Chapter 1201: Spirit Qi Transfer, Transformations of Longshe Shan

Faced with Chen Chuyang's boisterous laughter, Shang Hongxue's indifferent, affectionate smile contrasted sharply with Shang Hongchen's reaction—she hid under the covers, afraid to show her face, and hearing the laughter she shrank back even further, not daring to reveal a thing.

Like a startled bird, she dared not face the two of them; seeing this, Shang Hongxue's smile grew richer as she teased, "Brother Chuyang, look—Shang Hongchen seems shy, she hasn't accepted it yet; do you want to give her a proper lesson?"

"My sister is putting on airs now, acting all proud and coy—she hasn't been like this these past few days; she's usually the one who takes the initiative."

She deliberately raised her voice just to tease this sister, to make her put on an act, to make her arrogant.

At a time like this, what are you pretending for?

She loves seeing Shang Hongchen like this—this sister always favors that look, no matter the occasion; this time, instead of tearing apart her false facade and exposing her true self, frankly, Shang Hongxue never expected that although Shang Hongchen appears restrained and stern on the surface, in bed she is quite another person.

Previously, Shang Hongxue thought Brother Chuyang was deceiving her, making things up, but after seeing him in person she realized it was all true.

Brother Chuyang's words were rather conservative, but Shang Hongchen took the initiative, went wild, making Shang Hongxue feel inadequate—no wonder she's her sister; in any aspect she refuses to admit defeat, and even if she loses she forces herself to persist, to grit her teeth.

Just this point is enough to make a man happy; conquering a woman like this is a pleasure any man would feel.

"Brother Chuyang, I think you ought to give her a proper lesson; if you don't, she won't know who's the head of the household."

"Go on, Brother Chuyang."

Shang Hongxue was still up to no good, wanting Chen Chuyang to continue humiliating her sister, to tear off her last shred of modesty; Chen Chuyang obliged, going to Shang Hongchen's side, and the figure under the blanket trembled even more violently.

Chen Chuyang laughed and said, "Madam, you seem rather afraid, don't you?"

Shang Hongchen could no longer bear it; she lifted her head, glared fiercely at Shang Hongxue, and said, "Shang Hongxue, can't you just shut up? Stop tormenting me—haven't these past days been enough? Do you believe I won't be polite with you?"

"Oh dear, I'm so scared—Shang Hongchen, are you threatening me now?" Shang Hongxue's smile grew richer; she fears nothing more than being threatened, and even if it's her own older sister, she still wouldn't be afraid.

Seeing her tactics fail to intimidate Shang Hongxue—instead they only provoked her sister—and watching Shang Hongxue approach, Shang Hongchen was frightened and quickly amended: "Wait, Hongxue, I was wrong, I misspoke; I meant we are sisters—how could we fight each other?"

"We should help each other, not fight internally, thereby giving some man an advantage."

While speaking, she still glanced at Chen Chuyang; their internal strife only benefits Chen Chuyang.

We can't let that happen—letting an outsider benefit is unacceptable.

Shang Hongxue smiled narrowly and said, "What's wrong with benefiting our husband? He's our man; thanks to him we've achieved our current cultivation, and besides, we've borne his children—what's there to be shy about?"

"Brother Chuyang, go on—don't be polite with her; this woman won't learn unless she gets a proper lesson."

Shang Hongchen's attitude is arrogant; she must be given a proper lesson, and the fact that she's still so defiant shows the previous discipline wasn't enough.

We must discipline her thoroughly in one go, so she submits completely; only then will it work.

Only then did she realize who the mistress of the household is, who truly heads the family.

The two of them said nothing, leaving her no chance to speak; authority must be established immediately, not let Shang Hongchen run wild—if there's a first time, there will be a second, and this time she secretly caused trouble, so next time will be the same.

Shang Hongchen naturally couldn't just watch this happen; she instantly weakened, plaintively saying, "Husband, I'm exhausted; may I rest a while?"

Her eyes held much emotion—more grievance, coquettishness, and weakness.

At this moment Shang Hongchen is no longer the tough woman she was, but another Shang Hongxue.

This move is truly a killer; seeing it, Shang Hongxue's mouth twitched and she felt utterly unwell.

"Shang Hongchen, you actually stole my technique."

Shang Hongchen lifted her head, smiled, and said, "What's 'your technique'? If I use it, it's mine. Shang Hongxue, you think you can use our husband to punish me—impossible."

She's no fool; our husband wants to discipline both of them, and if she keeps acting tough, he'll surely discipline her.

A coquettish woman fares best; when she should be soft, she must be soft, and Shang Hongchen has grasped Chen Chuyang's vital point.

Seeing this, Chen Chuyang said, "Hongxue, look at this."

Shang Hongxue refused, gritting her teeth: "Brother Chuyang, come down hard on her—she's just putting on an act; this time she dared to ruin our fun, and next time she might sabotage your happiness, Brother Chuyang, you really need to think about this."

Chen Chuyang fell silent for a moment, then could only obey Shang Hongxue's orders—there was no alternative, for what she said was correct.

Shang Hongchen indeed needs a proper lesson; looking at her, she truly is arrogant, and despite all the discipline these past days, she still hasn't submitted.

Thus, the next day and night belonged entirely to Shang Hongchen.

Shang Hongxue shouted from the sidelines, constantly thinking of ways to discipline Shang Hongchen; finally Shang Hongchen collapsed and surrendered.

This time she submitted completely.

She no longer dared to harbor any thoughts, nor act defiantly.

After disciplining Shang Hongchen, she couldn't get out of bed for at least two or three days; satisfied, Chen Chuyang and Shang Hongxue left the room, letting Shang Hongchen rest, while they themselves went straight to the location of the spirit veins.

After Longshe Shan's spirit vein advanced to medium grade, its vein core expanded considerably; consequently Longshe Shan itself kept growing, rising noticeably, the whole mountain now looking more majestic, filled with the dignity of dragons and serpents.

Seeing this core, Shang Hongxue exclaimed, "How beautiful."

"The spirit vein core is so beautiful, Brother Chuyang—you didn't come here this time just to...?"

Chen Chuyang nodded: "Not bad; this time I obtained a low-grade spirit vein core from Tianwai, which can be merged into Longshe Shan's spirit vein to strengthen it, and also to reshape Longshe Shan into a brand-new blessed land."

Saying this, Chen Chuyang produced a spirit vein core, a sight that Shang Hongxue could witness with her own eyes.

For this girl it would be beneficial, but Shang Hongchen is too weak to withstand it; even looking would be pointless.

"Girl, wait—you must watch carefully, not miss any detail."

"Understood, Brother Chuyang." Shang Hongxue obeyed, standing aside and focusing intently on every move Chen Chuyang made.

The spirit vein cores merged; the low-grade spirit vein core fused into Longshe Shan's spirit vein core, and an energy burst forth at the moment of collision.

All of this occurred within that area, with no effect on the outside.

Shang Hongxue was enveloped by that energy, straining to withstand its impact; she thus understood why Brother Chuyang didn't bring Shang Hongchen along but only let her come—the energy fluctuation was too terrifying, something Shang Hongchen could not bear.
