My Wife is A Sword God

Prince Chu paused for a moment before speaking, “Liu Jianli, daughter of Duke Liu, is the youngest third stage sword god in history.”

“The women of the Azure Dragon Lineage of the Dragon Clan are truly breathtaking. I had a brief encounter with your father once, but I don’t think he would remember me.”

Upon hearing this, Liao Yuan was shocked. 

Who in the Great Qian didn’t know Liu Jianli? Her extraordinary talent in swordsmanship, the failed ordeal of establishing dominion over Heaven and Earth, the subsequent partial paralysis, and yet her reappearance in the world, stepping into the realm of the third-tier Sword God.

As for the reputation of the Dragon Clan, it was thundering far and wide, especially the Azure Dragon lineage, which was akin to royalty among them.

Suddenly, Liao Yuan thought of something and looked at the black-robed young man in surprise. If he wasn’t mistaken, weren’t those two women his wives?

Seeing Liao Yuan’s astonished expression, Prince Chu said, “Earlier, the matter of the Dragon Clan’s martial arts competition for marriage caused quite a stir in the Imperial City. You must have heard about it.”

Liao Yuan was stunned for a moment, then nodded, “Later, I heard that a Literary Saint broke through the three martial arts platforms set up by the Dragon Clan, married a daughter of the Dragon Clan, and glorified the reputation of our human race.”

At this point, Liao Yuan looked directly at Qin Feng and realised the connection.

“Yes, this man is Qin Feng of the Qin family, appointed by the Emperor as Grand Chancellor of the Cabinet. He is very knowledgeable. He once competed with everyone in the National Academy outside the Grand Literature Academy and never lost.”

“His attainments in the art of war are even more astonishing. The cunning tactics of war spread among the soldiers in the Western Regions are also derived from his understanding of the art of war.,” Prince Chu said with a smile.

Liao Yuan’s expression was filled with surprise. He had thought that the art of warfare came from the God of War, Liu Tianlu, but he hadn’t expected it to come from this young man.

Unknowingly, I have become so famous… Qin Feng straightened his back, pretending to be humble and said, “Prince Chu, you are flattering me.”

Prince Chu then listed Qin Feng’s achievements one by one, such as his extraordinary medical skills, the production of gunpowder, the establishment of the Peaceful Academy to accept students from poor families, the resolution of the undead disaster in Shuliang City, the improvement of the Martial Qi Control Art to fix its flaws, and even the Emperor’s introduction of the Imperial Examination System.

“Since gunpowder was invented by him, it is only natural that he owns it.”

“Even if the Emperor found out, he wouldn’t say much,” Prince Chu picked up the teacup on the stone table and blew gently.

The shock of the distant past pales in comparison to the events of today. He never thought that gunpowder would actually be invented by Qin Feng.

By the way, how could someone so young have reached such a level? His knowledge is so vast!

Qin Feng’s expression changed slightly, showing just the right amount of cunning in front of others to put them at ease.

But Prince Chu knew him too well, as if he had investigated him secretly, which made him quite uncomfortable!

Especially the imperial examination system. When he first met Princess Anya and asked her to present it to Emperor Ming, he never interfered from beginning to end.

In theory, no one but the Emperor and Anya were supposed to know about his involvement with the Imperial Examination System. But how did Prince Chu find out?

Qin Feng looked up at Prince Chu and their eyes met.

Qin Feng, who had read extensively, naturally knew more about Prince Chu than ordinary people.

In the past, when there was a contest for the throne, besides the current Emperor Ming, the Prince Chu from the Western Regions was also a strong contender, with considerable support in the court. 

However, what took everyone by surprise was that Prince Chu voluntarily withdrew from the competition for the throne. The reason he gave was simply that Emperor Ming was the rightful heir to the Great Qian dynasty, the legitimate ruler!

Why would such a person pay so much attention to me?

Qin Feng’s expression was complex as he subtly leaned towards his two wives for reassurance.

