Chapter 519 Chen Tianyang's Shock!
Chapter 519 Chen Tianyang's Shock!
Time flies, and a week has passed in the blink of an eye.
A study on the second floor of a villa on a hillside.
The red "Do Not Disturb" indicator light has been on for seven days and seven nights.
The atmosphere in the corridor was oppressive and subtle.
Bai Muxi stood at the door of the study, took a deep breath, and finally couldn't help but gently knock on the door.
"Thump, thump".
There was a moment of silence inside, then Lin Qiye's familiar voice, tinged with a hint of hoarseness and authority, came through:
"I am cultivating, please do not disturb me."
Hearing her husband's voice, though deep, was full of energy, Bai Muxi finally felt relieved.
"Yes, husband."
She responded softly, then turned and left.
However, the moment she turned around, her originally gentle face was instantly covered with a layer of frost.
Her gaze swept over the two new secretaries, Lin Yao and Zhang Wen, who stood at the end of the corridor, their faces filled with trepidation and anticipation.
At this moment, Bai Muxi finally realized what was going on.
I... I was actually used as a pawn by these two newcomers!
These past two days, the two new secretaries have been whispering in her ear, saying things like, "The deputy director has been inside for so long without any movement," and "Only if you, Madam, show concern will the deputy director not get angry."
Actually?
They wanted to use their own hands to test Lin Qiye's situation.
In this case, they are non-stick pans.
"How dare you use me..."
A surge of anger welled up in Bai Muxi's heart.
She has a good personality, but that doesn't mean she's stupid.
As the legal wife, if she doesn't even have this much authority, how can she maintain her position in this villa full of women?
However, she also knew that Lin Qiye was at a crucial moment in his cultivation.
If she were to make a scene and scold her subordinates outside at this time, and happen to disturb her husband, that would be a real sin.
So she walked up to the two women, gave them a cold look, and said in a cold voice:
"The deputy commander is currently in a critical period of cultivation."
"From this moment forward, no one is allowed to approach the study!"
"Anyone who dares to have any other thoughts and disturb the deputy commander's important business... don't blame me for being ruthless!"
After saying that, she didn't even look at the two women, turned around and went downstairs to check on the children.
Lin Yao and Zhang Wen exchanged a glance, but their expressions remained calm.
This so-called matriarch seems to be of very low caliber.
This is good...
……
Another week has passed in the blink of an eye.
For Lin Yao and Zhang Wen, these past two weeks have felt like an eternity.
They have been in this enviable hillside villa for a full two weeks now.
but!
Forget about receiving the legendary "gift" and "promotion," they haven't even seen the vice-commander once!
Every day, all I can do is stare blankly at that tightly closed door.
I heard that some of the older folks living in the neighboring courtyard have already developed bellies!
This is the deputy commander's mysterious power!
The two women were overflowing with disappointment and anxiety.
……
The sun was shining brightly that day.
Outside the gate of the hillside villa, a long luxury car slowly came to a stop.
The butler rushed into the living room to report:
"Madam! Elder Chen... Elder Chen has arrived!"
"And he brought Young Master Chen and Miss Chen with him!"
Bai Muxi, who was playing with the child, paused for a moment, then calmly handed the child to the maid beside her before slowly standing up.
Mr. Chen?
He actually came to visit me in person?!
……
The main entrance of the villa.
Chen Tianyang was dressed in a Tang suit and looked energetic, but there seemed to be a hint of fatigue between his brows.
Behind him, Chen Xuanyi and Chen Xuanxuan stood respectfully.
Chen Tianyang had just returned from the abyss not long ago.
Although he did gain some insights and improve his strength slightly during this trip to the abyss, he did not fail in the life-or-death battles.
However, there is still an insurmountable chasm between them and the legendary "Martial God" realm.
"Why……"
Chen Tianyang sighed inwardly.
"It seems that I have reached the end of the road by relying solely on the life-and-death trials in the abyss."
"Further in, and we'll reach the territory haunted by evil gods..."
Human strength has its limits.
Since that path is blocked...
In Chen Tianyang's mind, Lin Qiye's rocket-like advancement speed and his unique lifestyle would inevitably reappear.
After returning, Chen Tianyang found out that Lin Qiye had thirty or forty more women in his backyard, and his eyes nearly popped out of their sockets!
"A balance between work and rest...to encourage growth and development..."
"Could this be what they call conforming to the natural order, achieving harmony between Yin and Yang?"
"Perhaps having more children would actually be more conducive to understanding the origin of life, thereby breaking through constraints?"
