Bold Witch, Don’T Hurt My Husband

Chapter 20: Little Marquis Saves a Life

Although the Demon Sect is also a top sect, it faces equally heavy pressure.

The infiltration of an unknown place into the human realm forces major human sects to send experts to counter it. Otherwise, how could there be only so few people with cultivation at the Supreme Three Realms level, whose lifespan starts at a thousand years?

The reason why Celestial Fragrance Gate is so obsessed with Xia Fan's luck is because their sect is on the verge of decline. They must quickly establish several stable sects at the Supreme Three Realms level, so they are willing to sacrifice and share some luck.

The Disaster Breaking Pill can help Liu Shifei recover from her injuries as soon as possible. With her guarding the sect, the Sixth Ancestor can go support the Eighth Ancestor without worry.

And the Eternal Spring Pill can not only heal injuries but also extend lifespan. These are actually needed by other members of the sect, and they are urgently needed.

Liu Shifei knows about this situation, so she chose to compromise. Otherwise, as a strong person who dares to challenge the Heavenly Gate, she would not allow others to touch her husband, even if it is only in name.

"Wife, wife, can you hear me?"

On the shore of Mirror Lake, a young child dressed in a black robe, Xia Fan, shouted loudly at the lake surface while holding a white jade gourd.

"I'm here, what's the matter?"

After a moment, a voice as melodious as an orchid in a secluded valley came, which was the voice of his wife.

"The sect master said this is useful for your injuries, so he asked me to bring it to you!"

As soon as the words fell, the white jade gourd in Xia Fan's hand emitted a white light, and then the mouth of the gourd opened, and a pill with a green glow flew out.

"Hmm?"

A surprised voice came from the bottom of the lake.

At this moment, at the bottom of Mirror Lake, a stunning woman dressed in a black dress with a flame-like pattern on her forehead instinctively opened her eyes. It was Liu Shifei.

However, her gaze was not on the Disaster Breaking Pill that flew away, but on the white jade gourd in Xia Fan's hand. Just now, the white jade gourd emitted a flash of white light, indicating that it had a high level of spirituality. It turned out to be a Spiritual Treasure.

If it hadn't revealed its spiritual light, she wouldn't have noticed it at such a close distance. It's really interesting.

The Disaster Breaking Pill flew away, and the white jade gourd returned to its original plain appearance, without any trace of strangeness.

Liu Shifei made a gesture with her bare hand and caught the Disaster Breaking Pill floating in the air. Then she said:

"I understand. Cultivate well and ascend to immortality as soon as possible. I will regularly check your progress!"

"I understand!"

Hearing this, Liu Shifei couldn't help but smile. In an instant, this dim underwater world seemed much brighter. This little adult-like appearance of Xia Fan really amused her, but unfortunately, no one saw this scene.

Then, she saw a cold light flash in her forehead, turning into a long sword. The sword emitted a cold light, had no hilt or scabbard, and only had a single blade. Faintly, it exuded a weak immortal aura, quietly floating in front of her.

"Go, keep an eye on that gourd for me. If there is any movement, cut it down!"

"Yes!"

A cold voice came, and the next second, the long sword disappeared in the lake.

Xia Fan, who was holding the white jade gourd, waited by the lake for a while. When he realized that his wife had no more movements, he shook his head helplessly.

As the saying goes, some people are in love, some people cheat, and some people are single from the beginning of the year to the end.

He had already transmigrated, and even got married, but life seemed no different from before. Thinking that his wife would spend years in seclusion, he felt that his time being single would be extended by quite a bit.

"Ah~"

He sighed and returned to the willow tree, placing the gourd on the side and sitting cross-legged. He took out the letter given to him by Qian Youliang, and it was indeed written by Lou Qingxue.

"Xiao Fan, reading this letter is like seeing me in person. I don't know if you are safe now."

"I was originally a woman of the mortal world, but I was able to redeem myself thanks to your influence, Xiao Fan. I know that there is a difference between immortals and mortals, and I only hope that your path to immortality is smooth, without worrying about people like us!"

