Chapter 401: Three Thousand Weak Waters but only One Scoop
"This..." Xuan Ke exclaimed in shock.
Li Futian and Jiang Yue also looked surprised and they couldn’t help but think about it.
"It’s really possible." Jiang Yue said with an ugly look on his face.
He didn’t expect that a secret realm may be responsible for the sudden disappearance of all the high-level ancient experts in the Cangxing world.
"If Brother Yu’s idea is true, the top experts in the Cangxing world will be the core formation realm cultivators." Xuan Ke said.
"For now." Jiang Yue retorted and the others couldn’t help but worry.
If the secret place opened a few more times, wouldn’t the cultivation level of the Cangxing world continue to deteriorate?
In the end, would the Cangxing world become a mortal world?
Thinking of this level, the four brothers were horrified.
"My thoughts may not be right." Yu Nianzhen tried to reassure them and then continued.
"XiaoYue, senior Niu seems to think we will come back from the secret place. Things may not be as we suspect."
"Senior Niu did imply that he would wait for us to come back. However, he was also evasive about the matter. He may be keeping things from us." Jiang Yue said and Yu Nianzhen sighed.
He had also noticed senior Niu’s reluctance to talk about the secret place but he didn’t take it seriously at the time.
Now that he was thinking about it, he couldn’t help but wonder.
"Fortunately, all our close people will be nascent soul realm cultivators when the time comes. If something happens, we will be together." Jiang Yue said and held his husband’s hand.
"I will never leave your side." Yu Nianzhen said, his eyes full of infinite doting.
"Me too, I will always be with you."
Seeing this, Xuan Ke rolled his eyes and he looked at Li Futian helplessly.
When Li Futian saw the look, he shrugged and took a leisurely sip of tea.
"Are you enough?" Xuan Ke roared when he saw that Jiang Yue and Yu Nianzhen were still looking at each other.
"Brother Xuan, are you jealous? Do you want my help to find a Taoist companion?" Jiang Yue asked.
"What Taoist companion can a monk have?"
"Who do you think we are? Don’t we know your virtue?" Jiang Yue sneered.
In dress and appearance, Xuan Ke was a monk. However, his behaviour had nothing to do with Buddhism.
"I..." Xuan Ke wanted to struggle but when he saw the looks in his brothers’ eyes, he sneered.
"There are three thousand weak waters and I want all of them." He said with a proud look in his eyes.
Hearing this, Jiang Yue, Yu Nianzhen, and Li Futian were filled with helplessness.
Xuan Ke was the legendary perverted monk!
Although he kept his body clean, he liked looking at erotic picture books and visiting brothels.
"Brother Li, can you foresee brother Xuan’s marriage? Why do I feel that Brother Xuan will be offered three thousand weak waters but only take one scoop?" Jiang Yue said with a teasing smile on his lips.
"Brother Jiang, how can you curse me to have such a miserable end?" Xuan Ke asked with a gloomy look on his face.
"Brother Xuan, there is nothing wrong with choosing one partner for the rest of your life."
"I am not like you. I want to taste all the delicacies in the high mountains and seas."
"Is that so?" Li Futian said and chuckled.
"What’s that? Why are you laughing?" Xuan Ke questioned warily.
"Nothing." Li Futian said but kept a meaningful smile on his lips.
"I just laughed a little, I don’t mean anything by it."
"Brother Li, why don’t I believe you? Why do I feel that your laugh is mocking me?"
Hearing this, Li Futian shrugged but continued to smile.
"Brother Xuan is thinking too much. I am not mocking you." He insisted.
However, no one was convinced.
Jiang Yue and Yu Nianzhen looked at each other and a tacit understanding flowed between their eyes.
"I don’t think I am thinking too much. Your laugh and smile don’t seem right." Xuan Ke insisted and then continued.
"Brother Li, we are sworn brothers who have been loyal to each other for more than a hundred years. If you have foreseen my miserable future, you have to tell me clearly so that I can avoid it."
"Brother Xuan can rest assured; I have not foreseen your miserable future."
