An Assist from a Married Woman

The new students from the other areas were practically green with envy when they saw Mu Ling, the charming instructor.

"Come on, I'll take you to the residential area assigned to you."

With a wave of her slender hand, Mu Ling swayed as she flew down toward the lower reaches of Northern Cang Spirit Academy.

"Wives, let's go too."

Lin Suchou held Luo Li and Wen Qingxuan's delicate hands.

Luo Li shot him an embarrassed glare, while Wen Qingxuan naturally wrapped herself around Lin Suchou's arm.

Looking at the two girls, Lin Suchou could not help letting out a sinister cackle inwardly.

Now, his shameless cohabitation life had begun!

The vast crowd of several thousand followed Mu Ling down from the stone platform as one cultivation hall after another rapidly swept past beneath their feet.

After flying west for around ten minutes, Mu Ling finally slowed to a stop. She pointed down at a large area below with a slender finger and smiled. "This will be your residential area."

Lin Suchou looked over and saw pavilions scattered like stars among the greenery, with lakes dotted throughout.

"Mm, not bad. Trees, water, and two great beauties."

After looking around, Lin Suchou nodded in approval.

"Hehe, be careful, or Luo Li and I will live in one pavilion while you live in another."

Wen Qingxuan smiled sweetly, but her words were full of threat.

"Then do you have enough Spirit Value?"

Lin Suchou looked at her and smiled as well.

"Spirit Value?"

Wen Qingxuan was deeply puzzled. "The houses down there require Spirit Value too?"

"What else would they require?"

Lin Suchou nodded. In order to encourage students to spend, the Spirit Academy naturally had to come up with some methods.

"Hehe, of course. Although the new student residential area is covered by a Fourth-Grade Spirit Gathering Array, it is divided into Grade A, Grade B, and Grade C.

"You've only been assigned Grade C, which is considered the edge of the Spirit Gathering Array. The spiritual energy here is quite good, but it still falls short of the Grade A and Grade B areas."

Mu Ling pointed toward the depths of the area, where the air seemed somewhat thicker. "That is the center of this Spirit Gathering Array. Naturally, the spiritual energy there is much more abundant than in the outer areas."

"Can we live there?"

Some of the new students were practically drooling with desire.

"Of course! But there are fees for the rooms there. A Grade A room costs two thousand Spirit Value a month, while a Grade B room costs one thousand Spirit Value a month."

Other than Lin Suchou, all the other new students were utterly shocked by this.

"Little ones, Spirit Value is extremely important. This is one way to motivate cultivation. Our Spirit Academy has more than sixty Fifth-Grade Spirit Gathering Arrays, twenty Sixth-Grade Spirit Gathering Arrays, ten Seventh-Grade Spirit Gathering Arrays, and only one Eighth-Grade Spirit Gathering Array."

After introducing the number of Spirit Gathering Arrays, Mu Ling continued explaining the costs with a smile. "Other than the Fourth-Grade Spirit Gathering Array, all the others charge by the day. A Seventh-Grade Spirit Gathering Array costs five thousand Spirit Value per day."

"I'm done for."

For a moment, everyone was speechless. At last, they understood the purpose of the Spirit Value Cards Elder Bai had given them.

"Ah? But at home, I always started with Seventh-Grade Spirit Gathering Arrays."

Wen Qingxuan pursed her red lips, then took out her Spirit Value Card and looked down at it. Her expression turned even uglier.

Lin Suchou leaned closer and saw that it contained three thousand Spirit Value.

"It's fine, use mine for now."

After seeing Wen Qingxuan's Spirit Value Card, Luo Li took out her own.

It displayed five thousand Spirit Value.

"Sigh, if I'd known, I would've raised my mark a little higher in the Northern Cang Realm earlier. I also would've picked opponents with higher cultivation."

Wen Qingxuan sighed, but then she seemed to think of something and looked at Lin Suchou with ill intent.

"What are you planning?"

A bad feeling rose in Lin Suchou's heart.

"Since you entered without an exam, you must have a lot of Spirit Value, right?"

Wen Qingxuan hugged one of his arms, pressing her chest against Lin Suchou as she said, "Since Luo Li and I are your girlfriends, your Spirit Value should be ours to spend too, right?"

"That's fine, but from now on, we'll have to live in the same room."

