The Great Qin: Starting with marrying Jingni, I began my quest for immortality.

Although they were preparing to go to Xinzheng, Jiang Chuan and Ru Shuang did not rush to leave after holding their wedding and officially getting married.

This is Jiang Chuan's home after all, and Ru Shuang has experienced a period of peace here that she has never felt before. She plans to stay a while longer and doesn't want to leave in a hurry.

In the following days, Jiang Chuan settled into married life.

During the day, he would tease Yan'er and cultivate their relationship, while at night he would cultivate his relationship with Yan'er's mother.

Initially, Jiang Chuan only intended to cultivate a relationship.

However, after the second night, on the morning of the third day, Jiang Chuan discovered that his internal strength had increased again. He gradually realized that something seemed wrong.

Chapter Twenty: Helping My Husband Take a Concubine

How exactly does internal energy come about?

At first, Jiang Chuan was puzzled by this question.

Now, what puzzles him is how his internal energy increases.

After initially acquiring internal energy, he tried to cultivate it, but found that the efficiency of his self-cultivation was still terribly low. However, he did not belittle himself or wallow in self-pity. For him, although he did not know how internal energy came about, having internal energy and going from being mediocre to being competent, even if it was only at the bottom, was enough to make him happy.

At least in the martial arts world, it's not at the bottom anymore.

But now, my internal strength has inexplicably increased again.

This surprised Jiang Chuan, but also raised countless questions.

He wanted to figure out how his internal energy had increased.

On the third day, he told Ru Shuang about his confusion.

Unfortunately, even with the inner strength of a master like Ru Shuang constantly circulating within Jiang Chuan's body, she was still unable to fully explore the secrets within him. In fact, according to Ru Shuang's detection, Jiang Chuan's meridians were narrow and his physical constitution was extremely poor. Under normal circumstances, he would need to cultivate for at least several years before he could develop his first strand of inner strength.

As a result, Jiang Chuan not only cultivated internal energy so quickly, but his internal energy also increased in a short period of time.

Combined with Jiang Chuan's terrifying swordsmanship talent.

It is obvious that Jiang Chuan harbors a great secret.

But Ru Shuang is clearly not the person who can uncover this secret.

It continued until the fourth day.

Jiang Chuan figured out the key to it himself.

Because on the fourth day, his internal strength increased again.

Combining this with what he had done before his internal strength increased in the past few days, Jiang Chuan vaguely grasped a sliver of the truth.

“Although it’s absurd, I roughly know why,” Jiang Chuan said to Ru Shuang.

"what?"

Jiang Chuan then emphasized, "The reason lies in our intercourse."

The word "intercourse" reached Ru Shuang's ears, and her ears immediately turned red.

At night, there was nothing unusual, since it was pitch black.

But when Jiang Chuan said those words to her in broad daylight, she immediately felt embarrassed and embarrassed. "Husband, what are you saying?"

This reason is simply hard to believe.

“That’s why I said it’s outrageous.” Jiang Chuan said seriously, “Whether you believe it or not, this might be the truth.”

"If you don't believe me, let's do it now and see if my internal strength has increased."

Jiang Chuan uttered such blunt words.

Ru Shuang immediately spat out a curse. In broad daylight, she ultimately couldn't bring herself to do such a thing.

The battle continued into the night.

Another day passed.

As frost rose in the early morning, she reached out and placed her hand on Jiang Chuan's back, sensing the internal energy within him.

"Perhaps, it really is as you say." Ru Shuang's expression suddenly became very strange.

Although the underlying principles are unknown, Jiang Chuan's internal strength has indeed improved again.

Jiang Chuan's internal strength was originally only considered low-level, but with the fierce battles at night during this period, his internal strength has continued to grow, and now he is not far from being third-level.

However, this method of increasing internal strength is far too absurd and outrageous.

For the first time, Ru Shuang experienced what "outrageous" meant.

“So, I was right!” Jiang Chuan turned his head, looking at Ru Shuang’s beautiful face, and said.

"I'm sorry to trouble you during this time, Madam. I would also appreciate your help in my cultivation."

"Although this is absurd, I can feel that my growth in strength is genuine. Perhaps, before long, my strength will surpass that of the lady."

This sounds incredible.

It should be noted that Jiang Chuan is currently only at the bottom level. There are still four or five realms between him and Ru Shuang: third-rate, second-rate, first-rate, and innate. Only then can he reach the Grandmaster realm that Ru Shuang is at.

But Ru Shuang didn't think Jiang Chuan was exaggerating.

She saw many miracles in Jiang Chuan.

If Jiang Chuan is given enough time, he might really be able to surpass her.

Meanwhile, regarding Jiang Chuan's statement about resolving the problem stemming from the Luo Wang network at its root, Ru Shuang was also full of confidence because of Jiang Chuan's confident tone that day.

Ru Shuang would naturally not refuse to help Jiang Chuan cultivate.

So, almost every night after nightfall, Jiang Chuan and Ru Shuang would engage in a fierce battle.

Jiang Chuan originally planned to hold the battle during the day.

But Ru Shuang didn't like daytime, so Jiang Chuan had no choice but to give up.

Time passed, and the days went by until Ru Shuang's relatives came to visit. Considering their kinship, Jiang Chuan decided not to fight with Ru Shuang anymore. After all, harmony brings wealth, and it's most important for a family to be at peace.

Jiang Chuan's internal strength increased again during this period, and now he has reached the level of a third-rate martial artist.

That's incredible.

In such a short time, without consuming any rare and precious herbs, relying solely on fighting and sustaining oneself through battle, Jiang Chuan has managed to elevate himself to the third-rate level. He is truly exceptional.

After being upgraded to a third-rate level, Jiangchuan's combat strength improved.

For Ru Shuang, the initial lose-lose situation is now a thing of the past.

She was gradually finding it difficult to cope.

This is even more incredible.

A third-rate martial artist defeats a master-level expert, and the victor is actually a third-rate martial artist. Even if it's a cross-level battle, the level difference is just too great.

Because of their own powerlessness.

Gradually, Ru Shuang had an idea.

"Perhaps it's time to consider taking a concubine for my husband. I alone cannot handle his capabilities."

In this era, people were very open-minded, and things like taking more wives and concubines were common. Therefore, Ru Shuang did not find it strange that her husband would take a concubine.

Furthermore, because she was no longer a virgin and had a child when she married Jiang Chuan, she always felt guilty towards him.

Of course, since this small village only had these conditions, even if someone wanted to take a concubine, they would have to wait until later to find an opportunity.

It's really difficult to do that right now.

However, Ru Shuang kept this idea in mind and prepared to put it into practice once she found an opportunity.

Taking a concubine is not only for oneself, but also for one's husband.

Because her husband's cultivation method was indeed somewhat outrageous, taking a concubine might enhance his strength.

The stronger one's husband becomes, the less crisis one will need to bear.

That's what Ru Shuang thought.

Chapter Twenty-One: Departure, Next Stop on the Journey!

On this day, Jiang Chuan went to find the old village chief again.

I told the old village chief something.

It is said that Ru Shuang is not without relatives. She still has some relatives in Xinling. Now that he has married Ru Shuang, he should accompany her to see her last relatives.

The old village chief naturally had no reason to refuse.

He simply reminded Jiang Chuan that the journey was long and he should be careful.

Jiang Chuan readily agreed.

Afterwards, I packed some luggage.
