Chapter 208: Damn! My wife is actually an immortal emperor!!

While Lu Yuan was in a daze.

A lovely figure came running over, and Lu Yuan, startled, hurriedly said:

"Oh dear, wife, slow down."

The next second, Su Liyan rushed into her husband's embrace, tightly hugging him and cooing:

"Brother~~ why did you only come back now~"

Seeing his wife's adorable little appearance, Lu Yuan couldn't help but laugh loudly, supporting her buttocks he lifted her straight up.

Gu Qingwan, standing at the kitchen doorway, seeing this scene, couldn't help but speak up:

"Oh dear, you can't just hug normally, be careful not to squeeze Liyan's belly."

And Lu Yuan, holding his wife, walked toward the kitchen while chuckling:

"My son is certainly not that useless."

Having said that, Lu Yuan walked into the kitchen, looking at his mother-in-law and said:

"Mom, what delicious dish are you making? I can smell the aroma as soon as I came in."

Mother Su smiled and looked at Lu Yuan, saying:

"Yuan'er, everything you see is what you love to eat~"

Lu Yuan originally wanted to say, make something more that his wife loves to eat.

But after thinking it over……

It seems since she married in, his wife doesn't really dislike anything, nor does she have particular favorites.

Basically, she just eats whatever he eats.

Whatever he wants to eat, his wife makes that.

Thinking this, Lu Yuan's heart softened, and he couldn't help but tighten his hold on his wife in his arms.

And Mother Su, looking at the daughter hanging onto that son-in-law, said:

"Don't cling to your husband; he's tired from a day out, hurry up and fetch water for him to wash up before dinner."

Su Liyan was startled and quickly blushed, wanting to get down.

However, Lu Yuan didn't let Su Liyan go; instead, he looked at his mother-in-law and raised his eyebrows, saying:

"Hey, Mom, don't talk nonsense; it's true I'm tired from a day out, but holding my wife gives me strength—holding her I don't feel tired, I want to hold her a bit longer."

Lu Yuan's words made Su Liyan, in his arms, extremely shy.

It also made the other women in the room burst into laughter.

Seeing this, Mother Su also felt a great relief in her heart.

Her daughter's relationship with the son-in-law is still very, very good.

If that's the case, Mother Su is also reassured.

Mother Su just feared that this son-in-law would take a new lover and forget the old one.

Especially, this new person's family is remarkably influential, being Imperial Relatives and Nobles, and her father is a senior official in the Ministry of War.

Her own family's circumstances are poor, relying entirely on the son-in-law's support.

But looking at it now, there's no need to worry.

Her son-in-law is not that kind of person.

Furthermore, the words that Gu Qingwan said to her daughter this afternoon also made Mother Su feel that Gu Qingwan is not that sort of difficult person.

But rather, she is a very well-mannered lady from a respectable family.

Lu Yuan, holding his wife, came to the main hall and sat down, letting his wife straddle him.

Lu Yuan, while pinching his wife's exquisite face, said:

"What did you do today, brother? Tell me."

Immediately, Su Liyan replied in a coquettish voice:

"This morning I made a piece of clothing, then this afternoon I read a book~"

Upon hearing that, Lu Yuan seriously nodded and said:

"Yes, you should read more; only by reading and studying can you later make better clothes."

Speaking of which, his wife's tailoring shop was originally a whim.

Initially, Lu Yuan thought his wife's clothing design draft paper was good, and his wife liked it.

But when entering an industry, relying solely on the initial liking and enthusiasm is not enough to persist.

Only by continually reading and studying can one persist.

Fortunately, his wife still enjoys reading; unlike him, if it's not necessary, Lu Yuan finds reading a headache to death.

And Su Liyan nodded repeatedly, then leaned against Lu Yuan's shoulder, embracing her man and softly saying:

"Mm~ I'll listen to everything brother says~"

At this moment, Gu Qingwan sat at the other side of the table, looking at the loving Lu Yuan and Su Liyan, a faint smile appeared on her face.

Then Gu Qingwan looked at Lu Yuan curiously and asked:

"What did you do again today at the Bing Jia Chang, keeping you busy all day?"

And Lu Yuan, after glancing at Gu Qingwan, replied somewhat proudly:

"This is a secret."

Gu Qingwan was startled, then pursed her lips slightly and said angrily:

"What secrets do you have with my older sister?"

And Lu Yuan grinned and said:

"Then don't worry about it; anyway, I'll definitely tell you when the time comes."

After saying that, Lu Yuan happened to think of something, and then he suddenly looked at Gu Qingwan and said:

"Right, sis, help me out."

Gu Qingwan was startled, about to say you didn't tell sis the secret, so sis wouldn't help you.

But seeing Lu Yuan so serious, Gu Qingwan finally raised her eyebrows and said:

"What is it?"

Then Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows and said:

"It's just to see if our Great Zhou Dynasty has any blackish water welling up from underground."

The Great Zhou Dynasty's territory is vast.

Lu Yuan felt there must be some places that would be rich enough to flow with oil.

As for petroleum, the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty don't recognize it.

