《SUPREME MARTIAL SYSTEM》


 Chapter 1: A DIFFERENT WORLD

    Somewhere in a Public toilet in China, there is a shadow lurking behind it, murmuring to himself.


    "Finally, after saving all my money and spending it on finding my parents who abandoned me since birth, I finally received some useful information on them."


    The Shadow walked out of his lurking as he looked at the sky with a fiery steel will as he looked at the Picture from the files that were given to him by the informant and spoke.


    "Hmmp! thinking of abandoning me just so they can enjoy their time together, what kind of parents are they, now that they are already wealthy they couldn''t even remember how they had a child before!"


    He flipped through to another picture as he frowned and continued: "What''s worse is that... they gave birth to two daughters, giving them all they wanted while I''m here stuck trying to work my way to survival, damn it!"


    Zhong Zhihao is an orphan that was left by their parents since birth due to insufficient living expenses, or in short, Poverty.


    But now when his Parents became rich, he created his own image of them, that they had forgotten about him.


    Tears flowed from his eyes down to his cheeks as he shuddered with sadness and depression.


    "Shouldn''t they at least try to remember that they had a child before? Me? This is really saddening... how did my life become like this..."


    His eyes became fierce as he spoke: "It''s because of them!"


    After spending almost all the money he earned every day for 20 years as a laborer, he finally got some information about his parents. I think you are wondering why this guy, our MC is so determined in knowing his parents and meeting them again.


    He received the news that his Family is living well in one of their top quality resorts in the Philippines, he immediately prepared to go there by a one-way Airplane ticket. He wanted to ask them why did they leave him alone, why didn''t they search for him, did they even remember him?


    Due to Lack of nutrition, his body now is fully developed with almost no fat in it, only pure muscles, luckily, With his physique that developed for 20 years in constructions. he might manage his way to the Airport before he passed out.


    The distance to the Airport in his current location is 21 km which would exhaust almost 99.99% of human beings that will have a try walking that way without having eaten anything the day before.Unauthorized tale usage: if you spot this story on Amazon, report the violation.


    Zhihao readied himself and prepared all the things (which the only thing he has is two pieces of shirts, two underwear, and a single pants) he departed from the Men''s public toilet. and headed in the direction of the Airport.


    Four hours had passed.


    Zhihao had walked through 17 km by now, he can already see the City Airport still some few miles away.


    Zhihao smiled as he increased his phase walking in the bridge, then due to his exhaustion, He suddenly saw two kids playing in front of him, merely by an inch the kids didn''t notice him and kept playing tag, with the exhausted body and mind, Zhihao tried to dodge, but sadly he was too late! he was too weak to move accurately and stumbled on the Bridge''s gutter, Having an exhausted body, Unable to regain his balance, he was like a Drunk Man swaying as he walks toward the edge of the bridge. He tried to get his hands on the guardrail, successfully, Zhihao breathed a sigh of relief, but then a sudden strong wind blew from his back, it felt like someone is pushing him from behind, he tried to hold on but it was a futile struggle as he fell down from the bridge straight down to the river.


    Zhihao only had one question in mind now ''WHY? WHY!? WHYYY!?!?!?!''


    A very rapid water current received Zhihao''s fall, with his weak state, even with his built up physique he wouldn''t be able to handle something this extreme, Zhihao slammed to a lot of sharp rocks beneath the river bed as the current drove him further away, making his skin scratched further as he continuously hit the sharp ends.


    Zhihao lost his will to live, knowing that he is currently facing death, but instead of fear, regret, desperation, or sadness, instead, he smiled as he accepted reality, thinking back to the hardship he had to suffer through all the times.


    ''So this is how I`ll die, why couldn''t I have died in the first place, that would be easier, such a stupid way to die.''


    Zhihao closed his eyes, gritting his teeth as he felt sharp pains striking him hard and accepted the fact that he is going to die, his consciousness faded out of his body, but then he felt a very warm hand caught him from his death, relieving him from any of the pain that he had felt.


    After some time, Zhihao frowned as he realized that he isn''t feeling the pain he had received earlier, he felt that there are no more pain coming from the wounds he received from the River''s sharp rocks in his body, it felt extremely good, but there is this prickling sting coming from his stomach.


    "Urggg!"


    Zhihao grunted from that prickling pain that came from his stomach.


    Zhihao then opened his eyes as he saw a very exquisite ceiling lying on a very soft floor, but he then realized something as he thought.


    ''Ah? soft? floor? no, this is definitely not a floor!''


    Zhihao looked around as he saw a very old looking design of the house, one that came from the old era, his thoughts continued to wonder about.


    ''This is a bed, and that''s not a ceiling it the top of the bed! how extravagant!''


    Zhihao blinked a lot of times but when he remembered how he died he thought that this must be heaven, Zhihao then sat up.


    "Hu! So I guess I''m still a good guy, at least I haven''t harmed anyone while living my life behind the men''s public toilet"


    While thinking like that, he felt that it''s quite strange as how he felt something is very strange in his current state.


    Suddenly, while he is pondering a voice came from outside of the room.


    "Young Master Zhihao, the morning bath has been prepared"


    The voice came from his personal servant girl calling out to him. the girl''s name is Yi Yan.


    Zhong Zhihao became shocked as he thought.


    ''Young Master? when did I became a young master, did my parents found me floating in the river and saved me? Woah! URG!''


    A sharp pain came from the back of his head as all the memories of the ''previous'' Zhihao came into his mind.


    Zhihao opened his eyes as he looked around and looked at his body.


    His thoughts ran wild as he suddenly thought of a single thing to explain everything.


    ''I¡¯M IN A DIFFERENT WORLD?!''

 Chapter 2: A New Life

    Zhihao was shocked as the information kept flooding in his head.


    ''Wow! wow! wow! wow! So there really is such a thing as rebirth after death, I should''ve believed those old monks.''


    He was like a newborn baby with only the past memories from his previous world. luckily the previous owner of his body handed him the memories of this World although its all of the innocent one''s memory, it is very useful to the current him. but as soon as he reviewed this memory he was shocked!


    ''CULTIVATION! STRENGTH! the world where power is the rule and authority is second!''


    While he was shocked by this, a voice awakened his daze.


    "Young master?"


    A voice came outside, as it called Zhihao, It was Yi Yan waiting for him to answer but due to waiting after a long while, she called out again.


    Zhihao finally coming back to reality as he spoke: "AH! Yes, Yi Yan come inside."


    As soon as he finished speaking, Yi Yan came in.


    Yi Yan looked at Zhihao as she bowed her head and spoke: "Young Master, the bath is already prepared, it is already noon and your fiance will be arriving in about an hour or less, we should prepare you in welcoming them here"


    Zhihao became shocked yet again as he tried to search through all the memories of the previous owner and found out that not only is he reborn, he also has a great family, a loving parent, and is currently engaged to a gorgeous fiance.


    Zhihao then looked at Yi Yan awakening from his daze and spoke: "Ahh! Yes yes, let''s prepare, let''s go, uhh, let''s... just bring me to the bathroom."


    Yi Yan giggled as she thought of something


    ''He''s not dead, which means it is effective, but why is there no changes? It only seems that he became a bit out of it, maybe it''s just a delay, and because, he will finally meet his fiance?''


    Yi Yan then looked at Zhihao as she bowed and answered: "Yes young master"


    Zhihao then got out of the bed and went together with Yi Yan to the hall, through the memories of the previous owner of the body, he studied everything that was there to know in his new World, Although he can check all the previous activities of the previous owner but, as an uneducated person in his past life, he didn''t know how to synchronize his own manners and movement to the previous one''s actions, Zhihao in the end just casually learned anything he could right now as he is out of time.


    As soon as he came to the bath


    Zhihao was shocked at the what''s currently happening.


    "WHAAA! What are you doing!? Ah! No, I can do it from here on out, I won''t need your help with taking a Bath in the future."


    Luckily Zhihao had remembered that Yi Yan is always helping him take a bath before, avoiding a very awkward event in happening.


    Yi Yan became shocked as she thought: ''Wasn''t this always the way I helped Young Master in taking a bath, why is he being silly now?'' Enjoying the story? Show your support by reading it on the official site.


    Yi Yan then nodded as she replied: "Young master, isn''t this how I usually help you when you are taking bath?"


    Zhihao became sighed trying to think of a way to escape this current problem.


    ''YES! it was always like that, but I need to make an excuse, why do Young Masters of this World had to be so lazy''


    He became very nervous, wondering if he''ll be caught just by the time he got reincarnated, but all of a sudden, he figured something out.''


    Zhihao smiled at Yi Yan as he replied: "Hmm, yeah. but I wish to take my own bath from now on, I`ll have my wife help me with something like this next time. hee hee, he?"


    Yi Yan shook her head as she rejected, if she immediately goes back, the Patriarch might reprimand her, and she also need to confirm something.


    "Young Master, as you already know, personal maids are already the personal belongings of their Masters. why would I leave you and let your wife do my own duties, and as you already know, your fiance is of Noble Birth just like you and would most likely be your Wife and not your Maid."


    After speaking up to this point, Yi Yan continued helping Zhihao remove his clothes.


    Zhihao immediately shook Yi Yan''s hand as he spoke: "Ahh.. Okay! Okay! I get it now, I wish to thank you for your service, but I want to take a bath on my own, I can take it from here now, I would like to have a bath alone, that is my wish."


    Yi Yan pondered for a bit before she sighed as she shook her head and replied: "Yes, Young Master"


    After replying, Yi Yan immediately went out of the room as she shut the door.


    Zhihao removed his clothes as he stepped inside the Bathud.


    Zhihao immediately thought: ''Ahhh, It is really hard to act like someone that I don''t even know.''


    Zhihao continued to the Bathtub and sunk himself to think about everything that had just happened, After a while, he became dazed as he thought inside of his head.


    ''This life isn''t that bad, no, it is too great, a great reversal for my life, in the past I have a parent, but didn''t care about me and abandoned me, but now, I got a family, a loving one at that, and rich from the start of my life, and now I even got a fiance, this life, I would treasure it, as long as I live and my memories intact, to the previous owner of this body, I promise, I`ll protect everyone that you love, I`m sorry about your fiance, but I`ll take care of her too, rest well wherever you are.''


    After half an hour, Zhihao left the tub and prepared to get out, but as soon as he touched the ground, the door opened as Yi Yan was there staring at him and spoke.


    "Young Master, here is the towel let me help dry you up, and here is your towel to wrap your body with."


    Yi Yan immediately checked Zhihao''s abdomen, her Lips arched to a smile as she nodded and thought: ''Well, it is there, I guess I`ll just have to wait if it is effective or not.''


    Zhihao was shocked, he then tried to calm down as he contained the shock and check the previous owner''s memory, and yes, it''s always been like this.


