Chapter 618
“Hmm, I feel the same... Wait a minute.”
Li Mo thought for a moment and then felt something was off. “What about the others? Didn’t two vice leaders come along? Didn’t they notice this issue?”
“Nope. From what I’ve observed, most people in the Demon Sect haven’t been married or even considered it. They really don’t understand this aspect at all; many are still virgins.”
“...”
It made sense that those in the Demon Sect would struggle to find wives. It was reasonable.
“They can talk a big game about all sorts of theories, but I wonder where they learned it—from brothels or somewhere else?”
Huang Donglai chuckled as he spoke.
“?” Li Mo pointed at himself. “What are you laughing at? You’re one of them too.”
Huang Donglai: “??”
What does this have to do with me?
After a moment of silence, Li Mo composed himself and said, “So they agree with Luo Yexian, planning to strike while I’m in the bridal chamber? They completely overlooked the fact that an engagement doesn’t even include a bridal chamber ceremony?”
“Exactly. Li, why don’t you add that in at the last minute?”
“Sure.” Li Mo nodded.
He really decided to add some drama without hesitation, ready to play along.
But this couldn’t just be his decision; he needed to consult Bing Tuozi.
...
Meanwhile.
“Creak, creak...”
Xiao Qin had been in seclusion lately. After losing to Tang Liu not long ago, instead of feeling down, he realized his shortcomings and decided to seek answers in the library.
He hadn’t even had time to eat, just bringing along a piece of dry food.
At this moment, he was engrossed in reading while munching on his snack.
“Xiao Qin.”
“Hmm?”
Xiao Qin was startled, looking up to find an elder from the library frowning at him.
“Elder, what’s the matter?”
“The library needs to be quiet. Hurry up and finish eating; don’t disturb others.”
“Hmm?”
Xiao Qin blinked, instinctively glancing over at a nearby table.
And there he saw the ‘others’ in the library.
It was Ying Bing, along with Qin Yuzhi and Shang Qinqing. The former was scribbling something on a scroll, while the other two were chattering away.
“Uh...” Xiao Qin opened his mouth.
“Right, they’re talking, but discussing martial arts is fine.”
As soon as the elder finished speaking, the voices from the other table drifted over.
“Xiao Bing, do you know what happens on the wedding night?”
“Xiao Bing, do you know how babies are made?”
You could say one was the former leader of the Demon Sect, and the other was a former totem. They had a strange connection with the people from the Demon Sect in certain aspects.
“...”
Xiao Qin looked back at the elder.
“What are you staring at? The martial arts book in your hand has annotations from Xiao Bing. What’s wrong with her saying a few words?”
“What about Qin...”
“She’s a Grand Elder. I can’t control her; what if she gets me dismissed?”
---
In the library, Ying Bing was fixated on the scroll, appearing serious and aloof, though her delicate fingers were slightly curled around the book.
“Ah, you’ve come to the right person with that question.”
“But I didn’t ask, and who said that engagements... need a wedding night?”
Ying Bing’s study materials were all learned from a certain upright gentleman, so she didn’t know anything about this.
But she wasn’t naive either.
At that moment, Qin Yuzhi turned to Shang Qinqing beside her.
“Here’s the thing: an engagement means you have to have a wedding night! That’s how it’s always been done in our family.”
“No one knows more about wedding nights than I do. I’m the authority here; just listen to me.”
The goddess of marriage, Shang Qinqing, nodded seriously, her words filled with ancestral wisdom.
Well, although she was trying hard to manage her expression, the corners of her mouth were already betraying her.
So what if it goes against tradition? I want to see some action!
Ying Bing pursed her lips, as if she hadn’t heard anything, and continued flipping through the scroll.
But seeing her expression, Shang Qinqing and Qin Yuzhi exchanged glances.
“Xiao Bing, you two haven’t...”
“....”
Ying Bing still didn’t say a word.
But Shang Qinqing squinted her eyes and sighed in relief. “Not yet.”
“Hmm, her ears are turning red.” Qin Yuzhi didn’t need to observe closely; usually, Xiao Bing wasn’t like this, but it was obvious when the topic came up.
Hearing this, Ying Bing silently let her hair down over her ears.
