Marry the Demon Sect Girl with No Bride Price-Chapter 114: If the World Has No More Enemies, Nor Any Loved Ones

Chapter 114: Chapter 114: If the World Has No More Enemies, Nor Any Loved Ones

[Cultivation: Qi Cultivation Sixth-Layer, 526/3000]

[Skill: Third Tier Alchemist, 5/1000]

[Spirit Root: Fire Series Middle Grade Spirit Root (701/1000), Ice Series Middle Grade Spirit Root (723/1000)]

[Available Cultivation Points: 56]

Qin Gengyun stepped out, walking down the mist-covered street of the morning, as illusory text floated before his eyes.

Usually, a night’s work earned him 28 cultivation points, but last night he got 56 points!

It doubled!

The reason was simple, from last night to this morning, Qiu Zhihe had suppressed him fourteen times!

Qin Gengyun had heard legends of men who could go ten or twelve times a night, never expecting that he could one day surpass such tales.

But the cost was significant too; he was now staggering as he walked, his legs weak.

Even as a Qi Cultivation Sixth-Layer cultivator, fourteen times in a night was mentally exhausting.

Qin Gengyun held his waist, puzzled.

Though his wife was cold and often temperamental, she was very pragmatic, taking care of many family matters.

Knowing he was going to Yunling Mountain tonight to study, why did she insist on so many times?

This was unlike her usual self.

What’s wrong with her?

Is it because the master is a female cultivator, and she’s jealous, not wanting me to visit the master?

Yet it was she who encouraged me to apprentice with the master.

After much thought, Qin Gengyun couldn’t figure it out, so he didn’t dwell on it further, adding all 56 points to his cultivation, altering the panel attributes:

[Cultivation: Qi Cultivation Sixth-Layer, 582/3000]

At this time, the sky was still not fully bright, and Yunling Town had few people about. Qin Gengyun soon left the town and headed up Yunling Mountain.

Arriving at the familiar forest, he indeed did not see the master’s figure.

Perhaps the master waited for a long time without seeing me and left in anger?

Qin Gengyun felt very guilty, not knowing how to find the master and explain, when he suddenly noticed a faint glow on the trunk of a large tree.

With a thought, Qin Gengyun raised his hand and punched out with the Golden Dawn Fist, hitting the trunk, and the light dissipated, transforming into a piece of text:

"I have something to attend to and will be gone for a month, you do not need to come during this time. Focus on your cultivation, there will be an examination when I return."

This was left by the master.

Qin Gengyun felt slightly relieved, apparently the master wasn’t angry.

This month, he would diligently practice three cultivation techniques, and when the master returned, he would surely surprise her.

Narrow Rain Lane.

At Qin Gengyun’s home.

"Saintess, are you saying disciples of the Zhenyang Sect came to spy on us last night?"

Liu Su slammed the table: "If they dare come again tonight, I’ll kill all of them!"

Qiu Zhihe, eating quietly, said, "One of them is a Foundation Establishment cultivator, you’re only at Qi Cultivation Fourth-Layer, you can’t kill him."

Liu Su immediately deflated, grumbling angrily: "If I weren’t injured, a mere Foundation Establishment wouldn’t be a problem to handle! Alas!"

She then slapped her thigh, looking at Qiu Zhihe: "Saintess, you’re already at Qi Cultivation Seventh-Layer! When you were at the Sixth-Layer, you could already slay Foundation Establishment cultivators; if you act, none of them will escape!"

Qiu Zhihe shook her head: "If we kill them in Yunling Town, the Zhenyang Sect will lock onto this place, and it would... implicate him."

"True enough." Liu Su nodded, lying on the table, glancing at Qiu Zhihe:

"Saintess, your last three words are the main point, right?"

Qiu Zhihe glanced at her coldly, saying, "Liu Su, as long as the blood feud with the Cyan Lotus Sect remains unavenged, my life will never be my own — don’t speak of love affairs before that!"

Liu Su was silent for a moment, then sat up, no longer carefree:

"Sister, we grew up together, and you’ve always treated me as your own sister, so naturally I’m with you for your revenge, but..."

