returned with noticeably dejected expressions and a lingering trace of longing in their eyes, making me realize the sorrow of their impending departure. I quickly set up a soundproof barrier, then hugged the two girls tightly and said softly, "My two darlings, our separation is only temporary. Don't be sad; I'll be back to see you soon!"

"Honey, the thought of not seeing you for so long makes me so sad. So long, sob sob sob," Vivian sobbed softly, leaning on my left shoulder, her tears quickly soaking my clothes.

"Baby, don't be sad, crying will ruin your health! Don't worry, I'll take care of everything in the human world as quickly as possible and find you in the upper realm. You should know that your husband has the ability to travel through the three realms!" To comfort their sorrow at parting, I said with a touch of pride.

"Show-off!" Vivian burst into laughter, her charming appearance making my eyes widen.

"Lilia, my darling, is there anything you want to say to me?" After making Vivian laugh, I turned my gaze to Lilia.

Lilia, receiving my loving gaze, traced circles on my chest with her slender hands and said sweetly, "Honey, I don't have much to say. I just hope that after we're gone, you'll often think of us, remember the laughter we shared, the playful times we had, and all the little moments we shared. I ask for nothing more."

"My darling, you're such a sweetheart!" I kissed her forehead and said happily.

"Honey, me too!" Vivian, nestled on the other side, couldn't help but ask after seeing me kiss Lilia.

"Okay, whatever you ask for, I'll grant it." Seeing the two women's adorable expressions, I said happily. I was also happy to grant Vivian's request.

"How wonderful it would be if we could see each other more often in the future!" Vivian blurted out unintentionally, revealing her true feelings. After saying this, she seemed afraid I would scold her, so she quickly covered her mouth and buried her face in my chest.

"Oh, that is indeed troublesome." I stroked my chin thoughtfully, when suddenly a thought flashed through my mind. I quickly grabbed Lilia's arm and asked, "Do you still have the love ring I gave you before?"

"Is it this ring?" Lilia held out her slender hand, asking doubtfully. On the ring finger of her left hand was a simple, antique-looking ring, shimmering with a soft light.

"Yes, it's this ring. It seems that Aya is a thoughtful person!" Seeing Lilia's thoughtfulness, I couldn't help but exclaim with delight.

"Honey, I've kept everything you've given me. Look!" As she spoke, Lilia took out the things I had given her from her dimensional space and placed them in front of me one by one: a magic crystal necklace, a dragon-shaped bracelet, the Tears of the Holy Angel, and even the long hair I had once lost was kept in a brocade pouch.

"Oh, Lilia, you even remember this! This is so exciting!" I kissed her several times and exclaimed happily. Then I turned my gaze to Vivian and asked, "Vivian, my wife, what about you?"

"Uh, honey, I found it too troublesome, so I put it in my dimensional space." Vivian knew things were getting serious when I praised Lilia, and after my gaze fell on her, she became even more uneasy, looking at her toes as she spoke, avoiding my gaze.

"Huh!?" The dramatic, uneven voice startled her, making her panic. Thinking things had gone awry, she cried out, "Honey, don't be angry with me! I'll go find it right now! Hmm, where is it? Ah, it's not here, I'll look again. Oh, it's not here either, where is it?" Vivian looked at me pitifully, her face contorted with grief. Seeing my expressionless face, Vivian felt her unease intensify. She buried herself in her dimensional space again, muttering to herself, "I'll look again. I clearly remember it being here, how could it not be here? How could this be? Ah, I found it!" Her previous mournful face instantly transformed into one of overwhelming joy. But when she pulled out the love ring, her expression became strange again, devoid of her previous happiness.

"Oh, did you find it?" Sensing her slight disappointment, I asked calmly, "Let me see it!"

"Honey, let me just say this beforehand, don't be angry later, okay? I...I got this ring dirty." Her voice trailed off, her hands unconsciously twisting the hem of her clothes.

"What?! You let the love ring get dirty?!" I exclaimed in surprise.

"Honey, I didn't mean to, please forgive me! From now on, whatever you give me, I'll cherish it!" Vivian seemed startled by my loud voice, answering anxiously with a sob in her voice, tears streaming down her face.

Seeing her distress, a pang of pity rose in my heart, and I said softly, "Let me see the ring you have first!"

"Okay!" Vivian nodded gently, presenting the ring with both hands.

When I saw the dark, gooey thing lying quietly in my palm, I was startled and exclaimed, "This...this is the love ring I gave you?"

"Yes," Vivian hummed softly, acknowledging it was the ring, but her shifty gaze betrayed her unease.

"How did it become like this? This thing is supposed to be dustproof!" I lit a blue flame in my hand, placing the love ring inside to heat it. Once the temperature was high enough, a small jet of water sprayed onto the ring, and with a hiss, puffs of steam rose into the air, but the substance covering the ring remained completely unchanged.

"Hmm, this ring's surface is covered in some kind of substance that even fire and water can't remove it!" I thought to myself, secretly alarmed. Then I remembered that the ring was with Vivian; she must know what was going on with it. So I rolled my eyes and asked her softly, "Vivian, do you know what happened?"

Vivian looked at my gentle, handsome face, her heart filled with mixed joy and worry. She stammered, "Honey, this ring is like this because of that 'dirty stuff' that got on it when we were doing 'that' before!" As soon as she finished speaking, two red clouds immediately rose on her pretty face. Even Lilia, who was listening nearby, blushed, and lightly spat out a curse. One of her delicate hands quietly reached towards my lower back and pinched the soft flesh there.

"Ouch!" My loud cry startled both women, and Lilia quickly withdrew her hand from my waist. Although Lilia thought I hadn't noticed her little action, who saw the smug glint in my eyes?

"What's wrong, honey!" Vivian, seeing my cry, asked worriedly, thinking something had happened.

"Oh, I remember how to remove the marks from this ring." Suddenly, I leaned close to her ear and kissed her earlobe, teasingly saying, "Vivian, my wife, removing these marks of our love, won't it hurt?"

"What?! How disgusting!" Recalling that day, Vivian's blush, which had just subsided, surged again, and she retorted coquettishly.

"Since you say so," I deliberately drawled, then pulled my head back, saying with a smile, "then I'll have to remove these things!"

"You're such a jerk!" The two women couldn't help but scold me for openly mentioning these things.

"Oh, does Aya want to be like Vivian before?" Looking at Lilia's exquisite figure, I teased lewdly.

