Awakened: The Spirit King!

After leaving Zhang Xiu alone in the one-room guesthouse with a connected bathroom, Xie Yang moved towards his house. All of it was part of the city lord's private land. It has been around three days since he left home. Lin Hua was waiting for him to return every second of those three days.

Although she knew it was wrong, and she knew that he had his responsibility to fulfill and that he couldn't stay by her side all day long, she still failed to control her emotions. Lin Hua wanted his companionship. In the few days that they had spent together, Xie Yang had showered her with so much that she found it hard to live without him.

Lin Hua was sitting in her wheelchair, which was next to the open window. She was staring outside of it, looking in the direction of the spiritual forest. The servants had told her that he had gone there, and she wished that he would return soon and return without a scratch from that dangerous place.

Her pretty eyes showed intense emotions. What was it if not loneliness, sadness, and worry? Without her husband, she felt lonely. Xie Yang not being with her for a few days surprisingly made her sad. And the fact that he was out in the wild with beasts that can tear humans apart with a single attack made her worry for his dear life.

Creak!

The sound of someone opening the door behind her snapped her out of her thought. Who was it? Who would come here at night? Was it the maids?

She turned her wheelchair around in a hurry, only to see the man who had occupied her heart and mind for the past few days. All the emotions in her eyes vanished. Happiness replaced them. Her joy doubled when she saw not a scratch on his face and noticed his stable face.

"Thank god you're back. Welcome home, lord husband." Lin Hua said as a beautiful smile blossomed on her face.

Her smile mesmerized her hard-working husband, who was doing his best to make money because he knew that he would need it to become strong and get the items necessary to cure her.

When he saw her smile, Xie Yang's heart skipped a beat. After a tiresome journey, he felt extreme happiness at being welcomed by his wife. She had her hair tied behind her, revealing her entire face for her husband to see. Moonlight was coming into the room through the window and falling on her white face with a clear complexion, making her look all the more graceful.

She looked like a fairy who had stepped out of a painting—extremely breathtaking, like a masterpiece that became a worldly wonder.

"Husband?"

Her call pulled Xie Yang back to the world, and he went up to her with hurried steps. After reaching close to her, he bowed and placed a kiss on her forehead, his lips touching her cold skin, making it warm. He whispered into her ears, "I'm back."

A single kiss and two words were all Xie Yang needed to please his wife. Her smile stretched from ear to ear. Although she was his wife and this house was hers too, from the day he went out, it didn't feel like a home to her. Now that he had returned, she again came to believe that this was her home. Her place was where he was. Her worries had vanished.

It was all peaceful, joyful, and perfect around her.

He scooped her into his embrace and princess-carried her to the bed. He sat down on it with her still in his arms. Then, he helped her sit in his lap.

"Did you miss me?" Xie Yang asked as he circled his hand around her and let her backrest on his chest.

She turned her head around to look at him. She admired his handsome face. His face was so pleasing to look at that she gave in to her desire and caressed it. "Lin Hua will be honest with you. I missed you truly, madly, deeply. My days were dull and gloomy days without you and had not a hint of joy.

Even when my father-in-law gifted me luxury jewelry pieces, I didn't feel any pleasure. I was always looking in the direction of the spiritual forest, waiting for you to return. "

The young woman in his hand was cold. How could he not understand that she was sitting next to the window for hours? A stream of spiritual energy surged out of his hand and enveloped her flesh. As it didn't enter her body, the promotional yin energy present in her elixir field didn't respond aggressively. His spiritual energy warmed her flesh, slowly but surely.

"Don't treat yourself like that next time, promise me." Xie Yang said in a soft voice, his dark eyes carrying adamant emotions looking straight into her eyes.

She responded, "Lin Hua promise not to mistreat herself next time, but lord husband, you can't stop me from missing you."

"Y-you, do as you like."

Xie Yang dared not scold her. He didn't have a heart cold enough to mistreat such a cute little wife. Ah yes, she was his little wife (concubine). Her family sold her to his father for only 100 gold taels. Usually, a man could marry a woman by giving a dowry of 5 silver taels, but since his father was a rich man, he was willing to hand out 100 gold taels.