"A mortal's life is only a hundred years. Bright City will always be your home within those hundred years. After a hundred years, please don't come back, as it will only bring more sadness."

A letter doesn't have many words, it just explains her current situation and assures me not to worry. Upon reading this, Xia Fan couldn't help but sigh, carefully tucking the letter into his chest and then activating the "Longevity Technique" to cultivate. Ah, the path of cultivation is long and arduous.

He only has three volumes in his hands, and he discovered that after a month of cultivation, this technique not only cultivates balance and harmony but also increases his vitality.

Cultivation, cultivation. In the beginning, the purpose of cultivation was only one: immortality. It was only later, as conflicts arose among cultivators, that the concept of achievements and techniques gradually emerged.

He still couldn't learn the Divine Ability secret techniques of the Demon Sect. They were all similar, and only when one reached the Transcendent Mortal realm could they cultivate Divine Ability.

Below the Transcendent Mortal realm, one couldn't even call themselves a cultivator because they still belonged to the mortal realm. They only had increased strength and speed. Therefore, those who went out on expeditions from various sects had to at least be in the Transcendent Mortal realm.

He sat in meditation and unexpectedly it was already evening. Xia Fan, who was meditating, didn't feel the passage of time at all.

Just as he was immersed in his cultivation, a faint white light emanated from the white jade gourd beside him.

At midnight, Xia Fan exhaled a breath of turbid air and slowly opened his eyes. He stood up, his body crackling, and glanced at the calm lake. He picked up the white jade gourd beside him and returned to his bamboo house.

His cultivation proceeded step by step. Since he was called to sign seven marriage contracts, no one had disturbed him.

Only Lin Su would occasionally come to check if he was dead and bring him some food. In the blink of an eye, a month had passed.

It had been over two months since he arrived at the Demon Sect. As his cultivation progressed, Xia Fan could clearly feel the changes happening in his body.

Spiritual energy circulated through his meridians, and his energy, strength, and speed were all rapidly increasing. Although he still had a long way to go before becoming a Sword Immortal, he was full of confidence in himself.

"Oh, there's meat today. How rare!" Xia Fan looked at the grilled fish in the lunch box with surprise. Although he had spiritual energy protecting his body and wouldn't suffer from malnutrition by eating vegetarian food, who could resist delicious food?

"Stolen."

"Stolen?"

"I saw someone grilling fish outside the valley when I came here, so I took it." Xia Fan: ...

Indeed, it's the Demon Sect. Even stealing things is justified like this.

"Alright, you eat. I'll come to see you tomorrow!" After saying that, Lin Su turned into a streak of light and disappeared. Soon, the grilled fish was completely devoured by Xia Fan. He picked up the white jade gourd beside him and tapped its mouth.

Yes, he had been using this white jade gourd as a thermos. It was a habit he developed in his previous life, just missing some wolfberries, otherwise it would be even better.

He did want to have some alcohol, but since he couldn't even get any meat, where would he find alcohol? He couldn't even catch the big blue fish in the lake.

At night, when Xia Fan lay in his bamboo house resting, as soon as he fell asleep, the white jade gourd beside him floated up and spun above his head.

It seemed to be absorbing his yang energy. If Liu Shifei hadn't been in seclusion, she would have noticed that this gourd was actually using Xia Fan's luck to cultivate. It had now reached the most critical step.

The next second, a sword qi slashed through the air and headed straight for the white jade gourd.

"Ding!" With a sound, sparks flew, and the white jade gourd was knocked away.

Naturally, such a commotion woke up Xia Fan from his sleep, but the next second, he froze.

He saw a sword suspended in mid-air, pointing at the neck of a well-proportioned, curvaceous woman dressed in white.

For a moment, Xia Fan was dumbfounded, not because of the woman's appearance, after all, she couldn't be more beautiful than his wife, but because she was really tall.

"Little husband, save me!" Xia Fan: ???

Who am I? Where am I? What am I supposed to do?

At this moment, in a valley by the river in the Demon Sect, Xiao Fengshan muttered with a puzzled expression, "Huh? Where's my fish? Where did my grilled fish go? Did it fly away on its own?"
