Chapter 89 Invincible Domain
"My Lady, just focus on Breaking Through to the Great Emperor Realm. I'll handle the rest." Chen Qing patted his chest, guaranteeing with certainty.
"Alright!" Hearing Chen Qing's words, Xia Qingyue's heart, which had been extremely nervous and anxious, gradually calmed down.
More than for herself, she didn't want to disappoint Chen Qing's expectations.
Others might not know how much Chen Qing had invested after she impulsively decided to Cultivate, but how could Xia Qingyue not know?
If she couldn't achieve the Emperor Realm, she would be letting herself down, and even more so, Chen Qing.
The more she thought about it, the more her desire to Breakthrough to the Emperor Realm became an obsession. She had to achieve it with all her might, just to have a clear conscience and not let down her beloved…
While she was repeatedly attempting to Breakthrough to the Emperor Realm, outside, on the Peak of a mountain named Tailingshan.
An old man sweeping outside the courtyard heard the sound of a door opening and quickly put down his broom, stepping forward to kneel and salute, "This old servant greets Your Excellency!"
"How many years has it been? I didn't expect anyone would still want to achieve the Emperor Dao." Heavenly Profound Great Emperor looked into the distance, muttering.
"Someone wants to achieve the Emperor Dao?" The sweeping old man was startled, "But, people from the Upper Realm shouldn't have the guts to do that."
As Heavenly Profound Great Emperor's servant, he had clearly witnessed the scenes where audacious individuals who tried to achieve the Emperor Dao were brutally annihilated by his master's domineering hand.
After such incidents occurred repeatedly, achieving the Emperor Dao became a taboo, seen as a challenge to the Great Emperor's authority.
Unless one possessed absolute strength and confidence, ordinary Cultivators would not easily attempt to step onto the Emperor Dao. Instead, they would choose to continue lying low, waiting for the old Great Emperor to age and naturally perish.
"This person is not in the Upper Realm, but in the Lower Realm, a place called the Great Wu Dynasty." Heavenly Profound Great Emperor precisely located Xia Qingyue's aura.
"Lower Realm? Someone from such a place can achieve the Emperor Dao?" This was something the sweeping old man had never expected. He hadn't even heard of the Great Wu Dynasty.
"These past years, I've only been focused on suppressing the Upper Realm and have neglected the Lower Realm. It's only normal for such an overconfident person to appear."
With that, Heavenly Profound Great Emperor looked down at the sweeping old man before him and commanded, "You go to the Lower Realm and resolve this matter."
"Yes, Your Excellency." The sweeping old man accepted the order.
He knew full well that his master felt it would be beneath him to personally act against someone from the Lower Realm, as word of it would diminish his status.
After all, in the eyes of the Upper Realm, the Lower Realm had always been considered a barren land, not even worth ruling.
As a servant, especially one with a slave mark, the sweeping old man could only follow Heavenly Profound Great Emperor's instructions.
He set off immediately for the Lower Realm.
Though he said he was setting off, in reality, for Wei Kang, who possessed the Peak of Quasi-Emperor Realm Cultivation and was the strongest below the Great Emperor, going from Tailingshan to the Great Wu Dynasty was but a thought away.
A Formation diagram appeared above the Great Wu Imperial Palace, and Wei Kang slowly descended from within it.
Once he fully materialized, the Formation diagram dissipated.
Instead of searching for her house by house, Wei Kang immediately unleashed his Quasi-Emperor Divine Might like a torrent, overwhelming the entire Great Wu Dynasty within an extremely short time.
The purpose of doing this was to pressure Xia Qingyue, letting her know he had arrived.
Xia Qingyue didn't sense it, but Chen Qing felt it clearly.
As he had predicted, Xia Qingyue didn't have a System, and even if he could provide her with assistance, she was still limited by the Heavenly Dao's order.
If she wanted to achieve the Emperor Dao, she had to climb over the corpses of her predecessors.
