Chapter 52: Kidnapping the husband first is victory



Storytelling is Chen Guanshui’s strong point.

Although the upper limit of military power in this world is high, there is no Internet after all. People have not experienced the information explosion, so they don’t have enough understanding of the whole life. For example, Shi Liuli is indeed smart enough, but after all, his experience is there, and sometimes he can be easily fooled.

Chen Guanshui started from when he was still a mortal, and said that he was lucky enough to encounter the Kunlun Mirror, and knew that the world had only more than a thousand years left to live, so he accidentally embarked on the road to saving the world...

"Wait." Shi Liuli suddenly interrupted him, "She said the world is about to be destroyed, and you believed it?"

"What else?" Chen Guanshui spread his hands and said, "Don't forget, I was just a mortal at that time."

Shi Liuli remained silent, thinking that it was not surprising.

There are so many mortals. If Chen Guanshui refuses to believe it, this Taoist friend Yao Chi can just go find the next one... In the end, he will always find someone who believes it.

"What happened next?" Shi Liuli asked in a low voice.

"Later, wherever there were fragments of the Heaven-Repairing Stone, I would lurk there." Chen Guanshui sighed and said, "I had no choice. After all, she was just a mirror at that time."

"Wait." Shi Liuli finally realized something was wrong, "You mean that fellow Taoist Yao Chi..."

"She is actually the spirit of a magic weapon incarnated in person," said Chen Guanshui.

It took Shi Liuli about a minute to finally digest this fact.

It turned out to be an innate spiritual treasure... No, this is also outrageous, okay?

Such an innate spiritual treasure, why didn't he leave with that group of great and powerful beings, nor did he stay in some immortal cave or secret realm waiting for people to find him, but instead he ran around the world looking for a savior?

And if it weren't for your spirit, how could my husband have attracted so many female fairies from other sects!

Shi Liuli subconsciously blamed the Kunlun Mirror and had a much worse impression of this fellow Taoist from Yao Chi.

However, she thought again that if it weren't for the Kunlun Mirror's arrangement, her husband wouldn't have met her. In a sense, this artifact spirit could be considered a matchmaker between the two of them.

After her father's death, Shi Liuli was depressed for a long time. Fortunately, her husband was by her side, and she was able to get out of the difficult situation in her life.

If she hadn't had a husband at that time...she didn't even dare to think about such a possibility.

Shi Liuli was in an extremely conflicted mood at this moment, and he didn't know whether the Kunlun Mirror was his benefactor or his enemy.

"Then what's going on with you in Kunlun and Shushan?" she continued to ask.

"It's almost the same here as in Penglai." Chen Guanshui replied.

Speaking of this, Shi Liuli became angry again and said coldly:

"I heard that Kunlun Chang Geng and Qiong Ying are very loving and are known as a couple of gods. I wonder what's going on?"

Chen Guanshui was greatly embarrassed, and felt guilty as if he had been caught cheating by his wife. He could only stammer:

"The Xu family of Tiannan wanted to propose marriage, and the headmaster of Ziwei was the guarantor. What could I do? I was only at the Foundation Establishment Stage at that time."

"Foundation Building Stage..." Shi Liuli was choked for a moment, and then argued, "Is it impossible to refuse someone at the Foundation Building Stage? You don't have any opinion at all. You marry whoever the master tells you to marry? Don't you consider me at all?"

"Liuli, is there a possibility?" Chen Guanshui asked cautiously, "At that time, we were just ordinary senior sister and junior brother?"

Shi Liuli was speechless again, but the anger in his chest not only did not die down, but became even more intense and difficult to suppress.

So you and Qiongying knew each other first, and I was the latecomer, right?

She cast a spell to adjust the fire without saying a word. Chen Guanshui saw her expression and knew that he had stepped on a minefield. He also did not dare to speak and just worked silently.

Shi Liuli saw that he didn't come to comfort her, and she became more and more angry. After enduring for a quarter of an hour, she felt like she was about to explode.

It was unknown how long it took before she suppressed her anger. She once again made a note of her husband in her little notebook, and then began to think about her situation again.

Although this matter is too disgusting to think about it, it is a fact after all: the Xu family of Tiannan is wealthy and powerful, and the fairy Qiongying is very powerful and beautiful, and she is not inferior to herself in every aspect.

