Chapter 674: Newlyweds and the Struggle of the First Madam
"Angel Light Blade!"
"Unfixed Storm!"
Directly above the Gulei Imperial Palace, the delicate shouts of two women rang out, accompanied by golden and blue light sufficient to cover the entire city.
A young palace maid looked at the sky and muttered, "Are the First Madam and Second Madam starting again?"
The person beside her hurriedly covered her mouth, "Watch your tongue, you can't say that. The two Crown Princesses are fighting precisely to determine the title of First Madam and Second Madam. If someone hears you and asks which one is the First Madam, whichever one you answer will be wrong."
It has been several days since Feihuang got married, but these past few days, his life has not been exactly easy.
It started from the night of the bridal chamber; Qian Renxue and Lv Lingqi, in order to compete for who is the First Madam, the mistress of the Nan Family, fought incessantly, neither willing to yield to the other.
Especially whose room Feihuang went to on his wedding night—it was practically a matter of life and death.
Fortunately, there is still the well-behaved Xue Ke. Since she couldn't beat those two anyway, she let them make their fuss, while she herself took advantage of the times they were bickering to silently monopolize her husband.
Feihuang could feel that although these two girls were fighting very fiercely, they actually held no hostility toward each other.
Rather than calling it a battle, it was more in the nature of a sparring match. Clearly, they also had a sense of proportion; at the very least, they knew that since they had become a family, there should be a limit to the fuss.
The two's sparring was merely to compete for who was Feihuang's primary mistress. In the end, the two decided that the victorious side would be the First Madam of the household, and the defeated one would temporarily settle for second.
The two's strength was actually on par, both around level 96, and both held divine artifacts, with real combat power comparable to a Limit Douluo.
As a result, in the first battle—that is, the day of the wedding night—because Qian Renxue was close to finishing the Nine Trials, she had a slight edge in her mastery of the Angel Holy Sword and Angel Divine Power, and thus won.
Lv Lingqi was a good sport, and that day she yielded Feihuang to Qian Renxue.
However, she was not the type to give up just because she lost. Soon, she created a restrictive halberd technique targeting Qian Renxue's sword art, and three days later, she fought back, successfully defeating Qian Renxue and becoming the First Madam of the household again.
Today is the third battle, and Qian Renxue is determined to win it back.
It is just a pity that in terms of combat technique, she could never surpass Lingqi. Once the Angel Clan's sword art had been broken by Lingqi, no matter how she changed her usage, it was useless.
"Hehe, Qian Renxue, it's truly a pity. Even if you change the sword path of your Angel sword art, the essence of this set of sword art remains completely unchanged; it is useless against me." Lv Lingqi swung her halberd to deflect Qian Renxue's sword path, and the next moment, the tip of the Sea God Trident was already pressed against Qian Renxue's beautiful neck.
Even Qian Renxue's mother, Bibi Dong, was no match for Lingqi, let alone this young girl with insufficient combat experience.
"Damn it, I lost!" Qian Renxue was also not someone who couldn't accept defeat; she admitted it when she lost.
"Then why don't you call me sister?" Lv Lingqi laughed. On the day of the grand wedding, after she lost to Qian Renxue by half a move, she had called out without the slightest hesitation.
But Qian Renxue had strong self-esteem and was always coy about it.
"I know, sister, sister, is that enough?" In the end, Qian Renxue said with a blushing face.
Lv Lingqi nodded, "Mm, that's more like it. As the First Madam of the Nan Family, my good sister is so polite; this palace is very gratified." The two returned to the ground together, and Qian Renxue said unwillingly, "Don't be smug. Since the Angel sword art has been seen through by you, I will soon create a new sword art to challenge you again."
"Then you should work hard. It's just a pity that for the next year, you can only be my sister, because if you want to challenge me, you'll have to wait until I come back at the very least." Lv Lingqi said with some reluctance.
Qian Renxue was stunned, "You are leaving?"
