Martial arts have become extinct worldwide, yet I am forced to have a large family.

"How long have you been learning Gu magic?"

Nan Shunian puffed out her cheeks.

"How long?" he wondered to himself.

It's been less than half a month.

If this answer were to be spoken, it would likely directly damage Nan Shunian's fragile "genius" self-confidence.

Or, make her feel like she's bragging.

Yang Xian rolled his eyes and offered a more "credible" explanation.

"Uh... several years, I guess!" he replied casually.

"Only... a few years?" Nan Shunian's dead fish eyes widened slightly.

He had previously sworn that he didn't know any witchcraft.

Now you're saying you only studied for a few years?

That's an outrageous boast!

How could someone who has only studied for a few years possibly defeat a genius like her who has been learning the art of Gu since childhood?

really.

Never believe a man's word!

Nan Shu Nian became angrier and angrier, and the angrier he became, the more resentful he felt.

"Yang Xian, do you dare to bet with me again?" She sat bolt upright. "This time, this genius is determined to win!"

"Win it back?" Yang Xian chuckled. "I didn't expect you, you salted fish, to hold a grudge."

He became interested, put down the towel, and walked to the bedside to sit down.

"Tell me, how do you want to bet?"

"It's very simple!" Nan Shunian held up one finger.

"For the next ten minutes, we cast spells on each other."

"Let's see who can use more Gu worms!"

She paused, her tone becoming somewhat proud:

"If this genius wins, I'll have to do whatever he says tonight!"

"I am your queen!"

"You are my servant!"

Upon hearing these words, Yang Xian's eye twitched.

Good guy!

This little girl, if you don't discipline her for a day, she'll be climbing on the roof and tearing the tiles off!

They dare to ride roughshod over him!

but……

With her full understanding of the "Ten Thousand Poisons Manual", even her ancestor would probably only be able to compete with her.

"What if you lose?" Yang Xian asked back.

"Lose?" Nan Shunian scoffed, sounding quite confident. "If you lose, you can do whatever you want with me!"

Hearing this, Yang Xian couldn't help but laugh out loud:

"I'll give you some advice today so you can get past the ring."

"You're no match for me tonight!"

He reached out and gently pinched Nan Shunian's cheek.

It has a soft texture and a slightly chubby feel.

Nan Shunian quickly pulled away, rubbing her cheek that had been pinched. "So what do you want?"

Yang Xian's smile faded, and his eyes turned serious. "If you lose, I'll suppress the activity of the love potion within you."

The day of his wedding with Mengyun was drawing ever closer.

We must resolve the love potion issue quickly.

He had already warned Nan Shunian about this matter long ago.

However, to prevent the girl from getting jealous, he wanted to find a suitable opportunity to bring it up later.

Tonight, she came to my door of her own accord.

This is a golden opportunity.

"No problem!" Nan Shunian readily agreed, a hint of disdain flashing in her eyes. "My grandmother made this love potion. If you're so capable, then come and try it."

She clearly didn't think Yang Xian had that ability.

After all, that was Grandma's "masterpiece".

Yang Xian looked at her confident expression and nodded happily:

"Let's begin then, just don't cry this time!"

……

Ten minutes later, both sides finished casting their spells.

Nan Shunian stood with her hands on her hips, striking a victorious pose:

"Yang Xian! You're doomed this time! I've already put thirteen Gu worms in your body!"

"And the three Gu worms you planted in me, I've already dealt with them all!"

"So? Want to admit defeat? How about you surrender and lose half?"

She had been preparing for this day for a long time.

Even the Gu worms were carefully cultivated!

Absolutely guaranteed to be foolproof!

"You came prepared, huh?" Yang Xian simply looked at her calmly. "But do you really think you've won?"

"Tsk!" Nan Shunian clicked her tongue impatiently.

"Don't try to argue with me!"

"Losing to a genius like me is nothing to be ashamed of!"

She moved closer, wanting to pat Yang Xian on the shoulder to offer him some comfort.

However, just as her hand was about to touch Yang Xian.

Nan Shunian's vision suddenly blurred.

Her hand froze in mid-air.

What happened...?

Nan Shunian shook her head, and Yang Xian's image appeared double in front of her.

One.

two.

Three.

She blinked hard, trying to see clearly.

But Yang Xian before my eyes rippled outwards like water, becoming blurry and indistinct.

"What's going on..." Nan Shunian murmured softly.

Yang Xian's voice rang in her ear, explaining slowly, "Everything you can discover is what I wanted you to discover. If I wanted to, you wouldn't be able to find even one."

Nan Shunian covered her head, feeling a wave of dizziness wash over her.

"That doesn't make sense!" she exclaimed anxiously. "Why are you completely unharmed?"

"You, you," Yang Xian sighed softly, his eyes filled with pity.

"They said they'd only use Gu poison, but they ended up using other poisons too."

"pity……"

He shook his head.

"These little tricks won't work on me."

Yang Xian has completely overwhelmed Nan Shunian in the use of Gu and poison.

By proposing this bet, she was practically walking into a trap, offering herself up for him to "deal with."

"I lost again..." Nan Shunian felt all her strength drained away, and finally collapsed weakly on the bed.

Yang Xian looked down at her. "Have you given up yet?"

"I give up..." Nan Shunian replied sullenly, her voice low. "Quickly take the Gu out..."

"Don't rush!" Yang Xian's lips curled into a wicked smile:

"This time you'll learn your lesson!"

"So that you won't be confused about the king and queen in the future."

As he spoke, Yang Xian took out the "little props" he had prepared for tonight from the cabinet.

Blindfold, rope, whip, candle...

These props passed by Nan Shunian's eyes one by one.

"Yang Xian, I was wrong..." Her voice carried a hint of pleading.

"Whether it's right or wrong doesn't matter." Yang Xian gently lifted Nan Shunian's head and helped her put on her blindfold.

"Anyway, it won't affect our business tonight!"

P.S.: Sorry everyone, the author has been taking a break for several days.

It's almost Chinese New Year this month, and there's a lot to do. Since I don't have any drafts saved, updates can't be guaranteed.

An author who can't even guarantee updates is really terrible.