If I have to choose one among everyone, what chances do I have of winning?

Thinking of this, a sense of crisis arose from the bottom of my heart.

"Husband..." Shi Liuli suddenly asked in a low voice, "did you... do that with her?"

"Uh." Chen Guanshui hesitated for a moment before he understood what the other party was saying, "That's not the case."

Taoist practice advocates the preservation of the original yang and yin, which is the same regardless of whether or not the dual cultivation technique is practiced, so Shi Liuli secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

In this case, there is still room for maneuver.

When my husband was playing the role of Kunlun Changgeng, although he and Qiongying became Taoist partners, it seems that their feelings were not very deep now, so even in the secret realm of Yutingmen, they never recognized each other.

As for the other two, Shushan Jiangxiao is not even a Taoist partner, so there is nothing to be afraid of; the one from Fanshengdao is a celestial demon, how could he be with humans, so there is no need to worry too much.

If you want to defeat Kunlun Qiongying, on the one hand you need to make good use of your current first-mover advantage, and on the other hand... should you have a child?

As soon as this idea came out, Shi Liuli felt it was extremely absurd.

After all, there are many monks who form couples, but not many of them eventually choose to have offspring. Basically, they will consider having a child only when their relationship develops to that stage.

My thoughts now are just like those ordinary people in the mortal world who play the ridiculous trick of "a mother's status depends on her son"... I am a cultivator, when did I fall to this point?

Shi Liuli subconsciously wanted to give up this idea, but the threat from Kunlun Qiongying was too great. If he didn't do this, what else could he do?

After being undecided, she instinctively took out six copper coins and cast another divination.

Seeing Shi Liuli start to cheat, Chen Guanshui immediately became nervous and asked cautiously:

"Liuli, what are you calculating?"

Shi Liuli did not answer. What she was actually calculating was whether her husband would value her more if she chose to have offspring.

The result of the hexagram was very clear: my husband was a man who valued love, and the existence of a child would indeed make him lean more towards me...

Wait, this isn't right!

Shi Liuli suddenly realized something: When did this bastard become a sentimental person?

Would a person who values ​​love lie in wait in all the major sects and find a lover in each sect?

She subconsciously felt that there might be something wrong with the calculation, and wanted to calculate it again, but due to the restriction of "one divination cannot be calculated twice", it was impossible to verify it again. She could only repeatedly check whether there was any problem with her interpretation.

...No problem? Could it be that the Heavenly Dao's definition of "a person who values ​​love" is different from that of us cultivators?

After careful consideration, it seems that there is nothing wrong with it.

If he is a heartless person, he should be like most of the heartless monks in Shushan, not taking a Taoist partner, not caring about love, and concentrating on the path of Taoism.

For someone like my husband who makes friends and lovers everywhere, it is not an exaggeration to describe him as "promiscuous", let alone loyal.

Moreover, judging from his past deeds, whether it was accompanying her to support Tiangong Workshop after her father's death, or leaving the Tiangong Treasure Bag to her before leaving, it all showed that her husband was not the kind of person who was profit-driven and only cared about himself.

Thinking of this, Shi Liuli suddenly had another idea and said:

"Where is the Fantian Seal that the Immortal gave you?"

"Here." Chen Guanshui took out the Fantian Seal from his storage bag. "What's wrong?"

"Give it to me." Shi Liuli stretched out his hand to ask for it.

"Well……"

"No?"

"No." Chen Guanshui sighed and handed the Fantian Seal to Shi Liuli.

This magic weapon is powerful, but I have too many powerful attack methods now, and I don't lack them at all. Isn't the Five Thunders Law powerful? It can also defeat evil and exterminate evil spirits! Isn't the Five Elements Divine Light powerful? It can also restrain all things of the five elements!

Even if you only pursue physical attacks, the Huangting Kunwu Sword's powerful force is enough and has a large range.

Physical attacks like the Fantian Seal were basically useless, so he had kept it deep in his storage bag. Now that he was giving it to Lady Liuli for self-defense, it was considered to be making the best use of it.

It's just... I have a feeling that if I give it to Liuli now, I will be hit by it in the future...

I hope I'm just imagining things...

