The Protagonist Stole My Spiritual Roots? The Heroine, Give Me a Good Birth!

21: Protect your sister-in-law?As soon as Chen Xuan approached, Zhou Wan’er leaned directly against him, her red lips exuding fragrance as she whispered in Chen Xuan’s ear:

”After all this time, you’ve played with me for so long, yet you’ve never used the Golden Core Stage’s exclusive ability of ’grasping objects from a distance.’ And... you specifically asked for a Secret Realm slot. Your two wives are too weak to compete for resources, so I guessed it.”

”Is it possible that I just don’t want to do that?” Chen Xuan said, his expression unchanged and his heart calm.

”It’s not impossible, but the probability is small. All your actions indicate that you are not in the Golden Core Stage!” Zhou Wan’er locked her arms around Chen Xuan’s neck and giggled.

”Cough, cough, alright, alright, Sister Zhou, please let go quickly, otherwise, I’m afraid I’ll really have a problem!”

”Really going to have a problem? What kind of problem?” Zhou Wan’er had finally mustered the courage to get close to Chen Xuan; how could she let go? She had to cherish this opportunity.

”Sister Zhou... I need to go back. It’s been too long, don’t let Zhao City Lord...” Chen Xuan couldn’t stand the woman’s offensive any longer and could only flee for now.

(Mainly, it’s the Heavenly Dao’s gaze, otherwise, would I, Chen Xuan, be unable to bear it?)

”Oh, I still have so much to tell you, little brother. Stay with me a little longer!”

Zhou Wan’er pouted with a blush, after all, this was the first time in her life she had done something like this, and with a ’little brother’ so much younger than her. She had truly shown immense courage.

”Cough, cough, Sister, this is the City Lord’s Mansion, after all. If Zhao City Lord finds out, wouldn’t it be bad?” Chen Xuan quickly changed the subject.

”Hmph, what are you thinking? I’m your elder sister, isn’t this very normal!” As soon as this was mentioned, Zhou Wan’er became even angrier.

Chen Xuan was speechless. This woman really didn’t take General Zhao seriously, did she? He really didn’t know what this woman was thinking.

”If you don’t let me go, I’m really going to go completely crazy!” Chen Xuan deliberately put on a serious expression.

”Then come on, I, your elder sister, just like you like this!” Zhou Wan’er locked onto Chen Xuan defiantly, pouting, and whispered softly into his ear with her red lips.

As for why she was so bold, it was because Chen Xuan had placed a Formation he had previously refined. Inside, what was spoken could not be heard outside, but what was spoken outside could be heard inside.

”Damn it, you asked for this!” Chen Xuan was not some protagonist who practiced celibacy and would only ’suddenly’ awaken in the Late Stage.

Zhou Wan’er’s series of actions truly pushed him to his limit, so there was no need to endure any longer! Thereupon, Chen Xuan used force in his wrist, directly pulling apart the distance between them.

”...”

Zhou Wan’er: ”????”

”I need some peace and quiet. Sister Zhou, how about you treat me to some tea instead!”

Just as Zhou Wan’er was puzzled and about to ask, she found her chin being pinched. Before she could react, her red lips were also sealed.

Finally, Chen Xuan thoroughly savored the unique clear tea of the City Lord’s wife. Just as the two were about to continue drinking tea, the sound of a maid knocking on the door came from outside: ”Madam, the Revered Master is here and says he wants to discuss some matters with you.”

The two had no choice but to stop. Chen Xuan put down the teacup, helped Zhou Wan’er tidy herself up, and then walked out of the room expressionlessly.

”Oh, Brother Chen, is the treatment finished today?”

”Yes, your esteemed wife’s condition is almost stable. I plan to go into seclusion soon, so I won’t be coming to treat her next time.”

”This... then is my wife alright?”

”That won’t affect anything. I just checked your esteemed wife’s body, and she is basically fine.”

”That’s good. Thank you, Brother Chen.”

”It’s my duty. I take money to do business for others!”

”By the way, there’s one thing my old brother doesn’t understand. Who is the Secret Realm slot you asked for intended for, Brother Chen?”

”Alas, I’m ashamed to say, it’s for a nephew of my Revered Master, who is essentially my Junior Brother. This Secret Realm isn’t too dangerous, so I plan to let him go there for some experience.”

”I see. Since it’s your Junior Brother, I’m relieved.”

Chen Xuan: ”???”

”Brother Chen, please come!” Seeing Chen Xuan’s confusion, General Zhao directly invited him into Zhou Wan’er’s room.

At this moment, Zhou Wan’er was already bundled up tightly, with only her wrists and neck visible.

”What does Brother Zhao mean by this?”

”My virtuous brother, don’t rush. Your elder brother intends to let your sister-in-law also go to the Secret Realm, but I’m afraid something might happen to her, so I’d like to ask your Junior Brother to escort her along the way.”

”What? I have to go to the Secret Realm too? I’m just a Mortal. Are you sending me to my death?” Zhou Wan’er said, looking at General Zhao.

She actually wanted to go, but she had no reason to, so she had to refuse.

”I also think it’s inappropriate. My Junior Brother’s cultivation is still shallow; how can he protect... sister-in-law!”

”My virtuous brother, don’t refuse yet. My City Lord’s Mansion will certainly send people there as well. If your Junior Brother accompanies her on this trip, it will definitely be more secure!” General Zhao directly ignored Zhou Wan’er’s question and spoke to Chen Xuan.

”This... it still depends on sister-in-law’s wishes. Doesn’t she not want to go?”

”My virtuous brother, you are mistaken. Your sister-in-law is not well. There is a spiritual spring in that Secret Realm with the ability to nourish the body. If she bathes in it, she will certainly become strong and healthy!”

General Zhao had a righteous expression, but Chen Xuan knew his true intentions. It was nothing more than him feeling that extracting blood in Flame Feather City was not safe enough, and that the Secret Realm was truly worry-free.

He was desperate to become complete. Although he cherished Zhou Wan’er, when it came to his own ’thing,’ everything else had to make way! As long as he became complete, what did it matter if he lost Zhou Wan’er? Weren’t there two beautiful women in Chen Xuan’s home? They were just there to raise for himself! Moreover, his actions, ’theoretically,’ wouldn’t cause Zhou Wan’er to die; it would just make her weak.

Chen Xuan also frowned. This was completely different from the original text. It was probably a slot that Qin Feng had freed up, which was now given to Zhou Wan’er!

Unlike General Zhao, Chen Xuan knew clearly that Zhou Wan’er’s body could not withstand the refinement of vital blood. Once refined, she would surely die!

”No, I’m not going, even if there are others!”

”Wan’er, don’t make a fuss. It wouldn’t be good if my virtuous brother saw a joke.” General Zhao’s tone was gentle, but he gave Zhou Wan’er no chance to refuse.

”Alright, I will inform my Junior Brother and ask him to take good care of sister-in-law along the way.”

”Excellent.” General Zhao clapped his hands and smiled.

...

Chen Xuan bid farewell to General Zhao and returned to his residence. Although he tried his best to appear nonchalant, his heart was surging.

Zhou Wan’er, that enchantress, had lit a fire in his heart, and just as he was about to ’explode and burn,’ General Zhao arrived! Now he had to use Lin Shuiyao’s unique spiritual water to extinguish this inner fire.
