My Wife is A Sword God

Is the Teacher personally going into battle?

This was far beyond Qin Feng’s expectation, but what surprised him even more was the words of Dragon Clan’s father-in-law. 

“Could it be that the National Teacher cannot leave the Imperial City?” Qin Feng asked curiously.

Without hiding anything, Cang Zong said, “In fact, since ancient times, not only the National Teacher of Heavenly Tower, but even the Divine Guardian cannot leave the area within a thousand miles of the Imperial City.”

This was the first time everyone had heard such a statement.

Qin Feng recalled it carefully, and it seemed that this was indeed the case. 

In the ordinary people’s descriptions of the Heavenly Tower National Teacher and the Divine Guardian, the former had always been stationed at the Heavenly Tower in the Grand Literature Academy, while the latter almost always operated near the Imperial City.

Even the last time the Asura tribe attacked Imperial City, the Divine Guardian appeared within a thousand miles east of Imperial City.

Isn’t that exactly what the Dragon Clan’s father-in-law said?

Qin Feng pondered, “At the beginning, I felt strange that there were so few beings in this world who could step into the realm of transcendence.” 

“With the power of the National Teacher of the Heavenly Tower and the Divine Guardian, why not sweep through the Four Realms of Demons and Spirits and create an era of peace and prosperity for the human race?”

“Originally, it’s not that they don’t want to, but they can’t.”

In light of this, Qin Feng spoke up and asked, “Does the father-in-law know the specific reasons?”

Cang Zong shook his head, “No one in the world knows the reason, but the old man in the clan once speculated.” 

“Maybe the Heavenly Tower National Teacher and the Divine Guardian have something to guard, so they cannot leave the Imperial City.” 

“Of course, there is another saying that their souls have merged with Heaven and Earth within a thousand miles of the Imperial City, gaining unimaginable power, but at the cost of eternal freedom.”

“But no matter what it is, it’s just speculation. The only indisputable fact is that they cannot leave the Imperial City.”

“So I’m curious, why can the Heavenly Tower National Teacher join the army this time?” Cang Zong looked at Liu Tianlu, and the others also turned their eyes, waiting for an answer.

Liu Tianlu shook his head, “I only repeated what His Majesty said, and I don’t know the specific situation.”

At this moment, Qin Feng thought of something and muttered, “Maybe it’s the ‘Three Clears in One Breath’.”

Cang Zong suddenly realized, “I almost forgot, the Heavenly Tower National Teacher can perform the miraculous Immortal Technique of ‘Three Clears in One Breath’ by splitting himself into three. It seems that this time, it wasn’t the Heavenly Tower National Teacher himself who joined the army, but most likely one of his avatars.”

Meanwhile, Qin Feng immediately thought of Master Baili in Jinyang City, feeling a strong sense of intuition that the old man who joined the army was indeed that grumpy old man…

The group chatted leisurely for a while before gradually dispersing one by one.

As the crowd in the hall thinned out, Qin Feng stood up and prepared to go to the courtyard to cultivate.

Just then, Cang Feilan suddenly asked, “Husband, you’ll stay by our side, right?”

Qin Feng paused for a moment before smiling, “What do you mean? With the two of you waiting for me, where else would I go if not by your side?”

Liu Jianli’s lips parted slightly, “Husband, you should understand that Feilan isn’t referring to that, but rather the disaster in the southern region this time.”

From the time they met to getting to know each other and falling in love, they naturally understood each other’s character.

In the face of the disaster in the southern region, Qin Feng never stood idly by, but found a way to contribute his own strength.

But now, since they couldn’t accompany Qin Feng, they naturally hoped to keep him here so that he wouldn’t be in danger.

Qin Feng opened his mouth as if to say something, but he hesitated. From the eyes of the two women, he naturally understood their current feelings.

After a moment of silence, he smiled and replied, “You two, rest assured. Since Teacher is taking personal action this time, where would I have a chance to perform? Right now, all I want to do is witness the birth of the children in your wombs and hold them in my arms.”

As he said this, he placed one hand on Cang Feilan’s abdomen and pressed his ear to Liu Jianli’s stomach, as if he wanted to feel the movement of the two little ones’ lives in this way.

Liu Jianli and Cang Feilan looked at each other, not knowing what they were thinking.

…

As he left the lobby and entered the courtyard, he could hear the sound of wind breaking through the air.

Qin Feng followed the sound and looked around. The familiar place of training had long been occupied by his second brother. The latter waved the black knife in his hand, and his youthfulness had faded away. At this moment, he really looked like a master. 

Hearing the commotion, Qin An stopped what he was doing and greeted with a smile, “Big Brother.”

“I told you clearly that Bai Qui is at the Sword Dao Alliance’s martial hall. You haven’t gone to see her in the past few days, which really surprises me,” Qin Feng joked.

Hearing his brother’s words, the younger brother’s face turned slightly red. Then he rubbed the back of his head and said, “I was busy practicing, so I forgot about this matter. Besides, I don’t have the nerve to see her now.” 

Everyone wants to show their best side when they meet someone they like, but his father was too harsh and beat him until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, so naturally he didn’t dare to see him. 

“Does your injury still hurt?” Qin Feng asked worriedly.

“I applied the ointment that Big Brother gave me. It’s much better now. I feel like it won’t be long before the swelling goes down.”

“That’s good then.”

The two of them chatted for a while before the atmosphere suddenly fell silent.

After a moment, Qin An spoke again, “Big brother…”

“What is it?”

“Are we really not going to join in this disaster in the Southern Territory?” 

Qin Feng was slightly taken aback by his words, then became serious. “Have you forgotten the pain after the wound is healed? Do you not remember why Father beat you and me?”

“Over the past few days, I’ve been thinking hard, and I understand Father’s intentions.”

“This situation in the Southern Domain is anything but ordinary. It’s not something that just you and I can interfere with. Senior Zhen Tianyi sent you back to relay information, but isn’t it with the same intention?”

“Besides, Father has made it clear that no demons and ghosts can cause trouble at night with him around. There’s just no reason for us to worry.”

“We just need to stay in the Imperial City and wait for his triumphant return.”

Qin An’s expression became solemn. “Father is the Northern Ghost Head, and of course I trust his strength.” 

“But this time, even the existence of the Transcendence Realm has appeared. Father may be strong, but he’s only at the second-tier realm. What if he encounters this kind of opponent? How can he come out unscathed? If something goes wrong…”

Before he could finish, Qin Feng interrupted, “Second Brother, could it be that you’ve forgotten what we just heard in the hall? This time, the National Teacher of the Heavenly Tower is also on the expedition. Even if you don’t believe Father, you should trust the National Teacher.”

“The National Teacher has some plans. We’ll surely survive this disaster.”

“I hope so,” Qin An sighed, then asked seriously, “So, Big Brother, you’re not secretly going to the Southern Domain alone, are you?”

Qin Feng’s eyes twitched slightly as he replied, “Your two sisters-in-law are pregnant. Of course, I have to stay by their side. I’m not going anywhere. But you, are you hot-headed enough to want to go to the Southern Domain with Father to kill demons and ghosts?”

Qin An suddenly averted his gaze and wiped his long knife, “Rest assured, big brother. Since you and Father both said so, I won’t take any risks and make you worry.”

“So be it,” the two individuals, each with their own thoughts, looked away from each other.
