CHAPTER 191: CHAPTER 187: THE FIFTH FAMOUS ARTIFACT

Chen Xuan slowly sat beside her, removing the bright red veil from her head, revealing her blushing face, the flush spreading all the way to her neck.

Then he placed her small hand in his own.

He touched it!

All sweaty!

"What? So nervous? Am I some man-eating demon beast?"

"Pfft!"

Ye Jincen immediately burst into laughter, her nervousness vanishing instantly.

"Laugh more, I like it!"

"Mm!"

Ye Jincen nodded slightly, her smile growing even more joyful.

"Madam, it’s late, time to rest."

"Mm!"

Slight rustling sounds of clothes being removed could be heard.

Piece by piece...

Ye Jincen lowered her head, her breathing becoming rapid.

Chen Xuan gently picked her up, tenderly laying her on the bed, just as he was about to proceed to the next step.

"The candle..."

Ye Jincen buried her head under the quilt, her voice trembling slightly.

"Hehe!"

Chen Xuan chuckled softly but refused her request, "It’s better with the lights on, that way your husband can see clearly!"

Then, without further ado, he swiftly undressed and slipped into the bed.

"Here I come!"

He didn’t forget to remind her, after all, even though he was experienced, it was Ye Jincen’s first time, so he needed to be considerate.

Ye Jincen tightly shut her eyes, her long eyelashes trembling incessantly, showing just how nervous she was.

The battle began!

A thin barrier!

A trace of pain appeared between Ye Jincen’s brows, but adhering to the philosophy of short pain is better than long pain, Chen Xuan applied slight force, and suddenly, it was smooth sailing.

"Huff, huff, huff—"

In the room, there was only the sound of rapid breathing and the creaks of a bed reaching its peak.

....

Morning!

"[Rewarded 3000 skill points, with Famous Spring Water bonus of 1500 points]"

Chen Xuan’s eyes snapped open.

He looked at a series of messages at the corner of his eye.

"Famous Spring Water – Wit!"

Ye Jincen also possessed Famous Spring Water.

And now this Telepathy, another Divine Technique gained!

"Perceive all obstacles!"

Chen Xuan muttered in his heart, wasn’t this somewhat like Ye Jincen’s ability?

"System!"

He called out in his heart.

[Name: Chen Xuan]

[Lifespan: 19/1400]

[Famous Spring Water: Spring Water (Skill Points Bonus 50%), Purity (Cultivation Technique, martial skill comprehension difficulty decreased by 50%), Ghostly, Spiral, Wit]

[Divine Techniques: Evolution (Great Mastery), Telepathy (Mastery), Divine Foot Technique (Mastery (10200/120000))]

[Fortune: 10 (Weakened 5)]

...

"Still at Telepathy mastery level!"

His gaze immediately locked onto the Famous Spring Water section.

Though its use wasn’t fully clarified yet, the system only provided a bit of explanation, and more exploration was needed.

However,

After acquiring another Famous Spring Water, Spring Water and Purity both upgraded.

Which means future cultivation speeds would become faster.

Originally, upon reaching the Fifth Layer of Purity, the cultivation speed plummeted, now with the reduced difficulty of cultivation, the corresponding cultivation speed would also increase significantly.

He glanced down at the lovely figure in his arms, still sound asleep.

Last night, Chen Xuan really wore her out.

Such a small build.

"Beast!"

Even in his heart, he couldn’t help but curse.

...

In the hall of the rear courtyard of Chen Mansion.

With Ye Jincen’s help, Chen Xuan put on his clothes, though he couldn’t help but grumble a little, she really wasn’t good at this.

She was all flustered buttoning up the clothes.

After finally getting dressed, Ye Jincen was truly covered in sweat.

"Congratulations to the husband, congratulations to Little Sister Ye!"

A few women, upon seeing the two, congratulated them simultaneously.

"Hahaha..."

Chen Xuan was very pleased, naturally feeling quite proud of himself, and he was very satisfied with these women of his.

Because the smiles on their faces, and those words of congratulations, were all genuinely from the heart.

"Congratulations to you too, you all have gained a good little sister!"

"Indeed!"

Su Yun quickly came over, taking Ye Jincen’s hand, "Come, sister, from now on, we are truly sisters. Come, sit down and have breakfast! That’s also a tradition of our Chen Mansion!"

After Chen Xuan took his seat, the women successively sat down.

Because Ye Jincen was newly married, today it was only natural for her to sit beside Chen Xuan, which was also arranged by Su Wanqiu.

"Eat up, though the variety might not be as plentiful as at your home, Wanqiu’s cooking skills are no less than those of top chefs."

Chen Xuan said.

After breakfast, Chen Xuan took Ye Jincen onto the carriage and headed to the City Lord’s Mansion.

Returning to the family home!

"Are you getting used to it?"

In the carriage, Chen Xuan gently stroked Ye Jincen’s hair bun and asked softly.

"Very much! The sisters are all wonderful, I really like them."

In the past, Ye Yilan also had many women, although he treated them all well, they used many means to earn Ye Yilan’s favor.