"Who wants to be like her? She's been up to no good all day. Let's restore Vivian's ring first!" Lilia rolled her eyes at me, retorting coquettishly.

"How dare a husband disobey his wife's orders!" I even gave the two women a military salute, which made them laugh.

Under the watchful eyes of the two women, a circular five-pointed star array suddenly appeared in the palm of my left hand. A cloud of white mist emerged from the array, enveloping the ring at its center. Then, a cylindrical beam of white light descended from the sky above my palm, striking the ring formed by the white mist. Under the beam of light, the white mist slowly dissipated, faintly revealing a corner of the ring. The black substance gradually melted away, and when the white light faded, the ring returned to its ancient appearance, and the miniature five-pointed star array in my palm quietly disappeared.

"Honey, you're so amazing! You fixed the ring in no time!" Seeing the ring restored to normal, Vivian couldn't help but throw herself into my chest, pulling my head and showering me with kisses.

"Stop, stop, baby, I can't take it anymore!" After her fierce "attack," my face was covered in her lipstick marks, making me smile wryly.

"Honey, I'm just happy!" Vivian snatched the love ring from my hand and solemnly put it on her left ring finger, pouting playfully.

"You, really..." Faced with her adorable appearance, I couldn't even muster the strength to scold her; she truly was my nemesis.

"Honey, what's the purpose of you asking us to bring out these love rings?" Despite the teasing, Lilia suddenly remembered my original intention in asking them to bring out the love rings.

"After you wear the love rings, it means we can communicate anytime, anywhere, truly achieving a connection of hearts!" Without seeing my lips move, my answer echoed in both women's minds simultaneously.

Seeing the two women's mouths widen in surprise, I chuckled to myself, "My two wives, how about it? Amazing, right? This is my own invention!"

After a moment of stunned silence, Vivian was the first to recover. She immediately wrapped her arms around my waist, nestled in my embrace, and said sweetly, "Honey, you're so amazing! You even created something this incredible. I'm sticking with you for life."

"Hmm, just for life?" I scoffed, expressing my dissatisfaction.

"No, for life, for the next life, and for the life after that, no matter what storms we face, I'm sticking with you." Vivian quickly corrected me.

Just as we were joking around, Lilia suddenly spoke up, "Anmei, honey, my second brother and Brother Hoss are calling us over!"

"Oh, I didn't expect this moment to come so soon!" I said with a cold smile. However, I quickly regained my composure and said, "Don't worry, we can still keep in touch every day after we part ways. The Heart-Connecting Ring not only has the function of chatting and transmitting images, but also some unknown functions waiting for you to discover. Activate it when you encounter danger, and it will ensure that no danger can threaten you. Alright, it's only a matter of time before we part ways. I'll teleport you there with you." After sensing their presence, a white light flashed, and I and the two women disappeared from the room.

********************************************

"Why haven't Fourth Sister and the others arrived yet? It shouldn't take them this long to talk to the eldest sister. The spatial gate is about to open. If they don't appear soon, we might really not be able to go back!" Hoss paced anxiously to the side.

Seeing Hoss pacing back and forth in front of him, Rhine felt a surge of impatience and waved his hand, saying, "Hey, Third Brother, can you stop walking for a second? You're making my eyes water, and I'm getting annoyed!"

"I'm just worried about Fourth Sister and the others. Given their relationship with the eldest brother, separation might be a real possibility!" Hoss said, still looking worried.

"What good is your worrying? Actually, I think they're safer with the eldest brother. With his skills, how many people in the Three Realms can match him?" Rhine seemed relieved, gesturing.

"Second Brother, Third Brother, do you think I'm such a selfish person? If those two stay with me, I'm afraid I'll face the pursuit of both gods and demons. Let's just forget about it!" A flash of white light appeared, and I stood before them, arm in arm with the two women.

"Eldest Brother, I mean..." Rhine faced me, hesitating to speak.

I waved my hand to interrupt him, saying firmly, "Second brother, I know you mean well, but everything has a cause and effect. How can there be an effect without a cause? It's true that Lilia and the others are safe with me, but when facing the ancient Netherworld race, their constant reliance on me will have a negative impact on both of us. War might be the most effective way for someone to mature quickly. Believe me, my feelings for them are no less than yours, and I won't let my women face danger alone!"

"Boss, I didn't expect you to be so sentimental!" Hearing my words, Hoss was so moved that he almost pounced on me again. Luckily, I dodged quickly, or he would have choked me.

"Hoss, you're still the same as always. Be careful in the Demon Realm. The struggle between princes is not only something humans cannot escape, but even gods and demons cannot escape the desire for power. I hope you will be careful." I said seriously. While I was talking to Hoss, I was also telling Rein. With his clever mind, it wouldn't be difficult for him to figure out a certain answer.

"Boss, thank you for your concern!" Rhine said gratefully. He seems quite clever; he immediately understood the hidden meaning in my words, so my efforts weren't in vain.

"Alright, alright, no need for thanks. The portal is open, you two should hurry and go. Lilia, my wife; Vivian, my wife, remember to contact me often and study your love rings!" Suppressing my reluctance, I pushed them through the portal. Only after the portal disappeared did I turn away to wipe the tears from my eyes. "

Husband, take care!" The two women's reluctant voices echoed in my mind, their deep affection almost bringing tears to my eyes again.

"You two take care too!" I silently wished them welled up with tears, then a flash of white light, and my figure vanished.

Chapters 179-181 of the "Storm of the Wind and Clouds" series. Chapter 179

: Emergency Situation

. "Where did they go? Where are Sister Lilia and Sister Vivian?" As soon as we entered the house, the lively Lina called out.

"Uh, Lina, my dear, your Sister Lilia and Sister Vivian have some urgent business at home and won't be back for a while!" Faced with Lina's question, I could only offer this answer.

"Liar, honey! I've never heard them mention their families before! You're definitely lying!" Lina was clearly dissatisfied with my answer and pouted.

Faced with her questioning, I really wanted to tell her the truth, but to avoid hurting the other women, I pretended to be very sincere. I put my arm around her slender waist and said firmly, "Baby, how could your husband lie to you? Your two sisters really have a family emergency. Even though they didn't talk about their families in front of you, it doesn't mean they don't have families! You have family too, and when something happens at home, don't you also look flustered?"

Hearing my words, Lina was silent for a while, then asked, "When will they come back?"

"I don't know, maybe they'll appear when it's time!" I hugged Lina's slender waist tightly, glanced at the sky, and said calmly with a hint of melancholy.

