Chapter 98: The Fortune and Luck of the Hou Fu

~9 min read 1,673 words

"I never had a cultivation base to begin with," Qin Bi said helplessly, telling Marquis Qin Yan, "It was already no small feat for me to kill members of the Immortal Sect using my fighting qi. This was only possible thanks to being within the Qin Yan Hou Fu, benefiting from the Hou Fu's fortune and luck."

Marquis Qin Yan felt somewhat disappointed, but the old Marquis Qin Yan was very pleased; within the territory of the Qin Yan Hou Fu, it was fine for the Hou Fu's people to be powerful.

Even the old Marquis Qin Yan had never witnessed such a situation; killing enemies without summoning magic treasures could only be due to innate fighting qi. Just thinking about how powerful this fighting qi force was made one excited.

Everyone had different thoughts, and the feelings of the legitimate and concubine-born sons were even more complex.

A young concubine-born son was still observing Qin Bi. He was not very familiar with this concubine-born cousin sister; because of Second House's Qin He, he did not like Qin Bi much, thinking only that she was soft and weak.

Now, the younger generation felt so excited they could hardly contain themselves, wishing they could follow Qin Bi and slaughter in all directions.

"Sister Qin Bi, what if cultivators from the Immortal Sect arrive with a cultivation level higher than Green Grade?" A young concubine-born son wanted to say something and spoke up, "Can you still destroy their spiritual roots?"

Qin Bi wanted to hold Rong Juan, but Qin Lang picked the child up, saying, "I will hold him."

Qin Bi then looked at this Third House young concubine-born son, "As long as you can protect me, I can destroy their spiritual roots."

Upon hearing this, several cousins walked over and stood in front of Qin Bi to protect her.

"You destroy the spiritual roots, and we will kill."

Seeing this posture, Qin Bi realized there was a misunderstanding. Although she felt nervous, she still smiled. Marquis Qin Yan and others were talking with the old Marquis Qin Yan, discussing the great experts of the Green Xuan Sect.

Qin Bi then learned that Qin He was a person of the Green Xuan Sect, focusing on fortune and luck, cultivating fortune value and luck value.

The Green Xuan Sect is one of the several top Immortal Sects. Its sect condenses spiritual energy, spiritual clouds, and spiritual sources, the true spirits of all things. It is one of the best places for cultivators to cultivate and has many great experts of the Immortal Sects.

Once the old Marquis Qin Yan spoke, Qin Bi felt she had no confidence left.

The more they spoke of how powerful others were, the less she felt she amounted to.

By noon, when no one from the Immortal Sects had arrived, everyone thought perhaps they would not come. They had killed too quickly for anyone to notice; from destroying the spiritual roots, kicking them down, to killing the Immortal Sect members, it took less than the time to drink a cup of tea.

The old Marquis Qin Yan dared not order everyone to disperse. The kitchen prepared meals and sent them to the courtyard of the Fourth House.

Qin He, shocked and angry, had disturbed her fetal qi. At this moment, she was lying down resting in the Second House. Cui Shi would not let her leave, and Qin He could not go. If Qin He wanted to make a scene, Cui Shi would not mind slapping her.

Qin He's complexion was poor, with no color at all. Cui Shi said, "Go ask if Qin He has disturbed her fetal qi and if we should send her back."

"It's all Qin Bi's fault, causing Sister Qin He to disturb her fetal qi," the legitimate daughter of the Second House said angrily.

Cui Shi walked over and slapped her. The legitimate daughter's face stung. "Mother."

"Be quiet," Cui Shi scolded.

Qin Jue of the Second House ran to the Fourth House to ask Marquis Qin Yan about the situation.

Qin Tan went to the main hall living room, where Qin Bi and Qin Lang were feeding Rong Juan.

"Qin He has disturbed her fetal qi," Qin Tan said as he sat down. Seeing there was hot tea, he picked up the teacup and said, "If we do not send her back and the fetus cannot be saved, I fear the Hou Fu will have difficulty explaining itself to the Xue Wang Fu."

This was an intention to discuss with Qin Bi; previously, Qin Bi had never received such treatment.

Qin Bi stood up and went outside. Marquis Qin Yan and others immediately stood up. Qin Bi used her fighting qi to sense around Jingcheng and said, "My fighting qi did not detect anyone from the Immortal Sects nearby. Why don't we disperse?"

Marquis Qin Yan and others did not leave but sent someone to the Second House to deliver a message and send Qin He back.

