Chapter 594: This Woman Is Truly Heartless

What a pity that such a good girl like Chunxing is getting married tonight, and she’ll be claimed by another man, giving birth to his children.

Yang Cheng shook his head to clear his mind of stray thoughts.

He had agreed to act only as the Enlightenment Master, so he couldn’t really develop feelings for the bride, or Hidden Cloud Village would be in chaos.

He walked into the cave and set Kong Lingwen down on the ground, his eyes sweeping around the place.

Kong Lingwen thought he might leap at her like a hungry wolf and tear off her clothes, but instead, he kept staring around, seemingly searching for something.

"What are you looking for?"

"Looking for the Purifying Spirit Spring."

Although he had already obtained the Purifying Spirit Spring, he couldn’t shake off a doubt in his heart.

That day Yun Chan said she came to the cave originally worried he might go up the mountain to steal the Purifying Spirit Spring but accidentally saw him and Kong Lingwen entwined.

So, it seemed the Purifying Spirit Spring was on the mountain, certainly near the cave, maybe even inside it.

But he had explored the cave early on, checked all around, and found only a slight presence of Spiritual Energy from the mountain forest, far from abundant energy.

The Purifying Spirit Spring was a treasure; the Spiritual Energy it emitted should be very dense, and with his cultivation, he should be able to sense it.

He paced inside the cave, stopping at intervals to examine each spot.

At this moment, hurried footsteps sounded from outside, and Yun Chan rushed in, panting: "Yang Cheng, what are you doing on the mountain?"

"Village Chief Yun came really fast. I’m just curious about where the Purifying Spirit Spring is, and why I can’t sense it at all."

Yang Cheng answered truthfully; there was no point in being vague since Yun Chan would guess his purpose anyway.

"I’ve already agreed to give you the Purifying Spirit Spring in batches, so there’s no need for you to seek out its location. Otherwise, I’ll suspect you’re being greedy and wish to claim all the Purifying Spirit Spring for yourself."

Yun Chan’s gaze became vigilant, and True Qi emanated from her body.

Everyone in the village valued the Purifying Spirit Spring highly, and Yun Chan, as the village chief, especially had the responsibility to protect it.

"Don’t get excited; I’m truly just curious, I never thought about monopolizing the Purifying Spirit Spring."

Yang Cheng hurried to reassure her; he knew the Purifying Spirit Spring could enhance cultivation, but he wouldn’t forcibly demand it, just getting some to cure Ni Qingyao would be enough.

Seeing the sincerity in his eyes, Yun Chan withdrew her True Qi and replied, "A hundred years ago, someone ascended the mountain to search for the Purifying Spirit Spring, intending to claim it for themselves, killed many in Hidden Cloud Village, and it was only because the village chief at the time desperately defended it that those bad people were all killed."

"Afterwards, to prevent the Purifying Spirit Spring from falling into those hands, he used a Magic Artifact to hide the spring’s aura, so except for village chiefs through the generations, no one knows where it is."

Yang Cheng understood her meaning; if he had the intention to monopolize the Purifying Spirit Spring, there was no need to trouble the villagers, since only she knew.

And as the village chief, she would die before revealing this secret.

"I understand. Let’s go down the mountain now and try not to come here again in the future."

With that, Yang Cheng took Kong Lingwen’s hand and descended the mountain.

He felt a bit uncomfortable about it; he had done so much for Hidden Cloud Village, yet hadn’t won Yun Chan’s trust, she even considered opposing him.

This woman is truly heartless!

Back at Da Shan’s house, Yang Cheng fell asleep, since he hadn’t slept the previous night and needed to restore his energy for the Enlightenment tonight.

"Brother Cen, come out for dinner quickly, or you’ll miss the Enlightenment."

Da Shan pounded on the door, waking Yang Cheng up, who realized it was already evening when he turned over to get up.

"I’m not eating; if I miss the timing, the girl marrying into her husband’s family will be looked down upon."

Over the past couple of days, Yang Cheng had carefully learned about the customs of Hidden Cloud Village; Enlightenment had many rules, and if the Enlightenment Master didn’t value the bride, her life wouldn’t be good after marrying, as she’d be considered inauspicious.

Since he decided to be the Enlightenment Master, he had to make sure each bride was satisfied and happy in her marriage.

As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Cheng rushed out, and upon reaching the bride’s house, he saw a crowd of men and women gathered at the entrance, all eager to see the event.

"Little Divine Doctor, you finally came; if you delay any longer, you’ll miss the auspicious time."

The bride’s mother was anxious and grabbed his arm to hurry him along.

Taking in the crowd at the door, Yang Cheng halted his steps and said, "Why did everyone come tonight? Hurry home to your wives, kids, and warm beds, what’s the use of coming to watch the fun."

Last night, it was just some aunties and married women gathering to watch; tonight there were even more young men, crowding the bride’s door tightly.

Although he thought of himself as thick-skinned, the thought of so many people outside watching the excitement made him unable to concentrate on his work.

"Little Divine Doctor, I heard everyone say you didn’t stop all night yesterday, even making Chunxing faint, so I came to see if it’s true."

A tall and sturdy man laughed, full of curiosity.

"Yeah, Little Divine Doctor. If we hadn’t seen it with our own eyes, we wouldn’t believe the stories from Auntie Pang and the others."

Everyone egged him on, urging Yang Cheng to hurry inside.

The bride’s mother approached and held his arm, softly persuading, "Little Divine Doctor, rest assured, everyone understands the rules and won’t disturb you. Pretend they aren’t here; after a while, I’ll send them away, so they won’t affect you."

The village had such rules, and Yang Cheng had no choice but to compromise, turning to head indoors.

"Wait, Little Divine Doctor, drink this first."

The bride’s mother handed him a cup, and Yang Cheng glanced down at it, quickly waving his hand, "I’m not drinking aphrodisiac baijiu."

"I specially got this from Nanny Chunxing; just drink it."

An auntie softly coaxed, smiling at him.

Pushed to drink, Yang Cheng reluctantly took the cup and drank it all at once, though as he turned around, he spat it out.

He was already strong in that aspect, and if he drank aphrodisiac baijiu, he’d be even more fierce. Moreover, tonight, the girl was just sixteen, the youngest of all the brides; it’s better to show restraint.

Seeing him stride into the house, the bride’s mother immediately closed the door, while the crowd gathered to listen at the walls.

The villagers were understanding enough to even breathe lightly, afraid of disrupting the two’s emotional exchange.

Not long after, the cries and sobs of a young girl came from the room, and Yang Cheng patiently comforted her, finally calming her down.

The big bed began to shake vigorously, accompanied by the girl’s painful, fragmented moans.

The affair lasted for over half an hour before Yang Cheng released and gently wrapped his arms around the girl’s slender waist.

The girl had a slim figure, and her bosom hadn’t fully developed, just a small swell.

Having tasted the fullness of Chunxing last night, tonight’s experience with a slender girl was entirely different, but he still preferred Chunxing.
