Chapter 75: Mother, I’ve brought your granddaughter-in-law!
“A tomb actually has such immense power that it can know if its descendants’ wives and concubines have been unfaithful?”
Qi Huang incredulously confirmed. Although she had been in the Cultivation World for quite some time, she still couldn’t quite process such a bizarre matter.
“I’ll say it again, it’s not a tomb, it’s a geomantic treasure land! A geomantic treasure land is a result of the Heavenly Dao’s favor, so burying ancestors within it means descendants will receive blessings. Whether the descendants’ wives and concubines are unfaithful, the Heavenly Dao will give a hint on the tombstone. This is the most direct manifestation, because the immortal path knows everything, so no one can hide anything.”
Cheng Hong Ling impatiently explained again.
Qi Huang fell into thought. In reality, she was a hundred percent willing to spend her life with such a beautiful woman, but to conceal her true identity, she couldn’t express it. After carefully considering, she indifferently said, “But so what? Matters of affection are based on mutual consent. We’ll just explain it clearly to her then. If she really doesn’t want to wear a cuckold’s hat, we’ll just erase the name on the tombstone.”
“Things aren’t as simple as you imagine.”
Cheng Hong Ling said helplessly, “If she refuses, once her name and mine change color, the corpse buried in the tomb will generate resentment and most likely turn into a zombie, breaking out of the coffin and relentlessly pursuing us. Think about it yourself, how terrifying would a fifth-level Shentong Realm expert be if their corpse mutated? Can you handle it? I certainly can’t.”
“Corpse mutation!”
Qi Huang broke out in a cold sweat. The physical body of a Mighty Expert at the fifth level of Shentong Realm was indestructible. Once it mutated, it would definitely be a Golden Corpse. Even if she were a true Huashen Realm expert, she would be crushed like an ant, let alone a fake one.
“You should be very clear about Emperor-grade geomantic treasure lands. Tombs within them become spiritual. Once you do something that wrongs Ruoyi, the name above will turn pink. If my mother is stimulated and her corpse mutates, she will chase you to the ends of the earth!”
Valley Master Wen reminded her “kindly.”
Cheng Hong Ling’s pretty face turned grim. She had dealt with many ordinary zombies and knew how troublesome they were, let alone a Golden Corpse.
“Of course, if you are virtuous and obedient to my daughter, then not only will you not have to fear, but you will also receive her blessings.”
Valley Master Wen immediately offered another “red date.”
Cheng Hong Ling once again fell into a struggle because she knew that if she agreed, she might have to spend the rest of her life with a “milking cow.”
“To engrave your name on my mother’s tombstone is my most basic request. Take your time to consider it. I don’t like forcing people.”
Valley Master Wen added, her expression turning cold.
“Hong Ling, my dear sister, what are you hesitating for? Did you lie about everything before?”
Mu Ruoyi playfully nudged Qi Huang.
“Why not agree to them first? If you really don’t want to live with her, it won’t be too late to run when we can deal with a Golden Corpse!”
Qi Huang couldn’t resist the “sugar-coated shells” and gave a well-intentioned reminder.
“What do you know? Golden Corpses are comparable to Shentong Realm experts! Although my talent is astonishing, I can’t guarantee I’ll reach the Shentong Realm in this lifetime. Once I can’t achieve it, then I’ll have to spend my whole life with this woman.”
Cheng Hong Ling gritted her teeth and said.
‘That’s great!’
Qi Huang secretly rejoiced. She had worried about what to do if her main body liked men. Wasn’t this the opportune moment to solve this problem?
‘No, I must facilitate this beautiful union!’
Thinking this, Qi Huang didn’t bother to seek her main body’s opinion and said to the mother and daughter, “No problem! I agree!”
“Really? You’re such a filial daughter! I knew I wasn’t wrong about you! I like filial girls.”
Valley Master Wen became so excited that she started dancing.
“Haha, I knew you couldn’t resist my charm.”
Mu Ruoyi said with lingering confidence.
Cheng Hong Ling was stunned. Not caring that outsiders were present, she angrily said, “What nonsense are you agreeing to? Do you want your butt to be opened up again?”
The smiles on the faces of Valley Master Wen and her daughter froze. They looked at each other, completely bewildered by what had happened.
“Forgive my rudeness, but isn’t she your clone?”
