Black Belly Wife

Chapter 212: Grand Finale (1)

When Murong Yunshu heard what Chu Changge said, the rim of her eyes started to heat up again. She softly responded, "Me too."

At this time, Old Man Shenji in the witness' area said, "Say Chu Changge, can you guys not do your nostalgic moments there? Those who don't know will think your family is too big for you to feed so you have to join the fight in the ring."

"I do want to fight in the ring." Chu Changge said with a smile, and suddenly, as if he thought of something, he looked towards the witness' area. His gaze stopped on Old Man Shenji. He frowned and asked sternly, "Who are you?"

Old Man Shenji laughed. "You don't even recognise me?"

Without saying a word, Chu Changge twirled his finger and flicked it, and Old Man Shenji's white hair instantly fell to the ground and was replaced by a head of dark silky hair pouring down. "Will you take off the mask yourself, or do you want me to do it for you?" Chu Changge asked coldly.

Sect Leader Mo got up and pointed at 'Old Man Shenji' and asked, "Who are you? Why are you pretending to be Old Man Shenji?"

Everyone saw Old Man Shenji pouted and tore off the mask on his face, revealing his original appearance. The person behind the mask was Old Man Shenji's granddaughter. "My name is Ye Xiao Qing, the granddaughter of the Old Man Shenji. My Grandpa asked me to pretend to be him to attend the Martial Arts Assembly." She explained.

This turn of events caused everyone in the scene to stir up, and there was a constant buzz about this.

"Ridiculous! This is ridiculous! How could he let the plum tree wither in place of the peach tree for such a big event? Where is your Grandfather? I want to talk to him!"

"I myself want to know where he is." Ye Xiao Qing's eyes twinkled, and she asked Chu Changge, "Where is my Grandpa? Didn't he say he would come to me after waking you up? How come he hasn't shown up yet?" She asked while looking around.

Chu Changge looked gloomy. He hesitated for a moment before answering her questions. "Old Man Shenji has passed away."

Ye Xiao Qing froze, and then she cried out, "You're talking nonsense! My Grandpa is the number one expert in martial arts. There's no way he would die!"

"He spent his life's true qi to heal my wounds." Chu Changge's face was full of anguish.

Hearing Chu Changge's words, Ye Xiao Qing suddenly stopped crying. She recalled Old Man Shenji's words last night and quickly understood the matter's crookedness and straightness. "Did my Grandpa ask you to take care of me for the rest of your life?"

"Yes."

"Then, will you fulfil your promise to take care of me for the rest of my life?"

"No."

"You......b*stard! Your words can't even be trusted!" Ye Xiao Qing's eyes turned red with anxiety.

"I didn't agree to your grandfather's request." Chu Changge said.

Ye Xiao Qing: "Why?"

Chu Changge glanced at Murong Yunshu at his side, held her hand tightly and said, "Because I already have someone I need to take care of for the rest of my life."

"Then......what about me? With Grandpa gone, I...... I'll be alone." Ye Xiao Qing couldn't help but feel sad as she spoke, and her tears fell again like broken pearls.

Chu Changge: "Don't worry, you won't be alone. Although I did not promise to take care of you for the rest of your life, I did swear to him that I would find a man of your choice for you."

Ye Xiao Qing: "What if the person I like doesn't like me?"

Chu Changge: "Then force him to like you."

Ye Xiao Qing: "What if he doesn't give in?"

Chu Changge: "Then kill him to save you from thinking about him and having no desire to find your next target."

"......" Ye Xiao Qing rolled her eyes and said, "Then you should kill yourself first."

Chu Changge was greatly embarrassed, "Let's talk about this matter later. I'll settle some personal grudges first." After speaking, his thin lips hooked up as he turned his head towards Huo Zhantang and asked, "Do you want to kill yourself, or do you want me to give you a ride?"

Huo Zhantang's face was full of fear. "You, how can you......still be alive."

"How dare I die when you are still alive?" Chu Changge's appearance was enchanting, and the corners of his mouth carried a wanton smile.

Huo Zhantang stumbled and took two steps backwards, then turned and fled.

Chu Changge saw this scene and coldly snorted. He leapt up and landed in front of him. "Afraid of dying? Before provoking my people, you should have prepared yourself to die." After saying that, with a stroke of his arm, Qinglong rushed out, passed through Huo Zhantang's body, and returned to its sheath. [+]

The target was killed with just one move. The expression on Huo Zhantang's face froze at the moment when he was at his wit's end, and his body instantly fell down with a bang.

Phalanx Formation

Image Credit | The Hoplite Battle Experience (Formation and Tactics : The Phalanx) "Let's go." Chu Changge whispered. He picked up Murong Yunshu and whirled back to the witness' area. He sat on Murong Yunshu's previous position while she sat on his lap. In response, the quartet of East, South, West and North, together with the other Mojiao Sect people, followed suit by standing behind the couple, forming a huge phalanx formation behind the witness' area.

