Chapter 150: The Women Cultivate the Martial Dao

After the wedding, there were two mistresses in the household—Cai'er and Meiniang.

Both of them were approachable, though Cheng Feng's feelings for Meiniang were somewhat more complex.

What he valued was not only her beauty, but also that Meiniang had a clean background, allowing him to claim to the outside world that he had married a woman from a respectable family.

Cai'er had never abandoned him from his lowest point to his peak. She had even offered her pure, flawless body to him, and the harmonious coexistence among the women in the household was largely due to Cai'er's mediation and reconciliation.

Cheng Feng understood in his heart that he must never let such a good woman suffer and toil alongside him. Although taking two Equal Wives at once might invite outside criticism for being greedy for beauty, beyond that, others had nothing to say.

After the wedding night, the next morning, Cheng Feng brought his two lovely wives to the main hall to offer morning tea to his parents.

Cheng Fu and Cheng Mu had nothing more to say about their son's marriage; after all, they even had a grandson now, and it would be unreasonable not to give Cai'er a proper status.

Seeing that the number of women around Lao Er was increasing, Cheng Fu and Cheng Mu also understood that they just needed to avoid meddling in things.

Since being freed from the production class, Cheng Fu's days had been very comfortable recently. He no longer needed to work from sunrise to sunset like in the past; now, he only needed to reach out for clothes and open his mouth for food to enjoy better meals than his family ever had before.

Did they really think everyone wanted to suffer and endure hardship??? At most, they were just a bit unaccustomed to it.

The Cheng Mansion had meat and vegetables at every meal. Cheng Mu intended to remind them not to be too wasteful, but Cai'er, who was in charge, stated bluntly that this was specifically arranged by Cheng Feng.

Since everyone in the household also needed to practice martial arts to strengthen their bodies, the diet naturally had to be guaranteed. If the two elders were willing, they could also try practicing.

Watching the women follow Xu Miao's instructions during their daily practice, with every movement being very standard and looking the part, the two elders felt very gratified and no longer interfered too much.

The women had all very obediently not touched the snake meat Cheng Feng had left at home previously. It was not until Xu Miao came to teach the Mountain Crushing Fist that they began to gradually consume this snake meat and draw nutrition from it.

Every time they finished eating the snake meat, their bodies would become abnormally hot, but they would immediately go out to stand in fist stances, using the stances and the Breathing Method to guide that heat flow into their bodies.

For Xu Miao's injuries, this bit of heat flow did not have much effect. Only the three women, Xiao Fang, Maomao, and Xiao Ling, stood in stances the longest and absorbed it the fastest, so the effect of eating the snake meat was most significant for them.

By comparison, the absorption situation for the three little girls, Xiao Zhuzi, Xiao Zhen, and Xiao Yu, was not ideal; they even had nosebleeds the first time they tried supplementing their nutrition.

Therefore, Cai'er ordered that these three little girls should not eat this kind of meat in the future. In addition, Cheng Feng had also instructed Cai'er to put more effort into stance training.

Because his heart was filled with endless anticipation, and he couldn't wait to see what Cai'er would look like when she injected the Super Serum after becoming a powerful Martial Artist in Strength Refining.

At that moment, she would surely become another rock-solid pillar of the household! Currently, the only expert in the house was Xu Miao, but she was an injured person.

Lao Da and Lao San Cheng Feng had each prepared a Super Serum; this would be the final assistance Cheng Feng could provide them.

As for the very last serum remaining, it would need to be decided how to use it based on Xu Miao's specific level of devotion. It would be best if she just had a child directly.

After all, Xu Miao was once a Martial Artist who had reached the Blood Refining Late Stage! If she could successfully recover to her former level, Cheng Feng estimated that he would be grinning from ear to ear!

As for the unbearable, intense pain that was a side effect of the Super Serum, Cheng Feng was truly helpless.

At the time, Cheng Feng had been tortured to the point of almost going mad, and it was only by relying on stance training and constantly practicing his forms that he had struggled through that ordeal.

Cheng Feng would never forget that heart-wrenching pain, nor would he forget the massive improvement in his own strength after experiencing that pain.

Now, the best timing for Cheng Feng's plan regarding the Hong Sect had arrived. However, the only thing that made him uneasy was the safety of his household.

With two powerful Martial Artists guarding and taking care of things, Cheng Feng naturally had no worries in his heart. And ever since they were married, Cai'er had become increasingly concerned with Cheng Feng's thoughts and feelings.

When she heard Cheng Feng give such serious instructions, she immediately understood that Cheng Feng hoped she could become a Martial Artist in Strength Refining.

Cai'er, who understood Cheng Feng very well, naturally knew that the master of the house bringing out snake meat to nourish the women's bodies, while also having Xu Miao provide martial arts guidance to them,

was actually an opportunity the master was giving to the many women, or perhaps more accurately, he had set an unclear standard.