And as the old Great Emperor, Heavenly Profound Great Emperor naturally wouldn't just watch as everything he had painstakingly built was taken away; he would surely act to stop it.
Chen Qing could understand Heavenly Profound Great Emperor; being in a high position, it's hard not to make enemies, and with the Great Emperor identity, he could still suppress those people.
Once he perished and lost that identity, those jackals and wolves would likely pounce immediately, tearing him to shreds!
But that couldn't be a reason for him to send someone to hinder his Lady from achieving the Great Emperor Dao.
Chen Qing didn't intend to indulge the other party either.
With a thought, he instantly appeared before Wei Kang, about seven or eight meters away.
"Are you the one who's fantasizing about achieving the Emperor Dao?" Wei Kang asked directly.
After speaking, he shook his head, thinking why he was wasting so many words. He should just kill Chen Qing and report back.
As his five fingers opened and clenched, a long spear appeared in his hand, and his Quasi-Emperor Divine Might, like surging river water, mercilessly rushed towards Chen Qing.
He sought to make the opponent understand that although they were both at the Peak of Quasi-Emperor, the difference in their foundation was like a chasm!
Seeing that Wei Kang was a Spear Cultivator and had the Peak of Quasi-Emperor Cultivation.
Chen Qing also took out the Myriad Dragon Spear.
"You're also a Spear Cultivator?" Wei Kang was a little surprised.
His gaze fell on the Myriad Dragon Spear in Chen Qing's hand, observing it carefully, and he acknowledged, "It's a good spear. After you die, this old man will make good use of it."
Immediately, he seized the initiative and struck. A cold gleam arrived first, followed by the spear striking out like a Dragon!
The Spear Intent materialized, piercing directly towards Chen Qing, determined to put an end to this farce with one strike, instantly tearing Chen Qing's Physical Body to shreds.
Seeing this, Chen Qing casually returned a spear strike to Wei Kang.
Wei Kang frowned slightly at this, having never seen someone fight to the death so casually. He felt he was being underestimated by Chen Qing.
However, in the next moment, Wei Kang no longer thought so, or rather, he dared not think so.
Chen Qing's spear, also with materialized Spear Intent, transformed into a hundred-zhang silver Dragon phantom, instantly opening its abyssal maw and pouring down on Wei Kang like a mountain.
In front of that silver Dragon phantom, Wei Kang suddenly felt powerless in body and mind, as tiny as an ant.
His previously perceived difference in foundation was mercilessly slapped away.
The Spear Intent he had unleashed didn't even have the qualifications to contend head-on; it was shattered just by touching the residual power of the Dragon phantom.
Fight back? His Dao Heart was already shattered. How could he have the will? Even if he had the will, he was powerless.
The dignified Peak Quasi-Emperor was instantly obliterated by the Dragon phantom unleashed by Chen Qing's single spear strike, crushed so thoroughly that not a single bone fragment remained.
"Is he really that weak?" Chen Qing was a little disappointed.
Throughout the entire process, he hadn't even used one-hundred-millionth of his spiritual power.
That spear strike was more about brute force.
Yet, even with him holding back so much, Wei Kang still couldn't withstand a single blow.
However, very quickly, Chen Qing's attention was drawn to the System panel that popped up before him.
"Successful Doting on Wife! Congratulations to the Host for receiving a random reward: Invincible Domain +1!"
'Invincible Domain? This is good!'
Without needing to check the detailed description, Chen Qing could already easily understand its function just from the words "Invincible Domain."
Upon checking, he learned that the Invincible Domain could cover several hundred zhang. Within the Domain, Chen Qing was invincible; no one could defeat him.
Even if Outer Realm Demonic Gods stronger than the Supreme Great Emperor descended, within the Domain, they would be forcibly weakened by the power of rules until they could be instantly killed by Chen Qing.
The more he looked, the more he liked it.
However, he hadn't been happy for long when a Divine Might far more powerful than that of a Peak Quasi-Emperor came rolling in!
