Fantasy: My Wife is the Empress, and Our Cute Kids Wreak Havoc in the Nine Provinces – Chapter 375

Chapter 375: If You Don’t Study Hard, You Won’t Even Understand When People Insult You

“Big Sister!”

The Two-Headed Little Pig, who had just emerged from the God Coffin, had a fawning smile on both of its pig faces. It extended a small dragon claw, and both pairs of its narrow pig eyes revealed a look of anticipation.

“What is it?”

Chu Xin asked with a puzzled expression.

The smiles on the Two-Headed Little Pig’s two pig faces instantly froze, and it hurriedly said, “Big Sister, you can’t go back on your word. You promised to give me a Ninth-Rank Illusion Beast core. You can’t deceive my young and pure heart.”

“Oh, you mean this.”

Chu Xin suddenly understood. With a wave of her fair little hand, a row of Ninth-Rank Illusion Beast cores floated in the air. She generously said, “Take your pick, choose any you like.”

“Big Sister is awesome.”

The Two-Headed Little Pig’s eyes immediately lit up. It clasped its two small dragon claws together and bowed to Chu Xin. Then, its small body floated up and circled around the cores, its two pairs of narrow pig eyes wide open as it carefully examined them.

“I’ll take this one.”

Finally, it chose the core that came from the Illusion Phoenix.

This core flickered with a scorching flame aura, which matched its original attribute. By devouring this core, perhaps its flame laws could transform into flame rules.

By then, it would control both fire and lightning rules, and its strength would greatly increase.

“Hmm, this one is not bad.”

Chu Xin glanced at it and nodded. Although these Ninth-Rank Illusion Beasts were no match for her, the Illusion Phoenix’s strength was considered quite good among them. She waved her hand and put away the remaining cores.

These were all good things. After rescuing Mother, they could take them back to Dàshí Village and give them to the Uncles and Aunties, Big Brothers and Big Sisters, and Little Brothers and Little Sisters in the village.

Hmm, Old Huang, Da Huang, and Xiao Huang could also use them.

“Thank you, Big Sister.”

The Two-Headed Little Pig bowed to Chu Xin again and then swallowed the Illusion Phoenix core in one gulp.

Boom!

Scorching flames rose from its body, baking the surrounding space.

Chu Xin raised her fair little hand, intending to put it back into the God Coffin, but on second thought, since it was devouring the Illusion Beast core, it would definitely need to absorb a large amount of Illusion God Power, so it was better to leave it outside.

Although she had taken the Heart of the Illusion God, the Illusion God Power in the Illusion God Mountain Range wouldn’t be depleted anytime soon. Apart from the Illusion Beasts in the Illusion God Abyss constantly crashing against the restriction, there were no other abnormalities.

Only when the Illusion Beasts in the Illusion God Mountain Range had absorbed a large amount of Illusion God Power, and the Illusion God Power gradually became thinner, would they sense something was wrong.

“Little Brother, is the meat ready yet?”

Chu Xin turned to Chu Chen and asked impatiently.

“It’s ready.”

Chu Chen picked up a roasted meat leg that was bigger than them and said with a smile.

While Chu Xin and his Battle Bodies were fighting the Ninth-Rank Illusion Beasts, he had been roasting meat inside the God Coffin.

“It smells so good.”

Chu Xin held up the huge roasted meat leg and sniffed it. It seemed to have a completely different aroma from other Illusion Beast meat, and it smelled very pleasant.

She opened her small mouth, revealing two rows of neat little white teeth, and took a big bite. After chewing a few times, her round eyes narrowed in enjoyment.

“This is so delicious, much better than Eighth-Rank Illusion Beast meat.”

She mumbled.

“Sister, there’s also Ninth-Rank Illusion Beast blood curd soup, try some.”

Chu Chen served a bowl of steaming blood curd soup and handed it to her.

Chu Xin took the soup and took a sip. Her eyes immediately lit up, and she shook her head, unable to find the words. Finally, she managed to say, “It’s so delicious.”

Hearing this, Chu Chen’s round eyes filled with a happy smile.

◈◈◈

More than the taste, he was happier that his sister praised his roasted meat and the blood curd soup he made.

Then he also picked up a piece of roasted meat and continued to turn the meat on the grill while eating.

After eating and drinking their fill, Chu Xin rubbed her little belly and suggested, “Little Brother, let’s go for a walk and look for the way to Long Province.”

Now that the Spirit Gathering Pool had just finished devouring the Illusion God Power, it would take a few more days to convert it. They had also eaten most of the roasted meat, so it was time to go for a walk.

Although they knew that the Middle-Long Provincial Sea was on the other side of the Illusion God Mountain Range, they had never been there before, so they needed to find the way first.

“Sister, are we going to cross the provincial sea? Aren’t we going to the Imperial Capital to take the teleportation formation to Long Province?”

Chu Chen asked in confusion.

Chu Xin rolled her eyes and said exasperatedly, “Stupid Brother, are you dumb? We emptied the Empress’s treasury. They must have discovered it by now. Going back to the Imperial Capital now is what Dad calls ‘walking into a net’.”

“Oh!”

Chu Chen nodded, then asked with some confusion, “Walking into a net? What does that mean?”

Chu Xin said with a look of disappointment, “I told you to study more, but you wouldn’t listen. Now you don’t even understand what people are saying. After we rescue Mother and return to Dàshí Village, you must study every day. Dad said, if you don’t study hard, you won’t even understand when people insult you.”

“Studying is tiring. It’s not as fun as practicing saber techniques and grilling meat.”

Chu Chen mumbled softly. Seeing that Chu Xin was about to lecture him again, he quickly asked, “Sister, you still haven’t told me what ‘walking into a net’ means.”

Chu Xin glared at him and explained, “It means the Empress will have people weave a huge net with a formation, and if we go back foolishly, we’ll be caught by their formation net. That’s called ‘walking into a net’. Remember that.”

“I see, I’ll remember that.”

Chu Chen suddenly understood. Then he asked with some doubt, “Sister, is that formation net very powerful? Can’t we just break it?”

“That seems to make sense.”

Chu Xin was stunned. She blinked her round eyes and thought about it seriously. Then she shook her head and said, “No, Dad said ‘walking into a net’ is a very foolish thing, something only a fool would do. We’re not fools, so we can’t walk into a net. Even if we can break the net, we still can’t.”

“Oh!”

Chu Chen nodded and repeated “walking into a net” a few times. He couldn’t help but ask, “Sister, did Dad really say that?”

Although he couldn’t remember many of the things Dad said, these four words sounded a bit strange to him.

“Of course, I wouldn’t remember it wrong.”

Chu Xin said with a serious face, her tone very confident.

“Alright.”

Chu Chen scratched his head and didn’t dwell on it further. He couldn’t remember what Dad had said anyway, and since his sister’s memory was so good, she probably wouldn’t remember it wrong.

“Let’s go.”

Chu Xin waved her fair little hand, leaving a few Battle Bodies to guard the Two-Headed Little Pig and the Spirit Gathering Pool, which had started devouring Illusion God Power again. Then, she and Chu Chen leisurely flew towards the other side of the Illusion God Mountain Range while drinking their beast milk.

“Huh? There are people?”

After flying for a while, Chu Xin’s eyes suddenly flashed with surprise.

“From Long Province?”

Chu Chen looked at the blood demon masks on the faces of the group in front of them and the clothes they were wearing, which were the same as the group of Long Province cultivators they had encountered in the Illusion God Mountain Range last time.
