275: Chapter 275 Venting
In the end, Daoist Master Cangxuan still married Princess Ao Linger of the Dragon Clan.
There was no other way.
Since he couldn't resist, he could only passively accept it.
That shameless Dragon Emperor, a super powerhouse of the Half-Step Immortal Realm, actually personally ran to the Tianyuan Sect to demand a person; what could he do?
He couldn't run away.
He couldn't win a fight.
He could only obediently comply...
On the wedding day, the Dragon Clan was decorated with lanterns and streamers, bustling with extraordinary excitement.
Countless experts of the Yao Race and many powerhouses from the Tianyuan Sect were all present, making for a truly grand scene.
Dressed in a bright red wedding robe, Daoist Master Cangxuan was ushered into the main hall of the Dragon Clan by a crowd; a stiff smile hung on his Face, but in his heart, he was praying incessantly.
"Your Majesty, do you see? Your servant isn't doing this willingly; I'm being forced..."
"Please don't misunderstand, I am loyal to you and have no second thoughts..."
Daoist Master Cangxuan felt extremely aggrieved.
As a dignified powerhouse at the Peak Domain Realm, being forced into marriage like this—if word got back to the Tianxuan Dynasty, where would he hide his old Face?
However.
A few days after the wedding, Daoist Master Cangxuan's attitude underwent a 180-degree turn.
It wasn't that he had come to his senses.
Rather, it was because Princess Ao Linger was too good at taking care of him.
Dragons are naturally lustful; this was common knowledge.
But Daoist Master Cangxuan didn't expect that female dragons were the damn same.
After the marriage, Princess Ao Linger seemed like a completely different person.
During the day.
She was the high and mighty Dragon Princess, cold, elegant, and arrogant.
At night.
She turned into a woman as gentle as water, completely submissive to Daoist Master Cangxuan and serving him with incredible attentiveness.
"Husband, you must be tired? Let me massage your shoulders."
"Husband, you must be thirsty? Let me pour you a cup of tea."
"Husband, it's time for us to rest..."
"Husband, it's time for us to rest..."
"Husband, it's time for us to rest..."
...
At first, Daoist Master Cangxuan still put on airs, wearing an "I'm being forced" expression.
But he couldn't withstand how well Princess Ao Linger handled things; after a few days, he had completely fallen.
"Is... is this what marriage feels like?"
Lying in bed and looking at the sleeping Princess Ao Linger beside him, a feeling he had never experienced before welled up in his heart.
"It seems... quite nice?"
From then on, he completely let himself go.
Cultivating during the day and being intimate with Princess Ao Linger at night, his life was quite comfortable.
He gradually discovered that marriage wasn't actually that scary, especially since Princess Ao Linger was quite skilled.
However.
The good times didn't last long.
Dragons are naturally lustful; these weren't empty words.
Princess Ao Linger's needs became more intense day by day.
Daoist Master Cangxuan could handle it at first, but as time went on, he started to find it overwhelming.
"Linger, can we... rest tonight?"
"My waist... I can't take it anymore..."
"Rest?"
"You're a powerhouse at the Peak Domain Realm, and you need to rest?"
"No... I... I'm a bit tired..."
"Tired? You sit drinking tea and basking in the sun every day; what is there to be tired of?"
"It couldn't be that you're incapable, right?"
Daoist Master Cangxuan wanted to cry but had no tears.
He indeed sat drinking tea and basking in the sun every day, but that wasn't exhaustion—that was Kidney deficiency!
But he didn't dare say it.
A dignified powerhouse at the Peak Domain Realm, admitting to Kidney deficiency?
Wouldn't people laugh their teeth off?
Thus, he could only brace himself and continue to cope.
As the days passed, Daoist Master Cangxuan's legs grew weaker, his waist grew sorer, and the bags under his eyes grew heavier.
He floated when he walked and gasped when he spoke.
When those Dragon Clan Elders saw him like this, they all revealed meaningful smiles.
"Prince Consort, you must take care of your health."
"Prince Consort, would you like this old official to find you some Tonics?"
"Prince Consort, your complexion... it couldn't be..."
Daoist Master Cangxuan glared at them and forced a shout.
"This seat is perfectly fine!"
Even so.
He knew in his heart that he was about to reach his limit.
However, Heaven never seals off all exits.
Just when he felt like he was about to be sucked dry, a familiar power suddenly descended from the sky and poured into his body.
That was the Power of Imperial Fortune from the Dynasty, a baptism of Luck sent down after Wang Chen unified that world.
Daoist Master Cangxuan's whole body shook.
His cultivation began to climb frantically.
Peak Domain Realm... Half-Step Immortal!
His Realm broke through directly from the Peak Domain Realm to the Half-Step Immortal!
At that moment.
The entire Dragon Clan palace was trembling.
A terrifying aura erupted from his body, sweeping through the entire Dragon Abyss.
All the members of the Dragon Clan felt that aura, and their expressions changed drastically.
"This is... Half-Step Immortal?"
"The Prince Consort has broken through?"
"Heavens, didn't he just recently break through to the Peak Domain Realm?"
Dragon Emperor Ao Tian was also alerted.
He stepped out of the Dragon Emperor Palace and looked at Daoist Master Cangxuan, his eyes full of shock.
Half-Step Immortal, that was the same Realm as him! His son-in-law had actually broken through to the Half-Step Immortal?
Daoist Master Cangxuan felt the surging power within him, and a glint flashed in his eyes.
He looked up at Dragon Emperor Ao Tian, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly.
"Father-in-law, your son-in-law would like to spar with you."
Ao Tian was stunned.
Then he burst into loud laughter.
"Good! Good! Good! This old man would like to see exactly how much weight your Half-Step Immortal strength carries!"
The two flew above the Dragon Abyss, and a great battle was about to break out.
Dragon Emperor Ao Tian was an established Half-Step Immortal with formidable strength and rich experience.
Daoist Master Cangxuan was a newly ascended Half-Step Immortal, but having undergone multiple baptisms of Luck, his Foundation was deep, and his strength was not inferior to Ao Tian's at all.
The two fought until the sky turned dark and the sun and moon lost their light.
The Dragon Clan members were all dumbfounded as they watched.
"The Prince Consort is so strong! He can actually fight to a draw with His Majesty the Dragon Emperor!"
"It's not a draw! Look, the Prince Consort has the upper hand!"
"Heavens, the Prince Consort is going to win!"
"Boom—!"
With a loud bang, Dragon Emperor Ao Tian was sent flying by a palm strike from Daoist Master Cangxuan.
This strike.
It directly sent Dragon Emperor Ao Tian flying tens of thousands of miles away.
Logically speaking.
Dragon Emperor Ao Tian was after all Daoist Master Cangxuan's father-in-law; when they clashed, Daoist Master Cangxuan should have given the other party some Face.
Not to say he should intentionally lose, but at the very least, he shouldn't have made the other party lose Face.
But.
Daoist Master Cangxuan had been holding back a breath of resentment in his heart!
One must know.
If it weren't for the other party, it was very likely he wouldn't have married Princess Ao Linger.
Although he had now accepted this outcome and got along quite well with Princess Ao Linger, with no more resistance in his heart.
But.
In the end, a large part of the reason for the marriage was being coerced by the other party, so he still felt some resentment.
And that strike just now.
It could be said that it vented all the resentment in his heart.
In an instant.
His heart felt much clearer, and there was no longer a trace of complaint.
"Ah..."
"Bastard! You actually used lethal force against me? You're finished! Just wait and see how I deal with you!"