***
Chapter 90: Kill the Emperor and Prove the Path to Emperorhood
Consort Chen's expression remained normal and calm, knowing that this was because his dog had been killed, and its master behind it couldn't sit still, wanting to come and settle the score.
Afraid? What was there to be afraid of? Even without this Invincible Domain, Chen Qing was still a Supreme Great Emperor, so why would he need to put an ordinary Great Emperor in his eyes?
Rather than fearing him, Chen Qing was more curious: if a Peak Quasi-Emperor could contribute an Invincible Domain as a reward, to what extent could a Great Emperor contribute?
Secondly, by slaying a Great Emperor, with no one in the Emperor Realm, Xia Qingyue's Path to Dao could become even smoother.
"How audacious of you! You dare to kill my people before even reaching the Emperor Realm! You truly don't put this Emperor in your eyes!" Heavenly Profound Great Emperor could no longer remember when he had last been this angry.
Accustomed to being high above, believing himself to be invincible in the world, he could not tolerate any rebellious behavior, let alone the killing of a confidant who had followed him for a hundred years.
"The premise is that you must have the ability to make this Emperor put you in his eyes," Chen Qing replied lightly.
He didn't take Heavenly Profound Great Emperor's Imperial Might to heart at all; it had no effect on him, like an ant trying to shake a tree.
"This Emperor?" Heavenly Profound Great Emperor was amused by Chen Qing's words. "It's been many years since anyone dared to call himself 'This Emperor' in front of this Emperor. Good, you are very good!"
While speaking, he continuously strengthened his Imperial Might, attempting to destroy Chen Qing's will and drive him insane.
But gradually, Heavenly Profound Great Emperor began to notice something was off. No matter how much he increased his Imperial Might, Chen Qing remained standing there as if nothing had happened.
After reconfirming, a bold idea immediately formed in Heavenly Profound Great Emperor's mind: "You, you little brat, have you perhaps successfully reached the Emperor Realm?"
Seeing that Chen Qing did not deny it, and combining it with previous events, Heavenly Profound Great Emperor became even more convinced of this point.
The result was not anger but laughter: "You can actually break the Heavenly Dao's order and forcefully reach the Emperor Realm. Quick, tell me, how did you do it?"
Heavenly Profound Great Emperor believed that if he could get the answer from Chen Qing, perhaps he too could break the Law and transform from mortal to immortal!
Seeing that Chen Qing seemed reluctant to tell him, Heavenly Profound Great Emperor then said, "As long as you tell this Emperor how you broke the Heavenly Dao's Law, this Emperor can let bygones be bygones for everything that happened before."
He, like Wei Kang, believed that even if Chen Qing successfully reached the Emperor Realm, in terms of foundation, he was far inferior to himself, an old Great Emperor. If a war truly broke out, it would only be asking for trouble.
He was convinced that since they had already offered him a way out, Chen Qing had no reason to refuse.
"Are your last words finished?"
"..." Chen Qing's next sentence, however, made Heavenly Profound Great Emperor's expression freeze, and the words on his lips abruptly stopped.
"Since you are unwilling to speak, then this Emperor can only use some forceful methods!" Heavenly Profound Great Emperor did not harbor murderous intent; he purely wanted to make a move to teach Chen Qing a lesson.
So that he would understand what it meant that there were always people stronger than you, and heavens beyond heavens!
Don't think that successfully reaching the Emperor Realm truly made one invincible.
If Chen Qing still refused to compromise and tell the truth, Heavenly Profound Great Emperor wouldn't mind using Soul Searching on him after killing him, forcefully seizing the part of his memory related to breaking the Heavenly Dao's Law.
However, just as Heavenly Profound Great Emperor was about to mobilize the power of heaven and earth to show Chen Qing what he was capable of, and to make him understand that there were also strong and weak among Great Emperors, at that very moment.
Behind Chen Qing, the Great Emperor Divine Mark Ring appeared, and his Imperial Might, like a thousand miles of mountains and rivers, pressed down directly on Heavenly Profound Great Emperor's head.