    Zhihao immediately calmed himself as he replied: "Yes, continue."


    Yi Yan then nodded as she answered: "Yes, Young master" Yi Yan helped Zhihao dry up until getting fully dressed up.


    After a few minutes had gone by, Zhihao is already prepared and well dressed, ready to go. Zhihao walked out of the room as he searched in his memory the way toward the Zhong Clan''s grand hall to meet his father Zhong Ru Feng.


    After a while, Zhihao had finally arrived, seeing a silhouette sitting in a throne-like chair, he smiled as he glanced at his newly found Father, Zhihao almost went to tears, but he kept himself from tearing up, gritting his teeth in the process.


    Entering the Great hall Zhihao walked toward the Direction of his Father and greeted.


    "Father, this Son of yours, Zhihao has arrived, Good afternoon."


    Ru Feng stopped at what he was doing as he looked up with a smile on his face. Seeing how well dressed and prepared his Son is, Ru Feng became extremely glad, his Son is in a very great attire, ready to welcome his fiance, Ru Feng made a happy expression and waved at Zhihao to come closer.


    Zhihao then nodded as he went forward and sat next to his father.


    Ru Feng looked at Zhihao as he asked: "Hao''er, how has your cultivation going on for?"


    Zhihao pondered for a while, checking his memories (Previous one''s) after getting everything, Zhihao immediately replied.


    "Father I have only reached the Final Foundation 3rd stage and would like to try to break through to Foundation Establishment in a while."


    Ru Feng smiled happily at the progress of his son. Zhihao is a genius when it comes to Cultivation, Zhihao even surpassed him when he was also at the same age and will probably surpass him sooner or later.


    Ru Feng then spoke: "That''s great to hear, ahh now I feel really relaxed as to leave the family matters in you and your fiance''s hands in the future."


    Zhihao smiled as he looked at Ru Feng and spoke.


    "Father, I wish for you to live more Years, I won''t be taking over the Clan''s responsibilities away from you any time soon."


    Ru Feng and Zhihao laughed as they chatted for a few more minutes.


    After a while, someone knocked on the door as an attendant outside the door spoke.


    "Patriarch, the honored guests have arrived."


    Ru Feng''s calm face then looked at the attendant as he became overly excited and laughed.


    "Hahahaha! let them in, let them in. don''t let them wait too much outside."


    But just when Ru Feng had finished speaking, a thunderous laughter sounded outside.


    "Hahahaha, Old Dog!"

 Chapter 3: Two Families Meet

    Right after Ru Feng finished speaking, a thunderous voice was heard just outside the door of the Grand Hall.


    "HAHAHAHAHAHA! Old Dog! how long will you keep us waiting outside, this old buddy of yours is still standing here."


    The Ling Clan is the great Clan of the White sky county, a few hundred miles away from Black Wind County where the Zhong Clan is established.


    Zhong Ru Feng and Ling Wentian were old classmates and at the same time both fell in love with the Women of Ruo clan, Zhong Ru Feng married Ruo Mei, while Ling Wentian married Ruo Lin.


    Ru Feng smiled as he spoke: "Old dog, you should behave yourself in front of our younger generation, at least show some slight dignity as the patriarch of the Ling clan."


    After speaking Ru Feng immediately stood up as he walked forward to Ling Wentian.


    Ling Wentian smiled as he walked closer too and replied: "Ahahaha what''s there to hide in front of my future Son-in-law, I don''t need to be cautious around him! where is he? I want to meet him, where is my genius Son-in-law"


    Zhihao immediately knew that this guy is his future Father-in-law as if it is being written all over the conversation already, he then stood up as he clasped his hands together and spoke.


    "Zhihao greets Patriarch Ling"


    Ling Wentian nodded as he smiled and replied: "Hahaha, just call me father from now on as it will be the new title that will be born because of the two of you! hahaha!"


    Ru Feng immediate interrupted.


    "Hmpp! Hao''er, just call him Father-in-law."


    Pausing for a bit, Ru Feng looked at Wentian as he spoke: "Immediately, after arriving you''re already trying to steal my son away from me. you know the word shameless all too well Old Dog. now, where is my daughter-in-law."


    As soon as Ru Feng Finished speaking, an elegant silhouette entered the room, Zhihao became dazed, as this beautiful woman with blue hair, Jade white like skin and mesmerizing eyes appeared in front of him. while having the grace of a well-mannered Princess and as a bonus and also a pretty good figure. This woman would definitely be the anyone would like to be engaged to.


    When Ning''er entered, she stole a glance at Zhihao, then smiled a little as she looked at Ru Feng and greeted.


    "Ning''er greets Zhong Patriarch."


    The greetings of this woman made Zhihao very excited as he can very well tell that this woman is very kind, with an extra of providing grace and elegance through with her greetings, Zhihao, well, he fell in love at first sight.


    Ru Feng smiled as he spoke: "Well, well, a good Daughter indeed, Ning''er you should call me Father from now on, for that, would be the new title you`ll be giving me when you get married to our Hao''er."Reading on Amazon or a pirate site? This novel is from Royal Road. Support the author by reading it there.


    Wentian frowned his brows as he rebuked: "Old Bones, seems like you are stealing my daughter right in front of my nose! as shameless as usual no? how dare you utter words like that in front of me!? see if I don''t fight it out with you today! HMMP!"


    Wentian immediately formed a fist as he charged at Ru Feng.


    Ru Feng also frowned his brows as he clashed fist with Wentian: "You started it old dog! how come you can be shameless and I not? you should go learn back from how an 8 yr old boy should show his manners."


    Their fist clashed as a powerful boom shocked the Grand Hall.


    Wentian immediately removed his hands as he hugged Ru Feng, while Ru Feng did the same, it was like their welcoming to each other.


    "HAHAHA. I missed you Old bones."


    Ru Feng also chuckled as he replied: "I miss you too, you greedy Old Dog!"


    After greeting each other, Wentian looked at Zhihao as he continued.


    "Hao''er this child is gonna be your wife, you should hurry up and give me a grandson or two, hahahahaha!"


    When Ning''er heard it she immediately pinched her Father''s side, causing a little pain as she quietly said.


    "Father, you should behave properly in front of others. especially my father-in-law."


    Wentian smiled as he laughed awkwardly then spoke: "hahaha, I''m so sorry Ning''er, I''m so sorry but can you please let go of my skin? It hurts you know, you are already at the Foundation Establishment Realm, now, your pinches actually hurt."


    Although Wentian had said that, he''s actually so glad, his one and only Daughter is progressing more powerful by each passing days.


    Ru Feng laughed heartily seeing the sight in front of him as he spoke: "HAHAHAHA! Well said Ning''er that''s a very good example, teach that Old Guy a lesson!"


    But just right after the commotion, two beautiful figures entered the grand hall with their great figure swaying left and right, both Ru Feng and Wentian became silent as sweat started to covered their backs, they became as quiet as a sleeping cute puppies, then one of the two figures spoke softly.


    "Dear husband, I think you are having too much fun, we can discuss this tonight after we settle this matter, we''ll be sending the both of them out." Ruo Mei looked at Ru Feng in a very calm manner.


    But Ru Feng, on the other hand, became extremely nervous, Wentian tugs his side as he spoke.


    "Serves you right, Old dog, hahaha."


    But just right after saying these words, Wentian felt some intent at his back, Wentian smiled awkwardly as he shut his mouth.


    Ruo Lin smiled so calmly, that if it was a Man''s first time seeing her, he would definitely fell in love.


    Ruo Lin smiled like an angel as she spoke: "Dear husband, the same goes for you."


    Both figures entered and said something that any men would fell in love with, but on the other hand, Ru Feng and Wentian had never been more afraid while they sat on their chairs silently as they both nodded repeatedly.


    Towards their Wife''s word. they felt a slight fluctuation of Spiritual Energy aimed at them together at the same time. right now both Ruo Mei and Ruo Lin were at the Peak stage of Transcendent Mortal realm while Ru Feng and Wentian are both in the Middle stage of Earth Establishment Realm but still, what kind of man would hit their woman? only a beast would do.


    So whenever their wife gets angry, they would sweat a lot out of fear as they would be a punching bag for a whole night!.


    After the commotion had settled Ruo Mei spoke to Zhihao: "Hao''er, bring Ning''er for a stroll around the town. we adults would like to discuss some matters private matters amongst ourselves."


    Ruo Mei handed down an Interspatial Ring to Zhihao so that if they ever had anything they wished to buy there would be no need to worry for lacking any funds, and what Ruo Mei gave Zhihao was his allowance which she had saved for Zhihao to use in the future, and she guessed that that future is today.


    After receiving the ring, Zhihao replied.


    "Yes mother. this child of yours shall go now"


    Ning''er also bid a goodbye to her Mother: "Mother, we''ll be going now."


    Both Ruo Mei and Ruo Lin nodded then smiled at the both of them as they waved them goodbye.


    When Zhihao and Ning''er are gone from their sight, Ru Feng and Wentian sneakily tried to walk away, but then they heard two voices.


    "Where are you going?"


    "Wentian, are you escaping?"


    Both Ruo Mei, and Ruo Lin looked at the both of them in a calm manner.


    Wentian and Ru Feng immediately shook their head as they stretched their arms and body out as they replied.


    "No, we''re just casually stretching ourselves."


    Ruo Mei smiled as she replied.


    "Good, you''ll need it."


    Ruo Lin nodded as the both of them smiled coldly at Ru Feng and Wentian.


    Wentian and Ru Feng smiled awkwardly as they thought.


    ''Hao''er, Ning''er, please come back early.''

 Chapter 4: Supreme Martial System

    As Zhihao accepted the Interspatial Ring there was a sound that came inside his head as a voice of a man followed.


    *Ding!*


    =Host has acquired a rare Treasure ''Gold Interspatial Ring''


    -This item can store things within a space of 40 cubic meters.


    Zhihao became shocked and flustered as he tried to prevent himself from screaming, in his thought, he repeatedly chanted.


    ''I shouldn''t scream! I shouldn''t scream! I shouldn''t scream!''


    After a while, Zhihao finally calmed down as he looked at his mother as he smiled and replied: "Thank you Mother, I should be going now." Zhihao stopped as he looked at his Father and the other two and continued.


    "Father, Father-in-law, and Mother-in-law I`ll see you all later."


    Zhihao bowed as he walked out.


    Wentian and Ru Feng felt a sharp gaze directed to them telling them to just nod and shut the fudges up! the both of them could only sigh as they nodded.


    Seeing their wife focused on Zhihao and Ning''er, the both of them looked at each other as they silently tried to walk out of the Grand Hall.


    Ruo Lin gave a few words before saying goodbye to her Daughter.


    "Ning''er, don''t cause trouble for your fiance, behave like a well-mannered woman."


