"Wait outside for a moment, I'll go in and have a look." Ye Shikai felt a bit helpless. After opening the door and going in, he was almost startled; Chen Yuxin was changing into her wedding dress, almost revealing most of her body. Her fair skin looked like an immaculate beauty. Although it wasn't the first time the two had seen each other this way, Ye Shikai felt an urge to look away, even wanting to turn and leave.
"Kai, why are you even shyer than me?" Chen Yuxin walked forward step by step, a smile across her face.
"Xin, you... you should quickly put on the wedding dress. Isn't it for fitting? How come it's not on yet?" Ye Shikai turned his head away and hurriedly said.
"A woman dresses for the one she loves. As we are one in marriage, everything of mine is yours, so naturally, I want you to see it." Chen Yuxin smiled and put on the wedding dress. Her movements were slow, seemingly wanting Ye Shikai to see every detail. Each movement was like a dance, full of beauty. Her slender limbs were pure and alluring, a deadly temptation for any man.
"Alright, I know you're beautiful. Anything you wear looks good. If there's nothing else, I'll head out first. There are outsiders waiting." Ye Shikai said calmly, about to turn and leave.
"Kai, wait a minute." Suddenly, Chen Yuxin stopped Ye Shikai.
"The zipper at the back seems to be stuck. Could you come and give me a hand?"
"This..."
"You certainly wouldn't want my body... to be seen entirely by another man, would you?" Chen Yuxin showed a troubled expression. Ye Shikai, helpless, had to walk to her back. Her willow-like waist swayed, matched with the pure white wedding dress, she looked like a fairy. Ye Shikai reached out his hand, held the zipper, and gently pulled it upward.
"It wasn't stuck at all. Why did you..."
Before Ye Shikai could react, he felt a cool sensation on his lips. Chen Yuxin had turned around at some point and kissed him.
"Kai, I love you." After a long while, their lips parted. Chen Yuxin gazed into his eyes, full of deep affection. The room was filled with tenderness. Ye Shikai was momentarily stunned. He wasn't particularly surprised; Chen Yuxin's love for him had always been intense, even a bit crazy. Now, with no one around, she, of course, would do this.
"Alright, I understand your feelings. Go ahead and put on the wedding dress. William is still waiting outside."
"Hmm, okay."
Four hours later.
"Lord Netherworld, Miss Chen's wedding dress style is finalized. I will personally deliver the final product in three days." Before leaving, William also presented both of them with a small gift, expressing his blessings for their marriage. Speaking of which, William already knew that Ye Shikai was remarrying, but due to their status, he still offered compliments.
"Alright, thank you for your efforts."
"I'll take my leave then."
Ye Shikai turned back into the house. After trying on so many wedding dresses, Chen Yuxin was quite exhausted. If not for being a cultivator, she would probably have been completely worn out.
"Kai, I received information about a ruin that's about to open. Come with me." Back in the room, Chen Yuxin suddenly brought up the matter, taking him by surprise.
"Ah... so sudden." Ye Shikai asked while sitting at the bedside.
"Actually, a few days ago, Chen Ruoya had already reported to me, but due to the wedding preparations, it got delayed. There's still some time before the wedding, so we can use this period to go." Chen Yuxin said.
"But... do you really have to go personally? You're pregnant now, and... didn't we agree that during the pregnancy, you wouldn't involve yourself in other matters?" Ye Shikai stepped forward to comfort her. He didn't suggest Chen Yuxin take the lead, given she's pregnant. As the family head, if it's not important, why should she personally handle it?
"Yes, every head of the family must do this. Besides, I heard this ruin is the tomb of a famous general from the Qin Country, Wu Anjun Bai Qi. It's a treasure. The head of the family must consider the family, that's why I'm insistent on going." Chen Yuxin explained.
When Bai Qi was mentioned, Ye Shikai's thoughts went to the title of "Human Slaughter." It's said that Bai Qi killed hundreds of thousands of surrendered soldiers, leaving desolation, feared by ghosts and spirits. He often appeared in movies and dramas, always as a formidable character.
If it's truly Bai Qi's ruin, it would be a grand spectacle.
Perhaps inside, there are many divine weapons or rare techniques.
"How about this; I'll go for you. After all, you're already expecting. It's unsuitable to have you lead people into such a dangerous place as a ruin." Ye Shikai had always been somewhat chauvinistic. Has anyone heard of having a pregnant woman go to work? Let alone exploring ruins, a dangerous task, Ye Shikai couldn't agree to it.
"No, I can't let you go alone." Chen Yuxin's attitude was equally strong. Ye Shikai was worried about her, and she was equally concerned about him. After some discussion, they decided they would explore Bai Qi's ruins together.
"Xin, you say this ruin is Bai Qi's, but is there any mistake?" Ye Shikai suddenly felt uncertain, even though the Chen family must have professional scouts, no one could give a definite answer.
"I'm not one hundred percent sure, but... we definitely need to check it out."
"Hmm, alright."
...............
The Chen family.
"Jeddon, it's been a great deal coming from a thousand miles away, thank you for the trouble." Chen Yuxin said lightly.
"At the Netherworld Empress's command, even if it means braving fire and water, I will execute it." Jeddon, with a calm demeanor, respectfully said.
"Very well, I've prepared a gift for you." Chen Yuxin waved her hand, and the attendant beside her carefully placed a large wooden box on the table.
"This is..."
"You'll know once you open it." Chen Yuxin smiled mysteriously and said softly. Jeddon, filled with curiosity, slowly opened the wooden box. As soon as he opened a slit, a beam of light shone out.
"This is... the Dragon Sparrow Saber." Even the typically composed Jeddon couldn't help but exclaim at this moment. The Dragon Sparrow Saber is a rare treasure, and calling it a divine weapon wouldn't be an exaggeration.
The Chen family is a notable family in Yanjing, and this saber was personally given by Chen Yuxin, so it couldn't be fake. Moreover, the power of such a rare treasure can even be felt.
"This saber... is yours now." Chen Yuxin said faintly. Jeddon suddenly stood up from the sofa, his hands so tense he didn't know where to place them.
"Netherworld Empress, this treasure is far too valuable, I can't accept it." Jeddon quickly refused.
"Last time, Ghost and the others, under the Moon God's instigation, tried to attack me. Fortunately, you informed me in time, or I wouldn't be standing here now. Therefore, you saved my life, and this is your reward."
