Chapter 1144: Chapter 494: I Need a Mount_2

The old man Chen Kangbao closed his eyes, his face showing a devout expression, "Oh God, please open your eyes and look at skinny me!"

The voice rose by his ears and also echoed in his heart.

Qi Yuan had three choices.

One, "As I Descend Like the Divine," respond to the call.

Two, use his superpower to communicate.

Three, ignore or block out.

"It’s fine, as long as I can summon myself."

Qi Yuan did not choose the first option.

He was too weak now and too lazy to respond.

So, he chose the second option.

"Since that’s the case, I shall fulfill your wish."

After attaining the superpower from Purple Mansion, Qi Yuan could talk with the "voices" he heard, and unexpected things would occur.

Indeed, this skill was especially suitable for the identity of Shen Lin.

Sure enough, Chen Kangbao suddenly opened his eyes and saw a fragrant aroma emanating from the ground before him.

"Is this... this a miracle!"

His prayer had simply been because he was hungry and needed food.

And indeed, God had answered, providing him with food.

The food’s packaging was a bit odd.

It was contained in a cylindrical box, and Chen Kangbao could not recognize the material—it appeared somewhat like paper.

He lifted the paper on top and immediately saw steaming hot food.

"Is this... noodles?" his face filled with anticipation.

"Instant noodles," Qi Yuan replied.

Yes, what appeared before Chen Kangbao was indeed Blue Star’s instant noodles.

"Not right, it’s instant noodles without the seasoning packet!" Qi Yuan felt somewhat speechless.

Without the seasoning packet, could this instant noodles still be edible?

...

Pain, aching all over!

It felt like every inch of her skin had been ravished.

Zhishuang slowly awoke, her face carrying a profound weariness.

Her lush hair was loosely held together by a Blackwood Hairpin, and her eyes showed an unthawable frost. Her slender legs were tightly closed, resembling ice columns.

Ice, cold ice.

To anyone, she felt like ice unmeltable for a thousand years.

She thought of something, her face showing a terrified expression, and her hands frantically started checking, reaching inside her clothes.

Because this pain made her realize something horrific had occurred.

A few moments later, she bit her lip, her eyes filled with cold frost.

She was still a virgin.

Could it be... the son-in-law was incapable?

After tormenting her for so long, he had barely touched her.

But her clothing bore no signs of being undone.

She looked up and immediately saw the familiar figure, sleeping soundly on the carriage.

Looking at Qi Yuan’s face, complex emotions surged in her eyes.

"What... what did you do to me?" Zhishuang couldn’t help but ask coldly.

"Ah? Turned on the air conditioner, why is it a bit cold?" Qi Yuan awoke, stretched lazily, his gaze landing on Zhishuang, "I didn’t do anything; you were just too noisy, so I knocked you out and then turned you into a long spear wrapped around my waist."

"What are you babbling about?" Zhishuang was momentarily stunned.

She was a high-ranking Earth-level Army Commander; how could Qi Yuan, a man of no significant strength, knock her out?

And the idea of being turned into a spear wrapped around a waist was utterly absurd.

Had... had he really been possessed by Strange Spirits, becoming senseless?

She also wondered, how had she suddenly passed out?

At that moment, a proud voice came from outside the carriage.

"Young master, I’ve done what you ordered. The matter of Red Cloud Village has been turned into a storybook..."

After returning from Red Cloud Village, Qi Yuan contemplated his play as Shen Lin.

To accelerate progress, it was necessary first to enhance Shen Lin’s reputation.

Thus, he had crafted the events of Red Cloud Village into a storybook and had Chen Kangbao record it, paying storytellers in taverns to promote it.

Well, if converted to Blue Star terms, he was essentially a self-published book mogul.

Zhishuang suddenly fixed her gaze on Chen Kangbao, her eyes revealing a cautious and wary expression, "You are...?"

Her keen perception immediately recognized something extraordinary about Chen Kangbao.

Though a skinny old man, his hands bore calluses and his posture suggested he might be an Army Commander.

"I am a strategist from Madhouse that the young master hired!" Chen Kangbao answered proudly.

Zhishuang’s face showed astonishment, followed by sudden realization.

She looked at Qi Yuan, her eyes gleaming with a teasing expression, "I didn’t expect that after a few days, my son-in-law’s skills had significantly improved. He even managed to trick a patient in the Madhouse into knocking me out!"

She naturally assumed that Chen Kangbao was the one who knocked her out.

Son-in-law Qi Yuan was just a frail Scholar.

Facing Qi Yuan, Zhi Shuang did not hold back.

She could tell something was off with Chen Kangbao.

Last time, she was caught off guard and knocked out. Now that she was more careful, how could Chen Kangbao attack her successfully?

