The protagonist stole my spiritual root? Hey, heroine, give birth to me!

Chapter 20 Zhou Wan'er's Initiative

Han Wanqing searched the entire sect but couldn't find Chen Xuan anywhere.

"Don't you know you're not allowed to go out when I'm in seclusion? When you come back, I'll teach you a lesson and make you wash my feet ten thousand times!" she muttered angrily to herself.

In the end, she found Lin Mei, the junior apprentice who had always had a very ambiguous relationship with Chen Xuan.

"Master, Uncle-Master, Junior Brother Chen Xuan left the sect a long time ago, didn't you know?"

"Why did he leave the sect? Did someone bribe him?"

"He... his spiritual root was destroyed when he was refining pills! He became a cripple and left the sect."

"Where did he go?"

"I, I don't know either..."

"Don't think I don't know. You're Chen Xuan's lover. Do you think I wouldn't tell you where he went?"

Lin Mei blushed as she said this.

"Uncle-Master, please don't misunderstand. My relationship with Junior Brother Chen Xuan isn't what you think! He... he left on his own. I didn't see him!"

Lin Mei did not actually meet Chen Xuan, but after learning that he was a cripple, she refused to meet him.

"understood."

Before Lin Mei could react, Han Wanqing had already disappeared, and no one knew where she had gone.

……

The next day, after Qin Feng "burned himself" in his actions, he finally met Liu Yanxin as he had wished.

When Liu Yanxin saw Qin Feng, she was also surprised. She did not expect that Qin Feng, who was a perfectly healthy person, would become so haggard after being locked up in the Wang family dungeon for just one night!

At this moment, Qin Feng's eyes were sunken and bloodshot, as if he had aged ten years overnight. His once upright figure now appeared somewhat hunched.

However, she felt nothing as she looked at the miserable Qin Feng.

"Qin Feng, what's wrong with you? You were fine yesterday, weren't you?" Out of politeness, Liu Yanxin still asked.

Qin Feng had been tortured and beaten all night. Now, looking at his caring fiancée, he was deeply moved. Thinking back to his previous suspicion that Liu Yanxin had gone with Chen Xuan, he really wanted to slap himself twice!

"Sigh, Yanxin, you know what kind of people the Wang family are. I just won the competition against them, and they held a grudge against me and tormented me terribly."

"Is that so? The Wang family is usually quite friendly!" Liu Yan thought to herself.

"Alas, you can know a person's face but not their heart!"

Qin Feng shook his head and said, "However, I will handle this matter myself, so you don't need to worry about me."

Although he was filled with rage, he chose to endure this shameful matter. He knew that only by bearing it in silence could he have a chance to turn things around. (Endurance) (Picture)

"Alright, did you call me here for something, or do you want me to find a way to get you out of here? I don't have that ability!"

"No, no, I wanted you to pass on a message to Chen Xuan for me."

Upon hearing Qin Feng mention Chen Xuan, Liu Yanxin became interested.

What message do you want to convey to Senior Brother Chen Xuan?

"Tell him that he absolutely must not go to my master! I can find a way out myself!"

"What can you do?"

"You don't need to worry about that, Yanxin. Oh, by the way, there are some cultivation resources in the basement of my room. You can take them and use them!"

"No need, you can keep it. I'll pass on the message. If there's nothing else, I'll be going." With that, she left the dungeon.

For some reason, she now feels somewhat resistant to Qin Feng's things.

"Yanxin is truly beautiful inside and out. I'm so lucky to have married her!" Qin Feng thought to himself as he watched Liu Yanxin leave.

He then prepared himself to receive the second wave of powerful energy, which he had promised to protect.

……

"Oh? It's Yanxin. I haven't seen you here in a long time. Is there some question about your cultivation?"

As soon as Liu Yanxin entered the room, she saw Jin Ruoyan sitting on Chen Xuan's lap, peeling grapes for him. The two looked very close and affectionate.

She frowned slightly. Although she had known for a long time that Chen Xuan and Jin Ruoyan were already husband and wife, seeing them so intimate made her inexplicably unhappy.

"No, no, it's not that. Qin Feng asked me to pass on a message to you."

"Don't worry, I've already made contact..."

"No, Qin Feng told me not to let you contact Master Han! He said he can come out on his own without disturbing her."

"I see. Since he said so, I'll believe him this once. If he can't get out of trouble, I'll still have to rescue him!"

"Mmm." After saying that, Liu Yanxin wanted to leave, but Jin Ruoyan grabbed her hand.

"Yanxin, it's been so long since we last met. Why don't you sleep here tonight? I have so much to tell you!"

Upon hearing Jin Ruoyan's words, Liu Yanxin's face instantly flushed red. She recalled the elegant moan her best friend had uttered that night.

"Ok."

……

"Alright, Madam Zhao, this week's treatment is over. I may have some matters to attend to next week and will be unable to attend. I will explain this to Lord Zhao."

Chen Xuan laboriously removed his hand from Zhou Wan'er's smooth, jade-like back and said with a serious expression.

"Didn't I tell you not to call me Mrs. Zhao here? It sounds awful," Zhou Wan'er pouted.

"Very well, ma'am."

"That's more like it~ But what's wrong? You didn't even come to my place?"

Chen Xuan was embarrassed. Zhou Wan'er was becoming increasingly difficult to handle. What kind of wild and inappropriate things was she saying? He swore to God that he really hadn't done anything to her!

"Ahem, I need to go into seclusion for a while, it won't be long."

"You want to go into the secret realm, don't you?" Zhou Wan'er bluntly pointed out.

Chen Xuan was taken aback. How did Zhou Wan'er know?

"What secret realm? I'm at the Golden Core stage, how could I possibly enter a secret realm!"

"Don't worry, I won't say anything nonsense! But I really didn't expect that you weren't at the Golden Core stage!" Zhou Wan'er said with certainty.

"How did Madam figure it out?" Chen Xuan wasn't worried, after all, Zhou Wan'er and he were in the same boat.

And she became increasingly audacious towards him, going from being cautious at the beginning, afraid that he would devour her, to him defending himself while she teased him in various ways!

"Come here~" Zhou Wan'er beckoned to Chen Xuan with her finger.

Looking at Zhou Wan'er, who was "ragged" yet stunningly beautiful, Chen Xuan swallowed hard.

This woman is really getting better and better at manipulating him. Doesn't she realize that if she gets too angry, something bad will happen to her?

Zhou Wan'er also saw Chen Xuan's embarrassment and couldn't help but feel happy. It seems that she still has a lot of charm. Chen Xuan already has two beautiful wives, but he is still infatuated with her!

Chen Xuan still moved closer to Zhou Wan'er.

She's just an ordinary person, dressed rather lightly, so what threat could she possibly pose to me?
