My Wife Is A General Who Killed Tens Of Thousands On The Battlefield-Chapter 248 - Su Wen is... the Nanli King?

Chapter 248: Su Wen is… the Nanli King?

Wang Dechao retreated while Su Wen walked out from the side.

Xiang Feiyan threw herself into his arms and asked with a smile, “Brother Wen, why do you insist on disgusting the readers even though you can clearly write a book that people like?”

Su Wen smiled. “Because I feel good! Don’t you find it interesting to see them angry and helpless?”

“You… are such a pervert…”

“Don’t you like it?”

“I like it…”

To Su Wen, the Emotional Value he had harvested this time was already enough.

Xiang Feiyan was still very supportive of Su Wen.

Although she could not understand it, her trust in Su Wen had already reached an extremely high level.

Even if Su Wen had some bad taste, she could still accept it.

In the quiet room, Su Wen looked at his nearly 8 million Emotional Value and smiled smugly!

Awesome! Really awesome!

This book was much more popular than Liang Zhu and the Legend of the Condor Heroes.

After all, the preparation time for the early stages was even longer.

The final effect left Su Wen very satisfied.

He looked at his system interface.

Host: Su Wen

Emotional Value: 8.3 million points

Level: 42

Cultivation: 1st Grade Heaven Rank

Cultivation Technique: Heaven & Earth Great Solar Sutra

Body Tempering Cultivation Technique: Vermillion Bird Glazed Body

Battle Technique: Jadebreak Fist (LV9) Layered Wave Saber (LV9) Stellar Transposition (LV5) Great Solar Supreme Policy (LV5) Roaming Dragon Wind Sword (LV8)

Bloodline: Vermilion Bird

Special Skill: Embodiment of the Vermillion Bird (Completion Rate: 0.1%) (Currently able to transform into a young Vermillion Bird, time limit: 3 seconds)

He leveled up four times in total as well.

Su Wen started to ponder about his next steps.

Firstly, he had to figure out how to spend his Emotional Value.

If he upgraded the Roaming Dragon Wind Sword, he would definitely reach the maximum level.

This was also the first time Su Wen would obtain a perfect Heaven Rank cultivation technique.

At the same time, Su Wen would also have a chance to learn the Paragon Sword Move.

He had come this far, but…

Su Wen hesitated.

What if he couldn’t f*cking learn it after reaching the maximum level?

That would be a huge loss.

However, after pondering for a moment, Su Wen still decided to upgrade the Roaming Dragon Wind Sword.

He was already at the doorstep, so there was no way he could retreat!

[Ding-dong. Host, are you sure you want to spend 7 million Emotional Value points to upgrade the Roaming Dragon Wind Sword to Level 9?]

Upgrade!

Su Wen’s expression was solemn.

Boom!

At this moment, Su Wen’s consciousness exploded.

Countless insights into the Sword Dao surged into his sea of consciousness.

He shut his eyes as he took them all in!

Time slowly passed.

One day, two days, three days… eight days, nine days, ten days… Su Wen fell into a state of enlightenment.

No one expected that Su Wen would really enter seclusion for a long time.

Because in the past, Su Wen did not spend much time cultivating.

But this time, after he raised the Heaven Rank martial technique to the extreme…

Su Wen touched a domain that he had never touched before.

If an Earth Rank cultivator broke through to the Heaven Rank, then that would be through their understanding of the world, their self-awareness, and their desire for power.

But if one managed to completely comprehend Heaven Rank martial technique…

What they would come into contact with would be the true laws of the world.

In reality, no one could fully comprehend a Heaven Rank technique at the 1st Grade of Heaven Rank.

It had to be known that every Heaven Rank martial technique, regardless of its difficulty, was broad and profound, and more or less involved the essence and rules of the world.

Only then could it be called a Heaven Rank martial technique.

Those who could create a Heaven Rank martial technique were all mighty figures!

It was also thanks to Su Wen being a Heaven Rank martial artist that his body was able to communicate with the heavens and earth, and the cultivation technique within his body automatically circulated.

The purest Heaven Earth Origin Qi surged into his body, ensuring that nothing happened to Su Wen.

Outside the chamber, the Su family’s women were all very worried.

They looked at Ning Shuang who was guarding the door. Xie Yiyi could not help but ask, “Sister Ning Shuang, is Husband alright?”

Ning Shuang was a Heaven Rank expert. Ever since Su Wen fell into a state of enlightenment, she was the first to sense something amiss.

Hence, she decided to stay outside his chambers and not go anywhere.

She shook her head and said, “I don’t know, but I know that Husband is definitely still doing well.”

