Bai Suzhen, I really need to punish you properly.

Feng San Niang moved into her "new home" in Qiantang County.

It is a grand and magnificent mansion.

This was naturally created using magical power.

Even the servants in the mansion were made up by the five ghosts under Xiaoqing's command.

Wang Xuan has recently been instructing Feng San Niang on her speech, behavior, and social interactions, while also helping her build her reputation.

What about being charitable and generous, what about studying hard and diligently...?

Fortunately, when they raided the Jishetang pharmacy owned by the toad spirit Wang Daoling, they seized a large amount of silver.

Feng San Niang would occasionally travel back to Yuhang to visit Fan Shiyi Niang, telling her about the progress here and also talking to her about Wang Xuan.

Meanwhile, Bai Suzhen has been in seclusion recently, trying to break through to the realm of a celestial being.

She could sense that she was only a hair's breadth away from breaking through.

But this line could very well be an insurmountable barrier.

Wang Xuan was also meditating in his room at that moment.

He is currently in the late stage of Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation, and the next stage is Spirit Refining and Returning to Emptiness. He also hopes to break through to the next level as soon as possible.

Suddenly, the door was first gently pushed open, then quickly closed again, and then opened again.

"Who is it?" Wang Xuan asked.

With a smile in her eyes and brows, she gracefully entered.

Having just condensed her spiritual power and was ready to use it, she couldn't resist wanting to test it out in front of Wang Xuan.

Wang Xuan laughed loudly, "How come I never realized you were so mischievous?"

He pulled the person into his arms, his hands restlessly caressing them.

Rouge was quickly defeated.

After their tender moment, Rouge went to bed to rest. Wang Xuan went out of his room and was surprised to see Xiaoqing in the courtyard.

Xiaoqing stuck out her tongue at him, trying to pretend she hadn't seen it.

"When did you get back?" Wang Xuan strode forward, grabbed her wrist, and said with a hint of mockery in his eyes, "You still owe me, and you haven't paid me back yet."

"I never said I wouldn't pay it back!" Xiaoqing pouted, then asked curiously, "Why can't we go into your room, sister?"

"Your sister is in seclusion." Wang Xuan led her into his private space. "Don't resist."

"Where is this?"

The surrounding environment changed instantly, leaving Xiaoqing completely bewildered.

Wang Xuan reached out and held her slender waist, pinching her cheek with his fingertips, and said with a playful smile, "It doesn't matter where it is, what matters is that I'm going to set some rules for you today."

Wang Xuan kissed him.

As their lips touched, Xiaoqing's expression gradually became dazed, and her originally tense body slowly softened.

I remember the last time Xiaoqing transformed into a snake, her huge tongue licking my face.

Wang Xuan, naturally, decided to retaliate in kind. Not content with just the lips, he then proceeded to the neck, cheeks, earlobes...

Xiaoqing's pretty face turned red, and she nestled softly in his arms.

Wang Xuan said proudly, "Now you know how powerful I am."

Xiaoqing's eyes were misty, and her breathing was slightly rapid: "I really want to show my true form."

Wang Xuan quickly whispered a reminder: "I'm warning you, you're not allowed to transform into a snake."

"But I'm so hot."

"This is a test of your character. If you dare to change, I will treat you like this every day from now on."

Xiaoqing pouted, her cheeks glistening with moisture, and said defiantly, "I only licked you once, why did it take you so long?"

"My tongue is small, of course it's slow."

Xiaoqing accused, "Why did you pinch me just now?"

"It was just something I did."

"So, can I pinch you too?"

Wang Xuan brushed aside Xiao Qing's eager little hand: "That won't be necessary."

"You stingy little thing!" Xiaoqing pouted and said coquettishly.

Wang Xuan took her hand and changed the subject: "Let me show you around here."

"Where am I?"

"My portable paradise."

Xiaoqing opened her mouth wide in shock, her eyes filled with disbelief.

……

One month later.

Wang Xuan sent a matchmaker to the Fan family to propose marriage for his sworn brother, Qiu Feng.