But that doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

If such a place were discovered somewhere, Lu Yuan wouldn't need to rely on the National Skill to find it himself.

After all, the National Skill isn't guaranteed to find it.

Moreover, even if relying on the National Skill to find it, one would have to scan the mountains and waters throughout the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Although there are trains now, making things much more convenient, one still has to go out.

It's possible that going out on such a trip could take several months and still might not find it.

His own wife is pregnant, and Lu Yuan simply doesn't want to go out.

And upon hearing Lu Yuan's words, Gu Qingwan was a bit dazed and said:

"What do you mean by blackish water?"

"Hmm……"

Lu Yuan also didn't know how to explain it to Gu Qingwan—petroleum, crude oil and such—if he told her, she still wouldn't understand.

It would just be wasting breath.

Lu Yuan merely shrugged and said:

"It's just blackish water; anyway, sis, you just help me report this to the Imperial Court.

Spread the word to all the prefectures; if any prefecture discovers it, just report it to the Imperial Court."

After saying that, Lu Yuan felt that just with these words, the people below would be fierce enough to take it seriously.

Immediately, Lu Yuan then said:

"How about giving some rewards—if anyone discovers this blackish water, they could be rewarded with ten thousand dollars or something."

Everything can rely on the broad masses of the people.

Gu Qingwan looked curious and said:

"The reward is that high?

What use does this thing have?"

Lu Yuan blinked, then grinned and said:

"Secret."

Hearing that, Gu Qingwan gave Lu Yuan an annoyed glance, then pursed her lips and said:

"Fine, fine, fine, sis will help you!

I realize I'm really cheap—you don't tell sis anything, yet sis still has to help you!"

Listening to Gu Qingwan's words, Lu Yuan hehe-laughed and said:

"Anyway, it's beneficial for the Great Zhou Dynasty; besides, who made you my sister? You are my sister, so you have to help."

Although Lu Yuan wanted to refine the finest spirit stone using the fuel engine, the fuel engine is genuinely a boon for the Great Zhou Dynasty!

With the fuel engine, the Great Zhou Dynasty could instantly leap from the First Industrial Revolution to the Second Industrial Revolution!

Think about it—at the end of winter and beginning of spring, the Great Zhou Dynasty had the steam engine; by summer and autumn, the internal combustion engine would arrive.

What a deal—the First and Second Industrial Revolutions are only months apart.

Even a cheat couldn't be this blatant!

And upon hearing Lu Yuan's words, Gu Qingwan couldn't help but give him a gorgeous, flirtatious white-eye.

"As your sister, I just let you bully me!"

Having said that, Gu Qingwan got up to serve dishes from the kitchen, while Mother Su had already started calling everyone to eat.

……

After the meal, the four women in the household went out to wash dishes.

After washing the bowls and chopsticks, Mother Su and Little Sister Yu Lan went back inside.

As for Lu Yuan's side of the household, only Gu Qingwan and Su Liyan remained.

The two women were tidying the kitchen.

Lu Yuan, meanwhile, was in the main hall, opening the window, smoking, holding the book Craftsmanship Heart in his hand.

Of course, Lu Yuan hadn't actually looked at Craftsmanship Heart; it was just for show.

Lu Yuan was instead looking at the Dao Heart in his mind, preparing to try the breathing technique tonight.

Moreover, he wasn't just going to try it himself.

He also wanted to bring his wife along.

Speaking of this cultivation method, Lu Yuan got angry.

What a lousy system.

This cultivation method they gave is pure trash—it can't even be dual cultivated.

If this Dao Heart could be dual cultivated, how great would that be!

My wife and I, in one day we'd be an Immortal King, two days an Immortal Emperor, three days straight to a Great Immortal Emperor!

When Lu Yuan was looking at the breathing technique in this Dao Heart.

In the kitchen, Su Liyan and Gu Qingwan were tidying up on one side while chatting softly on the other.

Both were afraid that making too much noise would disturb Lu Yuan, who was reading in the main hall.

"Sister Wan……are you staying tonight……?"

Su Liyan suddenly blurted out this sentence.

This sentence really scared Gu Qingwan.

She almost couldn't hold the plate steady, almost dropping it.

After she came to her senses, Gu Qingwan's face instantly flushed red, and she looked at Su Liyan and said softly:

"Little sister……you……you what nonsense are you talking about……"

"Sister today I only said……indeed……indeed to Lu Yuan……but some matters……are not up to just the two of us to decide……"

Gu Qingwan indeed had made things clear with Su Liyan this afternoon.

But the problem is……

It's just that I made things clear with Su Liyan!

I still haven't made things clear with Lu Yuan!!

Their relationship now……is still just normal siblings……hmm……

It doesn't seem all that normal……

But anyway……it hasn't come to this point.

Gu Qingwan was truly embarrassed at this moment; before Su Liyan could say anything, in the next second she put the plate on the stove and hurriedly said:

"Um……sister I suddenly remembered there's still something at home……I'm leaving first, haha, there's not much left to do, you tidy up yourself."

Having said that, Gu Qingwan blushed, and in her off-white high heels she went pat-pat-pat away directly.

