134: Zhao Tianming's grief and anger

“What?! All of this, Brother Chen guided you to Breakthrough?” Zhao Tianming was incredibly surprised.

“Of course! If not for Brother Chen’s help, how could I have achieved such a rapid series of Breakthroughs, directly reaching Golden Core, in such a short period of time?” Chen Wenwen said indifferently.

“Wenwen, I’m not trying to be critical, but is your Realm stable?” Zhao Tianming couldn't quite accept it and tried to find a flaw, hoping to find some comfort for his Soul.

“Do you think that’s possible? Brother Chen himself is at Golden Core, and with him and Ling Wu… Auntie guiding me, do you think my Foundation would be unstable?”

“Well, that’s good then, I was just a little worried about you!” Zhao Tianming was extremely embarrassed.

He had a Body Integration Realm Master guiding him, so how was it that he was now even inferior to Chen Wenwen? Was Qian Muli deceiving him?

But Qian Muli had not yet awakened, so he had no way to ask. However, what he didn't know was that Qian Muli had already awakened in secret, but she hadn't told him.

And regarding Chen Wenwen’s Breakthrough, not only was Zhao Tianming confused, but even Qian Muli was a little bewildered at this moment.

She knew Chen Wenwen’s Cultivation, but she hadn’t expected her to go directly from Early Stage Foundation Establishment to Golden Core in just over a year!

This made her even more of a Genius, how was this possible?! Could it be… that Chen Xuan had some trick up his sleeve?

“Instead of having this free time, you should Cultivate properly, instead of having a mind full of filth!” Chen Wenwen reprimanded again.

“Yes, yes, yes, Wenwen, you’re right, I was wrong! Then I won’t disturb your Cultivation now! I’ll go back to my room!” Zhao Tianming left with a worried expression.

Seeing Chen Wenwen’s Cultivation, he truly believed that there was nothing going on between the two of them.

As fellow Cultivators, he knew too well how much effort was required behind such rapid Breakthroughs! So Chen Wenwen simply had no time to be with Chen Xuan… he had been thinking too much!

Zhao Tianming was very disheartened, so he decided that tonight, he must Cultivate and heal properly, and no one could stop his Cultivation!

Watching Zhao Tianming’s departing back, Chen Wenwen secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, Chen Xuan had reminded her in time, otherwise, she would have truly laid everything bare with Zhao Tianming.

“Husband, how much longer do we have to hide it from him? I don’t want to keep interacting with him like this!”

“No rush, isn’t it more interesting this way!” Chen Xuan directly embraced his wife and smiled mischievously.

“Hmph, Husband only knows how to bully me!” Chen Wenwen pouted.

“Who told my Wenwen to be so cute!”

“What did you and he talk about just now?”

“Nothing much, just…” Chen Xuan told Chen Wenwen what had just happened.

“Ah? Zhao Tianming wanted to kill you! He thought you were defenseless and wanted to attack you! If Husband hadn’t recovered his Cultivation, you might have already been…”

Chen Wenwen’s tears instantly flowed out.

“It’s all my fault, if I hadn’t met him, Husband wouldn’t have… I’m going to make him pay now!” With that, Chen Wenwen was about to go find Zhao Tianming.

“Alright, alright, it’s not as serious as you think, your Husband isn’t a fool!” Chen Xuan pulled her back casually, and she immediately fell back into his embrace.

“Then Husband, you have to promise me, next time you absolutely cannot do this again! Otherwise, I’ll… I won’t cooperate with you!”

“Okay, okay, whatever my wife says!”

“Hmph, that’s more like it. Husband, which foot did you kick him with? Let me see if it’s alright!”

Saying that, Chen Wenwen bent down and took off Chen Xuan’s shoe, looking at it from left to right.

“You’re really making a big deal out of nothing. Here, take this…” Chen Xuan handed her a Spirit Treasure.()

Similarly, Zhao Tianming was also Cultivating diligently, deeply absorbed in meditation, nothing could hinder his Cultivation!

The next morning, Chen Xuan and Chen Wenwen both emerged from their room looking refreshed and went outside to drink tea.

Zhao Tianming also came out of his room not long after.

“Good morning!” Chen Xuan responded with a smile.

“Mm, morning!”

“Did you rest well last night?” Chen Xuan asked.

“Quite well, I haven’t Cultivated with such peace of mind in a long time!” Zhao Tianming replied with a smile.

“Is that so? That’s good then!” Chen Xuan’s smile grew even brighter. However, in Zhao Tianming’s eyes, it gave him a creepy feeling.

“By the way, my brother, why did you come here?”

“Me? I’m just Cultivating as I please, and before I knew it, I arrived in Jade Dragon City!”

“Then, Brother Chen, what are your next plans?” Zhao Tianming’s tone was a bit unnatural.

He remembered that exceptionally beautiful woman who called herself the Empress Dowager, and what she had promised him. But now that Chen Wenwen was here, if he had contact with other beautiful women, he would definitely have no chance with Chen Wenwen!

And most importantly, he and that woman were only friends for now. Although she was worth investing in, with Chen Wenwen here, it was out of the question.

“Actually, yes. The Empress Dowager is ill, isn’t she? I happen to know a bit of medicine, so I plan to go there and try. Maybe I can even get that millennium frost grass!” Chen Xuan said casually.

Zhao Tianming’s next goal was definitely the millennium frost grass, after all, he still had a Soul that needed energy replenishment. Now that he had brought it up himself, let’s see how he would respond.

Sure enough, upon hearing what Chen Xuan said, Zhao Tianming’s heart stirred, and an idea instantly popped into his head.

He could bring Chen Xuan to the Royal harem legitimately, and during this time, he could separate Chen Xuan and Chen Wenwen! Then he could secretly go and complete the transaction with that woman, and then have her find any excuse to have Chen Xuan killed in the Royal harem!

This was simply killing two birds with one stone!

“Is that so? Since Brother Chen has such a plan, I also want to go with you. I wonder if Wenwen would agree?”

“Wenwen, what do you think?” Chen Xuan turned to look at Chen Wenwen.

“This… let’s not go, I feel it would be very unsafe!” Chen Wenwen said with a frown.

Although she had grown up and no one could tell that she was the one who had escaped back then, she was still very resistant to going to the Imperial Palace.

“No, what’s unsafe about it? Brother Chen is so powerful, and he’s only going to treat the Empress Dowager, there won’t be any problems!”

“Is it your place to speak here? Don’t bother me, okay?” Chen Wenwen said angrily. How could she show a good face to someone who wanted to kill her Husband!

“I…!”

Zhao Tianming clenched his fists tightly, vowing in his heart to tear Chen Xuan into a thousand pieces!

“How about this, Wenwen, you just wait here for Tianming and me to come back. We’ll be back very quickly once we get there!” Chen Xuan said appropriately.

“I think what Brother Chen said is feasible!” Zhao Tianming was overjoyed, he was already impatient to see Chen Xuan being killed.

Chen Wenwen thought for a moment and said, “Since Brother Chen wants to go, then I can’t stop you. But you, Zhao Tianming, must promise me that once you get there, you will obediently listen to Brother Chen and not cause trouble!”

“Don’t worry, I definitely will!” Zhao Tianming was ecstatic in his heart, but on his face, he calmly agreed.

“Alright then!” Chen Wenwen glanced at Chen Xuan, and seeing that he had no other objections, she agreed.
