“The Mu Family? They actually forced you to marry an old man who’s on his deathbed?”

“Even if I am a daughter of a concubine, aren’t I still a person? Why should those born of the main lineage be seen as superior, while those born of the branches are seen as lower? The world shouldn’t operate this way.”

“Anyone who dares to disrespect my partner, even a foundation establishment family, will pay the price.”

“Everything turns in cycles, don’t look down on the young who are poor. Once I become a Golden Core cultivator, I’ll make sure the Mu family and the Liu family pay the price. The Mu family will regret forcing you to get married.”

Zhou Sui clenched his fist, looking very angry as he made grand promises to Mu Ziyi.

“My lord, you are too good to me.”

With tears in her eyes, Mu Ziyi looked at Zhou Sui, deeply moved, feeling wonderfully warm on the inside.

Although she knew it might be a long time before her lord would become a Golden Core cultivator, the fact that he had such an intention made her feel satisfied.

At this moment, her love for him was skyrocketing.

“What are you talking about? Isn’t it natural for me to treat my partner well?”

Zhou Sui looked deeply into Mu Ziyi’s eyes.

He had no choice. Who could resist when Mu Ziyi looked so delicate but had such a broad mind? It made sense whatever this beautiful female cultivator did.

“My lord, love me once more.”

Mu Ziyi looked shyly at Zhou Sui.

Hearing this, Zhou Sui found it impossible to resist. Any normal man wouldn’t have been able to.

……

Not far away, Xia Jingyan, who was hiding in her own room, had a red face. She also noticed the activity in Zhou Sui’s bedroom. She didn’t know why, but she felt angry.

“Sister Ji, you… you actually let that shameless man take a concubine, and it’s Sister Mu at that. Isn’t that too good for him? It’s outrageous!”

Xia Jingyan gritted her teeth. She thought Zhou Sui was a libertine who had no restraint.

If she had known this scoundrel didn’t have good intentions from the start, she wouldn’t have agreed to live with him at a discounted price. She suspected he planned from the start to kill two birds with one stone.

She had no idea that this little scoundrel would actually succeed — he even had women in both of his arms.

“It’s okay. I agreed to this. After all, it’s a critical time for me to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm. I can’t keep my husband frustrated, can I? At least it’s better to let oneself be at an advantage than others. And Sister Mu doesn’t seem to mind, she seems rather pleased.”

Ji Bingyu smiled slightly.

What?!

Upon hearing this, Xia Jingyan was full of jealousy. Why should I let Sister Mu lead when I could benefit myself?

Yet she didn’t back down. “Sister Ji, I think it’s better to be cautious. If you set a precedent, this scoundrel will marry in droves. And if at a later stage, he marries a bunch of other women and turns the house upside down, what then?”

“He is only at Qi Cultivation fourth Layer now, but once he reaches Late Qi Cultivation or even the Foundation Establishment Realm, won’t he have lots and lots of wives?”

“Indeed, that might be a problem. How about this, Sister Xia, why don’t you help me by marrying him? That way he might focus on his family and not stray.”

Ji Bingyu said with a smile.

“Me, m-me? I refuse! Who would want to marry such a fickle man?” Xia Jingyan’s pretty face went red, and her heart beat wildly. She’d almost agreed, but instinctively refused.

She would die before uttering such shameless words.

However, Ji Bingyu understood her sister’s thoughts quite clearly. If she really disliked the idea, she would have shown disgust, not shyness.

But it was probably because her husband was too charming — her two sisters were completely infatuated.

But this might also be a good thing.

After all, their interests were intertwined. If they could become a family, they would naturally become closer.

But judging from Sister Xia’s expression, she may need some time to accept the idea.

……

Happy times always pass quickly.

In the blink of an eye, a month had passed.

Mu Ziyi quickly adapted to her status as a concubine and moved into Zhou Sui’s room.

As for Xia Jingyan? She pretended not to see anything and always stayed in her bedroom to practice cultivation. It seemed like she would be able to advance to Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer in no time.

As for Zhou Sui, he of course was also practicing cultivation at home.

Although his Spiritual Root had advanced to the eighth grade, it was still a Lower Grade Spirit Root. Despite being better than before, his cultivation progress was still slow.

However, thanks to dual cultivation with his two Dao partners, as well as the aid of the Spiritual Wine, his cultivation progress wasn’t too slow. He was making rapid progress towards Qi Cultivation Fifth Layer.

In comparison to the average Qi Cultivation Fourth Layer cultivator, this was an incredibly fast progression.

“Fellow Daoist Zhou.”

At this moment, their neighbor Zhang Cheng suddenly came over, his expression tense. “I don’t know if you know this, but last night, the family of three of Fellow Daoist Bai nearby were all murdered. Their home was also completely looted.”

“What? Murdered at home? Who has the guts to commit such a crime inside Misty Cloud City?”

Upon hearing this news, Zhou Sui was shocked. He had been at home concentrating on his cultivation and knew nothing of what was happening outside. He had never imagined that the security situation could deteriorate to this point.

Even at home, there were rogues who would come to commit murder.

He knew that fellow daoist Bai was a Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer cultivator and his Dao partner was a Qi Cultivation Fifth Layer cultivator. Though they weren’t powerful, not many would dare to provoke them.

Yet even so, they were killed by thugs. This was outrageous.

Before, these thugs only dared to make their move in the wilderness, but now they could homicide even inside the city.

“Fellow Daoist Zhou, you might not be aware that recently, the Immortal Mist Sect has taken a large number of cultivators deep into the Cloud Mist Mountain Range. Many cultivators from the security team of Misty Cloud City have also gone. Once they left, there weren’t enough people to maintain the security in the city. Hence, the brigand cultivators have started to act recklessly and began to rob and kill the cultivators within the city.”

Zhang Cheng was very worried. “After all, without the security team of the city, the other Loose Cultivators don’t take the rules of Misty Cloud City seriously, which leads to the increasingly precarious security situation within the city.”

“Fellow Daoist Bai mentioned that when he went out to buy food, he was targeted by some outland cultivators. Who would have thought that he would be robbed that very night?”

“I see.”

Zhou Sui immediately understood why the security situation in Misty Cloud City was so bad. It was all because a large number of cultivators had left Misty Cloud City to hunt monsters and pave roads deep into the Cloud Mist Mountain Range.

This led to few cultivators left to maintain security in the city.

Some outland Loose Cultivators seeing this situation, naturally began to pluck up the courage to start robbing the cultivators within the city who had no background. Therefore, the city was in a state of high tension.
