Getting a Wife Is So Good

Chen Xian rubbed his forehead and opened his eyes.

He saw a thick mist of blood qi floating before him, undisturbed by the wind.

His gaze was a little vacant.

He clearly remembered that in order to sign a big client and gather the 380,000 yuan betrothal gift, he had forced himself to down a bottle of baijiu at a banquet.

In the end, the deal was signed, and he was completely drunk.

But before his eyes...

Chen Xian felt as if his bones were about to fall apart. Soon, memories that did not belong to him flooded his mind...

Great Ning Dynasty... Demon-Slaying Pass... cook... cleaning up the battlefield...

Chen Xian was completely stunned!

He had actually transmigrated!

What was even more outrageous was that this was a world where demons and monsters ran rampant, and human lives were as cheap as grass.

Chen Xian couldn't help but feel speechless!

In his previous life, he lived worse than a pig or dog for the sake of a house, a car, getting married, and keeping up with relatives.

He never expected that even after transmigrating, he would still be struggling.

Recognizing the reality and knowing he couldn't go back.

Chen Xian sighed sadly in his heart.

"Crunch, crunch..."

As he was thinking, he suddenly heard chewing sounds by his ears, like a dog gnawing on a bone.

Chen Xian subconsciously looked up.

He saw a black and gray furry creature covered in blood, with a sturdy back, squatting on the ground with its back to him, gnawing on a thigh.

And around him lay a pile of corpses, some human, some demonic beasts... were they wolf demons?

When he clearly saw the ferocious head of the demonic beast corpse, In an instant.

Chen Xian's scalp went numb, and his pupils shrank to the size of beans.

"Mmph!"

Just as he was about to cry out, a bloody hand covered his mouth.

Chen Xian was stunned!

He turned his head and saw that there was still one person alive beside him, lying on the ground and repeatedly signaling to him.

Meaning, he should not make a sound and pretend to be dead!

Chen Xian understood immediately and lay still, closing his eyes.

As if hearing movement behind him, the wolf demon gnawing on the thigh looked back, its pair of scarlet eyes flashing with confusion.

It slowly stood up, its thick tail flicked, and its slightly open mouth dripped with viscous saliva mixed with blood from its sharp teeth.

It looked around, and apart from the wind, there was no other sound.

The wolf demon hesitated for a moment before continuing to squat down to enjoy its dinner.

Chen Xian listened to the grating chewing sound, and a million thoughts raced through his mind.

This was truly a hellish start!

After careful recollection, he finally understood the situation.

The original owner was a small cook under the Ninth Camp of the Ninth Demon-Slaying Army, stationed near Demon-Slaying Pass.

Cooks generally did not go to the battlefield; their main responsibility was cooking, and they would also help clean up the battlefield when manpower was insufficient.

The Ninth Camp was near Mount Wumeng.

Today, demons and monsters attacked the Ninth Camp, and the entire army was on high alert.

The cooks were responsible for cleaning up the battlefield and transporting the wolf demon corpses back to be used as food.

Therefore, the cook squad leader, Ding Chen, led everyone to Mount Wumeng to transport the wolf demon corpses.

Unexpectedly, one wolf demon was not completely dead and pounced from the ground.

The thirteen cooks were completely caught off guard and had no ability to resist. They were killed by the injured wolf demon in a short period.

The original owner was the first to be killed.

The one who covered his mouth just now was the cook squad leader, Ding Chen.

After understanding, Chen Xian cried bitterly in his heart, only hoping that the wolf demon would eat quickly. Once it was full, it wouldn't be able to eat him.

As he was thinking, a line of light blue text appeared before his eyes:

[Experience: None]

[Martial Arts: The Ox Demon Body Refinement Technique (Entry-Level), Demon-Slaying Blade Technique (Minor Accomplishment), Great Tablet Smashing Hand (Entry-Level)]

[Realm: Body Refinement Entry-Level]

According to his memories, the three martial arts were issued by the imperial court when he joined the army. Initially, the original host hadn't come to Demon-Slaying Pass but had spent three years training in a county town's military camp. After achieving some success, he was then dispatched to Demon-Slaying Pass.

He had originally intended to achieve merit and return home to marry a wife.

As a result, his strength was too weak, and he was assigned to the cookhouse, becoming a lowly cook.

