Chapter 16 – Some people laugh and then

Originally, it was so difficult to nurture life.

Wearing a carefree long shirt and a pair of boots embroidered with fierce beasts, Wu Wang sat on the steps in front of the wooden house, revealing his smooth muscle lines and secretly worrying.

After half a year of effort, almost every method had been tried, and his parents had been together on the top of the snow mountain all the time.

But there was still no good news.

What, did the Star God not open the two-child policy?

"Master."

Lin Suqing, in a pink fairy dress, asked softly, "How are those merchants over there being handled?"

Wu Wang looked over to where several merchants from the Ring Dog Kingdom were hanging.

These merchants were short in stature, similar in appearance to the human race, with fluffy black and white dog heads and a naturally simple and honest temperament.

The Ring Dog Kingdom and the North Wilderness Dog Clan were supposed to be of the same race, with the biggest difference being their heads. The former was closer to a mature and stable "Husky", while the latter had a "Shiba Inu" style.

This country was famous for its business in the Great Wasteland and was active in the nine fields and four seas. Their footprints could always be found in overseas countries.

Wu Wang flicked his finger and ice spikes flashed by, and the several merchants from the Ring Dog Kingdom fell to the ground.

These merchants did not flee when they got their freedom, but instead kept bowing and saluting, shouting:

"Master, you have wronged us!"

"What we sold to you are all genuine! The Lu Shu beast has almost been killed off by the Human Realm cultivators. It was a skin that we had a hard time getting!"

"You are still young, there is no need to rush to have children! Perhaps it is not the things we sold to you that have a problem!"

Lin Suqing raised her voice and scolded them, "Be quiet, my master hasn't spoken yet, what are you anxious about?"

Wu Wang sighed slowly, his mentality had already stabilized.

"For now, I'll believe you once more and continue to help me search for the treasures of Yi Zi."

His tone slowed down, and his gaze fell on these merchants. Although his voice was flat, it had a kind of majesty.

"You have earned quite a bit from me, and we each take what we need. The barter system emphasizes the two words of honesty.

Under the gaze of the Star God, if you have any crooked ideas, you should know the consequences."

The merchants quickly replied, "We know, we know."

"Master, please rest assured, we have rules. We only take the part that we can take, and we also have faith!"

"Master, we mainly came to bring you some good things..."

One of the merchants from the Ring Dog Kingdom grinned, whistled a few times, and several luggage-carrying canine spirit beasts ran over from afar.

After rummaging through their luggage for a while, they took out several sealed books and respectfully handed them to Lin Suqing, who then passed them to Wu Wang.

"Hey, hehe, take a look, these are several particularly difficult-to-obtain Human Realm techniques."

"Is that so?"

Wu Wang looked at them for a few moments, then threw them to Lin Suqing, saying with a smile, "See if you can learn them. I cultivate the Star-Praying Technique and don't need these."

Lin Suqing cooperatively replied, "Thank you, Master."

These merchants from the Ring Dog Kingdom looked at each other and immediately understood something.

Next time they wanted to maintain their relationship by giving gifts, they should start with this woman!

After sending away these merchants, Wu Wang and Lin Suqing looked at each other, silently returned to the house, closed the wooden door, pulled up the curtains, and activated the soundproofing formation, then...

They sat on both sides of the desk, holding the several techniques and carefully reading them.

Urging their parents to have a child was not as comfortable as cultivating themselves!

Unknowingly, the sky over the grassland turned dark, and Lin Suqing lit the magic lamp in the wooden house.Due to taking the Xuncao Lingdan and her own cultivation improvement, she became even more beautiful and graceful, fulfilling Wu Wang's childhood dream of having a beautiful woman by his side.

With fair skin and a beautiful appearance, she outshone the winter plum blossoms, and her white teeth and bright eyes were more dazzling than autumn dew.

Her slender figure was wrapped in fairy silk, and her jade hairpins were entwined with her green hair.

She wondered why the certain junior brother who chose her as his apprentice might regret it. Wu Wang felt that this maid, assistant, and secretary would not embarrass him when taken out.

Lin Suqing asked, "Young Master, haven't you already reached the Gathering Qi stage? Why are you interested in these basic techniques?"

"Learn from the strengths of others and absorb more nutrients."

Wu Wang rubbed his sore eyes and explained, "Once a technique is chosen, it is difficult to change. The Thousand Absorption Technique can only be cultivated to the Returning to Origin stage. In the long run, before finding the main cultivation technique, I cannot break through to the Returning to Origin stage, but I can continue to accumulate cultivation. I will consider the Absorbing Spirits and Gathering Qi stages more, and maybe there will be unexpected gains."

