Chapter 954: Chapter 954: Feels Too Good (Requesting Monthly Ticket at Midnight)

Wu Zhao was still held by you, her head gently resting on your chest. In that moment, she exuded an unusual warmth and tranquility filled her heart; she was content, truly.

From your words, Wu Zhao realized you didn’t know she had ended up this way because of saving you. This showed that your action wasn’t out of guilt, but because you genuinely cared for her. Given your status, what beauties wouldn’t you have? Naturally, you wouldn’t fancy someone whose youth had faded.

In fact, Wu Zhao harbored no ambitions; she was just an ordinary woman. Even though her master told her she was destined for the Heavenly Sovereign, and would one day ascend to the Golden Heavenly Court, she was uninterested. She didn’t desire supreme power or the ability to look down on all living beings. What she wanted was a man who would cherish and love her.

Yet, at this moment, that man was still touching her sensitive spots with his salty fish hands.

"Ouch!" You felt as if your hand was stung by a needle and quickly retracted it, only to meet Wu Zhao’s slightly coquettish gaze.

"Hehe, your touch feels too good; I got carried away."

"Young disciple." Wu Zhao gave you a displeased look.

"You can say whatever, just don’t leave me. You can hit me or scold me," you said, half-closing your eyes, assuming a posture ready to take any punishment.

"Why would I hit you or scold you? I’m the one who’s not worthy..." Wu Zhao’s enticing lips were sealed by yours once again. The kiss wasn’t deep, but it was very assertive. With your actions and gaze, you told Wu Zhao she was your woman—worthy or not didn’t matter.

"From today on, you are my personal property. Without my permission, you can’t be more than a meter away from me; without my consent, you aren’t allowed to cry, only laugh. I want you by my side every day, to pamper you, love you, protect you, cherish you, care for you..."

You hadn’t finished speaking when Wu Zhao counterattacked by kissing you.

Wu Zhao gently touched your lips, the softness nearly driving you wild. Her hands cradling your face, she stared directly into your eyes: "I promise you, from now on, I will always be with you, unless one day you no longer want me—then, even death won’t stop me from clinging to you."

"Hmm, you won’t die; I want not only for you to live a long life, but also to stay with me till the world ends." Suddenly, you shouted, "Gate of Life, activate!"

You thought you could use the power of the Gate of Life to restore Wu Zhao’s youth, but it was a failure. You realized that the current power of the Gate of Life wasn’t enough to replenish Wu Zhao’s lost vitality.

"It’s useless, although your spells are powerful, my lost vitality can only be restored by the Art of Immortality."

"The Art of Immortality?"

A thought suddenly flashed through your mind. The power of the Gate of Life could indeed bring people back to life and even grant eternal youth, but with your current realm, it was only suitable for healing injuries. You knew that as your own realm improved, so too would the power of The Eight Gates of Heaven, becoming stronger and stronger.

Speaking of Open Gate alone, once you reached the realm of the Scenic Sect, you could even shatter space with your strength, creating a terrifying destructive power. Unlike now, where activating the Open Gate merely amplified your strength somewhat.

After some thought, if you wanted Wu Zhao to have eternal youth, at the very least, you’d have to reach the realm of the Scenic Sect, equivalent to the realm of an Earth Immortal. Currently, you had just entered the realm of Open Gate and based on your speed of cultivation, it would take at least a decade or more without any fortuitous encounters to reach the realm of the Scenic Sect.

However, you quickly dismissed these thoughts and believed in the saying— "Human effort can overcome fate."

You stared intently at Wu Zhao and spoke word by word: "Zhao’er, I will restore your original appearance no matter how arduous the process. But before that, you must tell me who hurt you—I’ll exterminate their entire family right now."

Zhao Wu gently shook her head, "Actually, I was always like this; I only temporarily had the youth of a twenty-year-old through the Immortal Law taught by my master."

"Alright, then just wait. Your man here will definitely grant you eternal youth."

"No, I don’t want that. I just ask to be by your side forever, even if it’s just for a year."

Knowing that nothing you said now would make a difference, you just held Zhao Wu close, silently vowing in your heart.

As you entered the military camp with Zhao Wu, you found Cheng Chuliang hadn’t yet left. You immediately asked, "Brother Chuliang, why haven’t you left? Are you waiting for me?"

"Of course, haha, Brother Luo, you might not know this, but from today onwards, we are brothers in the same battle line. I went through a lot of effort to get you assigned to my infantry regiment." In the Great Tang Army, one regiment had ten battalions, totaling twenty-five thousand soldiers. Cheng Chuliang patted your shoulder, "Let’s go report to the Military Department."

"Right, should these soldiers still follow me?"

"Of course, who would dare to fight you for them? Even if they tried, they probably wouldn’t succeed." Cheng Chuliang looked enviously at your troops; after all, your entire battalion was made up of martial artists. If a real fight broke out, a whole battalion might not be a match for these fifty.

"Alright then, brothers, let’s go!"

When Cheng Chuliang led you and your men to a brand-new camp, you were immediately greeted with enthusiastic cheers. Although the previous encounter had been merely a probing charge, it had earned you and your Seventh Battalion a high reputation in the army. At this moment, the soldiers were seeing not your family background, but your personal strength. Though your command capabilities had yet to be demonstrated, your bravery had already won most of the soldiers’ high recognition.

"Hey, is that a woman? How can there be family members in the army?"

Just as Cheng Chuliang was about to formally introduce you, several discordant voices from the crowd shifted attention to Zhao Wu. The regulations of the Great Tang Army didn’t allow privately bringing female relatives, a rule both Zhao Wu and you were aware of. Originally, Zhao Wu intended to revert to Zhao Wu’s appearance but was refused by you. Your request was simple; Zhao Wu would follow you as a personal soldier, and if anyone slandered, they would face your fists.

For this, Cheng Chuliang also warned you but was rejected by you face-to-face, your exact words were: "My mother once mentioned, my mother was also a female hero; who says women are inferior to men?"