"I'm not talking to you anymore. You were so happy just now, but now there's a strange feeling about you. It's a bad feeling. I'm going out to play with my sisters. Bye-bye!" Lina sniffed the air, wriggled in my arms, suddenly pushed away from my chest, and ran off laughing.

A group of women, laughing and joking, walked out of the house, arms around each other, playfully pushing and shoving as they disappeared into the distance, leaving me alone in the open space of the courtyard, gazing wistfully at the sky. Perhaps Lilia and Vivian hadn't even noticed their departure. And indeed, no matter how far a home may be, they would always return. The warmth of their lovers, the care of their sisters—these were enough to make them nostalgic. But who knew that the two women's home wasn't in this realm? One was in the realm of gods, the other in the realm of demons; when they would meet again was unknown. Perhaps they buried this sorrow of parting deep in their hearts, swallowing this bitter fruit together to put my mind at ease. Perhaps…

"Sigh," I sighed softly, silently looking ahead.

A soft, light footstep came from behind me. As if knowing who it was, I asked softly, "Is that Liya? Why aren't you out playing with your other sisters?"

"Honey, you don't need to lie anymore. I heard everything you said to Lina. Even though you tried so hard to hide it, the faint sadness in your voice betrayed your true feelings." A full figure embraced me from behind. Liya's face rested against my back, and she said wistfully, "Honey, share your troubles with us. Maybe we can help you. Like with your two sisters leaving, you didn't say a word. We didn't know. Are you allowed to care about them, but we can't? We're sisters too!" As she spoke, Liya's voice choked with emotion, and I felt a dampness on my back.

"I'm sorry, baby. It's my fault for hurting you." I turned around, lifted her chin, kissed away her tears, and said gently.

"Honey, remember to discuss things with others more often in the future. I know you're having trouble saying anything about Lilia and Vivian leaving. Don't worry, I won't force you. Tell them when you're ready!" Lilia said sensibly.

"Thank you, my darling Lilia. Having such a gentle and virtuous wife like you is the greatest happiness of my life!" I said excitedly, sensing Lilia's sincerity.

"You're getting cheesy again, honey. You're becoming more and more glib. It's giving me goosebumps!" Lilia said, then nestled in my arms and giggled. Her firm breasts, seemingly about to burst out of her clothes, made my mouth water, and my heart fluttered with desire.

"If I'm not a little cheesy with my wife, how can you guys like me?" I said playfully, reaching my hands under her armpits.

"Hehe, don't do that, I'm ticklish, stop it!" Lia giggled under my teasing.

************************

Time slipped away quietly, and a week passed in the blink of an eye. Everything changed subtly during this week; even the same person experienced shifts in mindset each day. Nothing major seemed to have happened in these seven days; no new news came from the mainland. It had been a long time since I'd felt such rare peace on the mainland, but beneath this tranquility lurked a sense of danger. A

new day began. Strolling along the campus paths, I admired the scenery and unknowingly wandered into the principal's office. Realizing what had happened, I was about to hurry away when I turned around and almost bumped into Harvard.

"Uh, grandson-in-law, what's wrong with you today? Can't you watch where you're going?!" Harvard took a step back and shouted.

"Grandpa, I'm sorry, I disturbed you, I'm so sorry!" I apologized repeatedly. A week has passed, and the departure of the two women seems to have had no effect on my sorrow. I'm often absent-minded and listless. If I hadn't run into Harvard today, things might have gotten much worse.

I shook my head slightly, took a deep breath of fresh air to clear my head, apologized to Harvard, and turned to head home. But before I'd taken more than a few steps, Harvard called out to me from behind.

"Hey, grandson-in-law, wait a minute, don't rush off. Your Uncle Harvard and I have something to discuss with you!"

"Oh, Grandpa Harvard, you have something to discuss with me again? It's not about that last time, is it? I already promised you!" I was still resentful about how they had practically forced me that day, so I was a little annoyed that he wanted to see me.

"No, no, no, you misunderstand. We have something urgent that we need you to do!" Harvard, knowing he was in the wrong, quickly waved his hand to clarify.

"What is it?" I asked, puzzled. "There are so many talented people at school, why did they specifically come to me?"

"Grandson-in-law, this matter absolutely requires your attention. Don't you want to go see your 'someone'?" Harvard winked at me, teasingly.

"What 'someone'? Who are you talking about?" Seeing Harvard's seductive expression, I was a little annoyed.

"Grandson-in-law, if you want to know the details, come with me to the office!" Harvard grinned at me, chuckling as he stepped into the office.

"You—" Although I was extremely reluctant to step into this office, I had no choice but to follow him in. As soon as I entered the office, I asked loudly, "Grandpa, now that I'm in with you, you should tell me, right?" "

My dear grandson-in-law, you haven't agreed to that matter with us yet, how can we tell you!" Harvard clearly wanted me to take the bait, refusing to tell me the details.

Seeing that I was about to lose my temper, Harper quickly stopped me, saying, "Grandson-in-law, I've called you here to deliver a letter to the Duchy of Liwu. Just deliver it to Archmage Hark, the principal of Liwu Academy. I heard your wife, Davis, is still there. I don't think you'd refuse this task!"

Harper's amiable smile looked more like a sly grin to me. I couldn't help but curse him inwardly as a cunning old fox, but at the same time, I secretly admired him. This move to undermine my chances was truly brilliant. Helpless, I could only force a smile and say, "Grandpa, please forgive my words. As your grandson-in-law, it's my duty to do such a small thing!" Playing cat and mouse with these two cunning old men secretly pleased me.

Seeing that I had agreed, Haber and Harvard exchanged a smile. Haber then said, "My dear son-in-law, the journey is long and arduous. Be careful on your way!"

"Uh, wait, can't I just teleport there?" Haber's words implied that I was to trek there on foot.

"My good son-in-law, you are indeed exceptionally clever. Actually, we are forced to do this. Seeing that the situation on the continent is getting worse, your journey there on foot will allow you to gather information about the domestic situations of various countries. This will only benefit you in leading the human race in the future. What do you think? Isn't our idea good? Here, take a look at this map. From south to north, it passes through the Fire Lion Empire, the Fire Dance Duchy, the Hawk Empire, the Fierce Tiger Dynasty, and some smaller countries. This will be very helpful in understanding the future situation, which is why we arranged it this way!" Harvard explained in detail.