    Ning''er sighed as she nodded and answered: "Yes Mother,"


    Ning''er stood beside Zhihao as they both walked out of the grand hall.


    Zhihao kept a gentlemanly expression as he goes out with a little-dazed expression, thinking of what he had just seen earlier.


    Ning''er took a peak of Zhihao''s face as she blushed a little and giggled.


    Waking Zhihao from his dazed state, Zhihao gazed at Ning''er and thought: ''what a beautiful lady, is she really my fiance? though my current appearance is that of a drop-dead handsome guy, or what I can say as a ''boy toy'', she is definitely a beauty''


    Looking at Ning''er from head to toe, Zhihao commented in his thought.


    ''Well, A little more chest would be great too.''


    Then suddenly something strange happened as Zhihao looked at Ning''er.


    Ning''er relaxed her expression from a noble lady into a carefree expression and spoke: "Hey! why are you staring at me from my head to toe? Are you scanning me or something?"


    But Zhihao kept staring at her in a daze, but that was not because he was astounded by Ning''er''s beauty, but instead was because of what he is seeing in front of his eyes.


    *Ding!*

    Zhihao became excited as he thought inside his head: ''isn''t this some sort of cheat? then if I have the System, and also cultivation power, would I be stronger than an Average cultivator?''


    Another notification popped up.


    *Ding!*


    =You will be stronger, much stronger than them.


    Hearing the System''s reply, Zhihao smiled as he started to envision some great dreams.


    As Zhihao sunk into his own dreams and fantasy, a lovely voice woke him up from his daze, Zhihao then looked at where it was coming as he saw the one he''s accompanying, it was Ning''er''s voice.


    Ning''er pouted as she stomped her feet on the ground and spoke.


    "HEY!! IM CALLING YOU! What have you been staring at me like that for? It is okay if it is a casual glance, but if you continue that for 10 minutes, it becomes really weird."


    Zhihao laughed and shook his head, isn''t this a completely different change? A 180-degree turn from her previous personality?


    Zhihao smiled as he chuckled and replied: "Ahh I was just too shock due to the sudden changes in your personality, don''t worry." Pausing for a bit, Zhihao then continued.


    "Should I tour you around town or head back?"


    Ning''er seeing Zhihao''s smiled blushed as she looked at Zhihao and nodded, she''s still not buying Zhihao''s explanation, so she just casually ignored it


    "Just tour me around the town, if we go back now, my mom will scold me a lot." She giggled due to Zhihao reply after some thought, He wasn''t bothered that much with her showing her true personality.


    Zhihao nodded as he answered: "Alright, let''s go."


    The duo kept walking in the town, Zhihao strolled her towards the Marketplace, a Restaurant, some park with a good scenery, all sorts of places where the previous owner of his body had liked, after a while, the night is starting to show up as they decided to eat something, walking back towards the Restaurant to have something to eat, they heard some people talking.


    "Hey, there is an auction happening today in the Heavenly Treasure pavilion, and there is a cultivation pill that will help anyone from Foundation Establishment to break into the Elementary Realm lower stage, that''s just great but I think it will be too expensive for us normal people."


    Another one replied: "Of course, if it isn''t expensive why would they sell it in an auction, and it is the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion at that!"


    "Yep, the greatest Auctioning house around our area."


    When Zhihao heard it he looked at Ning''er as he asked: "My fiance, I think I have enough money to purchase that Pill for you, if I remember correctly, you are in the Foundation Establishment Realm peak right? It can help you to directly break through to Elemental Realm lower stage.


    Zhihao scratched his head as he doesn''t know how Ning''er would react. Zhihao sighed as he thought inside his head.


    ''Having a wife, I need to reconsider everything, Maybe it will also help me in the future, since she''ll be my wife, and with her powering up, I have a lesser problem to deal with in the future.''


    Ning''er looked at Zhihao as she replied: "I Actually have my own money, I can just bid at it on my own."


    Zhihao thought for a bit as he replied in a manly manner.


    "It is a Husband''s duty to buy his Wife''s needs, don''t worry about it, although the money didn''t come from my own hard work, everything I own will be shared by the two of us."


    Hearing these words, The tomboyish Ning''er blushed, not knowing what to reply, she just bowed as she nodded her head and replied.


    "Then, I`ll thank you in advance... my soon to be Husband."


    Zhihao smiled as he nodded and walked towards the Heavenly Treasured Pavilion, Ning''er walked together beside Zhihao, now a little closer, with her face still blushing as red as a tomato.


    Ning''er thought that the fiance her Father and Mother had given her is just a good-looking rich kid, but she started to accept her in her heart.


    In this World, the right time for Marriage is when they are 13 or above, that is for rich Clans, while the not so blessed family made it for Young Males to be married at the age of 18 and a female the same as the latter, 13 and above.


    If you have Money, you can marry at the age of 13 and above, but for those that are less blessed by the heavens, they first needed to earn some money to keep a family stable.


    As soon as both of them entered the Heavenly Treasured Pavilion, a notification popped up in his head.


    *Ding!*


    =Host has entered an area with a defensive formation. this formation is weak and is only meant to deal with Nascent Sprite Realm and below.''


    Zhihao pondered and then the thought of ''so it is an anti-theft formation, well it is good if it''s like this.''


    As they went further in, a voice entered their ears, it was from the Clerk standing in the front desk.


    The Clerk smiled as she spoke: "Dear customers, which room would you like to be into? we got the public stand for the auction which costs 10 silvers, and a private lounge that costs 5 gold. we only have 10 spaces left for the private lounge, so Young Master which room would you like to have entry to?"


    Zhihao searched through his memory, he then smiled as he got an idea out of it. he found out that there are 5 spaces where VIP''s can enter at a costly price.


    Zhihao smiled at the clerk as he spoke: "I`d like the VIP Lounge with my wife, it would be too bothersome for people to notice my beautiful while we''re in the auction."


    Hearing Zhihao''s words, Ning''er blushed further as she looked at the ground.


    Zhihao smiled as he handed 50 gold coins to the clerk.


    The Clerk was dumbfounded, such a young youth can afford the VIP Lounge and what''s more shocking, they actually knew there was one! the clerk gave a seductive smile as she received the money from Zhihao, not forgetting to touch his hands a little, knowing that she can live the rest of her life in wealth if she could manage to be at the very least become a mistress ,the clerk didn''t hesitate to approach in a professionally seductive manner.


    Ning''er caught sight of it and checked Zhihao''s reaction, but Zhihao didn''t have any reaction nor felt anything. Ning''er just ignored it and let it pass by.


    ''Are you a very loyal guy or just dense when it comes to these sort of things?''


    Ning''er then looked at the Clerk as she didn''t forget to leave a threatening stare, but out of nowhere, the both of them received a sound transmission, it was from both of their Mothers.


    Ruo Mei and Ruo Lin spoke to Zhihao and Ning''er separately: "We''ve decided that the wedding would be on the day after tomorrow, so be prepared, and as such, enjoy yourselves for today, no need to come back until late night, just don''t get too much trouble with strangers."


    Ning''er & Zhihao both replied to each of their Mother: "Yes Mother/Mom"


    After finishing the conversation with their Mothers, Zhihao told the Clerk to bring them to the room.


    But suddenly a group of people came in as the one leading the group spoke to the Clerk.


    "I`d like to take all the VIP Lounge in your pavilion for this auction, take the money"


    Just after speaking, the man threw a bag full of golds like garbage to the clerk and suddenly walked forward.


    He then stopped as he saw Ning''er, he was bewildered and shocked, this woman is definitely someone that can topple cities and start a war for countries just to get her, although her figure isn''t perfect yet, it would be enough once she grew up.


    He then spoke: "Hey beautiful, you should come with me and leave that boy toy alone, this man can give you wealth and cultivation resources, until we both aged old and die. i`ll even take your boy toy as my servant if you like, this Young Master Shen Rong of the great Shen Clan of the Nether Void County can take care of that, come with me to the VIP lounge. HAHAHAHAHAHA"


    Ning''er frowned not liking what she had just heard, these type of people are what she despised the most.


    "Young master Shen, I think you misunderstood something here, and you can''t really buy all the VIP lounges since we''ve already paid for one. now if you`d please my husband and I need to go to our room, Miss, lead us please."


    The Clerk suddenly thought that getting between them is gonna be bad, so she just silently stood there, nervously seeing things, if she offended one of them, her fate would definitely be one of the ruined. so she decided to speak.


    "Young Masters, Young Miss, I would like to go but I''m too afraid of offending either one of you three, please, I beg for mercy, I need to call our manager to discuss this with you guys" The Clerk immediately returned the bag of golds to Shen Rong as she ran to the back of the room.


    Ning''er frowned again as she looked at Shen Rong and said: "Young Master Shen, I am the Young Miss of the Ling Clan from White Sky County, and this is my husband Young Master Zhong from this Black Wind County."


    Shen Rong hearing Ning''er''s words frowned thinking in himself.


    ''Tsk, just my day, I need to be careful with the both of them, If I am in the Shen Clan''s territory, I can do whatever I want, but...''


    Shen Rong then looked at the Both of them as he replied.


    "Oh so it''s both the Young Miss and Young Master of two great Clans, hahaha, well I`ll leave the both of you guys alone, but I`ll surely visit you both sooner or later... hahaha"


    Zhihao got enraged at what Shen Rong as he spoke.


    "Just be sure to have a lot of balls when you come back, I`ll wait for it."


    Shen Rong gave a snort and walked towards the VIP lounge not waiting for the clerk to return,


    When the Clerk finally returned, she was together with the Manager. the Manager was a fat old man in his late 50''s, he walked towards them as he talked, explaining that he would do everything to fix the situation as he led the both of them to the VIP lounge.

 Chapter 5: The Auction starts

    By the time both Zhihao and Ning''er entered the screen covered room, A sound came from the stage was heard, the auctioneer walked in the center of the stage as an amiable voice was heard coming from him, the old man looked like someone in his late 60''s,


    The old man entered the stage as he spoke: "I know that everyone''s been waiting for hours already, now then, without further delays, we will now start the auction!"


    The old man is the Auctioneer of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, his name is Lu Dong, but everyone calls him Auctioneer Lu. Auctioneer Lu then continued.


    "The first item would be from a guest from another county, its a very good item, I would''ve preferred it to be placed last, but sadly the guest said that he wished for it to be auctioned first, the first item is this pill bottle with Spiritual Energy Cultivation pill, as everyone had heard, this pill can already be called a treasure in this small county of ours, this bottle has 8pieces of pill left, as such the first bidding price would be 10gold with 1gold per increment. now let us begin"


    The people below couldn''t afford it, they shook their head as they looked at the private lounges, and with a boom, the room was suddenly filled with shouts.


    Room # 1: 15gold!


