Chapter 283: A Heartbroken Xiao Yu, A Peaceful Life
Wu Tian gently wiped the tears from Xiao Yu's face, feeling somewhat helpless. Her eyes were once again red and swollen, but fortunately, things hadn't turned out as bad as everyone initially feared. That was the only reason why her fragile nerves hadn't completely collapsed. Instead, she leaned against Wu Tian's shoulder, her delicate figure trembling as she wept silently.
The other women in the room watched without any signs of jealousy or displeasure. Even Medusa, who wasn't particularly familiar with Xiao Yu, remained indifferent.
After all, back when she and Wu Tian emerged from the magma world, she had already noticed this gentle woman. For an entire year, Xiao Yu had never stopped visiting Wu Tian's statue, gazing at it with longing eyes. That level of devotion was undeniable it was simply Wu Tian who hadn't formally accepted her.
As a queen, Medusa truly couldn't understand why her husband wasn't taking in more women.
He was powerful enough why not have multiple wives and concubines?
In fact, he didn't even qualify for the term "three wives and four concubines" yet.
Right now, he only had her as his wife.
Xun'er was just his girlfriend.
Hu Jia and Han Yue? They were merely bedwarmers.
Qing'er and Man'er from the Sky Serpent Mansion, though both Dou Huang powerhouses, were merely personal attendants.
As for Qing Lin, who could control sixth rank magical beasts, she was more like a younger sister.
Xiao Yi Xian? She was nothing more than a confidante.
And this Xiao Yu?
Just a pitifully devoted woman…
Cough cough.
If Wu Tian knew that this was how his wife saw his relationships, he'd probably have a lot to say.
Xun'er, who had been silently watching, also had reddened eyes.
The destruction of the Xiao Clan wasn't just news it was a sign.
A sign that soon… she, too, would have to leave.
Wu Tian gently spoke to Xiao Yu, his voice soft:
"Yu'er, go and tell Xiao Ning and Xiao Mei about this. As members of the Xiao Clan, they deserve to know the truth."
Surrounded by the gazes of the other women, Wu Tian felt a little guilty. After all, having a beautiful woman throw herself into his arms and feeling the warmth of her long, slender legs pressed against him…
It wasn't something any man could easily withstand.
"Mm…"
Xiao Yu blushed deeply and quickly fled the room, her face as red as a ripe peach.
She had completely forgotten her status as a senior member of the Sunfire Alliance!
Wu Tian sighed inwardly.
What other positions can I create for these women?
Breaking a woman's heart… wasn't something a mighty Guardian Spirit like himself should ever do!
But that was a problem for later.
Right now, there was something more important to handle.
His gaze shifted toward Xun'er, whose radiant eyes shimmered with an unshed crystal like glow.
Wu Tian's chest tightened.
He knew very well…
Now that the Xiao Clan had been destroyed, Xun'er would soon have to leave.
With no more reason to remain in Jia Nan Academy, the Gu Clan would undoubtedly send people to bring her back.
And once that happened, she wouldn't have a choice.
The Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's Jade had vanished without a trace, and the Soul Hall's presence had made the Gu Clan uneasy. They wouldn't let their precious young miss stay here any longer.
Yet…
Wu Tian wasn't saddened by her departure.
After all, Xun'er was just going home.
At most, she'd be gone for a little while before returning.
And if she didn't return fast enough?
Wu Tian would simply go get her himself.
Gu Yuan, the old patriarch of the Gu Clan, undoubtedly knew of Wu Tian's existence.
And he must have a lot of questions.
Wu Tian had no problem "explaining" things to him when the time came.
That was why he wasn't in a hurry to leave.
Instead, he let Medusa leave first.
Well…
That was just for show.
They were never truly apart.
Medusa, fully aware that Xun'er would soon be leaving, offered to transform back into her Seven Colored Heaven Swallowing Python form so Wu Tian and Xun'er could have some alone time.
Now, the small, sleek, and smooth serpent coiled lazily around Wu Tian's arm.
Her intelligent eyes glowed playfully as she slithered back and forth.
Wu Tian was completely enamored by his wife's thoughtfulness.
Having a queen like her willing to make sacrifices for him…
This was peak happiness.
But…
Hopefully, she wouldn't change her mind later.
Otherwise, if she suddenly decided to "punish" him by denying him certain nightly privileges, then Wu Tian would be in serious trouble!
With Medusa temporarily absent, Wu Tian's days became much more… exciting.
Medusa's aura had always been intimidating, even though she allowed the other women to share a bed with Wu Tian.
Still, they had always been reserved around her.
But now…
Without her around, things had become far more passionate.
His nights were filled with both pain and pleasure.
And every morning, as he woke up, he could feel both warmth and coolness on either side of him.
How much longer could this kind of life last?
…
During the day, Wu Tian trained peacefully, and his Dou Qi steadily improved.
With Fallen Heart Flame aiding him, his cultivation speed had increased several times over.
However, reaching Seven Star Dou Huang within a few days was still impossible.
He was already at the peak of mid stage Dou Huang progress beyond this would require far more time and effort.
As for his soul power…
It had already reached the level of a One Star Dou Zun.
Yes, a genuine Dou Zun!
Of course, Wu Tian had never revealed this strength to anyone.
The title of "Yan Zun" was more than just a name he truly had the power to back it up.
Time passed swiftly.
Before he knew it, seven days had flown by.
Xun'er, naturally, knew that Wu Tian was aware of her impending departure.
But neither of them had spoken about it.
That morning, she quietly took Wu Tian's hand and led him deep into the mountains.
A morning walk through the wilderness…
It was just like that old saying a new day, full of life and energy.
The two of them lay side by side on the lush green grass, basking in the warm morning sunlight.
The moment felt so serene so perfect.
But deep in their hearts, both were reluctant to say goodbye.
The scenery was breathtaking.
The grass beneath them spread like a green carpet across the land, stretching as far as the eye could see.
Just ahead, a wide mountain gorge lay below, shrouded in soft mist, making it look like a fairyland.
Lying together on the grass, the sunlight warming their skin, a drowsy, comforting sensation filled the air.
Xun'er turned her head slightly, her jewel like golden eyes gazing at Wu Tian.
A gentle smile curled at the corners of her lips.
After a moment, she whispered:
"Wu Tian gege, I…"
Before she could finish
A sudden, tender kiss silenced her.
Her golden eyes widened for a moment before softly closing, as if the entire world had melted away.
In the warmth of the sun, wrapped in each other's embrace, nothing else seemed to matter.
Wu Tian already knew what she was going to say.
The "donkeys" from the Gu Clan were coming to take her away.
But before they arrived…
They needed to see for themselves just how much she belonged to him.
And just as expected
Powerful auras rapidly approached from the distance.
Wu Tian smirked.
Time to make those fools regret ever showing up.