“Since it’s your first wedding night, you must have no experience. As the goddess of marriage, I have the duty to educate you on the basics.”
“I know a thing or two about this as well and can offer some advice.”
Qin Yuzhi crossed her arms, looking like a seasoned veteran.
Alright, even though Old Qin hadn’t experienced it herself, she had certainly seen enough in her dreams to know a thing or two.
Shang Qinqing decided to start with the basics:
“First, you need to prepare a red string. The bride should...”
“Bind it up.” Qin Yuzhi interjected with a mischievous grin.
Shang Qinqing: “?”
This was touching on her knowledge gap; preparing the string was for hanging tokens of affection above the bed. Where did you learn to bind the bride?
Not understanding, Shang Qinqing continued:
“Then you drink the cup of wine together. Right, for the wedding night, you naturally need to prepare the candles...”
Qin Yuzhi chimed in, “Yes, choose the kind made from Hai Ling Lu; it burns at a low temperature, so if it drips on you, it won’t hurt, and it’s quite stimulating.”
Ying Bing: “Ah?”
The cold fairy rarely showed confusion, but given her past life as an empress, she had seen all sorts of scenes.
But this was something she had never encountered.
Shang Qinqing: “?”
The goddess of marriage was baffled but deeply shocked.
Where did you get this information? Is what you saw in your dreams even a proper wedding?
“Yuzhi, where did you learn all this?”
“In the dreams of the Supreme Emperor. He’s quite authoritative, right? Is there a problem?”
“...I didn’t expect...”
“I didn’t expect what?”
“Ahem, let’s talk about this another time.” Shang Qinqing suspected that the roots of the Hehuan Sect’s practices lay with the Supreme Emperor, but since he had been dead for thousands of years, she swallowed her thoughts about how ‘he was quite the lecher.’
“Your processes are a bit too advanced; just listen to me.”
“Alright.”
“Now we get to the important part, Xiao Bing, you must pay close attention. This is the most crucial aspect of the wedding night!”
Shang Qinqing squinted her eyes, raising a finger with significant meaning.
“That is how to have a baby!”
Little Mo clearly looked like a novice, and Xiao Bing seemed completely clueless about this. If they were to falter halfway, wouldn’t she have wasted her time today?
Such matters were not easy to discuss with men, so she could only guide Xiao Bing.
“Come closer.”
Qin Yuzhi was genuinely curious and leaned in, while Ying Bing didn’t move but could still hear clearly, as Shang Qinqing’s voice wasn’t quiet.
Qin Yuzhi’s face turned bright red. Despite her age, she had only seen the pig run and had never eaten any pork. At this moment, she recalled all those pigs she had seen.
After talking for a while, Qin Yuzhi suddenly froze.
Right.
If Qin Yuzhi had such a big reaction, why was Xiao Bing so calm?
Although they often slept together, she was sure she wasn’t mistaken; Xiao Bing was definitely inexperienced.
“Xiao Bing, did you understand?”
“I did.”
“Then why are you reacting like this... Did you not understand?” Shang Qinqing asked, puzzled.
Ying Bing tilted her head. “I know. It’s used to deal with Chui Bao. I’ve seen these in the childish learning materials many times by accident.”
“.....”
The words were clear, but why did they sound so confusing when put together?
What do you mean by ‘accidentally seeing it many times’?
Were you being intentional or just careless...?
What is learning, anyway?
“And what is Chui Bao... oh!~~”
Qin Yuzhi finally connected the dots.
Shang Qinqing felt a bit embarrassed: “So, Xiao Bing, is there anything else you don’t understand?”
“There is.”
“Like what? Tell me, I’m all ears.”
“It’s just... is it normal for clothes to get wet?”
Ying Bing had an expression as if she were untouched by the world, but the more she thought about it, the more her words sounded like they were from a wolf’s mouth.
“Ah?” Shang Qinqing was taken aback.
“What does getting clothes wet even mean... oh!~~”
Qin Yuzhi pondered for a moment, then suddenly realized, her face turning even redder.
“???”
Shang Qinqing cleared her throat. To be honest, she felt a bit of a chill and was also a bit angry.
Has Xiao Bing, so cool and aloof, secretly... opened so many new doors with Li Mo? How much have I missed out on? How infuriating!
