Chapter 64: New Rewards!
"Young Master..."
Lin Fei's almond-shaped eyes couldn't meet Xiao Cang's gaze. She turned her face to the side, attempting to avoid his eyes.
But in the next moment, Xiao Cang pinched her chin, making her turn back.
"No matter how you put it, it seems like you and Xue Mei were secretly discussing whether to marry me?" Xiao Cang stared directly into Lin Fei's eyes, his gaze aggressive.
"Well..."
Lin Fei didn't know how to explain. But as she and Xiao Cang locked eyes, her pretty face became even more flushed.
"Since that's the case, let's do the deed."
Xiao Cang approached Lin Fei's charming face, his warm breath blowing on her cheeks.
Thump! Thump!
Lin Fei's heartbeat accelerated, and she shyly lowered her neck.
"Young Master..."
"Isn't this inappropriate..."
Indeed, she had thought about becoming Xiao Cang's concubine, considering his handsome appearance and exceptional talent. But no matter how she thought about it, they had only known each other for less than a day!
However, Xiao Cang couldn't be bothered with so much. He embraced Lin Fei's slender waist, lifted her like a princess, walked to the bedside, and set her down.
"Young Master..."
Lin Fei instinctively wanted to lean back, but Xiao Cang grabbed her ankle.
Ignoring her protests, Xiao Cang directly removed her shoes and socks, revealing a pair of delicate and tiny jade-like feet.
Lin Fei's face turned crimson to her neck.
But this was just the beginning.
Xiao Cang found her purple robe too cumbersome with just a glance, so he ignited a flame at his fingertips. In an instant, he skillfully burned the robe to ashes.
"Ah, Young Master!"
Lin Fei exclaimed as her arms instinctively shielded her front.
But it was too late.
Xiao Cang had already seen her fair and exquisite body.
Xiao Cang's eyes suddenly became intensely heated.
This figure... extraordinary! Long and supple legs, a slender waist that could be held with one hand, and those two incredibly spectacular snowy peaks!
More magnificent than he had anticipated! Even surpassing Yun Yun and Princess Ya!
Who would have thought that this was the figure of a side character?
Truly a rare find!
"Young Master, you, you, you..."
Lin Fei, suddenly stripped bare, hurriedly hid under the blanket, curled up in the corner of the bed, revealing only her blushing face and the neck covered in a rosy hue.
Confused and at a loss, she couldn't even speak.
"What's wrong? Didn't you want to marry this Young Master?"
Xiao Cang, with a playful smile on his lips, climbed onto the bed, approaching Lin Fei.
"But we just... um..."
Before Lin Fei could finish her sentence, Xiao Cang kissed her.
She looked at the close-up Xiao Cang, determination flashing in her eyes.
Fine!
If it's destined to be, let it be!
Thus, a pair of jade-like arms stretched out from under the blanket, wrapping around Xiao Cang's neck.
Xiao Cang lifted the blanket, getting in.
...
...
Two hours later, in the evening after the rain had stopped.
"Young Master..."
Lin Fei nestled in Xiao Cang's arms, her eyes tender.
In addition to satisfaction, her beautiful eyes also showed a sense of relief.
Since the rice had already been cooked, she didn't have to worry about how to marry Xiao Cang anymore.
"Still calling me 'Young Master'?"
Xiao Cang lay next to Lin Fei, his right hand resting on a certain place.
"Husband..." Lin Fei immediately nodded obediently.
"That's better."
Xiao Cang smiled contentedly.
"Come, get up and have a cup of celebratory wine." Xiao Cang carried Lin Fei's soft body to the table, poured two cups of wine, and handed one to Lin Fei.
Excitement flashed in Lin Fei's almond eyes.
Celebratory wine...
[T/N: A Chinese tradition after Marriage ]
Though sudden, the sudden ritual made her feel unexpectedly secure.
[Ding!]
[Congratulations to the host for a joyous union, rewards are being distributed!]
[Congratulations to the host for gaining:]
[Cultivation Reward: One-star Increase in Dou Huang cultivation !]
Oh...
Is that it?
Just a one-star increase in Dou Huang cultivation level as a reward?
What about the rest?
Shouldn't there be a martial art or combat technique?
Xiao Cang felt a sudden jolt, understanding the reason for this.
It was likely because Lin Fei was indeed just a side character, triggering fewer rewards.
Unlike main characters like Xun'er, who triggered more rewards.
Damn!
Well, a one-star increase in Dou Huang cultivation level was not bad.
I should work harder on having children.
Thinking like this, Xiao Cang took out a pregnancy pill.
"Husband, what's this?" Lin Fei asked curiously.
"Pregnancy pill."
Xiao Cang smiled faintly, fed Lin Fei the pill, then held her delicate body and returned to the bed, making efforts to multiply.
...
Outside the room,
Xue Mei gazed quietly in the direction of Xiao Cang's room.
The faint sounds emanating from the room made her realize that Lin Fei had already succeeded.
In truth, she regretted her move after "setting up" Lin Fei. Wasn't she just creating an opportunity for Lin Fei out of thin air?
So she paused for a moment.
Unexpectedly, just over a dozen breaths later, flirtatious voices could be heard from the room.
This infuriated her.
Although she had a calmer mindset compared to Lin Fei, their thoughts on this matter were aligned.
She just didn't expect Lin Fei to seize the opportunity first.
"Hmph! Clever, Lin Fei. I don't believe you can catch the eye of Young Master Xiao, and I can't?" Xue Mei clenched her fist, thinking indignantly.
...
On the other side, at the entrance of the Alchemist Guild,
A man in the attire of the He family's servant approached.
"Please announce that I am here on behalf of our Young Master to collect the Soul-Nether Grass. This is the price our Young Master agreed upon." The man presented a low-level storage ring.
"Wait a moment."
The guard at the entrance, in charge of reception, dared not be negligent and quickly went to handle the matter.
After a moment, the guard returned.
"Sorry, our guild leader said the Soul-Nether Grass is no longer available. You can advise your Young Master to look elsewhere."
"What?!"
The man's face changed, becoming unsightly.
"But this was the medicine our Young Master agreed upon with Guild Leader Frank. How could it suddenly be unavailable?!"
"We have no comment on that. If you want to know, ask our guild leader. Please leave."
The guard was not polite.
"You... Hmph!"
The man snorted, waving his sleeve as he left.
On the top floor of the guild,
"With this, I am afraid He Qian will hold a grudge against our guild," Frank said, watching the He family's people leave, a faint expression on his face.
"Hmph, so what?"
Master Otto disdainfully snorted.
"Doesn't the He family just have a four-star Dou Wang? Although their strength can rank among the top hundred in the empire, it's not enough to impress our Alchemist Guild. Moreover, the Soul-Nether Grass hasn't been sold to him yet. It was just a verbal reservation."
"True. I hope that hot-tempered, eccentric guy won't do anything out of line. Otherwise, he'll only harm himself and the He family," Frank said, looking in the direction of the He family.