What a pair of cunning old devils, I couldn't help but curse inwardly. However, hearing Harvard's words left me speechless, but I still couldn't help asking, "Am I going alone?"

"You can arrange the number yourself, but don't bring too many. My two granddaughters might be tempted to come along, so you should take them with you!" Haber knew that the two sisters, Leah and her sister, hadn't forgotten that hatred, so he specifically asked me to take them along so they could settle this score.

"Grandpa, I would have taken them even if you hadn't said so. After all, they'll have to face this hatred sooner or later!" I was quite touched by Haber Harvard's concern for my two granddaughters and couldn't help but reply.

"Good, good, good, you truly are our good grandson-in-law!" Haber exclaimed several times, patting my shoulder excitedly.

In my excitement, my expression calmed down, and I said in a flat tone, "Grandpas, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave." Unbeknownst to me, I had fallen into their trap, and now the only way to escape was to run away. The two old rascals, Harper and Harvard, couldn't help but laugh at my disheveled escape.

****************************************

After returning home, my mind had calmed down, but the matter in my heart remained unresolved, like a fishbone stuck in my throat, making it difficult to swallow. If I spoke of it, I feared my other wives would follow, even though I would be happy to, I had to consider their safety; if I didn't speak of it, I feared they would find out I had already left, and I would surely be blamed when I returned. This left me in a dilemma, my left foot stepping into the yard neither advancing nor retreating.

After preparing her lessons, Liya approached the house and saw me standing at the door with a strange expression, hesitantly holding my left foot. She couldn't help but ask, "Honey, what's wrong? You look so strange, you're not even coming in!"

Seeing Liya's gentle gaze, my initial hesitation subsided, and I immediately had an answer. I excitedly told her, "Liya, my wife, when they come back, call them to the living room. I have something to tell you!"

"Oh, what is it? So mysterious, you want to gather everyone together to talk?!" Liya playfully stuck out her tongue and asked with a light laugh.

"Don't worry about it now, you'll find out soon enough!" I tapped her forehead and smiled.

"Alright! Since you say so, honey, I won't ask any more questions. I'll gather them all later and await your instructions!" Liya made a face at me and ran into the yard, leaving a lingering fragrance. I shook my head and followed her in with a smile.

After about half a day, looking at the laughing and chatting women before me, I couldn't help but smile knowingly. The women stopped laughing when they saw me appear, and Lia, the eldest, showed her witty side. She marched in front of me, gave a slight salute, and said solemnly, "Reporting, sir, my subordinates are assembled." Before she finished speaking, she burst out laughing, covering her mouth, instantly disrupting the serious atmosphere. The other women watching also covered their mouths and laughed.

Seemingly to continue the comedic atmosphere, I straightened my posture, put on a serious face, and replied, "Understood!" I returned the salute, which caused the women to erupt in laughter. They laughed so hard they almost fell to the ground clutching their stomachs.

"Old man, you're so funny! Haha!" Lina, who loved laughter, couldn't help but burst into laughter, clutching her stomach.

"Laugh, all of you. Once you've laughed enough, you can cry as you please." I first smiled lightly at their teasing, then became serious.

"Ah, what's wrong, honey? Are you hiding something from us?" The clever Silas immediately understood the implication in my words, her smile faltering as she asked anxiously. Hearing Lina's words, the other wives also stopped laughing, looking at me with questioning eyes.

Feeling embarrassed by their stares, I quickly denied it, "No, no, no, why would I hide anything from you? It's just that Grandpa and Grandpa just spoke to me about something, and I need to discuss some matters with you!"

"Oh, honey, just tell us what it is, we'll definitely support you!" As the eldest sister, Lia adopted her proper demeanor, speaking seriously.

"Lia, Suya, this matter concerns you both, you must listen carefully!" I called the two women by their names, straightening my handsome face and speaking solemnly.

"Ah, it concerns us?" Although the two women were a little surprised, they still listened intently to my explanation.

"This time, my two grandfathers instructed me to deliver a letter to Archmage Hark at the Liwu Academy in the far north. The journey is long, passing through the Fire Lion Empire, the Fire Dance Duchy, the Hawk Empire, and the Fierce Tiger Dynasty." When I mentioned the "Fierce Tiger Dynasty," I glanced at the two women and noticed their eyes flickering with hatred. I quickly continued, "and other small countries as well. The journey will be fraught with difficulties and unknown dangers, so we won't be able to see each other for a long time. As for Liya and Suya, I need to take them to the Fierce Tiger Dynasty to settle some personal matters, so you must all listen to Liya, understand?" I surveyed the women with my gaze and said firmly.

"Husband, we haven't had much time together yet, and you're leaving again! I can't bear to part with you! Take me with you!" Lina cried and pleaded when she heard that we would be separated again for a while.

Hearing Lina's words, I knew things would turn out this way again, so I quickly went to comfort her, saying, "Lina, it's not that your husband doesn't want to take you, it's just that the journey is long and arduous, and it's not good for a girl like you to go alone!"

"What's wrong with it! You're taking Liya and Suya with you!" Lina pouted, jealously.

"You're different from them. They have some things to take care of, but you're not doing anything. You know we're not going on a sightseeing trip!" I couldn't help but raise my voice, scolding her.

"Honey, I don't want to go, don't be so mean to me!" Lina said, her big, watery eyes filled with grievance.

"That's more like it. Come on, smile!" I gently wiped away her tears and said softly.

Perhaps knowing about tomorrow's parting, the women were especially passionate tonight, clinging to me passionately all night. If it weren't for my special constitution, I probably wouldn't be able to get out of bed tomorrow.

The next day, carrying the letter, accompanied by two women, and accompanied by a dozen or so Purple Gold Warriors obtained from Uncle Mike, we embarked on our journey. Uncle Mike had originally intended to send someone to secretly protect me, but I refused, leaving him with no choice but to give up .

Chapter 180: Encounter with Mountain Bandits

. After leaving the Qi Wan Magic and Martial Arts Academy, although I knew I was carrying a letter of immense importance to the entire human race, I was naturally carefree knowing no one would intercept it along the way. After all, the journey was long, so we traveled leisurely, enjoying the scenery. While the two women and I relaxed our vigilance, the dozen or so Purple Gold Warriors accompanying us remained vigilant, constantly protecting us from attacks. Although they knew our magical martial arts skills were superb, they hadn't witnessed them firsthand and therefore didn't take it seriously. As their young master, they also had to faithfully protect our safety.