While he spoke, Li Futian’s eyes were filled with mirth and his lips were twitching.
’I know his laughing at me but I have no evidence.’ Xuan Ke thought but there was nothing he could do.
Since Li Futian was not willing to say anything, Xuan Ke could only plan to live carefully.
’As long as I am careful, I won’t be caught.’ He thought and a burst of confidence filled his heart.
"Brother Li, what about Hongzhu?" Jiang Yue questioned.
"Hongzhu is retreating." Li Futian said and sighed.
Because of his soul injury, he could barely support his contract with Hongzhu.
To ease his burden, Hongzhu spent most of her time sleeping.
"Has there been any progress with the nine-turns rebirth pill?" Yu Nianzhen asked.
"We have only been out of the secret realm for less than a year." Li Futian reminded and everyone understood his meaning.
"Maybe we will find something in the sealed battlefield." Jiang Yue said.
"It’s not impossible." Li Futian said but no one was optimistic.
After all, the sealed battlefield was full of demonic qi.
Even if there were pills and herbs at the beginning, those things would no longer be useable after being dosed with demonic qi for more than one hundred thousand years.
"Brother Li, what about you and Hongzhu?" Jiang Yue changed the subject.
"Don’t say we are thinking too much. I have already seen it when we met her more than one hundred years ago." Xuan Ke said before Li Futian spoke.
"There are three thousand weak waters but I only take one scoop." Li Futian answered in a roundabout manner.
"It’s exactly as I thought." Xuan Ke said excitedly.
When the others heard that, they couldn’t help but laugh.
"Brother Li, have you formed a Taoist contract?"
"Not yet." Li Futian said with a sad look in his eyes.
Seeing him like this, the others immediately understood.
At the moment, Li Futian’s soul was incomplete.
Forming a Taoist contract with an incomplete soul was not an ideal situation.
Most importantly, there was no guarantee he could repair his soul before his lifespan ran out.
If something went wrong, Li Futian didn’t want Hongzhu to suffer and die with him.
"Don’t worry. Your brothers will help do everything we can." Jiang Yue said and the others nodded.
"Later, you can formally introduce our sister-in-law to your brothers." Xuan Ke said.
"Good."
After that, the four caught up on everything that happened to them since they separated.
Three hours later, Jiang Yue felt a tap on the formation around the ancient palace.
"There is someone at the door, I will go check." He said and stood up.
"I will go with you." Yu Nianzhen also stood up.
"Why don’t you let brother Xuan go?" Li Futian suddenly said.
At that, everyone turned to the person and looked at him in surprise.
"Why should I go? This is not my place." Xuan Ke instinctively said.
"It’s okay to go. We four are good brothers and our brothers’ place is also our place." Li Futian said and the others couldn’t help but be surprised.
No matter how close they were, they always kept straight accounts.
At the back of their minds, they knew that the only way to prevent the breakdown of their friendship was to make sure they didn’t take advantage of each other.
Considering that, it was strange for Li Futian to say something so blatant.
However, Yu Nianzhen and Jiang Yue were not stupid.
As soon as they heard Li Futian’s abnormal words, they immediately realised what was going on.
’Is the person at the door brother Xuan’s ’one scoop’?’ Jiang Yue wondered excitedly.
At the same time, he looked at Yu Nianzhen and saw a small smile on his lover’s lips.
"Brother Xuan, do you have to make the line so clear? Our place is also your place and you can also receive guests?" Jiang Yue said.
Simultaneously, he pulled Yu Nianzhen and both retook their seats.
"Three brothers, what’s wrong with you?" Xuan Ke asked, feeling a little scared.
He didn’t know why but he always felt that his three brothers were tricking him.
Unfortunately, he had no evidence and could only speculate blindly.
"Brother Xuan, go ahead and let the guest in." Jiang Yue urged.
Now that it had come to this, he wanted to see what kind of person was destined for Xuan Ke.
’Are they also a pervert? Is it a man or a woman? How old are they?’ He throbbed with excitement as he thought about it.