It directly forced him from mid-air back to the ground, creating a massive deep pit.
Although Heavenly Profound Great Emperor tried his best to resist this Imperial Power, his knees could not support it and bent little by little.
He also cried out in disbelief, "Impossible! This is absolutely impossible! You clearly just reached the Emperor Realm, why, why can you crush this Emperor!"
No matter how much Heavenly Profound Great Emperor refused to admit it, being crushed by Chen Qing's Imperial Might was an undeniable fact.
He had clearly wanted to make Chen Qing understand that there were also differences between Great Emperors.
The result was that his face was swollen!
Chen Qing disdained to explain so much to a person who was destined to die. He gently raised his fingertip, and then gently lowered it.
With a loud boom!
Heavenly Profound Great Emperor, who had ruled the Heavenly Profound Continent for many years, was forcefully crushed by that invisible, intangible Imperial Might. His Physical Body exploded, his bones turned to dust, and his blood burst open like mist.
A generation's Great Emperor had fallen.
[Successful spoiling of wife! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a random reward: Great Emperor Shadow Puppet +10!]
"Killing one Great Emperor, gaining ten Great Emperors, it's not a loss," Chen Qing nodded with satisfaction.
After confirming that all the bugs obstructing Xia Qingyue's Path to Dao were cleared, Chen Qing turned and returned to the Hundred Times Cultivation Space to continue protecting her Path...
With his departure, the invisible hand that had been pressing down on the heads of millions in the entire Great Wu Dynasty was finally lifted.
Seeing the secret agent appear, Martial Emperor Xia Cheng, who was slumped on the Dragon Throne, still looking shaken, quickly asked, "The result, what was the result?"
"Heavenly Profound Great Emperor was, was suppressed and killed by Consort Chen with a single thought." Even though he had witnessed it with his own eyes, the secret agent still couldn't believe at this moment that it had truly happened.
The Great Emperor, who was infinitely close to the word 'invincible' in his eyes, was actually instantly killed by someone.
"Suppressing and killing a Great Emperor with a single thought!!" Xia Cheng's already pale face grew even paler upon learning of this matter.
He kept emphasizing internally, 'He is my son-in-Law, no need to panic, no need to fear...'
He tried to stabilize his inner self with this.
Returning to the Hundred Times Cultivation Space.
Time flew by quickly.
Rumble!
Hearing the sound, Chen Qing looked up and saw the tribulation clouds appear, with Heavenly Lightning flashing like pythons.
He knew that Xia Qingyue was now only one step away from the Emperor Realm.
Success or failure depended on this one attempt!
Boom!
The first bolt of Heavenly Lightning struck, hitting Xia Qingyue directly on the head.
Nothing happened.
Boom!
The second, third, fourth, fifth... bolts of Heavenly Lightning fell one after another.
As the number of Heavenly Lightning strikes increased and the frequency became higher, Xia Qingyue's brows furrowed tighter and tighter, and more and more cold sweat trickled down her face.
Fortunately, with the Hundred Times Cultivation Space continuously providing Spiritual Qi, and the support of the Empress of Destiny's halo, the Lightning Tribulation was passed with alarm but no danger.
After the tribulation clouds dispersed, Xia Qingyue slowly opened her eyes, and the Great Emperor Divine Mark Ring, unique to her, also appeared behind her.
"Husband, I, I have successfully reached the Dao! I have entered the Great Emperor Realm!" Xia Qingyue suddenly stood up, eager to share this good news with Chen Qing, and rushed into his embrace.
Chen Qing embraced Xia Qingyue's waist with one hand and gently stroked Xia Qingyue's long hair with the other, "Your husband always believed you could do it."
Afterward, through further conversation, Chen Qing also learned from Xia Qingyue that she had not only successfully entered the Emperor Realm but had also awakened her innate Imperial Weapon!
It would be false to say he wasn't envious, but fortunately, Chen Qing had the System.
Assisting his wife in reaching the Great Emperor Realm, how could that not count as spoiling his wife?
