Chapter 989: Niu Cuihua Really Had a Brother
Liu Hong, the first prince, said angrily, “Qin Haodong is now in collusion with the woman from the Ghost King Sect. Are you going to cover up for him?”
“His Highness is right. Since Qin Haodong is related to the Ghost King Sect’s person, we don’t have to hide anything for him,” Tu Jiaojiao said and secretly winked at the Little Witch.
Then, she said to the people present, “Qin Haodong once told us that he has the ability to teleport himself 50 kilometers away.
“However, this ability consumes a huge amount of Genuine Vitality, even at the cost of the Natal Genuine Vitality. Generally speaking, he will not use it unless there is no other choice.”
Li Mengyao said in disbelief, “Teleport himself 50 kilometers away? Is what you said true? I don’t think even a master at the stage of the Grand Completion Realm can do that.”
Tu Jiaojiao didn’t have a good impression of Li Mengyao and coldly said, “I’ve already told you. You can choose not to believe me.”
The Little Witch understood what Tu Jiaojiao was trying to do. She heaved a sigh of relief. Then, she said, “Believe it or not, we’ve already told you.”
From the bottom of her heart, Li Mengyao didn’t believe Tu Jiaojiao and the others. However, in addition to this kind of teleportation, she really couldn’t find a reason for the disappearance of Qin Haodong and Niu Cuihua.
After discussing with Liu Hong, she said to the people around her, “Expand the search area immediately. We must find them.”
Liu Hong said to the people from the four academies, “Everyone, I’m sorry. Such a big event happened today. The Ghost King Sect suddenly showed up, so the use of the Rosefinch Spiritual Spring will be suspended. Please go back first.”
No one objected to this. They all left.
The Little Witch said, “Sister Jiaojiao, you are so smart. You know how to distract them.”
Tu Jiaojiao said, “There’s no other way. You also know the shortcomings of the Seven Storeys Pagoda. If we don’t lure them away, there will be trouble when Haodong comes out.”
Murong Jinghong said worriedly, “I saw Haodong spitting out blood. We don’t know if his injury is serious. Is his life in danger?”
Yun Qianqian said, “He should be fine. His medical skills are so good. No one will disturb his recuperation there. He will recover from his injury soon.”
Luo Dongqing was confused. He asked, “What are you talking about? Why can’t I understand what you are saying?”
“It’s good that you don’t understand.”
The Little Witch certainly would not tell her grandpa Qin Haodong’s secret. She said, “When we are talking, you shouldn’t interrupt.”
“You wicked girl! How dare you!”
Luo Dongqing glared at the Little Witch. Then, he said to Tu Jiaojiao and the others, “You know where that boy went, right?”
These girls did not say anything and only nodded their heads.
He said again, “Very well. Since he is not in danger, let’s return to the Tortoise Academy first.”
The Little Witch cried, “No, we haven’t found my Little Brother yet. How can we go back?”
Luo Dongqing said angrily, “Do you think they’ll just let it go like this if they can’t find him? Those people will definitely spy on us. If you go and meet him now, not only will you be of no help, but you’ll also put him in danger.”
“I…”
The Little Witch wanted to retort, but she felt that her grandpa’s words sounded quite reasonable.
Tu Jiaojiao said, “The director is right. There’s nothing we can do here. On the contrary, we will make it easier for him to be found by the other party. Let’s go back to the Tortoise Academy first.”
After everyone had made up their minds, Murong Jinghong said to He Ziwei, “Miss He, at this point, we’ll have to go back to the Tortoise Kingdom first.”
He Ziwei asked worriedly, “Can you tell me where he is?”
Murong Jinghong said, “Sorry, I can’t do that. Even if I tell you, you wouldn’t be able to find him. You just need to know that he is safe now.”
“Well, I’ll see you again sometime.”
Although He Ziwei was worried about Qin Haodong, she had no choice but to bid farewell to them. She would return to the General Mansion.
Luo Dongqing flew in the direction of the Tortoise Academy with his students.
Qin Haodong passed out as soon as he entered the Seven Storeys Pagoda. The palm strike from a master at the stage of the Grand Completion Realm was extremely powerful. Although only the wind of this palm strike hit his back, it also caused him to sustain an extremely serious internal injury.
If Li Tiankuo’s palm had hit his back directly, he would be dead by now.
After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes and found that he was lying in the pagoda, while Niu Cuihua sat quietly beside him.
At this time, Niu Cuihua seemed to have recovered a lot from her injuries. Her beautiful face was clean. Her hair was carefully combed. She looked extremely beautiful.
However, Qin Haodong was surprised when he saw her. That was because there seemed to be something different about Niu Cuihua. Her body exuded a powerful momentum and her eyes were alert.
“You’re awake?” Niu Cuihua looked at him in a strange manner and said.
“Ah…”
Qin Haodong moved slightly. He felt pain all over his body. His internal injury had not healed yet.
Niu Cuihua looked at him playfully and said, “Hubby, when will you marry me?”
Looking at her eyes, Qin Haodong’s heart sank. He exclaimed, “Have you regained your memory?”
At the same time, he also realized what was going on. At the end of the battle, she had swallowed the green flower of the Spirit Reviving Grass, which had healed her damaged Spirit and helped her regain her memory.
Niu Cuihua said, “I didn’t expect you to be so good at play-acting. You said that I am your wife and you are my husband. Moreover, you took advantage of me. Do you think I should kill you now?”
