Chapter 55 - 55: So-Called Surprise
He returned to the small courtyard in Yunhe Alley.
Alchemist Feng was leaning against the wooden window, and a burning smell spread out from inside. Hearing the commotion, he looked at the entrance of the small courtyard. “It’s rare for Talisman Master Shen to go out… Eh, who is this fellow Daoist behind you?”
Shen Ping cupped his hands and smiled. “This is my new Dao companion.” As he spoke, he turned around and instructed in a low voice.
Luo Qing hurriedly bowed respectfully. “Luo Qing greets Senior Feng.”
Alchemist Feng’s eyes revealed envy. “Talisman Master Shen is really a role model for our generation. Unfortunately, 1 still can’t let it go. If 1 could be as carefree as Fellow Daoist Shen, perhaps my life would be much better.”
Shen Ping shook his head. “Alchemist Feng, pursuing the Great Dao is what we cultivators should do. I’m greedy for the joy of the mortal world. I’m afraid it’ll be difficult for me to build my foundation in this life.”
Alchemist Feng smiled. “Talisman Master Shen is too humble.”
The two of them chatted for a while.
Shen Ping came into the house. “Yun’er, Ying’er. Let me introduce you to a new Fellow Daoist.”
As his voice fell, Wang Yun and Bai Yuying walked out of the talisman-making room and the quiet room respectively. The two girls quickly noticed the delicate Luo Qing.
“Her name is Luoqing. She’s my new Dao companion.” Shen Ping said casually.
Wang Yun smiled sweetly. “Congratulations, husband.”
Bai Yuying giggled and said, “Husband, it’s time to change our beds.”
Shen Ping waved his hand. “There’s no need to change for now. Fellow Daoist Luo will cultivate in the quiet room tonight. I’m still waiting for your surprise.” With that, he walked straight to the talisman making room.
The two women were stunned. They looked at Luo Qing and saw that her expression did not change. Their eyes revealed a trace of doubt. Their husband had always been interested in sex.
Now, a new Dao companion has entered the house. He should be impatient. Why was she being neglected instead?
Late at night. Bai Yuying said weakly, “Husband, you’re really powerful today. It’s as if I’ve seen an immortal. Unfortunately, 1 didn’t have any luck and quickly fell.”
His wife, Wang Yun, did not say anything.
Shen Ping smiled happily. “Yun’er, Ying’er, I thought that you would always disagree. I didn’t expect this surprise to come so quickly.”
After interacting with them for a few years, he finally has everything of his wife and concubine today. There was no longer any distance between them.
Bai Yuying snorted. “Husband, I won’t be able to sit cross-legged and cultivate tomorrow. Don’t you know how to take pity on me?”
Shen Ping was in a good mood and hurriedly comforted them. “It’s my fault. You guys rest first. On account of this surprise, 1 won’t trouble you anymore.”
However, Bai Yuying hugged Shen Ping’s arm. There was a hint of eroticism in the corners of her eyes as she snickered. “Is my husband not going to make it?”
Smack. Waves shook. Shen Ping said seriously, “I’m afraid that you won’t be able to cook tomorrow.”
As he spoke, he opened the attribute panel. Seeing the changes in the virtual frame, he could not help but reveal a trace of surprise. He could actually improve like this?!
Wait a minute…
He noticed that his wife, Wang Yun’s favorability had also changed.
[Your wife is deeply in love with you. Her body and mind are yours. Current favorability: 1OO+1OO]
The entire virtual frame’s silver depths gradually revealed traces of golden light, but this trace of golden light was indistinct. Seeing this, Shen Ping’s gaze was complicated as he sighed softly in his heart. “Yun’er. Just now, 1 was only greedy for sex and didn’t care about your body.”
Wang Yun looked up, her gentle voice filled with joy. “Husband, 1 like it too.”
Bai Yuying grabbed his arm and shook it. “Husband.”
The next morning, the skylight was enveloped in waves of coldness. Shen Ping walked into the quiet room. Luo Qing sat cross-legged without moving. “Fellow Daoist Luo. If you’re unwilling, I can send you back to the Ze Kingdom.”
Hearing this, Luo Qing’s tightly shut eyes trembled slightly. Then, she opened them and shook her head. “I appreciate Senior Shen’s kindness. Since I’ve become your Dao Companion, 1’11 do my best to serve you. Don’t worry about this, Senior Shen.”
Shen Ping did not say anything else. He could tell that this Luo Qing in front of him had many worries and even the intention to die. However, she could not break free because of some restrictions.
The bottom level of cultivators was cruel. Anything could happen. Family destruction and family separation were just a drop in the ocean.
In response, he did not dare to feel any sympathy. After all, he could not even guarantee his own safety in Cloud Mountain Parlour, so how could he sympathize with others?
It was almost noon when Yu Yan was back. Shen Ping was rather surprised. Usually, Yu Yan would only return from the Cloud Mountain Swamp every two to three days. This time, only a day had passed.
Noticing that Yu Yan’s expression was a little solemn, he could not help but ask, “What happened?”
“The demonic sects of Yue Kingdom have arrived. It’s Luosha Demonic Valley. My master died at the hands of the demonic cultivators of the Luosha Demonic Valley.” Yu Yan’s voice was very calm.
However, Shen Ping still sensed that her body was trembling.
“Although the Acacia Faction is a demonic sect in Jin Kingdom, they always have a disguise when they do things. Sometimes, they have some scruples. However, the Luosha Demonic Valley of Yue Kingdom is extremely ruthless. They have no fear at all. They are complete lunatics.” Towards the end, Yu Yan gritted her teeth.
Shen Ping grabbed Yu Yan’s wrist. “The Golden Sun Sect has always hated the demonic path in Yue Kingdom. They had many missions to arrest demonic cultivators who had fled into the Wei Kingdom. Why did they let them in this time?”
He voiced his doubts.
Yu Yan calmed down and frowned slightly. “They should have come under the name of the Danxia Sect. No matter what it is, the market will be in turmoil again in the future. The Luosha Demonic Valley won’t leave easily after coming in.”
Shen Ping nodded, but he was still puzzled. “Fellow Daoist Yu, 1 think there’s something wrong recently. So many sects have surged into the Wei Kingdom and all of them have come to Cloud Mountain Parlour. It’s probably impossible for them to just help the Sect Master of the Golden Sun Sect and obtain the mining rights of the Flame Gold Mine at the same time.”
Yu Yan was stunned for a moment before saying solemnly, “It’s indeed strange. However, we’re weak and can’t sense it at all. Husband, you must be extremely careful from now on.”
This was the first time she had called Shen Ping ‘Husband’. Before Shen Ping could speak, Yu Yan hugged him and whispered into his ear, “I want it now, immediately!”
Shen Ping was stunned and looked straight at Yu Yan. He only reacted when he sensed the uneasiness in the depths of her eyes. Then he carried Yu Yan and strode into the main room without a word.
On the wooden board, waves of rustling were heard. The clothes were no longer the barrier.
Looking at the swaying sweet grapefruits and thinking of the actual situation that had been difficult to progress, Shen Ping took a deep breath.. “Fellow Daoist Yu, I want to change my way of living!”
