Chapter 758 - 418: Husband, Am I More Beautiful, or Is Qiu Zhihe?
"Healing?"
Everyone was puzzled and looked towards Qiu Zhihe, while Xue Wen nervously asked,
"Saintess, are you injured?"
Qiu Zhihe’s cheeks flushed slightly, her voice trying to remain calm, "Just a minor injury, it’s nothing serious. My husband can heal me... all of you guard Ye Xiyue."
After speaking, she stood up and walked into a bedroom with Qin Gengyun.
Everyone exchanged glances, thinking, healing is just healing, why is the Saintess blushing?
Xue Wu seemed to be pondering, as if he understood something, but then Xue Wen suddenly spoke up:
"Saintess, Xue Wu is skilled in medicine, why not have him take a look at you?"
Qiu Zhihe turned back to glare at Xue Wen, and Xue Wu quickly said, "Rest assured, Saintess, we won’t disturb you!"
"No, Xue Wu, you’re a medical cultivator, you..."
"Uncle, I’ve encountered several unclear points in my recent cultivation, please advise me."
Seeing Qiu Zhihe’s face turn redder and her gaze grow colder, Liu Xiaotang suddenly interrupted, dragging Xue Wen’s arm and pulled him away.
Xue Wu also called others to guard in front of the bathhouse, and Mo Xiaolan finally realized, wasn’t Qin Gengyun and Qiu Zhihe in Yunling Town constantly cultivating in that manner?
Now that Qin Gengyun is going to heal Qiu Zhihe, naturally, it will be the same as back in Yunling Town.
With this thought, Mo Xiaolan’s cheeks turned slightly red, "I’m going to find Wu Yiren."
"Huh? Doesn’t Sister Qiu and Uncle Qin need our protection here?"
Fang Xue was confused, and Mo Xiaolan hurriedly whispered a few words in her ear, making Fang Xue exclaim and her cheeks immediately turned bright red, quickly saying,
"Then I’ll go find Sister Si too!"
The two young girls ran off with flushed faces.
Yun Wu and Wei Wan already knew what was happening; Yun Wu wanted to remind Qiu Zhihe, but Wei Wan pulled her into Liu Su and the Celestial Phoenix Maiden’s room.
Lin Qingchou clung to Chun Ningzhi, charmingly smiling, "Senior Brother Chun, I’m injured too, could you heal me as well?"
Chun Ningzhi’s eyes showed a hint of struggle; he didn’t know why he followed Lin Qingchou away from Zhenyang Sect and ended up among the Demon Sect members. But seeing Junior Sister Lin’s eyes filled with affection, he was instantly captivated.
"Alright, Junior Sister, I’ll follow your lead."
Lin Qingchou giggled, took a room key from a Cyan Lotus Sect member, and entered the room with Chun Ningzhi.
Soon, besides Xue Wu and others guarding outside the bathhouse, only Zhou Ling’Er and Xu Caihe were left in the courtyard.
The two faced each other, dumbfounded.
"Caihe, what’s going on?"
"I don’t know either, hey, Ling’Er, is Sister Qiu really that... that person?"
"Yes, Caihe, you don’t know how fierce the fights in Chang’an Palace were; I almost threw up when I went in to have a look!"
"Oh my, knowing so much, do you think we’ll be silenced?"
Xu Caihe was terrified as she listened to Zhou Ling’Er recount the events in Chang’an Palace. Zhou Ling’Er pulled her aside, whispering,
"Caihe, do you think it’s possible that since we know so many secrets, they haven’t acted against us because they’ve accepted us as one of their own?"
Xu Caihe startled, "But I’ve never thought about joining them! Wouldn’t they ask our opinion first?"
Zhou Ling’Er asked, "If they did ask you, would you agree?"
Xu Caihe thought and said, "If saying no means I might die, then yes, I would agree!"