Lin Suqing whispered, "Master told me that the technique is secondary, and the person practicing is the most critical."

Wu Wang retorted, "Then why do talented young people all crowd into major sects? Small sects are most eager for a complete set of advanced profound techniques."

Lin Suqing was at a loss for words.

"Although cultivation techniques have their strengths and weaknesses, what is most important is finding the one that suits you best."

Wu Wang smiled, "Since I have chosen the path of cultivation, I naturally want to obtain the technique that suits me best within my abilities. So, I can't rush it now."

Lin Suqing blinked and said, "But, Young Master, if you don't go to the Human Realm to find a master, it will be difficult to obtain such a wonderful technique here."

"That's why I'm working hard to go to the Human Realm."

Wu Wang threw the book in his hand on the table, feeling a bit depressed.

If his parents had successfully built a small portal, he could go to the Human Realm without worries, become an ordinary cultivator, work hard to become stronger, and solve his strange illness as soon as possible. But now, since there was no news from his parents, he could only carry this worry with him to the Human Realm. Not just for himself, but also for his parents and clan, he must be extra careful and not take unnecessary risks, even though he had not planned to take any risks.

"Oh, by the way," Wu Wang suddenly said, "try poking me with your hand."

"Huh?"

Lin Suqing was surprised.

Although she sometimes made Young Master happy, she had never been within a foot of Wu Wang, and even outside, she kept a distance of more than three feet from him, for fear that he would feel sad about his strange illness.

"Are you tired, Young Master?"

"Just poke me," Wu Wang smiled with a little confidence.

Lin Suqing's small hand trembled slightly. First, she moved to Wu Wang's side, then behind him. Her raised hand had nowhere to point, and finally, she poked Wu Wang's back of the hand cautiously.

A ray of light flickered, and a light blue halo appeared around Wu Wang's body. The transparent film, made of ice crystals resembling fine sand, wrapped around Wu Wang's hand, half an inch away, and wrapped in a layer of transparent water, blocking Lin Suqing's fingertip.

She had almost poked Wu Wang's back of the hand, and could still feel a slight soft touch.

"This! What is this!?"

Lin Suqing poked Wu Wang a few more times and jumped around behind him.

"The combination of the Star-Praying Technique and the Water Condensation Technique," Wu Wang smiled, "During battles, I can condense a close-fitting ice armor, so I don't need this small technique. With this technique, I'm not afraid to walk in crowds."

"Can you feel it when someone touches you?" Lin Suqing asked curiously.

"Of course not. If I could feel it, I would faint," Wu Wang smirked. "This way, it only makes me look normal. In reality, I still have no feeling. It's just to avoid drawing attention."

"Hmm?"

Wu Wang tilted his head slightly and happened to see Lin Suqing looking at him. Her long hair slipped down, stopped by the ice crystal film on his neck. Under her gaze, Wu Wang emitted a soft light.

His dark pupils were like whirlpools, making it hard for Lin Suqing to look away.

"Young master..."

Wu Wang suddenly stood up, startling Lin Suqing who quickly backed away and ended up lying on the bed behind her.

With a light breath, Wu Wang's face suddenly appeared in Lin Suqing's line of sight. She instinctively covered her collar with both hands, her eyes full of panic.

But at the call of "Suqing," all the panic disappeared, leaving only the sound of her pounding heart.

Gratitude, this was gratitude!

They had agreed to serve for six years, it was not because she had feelings for the young master. They could never be together...

They were getting closer and closer.

Lin Suqing's eyes were like silk, her lips trembling slightly, but she suddenly felt a lightness on her body.

Wu Wang had disappeared into thin air, leaving only the ice crystal film in his shape. Lin Suqing was caught off guard as the cold water poured down on her, making her shiver.

"Ah!"

"Hahaha! This is for all the times you've tortured me, young master! Hahaha!"

Wu Wang's laughter echoed outside the wooden house, while Lin Suqing's face turned red. She grabbed her short sword and rushed out, chasing after Wu Wang.

The guards in the distance saw this scene and smiled with satisfaction.

"The young master and Miss Lin have a really good relationship."

"It's friendship, not love. How could our young master marry a woman from another clan? Our Bear Hug Clan's girls would be heartbroken."

That day, Wu Wang and Lin Suqing kept running until sunset.