This practice had continued for four or five days until an unexpected event occurred, which finally made the dozen or so Purple Gold Warriors truly accept me.

Today, the sun shone brightly, its rays not scorching at all. In the distance, mountains stretched endlessly, with waterfalls of all sizes outlining the beauty of the landscape; nearby, lush green forests covered the land, adding vibrant green to the earth and mountains. Birds chirped softly in the woods, insects hummed and scurried in the grass, and flowers vied for attention among the bushes. A white jade ribbon stretched across the peaks, winding and undulating—this was the path we were to take.

The road was wide, the dust absorbed by the surrounding grass, making it both flat and clean. We walked along the road, chatting and laughing. Liya and Suya nestled in my arms, talking affectionately. Soon we reached a crossroads. According to the map, we only needed to go straight, so no one said anything, and we continued chatting and laughing as we walked forward.

Suddenly, a rustling sound came from the woods ahead. A faint murderous aura filled the air and caught my attention, but I pretended not to notice and continued walking forward with the two women in my arms. The dozen or so soldiers seemed to have also sensed the danger, and their hands were more or less on their waists and chests, just waiting for the enemy to make a move so they could deal with it as well.

The enemy ahead seemed impatient. Before we even entered their encirclement, they emerged from the woods, the bushes, and even underground. One by one, burly, fierce-looking men wielding large machetes blocked our path. There were about a hundred of them, and seemingly to prevent us from deserting, they had completely surrounded us.

"What are you doing? I am the Grand Marshal of the Fire Lion Empire! What are you trying to do by blocking my way?" I feigned fear, trembling as I spoke. The two women in my arms were initially startled by my words, but then they realized I was toying with them. Knowing my true intentions, they suppressed their laughter and continued watching my performance, though their trembling bodies in my arms betrayed their true feelings.

"Oh, you call yourself the Grand Marshal of the Empire? I'm the Emperor of the Empire! Who do you think you are? You look so cowardly and timid, trying to impersonate the Grand Marshal of the Empire? You're like a rat falling into a cesspool—you're asking for death!" The burly leader mocked sarcastically. He then burst into laughter, and his henchmen around him brandished their weapons and joined in the laughter.

"Sir, I really am the Grand Marshal of the Fire Lion Empire. I have some urgent business to attend to in the capital. Please be lenient with me!" I continued to feign weakness and incompetence, trying to lull the bandits into a false sense of security.

"Oh, kid, you're really putting on a brave face! I won't kill you today. Just leave your money and crystal cards, and you can escape." The leader laughed arrogantly.

"Sir, I don't have much money on me. How about you put it on my tab?" I pleaded in a low voice.

"Kid, what do you take me for, 'Hungry Wolf' Gedo? A benevolent roadside handout? Today you're not going to..." As he spoke, Gedo's gaze swept over me. Upon seeing the two beauties in my arms, a lustful glint appeared in his triangular eyes. He lewdly grinned, "Kid, you're in luck today. As long as you hand over these two beauties, I won't take your money." His lewd gaze lingered on the two women's high breasts, a disgusting liquid seeping from the corner of his mouth. The bandits nearby seemed to share his lewdness, their eyes fixed on the women's breasts, drooling, which only made the two women look on with disgust.

Hearing Gedo's repulsive words, I felt a surge of anger, and my face hardened with frost. These two women were taboo subjects to me; how could I allow others to covet them? I would never allow anyone to treat them as commodities to be bought and sold. I coldly commanded, "Kill! Leave that 'hungry wolf' a dog's life!" My chilling tone sent a shiver down the spine of Gedo, who stood opposite me, feeling as if he were a lamb to the slaughter. At

my command, the dozen or so Purple Gold Warriors following behind me transformed into streaks of purple light, plunging into the bandits. With flashes of cold light, the bandits collapsed to the ground like cut straw, rolling around in agony. Each of them had a small gash in their throat, blood gushing out. To avoid frightening the two women, I quickly covered their eyes, but they said, "Husband, it's something we have to face sooner or later. Letting us see it sooner will help us get used to it. Don't worry, we'll be fine!" Since they said that, I had no choice but to release them.

The deaths of those hundred or so bandits weren't gruesome, but the slit throats and gushing blood made them suffer the agony of losing their lives. Seeing their terrified expressions—arms clutching their throats, hands stained with blood, choking them—and the bloodstains they left on the ground as they struggled, the two women finally couldn't bear it any longer.

Lia sighed softly and said, "Husband, don't let them suffer any longer. End their lives!" Hearing this, I nodded slightly, raised my left hand, and with a flick of my wrist, the bandits who had been rolling on the ground smiled happily, slowly closing their eyes. Then, before everyone's eyes, these bandits, who had died peacefully, dissolved into particles and vanished into the air. This move immediately subdued the group of unruly purple-gold warriors, making them clearly understand my true power. The two women looked at me with reverence, their love surging within them.

"So, 'Hungry Wolf' Geddo, am I still a fake Imperial Grand Marshal?" I asked calmly, a divine light flashing in my eyes as I looked directly into his.

But at that moment, Gedo couldn't hear what I was saying. He stared blankly as the hundred or so people he had brought disappeared into thin air, and his fear intensified. Suddenly, he roared, scratching his hair and repeatedly shouting, "Ah, the devil! Ah, the devil! The devil is here!" As he spoke, he looked terrified, clutching at the dust on the ground and backing away as if he had encountered something horrific. Moreover, a foul odor emanated from him; he was so frightened that he lost control of his bladder and bowels. The stench made the two women frown, cover their noses, and bury their faces in my arms.

I never expected my actions to terrify him. To test whether he was truly insane or feigning it, I was about to step forward to question him when I saw his face contorted with terror, his hands flailing wildly, screaming, "No, no, come any closer! You're a devil! You're a devil! Waaah! Waaah!" His back pressed against the ground, his legs scrambling, gliding a short distance before he used his hands as legs to run forward at breakneck speed, seemingly frightened by me.

Seeing the stunned Gedo, I knew I couldn't get any information from him, so I sighed helplessly and said, "Let's go. I just hope it's not too dangerous ahead." With that, I tightened my grip on the two women's waists and strode forward.

Meanwhile, Gedo, the "hungry wolf" who had been running away on all fours, returned to the mountain stronghold and hid in a corner of the hall, trembling and muttering, "The devil is here! The devil is here!" Upon hearing the news, the chief, second chief, and third chief of Demon Cloud Stronghold rushed into the hall to question Gedo.