Hearing her words, everyone felt much more at ease.

Wu Muyu smiled at Ning Shuang and said, “Sister Ning Shuang, what do you want to eat? Muyu will make it for you. It’s been hard on you these past few days.”

The little girl knew how to conduct herself. Furthermore, she knew very well that in Su Wen’s heart, Ning Shuang was undoubtedly at the top, and a Heaven Rank expert to boot.

If she could build up their relationship, then it would be akin to having a thick thigh to hold onto.

Ning Shuang shook her head and said, “There’s no need to go through so much trouble. Just let the chef do it normally.”

As they were speaking, a report arrived.

“Her Majesty has arrived!”

As soon as Su Wen entered seclusion, Xiang Feiyan panicked.

Since she could not see Su Wen for two days, she sent someone to ask.

Only after knowing that Su Wen was only in seclusion did she relax.

At this moment, she was carrying with her a huge stomach.

Upon arriving at the courtyard…

The women of the household greeted her.

Xiang Feiyan looked at Ning Shuang and asked in concern, “Sister Ning Shuang, is Brother Wen alright?”

In this courtyard, Xiang Feiyan would not put on airs. She addressed these women as sisters.

Especially since she also knew that Ning Shuang was a Heaven Rank expert.

It didn’t matter who they used to be. As long as one broke through to the Heaven Rank, their status would be high above everyone else.

Ning Shuang explained what she had told the other ladies once again.

Xiang Feiyan said, “Alright then. Other than visiting Little Brother Wen, I still want to look for Sister Ni. The child has been acting abnormally these past two days, and I’m afraid she will be born soon. I’m afraid there will be an accident, so I still want Sister Ni to look after her.”

Ning Shuang looked at Ni Hongxiao’s laboratory…

That was the forbidden area of the residence.

Most people would take a detour even if it made the distance much further.

Soon, Ni Hongxiao was invited out.

Everyone stared at the two dark circles under her eyes. It seemed that she had not slept for many days.

It was unknown what she was working on at this moment.

“Let’s go into the palace!”

Ni Hongxiao’s words were very simple and direct.

In the palace, Xiang Ding was guarding the huge egg.

At this moment, the surroundings of the egg were constantly emitting a white glow.

The two colors intertwined and were difficult to distinguish.

The array was also flickering, as though it was breathing.

The moment Ni Hongxiao entered, she frowned.

In reality, this situation had exceeded her expectations.

She walked to the egg and placed her hand on it.

She closed his eyes and silently sensed the happenings within the egg.

This child did not have a pure fire attribute talent like Su Su. The powerful wind element in the 7th Grade Heaven Rank ferocious beast egg still affected this child greatly.

It was not completely based on Su Wen and Xiang Feiyan’s bloodline like Ni Hongxiao had predicted.

“Hmm… the effect of the spirit design to suppress growth is not bad. It looks like an ordinary baby… This talent can be said to be top-notch. The two wind and fire attributed talents must be extremely good…”

Ni Hongxiao sensed in her heart.

“The child is in a good state and should be about to break out of the shell. However, during its growth, it was still affected by the original nature of the egg… Then why didn’t Su Su get affected? Or did I not notice it? If Su Su wasn’t affected, then what kind of beast egg is that?”

She was a little puzzled, but she naturally wouldn’t say anything. After all, this had nothing to do with Xiang Feiyan.

However, in this child’s current state, it could be considered a good thing…

“Don’t worry, there’s no problem. This child has absorbed a large amount of the Violent Wind Lizard Dragon’s essence and also has Su Wen’s fire attribute bloodline. The two attributes can be considered to be compatible. In the future, regardless of whether he cultivates a fire attribute cultivation technique or a wind attribute cultivation technique, it will only serve as a boost to him.”

Hearing this, Xiang Feiyan was extremely happy.

Xiang Ding also grinned.

Although according to Ni Hongxiao’s words, it was not a good choice for this child to cultivate the Xiang Family’s inherited martial techniques, he did not blindly believe that cultivating the royal family’s secret martial techniques was the best.

Xiang Ding had already begun to ponder… where to get a top-notch wind attribute cultivation technique?

He was not worried about the fire attribute cultivation technique. Xiang Feiyan was a disciple of the Flame God Sect, and Su Wen had also cultivated a fire attribute cultivation technique.

However, one had to obtain a top tier wind attribute cultivation technique.

Whether it was using fire as the foundation or wind as the foundation, complementing it with another cultivation technique was an excellent choice.

In reality, Xiang Ding had also taken a fancy to Su Wen’s extraordinary talent and specially went to obtain a wind attribute ferocious beast egg.

