My Wife is A Sword God

Chapter 28: New Residence

Outside the city of Jinyang, the mountains and forests resembled a dormant giant black beast. A luxurious carriage, pulled by two snow-white dragon horses, was speeding towards the north.

Inside the carriage were Tang Xuan and his companions.

Tang Xuan, at this moment, still couldn’t recover from the shattering of the Heart Questioning Platform. He clenched his teeth and kept muttering, “I want him dead, I want his whole family dead.”

Seeing this, Old Mo couldn’t help but sigh. This trip to Jinyang City was entirely the young master’s impulsive decision. He wanted to humiliate both the Liu and Qin families and climb the ranks within the imperial family. Hence, he hadn’t reported to the family master.

Unexpectedly, this journey not only shattered his pride but also stripped away the foundation of his cultivation. With this loss, how could the young master compete against the legitimate son back home?

“Young Master, rest assured. After returning to Heavenly City, I will report this matter to the family master. The next time we come here, it will be the day of the Qin family’s destruction.”

But just as he finished speaking, Old Mo suddenly looked alarmed. He immediately grabbed Tang Xuan and swiftly jumped out of the carriage.

At the same time, the speeding carriage seemed to be crushed by a mountain, directly sinking into the ground. Rocks crumbled, and blood flowed like a river.

“Who is it?” Old Mo shouted loudly, his eyes scanning the surroundings warily. When he looked up, he saw the person responsible.

The figure wore a black robe and a faceless white mask, revealing only a pair of cold, emotionless eyes.

“We have no grudge against you. Why are you attacking us?” Old Mo sensed the opponent’s immense power but didn’t retaliate immediately, trying to probe through words.

Unfortunately, the faceless person remained silent, directly grasping the air. Old Mo let out a hysterical scream as he felt his left arm being crushed, even though there was nothing physically touching him!

What terrifying technique was this?!

“Young Master, run!” Tang Xuan was finally jolted back to reality by the scream and the desperate cry. He looked at Old Mo’s injuries in horror and then sprinted towards the forest.

Old Mo stood in front of the faceless person and said in a deep voice, “As long as I’m alive, I won’t allow you to harm the young master and others. Who are you?!”

His eyes widened in disbelief, gazing at the scene unfolding before him. Centered around the faceless person, a terrifying pressure spread in all directions. In less than a moment, there was a deafening roar, and the earth trembled. Within a mile, everything turned to ashes, and the once dense forest instantly became a flat plain!

“Domain.” Old Mo murmured this word, and his body disintegrated like dust, scattering in the wind. He never understood why in such a remote place, a small city like Jinyang, would harbor such a powerful individual.

The faceless person swept a glance around and then vanished into thin air.

Night fell, and silence returned.

Perhaps due to the events of the previous day, Qin Feng didn’t wake up until noon. Under Qing Er’s care, he freshened up, dressed, and walked out of his room, subconsciously looking towards the courtyard.

The beautiful figure was nowhere to be seen, and even his second brother, who usually practiced swordsmanship in the courtyard, was absent.

The servants and maids in the mansion were busy back and forth, packing things. This scene was reminiscent of when the family had moved previously.

Curious, Qin Feng asked Qing Er beside him, “What are they doing?”

Qing Er replied, “Young Master might not know. Due to the arrival of the young lady, the Qin residence now feels a bit cramped. Coupled with the damage caused yesterday, it’s inconvenient to repair. Therefore, after careful consideration, Master has found a larger mansion. We’re moving there today.”

“Where did my father get the money?!” Qin Feng was surprised. He knew the family’s financial situation quite well.

“Young Master may have forgotten, but yesterday, the Liu family sent a dowry. It’s being used to purchase the new mansion, and there’s not much difference in the funds.”

Qin Feng opened his mouth, thinking that the dowry from yesterday could alleviate some of the financial pressure on the Qin family. Little did he know that the money, which was still warm, had already been spent?

This wasteful person, truly extravagant.

“Where are my parents?” Qin Feng asked, his hand on his forehead.

“Master and Second Madam have already gone to the new mansion. Do you need Qing’er to escort Young Master there?”

Qin Feng shook his head. “Just tell me the location, I’ll go on my own.”

Qing’er explained that the new residence was near the center of Jinyang City, where the housing prices were much higher than the surrounding areas. The Moonlit Pavilion  he had bought for a large sum of money was also nearby.

After learning the location, Qin Feng stepped out of the damaged gate and met Xing Sheng, who was standing next to the door holding a long halberd.

“You didn’t return to the Heavenly City?” Qin Feng looked surprised. He thought Xing Sheng would return to the imperial capital after escorting them and rejoin the army, but he didn’t expect to find him here.

Xing Sheng replied, “The mission I received before coming here was to leave the Divine Marquis Army and serve as Miss and Young Master’s bodyguard. Since Miss has her sword attendant protecting her now, I’ve been staying here, waiting for you to come out.”

Upon hearing the word “Sword Attendant,” Qin Feng couldn’t help but recall the exhilarating scene from last night, even in his dreams, he was surrounded by the vast, pure white full moon.

“Young Master?”

“Huh?” Qin Feng snapped back to reality and saw Xing Sheng’s suspicious expression. He cleared his throat and said, “Let’s go to the new mansion.”

Jinyang City was not large. After a short while, they arrived outside the new mansion.

Looking at the new mansion, which was more than ten times larger than the original one, Qin Feng felt emotional. From now on, he wouldn’t be awakened by his younger brother’s sword training anymore.

As they entered the mansion, servants and maids were busy cleaning the new residence.

Qin Feng casually strolled around and was surprised to find a small lake inside the mansion. Such a setup explained why it cost so much money.

In the center of the lake, there was a pavilion. Liu Jianli, dressed in white, was sitting there quietly. Beside her was Lan Ningshuang in blue clothes, resembling a painting of a beautiful lady from afar.

Qin Feng didn’t choose to disturb them. Honestly, he didn’t know how to face Liu Jianli yet. Since that was the case, he could only take it step by step.

The two quietly left, but Lan Ningshuang in the pavilion had already noticed them.

She whispered, “Miss, Young Master just arrived.”

“Mm.”

“Miss, Young Master didn’t share the room with me last night.”

“Mm.”

Lan Ningshuang sighed, “Actually, Miss, you can talk to Young Master. He… He’s a good person.”

A gentle breeze brushed past, lifting the strands of her hair, creating ripples on the lake.

This time, Liu Jianli didn’t respond. She just stared at the water, lost in her thoughts.