    Room # 2: 16gold!


    Room # 1: 20gold!


    Room # 6: 25gold! ....


    .....


    When Ning''er heard it, she stared at Zhihao, thinking that the Pill is becoming extremely expensive, although she had brought money with her, it wouldn''t be enough as she only had less than 150 gold coins.


    "Hao''er, we can just forget about the Pills, I''m a genius with cultivation, I don''t need such a thing, my Father didn''t give me enough money, we can just have fun watching the auction, maybe we can find a better item to spend our money on, we should just wait for the next items, so ..."


    Within a short minute, Ning''er already spoke about two thousand words, trying to convince Zhihao in passing the bidding.


    Zhihao laughed as he looked at Ning''er in a loving manner and nodded.


    Seeing Zhihao''s nod, Ning''er sighed in relief as she smiled at him and sat closer.


    Zhihao smiled as he shouted.


    "100 GOLD!"


    The people in both public and private lounge got scared witless, the bid was only at 52gold but it suddenly increased by more than a 100%! this is definitely a young master that they can''t afford to offend, as such, they already gave up the thought of bidding, they can''t bid more anyways.


    The author''s tale has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.


    Auctioneer Lu was shocked at first, but returning to reality, he looked at the VIP Lounge as he nodded his head, immediately calming down, his salary for a whole month was only worth 480 silvers, and this Young Master had just splurged a large amount of 100 gold coins instantly, with that he sighed as he continued.


    "Anyone else? going once? going twice?" Waiting for a few seconds, Auctioneer Lu smiled as he continued.


    "DEAL!"


    When Shen Rong heard that, he went into daze as he pondered for a bit, he only has 200 gold coins left from his monthly allowance, and he had just received it from his Father the other day, he knew if he fought a bidding war with that guy, it would definitely be a big mess, especially if he won, he gritted his teeth and readied to bid for the other things.


    Auctioneer Lu hurried up as he let his Assistant pack the pill up and let it be delivered to the VIP Lounge.


    After a while, the Assistant arrived as she handed the Pill to Ning''er and bit her farewell.


    When Ning''er received the pill she looked at Zhihao, since their county is far from Region Lords, and imperial cities they hardly get things like these Pills, most of the times, they can only cultivate properly and absorb the Spiritual Energy from the ground. without any decent Alchemist in their counties, they can''t acquire cultivation pills, only great lands such as Region Lords, and Imperial Kingdoms have at least a grade 9 alchemist and grade 9 weapon craftsman.


    Zhihao smiled at Ning''er as he spoke: "You can keep it now, It is my Betrothal gift to you."


    Hearing Zhihao''s words, Ning''er blushed as she nodded her head, she then went back to a seat near Zhihao as she spoke.


    "Thank you."


    Zhihao glanced at her as he sighed and asked: "Why are you thanking me? It is my duty as your future half to give you comfort, don''t worry about the little details, you should give me a kiss instead, hahaha"


    Ning''er giggled as she looked at Zhihao and scolded : "Although we''re both 14years old you should focus more in cultivation, also top with the thinking that you could get everything with money and charms, you need to put effort into everything even wooing me as your wife, we''ve just met today so I''m expecting some serious wooing especially since I would be your other half to be, now continue with the auction and think things through again. Hmmp!"


    Although Ning''er said that, she knew that he''s only joking, trying to tease him further, she giggled again as she sat next to Zhihao, now a little closer, Ning''er felt warm as sat near Zhihao, if she can''t reject Marriage, she could at least learn what her future husband would be like, although she didn''t know if Zhihao is showing his real personality, she felt an inkling of accepting Zhihao as her husband.


    She wouldn''t even be able to reject anyway, and since 14 is the right age for Marriage, she would be thrown into another Marriage by his Father, and it might be to a very worst Young Master at that.


    Looking at Zhihao, she felt that he''s really not bad, better even, out of all the people she had talked to before, she can only feel that she''s safer with him.


    Zhihao sighed and made an expression of Serendipity, thinking that his past life, He couldn''t even afford a food three times a day, but now he is rich, and will also be having a wife in the next day.


    Zhihao thought ''I`m having a good Wife, at least she''s not some random person that hides her personality.''


    Zhihao looked at Ning''er as he nodded and replied: "Yes, my Lady"


    Zhihao felt that this woman is good wife material, at least to his knowledge, she didn''t hide anything and spoke everything aloud in front of him. Zhihao smiled as he said in his mind.


    ''I`ll treat her to the best of my abilities, protect her from any hard that will come to us, even if it costs my life.''


    The two of them became closer, the kind of feeling that the two of them had known each other for a very long time.


    The Auction continued as Auctioneer Lu spoke.


    "The second item is just a minor item that we found particularly loitering within the forest, we don''t have any uses for it as it has never been verified and with just a single glance we already find it useless for cultivators, but if you use it on a normal person, that person might become a Cultivator, bid for it to have someone close to you become one, although cultivators consider it as garbage, normal mortals can see it as their treasure."


    A random guy suddenly said: "Auctioneer Lu why even bother to auction it then, hahaha its just gonna be a waste of our time with that hurry up"


    Auctioneer Lu sighed as he already expected such a thing to happen, he nodded as he replied.


    "Alright, alright, now this is the item we called it Rotten Wood, there is a tiny bit of Spiritual Energy inside it, though it''s really tiny we all thought that it can at least help a normal person to become a Cultivator with a slim chance."


    Auctioneer Lu waved his hand as his assistant nodded and brought out a rotten looking wood.


    Suddenly in Zhihao''s mind, there was a notification again. and it was different from before as it buzzed two times! one more than from before.


    *Ding! Ding!*


    =Host has discovered a Magic rated treasure ''Sealed State'' Dark willow sacred branch, once it has been unsealed the grade will increase into Epic Rarity. This type of treasure can help a cultivator to improve his cultivation 5 times with half the effort, this type of item can be concocted into a pill to improve its effect into 6 times the cultivation yield with half the effort.

 Chapter 6: Misleading Action

    A Quest has been made.


    Quest Requirements:


    Acquire the treasure and unseal it.


    Being able to help the host is the number of duty of the system, thus informing and giving a quest to host is also to improve the host''s abilities.


    Quest Reward:


    -Quest Points 50


    -Experience points 1,000


    -Newbie Package (Randomly gives some items to host)


    Shop Function in the system will be opened.


    Quest Shop: Sell items in exchange for Quest points


    Quest Points will be opened once the shop is opened.


    Quest Failure :


    -Cultivation will return to the strength of a normal human.


    Zhihao for a very long time became dazed, reading the descriptions that had popped up in front of his eyes.


    ''If I fail, I''ll revert back to being a normal human? Wait! How can a human become a cultivator anyway? Will I be able to strengthen myself again? What kind of system are you! You are just dragging me down to the bottom of a pit!''


    Thinking like that Zhihao became pale, would he needed to buy it and unseal it, even if he has to spend everything he has, a World ruled by the Strong, and you as a Mortal would be a definite death trap, sinking in his thought, Zhihao is suddenly woken up by the noise coming from the Auctioneer.


    "Ok, we should start the auction with this rotten wood, so give it your best to help your normal fellow become a cultivator, or you can use it yourselves, the starting price is 20silvers!"


    Auctioneer Lu tried to describe the items characteristics to draw some attention, but seeing everyone''s reaction, he sighed as he nodded his head and waited for a few more seconds.


    After a few seconds, Auctioneer Lu looked at the crowd anticipating even for a bit that someone would actually bid, but sadly no one offered, since its 20 silvers, its worth is more than for some people''s whole month of salary, almost everyone in the public lounge only has a basic salary of 8 to 10 silvers a month, why should they spend it to buy something that is weak and uncertain to help them or their friends to breakthrough and become a cultivator. a lot of people only came here to see the bidding war of the rich people, just an entertainment for them once a month.


    Auctioneer Lu was about to withdraw the Rotten Wood, but out of nowhere, someone from the Private lounge spoke in a joking manner as he said.


    Room # 1: "Hahaha I`ll just bid I can help a concubine of mine to become a cultivator, maybe I can have a longer ''happy time'' hahaha Auctioneer Lu, 25 silvers!"


    Getting a good idea of what the guy in room #1 is having, a lot of people inside the Private Rooms also smirked as someone replied.


    Room #8: "That fellow Cultivator surely gave me a good idea, since it''s like this I`ll also bid, 101 silvers! "


    Room # 1: "For a concubine, you`ll spend 101 silver? hahaha, I`ll pass with that then, you can have it, fellow Cultivator."


    Room # 2: "Who said you are the only two that''s interested in getting a longer "happy time" I''m in too hahaha, 105 silver"


    Then Zhihao became shocked, he thought inside ''these stupid people will waste such a sacred treasure for their concubines! this is very upsetting!'' then he suddenly shouted: "10GOLD!"


    Everyone looked at the VIP Lounge like looking at a person that has a screw loose in his brain, spending a lot of money to buy a trash like this.


    As everyone wondered, someone from the other VIP lounge also shouted.If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it.


    "15 gold!"


    It was Shen Rong, he snickered as he glanced at the VIP lounge where Zhihao is staying with some thoughts in his head.


    ''Hahaha, it is not like 15 gold coins is a lot of money, well I still got a lot left after buying this, I`ll just throw it to a random maid in my clan, I guess its a kind of...'' while Shen Rong was still thinking, he heard another shout, the shout came from Zhihao!


    "50 GOLD!".


    The smile in Shen Rong face got vanished as he frowned, he looked at Zhihao''s room as he spoke.


    "Hahaha, right, right, it''s Young Master Zhong after all, Having Lady Ning and also considering a cultivation Mistress, I guess you have a lot of energy every night, a Young Master that only knows how to spend a lot of gold, hahaha trying to show off in front of your Lady is good once in a while, but at the very least, you should hide your lust away from your wife, hahaha spending 50 gold coins to get another ''Happy time'' after Miss Ling, I concede defeat in thi....." Yet, before he could finish his words, Shen Rong was interrupted with a voice that came from Zhihao''s room was heard.


    Glaring at Shen Rong, Zhihao rebuked.


    "Stupid brat, if you can''t bid anymore, you should just shut it and let other people bid, stay in that corner of yours and stop talking, you stupid kid. if you don''t even have money to buy something like a trash, then don''t bother other people doing so."


    Zhihao sneered as he glared at Shen Rong, he is in a really bad mood right now, if he can''t get it, everything that the previous owner of his body worked hard for would be gone, and he''ll have to start again.


    Hearing Shen Rong''s words, Ning''er frowned as she looked at Zhihao''s face, If Zhihao isn''t guilty about it, he should just casually brush it off, but Ning''er felt something is there, even though the both of them haven''t spent much time, Ning''er seemed to understand Zhihao better.


