Chapter 118: Chapter 118: Each Using Their Own Means

Early the next morning, Wen Nanxi got up and looked at Su Muyao’s serene sleeping face, his eyes so soft, they seemed to overflow, the affection was evident.

He lowered his head and gently kissed her brow, his eyes full of tenderness, and his heart brimming with love.

Su Muyao was so sleepy that she couldn’t open her eyes, "Don’t."

Su Muyao’s voice was almost hoarse.

"I want to sleep."

Wen Nanxi’s heart was as soft as if it were melting.

At this moment, his body and soul were both satisfied.

"Alright, I won’t bother you, sleep well."

"Sorry, next time I..."

He wanted to say he wouldn’t disturb her like this next time, but felt saying it would be lying.

He couldn’t bear to lie to her.

She was too wonderful, making him lose control.

His prideful self-control was of no use.

He had fallen into her hands but relished it.

"Go ahead and sleep!"

Wen Nanxi gently tidied her hair before reluctantly leaving.

He closed the door for her.

Wen Nanxi came out of the room and saw Mei Qingchen standing at the door, looking at him with dark circles under his eyes.

Wen Nanxi seemed satisfied, both physically and mentally, exuding a sense of nobility and elegance.

His brows were relaxed.

This was the look of contentment.

Seeing Wen Nanxi like this, Mei Qingchen felt a toothache, with an uncomfortable surge in his heart.

"You’re comfortable, but you tormented us all night."

Wen Nanxi naturally knew what Mei Qingchen meant, and said calmly and gracefully, "You could choose to put a barrier around your room and not listen."

Mei Qingchen was stunned for a moment, unsure why he didn’t put up a barrier and listened all night.

"Aren’t you worried you’ll wear out the wife if you don’t pace yourself?"

Wen Nanxi looked at Mei Qingchen leisurely, his gentle and picturesque eyes with a hint of seductive darkness.

"You don’t understand these sorts of things."

Listening to Wen Nanxi, Mei Qingchen almost spit blood in frustration.

Why did he come here to torture himself early in the morning?

He didn’t rest all night and was stabbed by Wen Nanxi’s words.

But Wen Nanxi continued to look at him, saying lightly, "Have you learned to care for the wife now?"

"What about before?"

Wen Nanxi’s expression was indescribable, making Mei Qingchen feel even worse inside.

He stiffly said, "I was indeed wrong before, but I’m changing now, aren’t I?"

Wen Nanxi said indifferently, "As you wish."

He wouldn’t care about others as long as they didn’t hurt the wife.

But he himself would protect her with his life.

She was more precious than his life.

Seeing Mei Qingchen in deep thought, Wen Nanxi waved his sleeve gently and said, "Alright, step aside, I need to go cook for the wife."

"She’s tired, let her sleep a little longer, so when she wakes up, she can have a hot meal immediately."

He wanted to personally make the food she loved.

Seeing Wen Nanxi like this, Mei Qingchen felt a toothache.

But when Wen Nanxi lightly waved his sleeve, without even using strength, Mei Qingchen felt a powerful aura.

Mei Qingchen looked at Wen Nanxi with shocked and incredulous eyes, "You... did your superpower upgrade again?"

"No, you were at Level 4 last time, and in just one night you’ve reached Level 5!"

"Just together with the wife, you two?"

Realizing something, Mei Qingchen’s mind violently trembled.

This was unprecedented; a contract could actually enhance superpower capability.

There was no such case on the entire Beast World Continent.

Everyone knew how difficult it was to upgrade a superpower!

He had been stuck at Level 3 Peak for many years, never breaking through.

And he never dared to slack off in cultivation.

He trained diligently every day, but his strength never changed.

Before, Wen Nanxi was only at Level 3 Early Stage, not even as strong as him.

Wen Nanxi also realized that his superpower had upgraded to Level 5.

From Level 3 to Level 5, it was all because of the wife.

Last time, the elixir repaired him from Level 3 to Level 4, and this time, the contract did the same.

Level 5, that meant first-class power, and he could better protect the wife.

The most crucial thing was that the residual Divine Soul injuries in his body seemed to be comforted and repaired by her spiritual power.

His body had improved greatly.

The contract method could repair Divine Soul and severe internal injuries.

It was a type of damage that couldn’t be repaired by medicine or other means.

So, in Wen Nanxi’s heart, waves were stirred, his mind trembling.

His wife was indeed unparalleled, the most precious and wonderful person in the world.

Mei Qingchen looked at Wen Nanxi’s expression and understood without needing any words.

"I get it!"

Just like father and mother said, the wife is extraordinary.

She’s not comparable to an ordinary she-beast.

Luckily, the letters from father and mother arrived in time, otherwise, he might have been kicked out.

Light sparkled in Mei Qingchen’s eyes as he seemed eager to try.

Wen Nanxi didn’t care about him and went to the kitchen to cook.

To ensure the wife could eat her favorite hot meal when she woke up.

After being exhausted all night, she must be hungry too.

Xiao Jihan got up early and was working in the yard, fetching water, chopping wood, drying herbs, and organizing everything neatly.

He also heard the conversation between Mei Qingchen and Wen Nanxi just now.

Contract upgrade?

Unheard of.

An ocean stirred in the usually calm eyes of Xiao Jihan.

If such a thing were known, it would undoubtedly cause a sensation.

Imagining this, Xiao Jihan felt his heart tighten.

His work became somewhat uneasy.

"By the way, the wife mentioned before wanting a millstone to make it easier to grind things at home."

Xiao Jihan then left the courtyard, personally seeking stones to personally craft a millstone.

Not knowing how to express his care, he simply wanted to do more for the wife.

The wife would be happy, wouldn’t she!

Hua Linye worked tirelessly, making clothes.

To be faster, he used his superpower, needles and threads turned into a blur in his hands.

His eyes were bloodshot.

Not sure if it was due to emotional upheaval last night or staying up late.

Regardless, Hua Linye didn’t care about anything else, just wanting to finish making the clothes quickly.

That way he would have an excuse to go find the wife.

Su Muyao slept deeply.

At first, she was exhausted, but gradually she didn’t know why, just feeling so light and comfortable.

It seemed like spiritual energy was surging into her body, with a very warm and comfortable feeling.

So she slept very well afterwards.

When she woke up, Su Muyao discovered her superpower went straight from Level 2 to Level 4.

"Congratulations, Host, your superpower has risen from Level 2 to Level 4."

"The first contract, with the First Beast Husband being the Ancient Celestial Snake, with strong bloodline, so the host directly crossed two levels."

Previously, at the Oasis, Su Muyao had directly dropped from Level 3 to Level 2 while nurturing Xie Guixue’s body.

But later her physique changed, so her strength wouldn’t decrease.

Upon further cultivation, she had increased partway, but was only a bit over Level 2.

Unexpectedly, after just one night, she went straight from Level 2 to Level 4, which made Su Muyao very happy.

Su Muyao got up refreshed and washed up.

Just opened the door to see Mei Qingchen practicing swordplay directly opposite.

He was practicing shirtless.

It was unknown how long he had been practicing, a thin layer of sweat on his chest muscles gleamed with a tempting gloss under sunlight.

Sweat rolled down from above.

His throat moved as he wielded the sword vigorously, causing heavy breathing, chest heaving.

Uncertain if showcasing strength or something else.

Su Muyao was caught off guard by this scene.

Practicing swordplay properly, why wouldn’t he wear clothes, and directly face her room’s door.