The chieftain, Huacier, was a middle-aged man with a calm expression. He walked up to Gedo and asked kindly, "Gedo, what happened that frightened you like this? You can say what you have to say in front of the three of us."

Huacier's calm voice seemed unable to rouse him from his madness. He clung tightly to a large pillar against the wall, completely ignoring Huacier's question.

"Hey, Gedo, how can you ignore your elder brother like this? Be careful, or I, 'King Solomon,' will chop you in half with one stroke!" The second chieftain, a burly man with a full beard and muscles, known as "King Solomon" Lius, was furious that his subordinate Gedo was ignoring his leader.

"Second brother, look at what you've said! You've scared Gedo half to death! Come here, Gedo, come over here!" The third brother, Sphinx, nicknamed "Demon Fox," was a man of profound wisdom, but unfortunately, his wisdom wasn't used for good. Arson, murder, robbery, rape, and plunder—half of the infamy that made Demon Cloud Stronghold so renowned came from his intellect. The three of them coming together was truly a matter of necessity. The eldest brother, Hua Ci'er, was an honest and simple man. It was only because of his superior magical martial arts skills that the other two were truly convinced of his worth. However, he couldn't stand by and watch them commit rape and plunder, but out of brotherly affection, he was too embarrassed to speak out and could only turn a blind eye. Seeing that his eldest brother, who had previously wanted to intervene, was now letting them run wild, he established a stronghold on a mountain beside the road leading to the Fire Lion Empire, and began his life of plundering. This is how Demon Cloud Stronghold came to be.

The third brother was speaking so softly now, hoping to extract some information from Gedo—how his hundred or so men had disappeared in a short time, and how he himself had acted like a madman. Unfortunately, the crazed Gedo wasn't buying it. Seeing the Sphinx approaching with outstretched arms, he cowered in terror, crying out, "No, no, come any closer! The devil! The devil is coming! Go away, go away!" He grabbed a chair and threw it at the Sphinx, then, with lightning speed, knocked over several tables and chairs before running out of the hall.

"You're asking for death!" the Sphinx roared. He extended his right fist and struck the flying chair with all his might. A flash of red light appeared on his fist, and the chair instantly turned to dust. Seeing Gedo attack him in front of him and then flee, he grabbed a saucer from the table without a word and threw it at Gedo. A flash of white light appeared, and a scream came from Gedo's mouth. Gedo, who was running away at high speed, fell to the ground and could not get up again, because a tea saucer was still stuck in the back of his neck.

"Sphinx, you killed someone right in front of me!" Flowerthorn roared angrily. Although he had often heard of Sphinx killing without cause, he never expected him to kill Geddar in front of him today.

"Boss, it's just killing one person, nothing serious!" Sphinx said nonchalantly.

"Hmph!" Seeing Sphinx's indifferent attitude, Flowerthorn snorted coldly and turned away. Sphinx seemed to say nothing more, only exchanging a glance with "King Solomon" before quickly turning his head away. No one noticed the sinister glint in his eyes.

It was late at night, and Flowerthorn, still angry with the two men, didn't expect his second and third brothers to arrive together, carrying two jars of fine wine. They seemed to have come to apologize. In the past, whenever Sphinx did something wrong, he would bring two jars of wine and personally apologize, and Flowerthorn would have no choice but to let it go.

That evening, before Hua Ci'er could even speak, Sphinx lifted the lid of his wine bottle, releasing a rich, intoxicating aroma. The fragrant wine made Hua Ci'er smack his lips repeatedly, his eyes gleaming with longing. Seeing Hua Ci'er's eager expression, Sphinx smiled and poured him a cup, saying apologetically, "Brother, I'm truly sorry for what happened during the day. You know I couldn't control myself. I hope this cup will calm you down!"

Seeing Sphinx's apologetic gaze, Hua Ci'er drank the wine without a word, considering it a satisfactory answer. However, as he drank, he didn't realize that Sphinx and Liu Si exchanged a knowing glance, their eyes filled with smugness.

"Hua Ci'er, how does this wine taste? Isn't it quite good? I've put a little bit of Shen Hua San (a kind of drug that suppresses the circulation of internal energy) in this wine. How about it? Can't you feel it?" After Hua Ci'er drank the whole cup of wine, Sphinx said with a sinister smile.

"Hmm, this wine tastes quite good, strong and fragrant, leaving a lingering aroma and a smooth texture. It truly lives up to its reputation as the top-tier Meijiu of the Fire Lion Empire!" Hua Ci'er praised, but he quickly realized something was amiss and exclaimed in surprise, "Third brother, what do you mean? What have I done to offend you?"

"Don't play dumb anymore, General Hua Fenghua. I've thoroughly investigated your background. General Hua Fenghua, one of the four great generals of the Fire Lion Empire, known as the 'Dragon and Tiger Warrior,' you didn't expect us to discover you, did you? Actually, you only slightly slipped up recently. When I came to apologize last time, the way you held your cup while drinking was slightly different from the previous leader. Then, based on your usual behavior, we investigated further and, sure enough, we found that this imposter was problematic." Sphinx said smugly.

Hua Fenghua was shocked. It seemed his imitation wasn't successful enough; there were still flaws in the eyes of that old fox, the Demon Fox. He needed to find a chance to escape. He secretly circulated his inner energy, only to find that the demonic martial arts true energy within his body remained completely still. Knowing it was a problem with the ginseng dissipating, he refused to give up and frantically circulated his inner energy, attempting to find even a trace of demonic martial arts true energy. After all, without it, he wouldn't have a chance to escape. However, fate seemed to be on his side; in a secluded meridian, a trace of demonic martial arts true energy was still circulating. He carefully circulated this trace, then used it to activate the stagnant true energy. To his delight, the stagnant true energy finally showed a slight movement—it finally reacted! Hua Fenghua regained hope for his escape.

Chapter 181 Clever Rescue and Elimination of Thieves

Hua Fenghua quietly circulated her magical martial arts true energy, her face remaining impassive as she calmly said, "I didn't expect you to be so shrewd, discovering this great general so quickly. That's right, I've come on Queen Doris's orders to exterminate you bandits. You have repeatedly harmed the innocent, robbed passing caravans of their wealth, plundered undefended villages, and murdered unarmed civilians. Do you have any conscience? When your parents, brothers, and sisters faced the same tragedy, what were your thoughts?"

