124: Chapter 124 A Dream of Yellow Millet
"Husband, you..." Long Feifei looked at Xu Que, wanting to say something but stopping herself.
"Baby, what are you worrying about?" Xu Que said, taking Xu Linger into his arms, asking without even raising his head.
"Husband, my mom... you... you are not allowed to have any bad ideas!"
"Bad ideas?" Xu Que looked up at Long Feifei, "Baby, what are you letting your imagination run wild with all day! Am I that kind of person?"
"Hmph!"
Long Feifei gave a coquettish huff and muttered, "Aren't you? Then what about Lin Ruoxue and Chairwoman Xiao Wanying? What do you say to that?"
"This... how can that be the same! Besides, some things are not what you imagine!" Xu Que smiled awkwardly and changed the subject, "Our precious daughter is hungry, hurry up and feed her!"
"Hmph!"
Long Feifei gave a light huff, took the child, lifted her clothes, and began to feed Xu Linger.
However, there was still some worry in her eyes!
"Creak~"
Just then, Long Meili walked out wrapped in a white bath towel. Looking at Xu Que sitting on the living room sofa, she said excitedly, "Little Xu, this pill of yours is truly a celestial elixir; it actually made me look like I'm back in my twenties."
"I'm glad you like it!"
"Like it? Of course I like it! Little Xu, come visit more often when you have time!"
As soon as Long Meili finished speaking, Long Feifei interjected, "Mom, Xu Que is busy all day long, how would he have time!"
Hearing this, Long Meili glared at Long Feifei, as if telling her to shut up!
Immediately after, she looked at Xu Que with a beaming smile, "Little Xu, no matter how busy you are, you must take time to rest. Come visit when you can, and let me see little Linger more often."
"Mother-in-law, if you like, you can also come to the Central Region with Feifei," Xu Que said with a smile.
"Good, good, good. When Feifei goes back, I will go with her and stay for a while."
Long Meili finished speaking and turned to walk into the bedroom.
"Hmph!"
Long Feifei gave a cold huff. She pouted, feeling depressed.
"Baby, don't let your imagination run wild. If you're worried, then I'll avoid Mother-in-law. You can rest easy now, right?"
"I'm going to see my two goddaughters first. I haven't seen them in so long, I really miss them!"
After saying this, his figure disappeared from the living room.
"Sigh!"
Looking at the sofa where Xu Que had been sitting, Long Feifei let out a helpless sigh. It had been so long; as his wife, how could she not know Xu Que's personality!
"Such a good day, why are you sighing!"
Long Meili's voice suddenly rang out from behind her.
"It's nothing!"
"If it's nothing, why are you so unhappy? If something is bothering you, you must tell Mom. Is there anything we can't talk about between mother and daughter?"
"Mom, it's really nothing! Don't you like Linger? You hold her."
"Good, good, good!"
"Daddy."
As soon as Xu Que's figure appeared, the two little ones saw him, their eyes lit up, and they trotted over and threw themselves into Xu Que's arms.
"Haha, did you miss Daddy?" Xu Que said, kissing them both on the cheeks.
"Missed you!" The two little girls, Ning Yutong and Jiang Ni, replied in their milky voices.
"Haha!"
"Husband."
Two voices suddenly sounded from the doorways of the two Space Capsules nearby.
Su Yuexin and Jiang Xiaolin, both with big baby bumps, walked out of their respective Space Capsules. Their parents followed them out. Seeing Xu Que, they all immediately broke into smiles.
"Little Xu is here, sit down quickly."
"Mother-in-law, we are all family, no need to be so polite."
"Good, good, good, no politeness then. Sit and chat, I'll go pour you some water."
Watching his mother-in-law turn to pour water, Xu Que shook his head helplessly. Let them be! As long as they are happy!
In the blink of an eye, seven days passed in a flash.
Xu Que had also visited all his fathers-in-law and mothers-in-law.
On this day, in the Central Region, by the pond, under the willow tree, on a huge and flat Taihu Stone.
Xu Que was preparing to teach his disciple Shen Youchu to cultivate. Suddenly, a powerful aura erupted from the outer region, from the ocean.
"This... could it be that my wife Wumian has broken through to the Spirit Transformation Realm in one go?"
"Master, weren't you going to teach me to cultivate? Why are you spacing out?" Shen Youchu hugged Xu Que's arm, looking up and asking curiously.
"Good disciple, you practice here by yourself for now. Master is going to check on your mistresses, and I'll come back to teach you later!"
Xu Que said, gently rubbing Shen Youchu's head. The next instant, he disappeared from the large stone.
Gently stroking the blanket where Xu Que had just been sitting, which was still warm, a flash of anticipation crossed Shen Youchu's eyes.
As for this Taihu Stone, she naturally knew in her heart what Master wanted to do by bringing her here! And she was willing to give everything for Master!
In the outer region, by the ocean.
Xu Que's figure appeared, and he saw Ye Wumian standing above the sea, slowly opening her eyes.
"Boom~"
A powerful aura erupted from within her body.
The strong shockwave forced Xu Que to retreat over a hundred steps in the void before he could stand steady.
"Baby, have you broken through to the Spirit Transformation Realm?"
Xu Que said, instantly appearing beside Ye Wumian and embracing her fragrant, delicate body.
Ye Wumian looked at Xu Que, gently brushing the silver-white hair from her forehead, and said softly, "Husband, breaking through to the Spirit Transformation Realm is not that easy. I have only just broken through to the Half-Step Divinity Transformation Realm; I am still some distance away from the Spirit Transformation Realm!"
"Hehe, that's still amazing. You are now the most powerful person in our Xu Family!"
Hearing Xu Que's praise, Ye Wumian felt a wave of sweetness in her heart and leaned gently against Xu Que's shoulder.
"Husband, why don't you ask me what kind of artistic conception I have comprehended?" Ye Wumian raised her head, looking at Xu Que with affectionate eyes, her gaze sparkling with anticipation.
Xu Que was slightly stunned, then revealed a brilliant smile, gently flicked her delicate nose, and said dotingly, "Hehe, look at my brain, I was just too happy. My baby is so peerless, you must have comprehended an extraordinary artistic conception. Tell me quickly, what exactly is it?"
Ye Wumian covered her mouth and chuckled, her eyes full of pride, and slowly said, "My artistic conception is called The Dream of Yellow Millet; it is a mental labyrinth. During battle, as long as the enemy falls into the dream cycle, they will experience thousands of lifetimes of love, hate, and enmity, eventually causing their Dao heart to collapse and rendering them a mortal."
Hearing this, Xu Que was slightly stunned.
This artistic conception seemed a bit different from what he had imagined!
Theoretically, Ye Wumian had grown up in the Wangqing Sect under the guidance of Sect Mistress Yu Wuqing and had not experienced much love, hate, or enmity, so why would she comprehend such an artistic conception?
Shouldn't she have comprehended a heartless artistic conception like her master, or something related to ice and snow?!
"Husband, do you want to experience it?" Ye Wumian looked at the stunned Xu Que and asked with a smile.
"Can I?"
"Of course you can!"
"Then... then go ahead!" Xu Que said, closing his eyes.
"Husband, aren't you afraid that I might harm you?"
"You are my baby, why would I be afraid?"
Uh!
Ye Wumian was stunned for a moment, a wave of emotion washing over her heart, and her gaze toward Xu Que became even more tender.
"Husband, then get ready to experience the cycle of life!"
