Valley of Buried Flowers

Huo Qingtong whistled, and a huge Red-headed Eagle flew over and landed at her feet.

The two boarded the flying vehicle. The Red-headed Eagle spread its wings, flapped them gently, and flew into the sky, quickly disappearing into the horizon.

Hua Qiang grabbed Huo Qingtong and gave her a passionate kiss that lasted for ten minutes.

Huo Qingtong gently punched Hua Qiang's chest with her hand. After their mouths separated, she took a few deep breaths before cursing, "You're going to die! I was almost suffocated by you!"

Hehe!

Hua Qiang chuckled twice, "I haven't seen you in so long, I've missed you, my husband!"

Hehehe!

Huo Qingtong said happily, "It seems like we haven't seen each other for more than two days."

Wow!

Hua Qiang feigned surprise and exclaimed, "My lady, don't you know that a day apart feels like three autumns?"

Two days is six years! We haven't seen each other for a full six years!

My wife is so heartless! She left me all alone there for six years, completely neglecting me. My wife, do you know how I survived those six years?

"Stop, stop, stop! You're really putting on an act now? Do you enjoy acting that much?"

I heard you've been going to the Slaughterhouse every day these past few days.

"You were slaughtering those beasts there, having a great time, it seems... like... you never thought of me!"

Looking at Huo Qingtong, who had a half-smile and a hint of resentment on her face, Hua Qiang pulled her into his arms again, and then...

As a man, if you try to reason with a woman, especially if that woman is your lover, then you've already lost!

Never try to change her perception with your words; just take action, even if she has a problem with you or is furious.

The arrogant woman was bribed with money until she softened and lost all her temper.

Another method is to conquer her with your body, completely conquering her from top to bottom, inside and out!

All conflicts vanished.

At this moment, Huo Qingtong's face was flushed, and she was panting heavily, but she said nothing more.

She had almost suffocated after just over ten minutes. She suspected the other person was doing it on purpose, but... she really liked it.

These past two days, she hadn't seen Hua Qiang, and she felt like she'd lost her soul. She couldn't wait even a minute longer after her parents went about their own business, so she ran to find Hua Qiang.

Now she has taken on two more missions, pulling him out of the mountain gate, and from then on, the world is vast, and she can roam freely.

She's going to enjoy some alone time with her boyfriend for the next few days. As for the mission, well, let's just leave it for now. We can do it later when we've had our fill of fun.

"Wife, where are we going now? What's the mission? And where is it located?"

Huo Qingtong rolled her eyes at him, then said shyly, "Let's find a city and get a room first!"

"Huh? Shall we go get a hotel room?"

Hua Qiang exclaimed in surprise, thinking to himself, "Is this woman in such a hurry?"

"What are you thinking? I mean... first find a place to stay, then adjust for a couple of days, um, get your mental state into the best possible condition so you can complete the mission better."

Huo Qingtong suppressed her inner embarrassment and forced herself to come up with a lame excuse to cover up her previous slip of the tongue.

As for whether the other person believes her or not? She doesn't care, she just needs to believe it herself!

"Okay, okay!"

Hua Qiang laughed, his expression serious, his eyes devoid of any impurities.

Huo Qingtong finally felt at ease, leaning against his chest, admiring the clouds and mist swirling around the mountains below, and looking at the clouds rolling and unfolding in the sky.

With a long cry, the Red-headed Eagle emitted a warning sound before descending towards a massive city below.

Huo Qingtong and Hua Qiang went to find an inn and booked a superior room.

After that, the two stayed there for two whole days, spending the rest of their time in the room discussing life, except when they went out to eat at certain times.

Huo Qingtong is very assertive and will not give up until she wins.

In her own words, she was the wife of the family, the big man, and Hua Qiang was the little wife, the son-in-law, who had to obey her.

However, reality dealt her a heavy blow, because... she discovered she couldn't beat Hua Qiang.

She was shocked to discover that Hua Qiang had already advanced to the Saint Realm Fourth Tier.

In just two or three days, he broke through two levels. Is this something a human can do?

She was born at the Saint Realm, began cultivating at the age of ten, and reached the Saint Realm Fifth Tier at the age of 10. She was hailed as a genius by her sect and was even bestowed the title of Saintess. She was the subject of many people's admonitions about other people's daughters.

The goals and aspirations of the tens of thousands of disciples in the sect.

Each promotion takes her anywhere from three months to two or three years.

Only the Saint Son Fu Disheng, can be considered comparable to him.

Now, she was once again shocked by Hua Qiang's power as Pioneer.

I secretly applaud myself for making such a wise choice!

She never knew how high Hua Qiang could go, so she, as his wife—no, she considered herself his husband—felt honored to share in his success.

The next moment, she felt a sense of urgency. She also needed to speed up her cultivation, or she would be left far behind by Hua Qiang and could only watch his back from behind.

The two spent two days in the inn in a daze. Hua Qiang tamed her completely and then took the two mission scrolls she had received to examine them.

The first quest scroll tells you to travel three thousand miles to the Valley of Buried Flowers, hunt down a fourth-tier Blackwater Crocodile, obtain its inner core, and then collect a kind of Heavenly Star Spirit Grass.

The second quest scroll leads to a Ruin City thousands of miles away, where a village has been massacred. The quest is to find the murderer Blood Shadow Demon Slayer, to avenge these people and rid the people of this scourge.

Having had her fill of fun, Huo Qingtong prepared to complete her mission.

The Red-headed Eagle was on duty again, and a few hours later, the two men and the eagle arrived at the mouth of a huge valley.

Stepping into the Valley of Buried Flowers is like entering Secret Realm beyond the mortal world.

The mountain walls on both sides resemble Primordial Giant Beast lying dormant, rising abruptly from the ground and reaching for the sky. The brown rocks are weathered and etched with the marks of time.

Occasionally, a tenacious pine tree can be seen leaning out from between the cracks, making people marvel at the tenacity of life.

A thin veil of mist hangs over the valley, and sunlight filters through, casting hazy shadows, like a dreamlike curtain.

Beneath your feet, a winding path is hidden among colorful fallen petals, piled up thickly like brocade, their rich, sweet fragrance blending with the fresh scent of the earth, each step feeling like walking on a poem of time.

A clear stream babbles by, and colorful stones are clearly visible at the bottom. As the water flows through the crevices of the stones, it plays a subtle melody.

In the distance, the waterfall roars like Milky Way cascading down, splashing water droplets like shattered jade, wetting the surrounding rose branches and making the already beautiful roses even more charming.

The wind whistles through the valley, causing the flower branches to sway and the petals to flutter like colorful butterflies, gently drifting down onto the stream, rocks, and grass, adorning the valley with a poignant yet magnificent splendor.

The two were so engrossed in the beautiful scenery before them that they were completely unaware that a pair of blood-red eyes were staring intently at them through the gaps in the thick petals.