***
Chapter 91 The Reality of Husband and Wife
Successfully doted on wife! Congratulations to the Host for receiving a random reward: Heavenly Dao Emperor Weapon Ten Consecutive Draws +1!
Chen Qing, certain that he hadn't misread and that it was indeed a Heavenly Dao Emperor Weapon Ten Consecutive Draws opportunity, couldn't help but believe even more that his thoughts, at certain times, could influence the System's rewards. Even if the probability was very low, it was definitely not zero.
While Xia Qingyue was still stabilizing her Cultivation, Chen Qing opened the System backpack, selected the Heavenly Dao Emperor Weapon Ten Consecutive Draws opportunity, and confirmed its use!
Performing ten consecutive draws...
Ten consecutive draws successful! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining a Heavenly Dao Emperor Weapon: Chaos Bell!
Ten consecutive draws successful! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining a Heavenly Dao Emperor Weapon: Heavenly Punishment Sword!
Ten consecutive draws successful! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining a Heavenly Dao Emperor Weapon: Star Bow!
Ten consecutive draws successful! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining a Heavenly Dao Emperor Weapon: Sky Sorrow Guqin!
Even though he had successfully attained the Dao as a Great Emperor, and the probability of Awakening Heavenly Dao Emperor Weapons was extremely slim, Chen Qing easily obtained ten of them through the Ten Consecutive Draws opportunity.
Xia Qingyue knew nothing of this. After finally adapting to the Physical Body and spiritual enhancements brought by her Great Emperor Cultivation, she reached out into the Void Realm and retrieved her Awakened Heavenly Dao Emperor Weapon, the Grandmist Sword.
"My husband doesn't seem to have Awakened a Heavenly Dao Emperor Weapon. I already possess the Primordial Azure Sky Sword, so I wish to bestow this Grandmist Sword upon my husband."
Xia Qingyue truly didn't recall Chen Qing ever using a Heavenly Dao Emperor Weapon or mentioning anything about it, which was why she proposed to give her Awakened Emperor Weapon, the Grandmist Sword, to Chen Qing.
Beyond that, Xia Qingyue truly couldn't think of any other way to express her gratitude to Chen Qing.
This Grandmist Sword was already the best bargaining chip she could offer at the moment.
She believed that Chen Qing could unleash the full power of the Emperor Weapon better than she could.
"Who says I haven't Awakened a Heavenly Dao Emperor Weapon?"
Chen Qing was content with Xia Qingyue's thoughtfulness; it was better for her to keep the Grandmist Sword for her own use.
Even setting aside the Seven Stars Saber, Chen Qing had just acquired ten Heavenly Dao Emperor Weapons through the Ten Consecutive Draws.
If one were to discuss the Great Emperor least lacking in Emperor Weapons, if Chen Qing claimed second, no one would dare claim first.
"My husband also has a Heavenly Dao Emperor Weapon?" Xia Qingyue pressed.
It was hard not to suspect that Chen Qing was lying to make her keep the Grandmist Sword.
After all, he had always been so gentle and meticulous; Xia Qingyue had never doubted that.
Seeing that Xia Qingyue didn't believe him, Chen Qing didn't mind showing off a bit.
Behind him, cracks in the Void Realm opened, and the Chaos Bell, Heavenly Punishment Sword, Star Bow, Sky Sorrow Guqin... one by one, they appeared from within, circling Chen Qing.
...After counting and discovering there were indeed ten Heavenly Dao Emperor Weapons, Xia Qingyue stood frozen for a long time, taking a while to recover.
"If I'm not mistaken, even if a Great Emperor can truly Awaken a Heavenly Dao Emperor Weapon, no one has ever Awakened two. My husband, you, you actually Awakened ten!" After a long while, Xia Qingyue finally uttered this sentence.
"There always has to be a first, doesn't there?" Chen Qing said with a smile.
Xia Qingyue's 'first' referred to Awakening two Emperor Weapons, setting a precedent, but Chen Qing's 'first' was Awakening ten Emperor Weapons.
