Chapter 33: I Want to Be Your Wife

Wei Ziqing gently pulled away the Passionflower vines wrapped around Little Dragon Maiden, letting the poisonous thorns of the Passionflower prick his own hands.

The moment those vines disappeared from Little Dragon Maiden’s body, she could no longer hold back and leaned directly into Wei Ziqing’s arms, her cheeks already soaked with tears.

Wei Ziqing’s entire body stiffened the moment Little Dragon Maiden leaned on him, but he then slowly relaxed and held her gently in his arms.

He had many words to say, but at this moment, he only wanted to feel her body temperature and her familiar scent.

At this moment, time stood still!

The two of them forgot the corpse that still lay on the ground with a look of unwillingness on its face.

Wei Ziqing also forgot that he was not a person of this world.

He only wanted to hold this woman tightly!

After a long time, Little Dragon Maiden slowly raised her head and gently wiped the blood from the corner of Wei Ziqing’s mouth, her voice trembling slightly: “Does it hurt?”

Wei Ziqing did not speak; he only shook his head.

He was not in pain; he was afraid.

He had never imagined that one day, he would actually let Little Dragon Maiden suffer such harm, and bring her so close to death!

“I will be your wife, alright?”

Little Dragon Maiden looked up at Wei Ziqing. If it were before and she did not know Wei Ziqing’s feelings for her, she would not have said it.

But now…

She only wanted to be his wife!

Buzz…

Hearing these words, Wei Ziqing’s mind felt as if a thunderbolt had struck, and it became blank.

Be his wife?

Was this allowed?

He would leave her. He could never stay by her side in this world to grow old together!

More importantly, he had his mission. The death of his parents and his own guilt—all of this required his investigation to clear his name.

He could not stay in this world!

Unless he could take Little Dragon Maiden away with him!

Wei Ziqing opened his mouth and was about to speak when suddenly, a surge of information appeared in his mind, abruptly cutting off his words.

“Is he… unwilling?”

Little Dragon Maiden looked disappointed. She was about to leave Wei Ziqing’s embrace when he suddenly held her tightly.

“I want you to be my wife!”

Wei Ziqing almost roared as he shouted; he was truly willing!

His initial hesitation was because he did not want to wrong Little Dragon Maiden. He loved her, and it was precisely because of this love that he did not want to hold her back!

But now, he was not afraid!

Because he could take her away. Although it was a matter of time, he could take her with him, so why should he hesitate?

Just now, the information that suddenly appeared in his mind told Wei Ziqing that he could take characters from a Plane with him, so he no longer hesitated!

It turned out that the Anywhere Door could not only let the Host successfully travel through various Planes, but it could also take characters from those Planes.

However, taking a character away was not that simple; he needed Points!

Yes, Points!

For example, after Wei Ziqing left this world in over a year, he would earn one hundred Points!

And after the next world successfully ended, it would double to two hundred, four hundred, eight hundred, one thousand six hundred, and so on!

As for taking Little Dragon Maiden away, it required one thousand Points!

In other words, Wei Ziqing would need to travel through four Planes before he could choose to take Little Dragon Maiden. The timing for taking her away could be chosen by Wei Ziqing himself.

Furthermore, when he wanted to take another character, the Points would double again based on the original amount. This meant taking a second person would require two thousand Points!

Little Dragon Maiden’s body stiffened, then slowly relaxed. With a happy smile on her face, she nodded slightly and leaned back into Wei Ziqing’s arms.

With these words from him, she was satisfied!

…

Huang Rong never imagined that the people of the Quanzhen Sect were so narrow-minded. To deal with Wei Ziqing, they had actually joined forces with the Mongol Barbarians.

They had even done something as despicable and shameless as kidnapping Little Dragon Maiden and Yang Guo to threaten Wei Ziqing!

Back at the Hero Assembly, when she heard Yang Guo reveal that the Quanzhen Sect had abused them over the years, Huang Rong had not believed it. But at this moment, she had to believe!

