61: Chapter 61 Absolute Trust

Li Zhengyang looked at Bai Shiwei with anticipation.

He knew that Bai Shiwei was very obsessed with martial arts, to the point of being fanatical, otherwise she wouldn't have been borrowing money everywhere, or even going on blind dates through the Federal System.

He was just waiting for Bai Shiwei to ask so he could throw out the bargaining chip he had prepared long ago: a martial arts lecture given by a Transcendent Martial Artist. He wasn't afraid that Bai Shiwei wouldn't be interested.

A lecture by a Transcendent Martial Artist had a lethal attraction for any martial artist, something countless martial artists sought but could not obtain.

Let alone for someone as obsessed with martial arts as Bai Shiwei.

"Not interested."

Bai Shiwei didn't even ask and turned to leave.

Li Zhengyang was stunned, then hurriedly chased after her, saying: "Shi Wei, the lecture is being given by a Transcendent Martial Artist. I have two admission spots. Are you really not interested?"

"Li Zhengyang!"

"We aren't that close. 'Shi Wei' is not what you should be calling me. I am grateful that you lent me money before, but in the future, please watch your words and mind your boundaries!"

Bai Shiwei said coldly: "I already have a husband, and I don't want to get too close to other men."

Li Zhengyang's expression turned ugly.

He hadn't expected Bai Shiwei to say that at all.

What should he do?

It was completely different from what the expert said... Weren't they supposed to be able to get closer step by step as long as they kept the right distance, under the influence of the seed of doubt?

"Shi Wei, actually, you don't need to be like this. Even if you have a husband, you can still interact with the opposite sex normally. There's nothing between us anyway..."

Li Zhengyang was halfway through speaking when he saw that Bai Shiwei ignored him completely and walked away. He couldn't keep his composure anymore.

"Hey!"

"Bai Shiwei, you've gone too far! Before, when you didn't have money to cultivate, I lent you several thousand in cold, hard cash!"

Li Zhengyang shouted almost like a roar.

"Oh?"

Bai Shiwei sneered: "Can't hold it in anymore? That's perfect. Let's cut ties from now on. Don't come looking for trouble again, or don't blame me for taking action!"

"Don't."

Li Zhengyang realized he had lost his composure. After forcing himself to calm down, he ran in front of Bai Shiwei.

Bai Shiwei walked around him.

He blocked her again.

"You asked for this!" Bai Shiwei suddenly threw a punch.

The speed and power were so great that Li Zhengyang was caught off guard.

Clutching his stomach, his face flushed purple, he flew two meters away with a cry of pain and crashed onto the curb.

"Life Level 25...!"

"How is it so high?!"

Even if she had awakened a Superior Martial Aspect, it would be impossible to improve this quickly without dumping millions in resources!

He understood Bai Shiwei's family situation. She had a genius younger brother who was also a money pit. How could her father have so much money?

Could it be that her husband gave it to her after they got married through the blind date?

That's way too much!

Li Zhengyang couldn't accept it. He had awakened a Mid-tier Martial Aspect ranked in the top ten, and by bitterly cultivating while consuming small resources, he had only managed to struggle up to Level 23...!

...

Nighttime.

In the girls' dormitory, Bai Shiwei dialed a video call to Fang Zhuo.

Looking at Fang Zhuo on the screen, who had a restrained temperament and looked exceptionally energetic.

Bai Shiwei couldn't help but ask: "Husband, are you about to break through to Advanced Martial Artist?"

Her tone was a bit cheerful; this meant that the day she could go to Origin Star to meet Fang Zhuo wasn't far off.

"Why are you so early today?"

Fang Zhuo smiled and said: "It's just right. I broke through too late yesterday, and I was planning to tell you in a bit."

"You've already broken through?"

Bai Shiwei had been a bit unhappy because of the afternoon's events, but now she was instantly filled with joy: "So fast!!"

"...Yeah. When you're free at school, just buy a ticket and come over. Actually, never mind, just confirm a time, and I'll have the group send someone to pick you up."

Fang Zhuo also smiled happily.

They had only been separated for a few days, but it felt like a long time had passed.

The Starry Sky Group had three major genius contracts, divided into A-rank, s-rank contract, and customized-rank.

As a genius who signed a customized contract, he had the right to use the group's exclusive aircraft several times a year.