This leap was truly a bit grand!
She couldn't help but sigh inwardly, 'Is this the gap between ordinary people and top Prodigies?'
"Since that's the case, I'll keep this Grandmist Sword for myself then." Xia Qingyue retrieved the Grandmist Sword and stored it back in the Void Realm, no longer insisting.
Chen Qing also returned the ten Heavenly Dao Emperor Weapons from whence they came.
He saw that Xia Qingyue had something on her mind, extended his hand, gently cupped her cheek, and said, "If my wife truly wishes to repay me, life is still long; there's no need to rush at this moment."
"Mhm." Xia Qingyue nodded lightly, feeling that Chen Qing's words made a lot of sense. Her remaining life was not even half over, so why rush?
"If my wife truly wishes to repay me, compared to these divine Sharp Weapons, I would rather raise a daughter."
Chen Qing's sudden change of topic almost made Xia Qingyue's waist give out.
Cough, cough, cough! The words on her lips were suddenly choked back.
"Is my husband serious, or are you joking with me?" Xia Qingyue, after a slight recovery, suddenly looked up.
Their eyes met, and her face was serious.
Seeing this, Chen Qing's heart held only two words: It's settled!
Since Xia Qingyue was so serious, Chen Qing naturally couldn't gloss over it.
He stepped forward, closer, and pulled Xia Qingyue into his embrace, "I have never spoken a single false word to my wife."
"I know nothing about such matters; everything... depends entirely on my husband..." Xia Qingyue leaned against Chen Qing's chest, her attitude couldn't be clearer.
"I've got this!" After confirming Xia Qingyue's attitude, Chen Qing no longer hesitated. He bent at the waist and lifted her from the ground into his arms.
Xia Qingyue didn't resist, allowing Chen Qing to hold her, as docile as a porcelain doll.
She was carried out of the Hundred-Fold Cultivation Space and, in the blink of an eye, arrived in the bedroom.
Chen Qing treated her like a exquisite work of art, truly afraid of dropping her if held in his hand, and afraid of melting her if held in his mouth. He carefully placed Xia Qingyue onto the bed.
Xia Qingyue turned her head to the side, her blushing cheeks unable to be hidden. She could only avert her gaze, too shy to look directly at Chen Qing.
Before the deed, Chen Qing, with a thought, deployed his most powerful array to block the System, solely to avoid disturbance.
Having finally reached this point, as the villain, to share the intimacy of husband and wife with the destined heroine, even if the Heavenly King of Dao came, he would have to wait outside the courtyard!
Anyone who dared to ruin Chen Qing's good deed, if a god stood in the way, he would kill the god; if a buddha stood in the way, he would kill the buddha!
Now, compared to the Great Emperor Cultivation reward for completing the act of husband and wife with Xia Qingyue, Chen Qing cared more about gaining her as a person.
Living together day and night like this, to say he wasn't moved was certainly false.
Even without the System's existence, Chen Qing would not allow Ye Feng, the protagonist, or anyone else, to take Xia Qingyue away from him.
Silk and satin scattered on the floor, no more barriers between the two.
Xia Qingyue gently bit her lip, her eyes slightly closed, her hands tightly embracing Chen Qing's broad shoulders and back...
Her brows no longer furrowed as they initially did due to pain and discomfort; instead, she was clearly immersed, and the corners of her lips curved upward...
Everything was developing steadily for the better.
Not just Chen Qing, but also Ye Feng.
Although he had completely lost Xia Qingyue, he had gained another daily sign-in opportunity, so it was a matter of gains and losses.
"Great! The sign-in count has been refreshed again! Indeed, as long as I fully immerse myself in Cultivation, time passes very quickly!" Ye Feng opened his eyes, looking at the refreshed daily sign-in count, his expression joyful.
However, for some reason, his chest had felt a bit stuffy since a moment ago.
There was an indescribable discomfort.
