Chapter Forty-Five: As Husband



Qi Yu quickly returned after tidying up and whispered, "My wife, you've just recovered from a serious illness, so please don't talk so as not to delay your treatment. I'll stay by your side."

After the man finished speaking, he walked to the bedside, gently took her hand and kneaded it lightly, "Wife, thankfully you are alright."

When Li Xiaoxiao woke up, she felt incredibly light, even experiencing a breakthrough, and her five senses were more acute.

"Husband, I'm alright." After saying this, Li Xiao struggled to get up, and Qi Yu hurriedly helped her up.

The beggar probably didn't deceive her; in fact, she benefited from the misfortune and made further progress in her cultivation. However, this was only the beginning.

Whether there is cultivation of immortality or ways to improve martial arts on this continent is something that people are very interested in.

At this moment, a burning fighting spirit ignited in Li Xiaoxiao's heart. Perhaps after successfully cultivating, she could truly fly through the air, or perhaps she could truly control spiritual power.

Unfortunately, the original book did not explain the matter of cultivating immortality in detail. At the time, I just thought it was fun to read the novel and did not see the ending.

"My lord, are there any cases of people successfully cultivating immortality?"

As Li Xiaoxiao got out of bed and walked, she asked questions, her eyes filled with fervor.

Qi Yu no longer concealed anything and explained in detail, "Yes, but only a very small number of people have successfully cultivated. Among them is a famous woman named Xuan Yuanqiong, who was the only one to enter the immortal barrier, cultivate, and ascend to immortality."

"In the thousands of years of history on the mainland, there have been no other cases of successful cultivation. Cultivation of immortality inevitably involves a tribulation of lightning. Most people will be killed by the Heavenly Dao after reaching a certain level. As long as you learn to control spiritual energy, the tribulation of lightning will come and you will die directly."

Qi Yu spoke as if he were recounting a myth.

This further piqued Li Xiaoxiao's curiosity. If this continent truly had a Heavenly Dao controlling it, then how did Ye Linghua cultivate?

He is definitely not simple. In the original book, he created several clones that looked exactly like him, each serving as a national advisor in a different country and controlling that country.

This led to frequent wars between nations, innocent bloodshed, increased taxes, and pampered dukes and ministers.

"Okay, I think I understand."

Li Xiaoxiao stopped asking questions and, with Qi Yu's help, followed him out of the room. The severed hand was now hanging on her arm, and the fingers underneath could move slightly.

After they went outside, Chen Xueqing hurriedly came up to them, "Master, are you feeling better? There are many merchants outside requesting to see you, saying they want to sign contracts for paper manufacturing orders."

Li Xiaoxiao frowned slightly after hearing this. "What do you mean by that? If you want to sign a business contract, you should ask your husband to sign it. Why contact me?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Xueqing's face immediately darkened, her eyes darting around as she tried to come up with new excuses. How could she dare to say that the businessmen outside looked down on Qi Yu? Now, the matter of Qi Yu's disdain had become the talk of the town.

Outsiders even gave her the nickname "Miss Qi," but she dared not reveal a single word of these rumors.

“My lord, now that your reputation is even greater, the merchants also want some protection.” After thinking for a moment, Chen Xueqing finally came up with a good explanation.

Li Xiaoxiao raised an eyebrow and said, "Fine, these people don't trust Qi Yu anyway. Tell them the contract will be signed with my husband. If they're unwilling, they don't need to come to me to talk." With a wave of her hand, she made the decision directly, and Chen Xueqing said no more.

It was exceptionally warm outside. Li Xiaoxiao walked in the sunlight. In the corner of the yard, Bai Yi and Bai Han were practicing horse stance. She noticed the two children at a glance.

Bai Yi, in particular, had her clear little face covered in sweat, yet she stubbornly continued practicing her basic skills.

Intrigued, Li Xiaoxiao walked over to Bai Yi's side and said, "Ayi, are you working hard today too? Let me see your muscles."

After listening, Bai Yi rolled up her sleeves to show her physical condition. Li Xiaoxiao was amazed and didn't expect Bai Yi to actually be able to persevere.

"Your physical training is quite good. If you can keep it up, I will teach you a martial art called Krav Maga."

Bai Yi's previously calm face immediately lit up with light. "Thank you, Master."

Bai Han, who was standing next to her, joined in the commotion, saying, "Sister Li, I want to learn Krav Maga too!"

She then looked at Bai Han's physique. Although not as good as Bai Yi's, he was still well-trained. "Okay."

After talking to the two sisters, the sisters living in the buildings behind also came to Li Xiaoxiao's side in groups, all dressed in their finest clothes.

"My lady, you seem to be feeling better today. The ladies have brought some snacks, so please don't refuse them." Several beautiful women gathered around, and Qi Yu helped her up, warning, "Don't get too close to my lady. She has just recovered, and it wouldn't be good if she bumped or fell."

After Qi Yu finished speaking, the sisters' enthusiasm subsided somewhat.

Chen Xueqing glanced at Rizhao's shadow and said, "Master Qi, it's getting late. These merchants are probably getting impatient. Would you like to come with me to Yunli County to meet with them?"

Qi Yu was a little worried, so Li Xiaoxiao immediately took her hand off Qi Yu's body and said, "Husband, go ahead. I'm fine now and can't be hurt."

"Master Qi, let's go. Those merchants probably won't have to wait much longer. Your business module is currently being activated."

Qi Yu hesitated for a long time before going to the county town with Chen Xueqing. After the man left, the sisters began to complain.

He Chunying was the first to speak out, and said indignantly, "Master, Qi Yu is a eunuch, so why are you so good to him? Now that you are a virgin, it wouldn't be a bad idea to find a powerful and influential husband."

Shan Yunfang added, "All those businessmen outside want to marry you, Master, so why do they all choose Master Qi? You clearly have better options."