Xu Caihe immediately responded but then frowned,
"But my father is the City Lord of Zhenlian City, and Zhenlian City is Zhenyang Sect’s territory. If I join the Demon... Cyan Lotus Sect, what will happen to my parents and Zhenlian City?"
"Caihe, do you think it’s possible," Zhou Ling’Er mused, rubbing her chin, "that the Cyan Lotus Sect might replace Zhenyang Sect and become the leader of the Righteous Path in the world?"
"Huh?"
Inside the bedroom.
"This is Xiaotang’s bedroom; it’s a bit small, but we don’t need to make major moves; it should be enough."
"Husband, would you like some water?"
"Or perhaps you should take some pills first?"
"Wife..." Qin Gengyun interrupted Qiu Zhihe, asking,
"Are you a little nervous?"
Qiu Zhihe paused, her almond eyes widened as she glared at him, "I am the Demon Sect Saintess; how could something like this make me nervous?"
After speaking, she waved her hand elegantly, setting up more than ten Isolation Arrays to ensure that not the slightest sound could escape.
Qin Gengyun shook his head with a chuckle, stepping forward and gently embracing her, "We always did things as normal couples do, but now, it feels wrong to ask you to use that method for the first time. Are you not nervous?"
"Don’t say any more!"
Qiu Zhihe raised her hand to cover his mouth; Qin Gengyun removed her hand and whispered,
"Such a shameful method, where did you learn about it?"
Qiu Zhihe’s delicate earlobes turned crimson, and she whispered, "Liu Su likes reading books of stories; out of curiosity, I peeked at one, and it was written inside..."
Qin Gengyun was surprised, "The esteemed Demon Sect Saintess actually reads such books?"
"Do you still want it or not?!"
Qiu Zhihe became anxious, shook Qin Gengyun’s hand away, and went to the side angrily.
Qin Gengyun chuckled, his voice suddenly becoming serious,
"Wife, you’ve lied to me for so long; you think this can just be brushed aside?"
Qiu Zhihe paused, her demeanor weakened considerably, her voice softened, "Then... what do you want?"
Qin Gengyun chuckled, "It’s said that the Demon Sect Saintess Xia Qinglian is unparalleled in beauty, cold yet unmatched. Many have seen her, except me; is that not unfair?"
Qiu Zhihe realized what he meant and glared at Qin Gengyun in a mix of shame and anger, "Husband, are you suggesting I transform into Xia Qinglian for you to..."
Qin Gengyun suddenly said, "By the way, during the beast tide, that Seventh Grade Red Flame Fox was repelled by me, a mere Golden Core cultivator. Isn’t that strange? Wife, do you have anything to explain?"
"I..."
Qiu Zhihe’s body stiffened, and under Qin Gengyun’s compelling gaze, she had to confess,
"That Red Flame Fox was me in disguise."
Qin Gengyun pressed forward while Qiu Zhihe retreated step by step until she was pinned against the wall.
"Wife, you’ve made me suffer so greatly with your deceptions."
"Husband, I promise you."
Qiu Zhihe, captured and embarrassed, cast a sidelong glance at Qin Gengyun. Her body slowly grew taller, and her cute little round face gradually transformed into an elegant oval face.
Her almond eyes turned into enchanting peach blossom eyes, her legs became more slender, and even the already ample bosom became more abundant.
Qin Gengyun watched in astonishment as his adorable wife transformed before him into a tall and cold beauty.
Xia Qinglian, unable to withstand his direct gaze, retorted angrily, "Have you seen enough yet?"
Her voice was crisp with a hint of coldness, though her face showed a blush.
This cold yet shy demeanor was breathtakingly beautiful and captivating.
Qin Gengyun regained his composure and sincerely said, "Wife, you are truly beautiful!"
Xia Qinglian shot him a glance, "Is it me who is beautiful, or is Qiu Zhihe more beautiful?"
Qin Gengyun was startled, "Wife, you’re jealous of yourself?"
