Stepping through that secret door, he entered a completely enclosed room.
Inside the room.
Under the glow of a crystal night lamp.
There was a bed carved entirely from Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice.
Around the bed, sheer white silk curtains hung like mist.
The incomparably beautiful Su Ran sat cross-legged on the icy surface.
Moreover, she was completely naked!
On her chest, a faint golden phoenix shimmered into view.
The phoenix burned with golden flames.
The fire seared Su Ran’s flawless skin.
It was clear she was using the ice to resist the scorching golden flames!
Chen Fei was stunned.
His eyes were fixed on Su Ran.
Her long, slender jade-like legs were intertwined in a seated posture. Her delicate waist, rising curves, all formed a mesmerizing sight.
This woman was simply too beautiful!
In that instant, Chen Fei was dumbfounded.
Unfortunately, the sheer curtain blurred his view.
But even so, his heart pounded wildly.
On the ice bed, Su Ran heard the sound and suddenly opened her eyes.
She looked at Chen Fei and instinctively wanted to cover herself.
But then—
Su Ran quickly realized.
This was her newlywed husband.
And he was blind.
Relaxing her grip on the clothing in her hands, she frowned slightly and spoke, “Chen Fei, don’t worry. I just accidentally got scratched by a nail.”
Chen Fei snapped back to his senses, hurriedly reaching out like a blind man, groping the surroundings.
Beside the bed was a round table.
On the table sat a teapot and cups.
Chen Fei found the teapot and clumsily poured himself a cup of water.
Draining it in one gulp, he said, “I was thirsty just now, couldn’t find any water, and happened to hear a sound coming from here, so I pushed open the hidden door and walked in. I didn’t expect Miss Su to be here. Anyway, thank you, Miss Su, for saving my life.”
Su Ran’s expression remained cold as she nodded indifferently. “No need to thank me. You and I are merely using each other. The bruises on your body will heal with the help of the Spirit-Eyed Blood Serpent pill. But to fully recover your dantian, you need a Holy Recovery Pill, which I don’t have. As for your eyes, ordinary medicine won’t restore them. Only an extraordinary opportunity—perhaps only something in the Great Qing Capital—could possibly work.”
Chen Fei let out a long sigh. “Keeping my life is already more than enough. I am deeply grateful.”
Su Ran remained expressionless and spoke coldly, “By marrying me, you will have even more people wanting to kill you. Whether you can truly keep your life will depend on your fate.”
“The son of the city lord, Ye Bufan, has been relentlessly pursuing me, oppressing my Su family, and forcing me to marry him. With no other choice, I held the selection ceremony, and you were merely a shield.”
“There’s no need for gratitude. I can’t keep you by my side at all times, so for now, avoid going out. Now, return to your room and don’t come here unless necessary.”
Chen Fei nodded.
Reaching out with his hands like a blind man, he staggered out of the secret chamber.
Su Ran frowned slightly and muttered in her heart: Strange… Even though he’s blind, I felt as if he could see me naked.
She quickly dismissed the thought and resumed her cultivation.
She needed to seize every moment to merge the phoenix into her soul!
Chen Fei walked back, his heart still racing.
He secretly felt a little regretful. If he had the chance to remove those silk curtains surrounding the Profound Ice Bed, it would be even better.
But there would be plenty of opportunities in the future. After all, they were already married.
His wife had her own secrets.
Her cultivation method was unheard of!
Chen Fei rubbed his chin. He had, of course, heard of Su Ran before. She was on the same level as Qin Shuang—both renowned beauties, known as the Twin Jewels of Huangwu City.
Moreover, rumors claimed that Su Ran was even more stunning, while Qin Shuang was gentle, kind, and pure-hearted—the true embodiment of a white lotus.
But who could have imagined that the real Qin Shuang was as venomous as a viper?
Before now, in Huangwu City, only Su Ran’s beauty and business acumen were widely discussed.
No one ever mentioned any martial prowess.
But now, it was clear—Su Ran’s true secret lay in that golden flaming phoenix on her chest.
“Could it be… a legendary bloodline inheritance?”
Chen Fei’s expression turned into shock.
If this was truly a bloodline awakening—especially a one-in-a-million Phoenix Bloodline—then his wife’s future would soar beyond the heavens!
Even the most powerful cultivators in Great Qing Kingdom would pale in comparison!
“Hah! No matter what happens with Su Ran, I need to find a way to replace my shattered dantian. My eyes have already recovered their vision… and I will take my revenge on the Qin family!”
“I strategized for the Qin family, helped them rise to become one of the Three Great Clans!”
“To boost Qin Shuang’s cultivation, I risked my life over and over again, scouring the land for rare spirit medicines to aid her training! I was wounded countless times, even sacrificing my own progress!”
“But in the end, it was all a trap! I was nothing more than a pathetic lapdog! And my unborn child… I wonder if Qin Shuang will even let it live!”
“For now, the most important thing is to restore my strength as quickly as possible!”
Chen Fei forcibly pushed away the alluring image of Su Ran’s graceful body from his mind.
Sitting cross-legged, he began cultivating using the Ten-Thousand Dao Void Cauldron.
The surrounding spiritual energy surged toward his dantian, condensing into power and flowing throughout his body.
“Hm? With the Void Cauldron replacing my dantian, my absorption speed is even faster!”
“This is truly a blessing in disguise! Even though Qin Shuang shattered my dantian, it actually triggered the emergence of the Void Cauldron. Now, my cultivation speed has become terrifyingly fast!”
“At this rate, I’ll reach Ninth-Grade Spiritual Master in no time!”
Chen Fei immersed himself in cultivation.
Two hours later, he stretched his muscles and revealed a pleased smile.
“I’ve already broken through to Seventh-Grade Spiritual Master! The Void Cauldron is too powerful!”
“Unfortunately, the spiritual energy in this place is too thin—I’ve nearly drained it all.”
“It seems I need to find a place rich in spiritual energy for proper cultivation.”
“Ah… why do I feel thirsty again? Well, I guess I should go to my wife’s room for another drink.”
Chen Fei smacked his lips, excitement bubbling in his chest. He eagerly jumped off the bed, pushed open the secret stone door, and stepped inside once again.