There were several followers in this courtyard, and they looked like powerful masters at first glance.

Although they might not be able to match the strength of his wives individually, the advantage lies in their numbers.

Prince Chu sensed his thoughts and put down the teacup in his hand: “There is no need for you to be so suspicious of me. The reason I understand you so well is simply because I have communicated with the Emperor before, and he has mentioned you several times in his letters.”

“In all the years I’ve known him, I’ve never seen him care so much for anyone.”

“It seems he holds you in high esteem as well.”

“Come to think of it, with the implementation of the Imperial Examination System, the nation is flourishing, and he may be so excited that he hasn’t slept well for several nights.”

Qin Feng had never expected all this to be mentioned in the Emperor’s letters.

Of course, being in the Imperial City, what he was doing couldn’t be hidden from the Emperor, and it was only natural that he knew so much.

What surprised Qin Feng even more was that the relationship between the Emperor and Prince Chu was so good. They even communicated by letter on ordinary days?

‘Perhaps it was because Prince Chu voluntarily withdrew from the competition for the throne back then, thus gaining the Emperor’s trust?’ Qin Feng speculated.

His guard eased slightly in his heart, but his body still remained beside his two wives.

The world was too cruel, and people’s hearts were too treacherous. It was impossible to trust someone just because of someone else’s words.

“Prince Chu, how could I be suspicious of you? It’s just following etiquette and keeping a respectful distance,” Qin Feng replied.

When Prince Chu saw this, he smiled ambiguously: “You are indeed tactful, no wonder you can win the hearts of beauties. “

“Having married the pride of the Great Qian, Liu Jianli, and the elusive Azure Dragon lineage, I wonder how many men in this world envy you. “

“If you were to marry a princess of the current dynasty, I’m afraid you would have no regrets in this life.”

With these words, Qin Feng felt a shiver run down his spine: “Prince Chu is joking. How could someone of my humble status be worthy of a princess?”

“Whether you are worthy or not is not for you to decide, but for the emperor.”

“Besides, as far as I know, the reason the imperial examination system has reached the Emperor’s ears is because of your relationship with Princess Anya.”

Liu Jianli and Cang Feilan looked at Qin Feng at the same time.

When did their husband have a relationship with the current princess?

This Prince Chu was blind to the situation. Sensing the murderous intent, Qin Feng immediately changed the subject: “The situation in the western regions is tense. The reason I came to see Prince Chu this time is to report on important matters.”

After listening to Qin Feng’s explanation, Prince Chu frowned, “Commander Fu Ruoyun from the Western Regions has already sent me a message. I was actually here in Mingqi City waiting for you.”

“I just didn’t expect the current situation to be more critical than I thought.”

The mountain of corpses passed by, and the demon Mao Yin from the Night of Divine Feast was in Qiongyu City. As for the legendary Netherworld, Prince Chu dared not think any further.

He turned to the side and asked, “Is there any news of those who went to the Imperial City for help?”

A follower shook his head, “No news yet.”

Prince Chu’s expression darkened: “The person sent to seek reinforcements is a peak Divine Martial Fourth Level. With his leg strength, it shouldn’t take so long. There is no news yet…“

“It seems that there are enemies blocking the crucial route from the western regions to the Imperial City.”

Qin Feng’s eyebrows furrowed. Does that mean there’s no hope for reinforcements?

Now that the corpses of the demons and ghosts must be ravaging the Western Regions, and with more and more deaths, Mao Yin will awaken sooner and sooner, the situation is becoming more and more urgent.

Prince Chu acted decisively, standing up and issuing a series of orders.

Firstly, he sent people to contact Commander Fu Ruoyun in the western regions; secondly, he divided Prince Chu’s troops into several groups to defend against these harmful demons and ghost corpses.

Finally, he gathered brave and skilled soldiers to set out for Qiongyu City.

After all, that’s where the root of all the trouble in the Western Regions lies!