Liu Su moved closer, holding Qiu Zhihe’s arm, and gently rested her head on her shoulder:

"If the day comes when you have annihilated the three sects but find yourself alone, would you regret it?"

Qiu Zhihe calmly said, "He asked me today, what does a cultivator seek? I said, perhaps the path to immortality, or ascension to a sage, or... to have no enemies left in the world."

"Before at the Cyan Lotus Sect, I didn’t know what I sought in cultivation; I just kept training."

"Now, I know where my path lies."

To have no enemies left meant to kill them all.

Liu Su stared at Qiu Zhihe’s face, then nestled her head on her shoulder again.

"Saintess, tell me, if one day Qiu Zhihe disappears forever, what will happen to that guy?"

Qiu Zhihe calmly replied, "He will find another wife suitable for him."

Liu Su opened her mouth to speak but eventually sighed softly.

They spoke no more, just quietly leaning on each other.

...

In the evening.

After Qin Gengyun and Liu Su finished refining pills, they returned to the bedroom.

Seeing Qiu Zhihe already asleep, he couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief.

The depletion last night was too much; today was definitely not possible.

Qin Gengyun removed his outer garments, got into bed, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

In Narrow Rain Lane, on several rooftops, over a dozen Zhenyang Sect Outer Sect disciples crouched, all watching the large house at the end of the alley.

But after waiting for a long time, there was still no movement from that house.

Fang Xue, also among these crouching disciples, was puzzled when she whispered to Luo Zhenfeng:

"Senior Brother Luo, who are we monitoring?" 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

Luo Zhenfeng glanced at her, then leisurely said, "Qin Gengyun, and his wife."

Fang Xue widened her eyes in surprise, nearly gasping, covering her mouth with both hands, and lowering her voice:

"Uncle Qin and Sister Qiu? Senior Brother Luo, they’re not doing anything; is this a misunderstanding?"

Luo Zhenfeng raised an eyebrow: "Are you very familiar with them?"

Fang Xue quickly replied, "Not very familiar, but they visited my house as guests and chatted for a bit."

Luo Zhenfeng was silent for a long while, looking at the sky, the full moon overhead, and suspected it would end without success tonight.

He frowned slightly, then suddenly said, "Junior Sister, I’ve got an important task for you."

...

The next day.

Qin Gengyun and his family of three had just finished breakfast and were preparing to drag Liu Su to cultivation when there was a sudden knock on the door.

"I’ll get it!"

Liu Su ran to open the door, seeing a young girl in a water green jade patterned skirt standing outside, with a delicate and beautiful appearance.

The girl was momentarily stunned when she saw Liu Su, her eyes flashing with amazement, and she promptly saluted:

"Taoist Friend, may I ask if Qin Gengyun lives here?"

"Yes, what do you want with him?"

Liu Su sized up Fang Xue, comparing her first with Qiu Zhihe and then with herself, mentally relieved, her tone unkind.

The girl held her posture, "My name is Fang Xue. My father once worked with Uncle Qin, who helped my father a lot, so I wanted to visit and express my gratitude."

"Susu, who is it?" Just then Qin Gengyun walked over, seeing the girl, his face breaking into a smile:

"Taoist Friend Fang? It’s you."

Fang Xue saluted again: "Uncle Qin, my father said you lived on Narrow Rain Lane, so I asked around for the landlord and found out where your Immortal Mansion is."

Qin Gengyun laughed: "What Immortal Mansion? Taoist Friend Fang, you’re joking. Come in, please."

"Thank you."

Fang Xue entered and looked around curiously, seeing Qiu Zhihe emerge from the kitchen, her eyes lit up as she approached:

"Sister Qiu!"

Qiu Zhihe looked at her, a flash of coldness in her eyes, but her face was calm and expressionless:

"Taoist Friend Fang, you’re here."

"Sister Qiu, I came to thank Uncle Qin on behalf of my father."

Fang Xue repeated the excuse she had prepared, smiling brightly but feeling a bit melancholic inside.

Her reason for visiting Qin Gengyun was not for her father’s gratitude, but per Luo Zhenfeng’s arrangement.

"Junior Sister Fang, go to Qin Gengyun’s house and secretly investigate, especially noting if there are any spirit plant pots and high-grade spirit grass."
