Volume 11, Chapter 739 – Proposing on the Spot

Cheng Hongling’s pupils trembled violently, tears as large as beans rolling down like broken pearls, because the owner of that Divine Sense arm was none other than Qi Huang!

“She… she truly never lets me down!”

So thought Cheng Hongling, and the heart that had been hanging in suspense finally fell back into place. Her whole being was like a lone boat in the vast sea finding a safe harbor.

“Qi Huang? What do you mean by this? Do you intend to rebel against your superior?”

Cheng Ling’s voice was sharp but hollow.

“Rebel against my superior? What? Still clinging to some false hope?”

Qi Huang arched a brow, casually unsealing the Divine Sense restraints around Cheng Hongling and the three male souls, then stepped forward gracefully, mocking: “You, a mere Spiritual Wisdom Soul, dared to defy the command of the Life Soul, that is what it means to rebel against one’s superior.”

“Big brother, are you awake?”

“Hahaha, I don’t have to turn into a woman anymore! I don’t have to turn into a woman!”

“Big brother, you’re truly divine. Today I finally understand why you are the Life Soul and I am merely the Human Soul. I am wholeheartedly convinced!”

The three male souls, having survived the calamity, prostrated in admiration.

Meanwhile, Cheng Hongling covered her mouth as sobs broke free, tears splashing down in a torrent. She wanted to rush forward several times, but in the end restrained herself out of dignity.

“Impossible! Absolutely impossible! Why have you regained your consciousness?”

Cheng Ling asked, flustered and furious.

“Only my consciousness?”

Qi Huang smiled without answering, and with a lift of her hand, countless pink streams of Dream-Weaving Immortal Qi gathered from all directions, faster and more refined than Cheng Ling’s.

“Surprised? Or shocked?”

Qi Huang teased.

“Illusions, this must be illusions! How could you wield Dream-Weaving Immortal Qi?”

Cheng Ling was nearly hysterical.

“Not only can I wield Dream-Weaving Immortal Qi, I can also use Mental Erosion! Whether it’s an illusion, you’ll soon know.”

As Qi Huang spoke, seven Soul Tethers shot out, instantly binding her seven female souls. Her Divine Sense surged like an ocean, enveloping them.

The seven female souls instinctively struggled, but could not break free of the Soul Tethers, reduced in an instant to lambs awaiting slaughter.

Qi Huang’s Dream-Weaving Immortal Qi slithered forth like serpents, entwining them. Her Divine Sense pulsed with subtle vibrations, resonating with the soul bodies of the seven female spirits, just as Mimi had once remade her. This was Assimilation Heavenly Dao’s Mental Erosion.

“Time to come home, sisters!”

With Qi Huang’s vast Divine Sense, it took only moments to “remake” her seven female souls.

The gaze of the seven female souls toward Qi Huang gradually shifted into reverence. They approached one by one, greeting her: “Elder Sister!”

Cheng Ling’s face paled with horror, and she immediately tried to flee, but could not break Qi Huang’s Divine Sense imprisonment.

Qi Huang then turned to Cheng Hongling, asking for her opinion: “How do you want to deal with her?”

“Assimilate! Completely assimilate her for me!”

Cheng Hongling bit down on her pearly teeth.

“No, no, Cheng Hongling, you can’t do this. We’re one and the same, you can’t turn against me!”

Cheng Ling tried to appeal emotionally.

“When you escaped from the Honghua Sect on your own, you no longer deserved to be called my doppelgänger.”

Cheng Hongling dismissed her curtly.

Qi Huang knew well the dangers of delay. She would not allow that vicious woman another breath of respite. The Dream-Weaving Immortal Qi surged again, her mental invasion following swiftly.

Cheng Ling instinctively called upon her Dream-Weaving Immortal Qi and mental erosion to resist, but the disparity in Divine Sense strength was too great, shattering at the first clash.

“No! Save me! I don’t want to die!”

Cheng Ling screamed in terror, but the heavens did not answer, nor did the earth. In just ten breaths, she was completely assimilated, her gaze turning docile.

Cheng Ling then stepped forward, greeting Qi Huang respectfully: “Elder Sister!”

“Good. Very good.”

Qi Huang let out a long sigh of relief. Though she had paid a heavy price, the malignant tumor that had long threatened both herself and her main body was finally eradicated. All was worth it.

“All right, everyone, don’t worry anymore. It’s over now.”

Qi Huang turned and reassured the companions within the Palace of Divine Sense.

“Wuuuu…”

Cheng Hongling’s souls burst into tears of joy at her words.

Qi Huang’s three male souls were equally ecstatic, shouting with delight. They knew what they had safeguarded was not merely their gender, but their very lives!

Qi Huang then approached Cheng Hongling, her gaze tender, brimming with affection. Though she had lost her self-awareness before, she had not lost her memories, and thus knew of the bold confession from her main body.