    But what happened caused her to ponder for a bit, but there''s this feeling that Zhihao wouldn''t do something as lustful as that.


    Ning''er looked at Zhihao without saying anything, just looking at him, waiting for the action he would take next.


    Shen Rong became enraged, but he has to concede defeat, it''s only a trash why bother spending some gold coins for it, Shen Rong then guessed something random as he thought.


    ''Maybe this Zhong kid is trying to lure me into bidding a lot then concedes defeat. HMMP! I''m not stupid enough to fall for something as childish as that.''


    After a few more seconds, Auctioneer Lu finally regained his calm, this piece of stupid rotten branch got lucky to get a bidding price of 50 gold, it''s really great when young masters are fighting to show off their wealth. Auctioneer Lu smiled as he thought.


    ''Just my lucky day.''


    Auctioneer Lu finally breathe in, as he slowly said: "50 GOLD COINS! anyone else? going once! going twice! DEAL!"


    Auctioneer Lu handed the item to be delivered and checked out by the customer in the VIP lounge as soon as possible.


    All types of commotion started in the public stand.


    "It''s really great to be a Young Master, being able to show off, and waste money like its nothing"


    "You tell me, it''s not like all young Masters are like that, look at the other one, he''s been stoned, not all young Masters are like that."


    "It''s great to be a Young Master, a son of a great clan "


    "If I could marry my daughter to that kind of Young Master I''d be scot free of worry, I don''t even need to work just giving me 50 gold coins would be set for me my whole life!"


    "Old man keep dreaming, with that kind of ugly daughter of yours, I`d wonder if she would even have a husband, hahaha"


    "Hahahaha"


    "Nyahaha"


    "BWAHAHAHA"


    All kinds of laughter were heard that time, as a way for themselves to pass time.


    When the item was brought to Zhihao, he opened the box as he received another notification.


    *Ding!*


    =Notification


    Quest Completion 50%!


    Next step:


    -to unseal this treasure, the host needs to give 10 drops of blood for it to regrow itself in complete form.


    After hearing this Zhihao directly drew a dagger out of his Interspatial Ring preparing to poke a wound in his finger. but there was a voice that called him preventing him from doing what he was going to do.


    Ning''er stared at him as she held Zhihao''s hand which is holding a dagger, in a very concerned and panicked manner.


    "What are you doing? Are you thinking of committing suicide? Are you feeling guilty towards what that Shen family brat had said? What he said, is that real? you should reconsider this! I`ll hear your explanation, if it is acceptable, maybe I`ll agree, so don''t you think of making me a widow before I even get married!"


    After hearing Ning''er dramatic flare, Zhihao laughed out loud as he spoke.


    "HAHAHAHAHA, I seriously struck rich with this wife of mine."


    Ning''er frowned as she looked at Zhihao in a bewildered manner.


    Zhihao chuckled as he looked at Ning''er and continued: "I''m not really thinking of suicide, it is just that I need to rejuvenate this fella."


    Zhihao pointed at the box with the Dark Willow branch as he continued.


    "This here, is no trash, I could use it to cultivate, This is a big treasure, one that can help the both of us in cultivating, it is not a junk, after I make a pill out of this, the pill can help us cultivate 5 times or even 6 times faster with half the effort, do you finally understand it?"


    Hearing what Zhihao had said, Ning''er immediately blushed, she glaringly looked at Zhihao and spoke: "If that''s what you would do, you should''ve at least told me first! Urg! Misleading people so much, you sure have a lot of free time!"


    After pondering for a bit, Ning''er added.


    "You should keep it for now, and try doing it later, this place is too open, so hold on for until we return to the Zhong Clan estate, maybe there are more things like that. such good fortune even my entire clan would definitely not be able to afford it, such a lucky fellow you are."


    Ning''er although didn''t show it, is actually very happy right now, she thought that Zhihao had bought it for another female, she smiled as she felt reassured, for now.


    Zhihao finally had his turn to laugh softly as he spoke: "Aren''t you my wife? I''m sharing this with you, so no need to feel envy towards it, what''s mine is yours and what''s yours is mine, right? it''s like my body is yours to use while your body is mine to use too"


    Ning''er felt speechless, unable to rebuke what he had said since everything is true once the both of them get married, she just sighed as she sat beside Zhihao continuing to watch the Auction.


    Ning''er looked at Zhihao as she thought "I`ll get my revenge sooner or later"


    Then after speaking, Ning''er placed her hands on her undeveloped chest as she pouted and looked at the other way.

 Chapter 7: Yin and Yang Willow Pill

    Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, Inside the auction house.


    Zhihao waited for the next items to be Auction, but to his disappointment, there were no other good treasures to be Auctioned.


    After the Dark Willow Sacred branch was bought from the auction, no more good things were revealed by the following items, as such, both Zhihao and Ning''er finally left the Heavenly Treasured Pavilion together,


    After stepping just right outside the Auction hall, a man in a calm manner is leading a group of old people as they blocked Zhihao''s and Ning''er''s path.


    Yes, it is the Young Master of the Shen Clan, Shen Rong.


    With a harrumph, Shen Rong looked at Zhihao with contempt as he spoke: "Young Master Zhong, it''s nice to see you again, its kind of like a fa..." yet again, Shen Rong was cut in the middle of his long speech by Zhihao.


    Zhihao smirked as he intervened: "First of all Young Master Shen, if you waited for the both of us and blocked our path, it is not a coincidence nor is it fate, it is but your persistence and second, seeing your face again is not something that I could say as something that is ''NICE''."


    Shen Rong got enraged, but he calmed down in an instant, as he spoke: "Young master Zhong, with that tone of yours, people would think that we have a blood enmity bet..." sadly the poor Young Master Shen got cut out again before he could even finish.


    Yes, This time, it is Zhihao''s wife, Ning''er.


    "Young Master Shen, if my husband wouldn''t be mad at you, then I would not even dare marry such a man, but he is, first of all, for taking a chance at wooing me in front of my husband, you had already crossed the line."


    Pausing for a bit, Ning''er added: "Second is you talked bad about him in front of me, his Wife, that would be too degrading of my husband if he didn''t bore any ill intentions towards you, don''t you think? I, as such, think it''s time for our paths to end here since there is really no benefits to us continuing our talk." Ning''er with a hmmped looked at Shen Rong in disdain.


    After saying everything that needs to be said Ning''er pulled Zhihao by the sleeves as she drags him away.


    Zhihao glanced at Shen Rong in a provoking manner as he smirked before leaving him standing with his group.


    Seeing the mocking face that Zhihao had shown him, Shen Rong was enraged, he wanted to take action but this is the territory of the Zhong clan, what''s worst is that the Zhong clan is stronger than the Shen clan by a bit, and with the help of Ling clan, the Shen clan would definitely be destroyed because of his foolishness if he ever have any conflict with Zhihao. although he is already in the Elementary Realm lower stage, he is surely not stupid enough to fight the Son and Daughter of two Earth Establishment realm cultivators, The Zhong, Ling, and Sheng Clan all three of this Clan only have one Earth Establishment realm cultivator what''s worst is that the Zhong and Ling clan has higher cultivation level than their Shen clans'', Lower stage of Earth Establishment Realm, Shen Ming.


    The Zhong, Ling, and Shen Family actually have a good friendship between them, as Shen Ming, Zhong Ru Feng, and Ling Wentian were all good friends within the same academy.


    Shen Rong snorted and said to his followers: "Let''s go, I cant add more humiliation to this day, I need revenge but as the old saying goes, ten years is a little time for a gentleman''s revenge" he grinned as he envisions himself stepping on Zhihao''s face when he became the second Earth establishment realm of the Shen clan, but as soon as he started daydreaming, The follower besides him spoke.


    "Young Master isn''t it ''When a nobleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late; one should bide one''s time and wait for the right opportunity to seek vengeance'' the right saying?"


    Shen Rong got enraged as he punched the follower and madly walked out and exited the town.


    ...


    Zhong Clan family estate.


    Ning''er and Zhihao returned to the clan and concoct a pill, but suddenly Zhihao got tightly pulled by Ning''er that he slammed to the floor outside the Zhong Clan family estate entrance gate. Zhihao didn''t know what he did, to deserve for his face to be slammed in the floor by his fiance isn''t that too sad, he can only cry tears inside with that.


    The Guards wanted to laugh, but as soon as they noticed that Zhihao was looking at them, they quieted down and contained their inner demons to laugh, their lives are important than a minute of entertainment.This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience.


    After standing up, Zhihao asked Ning''er: "Why?"


    He tried to calm himself up as he stared at Ning''er.


    A little bewildered of what Ning''er did that for, Zhihao knew that she wouldn''t do that without any reason, so he thought she might have a valid reason.


    Zhihao looked at Ning''er, with the specks of dirt still in his face and clothes he still tried to act nobly.


    The Guards made a ''PUH!'' sound as they struggled to not open their mouths to prevent it from laughing out loud and getting fired from their work, but right at this moment, a laughter as loud as a blown horn sounded.


    "HAHAHAHA HAHAHA HA HAHAHAHAHA" it was none other than the one and only wife, Ling Ning''er, the instigator.


    Zhihao looked at her, waiting for her to stop.


    "Ahh, ahh, wait, wait, lets come inside let me wash your face first, HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"


    Zhihao immediately walked to his courtyard and strode as fast as he can, to avoid any other clan members to see him, while Ning''er the one that promoted the scene was still holding her stomach and laughing, although she is laughing, she still held Zhihao''s arms, like someone supporting an injured person.


    Guard #1: "Luckily the lady is still there if we laughed while the young miss is gone, we''re really doomed."


    Guard #2: "Don''t even mention it and forget it, it would be better to keep our lives for all I care."


    ...


    Inside Zhihao''s courtyard, Yi Yan walked in with a bucket of water, bringing it to the Young Miss. after handing the bucket of water to Ning''er, Ning''er spoke:


    "you are Dismissed"


    Yi Yan nodded then walked backward and replied "Yes Young miss."


    After noticing Yi Yan is gone, she laughed softly while holding her stomach wanting to keep it as low as possible "Pfft, huhu, hu, hihi hi",


    Zhihao after growing tired of it, spoke: "So... When will you get over it? it was you in the first place that did it, if you kept laughing like that, I ''m going to get mad at you." but before he finishes, laughter was still roaring inside his courtyard.


    After 30mins more, Ning''er finally calmed down.


    Then Zhihao asked: "Done?"


    Ning''er finally calmed down as she fixed her posture and slowly spoke "Yes dear Husband, I''m done"


    Zhihao nodded and asked: "Ok so, why''d you pull me to the ground?"


    Ning''er remembered what she wanted to know and asked: "Are you an Alchemist? how come you can concoct a pill?"


    Zhihao pondered for a bit, then realized it himself, then he thought.