He was not stupid. Didn’t Xiang Feiyan know what kind of person she was?

The main reason was because of Su Wen’s talent and bloodline.

In reality, he had great expectations for this child.

If not for this child, he would not have hesitated between Xiang Feiyan and Xiang Feng back then. It was very likely that he would have directly supported Xiang Feng.

The reason why he hesitated back then was because Su Wen’s talent was too outstanding.

During the battle in the royal palace, Su Wen’s combat strength as a 9th Grade Earth Rank cultivator had completely exceeded Xiang Ding’s imagination.

Xiang Feng’s talent was indeed outstanding, but that depended on how one looked at it.

As a Heaven Rank expert, he wasn’t outstanding at all.

At the very least, he was still far from Su Wen.

Hence, when Xiang Feiyan and Su Wen decided to have a child together, Xiang Ding took the initiative.

It was also because of this child that he hesitated in directly ousting Xiang Feiyan.

Otherwise, he would definitely support the ascension of the Xiang Clan’s Heaven Rank expert.

In the hall, Ni Hongxiao removed the surrounding array formations and said, “In another four hours, this child will be born!”

The three of them were very quiet.

After the array was removed, the light that resembled breathing became brighter in the entire hall.

Four hours later, directly at noon…

The eggshell began to crack.

Kacha! Kacha! Kacha!

Xiang Feiyan and Xiang Ding held their breaths, where Ni Hongxiao still had on a calm expression like it was no business of hers.

Suddenly, a bright light shone and gathered together.

Pa!

A small foot stretched out from the eggshell!

A baby kicked open the eggshell.

Ni Hongxiao quickly reminded, “Quickly hug him!”

Xiang Feiyan hurried forward, wondering if this child was any different from a newborn human baby.

He looked a little bigger, like a child who was already in his first month.

It was a baby boy.

Unlike Susu, his hair was black.

However, when he opened his eyes, Xiang Feiyan was shocked!

“Fourth Great-Grandfather! Look, what’s going on?”

The child’s eyes were completely abnormal. Instead, they resembled the eyes of a dragon.

Cold and domineering.

The child looked around at this unfamiliar world.

Even Xiang Feiyan felt her body turn cold when this child stared at her.

Xiang Ding went forward to take a look and said happily, “Haha! This is my Xiang Family’s dragon! Such domineeringness, you will definitely be my Great Chu Emperor!”

Needless to say, Xiang Ding looked down on Xiang Sheng.

He was different from Xiang Feiyan. He had no feelings for Xiang Sheng.

In addition, Xiang Sheng’s talent was not good. Some of his actions made him even more displeased.

Thus, in his heart, he did not have any good feelings towards Xiang Sheng.

As for this child, he had personally snatched away the vicious beast egg needed to support it. On top of that, his talent was clearly extraordinary. Thus, he would naturally like him even more.

However, Xiang Feiyan was displeased.

It was not that she favored Xiang Sheng this time.

It was because she didn’t like Xiang Ding’s tone, as if he had already decided on a successor.

She said coldly, “Whether he’s the Emperor of Great Chu or not, we still have to keep looking! What if he’s obsessed with martial arts and doesn’t like authority?”

“That’s true, that’s true!” Xiang Ding chimed in.

Finally, after Xiang Feng died, something pleasant happened.

That child, though a newborn, had limbs that were extremely strong.

He continued to snuggle in Xiang Feiyan’s embrace, clearly looking for milk.

Xiang Feiyan had no choice.

She quickly gave the order for someone to send in some vicious beast’s milk!

Xiang Feiyan would give anything to this child.

“What’s this child’s name?” Xiang Ding pondered.

Xiang Feiyan sneered, “You don’t have to worry about that. I believe the Nanli King will come up with a good name!”

Although Xiang Ding was displeased, he was unwilling to argue with Xiang Feiyan over this matter.

Furthermore, it was also appropriate to leave the naming to Su Wen.

He only said coldly, “Then take good care of him! He’s the hope of my Xiang family!”

With that said, he turned around and left.

Su Wen did not know that his son had already been born.

At this moment, he was still immersed in his comprehension of the Sword Dao.

It was vast like smoke, ethereal and difficult to find.

This was the so-called Dao.

But now, it was placed right in front of Su Wen.

It was sharp! Full of Killing intent! Rendering everything to pieces!

All the essential laws of the sword were laid out for Su Wen to comprehend.

How much could he comprehend? Su Wen did not know either. He was like a sponge that kept absorbing.

He did not know how much time had passed.

A hundred days, three months!

Just as the Zhou Country’s delegation entered the capital of Great Chu, Su Wen opened his eyes.