After a moment of contemplation, Valley Master Wen cautiously inquired.
Cheng Hong Ling realized she had been too impulsive and didn’t know how to answer.
“Yes, yes, yes, I am her clone.”
Qi Huang quickly smoothed things over.
“Since it’s the same person, why the disagreement?”
Valley Master Wen questioned.
“It’s nothing, she just overthinks things. I’m the second personality.”
Qi Huang racked her brains to cover up.
“Are you saying I have mental illness?”
Cheng Hong Ling’s extremely displeased question echoed in her mind.
“Don’t get agitated! My dear elder sister! You’re not confident you can reach Shentong Realm, but I am! I’ll take you to escape then.”
Qi Huang pleaded repeatedly, thinking to herself how difficult it was to be caught in the middle.
“You’re confident you can reach Shentong Realm? On what grounds? Just by growing vegetables?”
Cheng Hong Ling satirized.
‘Of course!’
Qi Huang was amused but didn’t dare to answer.
“Second personality? What do you mean?”
The mother and daughter beside them exchanged glances, their faces once again filled with confusion.
“It doesn’t mean anything, you just need to know that I’ve agreed.”
Qi Huang quickly interrupted the mother and daughter’s wild thoughts.
“Very good! If that’s the case, then you’ll come with me to engrave your name on my mother’s tombstone. After that, Ruoyi will be entirely at your command!”
Valley Master Wen, afraid of further complications, urged her on impatiently.
“Yes! As long as you engrave your name, we’ll be a legitimate couple from now on. Sister will obey your every command without complaint.”
Mu Ruoyi also chimed in, her voluptuous body almost pressed against Qi Huang.
“Okay!”
Qi Huang’s face flushed, her heart pounding, and she became even more eager.
Cheng Hong Ling thought about it, but seeing no other way, she could only compromise.
Next, the four of them left the room and headed towards a certain location in Shuiyu Valley.
Qi Huang curiously gazed around. Along the way, there were naturally many beautiful women, but her “husband” seemed to have not seen them at all. He boldly held her hand, causing passersby to point and stare.
Seeing them like this, Cheng Hong Ling suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of loss, as if she had lost something. So, she directly withdrew her clone into her Sea of Consciousness, saying, “Mind the appearance!”
Mu Ruoyi was naturally unwilling and intended to cling to her, but this time she missed completely.
Qi Huang’s hand still held a lingering fragrance. She could only regretfully lean against the “window of the mind” to look outside, gazing at plums to quench her thirst.
Later, the three women arrived at the end of Shuiyu Valley. The terrain there was slightly elevated, with the Azure Dragon to the left, the White Tiger to the right, and a mountain behind as support. Water flowed around the front, concealing the wind and gathering energy, like a treasure-gathering basin attracting blessings and wealth. It was indeed an excellent geomantic treasure land.
Within the treasure land, a large tomb could be seen from afar. It faced north, with the tomb gate about three zhang high. Its appearance was a three-tiered pai lou style building with three gates and four pillars. From a glance, all parts had upturned eaves, and they were carved with auspicious clouds and immortal cranes, as well as divine figures, making it extremely magnificent. From the outside, it looked as grand and glorious as an imperial palace.
Qi Huang was simply stunned. Such a tomb, let alone for the deceased, seemed luxurious even for the living to reside in. It was indeed the tomb of a Shentong Realm expert!
Cheng Hong Ling followed the mother and daughter into the tomb gate and saw the semi-circular tombstone inside. The plaque above was阴刻 (yin ke – carved inwards) with four large characters, “Immortal Fortune Eternal Enjoyment,” indicating that this tomb was specially granted by the Immortal Alliance. Below, the tombstone read, “Tomb of the late Madam Wen Jing,” and the inscription below listed the names of five or six descendants.
‘It seems this is the tomb of Valley Master Wen’s mother, named Wen Jing! However, with the vast Shuiyu Valley, only a few descendants are inscribed. This proves that not anyone can have their name left on this tombstone.’
Qi Huang thought this.
“Mother, I’ve brought your granddaughter-in-law!”
Valley Master Wen and her daughter respectfully bowed three times. Then she turned to Cheng Hong Ling, her face filled with relief, “Moreover, I’ve brought your granddaughter-in-law this time!”