    ''How would I even concoct a pill? I don''t even know how to cook an egg, I only know how to boil water for my instant noodles, but earlier I claimed to concoct some pills? what the...''


    After pondering for a while Zhihao then he remembered something and asked: ''System, how would i concoct a pill if I''m not even an alchemist, what should I do?''


    *Ding!*


    =Responding to host, we have an Alchemist Automated cauldron that can help you concoct pills automatically, you just need to be beside the cauldron for it to continue concocting the pill.


    Zhihao was enlightened, as he smiled then looked at Ning''er and said, "I am an alchemist don''t worry, as I will concoct our future pills."


    Ning''er replied: "Okay" as she rolled her eyes. then she continued.


    "Stop with your bravado, and why don''t you start then?"


    The Zhihao contacted the system the system again ''System, I`m ready, let''s do this!''


    *Ding!*


    =Host, are you sure you want to concoct the ''sealed'' Dark willow sacred branch?


    Zhihao was dazed, then he facepalmed and slap himself in the face. after the idiotic display Zhihao immediately withdrew the dagger and poked his finger. 10 drops of blood flowed into the Dark Willow Sacred Branch, then, a sudden change happened to the dead looking willow, as half of the black part turned into white, making it look like a white branch burned by a half. then immediately the system notified.

    *Ding*


    =Host needs the following to concoct the pill


    -Dark willow sacred branch


    -Ashed lotus stem


    -Iced Lotus flower

    Zhihao checked his interspatial ring and found that there is Ashed lotus stem and Iced lotus flower inside, but Zhihao has one missing ingredient, he asked as he remembered the shop in the system, ''System, do you have any dire Cold Vine in the shop?''


    *Ding*


    = 5 points need are needed to purchase the Dire Cold Vine. Continue?


    Zhihao immediately nodded and confirmed, then immediately said to the system ''Start the alchemist system''


    After a few seconds, a big cauldron appeared in front of Zhihao,


    Ning''er was shocked as this cauldron looked totally badass! so her husband really is an alchemist, Ning''er pondered for a while, thinking that ''if Zhihao fully focused on cultivation, he would''ve had already been in the Elementary Realm, or higher!''


    Ning''er looked at Zhihao with confusion and amazement, before silently staring at him.


    Zhihao placed all the ingredients inside the cauldron, then after closing the lid it automatically produced golden flames beneath the cauldron as it started concocting the pills.


    After 15 mins, the cauldron automatically stopped shaking and the flame vanished. the lid automatically popped out, and smoke came out.

    -Hidden special usage available on this item.


    Zhihao became excited, this is the first pill he ever made and it will definitely help him in a long run. ''he is now dreaming of the vast continent of Gailea under his foot as he strides the heaven and all being benea...'' His daydreaming immediately stopped as Ning''er woke him up from his daze


    Ning''er pinched him as she asked: "Husband, are you done?"


    Zhihao nodded as he took the pills out of the Cauldron.


    Zhihao was dumbfounded and he sighed, he laughed softly as he spoke: "I`ll take three black and two white, you take the rest" Zhihao sighed inside as he blew a heavy air out of his lungs, then he thought.


    ''Having a life is a great benefit to life, I just wish that my life continues like this, forever.''


    Ning''er suddenly exclaimed: "AH! this white pill is hot! while the red one is cold!, what kind of pill


    are these, Husband?"


    Zhihao chuckled as he replied: "It is something way better than the one we purchased in the Auction house, try it now."


    Ning''er nodded as she swallowed the white pill, she immediately felt that a cold Spiritual Energy is coursing through her veins, She was astounded at the amount of Spiritual Energy she can gather now is more than four times it was than before.


    Ning''er remembered something as she spoke: "Husband, if you can concoct a pill, why not auction some low-grade ones, I think we can have a lot of money for our future expenditures."


    Zhihao laughed a little, as he said: "Dear wife is right, how can we take care of our child if I, the Father has no money, I`ll try it later Ning''er my wife"


    Ning''er blushed a little and calmed herself down as she spoke: "Zhihao, you should control your teasing by a lot! I`ll tell you on your Mother, I`m sure she could help me extract my revenge. Hmmmp!"


    Ning''er giggled as she pulled out an interspatial ring hidden inside her waistband and hid the rest of the pills inside.


    Zhihao became awed, "Oh! You also have an Interspatial Ring?"


    Zhihao laughed at the sight of his Wife.


    Ning''er replied: "Yep, I`m also the Daughter of a proud Clan, of course, I have one, you are not the only here that have an influential Family."


    After saying those, Ning''er giggled and glanced at Zhihao one more time before bidding her farewell.


    "Husband, I`ll go and return to my Family now."


    After speaking, Zhihao glanced at the vanishing figure of Ning''er as she smiled.Unauthorized usage: this tale is on Amazon without the author''s consent. Report any sightings.


    Zhihao sighed as he thought


    ''Why are women always so complicated, are they born to be complicated? even in my previous World, they are like this, so much brain cells are dying just to figure their intentions out... woo.''


    As he finished sighing, he emptied his mind and consumed the Black pill and focused on cultivating it.

    *Ding!*


    =Host can open inventory by thinking ''INVENTORY'', it will immediately appear in front of the host.

 Chapter 9: Wedding Day

    Zhihao remembered something as he went outside to check on Yi Yan, then called out


    "Yi Yan, I''m going to cultivate for one day, don''t bother me for that time, don''t bring me any meals, and stop preparing for the bath, if it''s nothing important, do not disturb me" as Zhihao said this, he immediately went inside.


    Yi Yan nodded as she replied: "Yes, Young Master."


    Yi Yan then walked out of Zhihao''s courtyard as he went to the Patriarch as she told him what Zhihao had ordered.


    Ru Feng felt pleased yet again, his Son is going to be married the day after tomorrow, but still choose to cultivate.


    Ru Feng smiled as he ordered: "Haha, the younger generation will surely surpass the old ones indeed."


    Pausing for a bit, Ru Feng smiled as he became glad at how passionate his son is towards cultivation, he then continued.


    "Pass my orders, no one is allowed to go 5 meters close to Hao''er for a day, and notify me once he finished cultivation."


    Yi Yan and the other servants immediately answered: "Yes, Patriarch"


    ...


    Zhong Clan''s Guest Estate.


    Ning''er entered the guest estate of the Zhong Clan where her family is staying and went to her Father and Mother''s resting room. after seeing them, she smiled gracefully and spoke


    "Mother, Father, this Daughter of yours is back."


    Ruo Lin and Wentian nodded as they both smiled at Ning''er.


    Ruo Lin spoke: "How is he? Did you enjoy the tour of your Husband in the town?"


    Wentian only smiled as this is a Mother-Daughter thingy that he isn''t good at.


    Ning''er replied like she had been to somewhere like a paradise: " Mother, this husband that you found for me isn''t bad, he has a good nature, and a very caring personality, he even bought me a pill cultivation bottle, and even concocted me some pills that give 6 times the yield but half the effort, this type of pill I was wondering if it is rare? please enlighten me, Father"


    As Ning''er spoke, she lifted her head and looked at her Father and Mother, she was bewildered by what she had seen, she noticed that her Father also wants to ask but is too afraid of her Mother''s nagging, so she initiated it herself.


    But to Ning''er''s surprise, both his Father and Mother are getting cold sweats.


    Wentian shakily asked Ning''er.


    "Ning''er, do you want to know? that kind of single pill, ca.. ca... ca... can"


    Seeing her Husband''s panic, Ruo Lin tapped at his shoulder, then smiled beautifully.


    Wentian smiled as he sighed and calmed down. then he continued: "Can help you achieve cultivation higher than mine in a span of a year, and the value of that pill... if you both include Zhong clan and our Ling clan''s wealth, we can''t even afford a quarter of it. That kind of pill comes from the legend, the only existing ones even in the Imperial capital are only able to help a cultivator 4 times the yield, with half the effort. For little Zhihao to gift you a single pill like that is a fortune to..." But before finishing, Wentian saw his daughter pulled out 5 pieces of pill 2 black and 3 white ones.


    Wentian staggered, as he shockingly asked: "da... da... Daughter.... is that? That, you know that pill? The one you''re talking about?"


    Wentian couldn''t even describe how he is feeling right now, a single pill that could cause wars between many nations, a single one can make good friends, alliance, even family fight over it, he can only dream of such a pill, but now, witnessing his Daughter, holding five of them, he was left speechless.


    Ning''er smiled as she sighed and spoke: "Father, I think I need to return this pills to Zhihao, it is too valuable to gift one to me, he even gave me 5 of them."


    Wentian smiled as he looked at his Wife, Ruo Lin and nodded, he then continued.


    "Go on daughter, it is good having a Daughter like you, Your Mother and I take pride in you."


    Ning''er nodded and spoke: "Yes Father, I`ll be going now."


    ...


    Ning''er walked to Zhihao''s courtyard, she then was blocked by someone, it is Yi Yan


    Ning''er looked at Yi Yan as she spoke: "I''d like to talk to my husband, why are you blocking my way?"


    Yi Yan smiled as she bowed and replied: "Replying to Young Miss, Young Master started cultivating a few hours ago and reminded us that he would be cultivating for a day, the Patriarch had commanded us that no one is to disturb the Young Master as he cultivates his realm, but Young Miss, you are the wife of Young Master I''d advise you go to the Patriarch so you could discuss it first before going to Young Master."Love what you''re reading? Discover and support the author on the platform they originally published on.


    Ning''er smiled and as she replied: "Ok, thank you, I''ll be going now, please continue your work."


    Ning''er paused then she looked back at Yi Yan then continued: "Thanks for informing me" after speaking, Ning''er immediately walked towards the great hall.


    Yi Yan smiled as she bowed and replied: "It is my duty Young Miss, Don''t worry about it."


    Ning''er went to see the Patriarch in the Zhong Clan''s great hall, and as expected Ru Feng is there reviewing some scrolls from the Zhong clan''s finances and affairs.


    Ning''er bowed towards Ru Feng as she greeted: "Patriarch, Ning''er greets and wishes to talk to you about something"


    Ru Feng stopped what he is doing as he looked at Ning''er and smiled.


    "Go on Ning''er, no need to be polite, you can just call me Father."


    Ning''er blushed as she smiled then nodded: "Yes Father, this Daughter of yours wishes to return something that was given to me by Zhihao, its a valuable cultivation pill for cultivators that even with all of the Ling clan''s wealth was spent it wouldn''t be enough to buy something of similar quality."


    Ru Feng was shocked for a moment, but after a while, he regained his calm as he pondered for a bit


    Ru Feng smiled again as he looked at Ning''er and thought. ''The fortune of my Son is definitely good, This Lady is definitely good.''


