My Sexy CEO Wife

In the pitch-dark cave, three people were hiding: Gao Fei, He Hentian, and Duanmu Hong.

This cave had been hastily excavated and looked rather rough; its primary purpose was to block out the sun.

"Phew..."

Duanmu Hong let out a pent-up breath, "That was close just now; we almost saw the sun." While others wished to bask in the sun every day, Duanmu Hong was an exception, who would rather have overcast days forever, never wanting the sun to appear.

For someone to live like Duanmu Hong, it was indeed extraordinary.

"I'm neither human nor ghost now, hiding during the day and only daring to go out at night to get some air; it's truly pitiful and lamentable," Duanmu Hong said with a wry smile.

"Senior, don't worry too much," Gao Fei comforted, "We've now confirmed that the Myriad Buddhas Sect possesses a Defying Heavenly Level Spiritual Medicine. As long as we get our hands on that medicine, senior can dispel the deadly qi inside your body and greatly extend your lifespan, and then you won't need to fear the sun anymore."

"Senior, rest assured, we will definitely help you get that Defying Heavenly Level Spiritual Medicine!" He Hentian declared, thumping his chest.

"Mm," Duanmu Hong nodded, "This trip hasn't been in vain. Once it gets dark, we'll make our move, aiming to seize the Spiritual Medicine tonight." Saying this, Duanmu Hong glanced at Gao Fei, "And incidentally, we'll rescue your woman." In Duanmu Hong's eyes, snatching the Spiritual Medicine was the top priority, and saving people was secondary.

"Senior, you were truly awesome today! Absolutely incredible!" He Hentian lavished praise, "I'd like to take you as my master..."

"Stop right there," Duanmu Hong waved a hand, "Don't mention such things in the future; I'm not going to take disciples."

"But senior..."

"I'm tired, I'm going to rest."

"Senior, please reconsider. I'm sincerely proposing; if you take me as your disciple, I'll honor you just as I respect my parents..." He Hentian seemed ready to lay bare his heart to Duanmu Hong.

Duanmu Hong closed his eyes, no longer paying attention to He Hentian.

"Senior..." Before He Hentian could speak further, he was pulled aside by Gao Fei, who received an annoyed glance from He Hentian, "What are you pulling me for!"

"Keep it down; don't disturb senior's rest," Gao Fei said in a low voice, "Do you really want to become a disciple that much?"

"Of course, I'm serious. I've never been this earnest in my life."

"Your timing is off."

"What's wrong with it?"

"We didn't manage to seize the Defying Heavenly Level Spiritual Medicine today, so senior must be in a foul mood. In this state, how could she possibly take you as a disciple?"

"Eh? You make a good point."

"You need to be patient and wait for the right moment when senior has the Spiritual Medicine, and she's in a good mood. Then when you ask to be her disciple, your chances of success will be much higher."

"Yeah, you're right, I was indeed too hasty," He Hentian nodded.

Gao Fei patted He Hentian on the shoulder, "Patience is a virtue, don't be impulsive. Alright, it's getting late, we should rest now. We have a big operation tonight."

Under Gao Fei's persuasion, He Hentian finally calmed down and stopped clinging to Duanmu Hong to become a disciple.

...

Time flew by unnoticed... and it became dark.

"Move out!" Duanmu Hong stood up and left the cave.

Gao Fei and He Hentian hurriedly followed.

It didn't take long before the three of them arrived at the gate of the Myriad Buddhas Sect.

"Yo-ho!" Gao Fei laughed, "The opponent had long anticipated our arrival, so they have prepared themselves well." A large group of monks, led by Abbot Xuan Si, had gathered in front of the Myriad Buddhas Sect's gate.

"Is being well-prepared of any use? Absolutely useless!" He Hentian said disdainfully, "Once Senior Duanmu makes his move, all the monks on the other side will be scared stiff."

Duanmu Hong remained calm, saying nothing.

Abbot Xuan Si's face darkened, "I just knew you would come back! You three daredevils, today will be your end!"

"Die, your old mother." He Hentian cursed loudly, "You bald donkey, I can see a dark aura around your forehead, your eyes deeply sunken. You're in for a disaster of blood in the coming days. If you want to save your own life, kneel down and kowtow, calling me grandpa, and then I'll tell you the solution."

"Utter nonsense!" Abbot Xuan Si, trembling with anger, said, "What an absurd notion!"

"What? You don't believe it?" He Hentian smacked his lips, "Let me tell you, when I was young, I encountered a master who gave me a book. You know what it was? It was a book on destiny, vast and profound, incredibly arcane. It took me decades to understand it, and slowly grasp its concept. Over the years, I've divined for many people, always with remarkable accuracy, not once making a mistake... I was given a nickname, Crane Half-Immortal; I know half of what happens in the heavens and everything that happens on earth... You bald donkey, I'm giving you a fortune-telling for free, not asking you for a penny, yet you still don't thank me and even scold me? That's really low-class, too low-class."

Gao Fei, standing to the side, couldn't help but twitch his face, inwardly saying: He Hentian can really boast! The king of bragging!

Even Duanmu Hong turned his head to glance at He Hentian.

"I'm so angry! Truly, you're driving me to my grave!" Abbot Xuan Si's face turned ashen, his body shaking uncontrollably: "How can there be someone as shameless as you in this world!"

"Even if I am shameless, I'm still more respectable than you," He Hentian snapped back.

"You..."

"What 'you'? Am I wrong? You bald donkey!"

"I..."

"What 'I'? I'm giving you a free fortune-telling, you should be thanking me! That's the bare minimum courtesy, got it? You bald donkey!"

"Ah..."

"What's with that noise? If you have something to say, say it properly; no need to wail! You bald donkey!"

He Hentian, with a bald donkey here and a bald donkey there, cursed so fluently that while He Hentian was having a blast, Abbot Xuan Si was infuriated.

"Shut your mouth!" Abbot Xuan Si roared loudly, "You, with your nonsense and incessant babble, you jerk!"

"Just because you tell me to shut up, I should? Who do you think you are? Why should I listen to you?"

"You jerk!"

"You're the old jerk!"

"You... you..."

"Living the way you do, you're just wasting time, air, and emotions; you might as well dash your head against a block of tofu and be done with it. It's nothing but an embarrassment! Oh, right, I heard that you secretly keep over a dozen wives? All young girls in their teens? Oh dear, that's not going to work. You're a high monk, a disciple of the Buddha. How can you secretly keep women? And they're a bunch of underage girls at that. If Buddha knew about this, he would be furious."

"Nonsense!" Abbot Xuan Si, eyes bloodshot, bellowed, "Since the day I took my vows, I've severed all emotional entanglements and never thought of women..."

"Enough, stop pretending," He Hentian curled his lip, "We're all men here, I can understand the difficulty you're facing. Although you're quite old, the needs are still strong. It's understandable to slip up occasionally. A real man owns up to his actions; since you did it, don't deny it."

"I never did such things..."

"Enough, no need to explain. It's natural for a man to seek a woman. I understand."

"I..." Abbot Xuan Si was so angry he was at a loss for words.
