The Sixth Spiritual Artifact
Chen Yu slept for a day, so when she woke up, she was naturally not sleepy. Lou Ming had been worried all day and was reluctant to leave when Chen Yu woke up. The two sat in the garden outside the villa, snuggling and chatting.
âAre you cold?â Although it was already late spring and early summer, the night breeze was still a bit cool.
âIf you hug me, I wonât be cold,â Chen Yu said and burrowed into Lou Mingâs arms again.
So was she cold or not? Lou Ming shook his head with a smile, but still embraced the woman in his arms.
âThird Brother, when can we get married?â Chen Yu suddenly asked.
ââŚâ Why does this girl keep asking about marriage today? âChinese law stipulates that women must be twenty years old before they can register for marriage.â
âThen thatâsâŚâ Chen Yu calculated inwardly for a while. âItâs still a year and three months away before I can have a baby.â
Lou Ming almost choked on his own saliva. He glanced at Chen Yu speechlessly: âWhy do you suddenly⌠want to get married?â
âBecause I like you, ah.â Because in the past thousands of years, we met many times, loved each other countless times, but we didnât end up together in each lifetime. âWeâd better stay together if we love each other. Who knows what will happen tomorrow.â
Precisely, ah. Get married if we love each other. Otherwise, who knows what will happen tomorrow? Had I understood this truth in previous lives, how could I have missed it in so many lives?
âWe are already together,â Lou Ming retorted with a satisfied smile on his face.
âBut we can only consummate the marriage in advance,â Chen Yu suddenly said again.
âYouâŚâ Lou Ming was really between tears and laughter. âWhatâs going on in your head?â
âNo!â Chen Yu suddenly sat up from Lou Mingâs arms, and said quite seriously, âThings now arenât how they used to be. No one stipulates that you have to get married first and then consummate.â
The more she spoke, the more absurd she became. Lou Ming couldnât help but lower his voice and warn, âShishi.â
âSomeone can get married at the age of 18. In ancient times, you could get married at the age of 16.â
âShishi!â Blue veins burst in Lou Mingâs forehead, and he couldnât help but aggravate his tone.
âThird BrotherâŚâ Chen Yu raised her head with a look of impatience, âLetâs consummate our marriage.â
Lou Mingâs eyes instantly widened, and he jolted up from the bench. The darkness concealed his crimson face: âShishi, do you know what you are saying?â
âOf course, ah. Third Brother, donât tell me that you donât wantâŚâ
âStop it.â Lou Ming was going crazy. Did this girl know what she was talking about? Was there a man who didnât want to be with his beloved woman⌠in that aspect.
âThen donât if you donât want to. Then kissing is just fine.â Chen Yu suddenly jumped up from the bench, leaned over, and captured Lou Mingâs lips.
Lou Mingâs mind was in a whirl due to Chen Yuâs provocation, but there was nothing he could do about it. In the end, he sighed, raised his hand and brushed Chen Yuâs wind-ruffled hair. He asked, âWhy did you suddenly faint this morning? â
(Donât tell Feng Luo that I exist.) This was Ling Jiâs instruction before Chen Yu woke up.
âItâs just⌠I just sensed the fifth spiritual artifact, and then my spiritual power was drained at once. Thatâs why I fainted,â Chen Yu replied with half-truths.
âYou sensed the spiritual artifact? Why would you sense it?â Lou Ming frowned and asked.
âI donât know. It suddenly popped out by itself,â Chen Yu said sheepishly. For fear that Lou Ming would capture some clues, she quickly changed the topic and said, âThird Brother, now we have found five spiritual artifacts. Thereâs only one missing. When we return to the capital, we will be able to find the sixth spiritual artifact through the Pentagram Convergence Array.â
âWe will return to the capital when the Qingmang Mountain matter is resolved.â Lou Ming did not expect the fifth spiritual artifact to be so easily obtained. However, could the drought demon in Qingmang Mountain be completely eliminated?
âDonât worry, I have a way,â Chen Yu said confidently.
âDo you have a solution?â Lou Ming exclaimed in amazement.
âYeah. I know the way to seal a drought demon.â Chen Yu raised her eyebrows proudly. Because five millennia ago, her previous life sealed the drought demon of Qingmang Mountain.