Once this idea takes root, it's impossible to stop it.
So, after returning last week and resting for two days, he couldn't wait to learn from Lin Qiye.
But the message I sent disappeared without a trace, like a stone thrown into the sea.
If it were anyone else who dared to ignore him for a week, Chen Tianyang would have already lost his temper.
But the other party was Lin Qiye, whom he regarded as the "chosen one".
"He's probably in seclusion..."
Chen Tianyang wasn't angry. After finding out that Lin Qiye had indeed stayed at the villa the whole time, he decided to humble himself and personally bring his grandchildren to visit him.
It was both a visit and a verification.
……
Inside the living room.
Bai Muxi was still a little nervous and uneasy when she met the important figure from the star system in front of her.
"Elder Chen, I'm so sorry."
Bai Muxi had the best tea served and said apologetically:
"My husband... has been in seclusion for half a month and hasn't come out yet."
"this……"
Chen Tianyang was taken aback for a moment, then waved his hand and laughed:
"It's alright, it's alright."
"It's common for martial artists to go into seclusion, which shows that Vice Commander Lin is diligent."
"We'll just wait."
Chen Xuanxuan sat on the sofa, her hands elegantly folded on her knees, seemingly enjoying her tea quietly, but in reality, her gaze was subtly observing the hostess sitting in the main seat.
"This is Bai Muxi?"
She silently assessed the situation in her mind.
Although his features were regular, he could only be described as pretty; he would just be an ordinary passerby in a crowd.
"Whether it's temperament, cultivation, or family background, he's completely ordinary... or even somewhat shabby."
"I really don't know what good deeds she did in her past lives to be able to pick up such a huge bargain when Lin Qiye was still a hidden dragon in the abyss."
A complex mix of emotions welled up in Chen Xuanxuan's heart.
As the pride of the Chen family, she received elite education from a young age and has extremely high standards.
Regarding Lin Qiye's recent behavior of frantically expanding his "harem" and changing secretaries one after another.
Although she dared not say it out loud, deep down she despised it.
I think this is ridiculous.
but……
When this absurd behavior happened to Lin Qiye, the feeling of disgust was overshadowed by another, even stronger emotion.
It is a kind of worship and respect for the strong.
"He's so young, yet so powerful... he can even defeat an evil god..."
"For a man like that, having many women seems... perfectly natural, doesn't it?"
"Although he had so many women... he was quite affectionate and loyal to his wife who had shared his hardships. He did not abandon her after taking advantage of her, and even made sure she remained in the position of his legal wife."
"This is quite rare..."
Just as Chen Xuanxuan was lost in thought...
Bai Muxi was also observing the brother and sister, especially Chen Xuanxuan.
A woman's intuition is often frighteningly sharp at times like this.
Chen Tianyang, a half-step Martial God, personally came to visit, and even brought along these two grandchildren who were in the prime of their youth and were Lin Qiye's former classmates.
The implication is all too obvious.
"The grandson is for building connections, but what about the granddaughter?"
Bai Muxi looked at Chen Xuanxuan's exquisite makeup, her obviously carefully chosen fitted dress, and the subtle expectation in her eyes as she looked up at the study.
My heart sank slightly.
"Looks like... she's after her husband again."
"And this time, the one who came is the real young lady, the apple of the Chen family's eye..."
Compared to the previous secretaries who, although also from aristocratic families, were mostly sent as vassals, this was a significant improvement.
Chen Xuanxuan's weight is obviously much heavier.
If she enters the family... will my position still be so secure?
A bitter feeling welled up in Bai Muxi's heart, but she had to maintain a polite smile and even take the initiative to greet them:
"Miss Chen, please try this tea. It's Qi Ye's favorite."
"Thank you, sister."
Chen Xuanxuan smiled sweetly and accepted the teacup.
The word "sister" made Bai Muxi's eyelids twitch.
Just as the two women were each harboring their own thoughts, and the atmosphere seemed harmonious but was actually rife with undercurrents.
"boom--!!!"
suddenly!
An incredibly terrifying aura suddenly erupted from the direction of the study on the second floor without warning!
The aura was so strong that it even caused the entire specially reinforced hillside villa to tremble violently!
"What's going on?!"
Chen Xuan was so startled he almost jumped up, his teacup wobbling and tea splashing all over his hand.
Among them, Chen Tianyang, who was the strongest and had the highest cultivation level, reacted the most violently.
He suddenly stood up, his weathered tiger eyes now fixed on the direction of the second floor, his pupils contracting sharply, and an incredulous look of horror on his face!
