My Wife is A Sword God

Chapter 823: Companionship Before Departure:

Ever since the Heavenly Tower’s National Teacher used his own Destiny Star to shatter the origin world of that accursed being, existences like the Heaven Soul have gone into hiding, no longer taking offensive action.

In the desolate lands without sun or moon, the endless crimson abysses – the numbers of the deathless monstrosities have plummeted sharply.

They can no longer endlessly replenish their ranks, only these remaining few exist now.

This also means their deathless resurrection abilities have been severely restricted. If they perish continuously, they will truly vanish from the three realms!

Heavenly Soul waved his hand, and the Giant Eyeball was suddenly blown away, smashing into a massive soaring boulder.

“If not for you imbecile, we would not have ended up in this predicament! Originally we could have fully released the Great One within a month, but now it’s been indefinitely delayed!”

The other beings looked on coldly, the myriad faces covering their forms all displaying indifferent scorn.

Black blood gushed from the shattered body of the Heaven’s Eye, its clash with the Heavenly Tower’s National Teacher having already inflicted irreparable grave wounds. This latest injury only compounded its damage.

In its current state, it could no longer divine the heavens as it once could.

“This failure was my mistake. I fell for his deceitful ploy. But looking at the outcome, the gains still outweigh the losses.”

“The Heavenly Tower’s National Teacher is dead, so the Imperial City’s seal must be weakened. With only the Divine Guardian remaining, it can hold for at most one year.”

“During this year, we can rest and recuperate temporarily, and wait for the emergence of the source of the Primordial Essence of Heavenly Dao, which will be the time for the reopening of the three realms.”

The Heaven Soul’s expression remained ugly. What was originally a one-month wait had now been dragged out to a full year!

But given the current circumstances, they truly had no better option.

The rift from the shattered world lingered like an unfading scar hovering over the three realms, leaving all living beings restless and uneasy.

Whenever they gazed at that rift, it was like staring into the abyss, the seeping wails emanating from within like a doomsday countdown for the world’s end.

The Rakshasa Clan that had fused with the monstrosities began losing control of their bodies, launching offensives against the Great Qian’s four domains.

To preserve herself, the Rakshasa Queen directly chose to cooperate with the Great Qian, unexpectedly becoming the main force suppressing this threat.

Without the backing of an existence like Heaven’s Eye and having lost their deathless abilities, this threat was quickly eliminated by the combined forces, causing no major impact to the Great Qian.

The three realms seemed to enjoy a brief period of tranquility – if not for that rift overhead.

Within the Qin Manor, Anya met worriedly with Liu Jianli and Cang Feilan.

“Elder Sisters, don’t you think Husband has been acting strangely these past few days?”

Liu Jianli and Cang Feilan exchanged glances. After pondering, the latter said, “Husband has indeed been a bit off compared to before.”

After a pause, she added: “…at night.”

Upon hearing this, Anya’s lovely face flushed red. Was this really something to casually mention? Though it was factual, for her there wasn’t much difference – she couldn’t last long either way.

Shaking her head to dispel the embarrassed thoughts, she composed herself and said: “That’s not what I meant. Ever since Husband returned from the Heavenly Tower last time, he hasn’t left the Qin Manor and has instead stayed with us this whole time. Didn’t you two notice?”

Her words made Liu Jianli and Cang Feiloan recall their recent days. Previously, they had been absorbed in cultivation, not paying much attention.

With two children being looked after by the maternal families, and Husband always busied by mundane matters requiring travel, his presence or absence hadn’t seemed noteworthy.

But prompted by Anya’s remark, it did indeed seem that way.

Liu Jianli’s exquisite brows furrowed slightly. Having been married to Qin Feng for so long, she understood his character too well. For him to act this way could only indicate one thing – he was about to do something dangerous again, and intended to hide it from them!

Seeing her expression, Cang Feilan instantly grasped the implication, her face turning frighteningly cold.

“Let’s go find him!”

“Riding the big horse! Riding the big horse!” Little Qin Xiao sat atop Qin Feng’s shoulders, swaying back and forth in utter glee.

Beside them, Qin Lan pouted while sucking her finger enviously. In her crisp voice she said, “Daddy, daddy, I want to ride the big horse too!”

Qin Xiao pulled a face. “No way, daddy is mine!”

Before he finished speaking, Qin Feng stood up and pushed him down. Qin Xiao sat on the ground with a dazed face.

As if! A little padded jacket was no match for the cotton-stuffed baby. Qin Feng scooped up Qin Lan, who had two tiny horns on her forehead, and nuzzled her cheek before hoisting her up on his shoulders high in the air.

Qin Xiao was so angry that he stood up and started to attack with a headbutt, but was suddenly pressed on the forehead by Qin Feng. No matter how he waved his arms, he could not move forward any further, and he almost cried in grievance.

At this moment, three figures came over. After Qin Xiao saw it, he cried and said: “Mother, second mother, third mother, daddy is bullying me!”

This little scoundrel… Qin Feng shuddered, hastily squatting down to scoop Qin Xiao up, consoling him soothingly, “Daddy was just playing. Be good now.”

Feeling the three wives’ gazes on him, Qin Feng’s scalp went numb. Was this the rhythm of a joint interrogation?

Liu Jianli’s ruby lips parted slightly. “Ningshuang, please take Xiao and Lan away first. We need to discuss something with their father.”

Sensing the tense atmosphere, Lan Ningshuang didn’t dare ask more, leading the two children out slowly.

Bang!

The door closed, leaving an eerie silence behind.

“Wife…what’s wrong?” Qin Feng’s voice trembled slightly.

“What are you going to do again?” Liu Jianli gazed at him calmly, though tumultuous emotions churned in her eyes.

She had heard Anya’s account and sensed the inexplicable hollowness when the rift appeared. Putting the pieces together, it wasn’t hard to deduce that some crisis had befallen the Heavenly Tower’s National Teacher, and the other world beyond that rift might be the sword hanging over their heads.

Qin Feng’s gaze swept over his three wives, their burning stares making him smile wryly.

“I had intended to tell you all tomorrow before leaving, but it seems I must explain sooner.”

In truth, after learning the truth from the Heaven Burial Organization’s leader, he had already contacted the Ghost Lord.

He would separate his soul from his body through the Path of the Entire World method and enter the Yellow Springs River – no matter how bleak the prospects or how one-in-a-hundred the chances of survival.

Because he wanted to save the three realms, to save this world where those he cherished resided.

And these past few days he had indulged himself in a selfish desire – to spend these final moments accompanying his family before departing.

Upon grasping the full situation, Liu Jianli and the others wore expressions of shock.

“Husband, you…”
