The next day, Chen Xuan got up early and pulled Xiao Hongmei to do exercises together.

"My lord, I am so tired, please, please spare me!"

Upon hearing Xiao Hongmei's pleas for mercy, Chen Xuan's lips curled up slightly, and a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes.

He said softly, "How can this be, my wife? Exercising is of utmost importance; we must persevere." Although Xiao Hongmei was already panting heavily, encouraged by Chen Xuan, she gritted her teeth and continued exercising.

After some time, Xiao Hongmei finally finished her morning exercise. She collapsed to the ground, and Chen Xuan gently picked her up and carried her into the room.

Chen Xuan placed Xiao Hongmei on the bed and gently massaged her tired body. Xiao Hongmei felt Chen Xuan's tenderness and her heart was filled with happiness.

"You, you're just a troublemaker, you jerk!"

"Hehe, this is nothing." Chen Xuan grinned mischievously, but his hands didn't stop moving. "Look at your figure, tsk tsk tsk... if you don't exercise, you'll really turn into a haggard old woman!"

"I'm a cultivator, how could I possibly become a haggard old woman!"

Xiao Hongmei was furious with him, but she couldn't break free, so she could only glare at him fiercely.

Chen Xuan suddenly hugged her tightly and whispered in her ear, "Alright, madam, I know you've worked hard. How about I make you something delicious to nourish you later?"

Xiao Hongmei's expression softened a bit, and she said reproachfully, "That's more like it."

After finishing their exercise, the two went to the dojo's kitchen to make breakfast together. Although it was a simple meal of delicacies, it was filled with a warm and cozy atmosphere.

"My lord, when...when will we leave this place?"

After a night of conversation, Xiao Hongmei learned about Chen Xuan's experiences over the past few days and knew that his purpose in coming here was to take her away.

"No rush, I haven't fulfilled my promise to you yet."

"A promise? What promise? I don't remember it."

Chen Xuan leaned down and whispered something in Xiao Hongmei's ear, causing her cheeks to turn increasingly red, even to the point of bleeding.

"No, no, no, it's too dangerous. I... I don't want your promise anymore. Anyway... it's just not going to work. You're such a bad guy!"

Chen Xuan gently kissed Xiao Hongmei's earlobe and whispered, "Trust me, everything will be alright."

Xiao Hongmei's heart pounded even faster. She knew that once Chen Xuan made up his mind, it would be hard to change it, but she was still worried about her and his safety.

"I...I'm completely bewitched!"

After saying that, Xiao Hongmei stormed off in a huff.

That evening, Zhang Wei was invited to Xiao Hongmei's Taoist temple.

"Madam, what brings you here so late at night?" Zhang Wei looked at the stunning Xiao Hongmei, a burning desire flashing in his eyes.

"How much of your luck and peach blossom luck do you have left?"

"Um... well, there's none left." A hint of embarrassment flashed across Zhang Wei's face.

Three months have passed, and the few peach trees that Chen Xuan gave them back then have long been eaten up by their family members.

"Hmph, I knew it!" Xiao Hongmei said sternly.

"If it weren't for the fact that I had some savings through our relationship and our child, my husband and I wouldn't have gained as much as those old fogies! What kind of clan leader are you?!"

"this......"

"Now that Chen Xuan has been kidnapped by the people of that White Tiger Empire, we have no way to obtain any more luck or romantic opportunities!"

Zhang Wei remained silent.

"Never mind, I still have plenty of peach blossoms on hand. I'll keep them for the child, but you can have these!"

With a gentle wave of her hand, Xiao Hongmei conjured several green peach blossoms on the table.

"this......"

"Just take it. Do you think I'd let an outsider get this benefit?"

"Then I will accept it with humility!" Zhang Wei didn't hesitate; since Xiao Hongmei had given it to him, he would accept it.

"Eat one now to increase your luck, so that we can both pursue the Great Dao together!"

Zhang Wei's eyes lit up instantly.

He picked up a peach blossom of good fortune and put it in his mouth to chew. Instantly, a mysterious aura spread through his body, and he felt his fortune continuously increasing.

However, unbeknownst to him, all of this was being observed by a mysterious figure. A barely perceptible smile played on the mysterious figure's lips as he secretly plotted his next move...

At the same time, Xiao Hongmei also ate a luck-enhancing peach blossom. However, her complexion became extremely rosy, making her look incredibly beautiful.

"Madam, shall we now..."

"Don't rush, absorb the power of the Peach Blossom Luck first!"

"Yes, I was too hasty. I'll absorb it right away!" Zhang Wei said, and then began to meditate.

Just sitting down made him feel light and airy, as if he were about to ascend to heaven.

Upon seeing this, Chen Xuan slowly emerged from the shadows.

"You, you're a complete bastard! How did I fall for your trick..." Xiao Hongmei saw Chen Xuan slowly approaching her, and then looked at Zhang Wei, who was deeply cultivating, and felt like she was about to lose her balance.

It's the second day again.

Zhang Wei slowly woke up from the ground.

"What am I doing..." He was stunned for a moment, then remembered everything that happened last night!

"Damn it! How did I get so engrossed in my cultivation? This is bad, Hongmei is definitely going to be angry!"

Zhang Wei immediately got up, went to Xiao Hongmei's room, and gently knocked on the door.

Zhang Wei waited anxiously for Xiao Hongmei to open the door, his mind already prepared with all sorts of apologies, but the door remained closed.
