Chapter 30:Jiang Lan's True Self
Chapter 30 – Jiang Lan's True Self
= Room 14001 =
After Qi Hong had left, Miaomiao dual-cultivated with Jiang Lan to the limit, but he hadn't broken her yet. He began probing the girl while they were cuddling.
"Say, Wifey."
"Yes?"
"Where did you go today?"
"Oh, I, ugh, I went out shopping with my friends."
"Oh? What did you buy?"
"N-Nothing. Everything in the western district is too expensive. I don't have enough taels to buy."
Like a bad lair, Jiang Lan didn't tell Miaomiao that she went out to meet with her ex. Moreover, she gave her only refined Yin stone to Xie Tian as a parting gift in anger.
'She was a slave, and she cooped up in her room for a week after that. Since when does she get a friend? And… friends as in plural?'
Although Miaomiao's eyes and ears were limited to within the sect, he still found Jiang Lan's words suspicious.
"Wifey."
"Hmm?"
"Who bullied you today? You have been crying, right?"
"N-No. I didn't cry."
"But when you returned, your face was a mess."
"T-That might be because of my sweat. Right, it was my sweat."
"…Are you sure that nobody had harmed you or bullied you?"
"Geez, young master. Nobody can bully me. If they do, I'll tell you immediately, and I'll have you expel those bitches."
"…"
"You see, today, I visited a weapon shop because I wanted to compare the weapon quality between the sect and the outside market. I found several swords with better quality than what's in the contribution hall, but they wanted to charge us 100 spirit stones. And then…"
Jiang Lan was a bad lair. Even with the trivial matter, she refused to reveal a tinge of truth, but she continued making up stories from her imagination.
Miaomiao sighed. He knew that people lied all the time, but catching his wife lying to him was still painful.
"Wifey."
"What's wrong? You are talkative today."
"Haha, you're the talkative one. Say, can I?"
"???"
Miaomiao's hand reached for Jiang Lan's crotch. He fingered inside her, gesturing that he wanted more. fre ewebnovel.com
"I'm tired, young master. Can I rest?"
"Don't worry," Miaomiao got on top of her, "Let's treat this as a massage. I'll take it slow this time."
Jiang Lan giggled. Believing that Miaomiao favored her over other girls, she allowed him to enjoy her body even though she was extra sensitive after 3 rounds of sex. She thought.
'This is for the better. As long as I have this man's favor, I can get more money, techniques, and spirit stones through him. This is for my immortality dream. Xie Tian, you asshole. I'll get stronger to the point that you and I will become an invincible immortal and you'll be just a wannabe! I'll make you regret that you didn't use the treasures that you have to save me earlier!'
Unfortunately, that would be her last scheme during her sober state.

Miaomiao finished the deed while he was staring at the broken girl with cold eyes. He sat there for an hour waiting for Jiang Lan to regain a bit of stamina.
When Jiang Lan's orgasm stopped, Miaomiao interrogated her with the same questions he had asked earlier.
"Can you talk?"
"… Yes."
Different from Zheng Liqin, Jiang Lan recovered faster as her constitution was more compatible with the system's Yin Essence.
"Where did you go today?"
"I visited my childhood friend in the western district."
Miaomiao had a surprised Pikachu expression. As he had expected, his wife had a secret.
"Who is your friend?"
"Xie Tian. He's my boyfriend that I grew up with."
"… Oh? An affair?"
Something inside Miaomiao told him that something wasn't right. It wasn't the affair that he was concerned about, but his inner instinct was tingling, telling him that he had seen something like this before.
"Did you cheat on me?"
"No. I went there to break up with him. I gave him a refined Yin stone to chase him away."
Miaomiao was relieved that Jiang Lan dumped her mysterious boyfriend, but it didn't change the fact that she cried and tried to hide it from him.
"Do you still love that man?"
"No. I hate him."
"Oh?" Now, Miaomiao got more curious about how her relationship with Xie Tian, "Why so?"
"He was supposed to sell his fortune to free me earlier! If he really loves me, he could have given all those treasures or cultivation techniques that he found to me. Then, I could have bought my freedom without losing my virginity to you."
"…"
"I lost everything just to reach the 2nd stage, but that son of a farmer simply got lucky and become a 2nd stage cultivator without an effort! I worked harder than him, so I deserve to be an immortal! He didn't sacrifice his family and his pride like me, so he doesn't deserve it!"
Despite being in a temporary broken stage, Jiang Lan was furious when she talked about Xie Tian. Also, her reasoning didn't make sense as it sounded like a child throwing tantrum.