Breathing in the rose fragrance of her hair, Lin Suchou set his condition.

"That's only natural. After all, we'll have to sleep under the same blanket in the future."

After saying that with a smile, Wen Qingxuan glanced at Luo Li.

Luo Li's pretty face flushed red at those words.

Lin Suchou pulled her into his arms as well, then flipped his right hand. A Jade Token appeared out of thin air.

Lin Suchou fixed his eyes on it, and his eyes widened slightly.

One hundred thousand Spirit Value!?

It was not in the millions, but it was still several times more than Luo Li and Wen Qingxuan's Spirit Value combined. It seemed Dean Taicang cared quite a bit about him after all.

Wen Qingxuan and Luo Li were also stunned by that number.

"Husband, you'll have to take good care of us sisters from now on."

Wen Qingxuan put on a pitiful expression that made one's heart ache.

Lin Suchou's eyes shifted as he leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Remember to leave the door open for me tonight..."

Upon hearing that, Wen Qingxuan shot him a fierce glare. Then she pulled away from him and huffed, "No, my mother said I can only... after we get married..."

Even with Wen Qingxuan's boldness, she could not finish the sentence.

Her pretty face was crimson as she glared viciously at Lin Suchou, as if she wanted to bite a chunk of flesh off him.

"That works too. It's just a pity that Luo Li and I will be staying in a Grade A room, so you'll be left out."

Lin Suchou even sighed after saying that, looking deeply regretful.

"You..."

Seeing that she could not outtalk Lin Suchou, Wen Qingxuan sought help from Luo Li beside her. "Luo Li, look at him! He's already like this now. Who knows what he'll turn into in the future? We have to keep him under control!"

"Stop fooling around, you two. Let's keep listening."

Luo Li looked helplessly at the bickering pair.

Logically speaking, after reuniting following such a long separation, shouldn't they be all affectionate and loving?

How were they bickering every moment instead?

"Don't lose heart, everyone. There are many ways to earn Spirit Value. The Thunder Domain charges five hundred Spirit Value for admission, and you can enter to condense Heavenly Thunder Beads. You can sell them at the Spirit Value Hall for two hundred Spirit Value each.

"You can also receive varying amounts of Spirit Value when your cultivation improves."

Mu Ling looked at the gloomy crowd and pointed her fair, slender finger toward the distant sky.

The sky there was darker, and Thunder could vaguely be seen flickering within it.

"All right, everyone, start choosing your rooms. If anyone wants to go to the Grade A or Grade B areas, remember to tell me."

Looking at the bitter-faced new students, Mu Ling could not help covering her mouth and laughing charmingly.

"Instructor Mu Ling, I'd like a Grade A pavilion."

Lin Suchou was the first to speak.

"Student, although the Grade A and Grade B areas both have separate pavilions... each pavilion can accommodate at most two people."

Mu Ling smiled as her gaze moved between Lin Suchou, Luo Li, and Wen Qingxuan, her eyes carrying a meaningful look.

"It's fine. As long as there are two beds."

Lin Suchou replied with a smile.

Days one, three, and five with Luo Li; days two, four, and six with Wen Qingxuan. The remaining day would conveniently be cooldown.

Lin Suchou had arranged his schedule perfectly.

After hearing that, Wen Qingxuan and Luo Li both turned their heads aside, pretending they had nothing to do with him.

However, Lin Suchou's skin was thicker than a city wall. Mu Ling gave him a meaningful look, and he returned it with an "appreciative" gaze.

"Student, if there's anything you don't understand in the future, feel free to come ask me. Your teacher is free at night too~"

The moment Mu Ling said that, she was met with hostile stares from Luo Li and Wen Qingxuan.

Then the two of them tightly clung to Lin Suchou, making his thoughts wander. He gave Mu Ling a grateful look.

This married instructor was quite the skilled wingwoman.

Next, Mu Chen also chose two rooms in the Grade B area.

A girl named Ye Qingling also chose a Grade B room. The little girl with twin ponytails beside her caught Lin Suchou's attention.

If he was not mistaken, she should be Sun'er.

However, Lin Suchou only watched for a moment before shifting his gaze away.

Wen Qingxuan and Luo Li were staring at him with murderous looks. The pressure was enormous...
