In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed since Chen Changsheng and Lu Ling'er consummated their marriage.
Chen Changsheng turned a deaf ear to the outside world, devoting his entire heart and soul to cultivation.
In just half a month, he allowed Lu Ling'er to experience what it meant to reach the ultimate bliss on earth.
It was not merely the pleasures of a man and a woman, but also the joy of having her cultivation base skyrocket at every single moment.
As expected of a high-grade spirit root, in just half a month, Lu Ling'er's cultivation broke through from the fourth level of Qi Condensation all the way to the fifth level in one go. This unbelievably rapid progress made Lu Ling'er utterly infatuated with Chen Changsheng.
Although Chen Changsheng did not achieve a breakthrough, his cultivation at the first level of the Nascent Soul realm was rapidly stabilizing.
This speed was simply incomparable to that of low-grade or medium-grade spirit roots.
Chen Changsheng even suspected that Lu Ling'er's high-grade spirit root was slightly superior to the one he used to have.
...
In the Chen family estate, there was a core backyard spanning dozens of acres; this was a territory belonging exclusively to Chen Changsheng, and to the other Chen family descendants, it was an absolute forbidden ground.
To ensure his privacy, as early as when he broke through to the Golden Core realm, Chen Changsheng had secretly set up a grand defensive formation. Essentially, only his two beautiful twin concubines, and now Lu Ling'er, were qualified to come and go as they pleased.
Inside a pavilion in the backyard, Lu Ling'er, clad in a light gauze dress, gazed at Chen Changsheng beside her with a hazy, mesmerized look, as if he was the only person left in her eyes.
"I have monopolized my husband all to myself for half a month. Won't my two older sisters be angry with me?"
Hearing Lu Ling'er's feigned innocent words, the corners of Chen Changsheng's mouth twitched.
If it weren't for the fact that he had thoroughly understood everything about the woman before him over the past half month, he would have thought he had genuinely encountered a master of manipulation.
"Don't worry, Bing'er and Xue'er are not so petty. Besides, they set off for the Bright Jade Palace half a month ago. I reckon they won't be back for at least half a year to a year."
Thinking of the only two wives who still accompanied him to this day, a feeling of tender affection welled up in Chen Changsheng's heart.
After all, they had been by his side for thirty years. Even cats and dogs would develop deep bonds after thirty years of companionship, let alone women.
Therefore, Chen Changsheng did not really restrict the two women's thoughts or actions too much.
As for the two women, although they were completely obedient to Chen Changsheng, they were somewhat unable to withstand his frantic demands.
Thus, apart from keeping him company in the Chen family estate, the two women would also occasionally use the excuse of visiting relatives to stay for a short period at their original sect, the Bright Jade Palace.
Half a month ago, upon learning that Chen Changsheng wanted to take another wife, the two women, who knew of his special physique, silently mourned for their new younger sister.
Then, using the excuse of visiting relatives once again, they headed to the Bright Jade Palace, which was tens of thousands of miles away.
"Alright, Ling'er, don't overthink it. When you meet your two older sisters in a while, you will know their attitude. They are actually very welcoming of your arrival."
As Chen Changsheng spoke, he reached out to wrap his arm around the beauty's slender waist, pulling her into his embrace.
Feeling herself enter a scorching embrace, Lu Ling'er couldn't help but let out a soft moan, "Husband, it is still daytime!"
"So what if it's daytime? Does diligent cultivation distinguish between day and night? Ling'er, do you not want to work hard on your cultivation?"
Hearing this, Lu Ling'er thought of how her cultivation base skyrocketed during her moments of pleasure with Chen Changsheng. She could no longer bother to remain shy, simply blushing as she allowed Chen Changsheng to do as he pleased.
Within the small pavilion, a scene of spring was fully displayed for a time, the joys of which were beyond what could be described to outsiders.
...
Just as Chen Changsheng was toiling hard to improve his cultivation, a magnificent and massive flying ship quietly appeared in the sky above Sky Cloud City, attracting the attention of a large number of local cultivators.
"Is that... the legendary flying ship!"
"That's the legendary flying ship? I heard that only Golden Core experts can afford to use flying ships. Could it be that another Golden Core expert has graced our Sky Cloud City?"
"Could it be a friend of Patriarch Changsheng of the Chen family?"
The cultivators of Sky Cloud City were all engaged in spirited discussions because of the flying ship's appearance.
One must know that a flying ship was not something an ordinary faction could afford to maintain. The price of a flying ship alone was as high as hundreds of thousands of low-grade spirit stones, not to mention that every time the flying ship was used, it would easily consume hundreds or even thousands of low-grade spirit stones.
Only those Golden Core experts with profound backgrounds had the qualifications to possess such a luxury item for transportation.
Moreover, a flying ship was not as simple as just being able to fly.
A complete flying ship not only had a speed comparable to a late-stage Golden Core cultivator flying at full strength, but it also had a large number of formations arranged upon it.
These formations could not only accelerate cultivation but also defend against the attacks of Golden Core cultivators. Its price was several times that of ordinary magical treasures of the same tier.
For the vast majority of cultivators, a flying ship was already a powerful magical treasure that they could only gaze at in longing but never obtain.
At this moment, on the flying ship, a handsome young man looked at the city below, a trace of disdain appearing at the corners of his mouth.
"I didn't expect that after more than a hundred years, not only did that Chen Changsheng not die of old age in this small city, but he actually broke through to the Golden Core realm."
"It's just that I was about to forget about you, yet you suddenly made such a huge commotion. You really don't know how the word death is written!"
If Chen Changsheng saw the young man before him, he would definitely recognize him.
He was the main culprit behind why Chen Changsheng had been hiding his cultivation all this time. More than a hundred years ago, this was the direct descendant of a Nascent Soul Patriarch who had completely destroyed his foundation—Wang Yuan.
Just then, a middle-aged man respectfully approached Wang Yuan's side.
"Young Master, the location of the Chen family has been clearly investigated. I heard that since Chen Changsheng took a wife half a month ago, he has been indulging in sensual pleasures with his beautiful bride in the Chen estate, not stepping a single foot out of the Chen family for half a month."
As the middle-aged man spoke, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Haha, good, good, good! The guy who was once called the Twin Stars of the Profound Jade Sect alongside me has now been reduced to trash addicted to women!"
Wang Yuan's words were extremely arrogant, but he also had the capital to be arrogant.
At a mere two hundred years old, he had already reached the seventh level of the Golden Core realm. As long as he took two more steps forward, he would reach the peak of the Golden Core realm and gain the qualifications to charge toward the Nascent Soul realm.
And what about Chen Changsheng? In his eyes, he was nothing but an ant who had just broken through to the first level of the Golden Core realm.
In the eyes of others, the Golden Core realm might already be considered an expert among experts.
But to Wang Yuan, a guy who only broke through to the Golden Core realm near the end of his lifespan—so what if he was given another three hundred years of life? He would never touch the threshold of the Nascent Soul realm in his entire life.
However, Wang Yuan would not let Chen Changsheng off just like that.
With a casual wave of Wang Yuan's hand, the flying ship beneath his feet instantly radiated boundless brilliance.
"Hehehe, we haven't seen each other for over a hundred years. I suppose that piece of trash Chen Changsheng has already forgotten about me. To think he actually has the time to indulge in sensual pleasures here?"
"This won't do. I must give him a proper greeting gift."
As Wang Yuan's voice fell, the brilliance around the flying ship condensed into a single line, transforming into a massive beam of light that shot directly toward the Chen family estate.
