Such a Wife, What More Could a Husband Ask For?

Friends come and go, but only the drifting clouds remain unchanged.

However, Wu Chu didn't feel any sadness about the departure of these two.

Their departure caused the Little Qilin Di Kun to cry its heart out, instantly transforming it into a small, earth-yellow Little Qilin with a dragon's head and an ox's body, its body covered in armor. Large tears Rolling down its face, and its sobbing was heartbreaking, bringing tears to the eyes of all who heard it.

In contrast, Feng Yi remained calm... In truth, she was merely forcing herself to remain composed.

The tears welling up in her eyes had already betrayed her completely.

As Wu Chu pressed down on her little head, he said, "If you want to cry, then cry! You're still at an age where you can laugh and cry freely, why suppress your emotions!"

Wow...

Little Golden Phoenix, who always controlled her emotions very well, finally couldn't hold back anymore. She hugged Wu Chu's leg and cried her heart out, just like Di Kun.

Seeing this, the Little Qilin Di Kun stretched out its two small paws and grabbed Wu Chu's other leg. Its big head rubbed against Wu Chu's leg, and its tender Qilin Clan horns nuzzled against Wu Chu's leg. Tears and snot were wiped on Wu Chu's long robe.

Seeing him like this, Wu Chu almost kicked the Little Qilin away.

After they had cried for a while, Wu Chu said, "Alright, all of you, quiet down. Little Doudou, take them to play for a while, and come back early. I still need to arrange their homework tonight!"

"Yes, Master!"

After Little Yellow Dragon took the two little guys away, Wu Chu finally breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the Summit of the Sacred Tree to eat fried pork chops with Miss Houtu and the Houtu.

The young woman asked him, "How do you plan to teach them? Xiao Feng Yi and Xiao Di Kun are clearly more talented than Little Yellow Dragon. Should we continue their clan's cultivation methods, or should we have them switch to the Golden Core Dao and add the Nine-Turn Mysterious Technique?"

As Qingqiu Li twirled her teacup, she said, "Logically speaking, it would be most suitable for them to continue cultivating the cultivation methods of their respective clans. Little Doudou's aptitude is average, which is why he needs to cultivate the Golden Core Dao to make up for his lack of talent."

Wu Chu nodded and said, "What you two sisters say makes sense. However, Sister Qingqiu forgot about the <Nine-Turn Mysterious Technique>. This technique is a body-refining method that can strengthen their bloodline, thereby activating some supernatural abilities hidden within it. The Phoenix Clan and Qilin Clan have very powerful bloodlines, and the <Nine-Turn Mysterious Technique> would be like adding wings to a tiger for them to cultivate. Therefore, whether the Phoenix Clan and Qilin Clan have their own cultivation methods or not doesn't make a big difference."

Miss Houtu nodded as she took out two jade slips from her sleeve and said, "I've revised the <Nine-Turn Mysterious Technique> suitable for their cultivation over the years. After all, it wouldn't be fair to make them practice their clan's cultivation methods after you've separated them from their clan. The Golden Core Dao combined with the <Nine-Turn Mysterious Technique> is enough to make them stand out among their peers. Their future achievements will depend on their own destiny."

Wu Chu took the jade slip and smiled, "My sister understands me best!"

If there weren't other people around, he would have already pulled the young lady into a hug and kissed her passionately. With a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for!

Upon seeing this, Qingqiu Li couldn't help but sigh, feeling a bit sorry for herself. "Compared to Sister Houtu, I'm truly ashamed! Alas!"

"..."

Wu Chu decisively feigned ignorance and quietly changed the subject, asking, "What are those two little ones like? I feel like Xiao Feng Yi is a bit... a bit very strange."

Hearing this, Houtu laughed and said, "That Little Qilin is alright, it's all tiger-headed and looks a bit silly. It likes to transform back into its true form and run wild in the mountains and forests all the time. In comparison, that Little Golden Phoenix is much more interesting!"

Wu Chu asked curiously, "How so?"

Qingqiu Li chuckled, "That girl is always so serious, like a little adult. She's elegant, polite, and acts in a proper and orderly manner, never in a hurry, always poised and composed... Although it's all an act, neither Little Doudou nor Xiao A Kun can learn her calm and collected demeanor."

Miss Houtu laughed and said, "According to Feng Xi, her father, Jin Feng, was just like that. This girl is completely like her father. She was even cuter when she first came to Purple Jade Mountain!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Chu shook his head and laughed, "When the phoenix comes to pay homage, it will not perch on anything but the parasol tree. The Phoenix Clan's magnanimity and pride are ingrained in their very bones."

He paused for a moment, then added, "They won't perch on anything but the paulownia tree... It seems we'll have to move Xiao Feng Yi to that paulownia tree to cultivate. Tsk, what a coincidence!"

If it weren't for the fact that he had taken Little Yellow Dragon as his disciple first, which was why the Phoenix Clan had considered sending Feng Yi over; if it weren't for the fact that Qingluan had given him the withered Fire Parasol Tree as a material for refining treasures, and that he had used his Merit to make it take root and sprout in order to cultivate a Fire Parasol Tree Spirit Root; Wu Chu would really suspect that this whole thing was a scheme set up by the Phoenix Clan.

However, it's clear that apart from the somewhat coercive aspect of accepting apprentices, everything else was a choice he made voluntarily.

So, all I can say is that it was a coincidence!

"What's wrong?"

Both older sisters were somewhat confused.

Wu Chu used Divine Sense to convey his conjecture to them.

Qingqiu Li shook her head and said, "This shouldn't be their scheme! Compared to the Phoenix Clan's precious Fire Parasol Tree, your Fire Paulownia Tree is far inferior. Even if there is a scheme, it wouldn't be about this; it's about how to prevent you from being completely won over by the other two clans."

While his three young apprentices were away, Wu Chu ate and drank while enjoying a song and dance performance that he hadn't seen in tens of thousands of years, feeling quite pleased with himself.

By evening, the three little ones still hadn't returned. Wu Chu used the Mountain Protection Array to check and discovered that the three little ones were roasting meat in a valley!

A poor Dang Kang lay motionless beside them.

Seeing this, Wu Chu silently shook his head, regained his composure, and thought to himself how to teach them a lesson later, so they would know that they would suffer the consequences of disobeying their master!

In the valley, the Little Qilin raised its head and asked the Little Yellow Dragon, "Senior brother, why don't we go back and ask Little Jasmine and the others to help us make roasted meat? If we roast it ourselves..."

Little Golden Phoenix thought the same way. Why should they do it themselves when there would be someone to prepare delicious food for them when they got back?

Little Yellow Dragon reached out and tapped Little Qilin on the head, shaking his head and saying, "You guys don't understand! Master always says, 'Self-reliance leads to abundance.' We can't always rely on others; we should learn to take care of ourselves. If we go on a journey in the future, who will do things for us? Today, I'll show you a trick. I've been learning from Sister Yueling for a long time! This is called working hard silently, quietly excelling, and then amazing everyone!"