Hua Fenghua's sharp shouts relentlessly assaulted the hearts of the two men sitting opposite her, almost causing them to lose their composure and become completely disoriented. However, the "Demon Fox" Sphinx, true to her cunning nature, seemed to sense Hua Fenghua's stalling tactics and quickly spoke up, "General Hua, don't try to sway us with your sweet words! We are ruthless people; how could we be fooled by your flattery!" The "Demon Fox" was subtly warning Liu Si, who was standing nearby, not to be misled by Hua Fenghua's seductive words. Although Liu Si was impulsive, she wasn't stupid; upon hearing the "Demon Fox's" words, her mind cleared.

Hua Fenghua also lamented her bad luck; she was only one step away from success, but the "Demon Fox" was too clever, instantly ruining her spell. It seemed she could only rely on her silver tongue to buy time, hoping to recover three or four tenths of her strength. He sneered inwardly, "The name 'Demon Fox' is indeed extraordinary. You've regained your senses so quickly. But soon you won't need to stay awake anymore, because soon you'll be wiped out by the army!"

Hua Fenghua's cold laughter didn't seem to frighten "Demon Fox." Instead, he laughed loudly, "General Hua, if you have the strength to go out and see, you'll see a scene that will surprise you. As for your loyal subordinates, I've already sent someone to 'treat' them well." "

What? You...you actually...you actually..." Upon hearing this news, he, who was frantically channeling his internal energy, couldn't help but suffer a qi deviation and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Third brother, let's take advantage of this moment and eliminate him together." It turned out that Demon Fox had been worried that the Ginseng Dissolving Powder hadn't completely dissipated into his body, so he delayed for a while, hoping that Hua Fenghua's internal energy would be completely suppressed. At this moment, Hua Fenghua's sudden vomiting of blood provided them with a good opportunity, and they decided to eliminate him together. But what they didn't expect was that this delay also provided him with a chance to be saved. Although the vomiting of blood caused his internal energy to malfunction, it didn't fundamentally damage him.

"Demon Fox" Sphinx and "King Solomon" Lius leaped up from either side. A faint light shimmered on Sphinx's left hand, a dark aura enveloping his entire palm as he struck towards Hua Fenghua's right chest. Meanwhile, King Solomon's body surged with a pale yellow battle aura, which gradually condensed into a ball on his right fist, aiming for Hua Fenghua's left chest. Faced with such a perilous confrontation, Hua Fenghua dared not make the slightest mistake. He frantically channeled the two or three tenths of his remaining internal energy, his palms glowing a deep blue as he met the left palm and right fist.

"Ugh!" A mouthful of blood gushed out. How could Hua Fenghua's two or three tenths of his energy withstand the combined attack of the two at full power? Amidst the gushing blood, he was also thrown through the window frame by the force of their attacks and fell out. The two, having succeeded in their attack, knew he had suffered severe internal injuries, either dead or crippled, and couldn't help but feel a little smug. The clever "Demon Fox," though initially pleased with himself, suddenly sensed something was wrong. A brilliant idea flashed through his mind: "Use the enemy's strength to escape!" He quickly jumped out the window, straining his eyes to see the ground. He immediately understood everything and couldn't help but stamp his foot, lamenting, "I didn't expect his power wasn't completely suppressed! This was my mistake!"

Liu Si, who followed him out, strained his eyes to see the ground. There was nothing there except a pool of black blood. However, he also understood what had happened. His gaze fell on the "Demon Fox," and he asked, "Second Brother, should we continue the pursuit?"

"Of course we should! Besides figuring out Big Brother's situation, we also need to figure out the enemy's schemes against us. Are we just going to surrender like this?" The "Demon Fox," besides feeling a little regretful, was also angry. Escaping from his perfectly planned scheme was like a punch to the chest.

"Should we take some men with us?" Liu Si asked again.

"You're rambling on and on, not giving the enemy a chance to escape! Hurry up and chase after him!" "Demon Fox" pulled Liu Si and chased after Hua Fenghua in the direction he had fled.

Putting all that aside, we hadn't seen a single bandit appear by nightfall after defeating them during the day, so we relaxed our guard and found a good place to camp. As night fell, we gathered firewood, lit it, and ate the wild game we had just hunted by the light of the campfire.

"Honey, this rabbit tastes so good! It's so much better than the food at the academy!" Su Ya chewed on the rabbit meat, her mouth dripping with oil, and praised the wild game with great saliva.

"Alright, alright, Suya, my wife, eat as much as you like! But please don't talk to me while you're eating this rabbit meat!" I said sternly, wiping the sesame oil spraying from Suya's mouth with a towel.

Unfortunately, my expression seemed inappropriate at this moment, and I immediately broke down after Suya said something. I saw her stop chewing the rabbit meat, and after swallowing the piece of delicious meat in her mouth, she said coquettishly, "Honey, I was praising how delicious this rabbit meat is, wasn't I praising your skills in grilling? Why are you blaming me now?" After saying that, she raised her greasy little hands to lean on me, but I dodged her. "Honey, how can you be

like this? I'm heartbroken and I can't even find someone to lean on? You're so stingy! I'm ignoring you, I'm just going to eat my rabbit meat, I'll eat you to death, I'll eat you to death!" Suya couldn't help but angrily gnaw on the rabbit meat, treating me like a rabbit leg in her hand.

Seeing Suya's adorable appearance, I couldn't help but smile happily. But then I thought about how she would soon face the hateful Tiger Dynasty, and wondered if that same smile would still grace her face.

Liya, being the eldest among the women, naturally understood my feelings. Seeing my previously cheerful face turn sour, she couldn't help but comfort me, "Honey, don't worry, Suya will always be that adorable person in your eyes, and that won't change because of circumstances!"

I was very pleased with Liya's comfort. I took her delicate hand in mine and patted it gently a few times, smiling as I replied, "My wife Liya is still the best to me, and she hasn't let me down!"

"You, aren't you afraid people will find it cheesy and say such disgusting things at a time like this!" Although Liya said this, I could sense that she was quite pleased with my words, nestling in my arms like a little bird, like a little woman.

Savoring this precious moment of tenderness, I held her slender waist tightly, pressing her full, delicate body close to my chest, inhaling the fragrance of her hair. Our hearts seemed to grow even closer.

Unfortunately, good things don't last forever, and bad things often follow. Just as I was enjoying this rare moment of warmth, Liya beside me immediately ruined it. I heard her chewing on rabbit meat and casually ask, "Honey, didn't those bandits go back to report? Why haven't I seen them come back? You were the only one who stole the show during the day. I want to test my fighting skills too!"