“You… are you now a man or a woman?”

Cheng Hongling suppressed her excitement and asked carefully.

“A woman!”

Qi Huang answered without hesitation. Though she had regained consciousness, her Essence Soul had already been completely assimilated. Her body and soul had become wholly female.

“Ah?”

Cheng Hongling’s face turned ashen, murmuring: “Why? Why would it turn out like this?”

Qi Huang did not dwell on it, instead speaking directly: “What you said before, was it true?”

“What words?”

Cheng Hongling answered absentmindedly.

“Didn’t you say you liked me?”

Qi Huang asked urgently.

“What’s the use of liking you? You’ve now become a complete girl.”

Cheng Hongling’s beautiful face twisted into a bitter smile, then choked up: “You fool! Wuuu… I asked you so many times if you were my doppelgänger, why didn’t you understand? Now it’s too late for everything!”

“I’m sorry, I truly was dense, never understanding why you asked me that again and again. But today I finally see clearly. Let me give you a definite answer!”

Qi Huang took a deep breath, then solemnly declared: “Cheng Hongling, I am not your doppelgänger. I want to be your lover!”

Cheng Hongling’s delicate body shuddered, her face flushing red as she stammered: “But you are already a girl. How could a girl love another girl?”

“Because only after becoming a girl did I understand one truth. Love comes from the heart, not from sex. When it comes from sex, that is only desire.”

Qi Huang explained earnestly.

“But…”

Cheng Hongling still wanted to speak.

Qi Huang gave her no chance to waver. She boldly cupped Cheng Hongling’s face and pressed her lips against those rosy lips. ¹ Does this count as selfcest? They technically look the exact same on the outside and are related by blood 🤔

Cheng Hongling’s pupils trembled, then she closed her eyes in resignation.

Their doppelgängers around them froze for a moment, then all tactfully averted their gazes, pretending not to see.

Only after a long while did Qi Huang release her lips, speaking with lingering relish: “Don’t worry, I will take full responsibility.”

“Who wants you to take responsibility? Are you even a man?”

Cheng Hongling’s cheeks burned, but she still snapped stubbornly.

“As expected, no matter how hard a mouth is, it becomes soft when kissed!”

Qi Huang teased.

“You… say that again!”

Cheng Hongling blushed furiously, her little fists pounding on Qi Huang’s chest. It looked like venting, but in truth was closer to coquettishness.

Afterward, Qi Huang withdrew her three souls and seven spirits from Cheng Hongling’s Sea of Consciousness. Just stealing a bit of affection in soul form could never satisfy her.

Cheng Hongling soothed her own souls, then hesitated over whether to leave the Sea of Consciousness, unsure how to face Qi Huang afterward.

“Just now she kissed me, but that was in soul form! It doesn’t count!”

Cheng Hongling tried to comfort herself.

Meanwhile, Qi Huang returned to the spatial ring, pondering how to secure their bond completely. She had always hesitated before, not understanding her main body’s thoughts. Now, with all doubt gone, she had no reason to hold back.

After a moment’s thought, she struck while the iron was hot. From within her ring, she drew out a large bouquet of bright red flowers, intending to propose on the spot. Though her heart quailed with self-doubt, she knew that hesitation meant defeat.

Cheng Hongling opened her eyes, only to see Qi Huang standing before her with a massive bouquet in her arms. Her heart quivered, she instantly understood what this fool intended to do.

“Can I refuse her?”

Cheng Hongling asked herself, but the answer was of course no. For she would not let herself live with regret.

“Miss Cheng Hongling, I truly like you, will you…”

Qi Huang bent forward, mustering her courage to begin. But before she could finish, Cheng Hongling had already snatched the flowers from her hands.

“So impatient, are you?”

Qi Huang’s joy was uncontainable.

“Impatient? A mere doppelgänger dares to propose to me?”

Cheng Hongling shot her a fierce glare.

“Ah?”

Qi Huang’s heart plummeted from heaven to hell.

“If there is to be a proposal, it must be made by me, the main body!”

Cheng Hongling suddenly bent down, asking: “Miss Qi Huang, will you marry me?”

“Uh…”

Qi Huang’s mind froze for a long time. Instinctively she reached out and took the flowers, only to regret it instantly. After all, she had once been a man, how could she play the submissive role?

“Good! Very good! From now on you are my wife, Qi Huang. You must follow the Three Obediences and Four Virtues with me!”

Cheng Hongling hugged Qi Huang’s slender waist tightly, declaring her claim.

“That’s not right, you should be my wife. I was once a man!”

Qi Huang protested weakly.

“Yes, yes! It’s settled, then! When we return, I’ll tell my parents!”

Cheng Hongling said excitedly.
