My Wife is A Sword God

Chapter 192: The Embarrassing Book

In a wing room of the Qin residence…

Due to the infection of a considerable amount of fire poison, Lan Ningshuang was still a little weak even after being cured by her Brother-In-Law.

Therefore, she did not practice controlling her Qi at the lake pavilion. Instead, she returned to her room early and lay on the bed.

However, she didn’t rest directly; instead, she lay on the bed and read books.

Sometimes her brows would furrow, sometimes she would reveal a shocked expression, sometimes a tender look, and sometimes she would shyly close her eyes, continuing to read between the slits.

These books were sent to her by Qing’er and the maids in the mansion, saying it would help pass the time when she felt bored.

And it was these books that opened a new door for her.

“I thought Granny Liu from the Liu family had seen and known enough, but I didn’t expect there to be so much in these books. Can women who aren’t familiar with the martial arts really do such things?” Lan Ningshuang muttered softly with flushed cheeks.

When she immersed herself in such thoughts, the figure of her brother-in-law involuntarily appeared in her mind.

As if superimposing her brother-in-law onto the male characters in those books didn’t feel abrupt at all.

He was as handsome and talented, with the same wit and humor.

When Lan Ningshuang thought like this, she had already brought herself into the world of those books and became even more fascinated.

Just as she was engrossed, the door of the room suddenly pushed open, startling Lan Ningshuang. She hurriedly stuffed the book she was holding under the pillow and pulled the quilt over.

However, she forgot that there were several other books she had read and not put away on the bed.

Due to the force of pulling the quilt, these books fell to the ground, pages flipping open.

Some could only see the text, which was fine.

But some had illustrations, and the scenes were too beautiful.

“Ningshaung, are you feeling better?” Liu Jianli stepped into the room and asked softly.

She had known Lan Ningshuang since childhood, although the latter was her sword attendant, they were like sisters.

Therefore, there wasn’t much restraint when they were usually together.

Seeing no one at the lakeside pavilion, Liu Jianli knew that Lan Ningshuang should be in the room and came to check on her.

“Miss.” Lan Ningshuang, covering her lips with the quilt, blushed intensely, as if water could drip from her face.

She dared not speak loudly, and her gaze was somewhat evasive.

Glancing at the books scattered on the ground, she felt extremely embarrassed, regretting being so absorbed that she didn’t hear any movement outside the room.

Otherwise, with her sixth-grade martial prowess, how could she not have noticed someone coming?

Liu Jianli looked at Lan Ningshuang, only to see her abnormally red face. “Are you not completely recovered? Should I call him over?”

The “him” naturally referred to Qin Feng.

Lan Ningshuang was shocked at the words and hurriedly said, “Miss, there’s no need. I’m perfectly fine; it’s just that the quilt is a bit thick and hot.”

If her brother-in-law knew she was reading these books, she would die of shame.

Liu Jianli’s fair ears twitched slightly. “Your heart is also beating fast. Are you really okay? I’ll go find him to be on the safe side.”

“Miss, I’m really fine. There’s no need to trouble Brother-in-law,” Lan Ningshuang said, lifting the quilt. Her tone even carried a hint of pleading.

Liu Jianli stared at her for a moment, then lowered her head to look at the books on the ground.

She walked over, picked up one of them named “Ten Miles of Red Wedding,” and casually flipped through the first few pages.

It was about a noble lady who fell in love with a man from the Demon Slaying Department.

The beginning was uneventful, mostly text describing the process of their acquaintance, understanding, and love.

Especially when the man returned triumphant after slaying demons outside the city and confessed his feelings to the woman, the style of writing seemed a bit off.

Especially the illustrations next to the pages were simply…

Liu Jianli closed the book. In the candlelight of the room, her cheeks took on a blush, making her look quite charming.

“Ningshaung, these books…” she hesitated.

“Miss, these books aren’t mine. Qing’er and the others left them for me to pass the time. I haven’t read much, and you came so quickly.” Lan Ningshuang explained, lacking confidence.

“Is your condition strange because of reading these?” Liu Jianli asked softly.

“Miss, please don’t say anything more. I just wanted to teach Miss some ways to get along with my Brother-in-law by reading these.” Lan Ningshuang explained palely.

Actually, there was a sentence she hadn’t spoken yet. She wanted to understand more in advance, after all, perhaps, it might be useful in the future?

Liu Jianli made a gesture with her right hand, and the books on the ground flew onto the table, neatly stacked.

For a fourth-tier warrior, controlling inner energy was effortless.

She sat down beside the bed, wanting to speak but hesitating.

In this silence, Lan Ningshuang wished she could bury herself in the quilt due to embarrassment.

It wasn’t until Liu Jianli spoke again, sounding puzzled, “Why did the girl in the book do that? It’s different from what you said earlier.”

Lan Ningshuang blushed and said, “Perhaps that way…”

“Oh, I see.” Liu Jianli nodded slightly and then stood up, saying, “Ningshuang, rest well. I’ll leave first.”

When she left, she did not put down the book in her hand.

The shy Lan Ningshuang did not notice this. After the door to the room closed again, she quickly got up, collected all the books on the table, and vowed not to read them again.

About an incense stick’s worth of time later, she lay on the bed again, holding the books and reading with relish.

“Brother-in-law~”

“Sneeze.” Qin Feng rubbed his nose and asked curiously, “Could it be a cold?”

After the sealing of the demon’s breath, Jinyang City also returned to the coldness that it should have in winter.

Qin Feng wrapped himself in black clothes, examining the Divine Sea.

The residual soul of the demon was obviously injured. Under the blockade of the Five Thunders, there was no movement, just curled up quietly.

He glanced at the faint purple gas in the Divine Sea; it was the refined Literature Qi.

And he could clearly feel that these faint purple Literature Qi’s had an indescribable momentum.

Thinking of the old man’s display of pure energy, Qin Feng speculated that perhaps these faint purple Literature Qi’s were Righteous Qi.

After all, the book also mentioned that different scholars, due to different opportunities, could refine different Righteous Qi’s.

Some people, because they used a fire-type visualization, refined Righteous Qi that was like blazing fire.

If he used the Five Thunder visualization, the refined Righteous Qi would be pale purple, which made sense.

“I wonder if I can invoke this faint purple Righteous Qi?” Qin Feng stroked his chin, then took out a white glove from the Spatial Ring.

After putting it on, he opened the window.

With a thought, the faint purple Righteous Qi in the Divine Sea continuously flowed into the White Thunder Formation on the inside of the glove.

Although the White Thunder Formation needed to be activated by Literature Qi, Righteous Qi, as the product of Literature Qi refinement, could naturally be used.

When all the Righteous Qi in the Divine Sea flowed into the formation, arcs of lightning surged on the white glove?

Qin Feng widened his eyes, then saw a purple light shoot straight into the sky!
