Chapter 712: Chapter 789 Invasion by External Enemies
“Ah, I dare not defy my wife’s command!”
Chen Nan sighed and said, took the Ten-thousand-year-old Ginseng, bit off several pieces to chew and swallow, and then circulated his Inner Strength to refine it for healing his wounds.
When Gongsun Yudie heard the phrase ‘I dare not defy my wife’s command,’ her heart fluttered.
She turned back and glared at Chen Nan, “What nonsense are you spouting? Just focus on healing your injuries. Otherwise, if you deviate from the correct Qi Movent, don’t bla .”
Chen Nan opened his eyes and smiled, “Who’s talking nonsense? You’re the mother of my child.”
“You!”
Gongsun Yudie was rendered speechless, stomped her foot in frustration, and turned around, “I can’t be bothered with you anymore, I’m done talking.”
“Whether you care or not, our child is right there; whether you speak or not, our child is still there. This is an ironclad fact, and it won’t change just because you ignore ,” Chen Nan said while multitasking between speaking and healing.
Gongsun Yudie was at a loss for words for quite so ti before finally saying, “Would you please concentrate on healing? If you ss up your Qi Movent, you’re going to die.”
“Even if I die, I’ll have you to collect my corpse, so what’s there to fear?”
“…”
Gongsun Yudie was completely speechless.
Without saying a word, she simply turned around to stay silent, afraid that if she continued, she would truly break down.
Wang Hou alongside also felt speechless.
On his way here, he felt that Chen Nan spoke quite earnestly, but to his surprise, as soon as Chen Nan t Gongsun Yudie, he imdiately beca slick and smooth-talking. Could it be that his senior sister likes this about him?
The night passed without words.
The next morning, a ray of dawn shone through the cracks of the cave entrance, illuminating the interior.
Chen Nan opened his eyes, his injuries were almost completely healed. He fetched so water to wash the blood off his body and, taking out a piece of clothing from his storage ring, changed into it. By then, Gongsun Yudie had already prepared breakfast and was waiting for him to eat.
“Oh my, what a virtuous wife and good mother!”
Chen Nan sighed and walked over, sitting down beside Gongsun Yudie with a beaming smile and nonchalantly laying his hand on her shoulder, “With a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for!”
“Your sister!”
Gongsun Yudie couldn’t help but blurt out a curse, “Are you asking to be scolded? Can’t even a al shut you up?”
“I ate so much ginseng last night, I’m not hungry at all, so naturally, nothing can shut up, unless…” Chen Nan said with a mischievous smile as he looked at her.
Seeing Chen Nan’s smile, Gongsun Yudie felt a chill on her back, “Un…unless what?”
“Try using your mouth to shut up, maybe it’ll work!”
Gongsun Yudie scratched her head, “Really?”
“Really.”
Chen Nan kept nodding in affirmation.
Gongsun Yudie leaned in, the distance between them getting closer and closer, while Wang Hou kept coughing dryly on the side. But as if she hadn’t heard him, Gongsun Yudie kept moving closer to Chen Nan.
“Can you not treat as if I’m just air?” Wang Hou couldn’t help but grumble.
Gongsun Yudie still ignored him, moving until she was about five centiters away from Chen Nan’s face, then suddenly reached out and pinched Chen Nan’s cheek, glaring at him, “You wretched rogue, caught in the act now, aren’t you? Still dare to talk nonsense? Will you eat quietly now?”
Chen Nan’s face was twisted from the pinch as he protested, “There’s soone else watching, you know. Is it really okay for you to be murdering your husband like this?”
Wang Hou imdiately turned his head, “I didn’t see anything.”
Gongsun Yudie nodded in approval at Wang Hou’s response and stared at Chen Nan, “Still talking nonsense?”
“Not anymore, please spare , my dear wife.”
Gongsun Yudie smiled triumphantly and then let go, but upon reflection, she felt sothing was amiss and glared, “You jerk, who’s your wife?”
