Chapter 278: 142. Lin Xiao carelessly lost three lives! She surprisingly won in the end! (Seeking subscriptions and monthly tickets)_2
A steward reported from outside, "Chairman! Chief Lin from Divine Phoenix Peak is here to visit!"
"What!?"
Su Mei’s heart jolted, and her willow-like eyebrows furrowed. "This kid actually dares to show his face here again!"
"Master, see!? I knew he would come back!"
Zhu Wanning’s eyes immediately sparkled, and she rose to head outside, only to be pulled back by a pair of slender, jade-like hands.
"Master, you..." Zhu Wanning looked at her, stunned.
"You go wait at the Fairy Pool first. Let Master see what this kid is made of for you," Su Mei said, her eyes narrowing.
"How does Master intend to test Senior Brother Lin?" Zhu Wanning asked anxiously.
"You don’t need to worry about that." Su Mei drew herself up, her full red lips curving slightly upwards, revealing a bewitching smile. "Wanning, this outfit of yours, let Master wear it."

It turned out that after Lin Xiao received the notification from the steward of Phoenix Caw Peak, moving with strides that covered ten zhang each, he swiftly passed through the Sect Leader’s main hall and reached the adjacent Book Pavilion.
Thanks to his frequent visits to Phoenix Caw Peak under the guise of practicing dual sword techniques, he was quite familiar with the place.
Very quickly, he passed through several layers of illusory palace formations and smoothly entered the first floor of the Book Pavilion.
According to the steward, Zhu Wanning had specifically come here to wait for him.
Although he found it strange, Lin Xiao didn’t dwell on it and tentatively called out, "Wanning, are you in here?"
There was no response.
By now, it was late at night, and the Book Pavilion was pitch black.
As powerful magical wards were in place here, Lin Xiao couldn’t conveniently use Fire Techinque spells for illumination. He could only vaguely use the moonlight filtering through the window to navigate deeper into the Pavilion.
Soon, he spotted a graceful figure, robed in white like snow, standing before a wide bookcase.
"Wanning, I finally found you!" Lin Xiao was delighted and hurriedly approached.
However, the person remained silent and cautiously took a step backward.
They chased each other for a while, ultimately ending up still separated by a bookcase.
"Wanning, I admit I was wrong about today’s events. I came here specifically to give you an explanation!"
"Don’t worry! I, Lin Xiao, am definitely not an unfaithful man!" Lin Xiao declared with utmost sincerity.
"Hmph! You... you fall for every woman you meet! If that’s not you, who is? Such sweet talk!" The white-clad figure before him trembled slightly as she spoke, her voice laced with a hint of grievance.
"Hmm? Wanning, your voice... how has it changed a bit? Are you unwell?" Lin Xiao asked with some concern.
"No, no," the figure replied. "I was just angered by you!"
"Oh, oh, that’s good then." Lin Xiao nodded, feeling slightly relieved.
He peered through a gap in the bookcase and saw she still had her back to him. He couldn’t help but give a wry smile and say, "Wanning, do you remember? During those three months we were trapped in the Secret Realm, we often used to lean back-to-back like this, just without a bookcase between us."
"Looking back at that time now, it was quite boring, wasn’t it? Until later, when we gradually grew fond of... certain intimate things..."
"What!?"
Hearing this, the snow-white figure trembled violently, her voice shaking. "You... you boy... what are you saying? I don’t seem to understand?"
PFFT.
Lin Xiao couldn’t help but laugh. Towards this wife, with whom he had gone through the wedding rites and lived day and night for three months, he spoke without any shame or inhibition, "My dear Lady Wanning, has it really been so long that you’ve forgotten how you later ’seized the offensive’ and drained your husband dry?"
However, he hadn’t expected it.
The person’s reaction was even stronger than he had imagined!
"WOW."
She first let out a startled cry, then quickly said, "Details, details! You... tell me the details. I seem to... have forgotten some of it."
Lin Xiao was baffled.
They say women are tigers at thirty and wolves at forty. How old is Wanning? How did she become so... uninhibited? Lin Xiao wondered in surprise.
However, faced with her inquiry, his Formless Sword Body reacted with a surge of excitement!
Gosh, so you want to play these suggestive word games with your husband, do you? How very intriguing! Lin Xiao chuckled internally. Then, shamelessly, he began to recount all sorts of classic ’battles,’ from the grass by the river to the bed in the Blessed Abode, describing every detail from beginning to end!
If his words were overheard by outsiders, they would probably be mortified on the spot and brand him a vile pervert!
But the person he was facing now was his own wedded wife.
Not only was it harmless, but it might even add some extra spice to their interaction later on!
Seeing Lin Xiao gesturing animatedly as he painted a vivid picture with his words, the white-robed figure let out several gasps in between, appearing exceptionally thrilled.
Finally, she seemed somewhat abashed and mumbled, "Tsk, tsk. I never imagined that you, Chief Lin, would be... such a wanton man. Your Master truly misjudged you."
"Hmm?"
Lin Xiao paused for a second, then said with slight displeasure, "Wanning, we can say what we want between us, joke around as we please, but let’s not involve my Master."
"Oh, oh." The white-robed figure, so close by, nodded obediently. After a moment of silence, she said, "Alright, alright. That’s enough for tonight. You... you can go back now."
What the hell? We’re husband and wife! We were just having such a great time chatting, and now you’re telling me to just leave?
I might be able to bear it, but ’it’ certainly can’t!
The next moment, a smirk played on Lin Xiao’s lips. Steeling his resolve, he executed his movement technique, shot through the gap in the bookcase, and embraced the white-robed figure from behind!
