People of the Divine Land Really Know How to Play

"Husband, are you really going? It's really dangerous there."

It was already late, and whether we went or not was a matter for tomorrow. Taking her Husband back to her parents' home, she couldn't just leave in such a hurry without staying overnight.

Yu Shang and Qin Yi strolled along the pool at the foot of the cliff, enjoying the rare romance carried on the night sea breeze. However, Yu Shang was not in the mood for the experience and was worriedly planning to dissuade Qin Yi.

"I'm going." Qin Yi smiled. "You want that phoenix feather too, right? It should have extraordinary significance for your Winged Human Race; maybe it can even nurture a Formless Being?"

"It's hard to say, after all, we haven't tried it." Yu Shang lowered her head and walked slowly, kicking a small stone by the pool. "Anyway, whether it's useful in terms of practical value or not, it's still a phoenix feather in a meaningful sense, which is very important to our clan."

"Hmm... I understand your sense of ritual."

"My Husband..."

"Um?"

"Why do you always try to understand others?" Yu Shang said softly, "Even when I was very unreasonable to you before, you didn't get angry."

"Who said I wasn't angry? I was angry when you tried to kill me in the first place, that's why I tied you up." Qin Yi laughed. "Besides that, nothing else is a big deal. As a person, you should be open-minded. Being too calculating is tiring."

Yu Feiling was sitting cross-legged in the distance, silently opened her eyes.

She originally wanted to hear if her son-in-law behaved differently in front of her daughter, because Qin Yi had been too perfect in front of her... and her daughter was too naive to judge people. If this guy had a different way of doing things, he probably wouldn't have hidden it so well in front of her. She could look for clues.

Unexpectedly, I overheard these sweet nothings... Why do these couple's sweet nothings sound so strange? They sound so affectionate, but the content involves killing and binding, and they even want to bind her again!

What kind of married life do you two usually lead?

Qin Yi's reply was even more shocking, "I knew you actually liked that."

Yu Shang blushed and chuckled, even giving a rather expectant "hmm".

Yu Feiling: "..."

Fortunately, the son-in-law seemed more sensible than his daughter, and didn't dwell on this trivial matter. He quickly got back to the main point. "No matter how you look at it, we definitely have to go to Phoenix Feather Cave. Of course, we can't be reckless. If we're going, we must first find out the details, such as what level of strength is required to go?"

Back when he first met Cheng Cheng, he went to the Frost Cave and acted like a complete idiot, almost getting himself killed there. Cheng Cheng, however, admired him for it – beauty is in the eye of the beholder, after all. Times have changed, and Qin Yi is no longer so reckless.

Yu Shang said, "A long time ago, I asked the Dragon Son to go in and take a look. He said that the remnants of the dragon and phoenix battle inside were strong, and going in was like entering a trial cave. Even for those at the Shining Sun Completion realm, it would be very dangerous to go in. It would be safer for those at the Qianyuan realm to go in."

"If I have the strength to Shining Sun Completion, then I can give it a try?" Qin Yi thought for a moment, "Then I should be able to give it a try too."

Yu Shang hesitated and looked at Qin Yi. She knew that her Husband had inexplicably jumped from the third to the fifth level of Huiyang after leaving seclusion this time, most likely due to the effects of the medicine made from the Xun Wood Heart. However, taking medicine meant instability, and it was hard to say whether he could actually exert the strength of the fifth level of Huiyang, let alone the peak level...

However, this Husband's combat strength is quite peculiar. Originally, he was already able to fight on par with me at the late stage of the Huiyang realm when he was at the third level of the Huiyang realm. Now, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he's almost at the peak of the Huiyang realm... Moreover, he also has a pair of strange Black and White Balls...

Unsure of her Husband's strength, Yu Shang still advised, "But that place belongs to the sea monsters. The sea monsters and we have always been at odds, and we even fought over control of that area before... But ultimately, the location was too far from us, and later, with the Dragon Son's mediation, it ended up in their hands. Anyway, they can't get in. So no matter what happens inside the cave, the sea monsters' territory outside is already a danger zone."

Qin Yi pondered, "That thing works on sea monsters too? Why are they fighting over it?"

"It's useless to them, but the sea area is theirs, so of course they won't give it up."