After his consciousness was forcefully withdrawn, a notification sounded in Su Wen’s ear.

[Ding-dong. 100 days of comprehension has ended. Host, please work harder and put in your utmost!]

Su Wen shook his head and sighed.

He could not sense that a hundred days had actually passed.

It could even be said that he felt that he had not cultivated enough.

Obviously, when one cultivated a Heaven Rank martial technique to the limit, they would have a chance to comprehend the Dao for a hundred days.

It was considered the key to opening the door.

“Can I use my Emotional Value to enter that state?” Su Wen asked.

That feeling was too intoxicating for him.

“No, the host can try to cultivate by yourself and comprehend it.”

“Heh heh heh!”

Su Wen’s mind was suddenly filled with a herd of alpacas.

(TL Note: The animal Alpaca, in Chinese, sounds the same as the Chinese for ‘F*ck your mom.’)

Was that state so easy to enter? If he slowly comprehended it, who knew how much time and energy it would take?

He didn’t dwell on it, instead turning his gaze to the Paragon Rank sword move.

[Ding-dong. The host can learn the sword move — Daybreak. Emotional Value required is 1,000,000.]

Su Wen raised his eyebrows!

This thing was so powerful?

Even when he first cultivated the Great Solar Supreme Policy, he only needed 100,000 Emotional Value points.

“Learn!”

[Ding-dong. The host has learned the Paragon Rank sword technique, Dawn! Please note that the Paragon Rank cannot be directly upgraded through Emotional Value. Please comprehend it patiently.]

“Harh?”

Su Wen was left speechless. There was even such a thing?

Su Wen was used to taking shortcuts, so he was a little unhappy that this happened.

However, he roughly understood that the system was not omnipotent. For comprehension of the Sword Dao through a Paragon Rank sword move, it was clear that the power of these levels had already begun to exceed the scope that the system could directly provide him with.

Being able to help him directly learn the basics was already very impressive.

A large amount of information surged into his mind, and Su Wen fell into a state of enlightenment once again.

If he were to comprehend it himself, he really did not know how long it would take for him to do so.

Ning Shuang, who was at the door, sensed that Su Wen’s aura had changed. She originally thought that Su Wen was about to wake up, but she immediately sensed that Su Wen had fallen into a mysterious realm once again. His entire body exuded a profound feeling.

At the city gate, the Great Zhou delegation had already arrived.

As the leader, Wu Qiuhan led Feng Baichuan, Zhao Xuanxuan, Zhao Bin, and the others.

He had sent people to contact them in advance in the past. According to etiquette, someone should come to pick them up.

As expected, they saw a welcoming team at the city gate.

Wu Qiuhan’s expression was solemn. This was a major matter of the country, and he could not allow anything to go wrong. He represented the Great Zhou this time.

The further they walked, the closer they got.

Suddenly, Wu Qiuhan frowned!

Why did that person look so familiar?

He gradually saw the face clearly.

“Su Yu!”

He cried out involuntarily!

He never expected… to see Su Yu here…

What was going on?

Su Yu naturally knew that it was him long ago. With a calm expression, he took a step forward and shouted, “The Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Rites of Great Chu, Su Yu, is here on Her Majesty’s orders to welcome the Zhou Country’s delegation.”

This was his duty.

Everyone in Great Zhou gaped.

This… this was too unexpected.

Wu Qiuhan was a high-ranking official after all, so he reacted quickly.

His expression changed continuously as he cupped his hands and said, “Prime Minister Wu Qiuhan of the Great Zhou Dynasty has come on the orders of the Great Zhou Emperor to lead the Fifth Princess, Zhao Xuanxuan, and the Sixth Prince, Zhao Bin, to see His Majesty the Great Chu Emperor.”

Su Yu said with a smile, “Lord Wu has been promoted. It’s just that I didn’t expect that you would be the one to personally go on an envoy. It seems that the Zhou Emperor values this envoy very much. However, you guys should follow me to your lodgings first. There’s no hurry to pay your respects to His Majesty!”

Wu Qiuhan knew that at this point, he had to force himself to enter.

He brought his men and followed Su Yu into the capital of Great Chu.

Along the way, Wu Qiuhan felt nervous.

In reality, it was not just Wu Qiuhan. Everyone was still a little lost.

As everyone was walking, a horse suddenly galloped behind them. The messenger knight on the horse roared, “Great victory! Great victory! Yan Luoying led the army to seize another three cities of Ji Luo Country!”

Upon hearing this name, everyone from Great Zhou trembled.

Wu Qiuhan forced a smile and asked, “Nephew Su, have you all come to Chu?”

