Villainous Cao Cao: Inheriting Everything from the Chosen One

116: Love requires learning to be tolerant.Upon hearing this, Yun Shang hurriedly bowed to Cao Bu and said in a low voice, ”Big Brother, it was Yun Shang’s fault. Thank you for saving my life.”

A gentle smile spread across Cao Bu’s face as he waved his hand, ”It was just a small effort, Younger Brothers Wife, there is no need to be so polite.”

”As for Brother Feng, there is no need for apologies or thanks. We are all family; there is no need to draw such clear lines.”

As he spoke, he deliberately cast a provocative glance at Gu Feng.

He looked as arrogant as one could possibly be.

”You, you...”

Gu Feng pointed at Cao Bu, his brain instantly congested with rage, his body stiffened abruptly, and he fell straight backward.

Yun Shang instinctively wanted to help him up, but upon second thought, she withdrew her hand and let him fall heavily to the ground.

Afterward, she turned to Leng Yue and said, ”Mother, since things have come to this, I want to divorce Gu Feng.”

Leng Yue refused without a second thought, ”No! Even if Fenger becomes paralyzed in the future, you cannot abandon him!”

”But...”

”There are no buts!”

Yun Shang still wanted to say something, but was directly interrupted by Leng Yue.

How could she possibly let the two of them sever their relationship?

What if this woman, once free from the constraints of her status, latches directly onto Cao Bu?

She would rather have one less woman around Cao Bu than one more.

At this moment, Gu Yin stepped forward and said, ”Concubine Leng, I want to marry Cao Bu. I ask for your approval.”

Since the two had already declared their feelings, she naturally could no longer call Cao Bu ”Big Brother.”

Leng Yue pondered for a moment, then shook her head and said, ”Put this matter aside for now. We will discuss it after your mother comes out of seclusion.”

Gu Yin looked at Cao Bu, seemingly wanting to push for it further.

But Leng Yue had already issued an order to leave.

”Alright, if there is nothing else, you may all withdraw.”

”As for the matters between you all, no one is allowed to speak of them to the outside world.”

”Bu’er, you stay behind. Adoptive Mother has something to discuss with you.”

Several people left one after another.

Yun Shang glanced at Gu Feng on the ground, her eyes full of disgust, and raised her hand to cast a strand of spiritual power to bind him and carry him out.

The moment she thought about Gu Feng having touched an untransformed Yao Beast, she felt nauseated.

To the point that she now deeply regretted how she could have ever married him.

After everyone had left.

Leng Yue walked straight up, sat on Cao Bu’s lap, and wrapped her arms around his neck.

Cao Bu also took the opportunity to wrap his arms around her slender waist, while his other hand gently caressed her smooth, supple thigh.

”Cao Bu, how could you lay a hand on Yun Shang?”

Leng Yue’s voice carried a hint of resentment, with an undetectable worry hidden in her eyes.

What if Yun Shang were to be attracted by Cao Bu’s abilities and latch onto him?

Cao Bu explained, ”Didn’t I just say, there was a reason for it. Besides, in that situation, was it something a small character like me could resist?”

Leng Yue complained, ”Hmph, I don’t care. You are not allowed to have any contact with them in the future.”

Cao Bu immediately frowned, his tone turning colder, ”Am I giving you too much face?”

Upon hearing this, Leng Yue instantly put on a wronged expression and muttered in a low voice, ”You really are a jerk. I was just having some Life Qi; am I not even allowed to have that little bit of emotion?”

Cao Bu changed the subject and said seriously, ”Do you still love me or not?”

Leng Yue nodded hurriedly, her tone softening, ”Of course I love you.”

Cao Bu continued, ”Since you love me, you should understand that to love someone is to learn to tolerate him, not to restrict him at every turn.”

”Since you truly love me, you should tolerate having other women around me.”

He paused, then continued, ”Just like I am with you; I have never cared about your past.”

”Yue’er, think about it. If it were someone else, like Su Li, I wouldn’t touch her at all.”

”Ever since you declared your feelings to me, I have thought about it carefully.”

”Among all the women, ninety percent of my heart belongs to you, and only the remaining ten percent is shared with other women.”

