With Dugu Xiaoyi's face streaked with tears, Guan Qinghan was so mortified she could have crawled into a hole and died! This damned bastard!
How will I ever show my face again... But the moment she caught sight of Jun Moxie’s still-smoldering, desire-filled eyes, Guan Qinghan jumped, quickly closing her own and pretending she hadn't woken up.
This man was simply too strong; she truly couldn't bear it anymore. Even now, her entire body felt numb...
"So, still not awake? Then let's do this another n times while you're still out of it..." Jun Moxie chuckled, his large hands reaching for her once more.
Guan Qinghan hurriedly opened her eyes and pleaded for mercy. She truly couldn't withstand any more onslaughts in this state.
Jun Moxie lay comfortably in the middle of the bed, his left and right sides enveloped by soft jade and fragrant warmth, feeling overwhelmingly content... It wasn't until the afternoon that Dugu Xiaoyi and Guan Qinghan finally found the strength to get up, looking at each other in silence.
Both were flushed, feeling intensely awkward and genuinely embarrassed in front of the other, as newcomers to wifely duties... After a long while, the atmosphere finally began to dissipate slightly.
Then, Dugu Xiaoyi leaned close to Guan Qinghan’s ear and whispered something, causing Guan Qinghan to blush furiously and protest; the two women began to playfully wrestle... However, Dugu Xiaoyi, who had suffered more severe impacts, couldn't move yet.
She frowned, grinding her teeth: Next time, absolutely no cooking for me... It truly hurts too much...
This meal certainly isn't that good... especially for one person serving two—I definitely can’t swallow this bowl down...
Meanwhile, Young Master Jun was standing at the very pinnacle of the Evil Monarch’s Residence, gazing out into the wind with a faint smile on his lips, murmuring to himself: "This cooking... it's quite the flavor." It seems I'll need to cook more often, or I’ll truly starve..." But then there was that huge bowl of rice for Mei Xueyan, clearly meant to be cooked but ended up being underdone—frustrating, so utterly frustrating...
Young Master Jun ground his teeth at the thought: That girl really infuriates me... If I ever get my hands on you next time, this young master will show you how to properly discipline you until you beg for mercy, I won't stop teaching you...
But after thinking it over, he let out a resigned sigh. Although the wish was pleasant, its realization was incredibly difficult...
Mei Xueyan can change back whenever she feels scared... How can that be stopped?
Headache... Young Master Jun frowned unhappily, racking his brain to figure out how to resolve this issue.
Time is the most easily spent thing; in the blink of an eye, five more days had passed. Yet, time is also the crucial medium that draws people closer.
In these brief five days, the relationships among the women had grown increasingly strong. Even Miao Xiaomiao, the last to join, gradually integrated into the larger family.
Poor little princess of the Illusionary Mansion spent her days accompanying this band of wives and, in these few short days, learned the profoundly detrimental gambling game of Mahjong. Furthermore, her enthusiasm soared to such heights that within five days, she had accrued so much debt that she successfully usurped Dugu Xiaoyi and the others’ title as the 'Queen of Misfortune'...
And the biggest winner of the Fangcheng Battle was neither Mei Xueyan, nor Guan Qinghan, nor any of the other women. The true grand victor was Dongfang Wenxin.
Jun Moxie's mother had truly galloped ahead, making all the daughters-in-law lament their impending financial ruin upon seeing the mother-in-law’s gambling prowess. Occasionally, Young Master Jun Moxie would join in, but his results were meager, winning less than he lost.
The moment he entered the game, the battle, which had previously been fought individually, immediately shifted, and the other three parties would resolutely form a united front! They crushed the Monarch of Evil, who was trying to snatch some fun amidst his intense pill refinement, causing his mouth to twist and forcing him to exclaim that he was succeeding in love but failing disastrously at gambling.
Even if the Young Master managed to pull off a rare big win and collected the chips he deserved, the women would repeatedly deduct them! If the Young Master failed to read the room and dared to retort or complain, he would immediately face a unified assault from all the women!
Through the Fangcheng Battle, Young Master Jun profoundly realized one truth: fighting against women is absolutely the most foolish choice! If you win, they say, "Are you even a man, bullying women!" If you lose, they say, "Are you even a man, unable to beat even a woman!" Another matter truly worth mentioning is that Young Master Jun’s practical harem lineup had now expanded to three members.
Currently, he was practically enjoying nightly revelry, living a life worse than a beast's—truly enjoying the blessing of having them all, embraced on the left and right, thoroughly satisfying his heart. The three women, unable to handle him alone, banded together to fight, and although they couldn't claim to be perfectly handling him yet, they were no longer as helpless as before, managing to hold out for perhaps an extra cycle of time.
This situation naturally made the certain wolf even more addicted, keeping his spear ready day and night. As for the First Wife, Mei Xueyan, she had been feeling guilty since the day before yesterday.
During this period, she buried herself in the Heavenly Punishment Forest consolidating her Profound Beast teams. When she occasionally returned, it was furtively; she would quickly handle her business and leave the moment she saw Young Master Jun wasn't around, daring not to be caught alone and targeted by the certain wolf...
Young Master Jun wasn't worried about this, though. As the saying goes, a gentleman's revenge is not too late even after ten years!
That day, the girl made me suffer so much; do you think hiding away for a few days will make it over? Do you think you can escape just by not coming back?