Hearing the words of Cheng Ying and Lu Wushuang, Huang Rong also realized the severity of the situation. Regardless of whether the Quanzhen Sect could afford to provoke Wei Ziqing…

Just speaking of Yang Guo, although she had a strong prejudice against him because of his father, he was still her nephew after all, and she had to take care of him!

Thus, carrying her large pregnant belly, she hurriedly accompanied Cheng Ying, Lu Wushuang, and the others toward Passionless Valley, wanting to save Yang Guo and Little Dragon Maiden.

But when they arrived at Passionless Valley and saw the scene before them, she was stunned. She was fine, but Lu Wushuang, Cheng Ying, and the others turned pale and bent over, gagging.

Cruel!

Tragic!

Severed limbs and broken bodies covered the ground, and blood stained the entire entrance of Passionless Valley. The valley, which should have been a place of beautiful mountains and clear waters, was like a living hell, terrifying to behold.

Even though Huang Rong had guarded Xiangyang for many years and experienced the slaughter of battlefields, she could not help but feel a chill in her heart!

“Senior Sister, this…” Cheng Ying’s face was pale, and a look of pity flashed in her eyes. Even toward enemies, this was far too cruel!

“This should have been done by Young Hero Wei!” Huang Rong sighed slightly. Although she did not know exactly what had happened, she knew exactly who had done it!

“Daoist Priest Sun, you have done the thing you should have never done. By provoking him, you…” Huang Rong secretly blamed Sun Bu’er. This place was already so miserable, so inside must be…

Thinking of this, her expression became solemn, and she whispered: “Let’s go, enter the valley quickly!”

Huang Rong and the others hurried into Passionless Valley, but when they reached the main hall, their expressions changed again.

Huang Laoxie was still standing there blankly, his face still full of disbelief. Sun Bu’er was holding the corpse of Hao Datong, sitting slumped on the ground with lifeless eyes.

As for Imperial Preceptor Jinlun, he had already been dead on the ground for a long time!

“What… what exactly happened here?” Huang Rong’s expression became complex. She quickly went to Huang Laoxie’s side: “Father, what happened? What happened to Daoist Priest Sun and the others? Where is Young Hero Wei? Where are Guo-er and Little Dragon Maiden?”

Called by Huang Rong, Huang Laoxie finally snapped out of his shock, though his face remained full of amazement.

After a long time, he spoke slowly: “He has mastered the Sword Aura!”

“Sword Aura?” Huang Rong immediately let out a cry of surprise, her tone becoming urgent. She quickly grabbed Huang Laoxie’s hand: “Who? Who mastered the Sword Aura?”

Cheng Ying and the others were full of confusion, not knowing what the Sword Aura mentioned by Huang Rong and Island Master Huang was, or why it made them so surprised!

They did not know, but Huang Rong knew very well what it represented. It represented a Postnatal Expert!

For how many years had they all stopped at the Peak, unable to step into the Postnatal Realm? In a hundred years, other than Wang Chongyang, no one else had. How could this not shock Huang Rong!

She looked at her father urgently, but he remained silent.

Looking at Sun Bu’er and the dead Imperial Preceptor Jinlun and the others, her face became unbelievable: “He, Wei Ziqing? He is already a Postnatal Expert! How is this possible!”

Gasp!

As soon as Huang Rong said this, everyone present gasped sharply.

How was it possible?

Someone who had practiced martial arts for less than two years could be a Postnatal Expert?

How could this be?

Was Wei Ziqing some kind of monster? Or were they all still dreaming? It must be known that Wang Chongyang only became a Postnatal Expert in his sixties; how old was Wei Ziqing?

Twenty-one?

Everyone turned their gaze toward Huang Yaoshi, but they were met with silence.

At this moment, everyone fell into an eerie silence, their hearts struggling like a stormy sea to accept this fact!