Therefore, Ye Jincen did not like them very much.

However, with these women around Chen Xuan, there was none of that scheming and plotting; they got along very harmoniously.

Being able to read minds, she could sense that these sisters were genuinely good to her, especially Su Wanqiu, who truly treated her well.

Ye Jincen had a deep respect for her from the bottom of her heart.

"That’s good then!"

...

Earlier this morning, Ye Yilan got up very early, wearing a red brocade robe, with a constant smile on his face.

So was Xuan Er!

The two sat in the hall, quietly waiting for the two newlyweds.

"Why haven’t they arrived yet? What time is it now? They didn’t oversleep, did they?"

Ye Yilan was feeling a bit anxious, wanting to see them right away.

"Hey, old Er, do you think I should prepare a big mansion for them, since Chen Xuan’s mansion is a bit small now!"

"Um... let me think..."

Speaking to himself non-stop, at this moment he was not a Mansion Master, just a father!

A good father thinking of everything for his daughter’s sake!

"Enough, just don’t worry about their matters! Big or small, as long as they are happy, you shouldn’t interfere!"

Xuan Er glared at him.

"I was just worried that his mansion was too small and uncomfortable to live in, is that wrong?"

Ye Yilan felt very aggrieved, could this be wrong too!

At this moment, Feng Zheng came in with somewhat of a flurry, smiling as he said, "Lord Mansion Master, the son-in-law and young lady have arrived!"

In an instant,

both Ye Yilan and Xuan Er quickly composed themselves, stretching their necks to look outside.

Moments later,

they saw Chen Xuan slowly walk in holding Ye Jincen’s hand.

"Greetings, Father, greetings, Uncle Xuan!"

Ye Jincen gave each of them a deep bow.

Before meeting Chen Xuan, they were the two men who doted on her the most, now there was one more.

Seeing the smile on her face, both Ye Yilan and Xuan Er’s eyes couldn’t help but become moist.

Only they knew how much that matter had affected her.

Over these years, it was indeed very rare to see a smile on her face.

Ye Yilan was truly extremely grateful to Chen Xuan.

"Greetings, Father-in-law, greetings...."

"Today, you should also call me Uncle Xuan!" Xuan Er hurriedly interjected.

Today, in the capacity of being from Ye Jincen’s family, he wanted even more to hear Chen Xuan call him Uncle Xuan.

"Greetings, Uncle Xuan!"

"Good, good, good!" Xuan Er nodded repeatedly, at this moment, the only worry in his heart was finally gone.

Subsequently, the two began to walk over slowly.

First, it was Ye Yilan, earnestly taking out a piece of emerald green jade pendant from his chest, rubbing it continuously in his hand.

Upon seeing this jade pendant, Ye Jincen immediately became excited.

"Father, is this...."

"Yes, this is the only thing your mother left behind, I originally wanted to keep it as a remembrance for myself, but after thinking it over last night, I decided to give it to you!"

With reluctance, he placed it into her hand, sternly instructing, "Take good care of it, pass it on in the future!"

"Yes, Father, your daughter will take good care of it."

Ye Jincen carefully placed the jade pendant into her chest.

At that moment, Ye Yilan looked at Chen Xuan, "You are now at the Five Layers of Purity, I have nothing good to give you!"

"Haha, Father-in-law has already given me the best, hasn’t he?"

"Hahaha....."

Ye Yilan suddenly burst out laughing, feeling very happy, "Yes, that’s true!"

At this moment, Ye Jincen couldn’t help but look at Chen Xuan, as this was the first time he had said something like this, not even last night did he say it.

At this moment,

there appeared a white inner armor in Xuan Er’s hand, exuding a faint spiritual power.

He handed it to Ye Jincen, "This was something I got by chance, then further refined by adding some materials myself, it can withstand a full blow of the first grade, and I prepared it early on, finally, I can give it to you today."

For this piece of inner armor, Xuan Er had spent nearly everything.

It was prepared for Ye Jincen’s grand festive day.

"Thank you, Uncle Xuan!"

"Your happiness means more than anything!" Xuan Er’s face showed a paternal smile, though he had no offspring of his own, Ye Jincen was like a daughter to him.

"As for you, there’s nothing left! Besides, you don’t really lack anything!"

Last night he also thought about what to give to Chen Xuan, but no matter how he thought, he had nothing!

Not because he was stingy!

It was because this kid was too powerful, there was nothing he could use, so he simply didn’t give anything.

"Master has already given plenty, without you, there wouldn’t be the me of today!"

"Hahaha...."

Just like Ye Yilan earlier, Xuan Er also burst into hearty laughter.

Indeed, today’s Chen Xuan was quite skillful with words.

"Looks like this old man is a bit late!"

Just as they were all basking in this harmonious atmosphere, an aged voice rang out from the air, breaking the mood.

In an instant,

both Chen Xuan, Ye Yilan and others couldn’t help but furrow their brows.

Moments later, a figure appeared before the entrance of the hall.

Qi Lin!

With a red box in his right hand, he smiled looking at the four of them.
