While my wife was being brutally tortured, my husband and I were constantly planning how to rescue them.
Initially, we only envisioned Pang Xing and his group as our enemies. However, after encountering the Nangong family in the mountains, we immediately realized one thing—Pang Xing and his group had many helpers. Even if we rescued my wife and the others, we wouldn't be able to achieve our goal alone.
After meeting the Nangong family, I appeared in male form and changed into normal clothes.
This was because everyone knew that it was Long Tianxiang, not Long Tianfei, who entered the ruins.
Among the Nangong family members, there was an elder at the peak of the Innate Realm, one of only two innate peak experts in the Nangong family.
There were also two middle-aged people at the late-stage of the Innate Realm, four young people at the mid-stage of the Innate Realm, and a teenager at the peak of the Acquired Realm.
The elder's name was Nangong Xiong, and he was nearly eight hundred years old, making him one of the most senior innate peak experts.
However, because he broke through to the peak of the Innate Realm very early, he still looked like a middle-aged man, about the same age as my father-in-law. When Grandma saw Elder Nangong, her gaze became somewhat shy. Later, we learned that it was Elder Nangong who cured her of the poison during her second attack of lustful afflictions.
The reactions of the crowd upon learning my identity varied. Elder Nangong was merely surprised by my talent; at such a young age, I was already a powerhouse on par with him, prompting him to sigh that a new generation was replacing the old.
The younger generation, however, had much more complex feelings towards me. Some were envious, some jealous, and some contemptuous.
The envy and jealousy stemmed from my power and my beautiful wives.
Because at least three of the ten most beautiful women in the martial world already belonged to me.
My wife, Yinyin, and the much-admired Sister Bai.
After Sister Bai separated from us, she didn't hide the fact that she was now my woman, and people knew that I was going to marry her.
If Sister Qing hadn't been destined to inherit the Cihang Jingzhai, she would have married into the Long family as well.
In that case, the envy and jealousy of me in the martial world would have been even greater.
I understood the reason for their contempt. A spineless coward who enjoyed being a cuckold, a slut willing to bend over and let others fuck his ass—such a man was almost destined to be despised.
What's more, I had committed one of the most abhorrent acts of righteous people—incest, and with my own mother no less.
While incest was despicable, only my father had the right to punish me. So, although they were disgusted, they said nothing; after all, it was a matter for the Long family.
However, after spending some time with me, thanks to my restored powerful charisma and charming smile, these naturally cheerful and kind young people accepted me.
Especially the youngest boy, the one at the early stage of the Innate Realm, who always surrounded me, calling me "Brother Long" this and "Brother Long" that.
I also liked this boy; his name was Nangong Jing.
Although I knew he wasn't as innocent as he seemed; he was a very lecherous little devil.
When we chatted, he always talked about his wife, Yin Yin, and Sister Bai, then said with a longing expression, "I wish I had a wife that beautiful."
I knew exactly what this little devil's intentions were. Another time when we were alone, I whispered in his ear, "You little lecher, if you ever come to see me again, I'll have your wives serve you."
After saying that, I looked at him with a teasing expression.
Having been discovered, he blushed deeply, but still happily whispered to me, "Thank you, big brother. I've liked Sister Yin Yin for a long time. If Sister Yin Yin really stays with me, I'll have my wife come to stay with you after I get married."
This little lecher always pretended to be an innocent virgin, but through my senses, I detected the images of at least three women on him, one of whom was a mature beauty who bore a slight resemblance to him.
She was probably a blood relative. The other two were a feisty older woman and a girl about his age.
This kid is definitely going to be a womanizer with many wives someday, but if he gets too caught up in it, it won't be good for his martial arts development.
When I told the boy my discovery with a mischievous grin, he blushed and begged me to keep it a secret.
Because the mature beauty who looked somewhat like him was his aunt, the feisty older woman was his sister-in-law, and the girl was his childhood sweetheart.
He planned to give me his childhood sweetheart.
He secretly told me that his aunt was still unmarried because she was a female pervert who loved seducing cute young boys.
Many of the young men in his family lost their virginity to her.
His sister-in-law had always doted on him. Once, when he was sick, he pushed away his sister-in-law who came to take care of him, and then she became his secret lover.
His older brother was very busy, and he had been helping his brother satisfy his sister-in-law for almost half a year.
Besides this kid, I also got along well with the others. Of the four young men, one couple was a couple, and the other two were brothers. They were all the boy's relatives; the couple were distant cousins, and the two brothers were his cousins.
From them, I learned that the boy was the youngest son of the Nangong family patriarch.
Because of his exceptional intelligence, he was cherished and pampered by all his elders, but he didn't become a spoiled brat.
Although he was somewhat lecherous, he had never done anything excessive.
A few days later, another group joined us.
They were from the Dongfang family, led by an elder at the peak of the Innate Realm.
They came in larger numbers, more than a dozen people.
Three middle-aged men at the late Innate Realm, six young men at the mid-Innate Realm, and nine men dressed as family retainers at the early Innate Realm.
They were very familiar with the Nangong family; the elder leading them, Dongfang Jin, and Nangong Xiong were even close friends.
He was very kind to Nangong Jing because Nangong Jing's childhood sweetheart was Dongfang Ling, the youngest daughter of the Dongfang family patriarch.
The parents of both families already knew about the couple's forbidden love, but they were quite happy, and the wedding date had already been set.
Such marriage alliances were common among the major families.
The purpose of the large group from the Dongfang family was to find their ancestral, peerless martial arts manual. When I heard the name of this manual, I almost laughed out loud—the *Sunflower Manual*.
I wonder if anyone would actually practice it if they found it.
After all, it's different from my Yin-Yang Transformation. Practicing it would prevent one from turning back into a man; one could only become a woman after reaching the highest level. Before that, one would be neither male nor female.
Judging from their reactions, they hadn't found it.
If they had found it, I wonder what they would think when they opened the manual.