True, Xie Tian didn't rescue Jiang Lan before Miaomiao took her virginity. However, that didn't make Xie Tian the bad guy. Xie Tian found and used whatever fortune for himself because it was his right and his luck. Jiang Lan didn't have the right to claim Xie Tian's possessions.
Still, because of Jiang Lan's outburst, Miaomiao could understand her true self. She was one of those entitled women who believed that everything revolved around her.
It was surprising, though. When Jiang Lan was still a slave, she was as timid as a hamster. When she was still a first-stage cultivator, she didn't have enough courage to even express her opinion.
Humans could change after they gained power. As soon as Jiang Lan got the taste of being a full-fledge cultivator who could utilize Qi, she revealed her dark self.
Miaomiao didn't know if this was her suppressed personality when she was a slave or it was the newly awaken ego. However, judging from her background, she might have had this kind of attitude before her parents sold her to the Xu Clan. After all, people's behavior couldn't change overnight.
"So, you're envious of his luck?"
"Yes. A farmer like him doesn't deserve this fortune! All his treasures, pills, and manuals should have belonged to me!"
"Then, what about me? Do you think that everything I have should be given to you?"
"Yes, young master. I'm your wife, so you should show me your love by giving everything to me. However, I'm also fine if you order me not to have them."
Jiang Lan was deadly frank when she was in the broken state. Even Miaomiao got intimidated by her straightforwardness.
Miaomiao sighed and snorted. He might have chosen the wrong wife, but Jiang Lan's body still had some use. Miaomiao determined to keep Jiang Lan in the broken state, so she couldn't backstab him or plot against him in the future.
'You're right, Qi Hong. This girl is an entitled bitch. She might have the talent to be my dao partner, but her personality is the worst. I can't have her as my main wife, or she'll ruin me.'
Miaomiao was thankful that Qi Hong had warned him earlier. Now, he was in favor of working under Qi Hong rather than Xu Xiuying.
"Are there other secrets that you're hiding, Jiang Lan?"
The interrogation continued, but Jiang Lan only held trivial secrets, such as her addiction for fermented fishes or how she enjoyed rough sex.
Since Jiang Lan didn't have other significant information, Miaomiao pushed her down on the bed. From this moment onward, she was no longer his wife but a sex doll.

Meanwhile, in a shabby blacksmith shop, an old dwarf was sitting behind a young man, who was also sitting crossed legs. Luo Cheng was administrating the condition of his blacksmith disciple by placing his palms on Xie Tian's back to send his Qi inside the latter's body.
In front of Luo Cheng, Xie Tian revealed his bare upper body, so his mentor could examine his internal injury.
"A heart devil disease. What the hell did you do, Xie Tian?"
"It's nothing, master."
"Nothing my ass! Heart devil disease is no joke. As long as you can't solve your grudge, you won't be able to ascend to the 6th stage or higher! Every breakthrough from now on will be twice more difficult!"
"It's really nothing."
Although Xie Tian was expressionless, his sad eyes said otherwise. The impact of getting dumped by his first love, the long-cherished childhood sweetheart, was not something that he could overcome within a day.
"Tch! That's why I've kept telling you to forget that broad you have been chasing!"
"I'm sorry…"
"Haiz…"
Luo Cheng was at a loss for words. This young man possessed a lot of potentials, but he was also a greenhorn.
Xie Tian excelled at blacksmith, mining, and saber. He could even utilize Yang Qi and applied it in his craft skills when he was had 1st stage strength. Yet, he was a fool when it came to women.
"I guess I can give you a hand. Who is your girlfriend's name? Maybe I can talk to her so-called HUSBAND, and make them give up on her. Or maybe I can create an opportunity for you to confront her again."
Solving hearts devil syndrome was easy in theory. Simply, one had to confront the source and overcome what troubled them. If it was a grudge, they could defeat their foes. If it was love-sick, they could just talk to the partner and logic their reasons. If it was a broken heart, they just had to find a new partner that returned their love.
In Xie Tian's case, Luo Cheng planned to bring him to confront his girlfriend. If it wouldn't work, he could ask Xu Xiuying to introduce a lonely disciple to Xie Tian and pair them as a couple.
"Her name is Jiang Lan. She's from the Silver Phoenix Sect."
"Ah, that's simple… huh? Who is it again?"
"… Jiang Lan."
"…"
Of course, Luo Cheng had heard of this girl's name. After all, a certain young man declined his invitation, and he bought a slave girl with this name.
'Aiya. This can be troublesome.'