"So, the secret cave itself is meaningless to them, and they might not guard it closely? Could we try sneaking in?"

Yu Feiling nodded to herself. Qin Yi's thinking was very clear; he was indeed a smart person.

This also proves that he was indeed seriously considering going to the secret cave, and was not just going through the motions.

Yu Shang was saying, "Because we were certain that no one could enter the secret cave without dragon blood, we didn't try to sneak in, even though we knew it would be pointless. Since no one has ever sneaked in, they probably aren't so bored as to guard that place every day after all these years. But... that area is very dangerous. Even if my Husband managed to sneak in, what if he made a commotion and got caught, and then couldn't get out?"

Yu Feiling laughed. Her daughter was thinking more thoroughly than before when it came to her husband's safety. Not bad, not bad. She had grown up noticeably.

Qin Yi laughed and said, "If I really succeed, your army will come to my aid. Are you afraid of a fight?"

Yu Shang paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Yes."

Qin Yi shrugged. "So what can't I go?"

Yu Shang said helplessly, "Husband, how did you sneak in?"

Qin Yi blinked and then suddenly disappeared.

Yu Shang was extremely surprised. She knew that Qin Yi had used invisibility magic in front of her, but she really couldn't find any trace of Qin Yi.

"This..." Yu Shang exclaimed in surprise, "What kind of Movement Method is this? It's so amazing!"

Qin Yi's voice came through the air. "How about it? Can you give it a try?"

Before Yu Shang could answer, her mother's voice suddenly rang in her ears. "Not enough."

Yu Shang was speechless. It turned out her mother had been eavesdropping all along... But then she heard her mother continue to transmit her voice, "His Technique Method is indeed of a very high level, enough to the Deceive the Heavens and Cross the Sea. The problem is that the place is underwater. Once he enters the water, it's impossible to leave no trace. We must use other methods to cover it up... Tomorrow, go to the Clam Girl and exchange it for a Sea Mirage Pearl. With the help of this item, combined with his miraculous Technique Method, he should be able to enter the water without leaving a trace."

Yu Shang felt relieved and smiled, "We'll prepare some things tomorrow, that should be enough."

Qin Yi was unaware that she had overheard the telepathic message and felt that things were basically settled, so he breathed a sigh of relief and stopped bringing up the topic. "The moon is bright and the stars are few, the night is gentle, we strolled along the mountain spring on the island, yet we kept talking about these things."

Yu Shang, lacking any romantic flair, asked as if completing a task, "What does my Husband wish to do?"

Qin Yi pointed to the pool and asked, "Is this the Mother-Daughter Spring Water?"

"No, this is not the Mother and Daughter Spring. The Mother-Daughter Spring Water is very special, drawn from behind the temple, beside the sacred tree. This is just an ordinary spiritual spring, but it does have some cleansing and marrow-refining effects. I used to bathe here often when I was a child."

The thought of Yu Shang bathing under the moonlight seemed incredibly alluring. Qin Yi's heart fluttered slightly, and he grinned as he pulled her close, saying, "Well... after a long day, how about a bath?"

"Huh?" Yu Shang was stunned. Qin Yi didn't know someone was eavesdropping. Seeing that the place was empty and no one was around, he thought he could... But she had just received a telepathic message!

"Husband, my Husband, please don't..."

Qin Yi noticed that Yu Shang in his arms was struggling. He was puzzled. This girl had been very obedient these days. She had been very obedient these days. Even on such an inappropriate place on the airship, he had given in to her wishes. Why was she being so fussy now?

Oh right, I just remembered what I said before, could this girl be deliberately trying to cooperate this time?

Thinking of this, he became even more amused and laughed, "Young lady, no one will come to save you even if you scream your lungs out..."

As he spoke, he picked up Yu Shang and they both jumped into the pool.

"Eh eh eh..." Yu Shang fell into the water with a bewildered look on her face and was quickly tied up tightly with Buddhist beads.

"..." Yu Feiling shut herself up in the temple.

I thought I'd found a good son-in-law, but why does my daughter look like she was forcibly taken away?... Is this how people in China play the game?

Inside the ring, Liusu and Gouzi, who had just been communicating telepathically, both grinned, their smiles seemingly frozen in time.
