I Contracted All Ancient Divine Artifacts

Chapter 343: Chapter 242: Battlefield of Two Women Competing for a Husband

”Husband!”

Seeing Han Zhan, Nuannuan raised her hand inside, revealing a jade-like wrist.

Han Zhan was the second to turn his head.

The first was Gongyang Jin, whose eyes turned sharp the moment she heard a young woman’s voice from outside the door.

Han Zhan could even sense the sudden, rampant Sword Qi beneath Gongyang Jin’s feet.

”Who is she?”

Han Qiuming and Shan Yunmei, as Han Zhan’s parents, were stunned by this scene.

Is this still their foolish son?

Not only did he find a beautiful wife, but he could even balance two at the same time?

No, ”balance” isn’t the right word; it’s like a luxurious private yacht!

Gongyang Jin needed no introduction, tall and beautiful, her temperament as a Sword Cultivator gave her a competent feel, like a cool female general or boss.

This girl who claimed to be Xiaozhan’s fiancée, Nuannuan, was slightly shorter but more voluptuous, with an elegant charm in her light cyan gauze dress.

These two women would undoubtedly have countless admirers if they were outside.

Yet, their son had caught them both?

At this point, Han Qiuming looked at his son differently.

”Son, you’re even more impressive than your dad in his youth!”

”Hey, hey, hey, it hurts!”

Just as Han Qiuming finished speaking, his ear was pinched by Shan Yunmei.

”What kind of nonsense are you teaching? Xiaozhan, you need to sort this out yourself. It’s not our place to intervene.”

Shan Yunmei noticed the situation and quickly dragged Han Qiuming back to their room, leaving the three in the living room to their confrontation.

At this moment, under Gongyang Jin’s increasingly stern gaze, Han Zhan indeed felt like he was caught cheating.

Wait.

Why am I panicking?

I’m not really limited to just one wife!

Han Zhan suddenly realized, quickly wiping the sweat from his brow, and hurriedly stepped forward to grasp Gongyang Jin’s sword-wielding hand.

”Xiao Jin, she’s Nuannuan.”

Looking at the elegant woman entering the room, developed even better than me, and you’re telling me she’s that little loli Nuannuan?

I’d sooner believe you were Emperor Qin Shi Huang!

Gongyang Jin withdrew her hand from Han Zhan’s grasp, resting it on her sword hilt again.

”The bamboo grove, the bamboo grove!”

Han Zhan reminded her.

Only then did Gongyang Jin remember that Han Zhan had mentioned the bamboo grove after Nuannuan disappeared.

She almost forgot due to the passage of time and recent events.

”Didn’t you say she was trapped in the bamboo grove? How is she here?”

”That, you’d better ask her yourself.”

Seeing Gongyang Jin’s Sword Qi dissipate, Han Zhan felt relieved and turned to Nuannuan, asking:

”Didn’t you say you were sealed in the bamboo grove and couldn’t leave? How did you get here and find my home?”

A faint smile appeared on Nuannuan’s face.

She didn’t immediately answer Han Zhan’s question, instead pausing on Gongyang Jin.

”I sense a kindred spirit within you.”

”The only difference is, you’ve already awakened, and I’m still waiting to awaken.”

Han Zhan understood the meaning of awakening clearly.

To put it bluntly, it’s like inserting a key into a lock and turning it open.

And that key is Han Zhan—specifically, his SSS Level Talent, Divine Awakening!

After saying this, Nuannuan turned back to Han Zhan and said, ”I was indeed sealed in the bamboo grove. But how can you be sure you’re not in that ’bamboo grove’ now?”

As Nuannuan said this, Han Zhan was taken aback.

He hadn’t considered that possibility.

Nuannuan continued, ”The bamboo grove was just a metaphor I used to stabilize the anchor point. It could be a bamboo grove, or a sea, a desert, mountains. But often, it has another name—”

”Slaughter Battlefield.”

The Slaughter Battlefield, is the bamboo grove?

No, the Slaughter Battlefield, is the sealed place, where they are now!

”So, by clearing the Slaughter Battlefield, we can rescue you?” Gongyang Jin asked.

”Clearing the Slaughter Battlefield only allows one to leave here but won’t rescue me. To rescue me, one must completely unseal, which is what I meant by the ultimate solution.”

Han Zhan nodded. This information was something Nuannuan mentioned when they were in the bamboo grove, he knew that.

Nuannuan spoke as she took off her shoes, stepping gently with her jade-like feet and moving gracefully inside.

Because she wore a light gauze dress, under the light, the curves were faintly revealed.

Gongyang Jin tightened her grip on the sword hilt.

”Ahem.” Han Zhan coughed, taking out spare slippers from the shoe rack, ”Put on the shoes first, the floor is cold, don’t catch a chill.”

If she doesn’t put them on, my foot fetish will burst out of control!

Nuannuan obliged, putting on the slippers, allowing Han Zhan to breathe easily.

The last time they met in the bamboo grove was rushed, so they didn’t talk much.

This time though, Han Zhan could sense that Nuannuan was a bit teasing, seemingly keen on teasing him.

Perhaps it was because she had been sealed too long, missing social interaction.

”So, what is the ultimate solution, can you tell us now?” Han Zhan tried to steer the conversation back on track.

”Strictly speaking, that’s not the right term; I’d prefer to call it, the ultimate inheritance.”

”The ultimate inheritance?”

”That’s right, the Slaughter Battlefield exists to find an inheritor. Once someone receives the ultimate inheritance, the Slaughter Battlefield will disappear, and the seal will naturally be undone.”

Nuannuan’s explanation left Han Zhan and Gongyang Jin looking at each other.

The famed City of Extreme Evil and Slaughter Battlefield on Blue Star, merely a quest for an inheritor?

Isn’t that a bit too grand?

”Why didn’t you say this in the bamboo grove?”

”Before the Slaughter Battlefield opened, the seal was intact, preventing any related information from being shared. Now that it’s open, integrated into the battlefield rules, the seal’s strength weakened, allowing me to come here and share a bit.”

Nuannuan’s explanation was reasonable.

Han Zhan chose to believe her.

”Did you find us today to explain how to gain the ultimate inheritance?”