Sensing the competitive edge in Liya's voice, I couldn't help but chuckle. This girl is already a wife, yet she hasn't shaken her curious and competitive nature. I wonder how much trouble this will cause me in the future. But letting her try is good too. Let her know that there's always someone better, that there's always someone more capable. It will greatly help her temper her behavior.

So I said, "Don't worry, you'll soon have a chance to show your talent!" As Su Ya spoke, I could already smell a hint of blood in the air, and a wisp of murderous intent emanating from the shadows.

Hua Fenghua, disheveled and clutching his chest, staggered forward, barely managing to suppress his churning blood. The two pursuing auras fueled his anxiety. All along, "Demon Fox" and "King Solomon" relentlessly stalked him, waiting for an opportunity to kill him. Twice he had nearly died at the hands of "Demon Fox," the internal injury to his chest inflicted by "Demon Fox." If his injuries weren't controlled soon, death was inevitable.

Hua Fenghua stumbled forward, the two auras closing in even closer, seemingly intent on attacking him from ahead. Despair filled his heart. He was powerless against their third attack; the previous two ambushes had already depleted twenty percent of his hard-won strength. Another attack would mean certain death.

Heaven always seemed to favor him. In his despair, a distant fire caught his attention. Someone was camping there! Desperate to survive, Hua Fenghua disregarded whether the people nearby could even protect themselves and rushed towards the fire. As the fire drew closer, when Hua Fenghua saw a man embracing two women, he couldn't contain his joy and cried out, "Holy King, save me!"

Hearing the fleeing man call me "Holy King," I was startled and immediately stood up. Before the two women could understand, I gently stretched out my hand, and the fleeing man felt an invisible force pulling him towards me. A moment later, a man covered in blood and disheveled appeared before me.

"Who are you? How dare you call me 'Holy King'!" Only the high-ranking figures of the Fire Lion Empire knew this title. How did this person know? I was utterly astonished.

Seemingly sensing the immense pressure emanating from me, Hua Fenghua knelt on one knee, half-bowed on the other, and placed her left hand on her chest, respectfully saying, "Holy King, I am 'Dragon-Tiger Warrior,' one of the four great generals of the Fire Lion Empire. I was honored to meet you that day!"

"Oh, you are 'Dragon-Tiger Warrior' Hua Fenghua. Of course, I found you charming and dignified. How come you look so disheveled today!" I exclaimed in surprise.

"Thank you for remembering me, Holy King. I was ordered by the Queen to annihilate Demon Cloud Village, but my plan was exposed, and I was hunted down by 'Demon Fox' and 'King Solomon,' which is why I have ended up in this predicament. I hope the Holy King can save me!" Hua Fenghua said gratefully.

“Since it’s Doris’s business, how can I stand idly by? General Hua, please rest aside for a moment, and allow me to hold off these pursuers!” I comforted him, gently raising my left hand. A soft white light gathered in my palm, and then I gently pressed my left hand against his head. The white light entered his head and penetrated his body. Soon, a tremendous change occurred after the white light entered his body. The wounds on his body healed, scabbed over, and fell off. The damaged meridians inside his body were restored to normal through the healing of the white light, and his damaged heart and lungs were also repaired. Hua Fenghua now felt full of strength, even stronger than before.

“Thank you for the Holy King’s grace!” Hua Fenghua looked at me gratefully and said happily.

As Hua Fenghua expressed his gratitude, the auras of “Demon Fox” and “King Solomon” also arrived. Perhaps they were skilled and bold, as they revealed themselves in front of all of us.

"General Hua, your luck is not bad, finding a few helpers so quickly. However, this only prolongs your life!" "Demon Fox" didn't detect anything unusual from Xie Yun and the two women, assuming they were just ordinary homeless people, so he couldn't help but speak sarcastically. It's no wonder he couldn't tell; after my subtle modifications, as long as the two women didn't reveal their magical fluctuations, no one could discern their cultivation level. Probably only those above the Grand Magister level could tell.

"'Demon Fox' Sphinx, stop with the sarcastic remarks. Today, it's my day that I'm spared. With the Holy King here, you can't do anything to me!" Hua Fenghua, who already knew my true nature, was now completely unfazed, unafraid of my provocation. Having me by his side was more practical than obtaining a life-saving talisman.

"Holy King? You don't mean that weak man between those two women, do you? He might be good as a gigolo, but his skills are questionable. A Holy King? Another gigolo!" "Demon Fox" stared at me, sensing nothing more than my handsome appearance, and was convinced I was a freeloader.

Before I could reply, Su Ya, who had a short temper, couldn't stand it anymore. She jumped in and yelled, "How dare you call my husband a gigolo? You're just a pretty face!"

"Demon Fox" wasn't angered by Su Ya's words. Instead, he glanced at her pretty face and sneered, "Another beautiful woman has fallen into the gigolo's trap. Beauty, why don't you come into my arms? I'll cherish you!" The lewd glint in his eyes disgusted Su Ya.

"Who would like an ugly, self-important jerk like you! You're not even one ten-thousandth, no, one millionth, of my husband, yet you dare to dream of eating swan meat!" Su Ya glanced at him and said with no small amount of contempt.

"Hmph, compared to your husband, I, 'Demon Fox,' am quite something. Although I don't have your husband's pretty boy face, my broad chest can accommodate your boundless love! Not just you, but another beauty as well, I can accommodate them all!" "Demon Fox" Sphinx spoke, his face beaming with excitement, oblivious to my increasingly cold expression.

"Pah, pah, pah, a disgusting man like you has no shame! I feel sorry for you!" Su Ya spat lightly, scolding him coquettishly.

"You—" Demon Fox seemed unable to control his emotions under Su Ya's gaze, quickly becoming speechless with anger. However, he was ultimately a clever man, quickly regaining his composure, and leered, "Beauties, soon I'll make you all throw yourselves into my arms."

"Then let's see if you have the ability." Su Ya felt a chill down her spine, knowing I was angry again, her tone turning cold, and her magical power surged wildly, causing the air around her to whistle.

"A magician?!" exclaimed "Demon Fox." He hadn't expected the seemingly defenseless woman to be a magician, and one who appeared to possess considerable skill; otherwise, he too would have been deceived.

Will Suya and the Sphinx clash? And if a fight breaks out, how will things proceed? All of this will be revealed in the next chapter.
