Free Web NovelChapter 563: Chapter 223: Helping My Sister-in-Law Cultivate
"Senior Brother Shi, do you think Senior Sister Ye really likes Junior Brother He? But doesn’t Senior Brother He already have Junior Sister Ruo?"
"Don’t talk nonsense! Junior Sister Ruo might just be practicing with He Zhiqiu."
"Senior Brother Shi, haven’t you already transferred your affections to Junior Sister Zhou Ling’er?"
"Shut up!"
Tonight, Shi Ying was on duty, along with another disciple of the Divinity Transformation Peak named Zhong Bo.
Late-night shifts were quite dull, and Zhong Bo was chatty, eventually bringing up the love triangle between Ye Xiyue, Ruo Mei, and He Zhiqiu.
The more Shi Ying listened, the more frustrated he became. Initially, he was fond of the gentle-looking yet fiercely powerful Ruo Mei, but He Zhiqiu got to her first.
So, he turned his attention to the kind-hearted Xu Caihe, only to find out she seemed to like He Zhiqiu too.
And that’s not all; even the highly admired Senior Sister Ye Xiyue of the Zhenyang Sect was fond of He Zhiqiu, competing with Ruo Mei for his attention.
Shi Ying was at a loss. He couldn’t understand what was so great about He Zhiqiu.
In terms of muscles, his solid build was no less impressive than He Zhiqiu’s!
As they were talking, a tall and sturdy figure appeared ahead—it was He Zhiqiu. Zhong Bo approached him curiously and asked:
"Junior Brother He, where are you going so late?"
He Zhiqiu smiled and said, "Thanks for your hard work, Senior Brothers. I’m going to see Junior Sister Ruo."
Zhong Bo’s expression froze, and he instinctively glanced at Shi Ying.
As expected, Shi Ying’s face showed a hint of discomfort as he said to Qin Gengyun:
"Junior Brother He, the murderer of Junior Brother Zheng and Junior Brother Li hasn’t been caught yet. Senior Sister Suxin instructed us not to wander around at night."
Qin Gengyun smiled and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother Shi. Don’t worry, once I’m at my wife’s room, I won’t come out."
"W-wife?"
Zhong Bo was shocked, and Shi Ying was stunned.
Qin Gengyun bowed to both of them, "Senior Brothers, I shall take my leave."
He walked quite a distance before the two were still standing dumbfounded. Zhong Bo finally reacted, excitedly:
"Senior Brother Shi, did you hear that? It turns out Junior Brother He has already become Dao companions with Junior Sister Ruo. That’s great, now you don’t have to trouble yourself over it anymore!"
Shi Ying turned and looked at him, "Thank you very much!"
Zhong Bo chuckled awkwardly, not daring to say more.
The two continued their silent patrol of the mountain, but their minds were filled with thoughts of Junior Brother He holding someone tenderly, making the night wind feel even colder.
"Senior Brother Shi, why is it getting colder?"
Zhong Bo rubbed his shoulders, a bit puzzled. He had already summoned his spiritual power for warmth, but still felt chilly.
Shi Ying snorted, "Focus and stop thinking nonsense!"
At this moment, a shadow appeared behind them, drifting silently yet at an incredible speed. In the blink of an eye, it swept past them, and despite their Golden Core Realm cultivation, they didn’t sense a thing.
The shadow seemed very familiar with Cyan Lotus Mountain and soon reached the western side of the mountaintop, where the female disciples of the Zhenyang Sect resided.
Its target, however, was not the female disciples, but...
Qin Gengyun!
At that moment, in the shadow’s eyes, the yang energy emanating from Qin Gengyun was like a blazing sun, drawing it irresistibly.
Driven by the most primal impulse, the light in its eyes grew deeper, exuding a beast-like desire. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
In an instant, the white shadow transformed into a blindingly fast stream of light, lunging toward Qin Gengyun!
"Husband."
Suddenly, a voice rang out, causing the white shadow to freeze and vanish instantly.
Qin Gengyun, surprised and delighted, looked at Qiu Zhihe ahead and took a couple of steps forward, "Wife, why are you here?"
Qiu Zhihe, slightly reproachful, said to him:
"Husband, someone was just killed last night, and you’re out so late. Aren’t you afraid of the danger?"
Qin Gengyun took her hand, "Wife, did you know I’d come looking for you and waited deliberately?"
Qiu Zhihe blushed, pulled her hand away, "Husband, we’re outside!"
Qin Gengyun laughed, "Then let’s head inside quickly."
Following Qin Gengyun to her house, Qiu Zhihe suddenly stopped, looking back in puzzlement.
Qin Gengyun turned back, "Wife, what is it?"
Qiu Zhihe shook her head, "It’s nothing."
The couple entered the house side by side, and Qin Gengyun immediately embraced Qiu Zhihe, "Wife, now no one can see us."
In fact, he came to find Qiu Zhihe tonight because he was worried she’d feel emotional revisiting old places and wanted to be with her during her moments of sadness.
Earlier, seeing his wife meet him deliberately outside, Qin Gengyun was thrilled.
Now, inside the room, looking at her charmingly beautiful face, Qin Gengyun couldn’t hold back anymore.
They hadn’t had the chance to truly express their love.
Now that his wife had returned home, it was the perfect time to thoroughly comfort her.
"Tsk tsk tsk, cold to others but eager with the young lady. Master is so biased!"
"Ahem!"
An abrupt voice interrupted, and Qin Gengyun turned, finding Liu Su at the table, cheeks resting on her hands, smiling at him.
Beside Liu Su was Mo Xiaolan, whose face was crimson with embarrassment as she lowered her head and coughed to cover her awkwardness.
Qin Gengyun was stunned, "Why are you two here?"
Qiu Zhihe, blushing, pushed him away, sweeping a stray lock behind her ear, "I asked them to come over. Aren’t you helping Susu cultivate? Xiaolan can assist by keeping guard."
Qin Gengyun quickly whispered, "Wife, then tonight we..."
Qiu Zhihe, her cheeks flushed, shot him a glance, "I need to go out for a bit."
Qin Gengyun asked, "Wife, where are you going? It’s late, let me go with you."
"No need, you two focus on cultivating. Susu, no slacking off—I will check your progress when I’m back!"
Not waiting for a reply, Qiu Zhihe darted out of the room.
"Wife!"
Qin Gengyun wanted to follow but was stopped by Liu Su, who clung to his arm sweetly:
"Master, I can keep you company too!"
Qin Gengyun, helpless, pinched Liu Su’s ear:
"Are you intentionally keeping me occupied? Tell me, what is my wife up to?!"
"Ouch!"
Liu Su cried out in pain, her tone pitiful, "Master, you’re so mean! Can’t you be gentle with me?" freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
Suddenly, Qin Gengyun pulled her onto the bed, and Liu Su exclaimed joyfully, "Master, have you finally made up your mind?"
Mo Xiaolan’s face turned beet red, almost fleeing out of the room.
Qin Gengyun said exasperatedly, "Wife said to help you cultivate, so let’s get on with it!"
Liu Su sneered, "Can the Master do it or not? Oww!"
Raucous noise filled the room, while outside, after setting up a protective array, Qiu Zhihe quietly left and headed to the back mountain of Cyan Lotus Mountain.
Suddenly, she halted, looking back coldly:
"You’ve been following me all the way, come out."