Sect Leader Mo once again wiped a handful of cold sweat and spoke bitterly towards Murong Yunshu. "Huo Zhantang is dead, and Old Man Shenji is an impostor. What should we do now?"

Murong Yunshu chuckled and said, "This is a matter of the jianghu, and I don't have the ability to interfere. Now my husband is here. You can just ask him."

The sound of 'husband' made Chu Changge's heart blossom. Without waiting for Sect Leader Mo to open his mouth, he proactively advised, "Continue the competition."

Sect Leader Mo: "With whom?"

Chu Changge: "Of course, the person who defeated Huo Zhantang."

In an instant, Sect Leader Mo's beard twitched violently, with an expression of him wishing he could drop dead right away. It took a long time before he spoke, "The person who defeated Huo Zhantang is you."

Chu Changge seemed to have just realised the problem. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Then, tell them to compare their martial arts with me. You help me ask if anyone wants to challenge me."

"......" Who dares to throw away their life when you can even kill them invisibly with just your murderous aura?

Seeing that Sect Leader Mo did not say anything, Chu Changge added, "If there is no one to challenge me, conclude the match by beating the drums early. Don't delay me from catching up with my wife." After saying that, he lightly pinch Murong Yunshu's waist while smiling ambiguously at her.

Murong Yunshu suddenly blushed. Her pink fist lightly hammered his chest as she whispered, "You're not acting seriously."

Chu Changge laughed freely as he whispered in her ear, "If I become serious, will you still want me?"

His hot breath tantalised Murong Yunshu's heart and soul. His long-lost warmth immediately awakened her dried-up body and mind, and her hands involuntarily gripped his torso.

Murong Yunshu's reaction heated up the place between Chu Changge's legs, and he hated that he could not put her 'on the spot' right then.

Sect Leader Mo, listening to the two's conversations on the side, coughed awkwardly twice, reminding the couple not to behave like there was nobody else present. It was alright if they wanted to be affectionate behind the door after the Martial Arts Assembly ended. But flirting in public was against decency.

Sect Leader Mo's cough made the mesmerised Murong Yunshu immediately sober up. She frantically sat straight in Chu Changge's arms and pulled away from him to a certain distance.

Murong Yunshu's shyness and helplessness pleased Chu Changge. He laughed out loud and smilingly said, "Madam, don't be in a hurry. I will come back to pay the rent after winning the Great Leader position."

Hearing the words 'pay rent', Murong Yunshu's face blushed to the roots of her ears, and her cheeks were burning hot.

Chu Changge loved her extremely bashful appearance. The corners of his mouth slightly hooked as he continued whispering something wicked in her ear. "This husband of yours will make up the rent for these three years one by one. I will try not to let you lose money."

I will not let you lose money, huh? Murong Yunshu was speechless. "The previous one will be exempted. Just don't delay the rent in the future." If she really let him make up for it, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to get out of bed this year.

"Haha. This husband of yours will pay it three times a day, at a fixed time and with a fixed amount." Chu Changge laughed heartily. [T/C]

Murong Yunshu, on the other hand, bowed her head in disgrace and sighed in her heart: this person really has no shame at all!

On the side, when Sect Leader Mo listened to their conversation, black lines popped up on his old face that started to twitch. His heart was shouting, public morals are degenerating with each passing day! While the people of the Mojiao Sect had their faces full of worship. Their Leader was really talented. He could even find such a shameless excuse to pay rent!

"Sister Murong, what kind of rent does he want to pay?" The simple-minded Ye Xiao Qing asked.

Murong Yunshu's cheeks heated up as she answered, "Room rent." The rent for the room.

"Eh? Aren't you guys husband and wife? How come he must pay rent when living in your house?" Ye Xiao Qing didn't understand even more.

Murong Yunshu suppressed her bashfulness, soothed her swirling heart and said seriously. "He eats and drinks from what I provided and does nothing but loafing and jesting all day. If you don't give him some pressure, he will sooner or later become a man who lives off a woman."

Ye Xiao Qing nodded with understanding at her words. "That makes sense. When I get married in the future, I also want my husband to pay the rent on time every day. If he refuses to pay, I will cast him off!"

Everyone sweated profusely, only to feel that there was a large group of crows above their heads.

Chu Changge smiled ambiguously and said, "Don't worry, he will be happy to pay."

Murong Yunshu looked disdainfully at him. "You think everyone is as 'honest' as you are?" The word 'honest' was squeezed out from between her teeth.

"Madam, you know too little about men." Chu Changge smiled smugly.

"......" Was he trying to say that all crows were black and all men in the world were generally lustful like him? If that was the case, she really did not know much about men. After all, she had too little experience. "I don't mind getting to know a few more men and gaining a deep insight." Murong Yunshu said leisurely.

Chu Changge immediately kissed-up to her as he smilingly responded, "No need, no need. Madam is already very knowledgeable. If Madam wants to experience different men, this husband of yours can prepare a few more human skin masks, and Madam can flip the name plates as Madam wishes."

