Against The Gods
Chapter 10 – Stars Hide Grass

He had married such a beautiful wife on his wedding night, he could not touch, caress any part of his body, or even sleep in his own bed. She could only quietly hug her knees as she leaned against the wall in the corner of her room …

Xiao Che now truly sensed the evil in this world.

The light of the red candle reflected in this newly transformed room, making it look beautiful. Two red-clothed people entered a long silence, one sitting on the edge of the bed and the other curled pitifully in a corner. The only sound that was heard during this dragging silence was the faint sound of their breathing.

After a while, Xiao Che finally could not help but say: "You won't .... really make me stay here all night?

Xia Qingyue's long eyelashes fluttered and the graceful curves of her body changed slightly to lie on the bed. He removed the dark red curtain and it fell down, hanging down. Xiao Che could only see a faint hazy shadow under the dim candlelight. Suddenly, Xia Qingyue waved her hand and the cold windy wind extinguished the two red candles simultaneously.

"……" If it wasn't impossible for him to defeat this woman, even though she was as cold as she looked, he would still jump her.

“I was just kidding before. Not only am I not drunk, I haven't even had one sip all afternoon …. You can't even accept a little joke, you don't have a sense of humor. "Xiao Che muttered in annoyance.

“I know you're not drunk. "Xia Qingyue replied coldly:" But I really hate men who can defecate and urinate anywhere. ”

Urinate and urinate ... Where are you?

Could it be ... when he tried to take out the wine from the Sky Poison Pearl?

F*ck !!

Xiao Che's eyes widened as he jumped from his corner: “You said I urinated carelessly anywhere? With which eyes do you see it? You just heard my voice pouring wine! Pouring wine ... pouring wine! As an honorable man from the Xiao Clan, I would never do something as uncultured and filthy as that. You are allowed to look down on my Profound power but not insult my noble character and personality !! ”

Slightly white after Xiao Che roared at her, he heard Xia Qingyue's relaxed voice: “I was just joking too. ”

“! # $ ... ”Xiao Che almost vomited his blood.

Depressed, Xiao Che returned to his corner and became silent again .. This woman really knows how to joke !!

Normally she would sleep comfortably in her bed but on her wedding night, she had to sleep in a corner .. There was no way she could fall asleep! After enduring for a long time, Xiao Che let out his voice again: “So, when did you return to Frozen Cloud Asgard? Tomorrow, or the day after? "

Xia Qingyue: "!?"

Xiao Che laughed with a light expression and calmly explained: "Although I know a little about the Frozen Cloud Asgard's ways, I know that they only accept women. The emotions of love are forbidden and they all must be holy. There are many beautiful women in Frozen Cloud Asgard and I have never heard of anyone getting married. But you married me. It seems like even among the people of Frozen Cloud Asgard, your talents and gifts are rare. You may be a talent they have only seen once in hundreds of years. Otherwise, why else would they break the precedent in your favor? "

Xia Qingyue: "……"

Xiao Che lifted his head and looked at the darkness of his ceiling and continued: "For a person like you, they will do anything to recruit you to their Frozen Cloud Asgard in the shortest possible time. There were bound to be many powerful practitioners who learned the Profound way that ordinary people would never see throughout their lives, and countless treasures as well. Under these circumstances, your Profound power and status would skyrocket. You may be leaving soon, am I right?

Xia Qingyue remained silent for a long time. After a while, he replied in a faint voice: “Another month. ”

"Annex?" Xiao Che's shocked expression became a smile as he lowered his head and whispered, "Thank you. ”

Xia Qingyue: "?"

“You must have asked them for this month. I'm doubtful that Frozen Cloud Asgard will let you delay your recruitment and let you stay with a useless person like me against your will. One month is quite a long time and you are their precious talent. In the future, you can even reach the same level and even be on par with Frozen Cloud Asgard Mistress. Others may laugh at me, ridicule me, and never put me in their eyes, but someone like you who will improve to unimaginable lengths in the future, is willing to marry me. You try to protect and maintain the pride of a ludicrous man like me. Although I know you did this to repay the kindness of my late father, I thank you just the same. ”

"Not needed . '' Xia Qingyue replied emotionlessly. But his heart shifted slightly within him as he became a little moved by what he said. He was not at all wrong, as even his master told him that a talent like him was as rare as even in Frozen Cloud Asgard. Her employer even said that once Xia Qingyue entered Frozen Cloud Asgard, she was confident that she could break through the Profound Spirit Realm and even reach the Profound Earth Realm … The level that not even the number one practitioner in Floating City, Xiao Lie, could reach.

Reaching the Profound Earth Realm before the age of twenty .. To the people in Floating Cloud City, it was an unimaginable feat.

“Before I marry you, I thought you would be like everyone who praised me and ignored me, but you were better than I thought. Not only are you beautiful, you are also talented and kind. As a woman, you can be considered perfect.