Seeing that he chose to give the Fantian Seal to him, Shi Liuli's heart softened.

As expected, my husband still has feelings for me...it would be even better if he could be with me alone.

Silently crossing out a line in the little notebook in his heart, Shi Liuli explained:

"Although this thing was given to you by an immortal, it has been a treasure of Penglai for generations. Ever since you betrayed the sect... forget it, just leave it with me."

"If you want to use it, just take it." Since the item had already been given, Chen Guanshui was also very straightforward. "It would be best if it can be used for self-defense. If you don't need it, just put it in the room as a decoration."

"Oh?" Shi Liuli showed a playful look, "You have a lot of magic weapons, so you don't need this one, right? Otherwise, give me a few more?"

"Not a lot." Chen Guanshui explained immediately, "My strength is basically in the Five Elements Divine Light, so I don't usually use magic weapons, and I rarely collect them."

That’s true, after all, he even gave me the Tiangong Treasure Bag.

Shi Liuli agreed in his heart, but said:

"Don't you still have the Huangting Kunwu Sword? If you don't need it, give it to me."

"But Liuli, you also have the Purple Extreme Hanyuan Sword." Chen Guanshui flattered, "Besides, my lady's strength is not in swordsmanship, what's the use of this famous sword?"

"I can hang it on the wall of my room as a decoration," said Shi Liuli.

Kunlun Jing just came back from outside and heard the two of them bickering with each other like an old couple. For a moment he felt a little warm, yet a little nervous.

The warmth lies in seeing the two of them reconcile, and the guilt she felt for letting Chen Guanshui help her mend the sky and causing him to become a lonely man is also slightly alleviated.

Nervous... This emotion came out of nowhere, leaving her a little confused.

Thinking that after the sky-repairing project was completed, Chen Guanshui might follow Shi Liuli back to the East China Sea, Kunlun Mirror felt an indescribable sadness.

She really wanted to remind Chen Guanshui: Didn’t you promise to accompany me to travel around the famous mountains and rivers and see all the changes in the world after the sky repair is completed?

After thinking about it carefully, I remembered that it was Chen Guanshui who suggested traveling, and I was still considering whether to go with him, so I didn't reach a consensus with him at all!

Now that his wife has come to him, there will be no problem if Chen Guanshui finally decides to put his family first.

But when that time comes, what should I do?

It's strange to say, I was obviously just a mirror, kept in the palace by the Queen Mother of the West to guard the Yaochi Palace, but why did I later take on the important task of repairing the sky?

Oh, I remember:

I remembered that the Queen finally decided to leave this world. Before she left, she told people that it was because her life span in this world was coming to an end, so she had to go... At that time, I thought, if I could emulate Nuwa and repair the sky, would the Queen not abandon me and stay here alone?

As a divine mirror, it gradually gained wisdom because of its obsession. But if you think about it carefully, it is not so much that it is an obsession to mend the sky, but rather that it is just that it does not want to be left behind.

Kunlun Jing was just daydreaming when he heard Chen Guanshui ask again:

"A Jing, what's the situation outside?"

Although Shi Liuli's expression remained unchanged, her hands were clenched secretly in her sleeves. She was also very upset about her husband being concerned about other women.

"The fight is going on fiercely." Kunlun Mirror replied, "The demon is too powerful. Qiongying and Jiangxiao are simply unable to defeat him. They are suppressed by the demon and can only protect themselves."

Hearing "that devil is too powerful", Chen Guanshui guessed that it was Witch Jiang who came again, and for a moment he felt a little uneasy.

When he heard "you can only protect yourself", he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

I don't expect Junior Sister Xu and Senior Sister An to be able to push back Witch Jiang, I just hope they can entangle each other and not disrupt the smelting of the Sky-Budding Stone.

Otherwise, when they come down and face off against Shi Liuli... all conflicts will erupt. Even if the king of heaven comes, he won't be able to protect himself.

"Continue scanning." Chen Guanshui urged her, "If there is any situation, notify me as soon as possible."

"Notify you?" Shi Liuli suddenly said, "If something really happens and you know about it, what should you do?"

"We can't let them fight any further." Chen Guanshui replied.

"I understand." Shi Liuli nodded, "Does my husband plan to confess to them as well?"