Su Yu did not hide anything and smiled. “That’s right.”

However, he did not elaborate.

Neither did Wu Qiuhan dare to ask further.

When they arrived at their lodgings, Su Yu smiled and said, “You guys stay here for now. I will report to Her Majesty to ask when you will meet him. The decision lies with Her Majesty.”

Wu Qiuhan could only watch him leave helplessly.

After Su Yu left, Wu Qiuhan called over the official from the station and said with a smile, “Sir, this is my first time in your capital. May I ask you a few questions?”

“No!” That person rolled his eyes and said, “You Zhou people are very bad. Lord Zhang was killed by you! Don’t talk to me!”

Wu Qiuhan was struck silly by his response.

Lord Zhang? Who was that?

We killed them? With such a long distance between them? When did we kill them?

Could it be that Su Wen and the others killed him?

They offended someone and blamed it on us?

Thinking of Su Wen’s domineering personality, Wu Qiuhan believed that he would definitely do such a thing.

He quickly explained, “Don’t misunderstand. Although we’re all Zhou people with the Su family… we have nothing to do with each other!”

“Bullsh*t! If you’re a Zhou, then you’re a Zhou! Now that the Su Family has entered my Great Chu, they’re a member of our Chu Country. Don’t try to pull connections there! Hmph!”

The official turned around and left.

Wu Qiuhan could not do anything about it.

What could he do in their territory?

Even if he was the Prime Minister of the Great Zhou, he had to endure it!

Furthermore, he had a favor to ask.

Even Emperor Zhou’s attitude was extremely humble. He even let the princes and princesses follow on the envoy this time.

After pondering for a moment, Wu Qiuhan said to the few of them, “How about this? I’ll go with Lord Feng, and the Fifth Princess and the Sixth Prince will go together. We’ll each go to the streets and think of a way to obtain some information. Great Chu is too far away from our Zhou Country, and we don’t know anything about the situation here. We have to find out what’s happening, otherwise, I’m afraid we won’t be able to take a single step forward.”

“Okay!” Zhao Xuanxuan agreed.

The four of them immediately left the lodgings.

In the teahouse, Wu Qiuhan and Feng Baichuan found a table to sit at.

Immediately, they heard the surrounding discussions.

“That’s great! We won again! This Consort Nanli is simply the reincarnation of the God of War! She has never suffered any losses during this Eastern expedition. In a few days, I’m afraid Ji Luo will surrender!”

“Haha! That’s right. When the time comes, let General Yan beat up the Yan Country dogs. Our Great Chu will unite the world!”

“It’s really the blessing of the heavens that such a person has come to join my Great Chu. That Emperor of Zhou is definitely a fool!”

“Haha! That’s right!”

Wu Qiuhan and Feng Baichuan exchanged glances.

Nanli King Consort?

Yan Luoying remarried?

Wu Qiuhan couldn’t help but step forward. He cupped his hands and asked, “Everyone, this Nanli King Consort you’re talking about, is she called Yan Luoying?”

Those people were in the midst of chatting when they saw him disturbing them. They were rather displeased and said, “Of course, what else? Are you from Chu? You don’t even know this?”

Wu Qiuhan smiled and said, “I came from a foreign village. I’m really ignorant.”

He was also too embarrassed to say that he was the Prime Minister of the Great Zhou.

He asked again, “Then who is this Nanli King?”

When that person heard that he came from the countryside, he was even more disdainful. He casually said, “King Nanli is naturally Su Wen. Who else can it be? Country bumpkin, you don’t even know who’s the Nanli King.”

His words were like a bolt from the blue.

Wu Qiuhan froze on the spot.

Su Wen… Nanli King?

Was there a mistake?

That bastard had already been conferred the title of King in Great Chu?

By the side, Feng Baichuan’s jaw dropped as well.

This… is not a joke?

An alliance? Ally what?! The other party had a feud with Emperor Zhou!

Wasn’t this akin to a sheep entering a tiger’s den?

Think of that kid going back to Zhou to cause trouble…

Plus the fact that he was such a vengeful person…

In Zhou Country, he also acted with such a black heart and venomous hands.

This… what should they do?

Wu Qiuhan quickly returned to his seat and whispered to Feng Baichuan, “Lord Feng, I’m afraid we have to think of a way to escape from the Chu Country now. Otherwise, I’m afraid we’ll both be trapped here forever.”

Feng Baichuan deeply agreed and nodded. “That’s right.. If that Su Wen knows that we’re here, he won’t let us off! He’s already at the Heaven Rank now, so we won’t be able to survive!”