Xia Qingyue: "……"

"Well, since you're so nice, you certainly wouldn't let your husband sleep in the corner on your wedding night, would you? My bed was quite large and definitely would not be crowded if two people slept on it…. ”

Xiao Che bent his mouth and obediently shut his mouth as his stiff butt bitterly returned to where he had sat before.

"There's someone here. '' Xia Qingyue suddenly exclaimed.

After a while, Xiao Che heard the soft sound of footsteps. If he had accidentally tried to hear it, he would have never noticed those footsteps. The owner of the footsteps suddenly stopped in front of his yard. Careful footsteps stopped right in the middle of the courtyard and did not go any further .. because in the room was the untouched Xia Qingyue. After sneaking around the courtyard for half a day, the owner of the footsteps left quietly, in the same way as they had secretly slipped in.

It was night and Xiao Yulong could not sleep. He looked out the window with a panicked expression on his face from time to time.

The door opened and Xiao Yang's footsteps rushed in. Xiao Yulong narrowed his eyes and asked: "How is it?"

“It ...” Xiao Yang carefully looked at Xiao Yulong's expression and spoke very carefully, “I just came from Xiao Che's place, it looks like Xiao Che. "" …… "Xiao Yulong's hopeful expression fell from his face.

Xiao Yang's heart was pounding fast and he hurriedly said, “But you don't have to worry Boss. Xia Qingyue even looked at the people from the governor's house and Yuwen's family with disregard, maybe she even liked Xiao Che from the trash. Even though he hasn't been expelled, it's probably because. She probably didn't want him to be laughed at .. Even though she was in the same room as Xia Qingyue, I doubt they were lying on the same bed. He might be lying on the ground right now as well.

Xiao Yulong's erratic dark face directed his eyes towards Xiao Che's courtyard. He clenched his fists: "Xia Qingyue is the woman I want, and no one can interfere in my affairs! I will personally check what happened. Really don't let him touch Xia Qingyue !! ”

"Yes!" Xiao Yang quickly replied.

Xiao Che who was like a little dwarf that rolled up a ball was still awake in the corner of his room in the middle of the night. He opened his eyes and raised his left hand to look at the center of his palm. Within the darkness, there was a faintly conspicuous green light emanating from the Sky Poison Pearl.

In the Azure Cloud Continent, with only the power of the Sky Poison Pearl, he alone stirred the winds and storms of the world, but also infuriated the entire Azure Cloud Continent, it almost consumed all of its poisonous power!

The Sky Poison Pearl had fused with his body to become a part of him, and he could barely sense the usual existence of intoxication. Before his death in his killing field, he had used the power of the Sky Poison Pearl to slaughter many powerful practitioners. He had retracted the power of the Sky Poison Pearl and his poisonous strength dried up. If you are tired, you can slowly recover. However, the excess withdrawals directly depleted the resources, making it possible, almost impossible to restore them to their original strength.

The Sky Poison Pearl currently only had the most basic detoxification, refinement, and fusion abilities.

With his Profin Vein decommissioned and the power of the Sky Poison Pearl drained, he would never be seen as an important person in this small town.

The most unbearable fact is .. that he does not even have the ability to complete his marriage with his own wife!

If he wanted to possess strength, the most fundamental step he had to take was to first refine his shattered Profound Veins.

Fix Deep Veins …

Xia Qingyue was confident that her Profound Veins could not be restored in the way that ordinary practitioners would use them. But to him, this was not impossible since he was the successor of a medical saint! His teacher had told him many times about the theory of healing in medicine. When facing a problem, one must remember that there is a cause and effect. If there is a problem, there must be a solution. If anyone suffers, there must be a healer. In this world, there were no incurable diseases and if one were to say there was one, it was simply a lack of healing ability itself.

Regarding how to refine his Profound Veins, Xiao Che had thought about it to this day. His profound veins were not congenital defects from birth, but were damaged by others at birth. After growing up, his Profound Veins had now been completely crippled, making him unable to use the most conventional methods to recover them.

In order to destroy the flawed old Profound Veins and make another one, he needed at least three things …

"Wife, are you asleep?" Ask Xiao Che.

After a long silence, he still did not receive an answer.

"Cough cough, your wife doesn't really sleep, does she?" Ask Xiao Che again.

"My name is Xia Qingyue!" Xia Qingyue replied in a cold soft voice.

“I know your name is Xia Qingyue. "Xiao Che scratched his brows and strangely asked:" My wife, I have something to ask you. ”

"Call me Xia Qingyue!" He said with anger.

"Oh, okay!" Xiao Che nodded. With a face full of poker, he asked: "Wife, after you go to Frozen Cloud Asgard, are you able to obtain the Seven Profound Gem Grass, Purple Veined Sky Crystals, or even the Sky Spots, and the wild beast pellets of the Earth Profound Realm? Can you master all three things? "
