Chapter 15: Saint of Love Zhou Sui, Your Safety Is What Matters Most

~8 min read 1,422 words

Hearing this, Mu Ziyan and Xia Jingyan were also astonished; they had never expected that the ordinary Qi Refiner before them actually possessed such a Secret Technique, which was truly inconceivable.

Instantly, they began to perceive Zhou Sui's image as mysterious and unfathomable.

"It is not exactly that I have mastered a Secret Technique for brewing Spirit Wine, but rather that I happened to obtain a Spirit Insect called a Wine Insect; by utilizing the power of this heaven-and-earth Spirit Insect, one can transform ordinary wine into Spirit Wine."

Zhou Sui explained the reason why he was able to brew Spirit Wine.

What?!

Once these words were spoken, it made the three women, including Ji Bingyu, feel even more incredulous, because this was even more formidable than a brewing Secret Technique; it was equivalent to making a fortune without any capital.

After all, if one were to brew Spirit Wine in the ordinary way, there would still be costs involved.

Even if the price of Spirit Wine is very high, the costs are not cheap either, and generally speaking, it only amounts to a profit of one hundred percent.

But the Wine Insect, however, can make ordinary wine transform into Spirit Wine, which is equivalent to not needing any capital at all.

If this news were to spread, even a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, or even a Golden Core Cultivator, would be moved.

After all, who would not want to obtain such a heaven-and-earth Spirit Insect?

"Husband, this is a top-secret matter that concerns your very life and safety; how could you leak it so casually? If outsiders were to find out, you wouldn't have enough lives to die for."

Ji Bingyu said softly.

She knew that even if they were Dao Companions, there were some secrets that one would not want those around them to know, and the existence of this Wine Insect was such an earth-shattering secret.

If it were truly leaked, even a Foundation Establishment Cultivator would take action to cause trouble for Zhou Sui.

"Yu'er, you are my Dao Companion; if I cannot even trust you, then who else in this world can I trust?"

"It is precisely because I consider you the person closest to me that I spoke of it."

"As for Miss Mu and Miss Xia, they are also your life-and-death friends, so I naturally trust them as well."

Zhou Sui revealed an expression of absolute sincerity.

"Husband."

Hearing this, Ji Bingyu's pretty face flushed red, her large eyes were watery, and she felt incomparably moved inside, as if a warm current had completely surged into her heart.

She felt the love in her heart erupt like a volcano, even drowning out everything else.

As expected of the man she had set her sights on.

"This!"

Xia Jingyan, who was originally indifferent by nature and had never trusted any stranger Cultivator before, now felt a faint sense of being moved surge from the depths of her heart, though she did not know why.

The saying that a scholar dies for one who understands him—the feeling of those ministers willing to die for their monarch—was probably just like this.

Is this the man that Sister Ji has set her sights on?

He is indeed completely different; he is entirely unlike other Cultivators and other men in this world.

It seems my judgment is far inferior to Sister Ji's; I still lack the ability to judge men.

For some reason, she had originally thought Zhou Sui was just an unremarkable man, like a weed seen everywhere.

But now, she suddenly felt an endless charm emerging from this ordinary man, as if he possessed a faint, sacred radiance.

At this moment, she also recalled what her mother had once told her: that there truly exists in this world such a man who is unremarkable yet full of charm.

Previously, she thought her mother was joking; she never expected that such a man would actually exist in the world.

She felt her heart begin to beat violently and uncontrollably; this was an unprecedented feeling.

"Rest assured, we will definitely keep this matter a secret."

"Even if it means death, no one will hear this news from our lips."

Mu Ziyan, like Xia Jingyan, also felt the emotion of being completely trusted by someone else.

In this world of cultivation, full of deceit, the law of the jungle, and people who only care about their own interests, such a man was truly too rare—even rarer than a ten-thousand-year Spirit Medicine.

She also did not know why, but the temperature of her body began to rise.

It seemed as if a pleasant scent was permeating from this man.

At this moment, she felt like a moth to a flame, longing to throw herself at this man.

"There is no need to be so heroic."

"If we truly encounter a life-and-death crisis, then it would not matter if the heaven-and-earth Spirit Insect is revealed."

"Because to me, your safety is the most important thing; compared to that, the secret of the Spirit Insect is of no consequence at all."

Zhou Sui said grandly, his affectionate words flowing out as if they cost nothing.

Of course, he was not some kind of saint, nor did he truly trust others with his whole heart.

The reason he dared to reveal the secret of the Wine Insect in front of the three women was because the Infatuation Gu on his body had just birthed two Sub-Gus when he advanced to the Qi Refining Third Layer.

Just a moment ago, he had already quietly placed the Sub-Gus on Mu Ziyan and Xia Jingyan.

He believed that it would not take long for the power of the Infatuation Gu to take effect.

Therefore, he was naturally not afraid that the other two women would betray him.

"This!"

Hearing this, Mu Ziyan and Xia Jingyan's pretty faces turned red, their hearts thumping wildly.

At this moment, they could not describe their feelings in words.

Although they were both decisive female Cultivators who had killed many, they had never heard a man say such things to them.

Most male Cultivators they encountered basically wanted to rob them or kill them to seize their treasures.

Or they wanted to capture them to use as a Cauldron.

In short, few were well-intentioned.

"What is this 'you and you'? Husband, you wouldn't be thinking of taking my two sisters as concubines, would you?"

Ji Bingyu looked at Zhou Sui with a very dangerous gaze.

"Cough, cough, how could that be? Yu'er's sisters are my sisters, so naturally, I must look after them."

Zhou Sui coughed once: "Right, let's stop talking about these things for now. With the existence of this Wine Insect, we can sell Spirit Wine, right? We can earn a large amount of Spirit Stones by relying on selling Spirit Wine, and by then, you won't need to go outside the city to take risks."

"I heard that the Xianxia Sect has sent quite a few Cultivators over recently, and a large number of Loose Cultivators have swarmed in. Miyun City has become a place of many troubles; if one were to take risks in the wilderness casually, it is very likely one would encounter unimaginable danger."

He hurriedly changed the subject.

"So that's how it is. It seems my husband also knew about this news and only brought out the Wine Insect because he was worried about my safety?" Ji Bingyu looked at Zhou Sui with beautiful, watery eyes, a wave of warmth suddenly surging in her heart, and the jealousy she felt before immediately vanished without a trace.

After all, this man exposing his Spirit Insect was all for her sake.

"Of course. Although you, Yu'er, have remarkable combat power, one cannot walk by the river often without getting their shoes wet. It is still safer to honestly stay in the city and cultivate. If it is not necessary, do not go outside the city to take risks."

"Right now, the sale of Spirit Wine alone is enough for our cultivation and daily expenses."

Zhou Sui said in a deep voice.

In his past life as a shut-in, he was naturally not fond of going out to venture into the world. If one could earn money at home, why take risks? That would simply be a loss outweighing the gain.

Moreover, this world is extremely dangerous.

One careless move and one's body would die and their Dao would vanish; he had to be extremely cautious.