The more he tried to ignore it, the stronger the feeling became, as if a cat was scratching wildly in his heart, making it truly difficult to calm down.
"Could it be that Heaven is hinting to me that today's sign-in will yield a treasure!"
***
Chapter 92: Have children and become an Immortal Emperor!
Thinking of this, Ye Feng became even more excited, believing that it was very likely a premonition, just as he had thought.
He stopped overthinking and directly clicked to start today's check-in!
[Currently performing daily check-in...]
[Daily check-in successful! Congratulations to the Host for receiving the reward: Nine-Rank Pills +10!]
"Ten Ninth-Grade Medicinal Pills..."
Ye Feng was slightly disappointed. It wasn't that Ninth-Grade Medicinal Pills were bad, but they fell far short of the Heaven-Defying rewards he had imagined.
Moreover, even after taking the Medicinal Pills, swallowing them, and beginning to Cultivate, the feeling of vexation in his heart still hadn't disappeared.
Not even knowing the cause, Ye Feng was powerless to do anything about it.
He could only force himself to calm his inner self, compel himself not to care, and put all his energy into Cultivation.
He still had to complete the small goal he had set earlier, to ascend to the Great Emperor Realm. How could he have time to waste on such unimportant matters?
Perhaps it was just that his previous Cultivation was too eager for quick success, leading to accelerated Qi and blood.
Before convincing others, Ye Feng first convinced himself.
This method indeed worked, and soon, he fully immersed himself in the state of breaking through to the next Realm...
Meanwhile, Chen Qing was equally busy.
He was very curious: if the villain and the female protagonist destined by Heaven truly had offspring, would they be considered Children of Luck? Or would they inherit the villain's mantle?
...
"I can't anymore, Husband, I, I really have no strength left."
Xia Qingyue was soft as mud, collapsing onto Chen Qing's chest, her body drenched in fragrant sweat, her breathing heavy.
Chen Qing, meanwhile, wrapped his arm around Xia Qingyue, feeling the dampness, stickiness, and warmth when their skin touched.
"My wife truly surprises me; she's like a completely different person," Chen Qing said from the bottom of his heart.
Beforehand, he never would have imagined that Xia Qingyue, whose romantic life was a blank slate, would be so incredibly wild and insatiable in that regard.
It was as if Pandora's Box had been opened!
From initial shyness to complete immersion, there was almost no transition.
Each whisper of "Husband, more" close to his ear made Chen Qing's ears uncontrollably go soft.
Xia Qingyue clearly understood the meaning in Chen Qing's words and couldn't help but recall her earlier behavior. Her already rosy cheeks flushed even deeper, to the point of dripping blood.
She weakly defended herself, "I, I just wanted to thank Husband so much for all your help and support. Bearing children for Husband early is simply my duty as a wife."
"In that case, it seems I misunderstood my wife. My wife worked so hard to fulfill my dream of becoming a father, yet I judged a gentleman with a villain's heart. I truly deserve to die!" Chen Qing teased.
"Bah, bah, bah, what are you talking about death for, out of nowhere? You're not allowed to die, at least not before me." Xia Qingyue pressed her finger to Chen Qing's lips, stopping him from spouting nonsense.
Now, she could no longer bear the pain of life and death separation from Chen Qing.
Chen Qing grasped Xia Qingyue's wrist, gently moved it away, "Alright, I'll listen to my wife. I won't die, and my wife isn't allowed to die either."
After speaking, he immediately took out several longevity fruits to increase Xia Qingyue's Lifespan while replenishing her lost moisture.
At the same time, Chen Qing opened the System panel, deciding to claim the reward for the main quest.
Although he didn't lack this Great Emperor Cultivation now, having it was always better than not.
The world was vast, and Chen Qing didn't think his enemies were only Heavenly Profound Great Emperor and Ye Feng.
Being prepared for danger in times of peace, increasing strength, and improving one's trump cards was always correct.
[Main quest completed, reward claimed successfully! Great Emperor Cultivation is being issued...]