    Ru Feng then spoke: "Little Ning''er, you should use that already, if I know my own Son after he gave you something, he wouldn''t take it back, even if he dies. So you should cultivate now and focus on it or you can also prepare for your wedding with our Hao''er, it will happen the day after tomorrow, you`d need to rest yourself up."


    Ning''er hesitated for a bit before nodding and replied: "Then I will be going now, Father, thank you for your time"


    Ru Feng laughed heartily and nodded as he spoke:"Hahaha, go on, do your business, your wedding is getting closer, and it would be best if you prepare yourself for now. hohoho"


    Ning''er blushed and nodded before bidding her farewell: "Goodnight, Father"


    After speaking, Ning''er bowed and walked out of the Grand hall returning to the Guest room.


    Ru Feng smiled as he nodded and got back with the scrolls.


    ...


    Zhihao''s Courtyard


    A Day has passed rather quickly in the system meditation mode, Zhihao felt like he had just blinked, and then 24 hours had already passed, isn''t that like doing nothing but benefiting a lot? as Zhihao opened his eyes as he suddenly heard a notification.


    "Ding!"


    - Level up!


    - Cultivation up!

    Other powers: None existent


    Zhihao checked his stats and was amazed, in a blink of his eye, he already became much stronger than before! Then he smelled something, it stinks! he then checked himself, he was full of sweat and dust, Zhihao smiled as he realized that it''s been a whole day and he hasn''t taken a bath for a full day adding to the fact that he bathed early morning yesterday, that''s 39hrs in total! he called Yi Yan and ordered to prepare the bath for him.


    After a few minutes, Yi Yan called to tell him that the bath is already prepared.


    Zhihao took a bath and changed to some new fresh clothes, its already 11 PM and he needs to sleep because tomorrow is his wedding day, after laying in the bed for a few minutes, he fell asleep.


    ...


    Waking up, Zhihao stretched his arm wide, then looked outside, Yi Yan is there with a couple of new faces, they are gonna prepare him for the wedding, he took a bath, and was helped to be dressed by the clan''s Maids.


    Zhihao sets out from his Courtyard and went to the grand hall to visit his old man.


    Arriving, Zhihao saw 2 men and 2 women, he then proceeded to greet the four of them: "Father, Mother, second Mother, and second Father, Zhihao greets the three.


    Zhihao bowed slightly as he walked towards them. after a few minutes, Ling Ning''er also arrived.


    Ning''er wore a very lovely white wedding dress with a little bluish colors mixed in them, making the dress suitable for her as her lovely light blue hair and mesmerizing blue eyes that can even the hottest stones turn cold, her slender figure, and jade white skin added to the glamour of Ning''er''s beauty.


    Zhihao was mesmerized at the sight in front of him, this beautiful fairy is gonna be his Wife after today.


    Pausing for a bit, Zhihao asked the System again.


    ''System, I need a gifting box, elegant, and presentable, a chest that can be bought by the points I have left.''


    "Ding!"


    =Host can purchase ''Jade preserving chest'' the size is 8x4 inches, it has the effect of preserving anything that is inside for 100 years without deteriorating.


    Needed quest points: 20


    =proceed to purchase?


    Zhihao immediately confirmed, then added, ''Put all the remaining stones inside''


    Hearing Zhihao''s request, the system immediately replied.


    *Ding!*


    =Order has been completed.

 Chapter 10: The First Night Together

    *Ding!*


    =With the passion of the host, a bonus has been made depending on the circumstances, Yin and Yang willow pill has been appraised and revealed its hidden features are revealed.


    -Yin and Yang willow pill


    Has the effect of multiplying the cultivation by 6 times within 3 months the higher the cultivation, the lesser its effects.


    Hidden Features:


    -Dual cultivation will increase the effects of the pill by two times, giving 12 times the effect but shortening the duration into 1 month.


    Zhihao''s mouth opened without caring for the surrounding.


    Seeing this, Ning''er blushed as she misunderstood Zhihao''s act as she smiled a little.


    Ning''er hesitated a bit but still spoke: "Husband close your mouth, or flies will enter it" she giggled a bit with still red cheeks.


    Everyone in the hall laughed as they understood what Ning''er had said, and it definitely looked like it too.


    Zhihao''s mouth closed, as he smirked, coming back to reality every once in a while after daydream became his norm after reincarnation.


    Zhihao then spoke, "Wife, come and stand by my side."


    Hearing his word, Ning''er blushed as she went gracefully like a fairy descending from the heavens. A lot of people came as they congratulated Zhong and Ling Patriarchs, and their wife.


    The Monk that is in charge of the wedding shouted.


    "Let us proceed to the Altar!"


    All of them marched to the altar as Ning''er and Zhihao took the lead, followed by Ru Feng, Wentian, Ruo Lin, and Ruo Mei.


    Arriving at the Altar, the monk did the ceremonies as Zhihao and Ning''er made the vow.


    After the ceremony was held, all people Celebrated by eating and drinking and chatting with each other. Being the husband, Zhihao Toasted with all the people that approached him, around 450 people, and not even forgetting to introduce their most beautiful daughter.


    While Ning''er already left and immediately headed to Zhihao''s chamber, Zhihao was left to attend the guests.


    Zhihao kept greeting the guests by groups, bringing him their congratulations as they placed their gifts at the table near Zhihao''s location.


    Then suddenly a man approached, Zhihao looked at him as he somewhat feels like he had seen the man before.


    Zhihao then saw Shen Rong behind him as he smiled, he immediately figured out that the man leading Shen Rong is his Father, they do look alike after all.


    The man''s name is Shen Ming, Patriarch of the Shen Clan in the neighboring county, together with him are two youngsters, one male, and one female, the male one is Shen Rong, and the other one is Shen Xiao, Shen Ming''s Eldest Daughter.


    Shen Ming laughed as he congratulated Zhihao.


    "Hahaha Zhihao, you''ve grown big, I still remember carrying you in my shoulders when you are still two years old. This is my daughter, Xiao, and next to her is Rong, I think you two both knew each other, I apologize in his stead as I`ve been too busy with the clan that I couldn''t teach him proper manners."


    Zhihao laughed as he thought.


    "This man didn''t do anything, but still chooses to apologize for his son''s mistake."


    With that thought, Zhihao immediately removed any ill will as he saw the Sincerity in his eyes and action, He''s a good man, and didn''t even do anything, so why would Zhihao need to bore hatred out of nothing. its'' his son''s fault not his, This man definitely is a Man that honors his words.


    Zhihao casually replied: "We of younger generation tends to show off as we have that much stamina to waste and are being too willful, I have already forgotten it, if Patriarch Shen didn''t even say it, I would''ve forgotten about it already. hahaha."


    Shen Ming laughed as he exclaimed: "Good, good, like Father like Son indeed, back in my days, your Father has a lot of enemies, we three stood together, and bullied everyone in our way to cultivation. Rong, haven''t you heard him already, what are you standing there for!"If you come across this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.


    Shen Rong glanced at Zhihao as he said: "Sorry"


    Shen Ming immediately smacked his head and then continued: "What kind of attitude are you showing here, I`d disowned you if I only had one more son! the heavens have forsaken me, giving me genius daughters, but threw me an idiotic son!."


    Shen Rong wanted to cry, this is a celebration so definitely a lot of people here. he got embarrassed as he quickly said.


    "Zhihao, the matter about the past, I sincerely apologize for not handling it well,"


    Zhihao just accepted it and nodded for a bit, he is a little bit drunk after a lot of guests had a toast with him, Zhihao can only concentrate for about 60% right now.


    Shen Ming immediately asked Zhihao.


    "Little Hao, whats your current cultivation realm now? you are already fourteen years old. I''m a little curious.


    Zhihao smiled and nodded before answering, "I`m at the Elementary Realm Pinnacle stage, I just broke through yesterday." Zhihao smiled and looked at them, but he found that everyone in the hall including his Father, Mother, and In-laws are looking at him with a strange expression.


    Their son two days ago was only at Foundation pinnacle stage, but two days after he''s in Elementary Realm Pinnacle stage! what kind of drunk talk is that, but the question only lasted for a few seconds before Zhihao did something.


    WooOOSH!


    Zhihao used the Elementary Realm Pinnacle stage Spiritual energy to disperse the alcohol in his body and smiled at them.


    Shen Ming was astonished as his son is already 19years old and only at the Early stage of Elementary Realm, what kind of dream is this, a 14 years old youth in the Elementary Realm and whats more, the Pinnacle stage!


    Shen Rong immediately shivered, this kind of cultivation can''t be explained by the current cultivators gathered together.


    Zhihao smiled as he broke the silence and said: "hahaha, let''s continue the celebration now, its good to have a celebration like this once in a while." Zhihao jokingly said.


    Then his Father Zhong Ru Feng and his in-law Ling Wentian approached him, they both said at the same time: "GOOD BOY! you know how to surprise me indeed!" they both looked at each other and laughed, both of them patted Zhihao''s shoulders.


    After a while of chatting, the both of them looked at Shen Ming and spoke.


    "Brother, it''s been a long time, we should drink ourselves drunk today."


    Shen Ming nodded as he walked away with Ru Feng and Wentian, then Shen Ming looked behind as he followed up.


    "Shen Rong come with me, Xiao''er, accompany little Zhihao for a bit. we men need to talk about something. Hahaha"


    Shen Xiao who got what her Father said blushed for a bit. then looked at Zhihao. Zhihao, who is dense enough that he didn''t get anything at all.


    Zhihao smiled at Shen Xiao as he said "Accompanying me will be hectic hahaha, a lot of people will come and have a toast with me"


    Xiao smiled as she replied: "Its ok, I''m used to it, Father is a bit of a drunkard and always throws celebration every few months."


    Zhihao smiled and said: "Hahaha good then, let us go"


    After a few moments of walking, he waited for other people to approach him, but to his surprise, no one approached him, only leaving their congratulatory gifts at the table.


    Shen Rong yelled that Xiao''er is to accompany Zhihao. The people already knew what it means. and that is to stay away from Zhihao and let the two have some conversation amongst themselves.


    Zhihao accompanied and talked with Xiao for a while until evening approached when it had already turned dark, two figures appeared.


    It was Shen Ming and Shen Rong.


    Shen Ming spoke: "Xiao''er, I think you had enough time, we should go home now, your Mother might be worried." Shen Ming paused and laughed as he looked at Zhihao then continued.


    "Hahaha let Zhihao do his things, Zhihao, I`ll bid you farewell, for now, hope we can meet again. oh and Xiao''er will also be attending Celestial Palace academy when she turns 15, take good care of her by that time HAHAHAHAHA"


    Shen Ming took Shen Xiao as they parted with Zhihao.


    Zhihao pondered a little then returned to the celebration, but someone blocked him, a tall figure and two of them at that! it was evening and lights are against the two that Zhihao can only see their silhouettes.


