Chapter 27: Legend of Four Devils

"Damn, we could have smacked the other group as well. Look how much stuff we got," Wen called out in regret, counting all the goods they collected. "We got fifty-five Air Qi Upgrade Fragments and a whole lot of ID Cards. Not that bad for the first big skirmish."

"My Spirit said we need ten fragments to reach the First Refining. It’s just enough for all of us. Also, we can later transfer the Credits inside the ID Cards into our cards but we will have to get into one of the Safe Zones to create them," Yi explained.

Only Fate Spirits whose Fate Holders reached Heaven Realm at some point could later pass that knowledge to their future hosts. Fate Holders died but Fate Spirits lived forever, reincarnating into a new body every time their Fate Holder dies.

"Won’t we be hunted by that Hundred Islands Sect once they report to their Elders? It wasn’t hard to kill the youngsters with our skills but once the old dogs come out, it might be troublesome," Shan pointed out. "We should get going and find a place to refine those Fragments. We need to reach the standard of the Heaven Realm quickly to face anyone."

With just their previous battle as an example, it was apparent their Qi wasn’t on par. Even if their Skills and Arts were much more powerful, it was the Quality of the Qi that determined the winner in the end. With just a simple Air Qi shield they were able to defend against their attacks.

The girls were only able to kill some of them thanks to the surprise attack, taking them off guard.

"Honestly, it’s so stupid. We trained like crazy to master our abilities yet now we struggle to fight with some randoms because their Qi has slightly better quality," Wen complained as she distributed the loot. "And what’s up with all those horny virgins? They almost peed their pants when they saw us. Don’t they realize women like cool and confident men like Xuefeng? They will end up single forever."

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Wen sent multiple fireballs at the dead bodies, burning them all to hide the evidence before they were forced to leave.

As they departed from the place, using one of the maps they found, Wuying assured, "Don’t worry. Our work wasn’t in vain. Once we improve the quality of our Qi, there won’t be anyone who can beat us. The youngsters here have to go through the same process of cultivation as we did. The only advantage they had were better resources but the sheltered environment of the Heaven Realm doesn’t prepare them for the cruel life."

"I agree," Shan nodded. "Staying in the Safe Zone where no one can hurt them creates a weak mentality. When they depart outside they are like defenseless sheep. On the other hand, we are like wolves who already been through it all."

All of them nodded.

The whole system seemed good on the surface but it was ultimately flawed. If not for various Sects and Clans who trained their disciples and inserted old values into them, the whole Heaven Realm would be dominated by newcomers from other Realms.

"Wen, don’t compare Xuefeng with other men. They are not even worth a finger of him," Wuying scolded lightly as she hugged Wen mid-flight. She poked Wen’s side to which Wen counter attacked with her own tickle.

The other two joined and soon all of them attacked Wen, forcing her to submit.

"Haha, okay, okay, you are right!" Wen called out as she got away. "Xuefeng can’t be put in the same category as them."

"Xuefeng is one of the kind," Yi commented with a dreamy smile, fixing a strand of silver hair on her face. She rubbed the ring on her finger and added, "Should we search for Xuefeng or wait for him to find us?"

"I would say we should first improve our strength. Only when we are strong enough can we actively roam and search for him," Wuying replied, taking the leadership role once again. "It just sucks that none of us aside from Xuefeng was mastering arts from the Air Element else we would receive a nice boost."

Back in the Earth Realm, Wuying was the main battle leader together with Xuefeng. Being the Leader of their clan’s guards, Wuying knew very well how to manage others on a daily basis. It was an obvious choice for them.

"Who knows in which Land he is now? He could be on the other side of the Heaven Realm. If we try to forcefully search for him with our limited strength, we might have our fingers burned. You saw how people here react to us. I agree with Wuying," Shan supported fully.

"So I guess there is only one solution to get stronger. Murder and plunder! Sounds like a good plan to me!" Wen called out excitedly, raising her fist in the air and no one corrected her.

With just a single battle they ripped so many goods. If they wanted to improve fast and reunite with their husband, they were no other solution. Nothing else mattered.

"Let’s go! The legend of Four Devils will begin now!"

"See...? I told you they will be safe. Both of them calmed down in a few minutes. You don’t need to worry about them. They are strong enough to take care of each other," Tianshi assured happily as she cuddled into Xuefeng’s chest.

"I know, but I was still worried, ahh," Xuefeng muttered, sighing in relief.

Even though his wives rivaled him in strength, he still wanted to protect them all from any danger. That mentality was already imprinted in his mind and it was hard to fight it.

"I hated the separation so much but I guess it might be for the better... Not only will everyone become more independent but I can learn to fully trust in your powers. Maybe I also won’t worry while leaving you alone in the future..." Xuefeng thought out loud. It was his issue he tried to fix many times but his wives’ safety will always be a priority for him.

"It’s okay to worry. I would be concerned if you didn’t," Tianshi commented as she tilted his face and planted a sweet peck on his lips. "Let them grow individually. They will return stronger than ever. You will be surprised."

"Mhmm, I hope so," Xuefeng replied, kissing her back. "Let’s cultivate. We can’t be worse than everyone else when we all reunite."

His suggestion was met with a short protest as Tianshi hugged him tightly, kissing him on the neck as an invitation but Xuefeng’s drive to become stronger was currently higher than his sexual desires.

He lifted them, placing Tianshi on his lap and she immediately wrapped both her arms and legs around him.

Xuefeng was about to call her but she reasoned cutely, "I want to stay like this... Who said we should cultivate separately?"

"I can’t help but think about you like this... How will I focus?" Xuefeng questioned softly, his fingers unconsciously slipping down onto her bottom.

Tianshi’s unique charm was dangerous to his motivation.

"Call me selfish then..." Tianshi whispered, not moving at all as she pulled out one of the Water Qi Upgrade Fragments. "Less talking, more cultivating."

Xuefeng felt warm in his chest, embracing her as she pulled his own fragment.

"I love you..."

Ba-dum.

Tianshi’s stone on his wrist skipped a beat and that was enough for him.