Chen Guanshui remained silent.

Kunlun Jing told Shi Liuli the whole story because she was neither as arrogant as Xu Yinglian, nor as willful as An Zhisu, nor as overbearing as Jiang Li'an. She was the most rational and the most compromising of all women.

But if I confess to these three, let alone Junior Sister Xu, An Zhisu would probably draw his sword and chop me, and Jiang Li'an would most likely eat me alive.

Thinking of this, Chen Guanshui started to have a headache again.

Seeing his embarrassed expression, Shi Liuli also said at the right time:

"From what I've seen, if you choose to confess to them, things will definitely get out of control."

"Indeed." Kunlun Mirror echoed, "I think it's better to talk about this kind of thing separately."

What this means is that you let Shi Liuli stand by and tell other women, "I actually have another wife outside, and she is standing in front of you right now." How could this not cause an uproar?

"That's not the point." Shi Liuli frowned and said, "The key is that you have to let them know that the old enemy who was fighting for life and death just a moment ago actually has the identity of a love rival... This is not something that can make people calm down."

"Indeed." Kunlun Jing asked curiously, "Fellow Daoist Dongyou, how did you calm down?"

Shi Liuli's face froze. If you can't speak, can you learn to speak before you interrupt?

"No matter what." She ignored Kunlun Jing's question and insisted, "Let's try to avoid this from happening."

"The question is not whether I want to do it or not, but whether they will." Seeing that the two were thinking about him, Chen Guanshui was also somewhat moved, and simply said frankly, "Once they decide the winner, it is only a matter of time before they come to investigate."

"Then move." Shi Liuli finally revealed his true intention, "Move to another place. There is more than one underground fire."

Transfer...Chen Guanshui and Kunlun Jing both began to think about this issue seriously.

The battle outside was earth-shattering, and it was hard to say how long this balance would last. As soon as the winner was decided, there would be a risk of being discovered here, so moving as soon as possible seemed to be a good strategy.

But how to transfer it?

"Don't you have the Five Elements Divine Light?" Shi Liuli said quickly, "Start digging parallel to the ground fire route from here. Every time you advance a certain distance, remember to seal the back."

"Okay." Chen Guanshui was not the type to be fussy, so he quickly agreed.

So the three of them took the fragments of the Sky-Bulding Stone and began to move their position.

On the seabed, the other three were unaware that someone had kidnapped their husband and escaped, and they were just killing people furiously.

Witch Jiang began to admire An Zhisu a little. Although this Shushan rough man seemed stupid, his fighting will was rare in the world.

Being able to fight with me for several hours without revealing even a single flaw is something that ordinary cultivators simply cannot do.

Looking at Xu Yinglian in the distance, he kept jumping and moving, never willing to stay in one place for more than two breaths. At the same time, he almost continuously used Taoist magic to restrain him, and cooperated with An Zhisu in skillful offense and defense.

When An Zhisu started to attack, she withdrew her attack and recovered her true energy; when An Zhisu chose to retreat, she took action to restrain him.

Since the two of them did not communicate through secret telepathy, it can be seen that each other's ability and awareness of reading the battle situation has reached an outstanding level.

But for Witch Jiang, this meant that it was almost impossible for her to capture the two men quickly - if she really wanted to fight to the death, she could only wait until the two men had finished all the pills they carried with them.

For the immortal demons, fighting a war of attrition is commonplace. For example, those monks who have gone astray on Bingyan Island in the South China Sea, thousands of years have passed, and the demons in their bodies are still fighting against them, right?

But Witch Jiang was missing her husband terribly at this time, and had no interest in continuing to waste time with the two little girls, so she took advantage of an opportunity when the two were cooperating and suddenly turned into black mist and slipped away.

An Zhisu did not pursue him upon seeing this, but quickly adjusted his true energy while transmitting a message into the secret passage in the direction of Xu Yinglian:

"To chase, or not to chase?"

Xu Yinglian quickly replied:

"Last time she said she wanted to look for Wei Dongliu. I think it might be related to Chang Geng, Qing Heng and the others."

An Zhisu understood immediately: In other words, as long as he followed this devil, he would probably be able to find Qingheng's location.

So she did not hesitate, and immediately merged herself with the sword, rushing after the black fog.
