The Sweet Life of Superstar and His Goddess Wife

Chapter 443: Herbal Supplement (Fifth Update)

This is possible too? Jiang Nuo was secretly amazed, thinking he might be a bit naive.He only knew that women could absorb power, but men too?! And specifically for that purpose...

Jiang Nuo glanced at Mu Qiuniang.

Mu Qiuniang didn’t find it strange at all.

Several hundred years ago in the Cultivation World, this was a common thing. The strong were revered, and it didn’t matter if you were a man or a woman. As long as you were powerful, people would try all sorts of ways to please and get close to you.

These furnaces raised by families to please the powerful were never in short supply.

"Tch! Just a furnace!" Lei Qianhua sneered sarcastically, "Nowadays, men have become like this? To please women, they not only sell their bodies but also their cultivation? It’s because of people like you that this world has so many broken families and estranged couples..."

"Young Master Lei, do you think you’re so noble by saying that? Weren’t you also sent as a gift by your family? How much more noble are you?" someone retorted.

"Hmph! I wasn’t sent by my family; I volunteered. A man like me, beautiful and wise, deserves only the strongest woman in this world." Lei Qianhua raised his chin, full of pride.

"But someone has to be interested in you first!" someone pointed out.

"I’m the most handsome man in the Cultivation World, how could she not be interested in me?" Lei Qianhua looked especially smugly towards Mu Qiuniang, pointedly saying, "Moreover, I’m the most favored young master of the Lei Family, the biggest family in the Cultivation World. Any woman who marries me is achieving the pinnacle of her life."

"Sorry, my wife is already above the pinnacle of life!" Jiang Nuo said, "Besides, my wife already has a pretty boy; I only reached the pinnacle of life by holding onto my wife’s coattails."

Lei Qianhua’s eyes widened.

Mu Qiuniang certainly didn’t accept these men from the courtyard. Even if Jiang Nuo hadn’t said it, she wouldn’t have accepted them.

That day, the couple merely wanted to show their stance, letting them know that no matter who they were, they weren’t planning to accept them. If they left on their own, it would look better for everyone; if they weren’t willing to leave, they could wait for her Nascent Soul ceremony and then leave together with everyone else.

Lei Qianhua’s eyes widened in disbelief: "You’re actually going to send me away?"

"Such a handsome man like me, and you’re sending me away?"

"Sorry, my wife doesn’t like your kind; she’s into my kind." Jiang Nuo’s grin revealed his white teeth.

Lei Qianhua was furious, his eyes turning red: "It was you, wasn’t it? You spoke ill of me, didn’t you? How could you do that? I truly wanted to marry the Fairy and live a good life with her. How could you do this to me?"

"I also truly want to live a good life with my wife. I’m merely defending my rightful position, not wanting a third party to disrupt my relationship with my wife."

"But you’re not worthy of the Fairy."

"Whether I’m worthy or not doesn’t seem to be for you to decide, does it?" Jiang Nuo felt a bit helpless. Why did these people always like to meddle in his and his wife’s affairs?

"It’s not for me to decide, but I think none of us here believes you’re worthy of the Fairy, right?" Lei Qianhua said, looking around.

As Lei Qianhua looked over, the surrounding men couldn’t help but take a step back.

"Why are you all avoiding it? Can you swear you don’t think that way? Talking so much behind people’s backs, but when seeing the real person, you don’t dare to speak?" Lei Qianhua mocked.

No one responded.

"With you like this, do you really think the Fairy would consider you?" Lei Qianhua snorted disdainfully, turning to Jiang Nuo, "It doesn’t matter if they won’t admit it. Anyway, that’s what I think. Do you dare to duel with me to prove who’s truly worthy of the Fairy?"

"So whoever wins is worthy of my wife?" Jiang Nuo found it somewhat amusing.

"Yes! Do you dare?"

"Why wouldn’t I dare? It’s just that, my wife is already my wife. Why should I accept such a duel? Even if you win, my wife can’t possibly become yours."

Lei Qianhua was unsatisfied: "Why not? It proves I’m more worthy of the Fairy. Only someone worthy has the right to stand beside her. If you don’t even have the dueling ability, what right do you have to stand by the Fairy’s side?"

As a man, how could Jiang Nuo not care about others thinking he’s unworthy of his wife? Shouldn’t everyone think there is no more matched couple than him and his wife in this world?

He turned his head to ask Mu Qiuniang: "Wife, should I entertain them for a bit?" He wasn’t willing to treat his wife like a prize to be competed for.

Mu Qiuniang could easily see through him, knowing that his male pride was acting up, so she said, "Sure! Just play around, don’t take it seriously!"

"Wife, you’re so good!" Jiang Nuo held Mu Qiuniang’s small hand and gave it a kiss. Then he turned to Lei Qianhua and said, "I can compete with you, but my wife said it’s just for fun, not serious. Besides, my wife is priceless to me, and even if a duel is necessary, I wouldn’t use my wife as a wager. How about this: if I win, you willingly leave Hidden Immortal Sect and never appear before me again; if I lose, I’ll never appear before you again. How about that?"

Lei Qianhua was a bit unhappy: "What good is it if you don’t appear in front of me? I want the Fairy, not you."

Jiang Nuo shrugged, "I don’t care. If you’re unwilling, then it’s fine. It’s getting late, I still have to have lunch with my wife. Let’s chat some other time."

"Hey, wait a minute." Lei Qianhua gritted his teeth, "Fine, let’s compete. I’ll show the Fairy with my strength that only I am worthy of her in this world!"

As he said this, he glanced at Mu Qiuniang with such determination and resolve that it truly garnered admiration.

Jiang Nuo laughed, "We’ll talk after the competition results are out! By the way, if any of you are interested, you can also challenge me. After all, solving one problem is solving a problem; solving a group of people is also solving a problem."

He was used to showing a bit of strength to let these people who didn’t know the heights of heaven realize — Jiang Nuo is not someone you can easily mess with!

Hmph! Did they really think he was a pushover, easy to squash?

Jiang Nuo even agreed on a time and place for the duel before leaving with Mu Qiuniang.

Afterward, Jiang Nuo jokingly asked Mu Qiuniang if she would be angry about his duel with others.

Mu Qiuniang shook her head, "Nothing to be angry about!" Several hundred years ago, it wasn’t uncommon for men to fight over a woman. Back in those days, even her senior sister had several suitors who fiercely fought outside the sect, causing a mess. In the end, their master got angry and threw them out, banning them from approaching the Hidden Immortal Sect for a hundred years.