"Yes, I have to return to Sea God Island. You must know what kind of powerful opponents our husband will face in the future. To be enemies with gods, I must also become a god. I must complete the Sea God Nine Trials as soon as possible and return to help my husband." Lv Lingqi actually didn't want to go back so soon.
After all, they were newlyweds; how could she bear to part with Nan Feihuang?
But as a female general of a generation, she could still distinguish the priority of matters. For the sake of a long future, a year of separation was something she could endure.
At this time, Feihuang also walked over with Xue Ke, stepped forward, and gently stroked Lingqi's short silver hair, "Lingqi, be careful in everything. The Deep Sea Demon Whale King is a powerhouse who transcends the Limit Douluo; it must absolutely not be underestimated. You must remember, you must wait until you have added eight rings to your Second Martial Soul, the Viking Giant, before going to find it. You are still missing five spirit rings. I think the amount of five spirit rings is enough to push your level close to level 97 or even 98. By then, your power combined with the Sea God Trident will also be able to surpass a Limit Douluo. You must use all the trump cards you can to have a chance of winning, understand?"
Feihuang was in the middle of his earnest exhortations when Lv Lingqi suddenly leaned in and blocked his chatter with her mouth.
After a long while, their lips parted, and Lv Lingqi smiled, "Husband, don't worry, I will win, because I know how much you care about me, so I won't let you down either."
Feihuang smiled and nodded, "That's right, I never need to worry about you, because you have always known what to shoulder when you fight. This way, I can also be at ease. Go, Lingqi, I will wait for you to return after you become a god and grow stronger."
This scene of harmony between husband and wife made Qian Renxue burn with jealousy, but unfortunately, she had just lost to Lv Lingqi, and for the time being, Lv Lingqi was the First Madam of the household.
However, she would not admit defeat, "Hmph, I will also return to the Spirit Hall to focus on the Angel Nine Trials. Feihuang, I will definitely become a god before her."
"Hehe, as for your cultivation talent, Xue Jie, I have never doubted it. Innate Level 20, it is no less than Lingqi's. The reason you lost to Lingqi is, first, the lack of an Immortal Herb to refine your soul power, and second, your martial techniques are not as good as Lingqi's. Here, with these two, I believe your strength will also greatly increase, Xue Jie." Feihuang took a flower and a book out of his Spirit Tool.
This flower was an Immortal Herb plucked from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, the Holy Light Lily. It has a holy attribute and is extremely helpful for the amplification of Qian Renxue's soul power, and can further purify her soul power.
And that book is a set of sword art, excerpted from the "Purple Radiance Seven Origin Sword" within the Dunjia Heavenly Book. It is a superior Taoist sword art, not inferior in the slightest to the Ghost God Halberd Technique and the Overlord Halberd Technique. As long as Qian Renxue can master it, her combat power will rise in a straight line.
She had previously studied the Taoist Technique of Yin and Yang Taiji from Feihuang, so practicing this sword art now should yield twice the result with half the effort.
After explaining it to Qian Renxue, she was immediately pleasantly surprised, "That's great!"
She accepted the treasures from Feihuang's hands without hesitation. Having become husband and wife, she could now accept Feihuang's kindness toward her with peace of mind; isn't this just the manifestation of a husband doting on his wife?
Feihuang finally looked at Xue Ke and said, "Ke'er, after Xue Jie and Lingqi leave, I will also have to cultivate hard. My technique has extremely high requirements for one's state of mind, so your music is also very helpful to me. I'll leave it to you!"
"Husband, rest assured, Ke'er will definitely do her best!" Xue Ke said firmly.
In order to deal with the powerful enemies of the future, Feihuang did not indulge in the land of tenderness, and neither Qian Renxue nor Lv Lingqi were controlled by "love-brain" to the point of having to stick to Nan Feihuang all day; instead, they strove for a beautiful future for this family through their own efforts.
Not just them, Lan Xue was working hard to comprehend the Absolute Zero Stone, hoping to fully understand the Ice God Law; Dian Wei was practicing his halberd technique diligently; Xun Yu continued to study Formations... In order to help their children or their lord, the others were also working hard in their own ways.
