After we got married, I relied on my cheap husband to get promoted.

After returning to Nanli Medicine Sect and meeting with the leader, Cheng Jiuge took Zhong Lixiu to find Elder Hesong again, but he didn't expect that Elder Hesong had already gone into seclusion.

Zhong Lixiu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. Cheng Jiuge took him back to the courtyard where she was married. "You go and have a rest first. I have something to ask the leader."

"it is good."

Zhong Lixiu was already very familiar with this place, so he went straight into Cheng Jiuge's room and sat on the couch waiting for her to come back.

Cheng Jiuge went to the head again to ask about Zhongli Xiu, "Uncle head, I have something to ask you. Originally, I wanted to ask Elder Hesong, but he went into seclusion, so I had to come to you."

Ji Wuyu: "What's the matter?"

Cheng Jiuge hesitated for a moment and told Zhong Lixiu's situation, "His pulse... By the way, there is one more thing. When I got married to him, we chose me because of a replacement midway, but Wuji Sword Zong chose my husband because Linxian Taoist, my husband’s master, said that he had a love affair.”

"I'll think about it later, is his current stagnation related to this?" Cheng Jiuge looked at Ji Wuyu.

Ji Wuyu didn't expect such a thing to happen, "I was surprised when he was the one who married Wuji Sword Sect. Zangguang cultivated the ruthless way. Logically speaking, this kind of thing does have an influence, but it's just a marriage, so later It doesn’t matter to me.”

"Was his cultivation ever like this when you first started?"

Cheng Jiuge shook his head, "No, he later succeeded in transcending the tribulation from the Nascent Soul to the out-of-body stage in one fell swoop. It started after the Dao Heart Trial."

Ji Wuyu thought for a long time, "I can't make a decision on this. If you have time, ask him to come over and give me a look."

"it is good."

……

When Cheng Jiuge returned to the yard, she saw smoke coming from the kitchen. She walked over and found that Zhong Lixiu was already boiling water and preparing meals.

What a good husband!
"You're back and it's time to eat." Zhong Lixiu brought the meal to the room, "The water is ready, you can take a shower."

Cheng Jiuge: "Well, let's eat first and you eat too."

"Ah."

After eating and taking a shower, the two of them lay on the bed to rest. "Tomorrow I will take you to show the head master."

Zhong Lixiu: "What?"

Cheng Jiuge: "When I took your pulse, weren't your tendons a little blocked? Let me see how you can fix it later."

Zhong Lixiu was silent for a while, "Okay."

After a while, he turned over and hugged Cheng Jiuge, "You said before... that you would always want me."

Cheng Jiuge:? Why do these words make people blush so much?

"What... want you?"

Zhong Lixiu: "You just don't know how to reconcile with me, right?"

Cheng Jiuge: "No." Although it seems that the hundredth year is coming soon, her original thoughts have changed now. If there are no accidents, she and Zhong Lixiu may just live like this, which is good anyway.

Zhong Lixiu hugged her tightly and said, "Okay."

The next day, Cheng Jiuge took Zhong Lixiu to Ji Wuyu's place. Ji Wuyu felt Zhong Lixiu's pulse. At this time, there seemed to be some movement outside. Cheng Jiuge said, "I'll go out and take a look."

As soon as Cheng Jiuge went out, she saw movement coming from the direction where her senior brother Xiao Cheng was retreating. There were faint dark clouds passing by. It should be that her senior brother was about to undergo a catastrophe.

Cheng Jiuge turned around to go back, but at this moment Ji Wuyu's voice came from inside: "She asked me yesterday if it was related to Qing Jie."

Cheng Jiuge paused when he heard this step.

Zhong Lixiu: "Don't tell her."

Ji Wuyu: "But your cultivation level..." Zhong Lixiu: "I will find a way."

Ji Wuyu: "This can't be hidden."

Zhong Lixiu: "I know, just... don't let her know for the time being."

Cheng Jiuge was stunned for a moment, then pretended to make a noise and walked in, "How's it going?"

Both of them looked at her. Ji Wuyu said, "I'll write a recipe for him to nurse back to health, but he still has to rely on himself." Ji Wuyu glanced at Zhong Lixiu.

Cheng Jiuge: "Okay."

It would take some time for Xiao Cheng to overcome the calamity, and Cheng Jiuge did not watch all the time. She was now giving Zhong Li a decoction according to the prescription written by the master's uncle, but her eyes were empty.

When the medicine came out and made a sizzling sound, Cheng Jiuge came back to his senses. Then he stretched out his hand to pour the medicine, but accidentally got burned again, and then he was in a hurry.

Zhong Lixiu came over and saw the redness on her hands, and immediately grabbed her hands to get cold water, "I can do it myself from now on."

Cheng Jiuge looked at his face and said nothing.

After the medicine was ready, Zhong Lixiu poured it into the bowl himself. When it was almost cold, he took a sip. Cheng Jiuge was thinking that this person seemed to have been taking medicine.

"Were you often injured before?" Cheng Jiuge asked suddenly, "That was before we got married. Did you take medicine often?"

Zhong Lixiu shook his head, "No." The main reason was that he had to carry it when he was injured before, but now he has a Taoist companion who cares about him.

Cheng Jiuge: "Yeah, no. You seem to have taken medicine many times since our marriage." Cheng Jiuge lowered his eyes and didn't know what he was thinking.

Zhong Lixiu: "Well, because of you." Because you care.

Cheng Jiuge: "Well, yes, because of me." Cheng Jiuge raised his head and looked at him, "I understand."

Zhong Lixiu: "What?"

Cheng Jiuge: "Your cultivation has not improved because of me."

Zhongli Xiu's heart tightened, "No, it's my relationship."

Cheng Jiuge shook his head, "It is indeed related to you, but it is also related to me. I heard what you and the head master said. I had thought about it before, but I was not sure. I didn't expect it to be because of love. The matter of love."

Cheng Jiuge looked at him, "Would it be better if you and I were separated? For us cultivators, it's not that important whether we have feelings or not. Compared to ascension, the latter is the most important, right?"

Zhongli Xiu's heart tightened, "...you think our feelings are not important?"

Cheng Jiuge nodded, "Yes, it's not that important!"

Zhong Lixiu grabbed her hand and said, "You said you would not reconcile with me."

Cheng Jiuge pulled his hand away and stood up, "If you don't want to be apart, just go back to the beginning. You are you, I am me, you live by yourself, I live by myself, I do my own things, and yours You can do it yourself. You don’t need to tutor me in swordsmanship.”

Cheng Jiuge looked at Zhong Lixiu, "What do you think? Or I'm in Nanli Medicine Sect and you go back to Wuji Sword Sect. We can live separately."

Zhong Lixiu suddenly stood up, "No!"

Cheng Jiuge was really considering this issue seriously. Zhong Lixiu couldn't improve in cultivation because of the love tribulation. Wouldn't it be fine as long as there was no "love"?

Zhong Lixiu looked at her seriously, "Madam, do you like me?"

Cheng Jiuge murmured, "She probably likes him." She probably likes him, but maybe this "like" will fade after a long time, right?

Zhong Lixiu: "So you think feelings can be taken back at will?" Zhong Lixiu tried not to be angry, but his eyes suddenly turned red. He grabbed Cheng Jiuge's hand and held him in his arms. "Cheng Jiuge, that's not allowed." (End of chapter)