"The imperial court issues wives?"

Chen Xian was a little taken aback. According to the original host's memories, the Emperor of Great Ning had issued a decree: if this battle was won, wives would be given to single men in the Demon-Slaying Army based on their merits.

The more military achievements, the more wives one would receive.

He could even marry the most beautiful princess in the court.

Of course, there were more rewards besides wives.

There was such a good thing?

Chen Xian felt happy, and the slight gloom and fear in his heart dissipated.

Although it was a motivational tactic by the Emperor to make the Demon-Slaying Army fight the demons with all their might, a ruler's word was his bond.

Otherwise, who would be willing to risk their lives for the emperor in the future?

For an old man who had been single for thirty years in his previous life and had never tasted meat, he suddenly had the desire to survive.

What was that saying about having no women in your heart, and your blade naturally becoming divine?

Having women gave him the motivation to practice his blade!

I want women!

So I can't die here!

Chen Xian felt a slight surge of excitement and couldn't help but lower his gaze.

[Sacrifice the souls of the wicked to gain experience points, which can be used to deduce and improve martial arts.]

[You can also sacrifice your own lifespan to improve martial arts.]

[Your current lifespan is seventy years.]

To deduce and improve martial arts using his own lifespan? Was he crazy?

Chen Xian immediately dismissed the thought. He had seventy years left to live; wouldn't it be more comfortable to have women by his side?

"Crunch, crunch..."

The ear-piercing chewing sounds jolted Chen Xian back to reality.

What women, what having women by his side? First, he had to stay alive!

If the Wolf Demon didn't leave, he would be done for tonight.

No matter how much lifespan he had left, it would be useless.

As he thought this, Chen Xian became nervous.

He squinted his eyes and saw the Wolf Demon standing up, eating a bloody arm while dragging a corpse.

They were the corpses of the fallen cooks.

They were neatly arranged one by one.

"...!!"

Chen Xian was stunned!

It couldn't finish them all and wanted to pack them up to take away?!

He opened one eye and looked at Ding Chen, the head cook next to him, and was taken aback.

He had been half a meter away from him just now, but now he was three meters away after closing his eyes for a moment?

Was this guy slowly moving?

Chen Xian immediately understood.

The distance the head cook had moved was not even a single step for the Wolf Demon.

It seemed he couldn't count on the head cook to save his life; he had to rely on himself.

But with his current Body Refinement Entry-Level, this meager strength made it impossible to kill the Wolf Demon in front of him!

Sacrifice his own lifespan?

The moment the thought arose, Chen Xian felt a pang of heartache.

When he noticed the Wolf Demon walking towards him, Chen Xian's heart filled with tension and anxiety.

The three martial arts:

The Ox Demon Body Refinement Technique was a cultivation method.

Demon-Slaying Blade Technique and Great Tablet Smashing Hand were combat skills.

Chen Xian thought for a moment, then cried out in his heart with a pang of pain, "The Ox Demon Body Refinement Technique, sacrifice one year!"

[You have sacrificed one year of lifespan to upgrade The Ox Demon Body Refinement Technique to Body Refinement Entry-Level]

"???"

Chen Xian froze. He was already at Body Refinement Entry-Level. He sacrificed a year of lifespan to upgrade a martial art, and it was still Body Refinement Entry-Level?

Just then, he noticed a change in himself. His body felt warm, and he seemed to have gained a little strength.

That's it?

Hiss!

Hearing the Wolf Demon's heavy breathing drawing closer, Chen Xian felt a sense of urgency.

"Quick! Body Refinement Technique, ten years!"

[You have sacrificed ten years of lifespan to upgrade The Ox Demon Body Refinement Technique to Body Refinement Minor Accomplishment]

"Only Minor Accomplishment?"

Chen Xian was speechless, and his body immediately underwent another change.

"Still not enough, Body Refinement Technique, sacrifice another ten years!"

[You have sacrificed ten years of lifespan to upgrade The Ox Demon Body Refinement Technique to Body Refinement Approaching Great Accomplishment]

"...!!"

Chen Xian couldn't help but stare blankly, cursing inwardly:

How much of a noob am I? Twenty years and I haven't even reached Great Accomplishment in body refinement. Still thinking about women?

"Truly useless... Body Refinement Technique, sacrifice thirty years for me!"