Was the previous standard whether or not they had given birth to a child, and now it was whether or not they had Martial Dao cultivation?

With this sense of crisis, Cai'er was not only exceptionally diligent when practicing alone, but she would even take the initiative to invite other women to practice together.

At first, there were indeed people who responded and participated; however, as time passed, they discovered that Cheng Feng did not express any opinion on this,

so some people began to slack off, some simply stopped coming, and others practiced sporadically, lacking the spirit of perseverance.

Cai'er was naturally well aware of this; she understood that some things did not need to be said, as it was not necessary after all. However, regarding the three women including Xiao Fang, she showed an exceptionally strict attitude: "You three must know that the reason the master bought you was entirely because he valued your outstanding Root Bone and aptitude in Martial Dao. Now, with Xu Miao here to guide us all, my own aptitude is certainly not as good as yours. Therefore, I hope you will not be surpassed by me."

After hearing these words from Cai'er, the three little ones felt a sense of anxiety surge in their hearts. They knew well that whether they could become Cheng Feng's women was still uncertain, but Cai'er's words undoubtedly carried great weight.

If one day Cai'er were to whisper in Cheng Feng's ear, the consequences would be unimaginable. As the First Wife who was tacitly acknowledged to be in charge of the Rear Courtyard, and having gained Cheng Feng's tacit approval and support,

although she was kind to others in daily life, once she became serious, no one dared to easily defy a single word she said.

So the three women were very serious about practicing martial arts and dared not be negligent.

The moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and the night breeze was cool. Cai'er sat alone on a stone stool in the courtyard, holding a yellowed Secret Manual of the Mountain Crushing Fist, her gaze firm and focused.

Ever since they were married and she had received the instructions from Cheng Feng, she had begun to practice even harder, hoping that in the days to come, she could meet Cheng Feng's expectations.

Cai'er did not know what Cheng Feng wanted to do, but since Cheng Feng had said he hoped she would step into the ranks of Martial Artists as soon as possible, Cai'er would not let Cheng Feng's words fall to the ground.

This was also one of the reasons why Cheng Feng liked Cai'er very much.

"Sister Cai'er, you're still practicing so late?" Cuier's voice broke the silence of the night, and following behind her was Xiaohua.

The three women originally lived in Room One, and the passage of time had made them very close.

The two of them had also originally followed Cai'er to practice together, but as time went on, they gradually became lazy and no longer persisted like Cai'er.

Cai'er looked up and smiled slightly, "Yes, the master told me that we need to step into the ranks of Martial Artists as soon as possible. For this, the supplements, the snake meat, and Xu Miao's guidance are all ready. I feel that my practice is still not enough and I need to work even harder." Her tone was filled with firmness, as if an unstoppable force was supporting her.

The two women, Cuier and Xiaohua, looked at each other, and a trace of shame could not help but arise in their hearts. They knew Cai'er was right, but laziness and comfort had made them forget their original intentions. They hesitated for a moment, then sat down beside Cai'er and decided to rejoin the ranks of those practicing.

"Sister Cai'er, we definitely won't slack off again in the future." Cuier was the first to state her position; although her voice was a bit shaky, her gaze was exceptionally firm.

Cai'er nodded and didn't say anything more, just handed the Secret Manual in her hand to them. The two women took the manual and began to study it seriously.

Xu Miao, as their instructor, was often by their side, but her status was also that of Cheng Feng's woman, so the women naturally did not take the arduous Martial Dao training seriously; they felt more that it was a leisure time, and it didn't matter if they practiced well or poorly, since the master was arranging everything anyway.

After all, women just needed to serve their men well.

But as time passed, the cultivation of Cai'er, Cuier, and Xiaohua all improved significantly. They encouraged and helped each other during their practice, forming a deep friendship. And behind all of this, it was inseparable from Cai'er's strict requirements and firm belief.

One day, Cheng Feng suddenly returned to the Rear Courtyard. He saw Cai'er and the three women including Xiaohua practicing, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face. He did not speak, but just stood quietly to the side, watching them practice their stance training.

Cai'er noticed Cheng Feng's arrival; she stopped her practice and walked in front of Cheng Feng to bow.

"Master." Her voice was filled with love.

Cheng Feng nodded, his gaze sweeping over Cai'er, Cuier, and Xiaohua.

Finally, it stopped on Cai'er, "Cai'er, you have done very well." His voice was calm, but it was filled with praise and affirmation.

Cai'er felt a warmth in her heart; she knew her efforts had been recognized by Cheng Feng. She smiled slightly and then returned to the ranks of those practicing. She knew that her path of cultivation was still very long, but as long as she had Cheng Feng's support and encouragement, she had the confidence to go even further.

And Xiaohua and the other girl also felt Cheng Feng's gaze and affirmation.

They secretly made up their minds to work even harder at their cultivation in the future, so as not to let down the expectations of Cai'er and Cheng Feng.
