Supreme Emperor of Mist

"Rest while I'm providing treatment on you." Qin Lan lightly flicked on Hu Jia's forehead as he continues to apply additional acupuncture needles all over her body.

"Ouch... I'm crying... You flicked my head..." Hu Jia jokes. From the way she was behaving, it was as if she was not bothered by the fact she had lost all her cultivation base. Of course, Qin Lan was not blind. Even if he did, the sadness hidden behind her tone could tell him how much it affected her.

"Don't worry about everything. With me here by your side, your life won't be ordinary. Even if you wanted to, it is impossible." Qin Lan said. His fingers gently turn the acupuncture needle the moment it entered her blood vessels.

"Ah... It's itchy..." Hu Jia moaned.

"That means the blood flow in that particular acupoint is working better than before." Qin Lan smiled. Although his face still carries a hint of worry on the outside, it was considered much better than before.

"So, had you think about what I said earlier?" Hu Jia asked. Her question made Lu Qing Yun pay attention to their conversation as she was somewhat interested in this topic too.

"What you just said? I am too busy rescuing both of you to have forgotten about what we've talked about earlier." Qin Lan tried to escape from answering the sensitive question brought up by Hu Jia.

Wondering where did her energy come from, Hu Jia insisted.

"You're running away from answering my question! That's an act of a coward. Why are you trying to do that while I'm here giving you consent? Don't you want to have two wives?" Hu Jia's sentence was the dream of all married men.

Perhaps in this world, there won't be a man who wasn't attracted to what she was offering to Qin Lan right now. Even Lu Qing Yun had a slight blush on her face as she dreams about getting chosen by Qin Lan to become one of his concubines.

"Look... Even Qing Yun is interested." Hu Jia suddenly blurted out a sensitive claim that made Lu Qing Yun choked by the bottle of liquid she's drinking.

"Hey! That's the whole bottle of Changshen Dew! Don't you dare to waste it." Qin Lan said. Looking at the embarrassed Lu Qing Yun, he could only smile and focus on Hu Jia's treatment.

Although happy, he was somewhat angry at the same time.

'This woman of mine is getting crude the longer she carries the name of Qin Lan's legitimate wife. Should I teach her a lesson when she recovered?' he thought.

Gradually moving and adjusting the needle and injecting his spiritual energy to help her body fixing the wounds, sweat started to roll down from his forehead. It was a crucifying task for him because the body of a non-cultivator is different from those with a cultivation base.

It would only take less than a second for the spiritual energy to destroy Hu Jia's blood vessels and internal organs if Qin Lan made a mistake.

"Beloved husband," unknown what kind of trick she found in her sleeve again, Hu Jia once again started with her next barrage of questions. Of course, as someone who's been in this situation before, Qin Lan understands her mentally.

"Yes, beloved wife," he replied with a gentle and caring tone.

"Have you considered Zhou Mei's feelings? You do know she's fallen in love with you, right?" Hu Jia's antics once again came out as she has nothing to do while allowing Qin Lan to treat her wounds.

"I don't know. I've only looked at Lady Zhou as a friend and not a possible female companion." Qin Lan replied. Although there's a kind of attraction between him and Zhou Mei, he tried his best to not let his lust lead this strange relationship between him and Zhou Mei further.

Qin Lan might not be a virtuous man without perverted intention, but he's an upright gentleman. Fooling around with a girl's purity and heart was not something he would do.

That was also why Qin Lan did not "devour" Zhou Mei that night when it was considered the most fragile moment of hers.

"Beloved husband... Do you know by doing that, you're hurting yourself and her? I am not that selfish, do you know?" Hu Jia suddenly behaved like she was someone who's seen too much about the love and hate relationship between a man and a woman.

"Now you're speaking like you're one of the hermits on top of the mountain or a nun. Did some exalted being come into your conscience after losing your cultivation?" Qin Lan poked her forehead for disrupting him in the middle of treatment.

"Don't you know I have to focus?" he added. He had the urge to laugh out loud because what he used to lecture Hu Jia has indeed happened to him. If he was not crippled on that day for saving Lu Qing Yun, will his memory regarding his past emerge from his inner consciousness?

"Based on my beloved husband's medical expertise, even a cripple like him can return into a dragon. What is so hard about mending some sword wound on me?" Hu Jia smiled. She turned her head and staring passionately at Qin Lan.

Her heart beats much rapidly as she felt that her cheek started to blush.

"Husband... Why do I still feel some throbbing pain whenever I tried to look at you passionately? Was it because you're too attractive or because you're too energetic on the bed?" Hu Jia said.

**cough!!!**

"Lu Qing Yun! I told you before, that whole bottle is filled with Changshen Dew!" Qin Lan scolded Lu Qing Yun for almost coughing out everything out from the bottle.

"I... I'll have to roll away from the two of you before I did it for the third time... Please spare me from all of these torturings..." Lu Qing Yun slowly struggled as she crawled away from the two.

"Look at you..." Qin Lan said. But his action wasn't the same as his words as his hand went and slowly caressed Hu Jia's cherry-like cheeks.

"You shouldn't disappoint all the women faithfully staying by your side. Not just me, but Zhou Mei and Qing Yun too." Hu Jia whispered. Her words sounded like she was trying to plan everything before she left, but her meaning is clear behind each word she said.

'Zhou Mei... Lu Qing Yun... Do you think I really don't know about the heart of these maidens?' Qin Lan sighed.