Just as they were tidying up, Qin Bi continued to use her fighting qi to sense and couldn't help but sneer. Qin He's luck was nothing special. Two waves had come, and that was it. She had thought members of the Immortal Sects would come wave after wave.

It made sense; within the Qin Yan Hou Fu, whoever the Hou Fu's people favored, the fortune and luck favored them too.

After waiting another half an hour with still no movement, Qin Lang was still somewhat reluctant, "Are they really not coming? I was thinking of picking up more magic treasures and magic tools."

Qin Bi replied, "Qin He's fortune value and luck value are too low."

Were the two auspicious clouds of Great Yan so easy to swallow? If one swallowed the auspicious clouds, even if the Heavenly Dao wanted to favor Qin He, it would be unable to do so due to lack of strength. Just wait; Qin He is pregnant again. Let's see what she swallows this time.

"You kid, what magic treasures and magic tools did you pick up? Bring them out for me to see."

"These two were of Green Grade cultivation; there should be quite a few good things, right?"

"Let me see what magic tools these are."

The younger generation surrounded Qin Lang, and Qin Xun quickly took Rong Juan over.

Qin Lang protected his storage bag. Seeing that there was indeed no spiritual power or killing intent outside the manor, Marquis Qin Yan called everyone to the old Marquis Qin Yan's courtyard to count the harvested magic tools and magic treasures. The people of the Immortal Sects were indeed wealthy; there were even elixirs.

Lin Yao came to take Rong Juan to the fief. Qin Bi hesitated, worrying that if she left, the people of the Qin Yan Hou Fu would have no means of defense against the Immortal Sects. In the end, Qin Bi did not go, only letting Rong Juan leave with Lin Yao.

"Mother, are we still killing?" Rong Juan did not want to leave yet.

Lin Yao's eyelid twitched. Qin Bi said, "No more killing."

Hearing this, Rong Juan followed Lin Yao to the fief.

Qin Bi waited until evening, and no one from the Green Xuan Sect came, so she stood up and returned. Jiang Shi originally wanted to see Qin Bi off at the door, but Qin Lang and others rushed to see her off instead.

Upon receiving the report from the guards, Rong Juan's expression changed. In a panic, he requested the Imperial Physician to examine Qin Bi's pulse. Before the Imperial Physician arrived, Rong Juan checked Qin Bi's pulse himself and felt slightly relieved.

The Imperial Physician arrived very quickly. After checking the pulse, he said, "There is nothing wrong; she is perfectly fine."

But it made him furious. Was the Imperial Physician paid by the Emperor and not by the Rong Wang Fu's silver? Calling for an Imperial Physician at the slightest thing. Did you really disturb your fetal qi? You can jump around without any problems.

Rong Juan's heart, which had been held tight, finally relaxed. After hesitating for a moment, he rewarded the Imperial Physician with a low-grade monster crystal.

Just one, only one. The Imperial Physician did not want it; he thought it was stingy.

He did not throw it back to Rong He Shizi. The Imperial Physician thought, "If you don't take it, you lose it," so he put it away and returned to the palace.

"Do not scare me like that again," Rong Juan said, hugging Qin Bi. It was rare tenderness. "If the Qin Yan Hou Fu has trouble and needs to fight, send someone to call me. You are pregnant; what fighting qi can you use?"

Qin Bi knew Rong Juan cared about the child and nodded, "Mm, I understand."

While Qin Bi was fine, Qin He was not. This time, having disturbed her fetal qi, Xue Qing went to find He Yan and requested an Imperial Physician from the palace. The Imperial Physician checked the pulse and said, "Well, she has disturbed her fetal qi again."

This Xue Wang Fei was interesting. Rong He Shizi had a fate of being a wife-killer and childless, so having a child was not easy, which was why he was so nervous about Rong Rong Shizifei. Xue He Shizi did not have a fate of being a wife-killer and childless, yet he treated having a child as if he were holding a treasure.

"Buy high-grade spirit fruits that are warming and nourishing to eat," the Imperial Physician advised.

Xue Qing immediately thought of He Yan and asked He Yan to accompany him to the small space of the Monster Realm.

He Yan hesitated for a moment, then accompanied Xue Qing to the small space of the Monster Realm.

As soon as He Yan and Xue Qing left, the Great Yan Emperor sent someone to deliver a spirit plant chicken to Qin He at the Xue Wang Fu.