Flip the name plates

"......" Flip the name plates......only he could come up with this kind of idea.

East, South, West and North had a look of contempt on their faces. Oh, Leader, what a loyal dog you are!

The more Ye Xiao Qing listened, the more confused she became. She tilted her head up to ask Feng Cheng beside her. "How did their conversation go from paying rent to flipping name cards?"

How could he explain this? Feng Cheng thought about it and said, "When you grow up, you will understand that paying rent and flipping name cards are the same."

Ye Xiao Qing's round eyes glared at him and argued, "I'm already big enough!"

Feng Cheng looked her up and down for a moment and said, "Still need to be a bit bigger."

"You're......you're so gross!" Ye Xiao Qing blushed and covered her chest.

Three black lines appeared on Feng Cheng's forehead. "I was referring to your age."

Ye Xiao Qing froze, followed by the feeling of great embarrassment, and she blushed even more.

This scene was seen by Chu Changge, and an idea immediately popped into his mind. He wanted to discuss it with Murong Yunshu, but she seemed to have already guessed what was in his mind as she slowly nodded. Chu Changge was very happy. As a person with a status of a man who lived off his wife, it was always important to get his wife's nod of approval! "Feng Cheng, she will be left to you." Chu Changge said coldly.

Feng Cheng was slightly stunned. "What do you mean 'leave her to me'?"

Chu Changge: "You'll understand."

Feng Cheng looked at the sky. He did not understand at all! "Don't create an odd pairing as soon as you come back. Be careful, or you will suffer divine retribution."

Chu Changge: "You don't even refuse as soon as you open your mouth, so be careful of divine retribution." His words were overflowing with threats.

To Feng Cheng, this sentence was no different from 'if you don't agree, you can go back to the mountain and become a caveman'. Therefore, he silently acquiesced. Two people were better than one. Besides, this little girl was fascinating. As Feng Cheng was thinking, he could not help but look sideways at Ye Xiao Qing. He noticed that her cheeks were slightly red. She had pink lips and a pair of dark eyes that seemed to display her non-understanding of the current situation. She looked so shy and cute, which stirred Feng Cheng's heart and soul. He suddenly wished he could embrace her. Please read this chapter at xinshou blogspot com.

After solving the primary issue and no one in the audience came to challenge him, Chu Changge got up and put Murong Yunshu down. He stretched and lazily said, "Since no one comes forward to challenge me, then all should disperse. From today onwards, I am the Great Leader of Martial Arts."

"This......" Sect Leader Mo's face looked a little awkward. "This is not proper."

Chu Changge raised his slanted eyebrows and questioned, "Where did it become improper?"

Sect Leader Mo pointed out. "Good and evil can't coexist."

Hearing the words 'good and evil can't coexist', Chu Changge genuinely wanted to slap Sect Leader Mo's brain open and see whether his brain was filled with pine flower stone or marble. "If you think it's wrong, I don't mind if you join the Mojiao Sect. They are all evil and devilish, so there is no such thing as good and evil there." Chu Changge said lazily. At the end, he shouted on the ring, "Anyone else who thinks it's wrong, all can join the Mojiao Sect."

The corners of Sect Leader Mo's mouth twitched. "Leader Chu, that is not right."

Chu Changge's black eyes sank at his words. He looked sideways at him and coldly asked, "Will it only be right after I kill you?"

When Chu Changge became angry, Sect Leader Mo also became furious, and he spoke back at Chu Changge with a straight, thick-skinned face. "If you want to kill me, then do it. You will never be the Great Leader of Martial Arts unless I die!"

In an instant, every sword was drawn, and bows were bent.

When Murong Yunshu saw this situation, she hastened to intervene in the dispute and try to calm things down by telling Chu Changge. "It is not a glorious thing to be the leader of these people. Let them have the position, okay?" She did not want him to be the Great Leader of Martial Arts. The jianghu was already muddy enough. Why should he take over this mess?

"I have to be the Great Leader. Unless there is someone capable enough to defeat me. Otherwise" At this point, Chu Changge paused for a beat. He looked disdainfully at the audience and finished his sentence with the following words, word by word. "Those who obey me will prosper, and those who oppose me will die."

Once these words were said, the whole audience once again stirred up. They whispered in twos and threes, with some being indignant and dissatisfied with Chu Changge. While some expressed their desire to become wise men who would look after their own hides.

Seeing that Chu Changge insisted on doing so, Sect Leader Mo pondered for a moment and said. "Old Man Shenji has passed away, the Abbot of Shaolin has returned to the secular world, and the Martial Arts Assembly is missing two witnesses. If you want to be the Great Leader of Martial Arts, you must find two other witnesses that everyone can trust and then fight one more time inside the ring to win the tournament."

Chu Changge did not even think twice. "Fine. Come back tomorrow." After saying that, he left with Murong Yunshu. Feng Cheng and others also left the assembly site. Once they left, the major sects also dispersed.