But later, Wu Wang's laughter turned into tears.

...

In the early morning, the Star-Praying sun rose from the east of the vast grassland.

The sound of majestic horns came from the sky, followed by the dull sound of thousands of horses galloping. The earth trembled slightly.

"They're back!"

Cheers could be heard from all over the hillside. Countless young girls, boys, old ladies, and strong women rushed towards the earth below the hill.

Not long after, a "tsunami" of countless beasts and giant wolf riders appeared in the distance. They were all excited and howled when they saw the endless tents.

Wu Wang, who had already received news of the chief's return, did not rush out to join the crowd.

He was only seventeen years old and had fair skin and tender flesh. Wherever he went, he would cause a commotion. Unmarried girls in the clan held all kinds of wooden sticks and went crazy for the young master.

He changed into a robe and a bone helmet that showed his identity as the young master, and sat quietly in front of the palace, holding a turtle shell with intricate runes carved on it, studying the ancient Star-Praying Technique recorded on it.

It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from "p𝑎wread.com".

Dad would be busy when he came back, drinking and chatting with the generals and priests who stayed behind. They could only chat at night.

Hmm, he also wanted to see how dad was doing lately.

But today, the situation seemed a bit unusual...

When the group of beasts and wolf riders slowed down in the distance, a snow bear over five meters tall did not slow down and leaped before the crowd.The snow bear spread its ice-blue wings and flew straight towards the mountain slope. It passed over Wu Wang's head, and the strong man on the bear's back jumped down. His powerful body emitted an immense and intimidating aura.

Lin Suqing and the guards quickly stepped back, showing respect for the leader.

The clan leader, who had just returned, glanced at her and walked straight to Wu Wang, muttering, "Why is this Miss Lin so thin?"

Lin Suqing could only suck in her breath, straighten her chest, and lift her head secretly.

Wu Wang asked, "Dad, do you have urgent matters?"

The strong man suddenly smiled brightly, throwing the two axes on his back to the guards beside him. He rubbed his hands and approached Wu Wang, bending down.

"Son, do you want to accompany a bed slave?"

Wu Wang: ...

"Dad, you forgot, I'm not even twenty yet."

"That's why!"

The strong man waved his hand, with countless admiring eyes from the slope, confidently and in a low voice, excitedly saying:

"I'll name you Xiong Ba because you're weak, and I want you to be more domineering!

Your grandfather's father used to tell me that the more difficult things are, the more we should face them head-on. Even if there are no difficulties, we should create them and face them!

Tonight, you'll experience the joy of being a man in advance!"

After speaking, the strong man turned his head and shouted, "Bring the slave over here! This is a gift for my son!"

There was an immediate cheer throughout the clan.

In the midst of the cheers, a slight sound of breaking air was heard. First, a tiny snowflake bloomed, and then a figure in ice-blue quietly appeared behind the strong man.

The cheers became even louder.

She was quite beautiful, and her graceful demeanor was rare. She wore a slim ice-blue dress, making her look like a goddess descending from a snowy mountain.

Indeed, this big shot had just moved from the snowy mountain.

She floated behind the strong man, her pretty face full of frost, but the surrounding cheers were too loud, and the strong man was too excited to notice her.

Wu Wang blinked at his own father and said seriously, "Dad, I'm only seventeen. I shouldn't be involved in these things."

"Hey! Silly child!"

The clan leader waved his big hand and chuckled:

"I suffered a lot because of your mother, who was my childhood sweetheart. Besides her, I never held the hand of a girl.

Even the young people in our clan, not just the young master here, but also the ordinary ones, are all knocked out two or three times before finding a devoted partner.

I'm also trying to help you cure your illness!"

Wu Wang's face was full of conflict, shaking his head, "Dad, I think you're wrong. Two people should respect each other. You and Mom are very affectionate."

He emphasized the word affectionate.

"Of course, we're affectionate, but I always feel a little regretful.

Bao'er."

Wu Wang gave up, "Okay, it's hopeless."

"Hey, Dad."

The clan leader chuckled, "This time, I bought seven or eight kinds of slaves that are particularly hard to find for you. Enjoy them! I didn't have this treatment back then. I was beaten by your grandfather every day!

Don't tell your mother yet. I'll talk to her first when she comes back, and then..."

Xiong Han paused in his speech, suddenly seeing a touch of ice blue through Wu Wang's eyes.

"Seal."

The woman hovering behind the clan leader gently opened her lips, and a six-sided treasure wheel like snowflakes appeared behind her.