When passing the main hall, Gu Qingwan didn't dare look at Lu Yuan, she opened the door and left.

Su Liyan stood at the kitchen door, glanced at the swiftly fleeing Gu Qingwan, and blinked.

Eh?

This Wan sister……

Really……

I had figured it out this afternoon……

How come she's confused again?

Su Liyan shook her head, then continued to tidy up the bowls and chopsticks.

At this moment, in Wang Yulan's room.

Su's mother and Wang Yulan were both peeking from behind the window.

Although they usually rest early at night, they weren't resting that early.

After finishing their meal, the two hurried back to their own rooms, fearing that Gu Qingwan would be shy.

How did she just leave??

Not long after.

After about several tens of minutes, Su Liyan had finished tidying up the house.

She then came up to her husband in a lovely manner, and then said in a soft, sweet voice:

"Brother~let's rest?"

Huh?

Hearing the sound, Lu Yuan withdrew from his sea of consciousness, put down the book, and then looked a bit dazed at his wife, then glanced to the side.

Lu Yuan then asked curiously:

"Eh? Gu Qingwan left?"

Su Liyan nodded and said:

"She left just a little over half an hour ago~"

"Brother, you didn't notice, huh?"

Lu Yuan blinked; he really hadn't noticed, he had been so absorbed in his reading just now.

But it's better that she left; I need to bring my wife along to cultivate~

Immediately, Lu Yuan hurriedly said:

"Quick, close the curtains, get on the bed!"

Su Liyan was startled, then nodded, extremely shy.

No matter what……

Brother still dotes on me~

Brother wants me every day~

After they closed the windows and drew the curtains, Lu Yuan directly turned off the light.

After Lu Yuan took off his clothes and got on the bed, his wife had already shyly taken off her clothes and was waiting for him.

As soon as Lu Yuan got on the bed, his wife wrapped herself around him like a beautiful snake.

Feeling his wife's soft, tender body, Lu Yuan sucked in a breath of cold air.

Hiss~~

Lu Yuan then said the obstacles on his cultivation path were really too great.

One hour later.

When the two were resting, drenched in sweat.

Lu Yuan then embraced his gorgeous, charm-dripping wife in his arms and said:

"Wife, tonight I'll teach you cultivation."

"Cult... cultivate immortals?"

At this moment, Su Liyan, her face full of satisfaction and happiness, suddenly froze.

Lu Yuan never hides unnecessary things from his wife.

Because in Lu Yuan's heart, his wife is his only family here!

True family!

So, except for some things that really cannot be openly told to his wife, such as the system, such as transmigrators.

Otherwise, Lu Yuan will choose to tell his wife.

"Like this Dao Heart, it naturally cannot be spoken openly, so Lu Yuan changed his approach and said:"

"A few days ago we were mining ore on Little Green Mountain, right? Actually I dug up an immortal cultivator's ancient tomb and learned a few things from it."

"Let's try it tonight, the two of us."

These things can only be made up as excuses.

And Su Liyan trusted her husband completely; although she was bewildered, she still nodded.

Afterwards, the two sat up on the bed.

Lu Yuan then spoke while teaching his wife, and began himself.

More than half an hour later.

Lu Yuan slightly opened his eyes and exhaled a long breath of foul qi.

Hmm……

Even though the Dao Heart contains the simplest breathing technique…… for me, a mortal who has never touched cultivation, it is extremely difficult.

This breathing technique is to inhale the spiritual qi of heaven and earth, and exhale the foul qi of the body.

To nourish the mortal body with heaven and earth's spiritual qi.

Normally, after practicing the breathing technique, one's chest should be able to gather a cluster of green spiritual light.

Moreover, those with extraordinary talent can control that cluster of spiritual light.

But…… in this half hour, not to mention gathering any spiritual light, there was literally no reaction at all.

Lu Yuan just felt his body warm; the fatigue from just horsing around with his wife vanished instantly.

As for anything else, Lu Yuan felt nothing at all.

The breathing technique also says that during practice one can feel the spiritual qi of heaven and earth.

Lu Yuan felt nothing at all, except he could smell the fragrance on his wife's body; he felt nothing else.

Just as Lu Yuan was thinking about how to explain to his wife that this was actually useful, that they should persist, and that they'd be fine once proficient...

Lu Yuan then suddenly noticed in his peripheral vision……

At that moment, Su Liyan suddenly leaned over, resting on her husband's shoulder, extending her jade hand, placing it before him and curiously asking:

"Big brother~ what is this~?"

Lu Yuan looked and saw on his wife's jade hand a cluster of green light, a blue orb the size of a fist.

Seeing this, Lu Yuan was dumbfounded.

I fuck!!

My wife is truly an Immortal Emperor!!

Thanks to Old Brother Shui Shen Ru Feng for the 1500 coin reward, thank you very much~

Thanks to Old Brother Ke Ze 1112 for the 500 coin reward, thank you very much~

Thanks to Old Brother Mu Chen Feng for the 200 coin reward, thank you very much~

Thanks to Old Brother A Quan for the 100 coin reward, thank you very much~

……

How about it, today's little bit can't be held off; if I say before twelve, then it's before twelve.
