460: Enter Amelia
Zhang Xiaoli suddenly said with a hint of jealousy, "Speaking of which, is that aphrodisiac pill really that potent? It kept you two fighting from yesterday until this afternoon?"
An Qian and Kong Qingshu once again looked at Qin Shilei with scrutinizing gazes.
Busted!
He should have forcefully said he wanted to add another sister to them; perhaps then, this kind of 'three-tribunal interrogation' scene wouldn't have occurred.
However, there wasn't much affection between Qin Shilei and Mary yet, and he didn't want to haphazardly add people to his family.
Qin Shilei said with a bitter smile, "I woke up this morning. Then she chased after me, didn't she? So I dragged it out until now to come back."
"It's fine if you want us to let her go."
An Qian slowly said, "You are not allowed to see her again. And since you made a mistake, you must be punished. Your punishment is one month of not being allowed on our bed."
"Ah!"
Zhang Xiaoli said with a pained expression, "An Qian, why don't you think of another punishment? This feels like we're being punished too."
"You pervert, you're hopeless." An Qian rolled her eyes at Zhang Xiaoli in annoyance.
"How about punishing him by not allowing him to get off our bed for a month?" Zhang Xiaoli said mischievously.
Upon hearing this, Qin Shilei's face darkened.
This pervert, she wouldn't really punish her husband like that, would she?
No matter how strong he was, he couldn't endure such abuse.
There were only exhausted oxen, but no plowed-out fields. Plus, with three of them, if it truly came to a long-term battle, Qin Shilei would definitely not be their match.
"It's just one month of not being allowed on our bed. If you dare to flirt during this period, the duration will be tenfold."
An Qian glared at Zhang Xiaoli, then coldly pronounced the verdict to Qin Shilei again.
"This... well, alright." Zhang Xiaoli had the look of a resentful wife. "Husband, you must keep yourself pure. If you make another mistake, you might never be allowed on our bed again."
Kong Qingshu suddenly asked, "Qin Dage, you were so busy that you forgot to wipe your mouth after stealing a bite. Was there something urgent that made you rush back?"
Qin Shilei hesitated for a moment, then spoke, "I, on behalf of the Qin An Royal Mansion, formed an alliance with her. She helps our army contract exotic beasts, and I help her improve her strength."
"The Queen can open a passage to an Other World called Amelia. I plan to come back, get the Mountain and Rivers Map, and see if I can enter that world."
"Or perhaps you all could explore that Other World for me, or we could just cancel this alliance?"
An Qian glared at Qin Shilei in annoyance. "My husband's word is law. Since an alliance has been formed, how can it be canceled?
"You go out with her into that Other World now, and then let us out later."
"So, I'm going out now?" Qin Shilei pointed outside.
"Wait!"
An Qian said with a look of disgust, "Go and wash yourself thoroughly. That smell, it makes us uncomfortable!"
"Alright." Qin Shilei gave a dry laugh and quickly rushed into the direction of the bathroom.
To avoid An Qian and the others being disgusted again, this bath took nearly half an hour.
When Qin Shilei emerged from the Blessed Land, it was an hour later.
Mary had been sitting on the sofa. Seeing Qin Shilei appear, she looked up and said indifferently, "Did you pass the test of your three wives so quickly?"
"Haha."
Qin Shilei gave a dry laugh, not taking the bait. "Let me introduce someone to you."
With that, he summoned Zhang Qiang from the Blessed Land.
After introductions were made, he handed the Mountain and Rivers Map to Zhang Qiang, then had Zhang Qiang take him into the Mountain and Rivers Map.
Mary, who had witnessed all of this, showed a hint of sadness in her eyes, but she didn't throw any tantrums.
Although the two had been intimate, there wasn't enough trust yet.
It was still necessary to be wary of each other.
After Qin Shilei entered the Mountain and Rivers Map, Mary reopened the spatial passage.
"Let's go." Mary said to Zhang Qiang with a blank expression.
Seeing Zhang Qiang hesitate, she flew into the spatial passage first.
Zhang Qiang followed suit.
The Mountain and Rivers Map, which he had been holding, was, as expected, not restricted by the system and entered the Other World of Amelia with Zhang Qiang.
Emerging from the Mountain and Rivers Map again, Qin Shilei turned to Zhang Qiang and instructed, "You should go back to the Blessed Land to cultivate first."
"Okay." Zhang Qiang returned the Mountain and Rivers Map to Qin Shilei and then disappeared from their sight.
"Are your wives worried about us being alone? You should call them out too." Mary said with a blank expression.
The hint of jealousy in her tone gave Qin Shilei a headache.
He thought for a moment and took out a hundred pieces of Enlightenment Tea from his Qiankun Ring. "Keep these. Soaking one and drinking it when you break through will be of great help. You can also brew a cup and drink it when you want to comprehend a certain ability."
Mary silently took them.
Qin Shilei looked at Mary, then called out An Qian and the other two women.
"Hmph, at least Qin Dage has some taste. Let's go."
An Qian scanned Mary up and down, showing no intention of greeting her, and turned to fly away into the distance.
Zhang Xiaoli and Kong Qingshu each pinched Qin Shilei's soft flesh on his waist, then chased after An Qian.
"Sigh! Thankfully, it wasn't exposed, or I would have been greatly embarrassed."
Qin Shilei sighed inwardly, then turned to call out to Mary and chased after them.
The world of Amelia was similar to the Insect World that Qin Shilei had once visited.
The natural environment was excellent, with lush trees, abundant species, and occasional sightings of scattered low-level exotic beasts appearing in the forests below.
"Your Majesty, how much of this world have you explored, and have you found any human presence?" Qin Shilei asked, making conversation.
"I've only explored an area of ten to twenty thousand kilometers, and I haven't found any human presence yet." Mary replied indifferently.
"Husband, take out the Mountain and Rivers Map and see if it can be used here." Zhang Xiaoli suggested, drawing closer to Qin Shilei.
"Right, I'll try." Qin Shilei once again took out the Mountain and Rivers Map from his Qiankun Ring.
As soon as he infused spiritual energy to activate the Mountain and Rivers Map, the system immediately sent a notification.
"Ding, the Mountain and Rivers Map needs to merge with a certain ley line of this planet to display the planet's topography and the powerful creatures upon it."
After some exploration, Qin Shilei finally understood what a ley line was and how to make the Mountain and Rivers Map merge with it.
They found a continuous mountain range nearby.
He infused vital energy into the Mountain and Rivers Map.
The Mountain and Rivers Map immediately floated in mid-air, then grew larger and larger.
Soon it became several meters in size, with three-dimensional patterns of mountains and rivers appearing on it.
A pale yellow light shot out from the Mountain and Rivers Map, illuminating the ground below.
Qin Shilei continuously infused vital energy into the Mountain and Rivers Map, and it remained suspended in mid-air, constantly emitting pale yellow light towards the ground.
Two hours later, Qin Shilei's face turned somewhat pale. "An Qian, you take over for me."
An Qian immediately flew to the side of the Mountain and Rivers Map, taking Qin Shilei's place in infusing vital energy into it.
Qin Shilei, on the other hand, flew down to the ground, sat cross-legged directly, and took out crystals to restore his vital energy.
Time passed bit by bit.
The four of them had already rotated three times. At this point, a phantom image of a mountain range emerged from the ground below.
Boom!
With the appearance of the phantom, the ground began to shake violently, as if an 8.0 magnitude earthquake had occurred.