"Okay, let's make it tomorrow~!" Bai Shiwei's beautiful eyes turned, and she said without hesitation.

In Martial Arts Undergraduate, by the senior year, the school basically had no more classes. At this time, any martial arts student who could awaken a Martial Aspect...

could basically reach Life Level 20 or higher.

As Intermediate Martial Artist, students would either go to large companies or groups for internships. Those with aspirations for a martial arts future would more often choose to go to Origin Star for combat and adventure.

"That's fine."

Fang Zhuo smiled and said: "I'll inform the group in a bit. By the way, remember to go home and take those two sets of clothes."

"What are you talking about!"

Bai Shiwei was a bit shy and annoyed, but said softly: "I didn't expect you to break through so quickly, I almost forgot what I wanted to say."

"Today on the road, I met two gaudy sluts, and they said..."

Bai Shiwei described everything she had seen and heard, and then bit her lip hard: "Husband, why do you think those two wanted to frame you?"

"Could it be that the Ding Family sent them to do it?"

"Most likely."

Fang Zhuo looked at Bai Shiwei on the screen, who was tilting her head in thought, and laughed: "You're not stupid after all, haha. Also, why aren't you worried about me at all?"

This matter was either done by people from the Ding Family or stirred up by potential romantic rivals.

The Ding Family had a deadly feud with him, and using these kinds of low-handed tactics was nothing more than wanting to destroy the relationship between him and Bai Shiwei.

That was the most likely possibility.

As for the latter, to be honest, Fang Zhuo felt there were very few such people. After all, Bai Shiwei was already a married woman, and after he signed the s-rank contract with the Starry Sky Martial Artist Group, he had also become quite famous.

Even if the average person had a penchant for married women, they would have to weigh their own worth carefully.

"I'm very smart! I just don't like to use my brain when I'm with you." Bai Shiwei snorted and wrinkled her nose:

"As for worrying about you? I'm not worried. I trust you!"

Bai Shiwei narrowed her eyes, her beautiful eyes curving into crescents.

After they got their marriage certificate from the blind date, the two of them were inseparable, cultivating and living together. Their feelings heated up extremely quickly, and her understanding of Fang Zhuo could be said to be quite deep.

Fang Zhuo was a bit lecherous, but within a normal range, and he wasn't a philanderer.

The frequent late-night calls during these few days of separation also proved this point.

Bai Shiwei firmly believed in her judgment.

"To be trusted so much by a genius martial artist with a Superior Martial Aspect, the Heaven-Swallowing Python, is my honor~!" Fang Zhuo teased intentionally.

Bai Shiwei rolled her eyes: "The big genius with a customized contract from the Starry Sky Group is already an Advanced Martial Artist, yet you're still making fun of me. Hmph, I don't want to talk to you anymore!"

As she spoke, Bai Shiwei voluntarily chatted for another hour before the two of them said goodnight to each other and hung up the video call.

...

The next day.

A small interstellar aircraft slowly descended and hovered over the landing pad of Jinhe Martial Arts University.

Not far away was a spacious martial arts arena, where quite a few students were currently tempering their bodies, and occasionally pairs could be seen sparring and competing.

"An interstellar aircraft!"

"And it's an exclusive aircraft of the Starry Sky Martial Artist Group!" A martial arts student pointed at the head of the aircraft and shouted in surprise.

"What are people from the Starry Sky Group doing at our school?"

A strong boy wearing a training uniform looked confused. Bai Shiwei dragged her light yellow suitcase and walked towards the landing pad with big strides.

Under the aircraft, a young woman wearing the Starry Sky Group uniform walked up politely:

"Miss Bai, have you been waiting long?"

As she spoke, she took the suitcase from Bai Shiwei.

"No, no, I'm the one who's late." Bai Shiwei shook her head repeatedly. She had woken up in the morning and specifically returned to the Gardener Residential Complex.

It's all Fang Zhuo's fault...!

"It doesn't matter. If you're ready, shall we depart?"

"Mm."

Bai Shiwei blinked her beautiful eyes, feeling some anticipation. Although the university had organized trips to Origin Star and she had been to the wilderness, the headquarters of the Starry Sky Martial Artist Group... the holy land for martial artists of the Blue Moon Federation, she had long admired it but had never been there.

She never expected that she would go there now as a family member.