Chen Nan didn’t reply and instead let his gaze drift toward her abdon.
Gongsun Yudie rolled her eyes, speechless. With things as they were, even having a child already, she couldn’t deny her affair with Chen Nan, although the child was an accident, and they truly hadn’t had an affair…
After breakfast,
Chen Nan was chatting with Gongsun Yudie, intending to ask if she was willing to leave with him, but at that mont, a noise of fighting suddenly ca from outside.
“What’s going on?”
Chen Nan looked at Gongsun Yudie, puzzled.
Gongsun Yudie also shook her head in confusion, “I don’t know either.”
Logically, if soone from the Sect wanted to kill Chen Nan, there should be no noise of fighting outside.
“Let’s go and take a look.”
Chen Nan pulled her and was about to head outside when Gongsun Yudie quickly stood still, “No, don’t go out, I’ll just take a look.”
“It’s fine, my injuries have almost healed; they can’t do anything to ,” Chen Nan said smilingly and continued to walk outside, with Wang Hou following behind them.
Unexpectedly, when they ca out of the Stone Cave, there was actually no one keeping watch outside.
“Where is everyone?”
Gongsun Yudie scanned the surroundings and mumbled to herself.
Wang Hou scratched his head, saying, “Could it be that Master and the others have co around and decided not to make things difficult for us?”
“Impossible!”
Gongsun Yudie shook her head, hearing the sounds of fight coming from the direction of the main hall, she frowned and said, “I fear that an external enemy has invaded, so they’ve all gone to support the front mountain.”
Wang Hou’s face turned pale instantly, “If that’s the case, then what do we do? Master and the others were severely injured last night and surely haven’t recovered yet.”
“Let’s go and take a look first.”
Gongsun Yudie looked at Chen Nan and said, “Now that there’s nobody here, you should take the opportunity to get away.”
Chen Nan shook his head, “Not unless you leave with .”
“I belong to the Sky Sword Sect; now that the Sky Sword Sect is in trouble, I will absolutely not leave.”
Chen Nan grabbed her hand directly and headed toward the front mountain, saying, “In that case, I’m not comfortable leaving you here. Let’s go, I’ll co with you to take a look.”
“But you…”
“No ‘buts’. Let’s go.”
When the three of them arrived at the front mountain, looking down from a high vantage point, they saw figures moving quickly, a group of people dressed in white were engaged in a fierce battle with the Sky Sword Sect Disciples, advancing up the mountain.
Gongsun Yudie furrowed her brows, “It’s the people from the Desire Palace.”
“These bastards, what perfect timing they’ve chosen,” Wang Hou drew his long sword.
Gongsun Yudie’s gaze deepened, saying, “I’m afraid there’s a traitor within our Sect, who inford the Desire Palace about Master and the others being severely injured last night, which is why they attacked early this morning.”
Although Chen Nan wasn’t a mber of these two Sects, he also knew that there had been animosity between the Desire Palace and the Sky Sword Sect for more than a day.
“I’m going to kill them!”
Wang Hou grasped his long sword tightly, striding vigorously down the mountain.
Gongsun Yudie clenched the hilt of her sword, looking at Chen Nan she said, “Can you…”
She hesitated halfway through her sentence.
Her eyes lingered on Chen Nan, caught in a dilemma, but then Chen Nan continued, “You want to help the Sky Sword Sect?”
Gongsun Yudie nodded toward the mountain below, “The Desire Palace has mobilized a lot of experts this ti, and our Masters are old. They were so heavily injured last night, they surely won’t recover as quickly as you, it would take at least ten days or half a month to fully recover; now, only you have the strength to save our Sky Sword Sect.”
Seeing Chen Nan silent, Gongsun Yudie choked up, “The Sky Sword Sect is my ho, I grew up here from childhood, I can’t just watch my ho face complete destruction”
“Alright, I promise you.”
Chen Nan looked toward the main hall and said, “But first, I need to talk to your Master. Wait for here for a while; I’ll be right back.”