Things progressed unexpectedly smoothly.

Wang Xuan had originally thought that if all else failed, he would have to resort to some unconventional methods.

Unexpectedly, after learning that Fan Shiyi Niang was willing, Fan Chongwen readily agreed to the marriage.

Next came the exchange of birth dates and times, divination, auspicious date selection, and betrothal...

Before they knew it, it was the morning of their wedding day. Qiu Feng prepared a bridal sedan chair, drums and music, and a grand wedding procession, which headed to the Fan residence to fetch the bride.

The procession was elaborate, with red ribbons filling the sky and a ten-mile-long red bridal procession, creating a magnificent spectacle.

It wasn't until evening that the bride was brought back to Qiantang from Yuhang.

Upon arriving at the Qiu family home, the newlyweds, under the guidance of a respected elder in the area, bowed to heaven and earth while holding an embroidered ball.

The bride was then led to the bridal chamber.

A grand banquet was held in the mansion, with guests filling the hall. These gentry, officials, and local celebrities came to offer their congratulations almost entirely out of respect for Wang Xuan.

As night deepened, all the guests departed.

Seeing that the wedding had come to a successful conclusion, Wang Xuan felt relieved and was about to take his leave when Feng San Niang removed her male disguise and returned to her original appearance.

The loose-fitting red wedding dress, worn by her petite frame, looked baggy and swaying, but paired with her delicate and beautiful face, it only made her appear charming and endearing.

"Young master, please stay tonight."

Wang Xuan looked puzzled: "Is there anything else?"

"The wedding night."

"Are you kidding me?"

"Where did I joke?" Feng San Niang asked seriously, then spoke in a low, shy voice, "It would be best to have a child."

"Have a child with you?" Wang Xuan's face darkened with shock. "With you or with Eleventh Sister?"

Feng San Niang glared at him irritably: "Of course I'll have the child with Shi Yi Niang. My relationship with her is only in name, how could we consummate our marriage?"

Wang Xuan frowned slightly: "Would Eleventh Sister agree?"

"I won't let you have it easy if she doesn't agree. You asking me to marry her wasn't helping her; now you're truly helping her."

Wang Xuan was momentarily at a loss for words, and tentatively asked, "What if we never have a child?"

Feng San Niang bit her lower lip, her face flushed with embarrassment: "Then... let's stop here."

Wang Xuan looked her over with a complicated expression.

Suddenly, a multitude of words inexplicably flooded his mind.

An incompetent "husband"!

If this isn't love!

I can take down a minotaur with one shot!

"Wait for me."

Feng San Niang gave an order, left quickly, and soon returned, handing the bright red wedding attire to Wang Xuan.

Wang Xuan was still in shock and asked in astonishment, "Are you serious?"

"Otherwise what?" Feng Sanniang gave him a reproachful look, then directly draped the cloak over Wang Xuan's shoulders. She then pushed Wang Xuan toward the bridal chamber, saying, "I'll stand guard outside. You're not allowed to come out tonight."

Wang Xuan stood at the door of the new house, glanced at Feng San Niang beside him, and gently pushed the door open.

Hearing footsteps that didn't belong to Feng San Niang, Fan Shiyi Niang, with a hint of trepidation, softly asked, "Is that Brother Xuan?"

Wang Xuan had never imagined he would have such good fortune with a woman. Looking at Fan Shiyi Niang, who was covered by a red veil, he replied somewhat awkwardly, "It's me."

He then asked curiously, "Why do you call me that?"

Fan Shiyi Niang said softly, "You are San Niang's sworn brother, so naturally you are also my brother."

"Oh, I see."

If she were his lawfully wedded wife, he wouldn't say so much.

Everything is understood without words, and everything is put into action.

But now, facing this young girl, he couldn't act so casually.

Fan Shiyi Niang felt uneasy. She bit her lower lip lightly, her tone tinged with humility and shyness: "Brother Xuan, do you think I'm a... shameless woman?"