After that, the momentum she exuded became more powerful and she became the First Elder of the Ghost King Sect again.
Qin Haodong was shocked. What he worried about still happened. He quickly ran the Genuine Qi in his body.
Unfortunately, his internal injury had not healed yet. He spat out another mouthful of blood because he tried to run his Genuine Qi.
Seeing that he had spat out blood, Niu Cuihua quickly said with concern, “Hubby, are you okay? I was just kidding. Have a good rest. Don’t aggravate your internal injury.”
“Ah? Kidding?” Qin Haodong wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, looked at her in surprise, and said, “You haven’t regained your memory?”
Niu Cuihua helped him to lie down slowly and then said, “I have regained my memory. I remember that you were caught by me from the Tortoise Kingdom. I originally wanted to obtain the method to quickly improve my cultivation, but my Spirit was damaged by you.”
Qin Haodong said in surprise, “Then, you still?”
In his heart, he had been pretending to be her husband during this period of time and had kissed her several times.
Generally speaking, the First Elder should have flown into a rage and would have killed him. However, it didn’t look like that was the case right now.
Niu Cuihua sighed and sat down next to him. “Although I have regained my memories of the past, I still remember the time spent with you.
“In the past, I would definitely kill you, but now…”
At this point, she turned to look at Qin Haodong. “Do you love me or not?”
“I…”
Qin Haodong didn’t know how to answer for a moment. He didn’t know what kind of feeling he had for Niu Cuihua.
“You could disregard your own life for me at a crucial moment. Even if you didn’t answer this question, I already know the answer.”
A strange smile appeared on Niu Cuihua’s face. “Fate makes fools of people. The relationship between us will not be accepted by people because I am from Ghost King Sect and you are from the Tortoise Academy.
“I had always thought that I would not fall in love with any man. However, after meeting you, I fell in love with you completely. Although I have regained my memory now, there are some things that can’t be changed.
“Whether I admit it or not, whether I have the previous memory or not, you are the only man I have ever called hubby, the only man I have ever kissed, and the only man I have ever loved. What’s more, I still love you now.”
Qin Haodong listened quietly. A strong sense of love rose in his heart.
He found that he had also fallen in love with this woman. However, his love had been suppressed by fear of the First Elder of the Ghost King Sect. Thus, he had not realized his love for her until then.
Niu Cuihua looked at him again and said, “There is a tradition in my hometown that women will never remarry. They will never fall in love with two men in their lives.
“Now I have two choices. Kill you, or let you be my husband. What do you think I will do?”
Qin Haodong said, “Since you said that, I guess you’ve already made up your mind.”
“You have more women and understand a girl’s mind very well.” Niu Cuihua reached out and touched his cheek and said, “Facing those people from the Dragon Academy and the others, I was willing to die for you.
“Although I remember the past memories now, I will still die for you. You are still the person I love the most. How can I kill you?
“In that case, I can only let you be my husband. Unfortunately, your health is too bad now. Hurry up and recover.”
“Uh…”
Qin Haodong’s heart was full of gratitude. His expression became excited at the same time. His eyes wandered all over Niu Cuihua’s sexy figure.
“You mean, as long as my injury is healed, we can…”
Niu Cuihua blushed and said, “You rejected me when I was ready to sleep with you last time. I must seize this opportunity.”
Qin Haodong took her hand and said, “I was afraid that you would regret it and kill me after you regained your memory.”
Niu Cuihua said, “Now you don’t even have a chance to feel any regret.”
After that, they recuperated in the pagoda together. Three days later, the injuries on their bodies were completely healed.
Qin Haodong took Niu Cuihua’s hands and said, “Do you think those people are still waiting outside?”
Although three days had passed, he did not dare to go out at will. If he fell into the hands of Li Tianxiong and others again, he would not be able to escape easily.
“I don’t care about them. Anyway, I can’t wait any longer,” Niu Cuihua said and pressed Qin Haodong under her body. “No matter what happens outside or in the future, I want you to be my real husband now.
“Otherwise, I will suffer a big loss if you run away again one day. Although I have a husband, I am not a real woman…”
After that, she waved her hand. Soon, they were both naked. Then, they…
After a long while, in the pagoda, Qin Haodong held Niu Cuihua tightly in his arms.
“By the way, you haven’t told me your name yet?”
Niu Cuihua leaned on his chest and said, “You have already given me a name, Niu Cuihua!”
“Uh… That’s not a good name, is it? It’s a bit old-fashioned and doesn’t suit you. What was your previous name?”
Qin Haodong just said this name casually at that time and for fun. He did not expect that the First Elder of the Ghost King Sect would become his woman.
Niu Cuihua said, “I think this name is very good. It has a special meaning for us. I won’t change it. Niu Cuihua is my name.”
“Okay!” Qin Haodong said helplessly. “What are you going to do? Will you return to the Ghost King Sect in the future?”
Niu Cuihua said, “Why do you ask? Are you trying to get rid of me? You’re tired of me already?”
Qin Haodong said, “No, I’m just worried that your identity will affect our relationship.”
“Of course,” Niu Cuihua said. “I’m afraid my brother won’t approve of our marriage.”
Qin Haodong said, “Stop it. You don’t have a brother. I made it up.”
Niu Cuihua raised her head, looked at him playfully and said, “You’re right. I do have a brother, Li Tianxing, the sect master of the Ghost King Sect.”
