Marry the Demon Sect Girl with No Bride Price-Chapter 71: Annihilating the Three Sects, A Blood Debt Repaid in Blood
Hearing Qin Gengyun’s words, Qiu Zhihe’s round little face became even redder. She quickly withdrew her hand from his grasp and said coldly:
"Don’t even think about it!"
Qin Gengyun was taken aback, then quickly understood that Qiu Zhihe thought he wanted to light candles and work with her?
He hurriedly explained, "Taoist Friend Qiu, that’s not what I meant. I just want to know more about your past and talk more with you."
It was only then that Qiu Zhihe understood his meaning, and her charming face turned even redder. She turned over, her cool voice carrying a tinge of embarrassment and annoyance:
"I don’t want to talk about it."
Qin Gengyun moved his body closer to her and said gently:
"Taoist Friend Qiu, you can easily bring out a fine bronze furnace, cultivate so many high-quality spirit grasses, and even have a storage bag, yet you choose to marry me, a low-level loose cultivator."
"I am grateful but also uneasy, which is why I want to know more about you."
"I want to know... what kind of person my wife really is."
Qiu Zhihe was silent for a moment before finally turning over to face Qin Gengyun. The two were very close, their breaths mingling. Qiu Zhihe was somewhat uncomfortable, her pale arm stretched out from under the quilt, pushing Qin Gengyun away slightly.
She tidied the bangs that hung over her forehead before asking:
"What do you want to know?"
Qin Gengyun thought for a moment and said, "You said you came from a small sect on the edge of the Northern Wilderness. Can you tell me about your sect?"
Qiu Zhihe rested her side face on the back of her hand, her eyes lowered, and after a long time, she spoke softly:
"My sect is on a very big mountain, at the top there is a small lake, and every summer, many cyan lotuses bloom in the lake, which we love to gather."
"We were always caught by the master. However, the master wouldn’t punish others, only me. I was ten at the time, and each time I would recuperate in bed for half a month."
Qin Gengyun felt somewhat distressed listening: "Was your master really so harsh on you?"
Qiu Zhihe’s almond-shaped eyes lost focus, as if caught in memories.
"I thought so at the time, too. I resented my master a lot, and every time I got punished for making mistakes, my sister would bring the best pills from the sect to heal me."
"Once, my sister told me that all those pills were personally concocted by our master. Every time after punishing me, the master would lock herself away and secretly shed tears."
"My sister said, when others made mistakes, the master only punished me because..."
Qiu Zhihe’s slender fingers clutched the bedsheet tightly:
"The master wanted to pass the position of Sect Leader to me, so she often disciplined me, hoping I would mature early and take on important responsibilities."
Qin Gengyun understood and said gently, "The deeper the love, the more severe the scolding. Your master had high hopes for you and likely thought of you as her own daughter."
A touch of softness appeared on Qiu Zhihe’s round little face:
"The master had no Dao companion or children, indeed treated my sister and me as her daughters. My sister entered the sect before me and had a higher cultivation level, but she took great care of me, like a real sister."
"The other sect members were also very kind to me. In spring we would watch the crabapple flowers on the mountain, in summer enjoy the cyan lotuses, and in autumn go down the mountain to train..."
"What about winter?" Qin Gengyun asked.
Blue veins stood out on the back of Qiu Zhihe’s hand, her voice trembling slightly:
"Winter... that winter, my sister died."
Qin Gengyun was silent for a moment, not knowing what to say. Suddenly the room seemed to grow colder. Qiu Zhihe continued:
"That winter, I was about to break through, and my sister went down the mountain to find the spiritual liquid needed for my breakthrough but was ambushed and attacked by enemy sects on the way..."
"It was snowing heavily that day. Later, when sect members went to find my sister’s remains, they said my sister chose to self-detonate at the end, leaving nothing but finding a bottle of spiritual liquid under the snow."
"That was the spiritual liquid I needed for my breakthrough. My sister must have hidden it in the snow when she was ambushed..."
Suddenly, Qiu Zhihe turned over, her shoulders trembling slightly. Qin Gengyun reached out, wanting to hold her shoulder, but before he could, Qiu Zhihe’s voice continued:
"Actually, my sister didn’t know, I never wanted to be the Sect Leader, my sister was more suitable, but she always gave everything to me. I, I let her down..."
Qiu Zhihe’s voice stopped abruptly because Qin Gengyun suddenly hugged her from behind.
Qiu Zhihe’s body stiffened, the temperature in the room that had been dropping suddenly rose, returning to warmth.
A moment later, Qin Gengyun, holding his wife’s fragrant shoulder, gently comforted her:
"For your master, for your sister, you must live well, live a good life."
Qiu Zhihe said nothing, a fleeting warmth rising in her heart, quickly turning cold again.
My purpose in living is not to live well, but to...
Exterminate the Three Sects, repay blood with blood!
Suddenly, Qin Gengyun felt the tender body in his arms stop trembling, a great force hit him, he was pushed away, the candle was extinguished, and he felt a weight on his body.
He quickly called out, "Wife!"
The charming figure paused but soon continued.
After one hundred breaths (five minutes).
Qiu Zhihe turned over, away from Qin Gengyun.
This bed is much more spacious than the small rooms before. Wrapped in the quilt, Qiu Zhihe squirmed a few times and was already far from Qin Gengyun.
Looking at her seemingly cold, but actually adorable actions, Qin Gengyun smiled, and illusory text appeared before his eyes:
[Spousal Affection +5]
[Spousal Affection: 30/100. Spousal Affection Stage: Half-baked, Half-understood. Bonus: 1]
[Gained Cultivation Points: 3]
The time has extended to five minutes!
The spousal affection also increased by 5 points!
Indeed, husband and wife need to open their hearts to truly enter each other’s hearts.
Besides, when I called "wife" during our work just now, Qiu Zhihe might not say it, but she should be happy in her heart.
I’ll try calling her again later.
I didn’t expect my wife to have experienced so many tragedies, with her master and sister, like family, killed by the Demon Sect, and so many fellow disciples also brutally murdered.
Qin Gengyun looked at Qiu Zhihe, who had turned her back to him again, her body trembling slightly, and felt an infinite tenderness.
My wife’s cool demeanor might just be a facade, her misery and pain all hidden inside.
As her husband, I must treat her gently and heal the wounds in her heart.
Qiu Zhihe clutched her quilt, biting her lip as she endured the backlash from suppressing the Profound Ice and Li Fire Technique. Soon, the turbulent aura within her gradually calmed.
Xia Qinglian, why did you tell him so much?
If someone with ill intentions finds out, your identity could be at risk of exposure!
These Righteous Path cultivators are all hypocritical and vicious, do not be fooled by that fleeting warmth.
Remember, he’s only a tool for you to regain your cultivation level.
Sister, I will definitely avenge you!
Suddenly, Qiu Zhihe turned her body, looking coldly at Qin Gengyun.
The spacious big bed began to tremble slightly again, and Qin Gengyun softly called out:
"Wife."
"Shut up!"
"Oh..."
