Playboy: Medical and Martial Master

Sun Zhe and Xia Shiqing’s engravings continued until after two in the morning before finally concluding.

Although Sun Zhe still had the will to fight, feeling he could battle another three hundred rounds, Xia Shiqing was utterly exhausted and swollen, having no choice but to cuddle and sleep.

The next day.

When Sun Zhe awoke in Xia Shiqing’s bedchamber, it was already past nine in the morning.

The moment he opened his eyes, he saw the exquisite Empress Consort at the dressing table applying makeup.

Her graceful jade body was entirely unclad; the two snowy peaks stood proud and full, the tips likely ravaged, now a deep red, yet still charming and alluring.

Sun Zhe sat up and joked, ”The Empress truly doesn’t see me as an outsider, does she?”

Xia Shiqing glanced faintly, ”Awake?”

”Mm... morning.”

Sun Zhe sat up, looking at the exquisite Empress Consort at the dressing table, his expression gradually turned strange, secretly comparing the contrast between her aloof serenity now and her wantonness last night, like two completely different people.

Yet, recalling last night’s madness, he still had lingering excitement.

If it weren’t for Xia Shiqing’s pleading for mercy at the end, he felt he could have fought until dawn.

”What, the Empress gets docile after just eight times?”

Upon hearing this, Xia Shiqing’s face flushed, looking at him with a grudge, ”You’re truly an ass.”

Sun Zhe laughed, ”The Empress overrates me.”

Suddenly, Xia Shiqing put down the eyeliner in her hand, got up, walked to the bed, indifferent to her bare form, and stared at Sun Zhe, ”Yesterday afternoon, I looked into some information, there’s a place with a high chance of finding Molting Clothes.”

Sun Zhe’s eyes lit up, ”Where?”

Xia Shiqing replied, ”The Outer Wilderness.”

Sun Zhe frowned slightly, ”Judging by the name... could it be a Spirit Realm?”

Xia Shiqing nodded, ”It’s a Spirit Realm but not one that belongs to our Earth.”

”What do you mean? If it’s not Earth, are there aliens?”

Xia Shiqing said slowly, ”This Spirit Realm exists between Earth and beyond, in a crack, not under any jurisdiction. Every ten years, the Outer Wilderness due to spatial loosening sees space rifts appear, two months later the space stabilizes and the rifts vanish.”

Sun Zhe listened, bewildered, ”So just going there means I can find the Molting Clothes?”

Xia Shiqing said, ”I can’t guarantee it, I just know there’s an Emperor’s Tomb in the Outer Wilderness, there’s a high chance the Molting Clothes will be inside. If found, just strip it from the emperor’s corpse.”

Sun Zhe curiously asked, ”Which dynasty’s Emperor’s Tomb is it?”

Xia Shiqing replied, ”It doesn’t belong to any dynasty in Hua Country’s history, it’s an emperor from beyond.”

”Ah, a wild emperor then,” Sun Zhe nodded, contemplating before asking, ”What do you mean by ’beyond’?”

Xia Shiqing explained, ”Simply put, it’s another world, a continent separated from Earth soon after the world’s creation, existing in another space.”

Continuing, ”The fairy worlds, heavenly courts, god realms in ancient myths probably refer to here.”

”And what your father has been guarding, is the gate connecting this place with Earth.”

Sun Zhe asked, ”Is beyond hostile to Earth?”

Xia Shiqing said, ”In the laws of heaven and earth, the strong dominate. If those immortals who fly and escape earth descend upon our world, what do you think would happen?”

Sun Zhe seriously replied, ”I don’t know for certain, but I can pretty much guarantee that our law and morality won’t hold any sway over them.”

Xia Shiqing said, ”That’s why your father’s task is to prevent immortals from coming to our world.”

Sun Zhe pondered for a moment, then asked, ”So when can I go?”

Xia Shiqing replied, ”Calculating, probably in about a month, each time a space rift occurs, Changwu Pavilion gathers martial artists to seek fortunes.”

Sun Zhe asked, ”Will people from beyond also come seeking fortune?”

”They will.”

Sun Zhe: ”Doesn’t that mean we’re delivering ourselves to them?”

Xia Shiqing said, ”The wilderness is divided by invisible space barriers, they can’t reach us, and we can’t reach them.”

”As long as it doesn’t go too deep, martial artists at the Nascent Soul Realm can walk sideways in this wilderness.”

She spoke while flipping her jade hand lightly, taking out a map from the Storage Treasure to hand to Sun Zhe, ”This is the map of the Outer Wilderness, with the location of the Emperor’s Tomb marked, you can try your luck then.”

Sun Zhe reached out and took it, ”All I can do is give it a try.”

Xia Shiqing continued, ”It’d be best to bring along the patient you want to cure, if you do find the Molting Clothes, using it in the Spirit Realm will have better results.”

Sun Zhe asked, ”Where will the space rifts in the Outer Wilderness appear?”

Xia Shiqing said slowly, ”There are many places where space rifts might appear, perhaps even on a bustling street, appearing and disappearing in a flash, high-altitude areas with dense thunderclouds are also likely.”

”Some planes suddenly disappearing, it’s likely they accidentally hit a rift in the clouds, being sent to another world.”

Sun Zhe nodded, noting that indeed the world is vast and full of wonders.

Xia Shiqing said, ”However, over the years, our Changwu Pavilion has figured out its patterns, it will appear outside Kyoto at Mount Qi, major Spirit Realms also have a high probability, the appearance rate is 90%.”

”Then I’ll wait in a Spirit Realm for the space rift to appear.”

Sun Zhe looked gratefully at Xia Shiqing, ”Anyway, thank you really, for your trouble.”

Xia Shiqing, expressionless, ”It’s actually just incidental, even without the Molting Clothes matter, I’d have sent you to the Outer Wilderness when the rift opens, maybe you’ll find some fortune.”

”My Spiritual Pressure Treasure Ring was found in the Outer Wilderness years ago.”

Sun Zhe laughed, suddenly throwing the quilt off, ”Even so, I still must thank you.”

The rich Yang Qi simmered under the quilt all night, and now that it was lifted, the intense energy instantly permeated the air, making Xia Shiqing’s pretty face flush, body and mind overheating.

She felt this pure Yang Qi was scarier than a fierce storm, almost no woman could withstand it.

”So how do you want to thank me?”

Sun Zhe said nothing but glanced downward, his meaning evident.

Xia Shiqing lightly retorted, ”Day after day, all you do is torment people.”

Eyeing that towering, steaming weapon, Xia Shiqing’s starry eyes turned hazy, an inexplicable sense of emptiness mixed with heat surging deep within her belly.

Sun Zhe stared into her eyes, ”Auntie, your makeup looks beautiful today.”

”Really?”

Xia Shiqing knelt on one knee on the bed edge, slowly crawling towards that steaming menace. When she got close, she raised a slender jade hand to tuck her fallen hair behind her ear, her freshly lipsticked lips slightly parted.

Sun Zhe watched her exquisite face draw nearer, feeling himself about to burst, suddenly reaching to press firmly down on her head.

”Mmph!”

”Ah——!”

”...”
