CHAPTER 43: CHAPTER 43: PRINCIPAL WIFE SUN YAZHU

Niu Zhan was dumbfounded; the power of the Ten Great Saintesses was truly terrifying. He had a hunch that even if the person they collectively attacked earlier was a Martial Emperor, he might still meet his end today.

After the ten Saintesses dealt with Yun Feng and the others, they all walked toward Xia Feng.

"Husband, I helped you solve a big problem again. You should marry me now, right?"

The Celestial Fox Saintess, eyes full of allure, approached Xia Feng boldly.

Xia Feng: "..."

The other women, seeing this, also refused to be outdone and stepped forward: "Husband, we also made an effort, and I put in the most effort. If you marry, it should be me first!"

"You put in more effort? If I hadn’t broken their defensive formation just now, you wouldn’t have even gotten in!" The Celestial Talisman Saintess, Li Shiqing, said unhappily.

"Didn’t I also just..."

The ten women were chirping endlessly, making Xia Feng feel a headache, with stars nearly forming above his head.

But he really didn’t dare speak; these women were all fierce, and he couldn’t afford to offend any of them.

"Um..."

At this moment, Niu Zhan stepped forward and helped Xia Feng out.

"All of you truly live up to the name of Saintesses; your powers are fearsome. Thanks to your help this time, otherwise, our Bull Subduing Sect might have perished."

"No need for thanks. You helped Husband, so we should thank you." The Ten Great Saintesses responded.

"Sect Leader Niu, as the saying goes, it’s easy to add to a success, but hard to deliver timely help. I must thank Sect Leader Niu for his timely support."

Xia Feng stepped forward and cupped his hand, his gaze sincere.

Niu Zhan chuckled and waved it off, quickly expressing that it was nothing.

But inside, he was overjoyed. Xia Feng now was quite popular; not only did the Ten Great Saintesses favor him, but his incredible cultivation speed guaranteed he would become a force to be reckoned with in the Great Xia Empire in the future.

Building goodwill with a future superpower would be hugely beneficial for the development of the Bull Subduing Sect.

With the matter resolved, Sect Leader Niu led his people back to the Bull Subduing Sect, and Xia Feng’s family also returned to the City Lord’s Mansion.

In the spacious hall of the City Lord’s Mansion, the Ten Great Saintesses gathered together, surrounding Xia Feng in the middle, the fragrance almost making him lightheaded.

"Almost late; if those shameless scoundrels hadn’t stopped us, we would have arrived earlier."

The Celestial Fox Saintess, Yu Siya, picked up a lychee from the table and popped it into her mouth, "Luckily we were in time to prevent Husband from being taken advantage of by that old guy."

"Those people just now were strong Martial Venerable; what happened after we left? How did Husband provoke such powerful figures?"

"I noticed their secret techniques seemed like the Cloud Elephant Technique from the Cloud Elephant Sect, a Top Grade Sect far away."

The Extreme Ice Saintess turned to Xia Feng. They had left for five days, how did Xia Feng end up attracting so many Martial Venerables?

They most wanted to uncover this, though other matters, such as Xia Feng’s sudden rise to the Martial Venerable realm, the Five Great Saintesses of Northern Border didn’t even mention, as if it was naturally expected.

"The story begins at Cloud Mountain..."

After contemplating for a moment, Xia Feng went on to explain everything that happened after Cloud Mountain to the five Saintesses.

"So that’s how it is..." The five Saintesses of Northern Border realized.

Then, led by the Celestial Fox Saintess, they spoke to the Five Great Saintesses of the South Border: "Thank you, sisters for this time. We misunderstood you when we arrived; truly sorry."

"Had you not arrived in time, Husband might have been harmed at Cloud Mountain." The Extreme Ice Saintess, Lin Wanqing, expressed regret.

"And when people from the Cloud Elephant Sect attacked, you helped Husband fend off the other five Elders, saving Husband twice in total..." The Celestial Sword Saintess, Li Qingxue, tightly clenched her fists, as if blaming herself for not being there at the time.

"Alright, alright, it’s all in the past, why don’t we talk about something else?"

At this moment, the Celestial Pill Saintess, Sun Yazhu, blinked her eyes and stepped forward, smiling: "Since all the sisters are here, and we’re all going to marry Husband, shouldn’t we decide the hierarchy?"

The women were momentarily stunned, not expecting Sun Yazhu to bring up the matter at this moment.

"Husband cultivates very quickly; it seems the Top Grade Talent Pill I gifted earlier has been quite effective."

Sun Yazhu chuckled, raising her eyebrows before the women, deliberately dragging out the words ’Top Grade Talent Pill’.

Then, she looked around with a smile, her pride evident.

"So, Husband broke through to the Martial Venerable realm after taking Yazhu’s Top Grade Talent Pill?" Yu Siya’s eyes widened slightly.

A Top Grade Talent Pill was something even they, as Saintesses, couldn’t easily obtain; only someone like Sun Yazhu, successor of the Celestial Pill Sacred Land, could acquire it.

"I didn’t expect Yazhu to gift Husband a Top Grade Talent Pill, no wonder Husband’s cultivation speed increased so dramatically." The Li Huo Saintess, Zhao Lingxuan, lightly bit her red lips and sighed, helpless: "If not for your elixir, Husband wouldn’t have broken through to Martial Venerable, facing the Cloud Elephant Sect, he wouldn’t last until we arrived, so it seems you will be the main wife."

The other Saintesses, though somewhat unwilling, had to admit that in terms of dowry, they couldn’t compete.

Thus, they all acknowledged Sun Yazhu as the main wife.

While Xia Feng’s mouth was twitching uncontrollably.

He, the person involved, hadn’t spoken; yet these women had already decided who his main wife would be. This was somewhat out of line!

"You haven’t even asked me yet..."

Xia Feng sighed, looking at the women helplessly.

Upon hearing this, the Celestial Pill Saintess, Sun Yazhu’s large eyes immediately welled up, she pitifully drew near Xia Feng, almost crying.

"Husband, don’t you like Yazhu? Is Yazhu unworthy of being your main wife?"

Looking at the girl before him, Xia Feng felt a surge of guilt.

If he uttered a single ’no’, the beauty before him would transform into a flood of tears.

"No, no..." Xia Feng quickly waved his hand.

"That’s right!" Sun Yazhu, wiping her tears, managed a lively smile, embracing Xia Feng’s neck, gently saying: "From today, I’m your main wife, and you owe me a marriage, don’t forget!"

"Not only hers, but ours too!" The remaining nine Saintesses immediately protested, surrounding Xia Feng.

For a moment, the surrounding atmosphere nearly suffocated Xia Feng.

"Okay, okay... I have a favor to ask of you."

Finally catching his breath, Xia Feng spoke up.

"Husband, just say it, whatever we can do, we will never decline!" The ten Saintesses agreed obediently.

"After this battle, I realized my weaknesses are quite significant." Xia Feng contemplated, then continued, "The Martial Techniques I possess are few; in battle, once they’re seen through, I get led around by others."

"The cultivation technique from Bull Subduing Sect has reached its bottleneck, no way to further refine it. You all have sharp eyes, so I want to ask how to best proceed with my cultivation journey."