Lin Hua's family didn't hesitate to accept it and send her to him.

Xie Yang was disgusted with her family.

Since they didn't treasure her, he will!

He will show them that they have missed the greatest gift of their life!

He will show the entire world that she was born to be a goddess!

"Now that you're here, I am happy." Lin Hua said as she turned around and snuggled close to him, her breast pressing into him, making him realize that they were erect.

Xie Yang pinched her cheeks gently and raised her face with one hand, and with the other, he pulled the strands of loose hair that dared to hide some parts of her face from his gaze.

"I'm glad I can make you happy by just being next to you." Xie Yang said, a doting look vivid on his face.

She made a move first and placed her lips on his, and he responded in kind, kissing her so profoundly that his tongue set hers on fire and made saliva belonging to the both of them leak out of the corner of her mouth.

He pulled his tongue out of her mouth, leaving her a panting mess. As she panted, looking like a red rose with an enticing scent and voice that charmed his soul, he kissed her nose, chin and moved downwards. Her face blossomed in red, and it spread as he licked her well-shaped but soft jaw. His nostril touched the skin of her slender, white swan-like neck.

It turned so hot that her long eyelashes quivered, and she felt as if she would melt under his teasing.

"I haven't told you this, right? I got a new maid to take care of you."

"I already have Hei and Bei. Why waste your money on hiring another to serve me?"

Was she even worth it?

Her husband was being too generous with her!

As a wife, it was her duty to safeguard his wealth!

"Unlike Hei and Bei, who aren't literate and don't know how to read and write, the new maid knows all that, and she will teach you too. She will be your maid but also your study companion. When I am not here, she will keep you accompanied and make sure you're eating well and taking the necessary nourishment to stay healthy.

She will teach you the proper decorum of a rich family and etiquette so that you won't be embarrassed when interacting with the misses of the other families. Do you understand?"

Zhang Xiu came from a family of wealth, and Xie Yang didn't doubt that she had learned it all. It would not be troublesome for her to teach all the things he mentioned to his sweet wife.

When she heard his words, her first reaction was priceless. Her doe-eyes looked at him in surprise. She reacted as if she had something unbelievable.

"I can learn to read and write?! Really?!"

Her father didn't waste his wealth in letting her learn. She was his daughter, but he treated her like a stranger, only helping her grow. She had always wanted to study and become a scholar, but her father wasn't supportive of her, nor was her stepmother. It wasn't like there was no school. There were many.

He didn't want to let her go there because she had a disability, and he felt that it would bring shame to him if anyone saw this daughter of his that his little wife gave birth to at the darkest and coldest of the night, which was the most inauspicious time. Hiring a private teacher, he found too costly. And what was the need of a disabled woman leaning anyway?

So, he didn't let her chase after her passion and turned down her request.

"I meant what I said. If you want, you can start learning as early as next week."

Xie Yang was waiting for the shadow guards of his father to confirm the information about her. Once she confirms her identity, he will let her come close to his wife. But before then, he will not.

"You're the best in the world." She said jovially as she hugged him and placed kisses on his head.

Her flower-like scent entered his nostril. His gaze darkened, brimming with love, lust, and a desire to become one with her. Lin Hua didn't notice it as he had buried his face in the crook of her neck.

"Do I get a reward for being good to you?" Xie Yang said as he licked her neck and his right hand went down her back to grope her buttock, and his other hand moved up to her chest.

"You want me?" Lin Hua whispered those hot words into his ears, her voice, he found too sweet to hear.

Xie Yang knew that her moans would be even sweeter than her whispers!

"My wife is so close to me that she can already guess my thoughts. I guess I can't hide anything from you any longer." He chuckled.

"Then, can you guess what's in my mind?" Lin Hua questioned as his hand stopped an inch away from grabbing her breasts, whose nipples had already hardened.

Xie Yang raised his head and looked into her eyes before saying, "I don't want to guess as I am afraid I might disappoint you."

"Silly husband, I want you too." Lin Hua said with a smile.

Her words ignited lust in her husband's heart!
