It was simply thrilling; the white waves of air were right underfoot, ready to rush up at any mont. anwhile, his wife was holding his waist and flying rapidly outward, at a speed like riding a rocket.
In just a few seconds, Jiang Nuo didn’t even have ti to daydream, instinctively holding onto his wife’s waist, screaming, "Ah..."
"Stop screaming!"
A familiar voice ca to his ear. Only then did Jiang Nuo open his eyes and take a look around. They were already off the ground, and his wife had taken him high into the sky. What he was standing on looked familiar—was it his wife’s Divine Pen?
"Wife, thank you, you saved again!" Jiang Nuo was still a bit shaken from the explosion, "But, wife, didn’t you say that the defensive shield you set up couldn’t be broken by anyone below Golden Core stage? Then what was that just now?"
"Self-detonation."
"Self-detonation?!" Seriously?! Just to kill him, they even resorted to self-detonation?!
Jiang Nuo suddenly realized that his wife had ntioned before that the defensive mode could completely ignore those with a cultivation below Golden Core. However, there’s an exception, which is self-detonation.
Because it is done at the cost of one’s life, even a small Foundation Establishnt expert’s self-detonation is incredibly powerful. Even a Golden Core expert wouldn’t dare underestimate it.
Mu Qiuniang glanced at him, "Now do you realize how dangerous it was just now?" Had she not always felt uneasy, couldn’t resist running over to "sneak a peek," he would indeed have been in big trouble.
She was at the Golden Core stage, plus the Divine Pen, making her escape skills top-notch. But could he, a re Foundation Establishnt expert, outrun a cultivator’s self-detonation? And one of them had a cultivation two levels higher than his.
Back in the day, she only dared to challenge those one level higher than her, but he relied on the defensive capabilities she refined to dare challenge experts two levels above him.
Of course, it was fortunate that in this era, there were no great talents, particularly those who refined all sorts of rare treasures, so the things she made could still be presentable.
If she encountered that artifact refining senior brother of hers from before, any random thing from him could break her defensive magical artifact.
Yes, not only break the defense but directly destroy the defensive magical artifact. If the artifact breaks, doesn’t the defense break too?
Her senior brother’s approach was just that straightforward.
"Wife, I’m sorry, I really forgot about this matter." He just thought of setting up a barrier to keep the other party from escaping, without imagining that when they couldn’t run, they’d resort to self-detonation to take him down with them.
Sigh... Isn’t it said that it’s better to live shalessly than to die gloriously? They were really ruthless, enough to be so hard on themselves.
"In the future, no matter what you’re doing, always leave a little room for maneuver. Otherwise, if sothing really happens to you and I can’t save you in ti, it’ll really be too late!"
"I know, I’ll be more careful in the future, wife, I was wrong!" Jiang Nuo readily admitted his mistake. Especially since he knew his wife was concerned for him, he had no hesitation in admitting his error.
This incident was a wake-up call for him. No matter how seemingly impregnable the defense, there’s always a possibility of being breached. He can’t rely on the defensive magical artifact Mu Qiuniang refined for him and let his guard down, arrogantly thinking that no one can harm him.
Perhaps this person can’t harm him, but what about the next one?
Mu Qiuniang took Jiang Nuo back to the hotel.
"Wife, are you staying tonight?" Jiang Nuo, still covered in wounds, was still up to no good, starting to affectionately cling to Mu Qiuniang.
"Stop it! You’re still injured, take a Revitalizing Pill first, wash up in the bathroom, and then we can talk."
"Okay, okay, wife, you’re staying tonight, right?" Jiang Nuo didn’t move right away, insisting on getting a guarantee from Mu Qiuniang.
Mu Qiuniang felt a bit helpless, "You have filming tomorrow; I have a match, soone self-detonated, and it’s not just one of them. With such a commotion, I still need to deal with it."
"I don’t want to do anything, just haven’t seen you in several days. I want a hug!" Jiang Nuo looked innocent.
Mu Qiuniang: "..." So, she had misunderstood?
After Jiang Nuo went for a bath, Mu Qiuniang took out her phone.
Who should she call?
Logically, Gong Leitian was the best to handle this, but...
Mu Mingyu is abroad now; she can’t have him return to handle this, right?
If it were a small matter, then maybe, but for sothing like self-detonation, which causes such a big disturbance, it still needs to be handled.
Mu Qiuniang dialed Gong Leitian’s number.
"Master Aunt, it’s so late, is there sothing you need?" Gong Leitian answered the call imdiately. To be precise, he had been waiting for her call.
"A few n in black attacked Jiang Nuo, and I forced them to self-detonate. I don’t want to be disturbed, so I hope you can handle it."
"No problem! I’ll just inform the Cultivation Alliance when the ti cos. But, Master Aunt, aren’t you abroad? How co you’re with the Grandmaster at this ti?" Gong Leitian stood up from his office chair, went to the window, used his index finger to pull apart the slats of the blinds, looked at the night scene outside, and asked.
"I sensed your Grandmaster might have so issues, so I ca back impulsively. That’s all, I’ll hang up now!"
"Alright then, take care, Master Aunt, goodbye!"
After hanging up, Gong Leitian’s expression was a bit somber.
Similarly, Mu Qiuniang’s expression was also sowhat heavy.
"Wife, what’s wrong?" Jiang Nuo ca out of the bath and saw her like this, looking a bit puzzled.
"Nothing!" Mu Qiuniang gave him a faint smile.
"Wife, when you smile, you’re really beautiful!" Jiang Nuo was dazzled, happily kissed the corner of her mouth, "Luckily you don’t smile all the ti, nor often at others, or else you’d attract so many rivals in love for ? Hehehehe... Wife, I’ve cleaned up, let’s sleep together?"
Full of anticipation.
"Didn’t you just say you only wanted a hug?"
"Yes, just a hug!" Jiang Nuo blinked innocently, "Hugging to sleep, or else, what did you think? Hehehehe... Wife, your mind is getting dirty!"
"Where are your hands going?" Mu Qiuniang glanced at the hand trying to sneak into her clothes.
"Wife, I’ve undressed all clean; surely, you should too, so we can stick together tightly. It’s very comfortable. Really, I promise!"
Mu Qiuniang: She didn’t need such a promise, did she?
As they chatted, Jiang Nuo pinned her down on the bed and stripped her. And then the one who promised just a hug started doing things that weren’t just hugs.
Mu Qiuniang: "Didn’t you just say it was only going to be a hug?"
"Wife, this is a hug!" Jiang Nuo laughed mischievously as he started to feast.
Soon, the room was filled with ambiguous breathing. Mu Qiuniang was too busy to care about soone not keeping their word, tossed around like a fish in hot oil by a certain soone.