    Then one of them said.


    "Zhihao, do your duties to your Wife now, we`ll handle the rest". yes, it is Zhong Ru Feng and Ling Wentian.


    Zhihao smiled and nodded, though he didn''t know what duties they were talking about, yet he still returned to the chamber anyway.


    When he came in, he saw that there is only one bed, and in there he saw Ning''er motionlessly lying in the bed, then as a dense person, Zhihao came to the bed, and laid to the other side of the bed. He then laid there as he silently fell asleep.


    Ning''er who was anxiously waiting for his husband to move, waited... yes ... w.a.i.t.e.d. 10mins has passed she can hear small crumbling in the bed within Zhihao''s side, Ning''er fell nervous again, as her face was covered in red, from her face down to her upper chest it was all red. thinking that Zhihao was taking his clothes off, she nervously waited.


    5minutes...


    30minutes...


    1hour...


    ...


    Somewhere outside Zhihao''s chamber.


    Outside of a few hundred meters out, both Zhong Ru Feng is guarding to prevent anyone from intervening, but there is another motive for it, they wanna hear if it has started... If it hears it they would leave immediately and set up a defensive formation. When they heard a rustle of clothes they thought that, it is beginning. They waited and prepared to leave.


    5minutes...


    30minutes...


    1 hour...


    Then Ling Wentian asked, "Hey old friend, take it as I am joking but... Is little hao, you know,... Swing that way or uhhh has a problem with that thing".


    Ru Feng snorted and glared at Wentian: "Stupid! How come I the greatest man in our time has a son that has malfunctions! Are you starting a fight here? Hmmp!" After that, he followed up. with a low tone:


    "I think they are just both embarrassed and nervous so we should give them time"


    Wentian immediately replied: "Right, right, they are still inexperienced kids after all."


    After another 2 hours, A sound came from Zhihao''s chamber.


    "Pak!"


    Wentian and Ru Feng heard a heard a crisp slap echoed through the night. Both of them stared at each other then smiled sadly as they sighed, they imagined that something was happening, and little Ning got embarrassed as she slapped Zhihao very hard, they both sighed and vanished back to their quarters.


    ...


    Back with Zhihao''s chamber 1 hour earlier.


    Although an hour has passed, Ning''er was still thinking hard, what is taking this guy so long,


    ''I''ve been prepared for a long time, maybe he is just being considerate. yes, he is that kind of guy after all. I`ll just wait until he is ready.''


    2 hours... Ning''er was already calmed down, but still a bit nervous, as this is her first time,


    But she then heard a snoring sound. ''Kuhhhhhh, Wooooooo, Kuhhhhh woooooo'' just right at this moment, her lovely, and charming appearance changed, drastically, she slowly sat up as she slowly turned to look at Zhihao. the nervousness was gone the time she heard the snoring, and it changed to something else.


    The warm room turned cold instantly, she had this smile. that I bet you won''t ever forget if you ever saw it. then immediately


    "PAK!"


    A loud slap echoed through the chamber as if lightning came down from the heavens.


    Ning''er shouted from the bottom of her stomach.


    "JERK!! STUPID!! IDIOT!!!!!!!"

 Chapter 11: After the Wedding Night

    Zhong Clan, Zhihao''s chamber.


    Zhihao was dreaming, being a Supreme Sovereign soaring the heavens, mountain splits as he wields his sword, heavens shook as he flies in the sky, and earth rumbles as he descends his body. a great dream, having all kinds of wealth and power in his possession establishing his own sect, and unblocked by any paths, he, Zhihao was the greatest, but the greatest sovereign was slapped awake by his Wife on their first Wedding Night!.


    Zhihao woke up extremely fast, well who won¡¯t right? being slapped in the face while you were dreaming of being so damn great. then Zhihao looked at Ning''er with eyes of bewilderment and asked calmly.


    "Dear wife, uhh... why? did I do some..." but before he can finish, another "PLAK!" sounded as he was smacked bye Ning''er''s hand.


    Zhihao''s mind went blank and asked again.


    "Why?"


    This time he held his hands up to guard against another slap. yet the only thing he saw was a beautiful face, glaring at him, while tears are running down his wife''s beautiful eyes.


    Ning''er with a red face could only glare at Zhihao, as she can''t really say it out loud, that what? she was waiting for something to happen to them? wasn''t that like being a pervert? The only thing she could do was tear up as she silently cries,


    Holding her voice and not letting any crying sound out. then she planned to go back to bed, but before she could do it, Zhihao, finally understood something after so many hours had passed.


    Zhihao hugged Ning''er from behind, Ning''er was shocked, but immediately calmed down as she had been preparing for this for 2 hours already, she didn''t reject his approach even slightly, just to affirm her intention.


    Right after that, Zhihao''s voice came: "If you want it, I am so sorry that I couldn''t give it to you earlier, and I know that you can''t talk about it, since you were sleeping, so I`m going to go in the couch, you can keep the whole bed..."


    After finishing that, another hand approached his face, now it''s not a palm, it is seriously a fist now!


    A punch that came from Ning''er sent Zhihao way to the end of their chamber.


    Ning''er glared at him, but can''t blame him too, because he really didn''t know what happened, what he did, and what she meant.


    Ning''er stared at Zhihao as she shouted: "OUR FATHERS WANT TO HAVE A GRANDSON!"


    After that Zhihao sweated a lot as if he just came out of a bath! then Zhihao stared at her for like an hour, stoned stiff like some random statue in a temple.


    Ning''er didn''t know what to do either as she lowered her head ashamed of what she had just said. she kept glancing at Zhihao, then she noticed, Zhihao is just, staring at her, without a soul, and with nervousness all over his face, Ning''er chuckled at his awkwardness as she felt warm as this kind of reaction would be from someone that is pure and also haven''t had any malicious intent towards her.


    She then faced Zhihao as she hugged him and spoke: "Zhihao, you know, uhh since we''re both innocent and don''t know a thing why don''t we take thing slower?" Love this story? Find the genuine version on the author''s preferred platform and support their work!


    She giggled and continues to hug Zhihao.


    Zhihao got shocked by the hug, but calmly thought.


    ''Mentally, I am almost turning 40, but I''m still as stupid as this, although she''s young, I am also young in this body, and I haven''t experienced anything at all, I guess, I`ll just have to live my life, thinking that I''m a 14 year old kid now.''


    Zhihao hugged Ning''er back and slowly tilted his head towards her, when Ning''er saw this, she got shocked and wanted to force herself out, but remembered that this is how she pictured it to happen.


    Ning''er looked at Zhihao as she smile and then closed her eyes.


    Zhihao could feel that she''s trembling, hell, he''s shaking madly, then just as the atmosphere became warm, he just let instinct lead the way, he went and moves his face closer as he kissed her beautiful red lips.


    After a few moments, both of them parted, panting, catching a breath of fresh air as they hugged each other, then Zhihao''s hand slid from her neck down to her spine, making Ning''er feel something extremely weird, after Zhihao had reached behind the stomach area, he easily removed the robe that''s wrapping around Ning''er.


    Ning''er noticed what he was planning to do and just followed the lead, after the robe was removed she wrapped her arms around Zhihao''s neck and kissed him again, she was flustered due to the moment and couldn''t think correctly.


    The night this day is so beautiful as moans and cries can be heard every now and then, but there was a defensive formation outside and also a bonus noise control formation.


    ..


    The Passionate night finally ended as both of them woke up almost in the afternoon, they stared at their each other, butt naked self.


    A bit shy, Ning''er then leaned to Zhihao''s chest as she spoke: "We should go and greet our parents..." but before she could finishing speaking.


    Zhihao kissed her lips and continued: "Ok, let us go and get take a bath first then dressed afterwards, we shall go to the Great Hall, and meet our parents"


    Ning''er smiled as she blushed and nodded.


    After almost an hour of preparations, Ning''er and Zhihao took their leave as they proceeded to the Great Hall.


    Ning''er kept looking at him wanting to say something but couldn''t, she just placed her arm around Zhihao''s arm and walked together.


    Then some random citizens of the town spoke.


    "Hahaha, i guess the first night didn''t go too well"


    "Hahaha that''s for sure, though it''s good too if they are willful like that hahaha"


    Then someone cheered it seemed that he''s a member of the Zhong clan: "Young Master! You can do it! there is always a next time!"


    Then all the surrounding villagers laughed as they pointed at the Zhong Clan member.


    Zhihao was bewildered ''were they talking about me?''


    Zhihao then looked at Ning''er as he asked: "Ning''er, we''re they talking about us?" Then he noticed that Ning''er was actually looking down, so he didn''t bother to continue asking anymore.


    They continued to walk, after 3 more minutes, they arrived at the great hall then as he walked to greet the elderly, he saw something shocking, the two fathers sighed heavily, the two mothers smiled sadly. what the heck is wrong with this, i got married, then they are sad, isn''t this very wrong ?. then he greeted them together


    Zhihao / Ning''er : "Greetings Father and Mother."


    Then Zhihao added, as he was getting annoyed with the atmosphere after leaving his chamber.


    "Father, why are you all sighing? I think its time for us to celebrate my marriage. why are you guys acting like that"


    Hearing Zhihao, all of them sighed heavily again. his Father suddenly spoke : "Don''t worry, you don''t have to rush anything, you both are still young so you`ll have lots of opportunity. don''t force yourself, the both of you"


    Just after Ru Feng finished speaking, Zhihao immediately spoke.


    "Father what are you even talking about, we''re even going to announce something good. so why are you guys so gloomy, first off, maybe in nine months you''ll have a Grandson or Granddaughter then you both can decide on my child''s name ....." before he finished speaking.


    Both the fathers, ran forward and asked right away: "Son/Daughter are you guys serious?"


    The Dullness in their eyes turned into brightness as you can clearly see tears falling in them, two Great Lords of the great Clans, that didn''t tear up even after getting deeply wounded, cried after knowing their grandchild is in the making, they almost wept, they went back to their own Wife and hugged them while crying tears of joy.


    Ning''er smiled bashfully as she said: "We don''t know yet but we tried last night, umm,, I think there would be a high chance, as it took us a long time....." after saying that much, she seemingly noticed that she had said too much and blushed from her head to her neck.


    then Ruo Mei asked : "Then, Son, what happened to your face? why is there a slap mark on both of your cheeks, and a punch mark in the middle of your brows? "


    After hearing what his mother said, Zhihao widened his eyes in a bewildered manner and looked at Ning''er, Seemingly asking if what are they talking about, and if what they are talking about is true?


    Zhihao thought inside his head.


    ''Wife, why didn''t you say anything? my Wife, dear loving Wife, at least... at least save some face for your Husband when he''s walking in the street, I can''t even think of walking outside to return to my own courtyard.
