Chapter 510: 502

“`

Spirit creatures generally have straightforward thinking and are inherently kind, making them easy to control.

If he could create a large group of spirit creature subordinates, his power would surge. His desire to build a secure lair would also be realized more quickly.

At this thought, he immediately infused several herbs with the Cultivation Power of the Everlasting Spring Technique until they reached their limit of endurance before stopping.

Lying in bed, holding his delicate wife, his mind was still pondering the matter of awakening the herbs.

If there were a second herb among those that had been awakened, then it would mean that the Everlasting Spring Technique he was practicing truly possessed the ability to awaken plants, helping them to open their spiritual intelligence.

If no other herbs were awakened, then it would mean that the Dogtail Grass was very special, and it had fortuitously achieved spiritual intelligence.

This was also a stroke of fortune for it.

“Husband, are you preoccupied with something?”

Wang Wanyan lay her head on one of his arms, resting on his firm chest, the two appearing very much in love.

In truth, since their marriage, Qin Niu had always doted on his wives, and the feelings among the three were excellent. They had never quarreled, let alone had any conflict.

“In less than ten days, we will be setting off for Elixir City to attend the Water and Land Dharma Assembly. I’m a bit worried that the competition will be too fierce, and we will end up mere also-rans. If any one of us can seize an opportunity for Immortal Fate, our Qin Family will be able to rise even faster.

Do you know?

From the day I secretly fell in love with you, I’ve been thinking that I must protect you well in the future.

But in this cruel world, without strength, all is but empty talk.

I come from humble beginnings, without advanced Cultivation Techniques or a distinguished family background. To reach today, I’ve fought alone every step of the way. Don’t look now, as our family has become the strongest presence in Jade Stream Town, and we even fear no one in the Black Tiger Gang’s territory. But in front of those truly top-tier powerhouses, we’re no different from ants.

They can make us live or die at their whim.

I do not like this feeling of having my fate controlled by others.”

Qin Niu spoke with his wife, sharing his pillow talk.

Many of his true feelings, he never revealed to others. However, after marriage, as his affection for Wang Wanyan and Tang Caixian deepened, he would often share some of his inner thoughts with them.

But as men are, they tend to share only the good news, not the bad.

In front of their wives, few are willing to admit weakness. They would not talk about the grievances they faced outside either.

“Hehe, so you had a secret crush on me long ago, husband?”

“A gentleman loves the fair lady. You’re so beautiful and kind-hearted, any normal man would like you! Besides, you always brought me food and even gave me money, who could resist that? I unknowingly developed a liking for you.”

Qin Niu admitted frankly.

He had already secretly fancied his neighbor, Wang Wanyan, at about the age of fourteen.

Only at that time, Wang Wanyan was a young mistress of a wealthy family, while Qin Niu was a poor boy with nothing to his name, even if he aspired to be a Wart Toad craving swan meat, he was utterly out of reach.

The disparity between their statuses was too great.

It was only later, when his strength and standing increased somewhat, that he dared to act on his inappropriate desires.

“What if I hadn’t married you? Would you still protect me?”

Wang Wanyan looked up at his face.

“Of course, I would! I’m not given to much talking, but I always remember those who are good to me. You helped me during my toughest time and never exposed me, protecting my fragile pride. In my eyes, you are a celestial fairy. No matter which man you married, I would’ve silently protected you for life.”

Qin Niu spoke earnestly.