Can you escape the monk or the temple? Once I find the opportunity, just watch how I deal with you!
You can avoid me for a moment, but can you avoid me for a lifetime? When the time comes, I won't even need to lift a finger; won't you willingly offer yourself up?
At that thought, chuckling with malicious glee, Young Master Jun inexplicably let out a terrifying, owl-like laugh that made the hairs stand on end for Tian Can and Di Que, who were sparring nearby. To be frightened so severely by a mere laugh that Tian Can and Di Que—two bold young rascals who had long since ceased to fear life or death—were reduced to this state, Young Master Jun’s laugh was indeed extraordinary!
It wasn't just the two youngsters; even Baili Luoyun, who was supervising nearby, involuntarily shivered several times upon hearing that sound. He immediately lowered his gaze, focusing his eyes on his nose and his nose on his heart, absolutely refusing to glance in Young Master Jun's direction.
Absolutely do not court disaster! I now have a family and a wife; I cannot become a target for this Monarch of Evil...
That feeling is not pleasant at all... Speaking of Baili Luoyun, a rare genius youth of the last century, one matter truly deserves mention.
After parting ways outside Xi Cheng that day, Baili Luoyun caught up with Zhan Mengdie, and both were overjoyed upon meeting. Furthermore, since the Zhan family's ancestor, Zhan Mubai, had already met a tragic end in Jun Moxie’s hands, the Zhan family had lost its greatest pillar of support.
Baili Luoyun’s powerful presence, coupled with his Saint Emperor level cultivation and several Saint-level experts under his command, represented an irresistibly powerful force to the Zhan family! It was like pie falling from the sky.
Therefore, the Zhan family members, who had previously despised this illegitimate son of a noble family and certainly would never have agreed to marry their precious daughter off to the seemingly hopeless Baili Luoyun, instantly changed their tune! And it was a complete one-hundred-and-eighty-degree turn!
It progressed to the point where they feared Baili Luoyun’s power and influence growing so much that his horizons would widen, causing him to develop feelings for someone else and abandon Zhan Mengdie... They eagerly pushed their daughter toward him, almost crying and begging him...
This is the benefit of status and strength! This is the concrete manifestation of a world where might makes right!
In those few short days, the minor tedious procedures like presenting betrothal gifts and setting the engagement were completed. If time hadn't been so pressing, the Zhan family leaders likely would have sent the pair straight to the bridal chamber to cook their 'life-long rice'...
For the current Zhan family, having just lost their greatest backer, there was nothing more important than securing the allegiance of this peerless expert, Baili Luoyun, to their side to exact revenge for their ancestor Zhan Mubai over the next few days... But this attempt was met with cruel opposition from Baili Luoyun, or perhaps it should be said, they were struck by cruel reality...
They finally discovered that the new son-in-law they had joyfully accepted, the Zhan family's greatest future hope, and the primary source for their revenge was, in fact, a subordinate of that very Monarch of Evil, Jun Moxie, who had killed their ancestor! This shocking revelation stunned the Zhan family!
They were completely at a loss. Seeing the murderous aura radiating from their new son-in-law, it was clear that if the Zhan family did not change its original intention to oppose the Monarch of Evil, he would not hesitate to eliminate his own kin for the sake of righteousness!
The Zhan family fell into a silence as if they had eaten excrement. After a long pause, they finally reached a decision: cease the pursuit of revenge.
Any matter seems difficult before a decision is made, but once a decision is reached, reasons instantly abound. Countless logical, reasonable justifications emerged!
“Although Zhan Mubai was the ancestor of the Zhan family, his contribution to the family was negligible given how long he had been absent from home. Now that he has appeared, he has directly brought an irresistible catastrophe upon the family...
It is a blessing that the ancestors protected the Zhan family so it survived by sheer luck. We descendants have no business meddling in the grievances of an ancestor from a thousand years ago...
It is better to turn weapons into ornaments and instead gain a massive pillar of support. Why not?
Furthermore, the Monarch of Evil’s side clearly values human connection far more than the Three Great Sacred Lands...” It is unclear who said this, but it was immediately met with widespread approval. Thus, they slowly calmed down from their panic and began a lively discussion, ultimately deciding that everything would be based on the opinion of their new son-in-law, Baili Luoyun, to lead the Zhan family toward glory...
And so, everyone was happy... In reality, one could not entirely blame the Zhan family for being unfeeling; after all, he was an ancestor who hadn't shown his face in a millennium...
That emotional attachment was simply too faint... But the main reason remained one point: in this most pragmatic world, having the biggest fist is what ultimately decides everything!
Even without Baili Luoyun's intervention, if Young Master Jun had shown even a hint of intent, if they had cursed Zhan Mubai severely, Jun Moxie wouldn't destroy the Zhan family—the Zhan family would have complied immediately, perhaps even doing more, all to win the favor of the Monarch of Evil! What is more important than the continuation of the family?
Baili Luoyun and Zhan Mengdie married quickly within the Zhan family, and immediately after the honeymoon period, they returned to the Evil Monarch’s Residence. Thus, this pair of lovers finally achieved their union.
Baili Luoyun knew clearly that everything he had today, everything he possessed, and the ability to marry the woman he hadn't dared to dream of before, was entirely granted by Jun Moxie!