Hearing these words, Leng Yue’s face was instantly covered in a shy blush. She leaned gently into Cao Bu’s arms and said coquettishly, ”Hmph, I knew it. The person you love most in your heart is me.”

”That is natural.” Cao Bu nodded, his tone laced with seduction, ”Think about it carefully. If the matter between us were exposed, how much public pressure would I have to endure? I definitely wouldn’t be able to eat or sleep well then.”

Leng Yue raised her head, her eyes serious, ”Don’t worry. If things are truly exposed, I will bear all the consequences with you and will never let you face it alone.”

Cao Bu nodded slightly, his tone full of emotion, ”With a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for?”

”Yue’er, to be able to meet you, I have used up all the luck of this lifetime.”

”I, Cao Bu, must be the happiest man in this world.”

”All of this is because of your existence.”

Leng Yue’s cheeks burned, her heart felt sweet, and she said with mock reproach, ”You only know how to say these things to coax me.”

But the face buried in his shoulder was smiling incredibly sweetly.

”Right, Cao Bu, the Materials for the nine revolutions emperor bone rebuilding pill have all been gathered.” Leng Yue restrained her smile and said seriously.

She waved her hand, and hundreds of Materials instantly floated in mid-air.

Cao Bu examined these Materials and asked, ”Are the last two pieces from Lu Chen?”

Leng Yue nodded, ”You don’t say, Lu Chen’s efficiency is truly fast. I had only sent him a message a few days ago, and he already sent someone to deliver them. He also said that once you recover your Dantian, you must tell him.”

Cao Bu sneered inwardly.

This Lu Chen is certainly proactive about his Dantian recovery.

It makes sense; if he cannot become a Great Emperor, both Lu Chen and his System will be wiped out.

”Cao Bu, what do you think about this? Let’s head to the Pill Alliance in three days and ask the Pill Emperor to refine the Medicinal Pill for you,” Leng Yue suggested.

Cao Bu raised his hand and drew the golden emperor bone into his palm. Staring at the runes on it, he said in a deep voice, ”Wait a moment. Let me see if I can comprehend the runes on it.”

The System had long told him that if Gu Feng’s emperor bone could undergo Nirvana three times, it could become an immortal bone.

And the runes born from such an immortal bone all contain powerful immortal arts.

He must get his hands on this thing; perhaps it could become one of the means to kill the Yin and Yang Heavenly Emperor and Lu Chen in the future.

Moreover, the Materials for the emperor venerable pill have not all been found yet. It is the perfect time to use this period to thoroughly comprehend the runes on the emperor bone and see what tricks they hold.

”Alright then, give it a try. If Fenger could comprehend it, I believe you can too.” Leng Yue nodded in agreement.

Cao Bu nodded. Looking at the emperor bone in his hand, a trace of curiosity flashed in his eyes.

He wondered what these runes would yield.

Just then, Leng Yue leaned in close, her tone carrying a hint of ambiguity, ”Cao Bu, shouldn’t we be doing something?”

Cao Bu put away the emperor bone and other Materials, feigning confusion, ”Do what?”

”You know what.”

”I don’t know. What do you want to do?”

”Jerk, you clearly know.”

”I really don’t know.”

”You do know.”

”I don’t know.”

...

Meanwhile, at the Immortal Domain 9527 Mine.

A rough voice echoed throughout the entire mine, ”Everyone, gather at the mine square in half an hour!”

Upon hearing this, the miners stopped the mining picks in their hands one after another and walked numbly toward the square.

There were also those who swung their mining picks faster, wanting to dig up one more Ore in the final half hour.

For every additional one, there was a bit more hope of avoiding punishment.

In a corner of the mine.

Gu Qingtian counted the Immortal Stones in his hand, his voice trembling, ”One, two, three... forty-three, forty-four, forty-five.”

After counting, he looked up at the sky, his face full of ashen despair.

”Still five short.”

He sighed deeply, his heart full of unwillingness, ”Could it be that I, Gu Qingtian, who was invincible for a lifetime in the Lower Realm, really cannot escape capital punishment today?”

Just as he was lamenting in his heart, a familiar figure walked over.

”Brother Qingtian, how is it? Have you gathered the fifty Immortal Stones?”