[Great Emperor Cultivation issued successfully! Host's current Cultivation Realm: Supreme Grand Emperor!]
'Supreme Grand Emperor, then above that, it should be Immortal Ascension, right?'
Chen Qing was unsure.
"..." Seeing Xia Qingyue eat all the longevity fruits in one go, Chen Qing picked up a handkerchief and wiped the corners of her mouth.
"Thank you, Husband." Xia Qingyue smiled sweetly.
[Doting on wife successful! Congratulations to the Host for receiving a random reward: Nine-Rank Pills-patterned Heavenly God Pill +100!]
Thankfully, this System panel was only visible to Chen Qing. If Ye Feng, the protagonist, were to see that Chen Qing could obtain one hundred Ninth-Grade Medicinal Pills, all of them with Pill patterns, just by wiping Xia Qingyue's mouth, wouldn't he be so angry he'd vomit three liters of blood?
"Husband, it's getting late. Let's rest soon." Xia Qingyue was truly worried that Chen Qing would continue what they were doing earlier; it had been too intense, and she had no strength left now.
"Thank you, wife, for sparing my life. My waist truly needs a rest."
"You're annoying, and mischievous~" Xia Qingyue gently pushed Chen Qing's chest, but a smile remained on her lips.
Afterward, the two embraced and slept.
When they woke up again, the red sun was already high in the sky.
Chen Qing opened his eyes, looked down at Xia Qingyue, who was curled up in his arms like a docile rabbit, and smiled slightly.
He truly hadn't expected that he, with the villain's script, could actually win over Xia Qingyue, the female protagonist destined by Heaven.
'As expected, Rebirth is only satisfying with a cheat!'
Chen Qing sighed in his heart.
Speaking of the System, he suddenly noticed the red dot notification in the upper right corner.
If he remembered correctly, he should have already claimed the reward for the main quest last night.
Perplexed, he mentally controlled and opened the System panel.
[Main quest issued, do you wish to view it?]
'Another quest?'
Chen Qing chose to view it.
[Main quest: Have children with Xia Qingyue. Upon completion, you will receive Immortal Emperor Cultivation!]
'Immortal Emperor Cultivation?!'
Through this single word "Immortal," Chen Qing could easily confirm that above the Great Emperor Realm was indeed the Immortal Realm.
And using the reward from the previous main quest as a reference, this Immortal Emperor Cultivation was most likely the Peak existence of the Immortal Realm.
'The Xuanhuan world is truly vast!'
Chen Qing had even more reason to believe that this world was definitely not limited to just one Heavenly Profound Continent.
'I can gain Immortal Emperor Cultivation just by having children...'
Chen Qing was deep in thought.
He teased the System, 'If I have a pair of Dragon and Phoenix twins, won't you have to give me two Immortal Emperor Cultivation rewards?'
[After analysis, the Host's statement is very reasonable. Reward rules have been updated!]
"Uh..." Chen Qing had only said it casually, but to his surprise, the System actually took it seriously.
Well, it wouldn't harm him anyway.
Hearing the movement, Xia Qingyue slowly opened her beautiful autumn-water eyes, gently rubbed her eyes with her small hand, and drowsily said, "Husband?"
"The sun is already high in the sky," Chen Qing replied.
"But I feel so tired, I want to sleep a little longer, just a little bit..." Xia Qingyue's voice grew softer and softer until it completely faded, and she drifted back into dreams.
Seeing this, Chen Qing didn't wake Xia Qingyue, and he also felt that she had worked very hard last night and deserved more rest.
The saying, "Only a bull can be tired to death, not the land it plows," didn't apply to Chen Qing.
He had already discovered another wonderful use of his endless Dantian!
He instantly got out of bed, picked up the clothes that had fallen to the floor, and put them on.
With another instant movement, he appeared outside the house.
"Hmm..." Chen Qing stretched, facing the bright sunlight, and sighed, "It truly is a peaceful time..."
However, this peaceful period did not last long before the tranquility was broken.