"What trickery? He’s my follower." Qi Yuan said lazily.

"I am Young Master’s most loyal servant!" Chen Kangbao quickly added.

Zhi Shuang looked at the two men, suspicion in her eyes.

Could the son-in-law... have really gone mad?

His approach was completely different from what she had seen before.

But the son-in-law seemed to have some luck on his side, managing to gain the loyalty of a mad Earth-level Army Commander even in his insanity.

She remembered the conversation with the son-in-law before she fainted. Her tone softened, "Son-in-law, you boldly return to the prefecture, and the matter in Ninghe County, the young lady will personally inquire with Old Zhong!"

These words had layers of meaning.

If it really was Qi Yuan doing something unseemly, the young lady would severely punish him.

If wronged, she would clear Qi Yuan’s name.

If the son-in-law was really wronged and lost his sanity... Zhi Shuang felt a twinge of pity, which soon turned into excitement.

It’s better for the son-in-law to be a bit foolish than continuously causing trouble as before.

At least, he wouldn’t bring disaster upon the young lady.

"This Old Zhong, I need to properly read him the riot act for framing me!" Qi Yuan, still playing the role of the Son-in-law, said angrily.

Zhi Shuang, looking at him, concluded that the son-in-law had gone mad.

Son-in-law had always been cowardly and only nodded and bowed at home, never daring to lose his temper.

Thinking of something, she continued to ask, "Son-in-law, what exactly did you do to me, why does my whole body ache?"

Right now, her entire body was sore, as if she had been through a night of battle.

"You have a bad memory, didn’t I tell you already?" Qi Yuan said casually.

Zhi Shuang didn’t speak.

Indeed, he must be insane.

Then, Qi Yuan looked at Zhi Shuang, his face hopeful, "I want to inquire about something from you!"

"Son-in-law, please speak!" Although Zhi Shuang’s voice was cold, her face still maintained the basic courtesy and respect.

"My wife, I hear she’s a Profound-level Army Commander. Is she strong? Is she fast? What are her standout features in cultivation?" Qi Yuan asked eagerly.

A frosty chill swept over, Zhi Shuang’s face turned ice-cold, "Son-in-law, who made you ask such questions?"

The young lady was not only a beauty on the Bai Xiang Rankings but also a True Disciple of the Heavenly Sect.

Within Ning Country, the Sects and noble clans wielded formidable power, even the Royal Family had to yield to them.

Among them, the Heavenly Sect and the Ancient Thunder Sect were the two most powerful Sects in Ning Country.

These two Sects were constantly fighting, shedding blood in their struggle for the national doctrine’s position.

In a few months, it would be the competition between the True Disciples of the Heavenly Sect and the Ancient Thunder Sect.

Given such a question from Qi Yuan, Zhi Shuang naturally assumed someone was using Qi Yuan to probe the young lady’s capabilities.

"No one, I just wanted to ask."

Look into my sincere big eyes!

Qi Yuan sincerely looked at Zhi Shuang and continued, "As it is said, ’Lv Bu is unmatched on horseback, Dian Wei is unmatched underneath a horse, and Ma Chao’s horsemanship is unmatched.’ So if Lv Bu rode on Ma Chao who rode on Dian Wei, wouldn’t they be invincible?

I just lack a mount, so I intend to emulate the ancients and ride into battle on your young lady!"

Qi Yuan said in all seriousness.

Using a mosquito turned into a Drone, or a bird turned into a Drone, ultimately doesn’t quite work.

So, Qi Yuan had a sudden idea, why not turn a powerful Army Commander into a Drone.

Like the Son-in-law Qi Yuan’s wife, who is a Profound-level Army Commander, although unable to fly.

But... the speed and strength of a Profound-level Army Commander is much greater than that of a mosquito.

He can use his countless changing abilities to turn his wife into a Drone, carrying him into battle.

As for the legs and such, just turn them invisible, considering it akin to low-altitude flight.

Then, cultivate his wife to an Earth-level Army Commander, wouldn’t she be able to fly high then?

Qi Yuan was extremely pleased with his own creativity.

So, he came to inquire about the Son-in-law Qi Yuan’s wife’s strength, speed, and capabilities.

"Are you... serious?" Zhi Shuang’s face was frosty, her expression angry.

"Serious!" Qi Yuan insisted with sincerity.

"You’re despicable!" Zhi Shuang was furious.

She would write to the young lady. Not only was the son-in-law’s mind broken, but he had also become even more despicable!

He actually wanted to ride the young lady!

Although she was a maiden, she understood what "ride" implied. Was he also planning to dismount and kick afterward?

"Do you feel sorry for your young lady, not wanting me to ride her?" Qi Yuan pondered, "It’s a pity, you’re not quite up to it, otherwise I’d ride you instead."
